Jiang Xuxu asked tentatively.

"It's unavoidable."

Gu Jingshen looked at her with a tender smile, but his words left no room for argument.

Jiang Xuxu, who was naturally afraid of authority, couldn't help but lose some of her momentum.

"Three rules and regulations: When necessary, both parties must unconditionally cooperate with each other in dealing with family members."

Gu Jingshen took out a document and read it aloud. Jiang Xuxu listened with wide eyes and reached out to grab it.

"What is this?"

"Three rules," Gu Jingshen said with a smile, raising his hand high.

Jiang Xuxu stood up, jumped up, and snatched it, "Let me see? What three rules? I don't know anything about them!"

Gu Jingshen deliberately teased her, letting her jump around in front of him. When he looked down, he accidentally caught a glimpse of her cleavage.

His body suddenly stiffened, his heart pounded like a drum, and he let Jiang Xuxu snatch the documents from his hand.

"I was just looking, why are you blushing?"

Jiang Xuxu rolled her eyes at him, completely unaware of his bobbing Adam's apple.

Upon closer inspection, I was dumbfounded.

That scoundrel actually let her put her fingerprint on his hand while she was asleep?!

Read it carefully...

Fortunately, although the terms were designed to accommodate Jing Shen's wishes, they did not harm Jiang Xuxu's interests, and most of them were in her favor.

For example, the woman can terminate the marriage at any time and receive additional compensation; the man cannot force the woman to have sex against her will, and if the woman initiates the relationship, the man must cooperate unconditionally...

Seeing this, Jiang Xuxu frowned slightly and said reproachfully, "What kind of nonsense is this..."

The words "it doesn't count" were never uttered, but the smile on his lips already confirmed the answer Gu Jingshen wanted.

Jiang Xuxu was also fond of him.

Just then, her phone beeped. Jiang Xuxu put down the document in her hand and opened it to check.

This is a group announcement from Chuanhe:

Former Deputy General Manager Lu Chenpin was found guilty of misconduct and abuse of power... and was ultimately dismissed as a serious offense.

To protect the research achievements of the original developer of the project, Jiang Xuxu, the following measures are taken: Jiang Xuxu is hereby formally dismissed, and will be provided with economic compensation of 24 yuan, as well as the return of her patent rights...

Upon seeing the final result, Jiang Xuxu's first reaction was: "I was fired??? Why?!"

My second reaction was: "24??? Did the finance department miscalculate the multiplier?"

She had never heard of a severance package of 30 times the amount before.

Furthermore, Chuanhe returned her patent rights, which is even more remarkable.

On the other hand, it's understandable to fire Lu Chen, since he didn't do anything wrong, so why should he be fired?

It's important to understand that once you have a stain on your record in this profession, it will be very difficult to establish yourself in it in the future.

"Do you still want to work for a company like this?" Gu Jingshen asked.

Jiang Xuxu was speechless for a moment.

You can't exactly say that you did it for that loser who only makes 8000 yuan a month, can you?

My starting salary was 5000 when I first joined the company, and it took me three years to finally earn 8000...

It would be such a pity to resign.

Seeing her bewildered expression, Gu Jingshen continued, "Now, even if you still want to go back, they won't dare to use you anymore."

After so many things happened, I really have no face to go back.

Previously, Lu Chen had posted about her online and even went to her house to spread nonsense.

Although my mother called to say that the misunderstanding had been cleared up, the whole neighborhood must have heard about it.

I lost my job and my home.

Jiang Xuxu suddenly felt abandoned by the world, and her good mood instantly plummeted.

And that scumbag Lu Chen, he definitely won't let this go.

She turned her gaze to Gu Jingshen beside her, scrutinized him for a moment, and then asked, "Did you do this?"

Gu Jingshen feigned ignorance and asked, "Which one are you referring to?"

"You know the answer already, so you ask."

After she fell asleep that day, Lu Chen's crimes were revealed one by one.

