Zhuli felt inexplicably depressed, and her drooped eyelids kept chattering.
"So difficult to answer?"
Jing Huaizhi didn't get angry, and slowly ran his hand through her hair to pick up a handful at random.
"Since you don't know, then stay with me."
He spoke in a leisurely and slow tone.
She was obviously shocked by his words, and for a moment she couldn't hear anything but felt a buzzing in her ears.
My heart skipped a beat.
This state lasted for a long time.
"Boss, you didn't say that on purpose because you didn't want to pay the balance, right?"
Zhuli pretended to be serious and smiled distantly.
"As expected, rich people are stingy..."
Before he could finish speaking, someone grabbed his neck.
The man pinched her chin and forced her lowered head to look at him.
"Don't act stupid."
His expression darkened slightly, without his usual tone of teasing her.
Wrapped in the familiar breath and heat, Zhuli almost agreed.
Momo shook her head in her mind. She hadn't told him that yet. If he still said the same thing after she finished speaking, she would definitely agree.
It's just that she's a little scared right now.
Jing Huaizhi turned his head, brought the smell of tobacco close to her earlobe and blew lightly.
She was so excited by him, wasn't being with him exactly what she wanted?
"But if Youyou's mother comes back..."
Zhuli was worried and scared and slowly asked the question that she had been paying attention to.
"She's not coming back."
Jing Huaizhi's bottomless eyes were still staring at her.
She kept sliding down, trying to find a crack in the ground for her to slip into.
good.
His lips opened and closed and he was about to spit out the word he was thinking about.
A gloomy and cold voice shouted from the deepest part of her heart: "Zhuli, you can only marry me in this life."
"Your reputation is already bad. Which man in the neighborhood would like you?"
"Zhuli, no man in this world will want you!"
She covered her ears with her hands and closed her eyes.
"That's not the case, no, no!"
Her body became weak, and if the man behind the wheel hadn't held her hand, she would have fallen under the seat again.
"What's wrong?"
Jing Huaizhi frowned and his voice was slightly hoarse.
When he raised his head again, Zhuli's eyes were filled with watery light.
He held her fair cheek in his big palm, and tears the size of soybeans fell on his palm one by one.
"I...I can't be with you."
Although she spoke vaguely, the man next to her could still hear her clearly.
He rubbed her cheek with his fingertips, and his tone could not be more gentle: "Why can't you be with me? Huh?"
Zhuli didn't expect that he was not angry but asked her the reason so good-naturedly.
"I..."
"I just...can't..."
Her face was stained with tears, and she wiped them away with the back of her hand.
Unexpectedly, it was smeared all over his face and he instantly turned into a little cat.
He was amused by her look and laughed out loud: "Then give me a chance and think about it, right?"
Zhuli raised his head and held the fingers that were still wiping his tears.
He nodded dully.
In the corner of the playground, Su Zhiyan's eyes were flashing with uncontrollable fire of ignorance.
"Zhuli, you are just trying to get in trouble with me!"
"Why, all the men I like like you!"
"Why!"
The empty playground was deserted at the moment, so no one would hear her if she shouted loudly.

Su Zhiyan, who was still angry, suddenly realized that she could finally gain a foothold in Beijing.

Mu Airu was a little more awake today than she had been some time ago, and her eyes were full of ferocity and irritability.
"It's useless to keep a disobedient dog around. It's better to kill it and eat its meat."
Leaning against the bedside, she gave an ultimatum to the person on the other end of the phone with a pale face.
Jiang Zhizi naturally understood the meaning of her words, and her heart was as sharp as a knife.
"Miss Mu, I'm sorry, I only found out about Mr. Jing and her a few days ago..."
"enough!"
Mu Airu interrupted sharply and snorted several times.
Waving to the people standing beside the hospital bed, the servants nodded and left.
A few minutes later, a woman wearing a black hood appeared.
The hood was lifted, and the servant pulled away the rag stuffed in the woman's mouth. She looked at the woman opposite in panic.
Mu Airu threw the phone to the ground, expressionless: "Let's say goodbye to her for the last time."
"Miss Mu, I was wrong, please don't hurt my sister!"
"I will definitely listen to you from now on, and I will never change my mind!"
"I swear!"
Jiang Gardenia lost her usual calmness and composure, and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, circling around the room.
She never expected that she would discover her lie so quickly.
Mu Airu said nothing, folding her arms and waiting for time.
"Miss Mu, I have a way to completely make that woman give up."
Jiang Zhizi's voice trembled, and she anxiously held the receiver, hoping that the person on the other side would say something.
Mu Airu seemed to be a little interested in what she said and blinked her eyelashes.
"tell me the story."
...
The phone was hung up, and she tapped her chin on the woman kneeling beside the bed.
The servant understood what he meant, picked up Jiang Xiaowan's arms and carried her out again.
Jiang Xiaowan seems to have adapted to this kind of life long ago, and she doesn't struggle to be played with like a lifeless doll.
operating room
"What are you doing?"
The miserable scream echoed throughout the corridor, leaving no ripples anywhere.
Qisi Group Operations Department
Zhuli has been on leave for a long time this time, and it feels a bit strange to come back.
Probably everyone witnessed how Jing Huaizhi snatched her away from Qiao Jue.
"Han'er, what projects are you working on recently?"
She turned her chair and tilted her head to look at Qin Haner, who was nearest to her.
Her eyes were clear and she had no intention of telling her what she was busy with.
Wen Qian coughed a few times to remind her.
"Pear, how can you work, you..."
Looking up to meet everyone's gaze, Qin Haner realized that he had said the wrong thing.
"Lizi, Manager Qiao asked to go find him."
He Xiang is like a microphone every time and always only says this.
Zhuli had a warm smile on her face, "Okay."
Everyone couldn't help but sweat for her when they saw her acting like a normal person.
Refusing the leader's confession in the workplace will inevitably result in being judged. Why is she so calm?
"My backer is Mr. Jing, why would I care about a mere operations manager?"
Someone in the crowd said something dissatisfied.
-
"Have all the things at home been taken care of?"
Qiao Jue's expression and tone were still the same as before, as if there was no such thing as a failed confession.
"Everything has been taken care of. Thank you, Manager Qiao, for your concern."
Zhuli answered calmly and did not let that incident affect her attitude towards Qiao Jue at all.
Qiao Jue's face turned cold when he heard the office door being closed.
She must have some unspeakable reason for rejecting him.
