After all, would a sober woman, who had also studied sparring, not be able to push a drunkard away?
No, of course she could, not only push him away, but knock him out and carry him away on her shoulders.
It was because Lu knew what she could do that he immediately realised what she was up to when he pulled her into bed, and thus became disgusted with her.
Yes, a secretary who has been with him for years, a secretary he trusts, a friend he trusts, and yet she is scheming against him in this matter, how can he not be angry and disgusted?
So he couldn’t say he was at fault for not being responsible for her.
Rongshu let out another sigh, “No matter who was right and who was wrong for you that day, but the child is innocent, have you really decided to get rid of it?”
“Mm.” Secretary Tong nodded, “Decided, this child came too unexpectedly, his father won’t like him, even less will he accept his arrival, if I give birth to him, in future he will be an illegitimate child, or an illegitimate child without a father, when he asks me who his father is, how should I answer him? So I thought about it, since I can’t give him a complete family and can’t let him have the fatherly love that a normal child has, then I shouldn’t let him come into the world, I can’t let my selfishness harm the child.”
Hearing her words, Rongshu did not feel much surprise.
For she had felt the same way at first.
When she first became pregnant, she did not know that she was carrying Fu Jingting’s child and thought that she was carrying a stranger’s, so she did not intend to give birth to the child, also because she was worried that it would be unfair to the child.
“Since you’ve thought about it, then naturally I can’t say anything about it, but I need to know, does Ah Qi know about your pregnancy?” Rongshu inquired, “If Ah Qi knows, it would be best to tell Ah Qi if you want to get rid of this child, but if Ah Qi doesn’t know, then forget I said anything.”
Secretary Tong shook her head, “Mr. Lu doesn’t know, I haven’t told anyone about my pregnancy, and I don’t intend to tell Mr. Lu, if Mr. Lu knows I’m pregnant, he will only disgust me more, he may even think that I deliberately didn’t take the medicine to conceive the baby.”
“That,” the corner of Rong Shu’s mouth tugged for a moment, speechless.
Because, it was still possible.
Given Ah Qi’s current poor senses towards Secretary Tong, no matter what Secretary Tong did, Ah Qi would speculate on Secretary Tong with the utmost malice.
So once Ah Qi knew that Secretary Tong was pregnant, he would indeed think that Secretary Tong had deliberately conceived in order to force his way out.
“However, even if Mr. Lu knew I was pregnant, he would still tell me to get rid of the baby, as I said, Mr. Lu hates me, and how would he accept this child, so the best way to deal with this child at the moment is to get rid of it, so that way, that calculated fate and involvement between me and Mr. Lu before, can also be done away with.” Secretary Tong said as she held the gla*s of milk.
The milk was hot, but this bit of heat could not penetrate her cold palms and warm her heart.
Her heart, including all over her body, was still cold.
“That’s good.” Rongshu nodded her head.
She could now see that it was impossible between Ah Qi and Secretary Tong.
After learning about what happened between Ah Qi and Secretary Tong that night, she knew that she couldn’t set these two up.
In Ah Qi’s heart, Secretary Tong was a woman full of calculations.
So how could Ah Qi, in turn, be attracted to Secretary Tong and be with her.
Since this is the case, then this child, staying would really be too pitiful.
Even if he stayed, it was unlikely that Ah Qi would stay with Secretary Tong because of the child, it was likely that Ah Qi would simply snatch the child and Secretary Tong would not be able to stop it at all.
At that time, what was left for Tong’s secretary would be another kind of despair.
Why bother?
Perhaps taking away the child was the right choice.
“Then when the time comes, I’ll accompany you.” Rongshu gently put her hand on the back of Secretary Tong’s hand and patted it.
Secretary Tong’s heart warmed and she nodded, “Yes, thank you, Chairman.”
“It’s nothing.” Rong Shu shook her head, “There is also a reason why you and Ah Qi have come to this point between you and Ah Qi, I was the one who let you follow him up in the first place, if I didn’t let you follow him up, the relationship between you and Ah Qi would still be quite good, and you would have a better chance to be with Ah Qi.”
Secretary Tong lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, “Although you let me follow up, I could have controlled things at any time, it was just that I didn’t, the one who was really at fault was me, so don’t blame yourself, Chairman.”
“It’s the other way around, being comforted by you.” Rongshu shook her head and lost her smile.
After that, the two of them stayed in the milk tea shop for almost half an hour before settling the bill and parting ways.
Secretary Tong went back to her home, while Rong Shu went back to the group.
Before they parted, however, Secretary Tong specifically asked Rongshu to keep her pregnancy a secret and not to tell Lu Qi.
Rongshu agreed, and only then did Secretary Tong leave at ease.
But Rongshu knew that in fact, this matter, hidden from Lu Qi, was not quite fair to him.
After all, he was the father of the child and had the right to know about it.
But telling Lu Qi would make a big deal out of it.
Given Lu Qi’s character, it would be strange if he didn’t look for Secretary Tong.
That was why she did not hesitate to agree to Secretary Tong.
Just when Rong Shu was sitting behind her desk and lost in thought, the door to her office opened.
Fu Jingting came in from outside carrying an exquisite solid wood food box.
Seeing the woman sitting there with her eyes dazed and dazed at first glance, he raised his eyebrows and then deliberately lightened his pace.
It was only after Fu Jingting placed the food box on her desk that Rongshu heard the movement, and only then did her eyes drift back into a trance and look at the food box.
She was first shocked at how there was suddenly something like this on her desk, then she looked upwards along this object and saw the man standing across the desk, looking at her with a raised eyebrow, her eyes widened slightly and a look of surprise appeared on her face, “Why are you you here?”
She got up in a hurry and walked around the desk to the man, “Aren’t you supposed to be busy? Why did you come over?
Fu Jingting let go of the carrying handle of the food box, looked at her and smiled at her, “I just came back from taking those foreign management to check out the factory in Haicheng and pa*sed by here on the way, it just so happens that it’s lunch time again, so I came here specially to accompany you to eat, after eating, I’m going to the airport to see them off.”
Those management, who were all presidents of foreign subsidiaries, were so dedicated to working for him that they might not be able to make a trip back to China for a few years, so naturally he, as the boss, had to give them a personal ride to show that he, the boss, had always valued them.
This way they will work for him more seriously and attentively and manage the foreign subsidiaries well.
Hearing the man say that he was going to be busy after dinner, Rong Shu sighed inwardly, “It’s exhausting to listen to, it’s really hard work.”
“Nothing, harder than this is yet to come, I guess it’s almost here, just next month, the end of the year is the busiest, Fu’s group takes stock, I, the boss, may have to live in the office during that time.” Fu Jingting took her hand, and with his other hand, he lifted the food box on his desk and led her towards the sofa.
Rongshu looked at him sideways, “Living in the office?”
“Mm.” Fu Jingting nodded, “It’s like this at the end of every year, I’m telling you now in advance, I might not be able to accompany you during that time then.”
He paused and looked at her with a trace of apology in his eyes.
Rongshu smiled, “Why are you like that, you’re just too busy to spend time with me, why do you look sorry for me?”
