Chapter 20: Superior is a Cheating Scumbag(1)

After a busy morning in the company, Gu Li was finally able to have a good rest during lunch time. She ordered curry beef fried rice at the company canteen, then sat and ate with Zhao LiLi, her colleague from the same department.

Zhao LiLi and Gu Li entered the company at the same period of time. As they were both around the same age, they quickly became good friends and colleagues that supported each other at the workplace. Zhao LiLi was lively and cheerful, unlike Gu Li, who was quiet at times. Once someone started a conversation, she would talk non stop. Although she was mischievous, in a fast-paced office environment, it was necessary to have someone to promptly adjust the mood.

"Hey~ Gu Li. I saw that you entered a high-end residential area with Lin Feng yesterday. What's up? Are you guys cohabitating?" Zhao LiLi scooped a spoonful of plain rice from the bowl, dished up a pork rib, and chomped on it while she talked.

Gu Li did not stop to look at Zhao LiLi beside her. She was composed like a pure feminine beauty and held up a bowl of pig bone soup to drink. Although she seemed calm on the surface, her heart was actually thrown into a tempestuous sea.

Zhao LiLi thought it was tacit agreement when she saw Gu Li remain silent: "You two are progressing quickly! When do you plan to get married?! Hahaha..." The other colleagues followed along and teased Gu Li.

Gu Li gave Zhao LiLi a small pinch and said: "Eat your meal properly." After she spoke, she cleared the table of her bowl and chopsticks and brought it to the tray return station, Zhao LiLi made a funny face behind her: "Being shy doesn't mean you can pinch me!"

"Hahahahahaha...hurry up and eat! Teasing Li!" The rest of the colleagues chimed in with laughter.

Gu Li's colleagues thought she was shy because they teased her about Lin Feng. Actually, Gu Li felt hurt... It was just like being tossed into the sea without any warning; she continued to sink deeper and deeper. The salty sea water entered her nose, pouring into her lungs and stomach... However, she was already numb to that kind of suffocating pain... She no longer wanted to struggle against it...

Last night, she wasn't with Lin Feng. Therefore, the one with Lin Feng couldn't possibly be her. Since Zhao LiLi had seen wrongly and had mistaken it for her, that meant that the other party was a woman, it was just that the woman was not Gu Li.

Throughout the whole afternoon, Gu Li tried very hard to convince herself that it was just a misunderstanding. Lin Feng would not meet up with another woman behind her back. Perhaps they were nothing more than just business partners... But "high-end residential area" contradicted that... What type of business matters needed to be discussed at home? No matter whose house... With just a man and a woman together...

Gu Li patted her face with both hands in an attempt to cheer herself up and continued to strive hard at work.

"Gu Li, our department is going to grant some funds. This is the bill." The department lady pursed her lips and passed the form. After Gu Li received it, she nodded her head and indicated that she understood. After that, she entered the important information on the form into the computer file. She stood up and looked for Lin Feng. It was quite a large amount of funding, it was not an amount that the department staff could approve of as they pleased. She needed to get Lin Feng's approval before she could grant funds.

She knocked and opened Lin Feng's door, only to discover that Lin Feng was not in the office. She asked a nearby colleague, and she replied: "Section head did not go out today. I saw that he just left. Maybe he was too cooped up and went to the rooftop to smoke."
