Chapter 640: Boss Su Looked For You
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
The only trace of blood on He Xiyan’s face disappeared within a blink of an eye. She was stunned there, her eyes fixed on the screen of her mobile phone as if unable to move, until her trembling hand could no longer hold it.
The phone fell onto the floor with a “bang”.
The colleagues near her hurried over to support her and asked with concern, “Are you alright? How about helping you downstairs and going home to rest first?”
It was You Lili speaking. Although she had only got along with He Xiyan for more than one month, she believed that He Xiyan was definitely not that kind of person reported in the news. And she dare not imagine how much mental harm and humiliation such a report would do to a woman.
Several other colleagues also came to comfort He Xiyan.
They had always thought that He Xiyan led a very happy life, and they even admired her. They had not expected that the fact would be like this. It seemed that rich families were really not such places that ordinary women could marry into.
He Xiyan was surrounded by several colleagues. She covered her eyes with her hands and her heart was twitching. She bit her lip tightly, a taste of blood even dispersing between her lips and teeth. Such pain, however, was far from comparable to the agitation and pain in her heart at this time.
She struggled to suppress her emotions which were about to burst out, just because she didn’t want her colleagues to see her collapsing in pain.
“I’m all right.” He Xiyan shook hands to her colleagues, but her red, swollen and sore eyes already told everyone without reservation that she was suffering great pain and embarrassment at the moment.

“It’s too excessive. The media only caught the wind.”
“Yes, if we know which media first reported it, we should accuse them of spreading rumors and slandering.”
…
Several colleagues also felt indignant. They couldn’t even stand such news.
At this time, Lisa, the personnel manager came in.
She went to He Xiyan, patted her on the shoulder and said, “Come with me; Boss Su looks for you.”
He Xiyan seemed to have become slow in reaction. It took her a long time before she turned to look at Lisa in front of her. She didn’t understand what “Boss Su looks for you” meant. But she probably could guess the reason. It should be the negative news about her.
Could such news have any impact on the company?
Thinking of such possible reason, she felt her heart down to the bottom. She could even guess that she might lose her job again. However, she just couldn’t understand how Su Ye, the boss of a company like Yimi which had tens of thousands employees, would bother to handle such thing as employing or firing staff.
Lisa pointed to the leftmost office and said, “Go in, Boss Su is inside.”
He Xiyan pressed the doorbell of the office gently, and soon the inductive door opened automatically.
She saw the man standing inside, a very unfamiliar man to her, and also a frightening man to her.
At this time, Su Ye, in straight suit, was standing in front of the huge landing window. His eyes were just overlooking Ye City, a busy city. In his hand there was a cup of freshly brewed coffee, which was still giving off hot air.
Of course, he heard the sound of the door being opened and knew that the woman was standing at the door. But he kept his back toward her, not even moving a little.
“Come on in.” After a while, he opened his mouth and spoke in a faint voice. He Xiyan could not understand what he meant.
She gave a long sigh and then walked in, standing three meters away from the man.

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
