Once Upon A One Night Stand novel Chapter 48

Words about Shu Tian obtrusively broke into the boss' office had been spread widely by her colleagues on the same team when she returned to the office.

Things occurred unexpectedly, which got her into a flap. She went straight upstairs to look for Li Han without thinking too much. But once again, her action had been used to add more fun to the gossip.

However, they only had a few things to gossip about. In the past, everyone said that she had a sponsor, a sugar daddy, things like that. However, no one even dared to guess who this man might be. Now that she had broken into the boss' office and returned in a whole skin, it was reasonable for people to suppose that Li Han was the one playing the role behind her.

Shu Tian received everyone's inquisitive and cautious eyes. Even Zhang Rui'er was cautious like she was treading on eggshells.

She restrained the soreness in her throat, tried to act normally. The rumor seemed to be the only thing that flew faster than light.

She could not control other people's mouths and keep them shut. So she could only do her best to ignore or not take these rumors seriously.

Sitting on the office chair, Shu Tian took a sip of water from the thermos. The liquid warmed her stomach up. Thinking of Li Han's cold eyes just now, she felt a chill out of nowhere.

Liu Lifang took the video, walked out of the office with a big smile. She didn't think Liu was a kind person at all. Liu gave the video to her only because of the unborn child.

Her only concern was that Li Han might misunderstand her. She had clarified, corrected, and tried to clear things up one by one. However, he chose to drive her out with only a few words.

Shu Tian sighed with discouragement, half-lying on her desk listlessly. She took out her phone and sent a message to Fu Qingtong.

[Sweety Britney (Shu Tian): are you there?]

[Thigh (Fu Qingtong): yes.]

[Sweety Britney: It seemed that I pissed Li Han off. He really got angry.]

[Thigh: ... You actually pissed him off! Tell me about it. (Gossipy face)]

Shu Tian's fingers stopped moving for a second because her brain was processing what had happened just now. Then she told Fu Qingtong about it in brief.

Less than half a minute after she sent the message, Fu sent her back with a string of surprised faces.

[Sweety Britney: what do you mean?]

[Thigh: I respect you, for you really have balls. You are the first one who determines to kick down your ladder.]

Shu Tian frowned when she read this message. Her fingertips were dancing on the screen: [why would I become a ladder kicker? I have explained to him that it was all for the child. It was just... useless.]

[Thigh: I bet it was! It was intolerable for anyone. From where I stand, Li Han had been polite that he didn't hang you up and beat the shit out of you. Think about it. To help you, Li Han, the boss of a big law firm, was concerned about your stuff and actually taking the responsibility for you. In the end, you still stand on the side of your ex-husband. Is it tolerable?]

Shu Tian clicked on the dialog box, typed some words then quickly deleted them. Her fingers paused. Before she could figure out what to reply, she received Fu Qingtong's message again.

[Thigh: you're still too soft-hearted. You might have considered too much for the child, while Li Han might not think so. After all, you're entangled in Tang Zechen's problem. If you really worry that your Boss Li would be angry, go and coax him.]

Coax?

Shu Tian imagined how it felt to use this word on Li Han, and she got goosebumps. She was probably frozen to death before she could coax him.

Not everyone could bear that man's horrible aura.

She chatted with Fu Qingtong for some time. Then someone in the office called her. Shu Tian didn't dare to neglect. She put down her phone and went to work. It was not until after work that she had time to pick up her phone again.

Looking at the time, she thought of Fu Qingtong's words again. She thought that Li Han had not left yet. She tidied up the things on the desk first, took her bag, and tried to escape.

"Shu Tian!"

When she reached the door of the office, someone suddenly called her.
