The Foster Daughter’s Attraction

"Hai Tang? She's just the Hai family's foster daughter. I was only playing around with her. How could I possibly take her seriously? She can't even measure up to my status!" Upon hearing these words from Yu Heng's own mouth, Hai Tang finally realized how he truly saw her. She had liked this person for over twenty years. They had grown up together since childhood, with her always looking out for him, from running errands and doing homework for him to handling company affairs on his behalf. He had always accepted her kindness but pretended to be unaware of her feelings. Now, the words from his lips directly crushed Hai Tang's hopes. From that day on, Yu Heng's shadow completely disappeared. Even his friends around him were surprised. How could she let go so easily after following him for so long? At first, Yu Heng was nonchalant. In his eyes, Hai Tang's world revolved around him, and she wouldn't be able to survive without him. But as time went on and he waited, she never came back. When he started to panic and wanted to look for her, he realized that he couldn't find her, no matter how hard he looked. When they met again, his shadow was already entwined with someone else, and she had a radiant smile on her face. Yu Heng's reddened eyes were filled with tears as he asked the girl who used to belong to him, "Tangtang, I was wrong. Can we go back to the way things were?" Before the girl could speak, the man beside her stepped forward. His eyes filled with malice as he said, "I advise you to stay away from my wife."

Hai Tang turned her head awkwardly to look at the scenery outside the window. Suddenly, she realized that the road was a little unfamiliar and quickly reminded him, "Uhm, my house is in that direction."

"Hmm? Since we're already married, we should live together." Gu Yun said firmly.

Otherwise, what was the point of him scheming to marry Hai Tang? If he let Hai Tang live alone, wouldn't she not see him if she wanted to? Moreover, he couldn't defend against Yu Heng.

"But I haven't moved my things yet..." Hai Tang was conflicted.

Gu Yun glanced at her. "I've already asked someone to help you move. Come back with me. Everything will be settled."

"Alright then…" Hai Tang had no excuse and could only accept the fact that she was about to live with Gu Yun.

Before going to bed, Hai Tang carefully drew a line between herself and Gu Yun. She slept on the left side of the bed, far away from Gu Yun.

Perhaps it was because she had been busy all day, but Hai Tang quickly fell asleep.

However, the next morning, Hai Tang found herself waking up in Gu Yun's arms.

She clearly remembered that she had deliberately kept a distance of at least 50 centimeters from Gu Yun when she was sleeping. She was afraid that she would accidentally touch Gu Yun.

Although the two of them were already married, she had only done such a crazy thing with Gu Yun after she was drunk. She would never do it when she was sober.

Who would have thought that she would be so dishonest in her sleep? She actually pressed her legs on Gu Yun's legs. Not only that, she even gave Gu Yun a bear hug and buried her head in Gu Yun's neck.

She had just moved slightly when Gu Yun opened his eyes. With a smile on his face, he said in a lazy and magnetic voice, "Morning!"

"M-morning…" Hai Tang let go of Gu Yun in embarrassment. She got up from the bed and ran to the bathroom to wash up.

When she came out, Gu Yun had already changed his clothes.

"Didn't you say you were going to resign? Why are you going to work again?" Gu Yun was a little worried. If Hai Tang went back on her word the moment she saw Yu Heng, then would the results of his hard work for so long be cleared?

He wasn't afraid of starting over. At most, he would just keep pursuing Hai Tang, but what he cared about was that Yu Heng was a scumbag. It wasn't a good thing for Hai Tang to be obsessed with him.

"The head of the HR department said that I should go through the resignation process and that I must hand over all the projects in my hands. I thought that a person really has to have a beginning and an end, right?" Hai Tang's thoughts were very simple. She had already treated Yu Heng as a past tense. The purpose of going back to the company now was just to resolve the matter of leaving her job.

"Then I'll send you there." Gu Yun nodded.

The two of them went out together. Gu Yun drove Hai Tang to the company building and watched her go upstairs before leaving.

After punching in for work, Hai Tang walked to her seat and sat down. The surrounding colleagues were very surprised to see Hai Tang there.

Hai Tang usually worked from morning till night, even during lunch break. She was a workaholic.

Moreover, Hai Tang's work performance was also the best. It could be said that more than half of the company's orders were due to Hai Tang.

Thus, many of them were envious and jealous of Hai Tang.

"Hai Tang, why didn't you come to work yesterday? Yesterday, the supervisor was furious. He said that if you didn't come, you wouldn't be able to submit the project. He even complained to President Yu."

Many people in the company knew that Hai Tang loved Yu Heng and had been pestering him.

"Oh, I went to get married." As Hai Tang spoke, a blissful smile inadvertently appeared on her face.

"What? With whom?"

"Don't tell me you're with President Yu? That's impossible. President Yu was in the company all day yesterday!"

"Hehe, did you get married in a flash because you couldn't woo President Yu?"

Hai Tang smiled gently. "It's nothing like that. I just felt that I was too stupid before and fell in love with a scumbag. Now that my mind is clear, I know who really loves me, so I got married."

Previously, she was willing to endure any grievances for Yu Heng, but now she knew what it was like to be someone who really cared about her.

Ignoring everyone's probing gazes, Hai Tang turned on her computer and typed the words "Resignation Application" on it.
