Knowing that everything he said was true, Tang Lixue reluctantly agreed: "I understand. So, what should we do now? The plan failed, and we can't afford to fail again next time."
Frowning, Ren Shiyu thought for a moment and finally chose to use a trick: "Here's what we'll do. I'll find a way to fake my hospitalization, and you can trick her into coming to see me."
Upon hearing this, Tang Lixue agreed: "Okay, I understand."
Turning her head, Tang Lixue called Tang Yutong using a voice changer: "Hello, is this Miss Tang? Your friend Ren Shiyu is hospitalized here. Could you come and see him?"
Tang Yutong looked at her phone, somewhat puzzled: "Who are you? How do you know Ren Shiyu?"
Realizing that she had failed to deceive her, Tang Lixue bit her lip and decided to answer her question: "Well, you see, we're at the city hospital, and Ren Shiyu asked me to call you."
"Okay, I understand. Please ask him to wait for me. I'll be there soon."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, although she was still puzzled, Tang Yutong decided to change her clothes and go to the hospital.
When she arrived at the hospital, Tang Yutong pushed open the door and saw Ren Shiyu, who looked pale. She opened her mouth, and her doubts were suppressed: "What happened to you? What's wrong?"
Looking at her coming in, Ren Shiyu's face was full of pain: "Yutong, I know it's my fault, and I know I should keep my distance from you. But I still want to see you one more time. After this time, I won't see you again. So, can you stay with me for a while?"
Seeing him suddenly so humble, Tang Yutong was confused: "What's going on? What happened? How did you end up in the hospital like this? I remember you weren't so weak before."
Sighing, Ren Shiyu looked helpless: "It's nothing serious, really. It's just that your husband probably thinks I'm not a good person and doesn't want you to have contact with me. Or maybe he's jealous. He's said a lot of things to me, and I feel like I should keep my distance from you."
"Him? Are you talking about Mo Jin?"
"Yes, that's him. So, let's keep our distance from now on. Just today, can you stay with me for the last time, Yutong?" His eyes were full of pleading, making Tang Yutong unable to refuse him in the end.
Sitting down, she asked, "What did he say to you? How did you end up like this?"
"He didn't...say much. He just said that you're married now and we should keep our distance, otherwise he'll cause trouble for me."
As he spoke, his voice grew quieter and quieter, making Tang Yutong angry by the end. "What? He actually talked to you like that? When did he start managing my social circle?"
"Okay, I'm fine. Don't talk about him anymore. If you two end up having a falling out because of me, I'll blame myself."
As he spoke, Ren Shiyu's face was full of self-blame, which made Tang Yutong angry. "Don't worry, I'll help you with this. I'll stand by your side. I never thought he would do something so outrageous. I'll make sure justice is served for you."
With that, she left in a fit of anger, while Ren Shiyu watched her leave with a satisfied expression.
Angry, Tang Yutong ran to the company and burst into the office. Mo Jin was taken aback by her sudden entrance. "What's wrong? Why do you look so angry? Who upset you?"
With a cold snort, she slowly replied, "I thought President Mo could do some good things, but he's actually doing these things behind my back. It's just too much. Doesn't he have any self-awareness?"
Mo Jin didn't know what she meant and looked puzzled. "I have no idea what you're talking about. What did I do behind your back? Please explain."
"Don't you know what you did? I thought you were a gentleman, but I never thought you would do something like this. Don't you think you're being too much?"
"Tang Yutong, watch your language. This is the company. Can you stop making a scene?"
"I'm making a scene? You're the one who's causing trouble and then blaming me? Who's really making a scene here?"
"What's wrong with you today? Why are you saying these things? Who upset you? Did someone say something to you?"
"No one upset me. But what you did will be known by everyone someday. It's just that no one has said anything yet."
"If you don't explain yourself today, don't bother leaving. What did I do to make you so angry? Don't you think you're being unreasonable?"
After speaking, he closed the office door and stood in front of it.
"I don't want to talk about it. You know what you did, and that's enough. Move aside! Let me go out," she said, pushing past the person in front of her and storming out.
Watching her angry figure disappear, Mo Jin called for his secretary. "Find out where she went just now and who she met. I need to know what's going on," he ordered.
"Yes, sir," the secretary replied, and within ten minutes, she came back with the information. "Sir, I've checked. Madam went to the hospital today."
"The hospital? Is she sick?" Mo Jin wondered. But thinking about her behavior just now, he quickly dismissed the idea that she was sick.
After a pause, the secretary hesitated to answer. "No, sir. She went to see Ren Shiyu."
"What?" Mo Jin was angry to hear that she went to see him. He had thought they had no contact with each other anymore, but it turned out he was wrong.
He swept all the files on the table to the ground and scolded, "I didn't expect her to still have anything to do with that man. I thought they had cut off all contact. It seems that I wasn't ruthless enough."
The secretary tried to defend Tang Yutong. "Sir, maybe we misunderstood. It's possible that Madam just went to see him because he's in the hospital."
Mo Jin sneered and looked at him, arms crossed. "Is that so? If it was just a normal meeting between friends, would she have been so angry just now? She doesn't trust me, does she? I thought she did, but it turns out her trust in me is so low that she easily believes what he says."
