The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

Yue Lao Marriage Agency, Jiangning Branch.

"Lu Yuan, how do we resolve this public opinion incident?"

Wu Junning tried his best to make his expression appear serious and businesslike, rather than cheerful and smiling.

She woke up to find the proposal video trending.

I laughed for a full five minutes on the bed, my face was practically bruised from laughing so hard.

Lu Yuan lay on the sofa with his legs crossed.

He squinted, not even lifting his eyelids.

He said, "Laugh if you want to."

"If you don't clarify this immediately, it will cause significant financial losses to the company, and you will need to compensate them..."

"Stop." Lu Yuan raised his hand, correcting her. "Why should I need to pay compensation?"

"Because it was you who caused the loss."

"What is my job title, clearly stated in black and white, in the employee file of the Yue Lao matchmaking agency?"

"Marriage brokerage".

"Have we signed any other contracts with the anchors or brand ambassadors?"

Wu Junning remained silent, because he had indeed not signed it.

As a capitalist, she would never make such a mistake.

The reason for not signing a contract is simply because of what she did when she first brought up the matter of signing a contract.

Lu Yuan said: He only wanted to be a matchmaker, and the live broadcast was simply to help people seeking love in Nanjing.

No one would believe such a statement, which sounds like it comes from a philanthropist.

As a result, Wu Junning felt that Lu Yuan was simply trying to delay and raise his own value.

This led to Wu Junning stalling with Lu Yuan, waiting for him to beg her to sign the contract.

"See? You're judging others by your own petty standards again, aren't you?"

"Lu Yuan, are you deliberately trying to mess with me?"

"Do you have paranoia?"

Lu Yuan got up to leave the sofa; he was essentially a marriage broker.

Even if he submits his application immediately, he will simply resign automatically after a month.

He could even leave if he didn't want his last month's salary.

Seeing that Lu Yuan didn't care at all and wanted to leave directly.

Wu Junning walked over and stopped him, then closed the office door behind him.

"Wait a moment."

"Hey, I'm a married man now, don't touch me."

"Lu Yuan, are you content to be a kept man for the rest of your life?"

Wu Junning now has reason to believe that Lu Yuan simply doesn't want to continue working after marrying a rich woman on the marriage list.

That won't do.

"Lu Yuan, I'd like to speak to you from the bottom of my heart as a leader."

"You've been speaking to me as if you were in a leadership position."

"Relying on a woman to live off her husband is not sustainable; a man should have his own career."

"This isn't what a leader should say. A leader should say things like this." Lu Yuan cleared his throat and adopted a bureaucratic tone, mimicking Wu Junning's voice:

"Your marriage will cause the company's previously booming performance to decline, so you can't leave. You'd better sign a contract immediately, working for the company for life at a very low price."

That's not what I meant.

Wu Junning's face instantly turned red, and she immediately changed her words:

"Then let me tell you this privately: if you don't marry her but marry me instead, we can maintain our on-screen couple image, you can keep your career, and we can sign a prenuptial agreement."

Lu Yuan answered her in the most straightforward, honest, and direct way:

"I won't listen, because we don't talk to each other at all in private."

Why?

"Because heartless and ungrateful people cannot enter my personal life, nor can they marry me."

This isn't meant as a derogatory term, because entering my personal life isn't something particularly special, and marriage is just one of many lifestyles; you have many other, more suitable lifestyles to choose from.

Lu Yuan gently walked around the person in front of him.

He said, "Mr. Wu, if you can't separate your identity properly, you'll never be happy in your life."

If you insist on being a leader, and instead of arguing with me and trying to force me to compromise, you offer me a higher price to entice me, and you don't threaten me with compensation after something happens, then I will most likely help you, and you will earn that money back sooner or later.

If you insist on treating me as a person and speak frankly and sincerely from the beginning, I might be moved and help you, because I am a very easily moved person.

But now, as an employee, I'm not satisfied with your actions; as an individual, I have nothing to say to you.

Lu Yuan pushed open the door and went out. He found the HR department, casually wrote a resignation letter, and slammed it on the HR desk.

He greeted his colleagues with a smile, then turned and left.

In fact, Lu Yuan wanted to leave so freely and unrestrainedly; he was going to leave anyway.

If you stay and chat with your colleagues, you're bound to hear some unpleasant comments.

Because everyone is surely aware of this public opinion storm.

If Lu Yuan were to leave the company again under these circumstances, it would prove that the company would not resolve the issue.

Then everyone's just-rising performance may be wiped out, and there may even be a performance slump due to public opinion.

But someone called out to him.

"Brother Lu, are you resigning?"

"Um, sorry about that, everyone..."

"Brother Lu, happy marriage."

Li Siyu, the new person in charge of the dog matchmaking event, walked over with a stack of red envelopes in her hand.

He is clearly the representative.

"Brother Lu, we might not be able to attend your wedding, so we prepared this for you in advance."

"What does it mean you can't show up? Are you refusing to eat at a banquet?"

"Isn't this because we're afraid you won't call us after you leave?"

Li Siyu gave a simple, honest smile and scratched his head.

It's clear that everyone has already discussed whether or not they can eat at the main table.

The final conclusion is: after Brother Lu left, he probably won't contact them anymore.

"I really didn't plan to call."

Lu Yuan smiled and took the red envelope.

Whether I accept the money or not doesn't matter, I should accept the favor.

While he and Li Siyu were talking with their heads down.

Manager Wang, with his hands behind his back and a shifty look on his face, approached us.

He didn't forget to look back in the direction of his office.

After confirming that Wu Junning hadn't opened the door and come out, he quickly stuffed a red envelope into Lu Yuan's pocket.

Then they quickly brushed past each other:

"I just heard you and Ms. Wu had a fight. I'm worried she'll make things difficult for me."

"Am I awesome or not?"

Lu Yuan gave him a thumbs up.

Manager Wang returned the favor with a thumbs-up: "You're awesome."

Lu Yuan smiled and walked out.

And just as he left the door of the matchmaking agency...

The door to the manager's office also opened at the same time.

Wu Junning strode out, walking very quickly.

Because she wanted to keep him.

She'd made up her mind; this time, she wouldn't bring up any nonsense, she was going to compromise.

She was just behind Lu Yuan.

There was no sign of a person standing in front of Lu Yuan at the entrance of the matchmaking agency.

It is Xu Zhixiao.

Her first words were: "Lu Yuan, I can compromise for your career."
