The Reborn Little Wife is Beautiful and Sassy
Chapter 102 What's Different
Chapter 102 What’s different?
It was impossible to resign. If she wanted to climb up, it would be best to stay with Huo Yanzheng.
"This is the job Wanwan introduced to me. No matter how difficult or tiring it is, I will work hard to overcome it. I will never back down. It doesn't matter if I suffer a little more, but I can't let Wanwan down."
Many pairs of women who succeeded Huo Yanzheng ended up failing, and Zhao Xitong didn't want to be one of them.
If Chu Wan is used as an excuse, Huo Yanzheng will not really fire her.
Although her expression was still ugly, Zhao Xitong felt calm in her heart. She had Chu Wan's trump card and she could not be afraid of anything.
However, Huo Yanzheng's next words disturbed and shattered her newly settled stability. She heard Huo Yanzheng say to her in a cold and solemn voice: "If you are restless, it will be a matter of time before you are fired."
Even though she was wearing heavy makeup, the rouge red luster on Zhao Xitong's face was still faded inch by inch, and her flaming red lips faded away, revealing her delicate look.
Zhao Xitong's pupils trembled slightly, and she subconsciously murmured: "If you fire me, Wanwan will be sad if she finds out."
At the beginning, it was Chu Wan's request that Zhao Xitong could stay in the Huo family. Now, if Huo Yanzheng wants to fire her, he should not ignore Chu Wan's feelings.
"No, she won't be sad." Huo Yanzheng glanced at Zhao Xitong coldly, his eyebrows sharp, "She won't be sad anymore."
"I just had a small conflict with Wanwan, and we will make up after a while. I made no mistakes, and I cherish the job in hand. Wanwan will not let you fire me." Zhao Xitong held on.
said with a depressed spirit.
She just wanted to do things by his side, why did he even deprive her of this opportunity?
She treats him wholeheartedly and does everything for him. How can he think of firing her?
She tried her best to get closer to him, but why did he always push her away without mercy?
What she wanted was clearly right in front of her, but she could only see it, but she couldn't touch it or reach it.
Zhao Xitong couldn't help but stretched out her hand and wanted to grab Huo Yanzheng's sleeve. However, Huo Yanzheng avoided her touch. She couldn't touch his sleeve, and all she caught was nothingness.
Huo Yanzheng's face was stern. He turned to Zhao Xitong's delicate face and smiled playfully: "Wanwan said that she would support all my decisions, including firing you."
When he met Zhao Xitong in the past, due to Chu Wan's affection, Huo Yanzheng would not attack Zhao Xitong so single-handedly, but Chu Wan's attitude was clear, and she would no longer indiscriminately protect Zhao Xitong.
In this way, he doesn't have to worry about anything anymore.
Zhao Xitong wanted to cling to him, and he could turn a blind eye and pretend he didn't see it. Anyway, she would not get any advantage from him, but Zhao Xitong despicably used Chu Wan to achieve his goal.
I won't sit back and watch.
Giving appropriate warnings and blows to Zhao Xitong was Huo Yanzheng's way of silently protecting Chu Wan.
And Chu Wan doesn't need to know this.
Huo Yanzheng entered the exclusive elevator and went straight to the top floor.
As the elevator door closed, Zhao Xitong glimpsed the eye-catching dark red hickey on the side of Huo Yanzheng's neck in a trance. Her pupils suddenly widened, and she was filled with astonishment.
How come, how come there are hickeys on the side of his neck?
Who was he with last night?
If he doesn't touch her, who can fall into his eyes?
The answers to all the questions point to Chu Wan. The only person who can get close to Huo Yanzheng is Chu Wan.
Therefore, Huo Yanzheng didn't answer her call, probably not because he didn't want to answer it, but because he was busy making out with Chu Wan.
Even after seeing the call she made, Huo Yanzheng still chose to turn a deaf ear. This was not only because of his dislike and disgust with her, but also because he was afraid that Chu Wan would misunderstand.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xitong's face turned ashen, and her whole body was like catkins in the wind, shivering and crumbling. She didn't expect that after she had done so much, she would fall short in the end.
She originally thought she had made the right move, but the recent changes were beyond her expectations. She must be more cautious in every move she makes next, and must not be careless.
Zhao Xitong, filled with jealousy, went upstairs and started the day's work restlessly.
In the afternoon, after Zhao Xitong finished her day's work, she had an idea in her mind. She planned to ask Chu Wan out for a talk at the weekend.
Since the variable lies with Chu Wan, she will seek a breakthrough from Chu Wan to turn things around and change the passive situation before her.
Here, Huo Yanzheng drove away from the Huo family and returned to the imperial garden.
When Huo Yanzheng's car stopped, Chu Wan ran forward with a smile: "Yan Zheng, I knew you would be back at this time, so I have been standing here waiting for you to get off work."
Chu Wan stood at the door of the villa, looking expectantly at the passing vehicles. After waiting for a while, she saw the familiar Maybach slowly approaching.
Huo Yanzheng got out of the car and said without changing his expression: "Well, I'm back from get off work."
It was obvious that Huo Yanzheng still had a handsome face, without any smile, and his facial features were serious, hiding a touch of masculine determination, but his steady voice was deliberately soft, revealing a gentleness that he did not know he had.
Chu Wan was originally going to hold Huo Yanzheng's arm as usual and walk into the villa side by side with Huo Yanzheng. However, when Chu Wan stood beside Huo Yanzheng, Chu Wan was startled.
The sweet smile on her face stopped, and her expression began to look unnatural. Fortunately, it only took a moment for Chu Wan to recover.
But Huo Yanzheng still noticed something strange about Chu Wan, "Why were you so stunned just now?"
Chu Wan raised her arm and held Huo Yanzheng, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I noticed something different about you today."
Different from the quiet, dry and light cold fragrance that has always been exuded from Huo Yanzheng's body, today Huo Yanzheng's body is filled with a slightly stronger scent of perfume.
It's not pungent, but it's hard to ignore.
This perfume smell was familiar to Chu Wan, as if she had smelled it somewhere before.
But thinking about it, I couldn't remember where she had smelled it.
But what can be confirmed is that although Zhao Xitong can do this kind of cheap trick that is not on the table, the smell of perfume is not what Zhao Xitong is used to.
"What's different?" His expression did not change. Under the sword-shaped eyebrows that slanted into his temples were a pair of sharp eagle eyes, deep but shining with a soft light.
Huo Yanzheng's voice is deep and full of charm, as if soaked in a jar of aged wine. As time goes by, the smell becomes purer and richer, making people intoxicated.
Even though Chu Wan didn't have to smell it deliberately, the smell of perfume mixed with the wind and came towards her, making her feel slightly uncomfortable.
If she didn't trust Huo Yanzheng enough, Chu Wan might not be able to suppress her temper and question him angrily at this moment.
