World-Class Scumbag vs. Top-Tier Love-Struck Fool

Zhu Yu was in no mood to deal with the project manager downstairs, so he had Xiao Zhuang pass along a message instead.

What the hell was this? Had the whole world gone crazy? Even an ex-boyfriend had popped up out of nowhere?

This was seriously bizarre. The book hadn't mentioned any of this.

Irritated, Zhu Yu got off work right on time.

When he got home, he began searching to see whether the original owner had left behind a diary or anything else that could answer his questions.

As it happened, Zhu Yu really did find a diary.

Before opening it, Zhu Yu silently prayed in his heart, Brother Zhu Yu, I have no choice. If it weren't for these special circumstances, I would never rummage through your things. Sorry, sorry.

After his silent prayer, Zhu Yu opened the diary in his hands. The moment he flipped to the first page, two ID photos appeared before his eyes.

The two photos were of the original owner and Guan Yi.

Today was an important day. A-Yi and I got together.

2011.10.5

I always feel like A-Yi doesn't really like me. We've clearly been together for a month, but we haven't even held hands.

2012.5.6

A-Yi's company had financial problems, and he borrowed 100,000 yuan from me to tide it over.

2012.8.7

A-Yi borrowed another 100,000 yuan from me.

2013.3.9

Our first date was at a café. [Photo]

2013.6.26

I found out that A-Yi hadn't publicly acknowledged me in front of his friends. Instead, he kept things hidden and vague. I don't like that.

2014.2.16

I'm a little unsure. Is dating really supposed to be like this?

2014.6.1

We broke up. [Heartbroken] He was the one who brought it up. He found his biological parents.

After reading the entire diary, Zhu Yu was so furious his heart was about to explode. This second male lead was absolutely a world-class scumbag!

The original owner was also completely love-struck. Zhu Yu just couldn't understand it. You dated him for three years, and you didn't even hold hands once. What, was it a Platonic relationship?

What exactly did the original owner see in him? The 200,000 yuan he later scammed him out of? Or the way he kicked him aside the moment he discovered he was the descendant of a wealthy family?

This diary needed a new title. Don't call it a love diary—call it World-Class Scumbag vs. Love-Struck Fool. In the end, neither side could claim victory.

--[Calm down, calm down. Zhu Yu, you need to understand that anger isn't something you should direct at yourself. It should be directed at someone else.]

--[Since that scumbag Guan Yi is under my command now, I'll make him experience what thunderous methods are, what a leader's care is, and what the charm of work truly means.]

Far away at Imperial Dragon Bay, Shen Jingmo's hand holding the newspaper stiffened. This person had finally switched targets? He was no longer talking about him and A-Yan, those two unlucky brothers?

Then why could he hear it from so far away, while Grandfather and A-Yan couldn't? Was this some kind of special treatment?

Shen Jingmo thought about it for a while without gaining the slightest clue. Zhu Yu's voice had also conveniently gone silent in his mind, so he gave up on thinking about it and continued reading the financial newspaper in his hands.

Meanwhile, despite all his internal complaints, Zhu Yu still carefully put the diary away in the cabinet.

The next day at work, as Zhu Yu passed Guan Yi's workstation, his gaze shot over like a blade.

With his back to Zhu Yu, Guan Yi only felt a chill run through his body. He didn't know why, but ever since seeing Zhu Yu yesterday, he'd been having nightmares all night.

Zhu Yu gave a cold snort and entered his office. There was no need to rush things. No matter what, he would definitely recover those 200,000 yuan for the original owner. That was 200,000 yuan, not 20 yuan! How could that scumbag borrow it from the original owner as if it were only 20 yuan?

Annie and Xiao Zhuang's desks happened to give them a clear view of Zhu Yu's expression.

Annie and Xiao Zhuang blinked. Why did Assistant Zhu's expression look so unpleasant?

Xiao Zhuang spread his hands. Today was a hellish start.

Inside the office, Zhu Yu and the others looked over the day's work schedule.

In a few days, it would be the company's annual year-end gala.

Wow, there would be gold bars again! This was the first piece of good news Zhu Yu had heard in the past two days.

So, their task over the next few days was to work with their subordinates to decorate the venue for the annual gala and order desserts and drinks.

Zhu Yu divided the tasks into several groups and assigned them out.

For the sake of efficiency, Zhu Yu deliberately separated Annie and Xiao Zhuang, having each of them lead Shen Jingyan and Li Yichen respectively.

When the two received the notice, they felt as if the sky had fallen, but they had no way to refuse.

Shen Jingyan and Li Yichen didn't feel they were being looked down on. Ever since learning about the gap between themselves and everyone else last time, their work attitudes had noticeably improved. Both were striving to escape last place.

Su Duoduo watched Shen Jingyan walk away and pressed her lips together. Unable to do anything else, she could only turn around and follow the senior employee from the company.

Zhu Yu, meanwhile, headed to the CEO's office to discuss the annual gala arrangements with Shen Jingmo.
