Masked CEO

“Yes!” she nodded forcefully, then said indignantly: “How could they do this? When you were successful, they fawned over you, flattering you to the point of disgust. Now that your career is gone, they mock you. What trash!”

“The business world has always been like this,” he hoped she would understand and stop feeling sad for him.

“I know the business world is realistic.” The Tang family’s business was now managed by the steward’s son, Fang Peng, who had always been like a brother to her. So although she wasn’t in the business world, she understood that few people would help in difficult times, but many would add glory to success. “But they mock you, make things difficult for you, reject you, and even ridicule you… I just feel heartbroken!”

“You…”

Just one sentence about feeling pain for him, and Chu Fantian’s heart was shocked again.

Such a frank and genuine woman! What was he to do with her?

He had always been free and had never thought his heart would stop for any woman, but Tang Keshan made him feel the first impulse to want to stop.

She cried a little more because she felt indignant and sad for him.

“I’m not drowning my sorrows…” Ah! Sometimes men drink without any particular motive! How could she understand? “It’s because you kept crying, and I didn’t know what to do, so I drank a few more cans.”

“Chu Fantian, in front of me, can you stop being so stubborn? This is so hard. If you feel despised, my shoulder is available. If you want to cry, it’s okay. I won’t laugh at you.”

Is this her thought? Was he being stubborn?

“No need!” he said faintly.

“But…”

“Are you done crying?”

“Uh…”

“Go home once you’re done crying.”

He wasn’t actually trying to drive her away, but… he had an impulse to hold and comfort her. But he knew that if he held her, he might lose control.

“No!” she interrupted, shaking her head like waves. “I can’t go home. I want to stay and help you.”

“Help me? Help me with what?” he didn’t understand.

“Of course, to help you deal with those dog-eyed people who bully you.”
