She remembered that there was a medicine box at home, which she had prepared beforehand and kept in the cabinet upstairs for emergencies. It was finally coming in handy now. Looking at the wound, she knew it needed disinfection to prevent infection, but she didn't have the money to go to the hospital.
She found the medicine box and opened it, and a strong medicinal smell hit her nose. It was filled with various medicines. She looked at the wound under her neck in the mirror and could see the tender red flesh inside. Just looking at it made her feel pain. She bit her teeth, closed her eyes, and applied the alcohol-soaked cotton swab directly to the wound. The burning pain spread throughout her body like an electric shock, and she gasped for cold air, feeling a chill run down her spine.
After carefully wrapping the wound with gauze, she took a deep breath and a hint of endurance flashed in her eyes. If it weren't for Shi yu, why would she tolerate her? Wasn't it because she was Shiyu's mother? Maybe she really cared about her son, which made her overly biased.
She sighed softly. She didn't have the energy to care about this matter. After all, he was still an elder. Looking at the wrapped wound, she sighed again. She felt sad and helpless. The Tang family had nothing left. The villa she lived in was left to her by her mother. Otherwise, she wouldn't even have a place to live. It was impossible for her to live with Mo Jin. He had swallowed up the Tang family and threatened her with her parents' lives to force her to marry him. Otherwise, she would have been Shiyu's bride by now. He hurt her for his own benefit, and she could bear it, but he deliberately targeted her weakness and hurt Shiyu by making him gamble and owe a huge debt. She would never forgive him for that.
She really wanted to completely stay away from such a terrible person as Mo Jin, but she couldn't. Not to mention the debt, she and Mo Jin were still legally married. How could she escape? Lying in bed, Tang Yutong tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She felt anxious at the thought of facing Mo Jin's face tomorrow.
She had a premonition that if she went to Mo Jin's company, this guy would come up with some way to torture her, and she might accidentally fall into the trap he had dug long ago. She could only be careful and deal with it as it came.
Unable to fall asleep, she sat up with the light on and glanced at some magazines. Soon, drowsiness overtook her and she fell asleep.
The next morning, she got up, washed her face, put on makeup, and changed into a stiff work uniform. Today, she was going to interview at Mo Jin's company, just to go through the motions. She hoped that the interviewer wouldn't be Mo Jin himself. Even if it was his assistant or interviewer, it would be fine. If it was Mo Jin, there was probably no good outcome.
Her only thought now was revenge and paying back the debt.
Mo Corporation, office building, CEO's office.
Mo Jin stood with his hands behind his back, looking out the floor-to-ceiling window at the bustling city below. Shadows fell on his handsome face, and at the moment, his face was calm, with various emotions mingling in his eagle eyes.
The handmade custom suit he wore made him look even more tall and straight. Just standing there, he was a shining point.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. He came back to his senses and his voice was low and hoarse as he said, "Come in."
A man in a dark blue suit walked in from outside. He was Mo Jin's assistant, Ye Nan.
"Has she arrived?" Mo Jin turned around and saw Ye Nan, sitting back in his office chair with his legs crossed, and asked calmly.
Ye Nan answered truthfully, "Yes, she has."
"Bring her up. I'll interview her personally." Mo Jin's thin lips parted slightly, and his low and sinister voice slowly overflowed from his lips, with a wild and arrogant smile at the corners of his mouth.
"Okay."
Tang Yutong followed Ye Nan up, her eyebrows tightly furrowed and her face looking very unpleasant.
Ye Nan opened the door to the office and made a gesture of invitation. Tang Yutong took a deep breath and walked in. Soon, the door behind her closed.
"What's wrong? Are you so afraid of me?" Seeing the panic on her face, Mo Jin pursed his lips and a dangerous glint flashed in his deep eyes. His fingers lightly tapped on the desk, each tap hitting Tang Yutong's heart.
"Nothing." Tang Yutong stubbornly looked at him, her teeth clenched.
Mo Jin leaned back, his face cool and his laughter cold. "Since you're not afraid, I happen to need a secretary who can also help me with my daily life. How about it?"
"I refuse." Tang Yutong refused outright. Help with daily life? That meant living with him, together? She had just escaped from that cage. How could she easily go back?
"You can refuse! You don't have to repay the debt. I'll have someone go find Ren Shi Yu." Mo Jin sneered, his words clearly threatening.
Tang Yutong's face turned blue with anger. She clenched her teeth tightly, her patience almost at its limit. "You, you're despicable!"
Mo Jin smiled, but didn't say anything. The expression on his handsome face was enough to make people want to kill him. Tang Yutong wanted nothing more than to rush up and bite him to death.
But in the end, she had to compromise. She could live there, but the room had to be far away from him. For example, she could live downstairs while Mo Jin lived upstairs. She just couldn't live on the first floor. Who knew what he would do in the middle of the night?
Little did she know, Mo Jin sneered coldly. "You have no room to refuse now."
Tang Yutong's heart sank.
"You can start working now! I had Yan prepare everything for you and handle the onboarding procedures," said the boss.
The office was buzzing with excitement, and soon Yan knocked on the door and informed Tang Yutong that everything was ready for her to officially start working. He handed her the work ID.
Tang Yutong's desk was just outside of Mo Jin's office. He could see her every move as soon as he opened the door. It was difficult for her to do anything sneaky.
She thought to herself, "He's despicable and shameless. This behavior is so childish! He's just a petty person!"
Reluctantly, she sat down at her desk, turned on her computer, and soon had a task in front of her. A pile of materials was stacked in front of her, a thick stack.
"Madam, this is the task that Mr. Mo gave you. You need to complete it today," Yan said with a slightly sympathetic expression.
Tang Yutong widened her eyes in shock. "So much work, and it needs to be done today?" It would take several days to complete all of this.
Yan sighed and replied, "I don't know about that. You have time to talk to me now, but you should start working. If you don't finish it tomorrow, the CEO said you can't continue working."
Tang Yutong clenched her teeth tightly and cursed his ancestors in her heart. He was doing this on purpose!
She probably wouldn't be able to finish it even if she worked overnight.
What a despicable and shameless guy!
At ten in the evening, the sun had set.
Mo Jin stood at the door of his office, watching the petite figure working hard. She wasn't like she was in the morning, cursing and complaining while typing. Now, she was fully focused on her work.
