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."

"I got married." Hai Tang said lightly.

She knew how much Yu Heng's good brothers looked down on her. She also understood that the reason why her colleagues bullied and isolated her was precisely because of Yu Heng's contempt and disdain.

If Yu Heng really cared about her feelings, the people around him would not insult her so unscrupulously.

"What?!" Yu Heng was shocked and only reacted after a long time. He asked in disbelief, "Say it again. What did you say?"

"I got married." Hai Tang laughed. "President Yu, why are you so agitated? I'm the one who got married, not you."

"Who allowed you to get married?" Yu Heng felt that Hai Tang must be joking. Hai Tang clearly liked him some time ago. How could she marry someone else so quickly?

"If you're not satisfied with your work, just say it. There's no need to joke around like this." Yu Heng was unwilling to believe this reality, and his expression became flustered.

When Hai Tang noticed his funny expression, she was immediately amused. "I'm really married. Please sign it. After all, I don't want my husband to misunderstand anything."

Under Hai Tang's insistence, Yu Heng could only angrily snatch the pen and sign on the paper.

As for what Hai Tang said, Yu Heng didn't want to believe a single word.

Taking the document, what surprised Hai Tang was that her resignation application was rejected.

Yu Heng gritted his teeth and said to Haitang, "It's impossible for you to leave. I definitely don't believe that you're leaving me for the sake of marriage unless you show me the evidence. If you want to rest, I can grant you a day off."

With that, Yu Heng glared at Hai Tang. He did not like this feeling. In the past, he could control Hai Tang at will, but now this woman had suddenly escaped his control.

What gave this woman the courage to resist him and her wings hardened?

"Oh." Hai Tang couldn't be bothered to say too much to him. She knew that Yu Heng hadn't escaped from her sincere love for him.

He thought that she was still the same as before, able to come and go at his beck and call.

Hai Tang took the piece of paper and turned to leave. She knew that it would take a long time to make Yu Heng relent, but she had a way.

After returning to her desk, the supervisor saw Hai Tang and asked unhappily, "Didn't you say you were leaving? Why are you back?"

"President Yu rejected my resignation application. I'm really sorry, supervisor. It seems that we have to bear with each other for a while." Hai Tang said with a fake smile.

Hai Tang was willing to speak nicely to them before purely because of Yu Heng. She did not want to cause unnecessary trouble in the company and make Yu Heng unhappy.

Now, she didn't even care about Yu Heng. Why did these people continue to make fun of her? She did not want to be bullied like before.

She had always done her work perfectly. As for her private life, she had always been clean and honest. No one could find fault with her.

She didn't do anything that angered the people. If Yu Heng really hated her approaching him, he could have asked her to leave. He could have even said that he didn't like her and asked her to get lost.

Unfortunately, Yu Heng enjoyed her flattery and love but pretended to be pestered and unable to bear the illusion, making everyone think that she was shamelessly pestering Yu Heng.

Now that Hai Tang's mind was clear, she felt that she had been very stupid in the past. The biggest mistake in her life was falling in love with Yu Heng.

Back then, she was really blind. Hai Tang thought that Yu Heng would become a dark history that she did not want to mention in the long years to come.

"You! You must have used some flattery to make President Yu not let you leave. I knew you wouldn't leave so easily. Stop pretending!" The supervisor was so angry that he cursed at Hai Tang.

However, Hai Tang was used to hearing these curses, and it could not hurt her at all. "Alright, then please go and persuade President Yu to fire me. I can't wait."
