Chapter 973: Chapter 973: Carrying Another Man’s Bastard (3) Chapter 973: Chapter 973: Carrying Another Man’s Bastard (3) The female colleague dared not tell the truth and shook her head, feigning ignorance.

Su Hongxing looked towards the other colleagues, and as they noticed her gaze, they all pretended to be very busy.

Su Hongxing couldn’t be bothered to guess anymore and headed towards Ye Qilan’s office.

As she reached the door, she saw Li Yan coming out.

“Secretary Su, I have something to say to you,” Li Yan stopped Su Hongxing, who was trying to enter the office.

Su Hongxing quirked her delicate eyebrows, “Ye Qilan’s eyes don’t have a problem, do they?”

Li Yan, puzzled, countered, “Does Mr. Ye have a problem with his eyes?”

How come she didn’t know?

Relieved by that response, Su Hongxing asked further, “Everyone’s looking at me strangely; did I become a laughingstock or something?”

Li Yan sighed softly, then asked in return, “Did you perhaps do something to anger Mr. Ye?”

Su Hongxing remembered running into Qiao Qiao at the hospital and, concerned about Qiao Qiao, going with her to buy a pregnancy test at the pharmacy. She had asked Xiaohe to inform Ye Qilan, so could it be because she left without telling him, that small-minded Ye Qilan got angry with her?

“I don’t know if it counts as angering him, because Mr. Ye’s way of thinking isn’t like most people’s,” Su Hongxing replied helplessly.

If Ye Qilan got mad, it was certainly because she left with Qiao Qiao and didn’t wait for him to come out—that must have upset him.

“Mr. Ye has ordered that your face not be seen by him for the time being, because he doesn’t want to see your face,” Li Yan said with an awkward smile, “So, you’re no longer a secretary…”

“So I’m not, big deal. He thinks I’m dying to be his secretary,” Su Hongxing sniffed, then felt something was off, “If I’m not his secretary, then what am I supposed to do?”

“A gofer!” Li Yan chuckled dryly.

Su Hongxing’s eyes widened, pointing to her perky nose, “I’m a gofer?!”

What a joke. She had her own company; why would she be dying to be Ye Qilan’s gofer, and the invisible kind at that?

Could Ye Qilan be any more childish?

In fact, this wasn’t Ye Qilan’s doing. Fu Yan saw Ye Qilan sulking and took it upon himself to demote Su Hongxing from secretary to gofer, thinking it would allow Ye Qilan to vent his frustrations.

Fu Yan even issued a notice, so all employees of Lugang Company knew about it, leading to everyone looking at Su Hongxing with strange eyes.

People didn’t know the truth and assumed Su Hongxing had utterly lost standing this time. After all, Ye Qilan had given the order, and a notice had been issued to prevent Su Hongxing’s face from appearing before him.

Wasn’t this the equivalent of an official edict sending Su Hongxing into the Cold Palace?

Su Hongxing soon saw the posted notice; it was hard to miss since it was everywhere.

It wasn’t a big deal, and Su Hongxing wouldn’t have taken such a matter to heart with Ye Qilan, but wherever she went, people looked at her with sympathy and pity, which she couldn’t stand.

She wasn’t pitiable, so why should everyone look at her this way?

Why should she stay at the company and be the butt of everyone’s jokes when Ye Qilan had been so over-the-top?

Fu Yan was busy in his office when suddenly the door was kicked open. He looked up to see Su Hongxing and scowled, “Sister-in-law, this is my office, after all. Could you show me some respect?!”

“Go bring Little Pudding to me. I’ll wait here,” Su Hongxing declared her intention.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yan replied with a smirk, “Alright, I’ll go and bring Little Pudding to sister-in-law right away.”
