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."

She's Playing Hard to Get

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Yu Heng was sitting in his office. When he saw the HR manager come back, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

"President Yu, Miss Hai handed in her resignation letter and told me to go through the process." The HR manager was helpless. What was going on?

"Didn't I tell you not to let her resign?" Yu Heng frowned.

Seeing that Yu Heng was not satisfied, the HR manager hurriedly explained, "It seems that Miss Hai had a conflict with her department head. Miss Hai also said that ever since she came to work, everyone laughed at her and insulted her. She endured it all for your sake, but everyone has a temper. I think she might not be willing to endure it anymore, so…"

The HR manager threw the blame on the other colleagues.

"Can't she just endure it a bit more? Who was she trying to show off to by making such a big fuss?" Yu Heng slapped the table and said angrily.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Maybe she's just playing hard to get. She just wants to make you anxious. She loves you so much and has been pestering you for so many years. How can she leave just because of such a small matter?"

Gong Lu said casually. In his eyes, Hai Tang was someone who could not live without Yu Heng. How could she give up just like that?

This was clearly to see what Yu Heng thought of her.

"If you ask me, you should just approve it directly! Anyway, it's quite annoying that this woman keeps pestering you." Gong Lu threw the pen to Yu Heng. "She will definitely come back and beg you."

"Is that so?" Yu Heng also felt that Gong Lu was right, and his anger subsided slightly.

Hai Tang loved him so much. It was impossible for her to want to leave for no reason. Could it be that someone had said something behind his back?

Yu Heng was very confident in Hai Tang's feelings and love for him. Could it be because of Hai Yuan?

Yu Heng waited in the office for the whole morning. When it was about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, he realized that Hai Tang had not come up to look for him once. He was even more annoyed.

He called Hai Tang's office phone.

"Come to my cabin." As usual, Yu Heng ordered Hai Tang.

Hai Tang laughed at herself. What was she expecting? She clearly knew that she was a bootlicker and a tool in Yu Heng's eyes, but she still felt sad.

"Are you approving my resignation application?" Hai Tang asked, but Yu Heng directly hung up.

Her meaning was very obvious. No matter what she wanted to do, she had to go to Yu Heng's office.

When she arrived at Yu Heng's cabin, Hai Tang entered and found Gong Lu sitting inside.

Gong Lu was a playboy who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun. He would usually come to Yu Heng's office when he had nothing to do.

"Why are you suddenly resigning? Didn't I agree to your leave? When did you become so irresponsible?" Yu Heng frowned and asked unhappily. "You're not that kind of person. Besides, I still have many important projects for you to take charge of. If you..."

Before Yu Heng could finish, she interrupted, "President Yu, I believe that the other colleagues in our department are just as capable. Thank you very much for your kindness. It's just that I have other pursuits. I can only say sorry for your arrangements for me, President Yu."

Hearing Hai Tang's words, Gong Lu immediately burst into laughter.

"This is hilarious. You're still putting on a show. Don't you just want to know if you're in Yu Heng's heart? Why? Are you only satisfied if he begs you to stay? Don't be arrogant. That's not good. You have to know that Yu Heng is already giving you face by being willing to talk to you like this."

Gong Lu's face was filled with disdain. He wanted to tear apart Hai Tang's disguise and see her lower her voice again.

"Why didn't you come to work yesterday?" Yu Heng did not help Hai Tang. Usually, Gong Lu also spoke like this. He did not think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he felt that Gong Lu treated him as a brother and was considering him personally.

Although Gong Lu had made it sound a little serious, who asked Hai Tang to go so far? Even if Gong Lu scolded him, it was only right.