He was not only investigated by the police, but also posted online, becoming a pariah.

Jiang Xuxu, on the other hand, was completely stripped bare.

Chuanhe's reputation was damaged, and the Lu family also terminated their contract with them.

Wang Lili seeks revenge for her sister's death. She deliberately shows affection for Lu Chen while secretly harboring feelings for Jiang Xuxu, all to prevent others from harming her.

Furthermore, even the anonymous email that Jiang Xuxu received exposing Lu Chen was sent by her.

The purpose was to let Jiang Xuxu see Lu Chen's true colors.

Afterwards, she took her sister's ashes and went to live a peaceful life in a foreign country.

"So, even though I'm a victim in this situation, how can I remain uninvolved?"

After reading the entire news report, Jiang Xuxu was somewhat incredulous.

I slept in a daze for two days, and then the world turned upside down.

Gu Jingshen, how did he do it?

At this moment, Jiang Xuxu came to her senses: "Where's the audio-visual equipment?"

Gu Jingshen pointed to the half-full glass of water, and she quickly ran over, scooped it up, and examined it. "How long has it been soaking? Can it recover?"

"It can't be restored," he answered crisply.

"This is irrefutable evidence. Destroying it might... what if, what if the road collapses again..."

"There's no 'what if'."

Gu Jingshen firmly pulled her into his arms, "From now on, no one can hurt you, including me."

His embrace was broad and warm, but Jiang Xuxu felt it was unreal.

Ever since the road collapse, she seems to have become allergic to romance.

"I can't breathe." She nudged Gu Jingshen awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Gu Jingshen quickly released her, his face full of tenderness, just like when he first held her and kissed her, so delicate and gentle, as if he were looking at a fragile piece of porcelain.

"It's okay."

Jiang Xuxu's mind drifted somewhat, and she seemed to have developed a stronger attraction to him.

She knew that Gu Jingshen did not want this so-called evidence to be preserved and used as evidence to accuse her of having an affair with Lu Chen in the future.

It's better if it's destroyed.

All of that is in the past.

"What are you standing there for? Didn't you say you were going home to see your parents?" Jiang Xuxu glanced at him.

A smile spread across Gu Jingshen's face as he turned and went inside to retrieve a suitcase.

Let's go!

Jiang Xuxu was stunned for a moment.

They've even packed their luggage; they're definitely up to no good!

After buying the tickets, the two were ready to set off.

Jiang Xuxu stood up, but felt dizzy and almost fell over. Gu Jingshen quickly helped her up.

"What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Xuxu shook her head. "I'm fine. I'm probably just too tired these days."

Gu Jingshen was worried. She had been sleeping for two days, so why was she still so tired?

He had already suspected that the sedative and sleeping pills he gave her would at most make her sleep more soundly.

He ended up in a coma for two days. If he hadn't woken up in the middle of the night and was able to eat and drink, he would have called a doctor to come and see him long ago.

There were many inconveniences on the plane, so Gu Jingshen insisted on changing her flight and asked Uncle Qin to come and take her pulse.

"Madam is fine, just very tired. She just needs some rest."

"It's good that you're alright."

Gu Jingshen held her hand, his face full of relief.

Jiang Xuxu gently scolded, "See, I already said it's nothing, but you're making a mountain out of a molehill, and you've made us late for home."

"Are you in such a hurry to take me home to meet your parents?" Gu Jingshen grinned foolishly.

Uncle Qin shook his head and couldn't help but remind him, "Sir, why don't you take your wife to the hospital for a full check-up when you have some free time?"

Gu Jingshen turned around in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Uncle Qin reorganized his words, "I can't be sure for sure, but there might be some hidden health issues, so it's best to get it checked out as soon as possible."

Uncle Qin is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor, most skilled at pulse diagnosis, but not very knowledgeable about Western medicine.

Jiang Xuxu suddenly felt inexplicably guilty.
