Joey smiled slightly: "Mr. Lu, this is Mrs. Lu's decision. I have no right to interfere."
Besides, she didn't want to either.
Lu Wenzhou stared at her cold face, his eyes slightly raised.
"Joy, you know the significance of who I bring to the banquet for this year's anniversary celebration. Why aren't you jealous?"
There was still no wave in Joey's tone.
"Mr. Lu, Canary has no right to care about you. I only need to be your bed partner and make sure to please you in bed. As for the rest, I have no right to interfere, right?"
The words she spoke were gentle and nice, but every word was like a thorn, piercing deeply into Lu Wenzhou's heart.
As Lu Wenzhou hugged her, his mind was filled with images of when Joey was jealous.
What he wants is that kind of Joey, not the current Joey who is obedient and can't find anything wrong with him.
He stroked Joey's head gently: "Come with me to try on dresses after get off work."
"Mr. Lu, my dress has been chosen. You should accompany Miss Song."
"Joy, your dad is in poor health. Do you really think his condition won't relapse after he finds out about our relationship?"
Joey stopped insisting.
Lu Wenzhou knew that her Achilles' heel was her father.
She responded calmly: "Okay, I will go. I still have a lot of things to do, so I'll leave first."
She pushed Lu Wenzhou away and turned to leave.
After a busy day, Joy finally finished work at 6pm. After saying goodbye to her colleagues, she headed to the parking lot alone.
Just as she walked to the car, she saw Xia Nan running towards her with a smile, "Yiyi, mom has been waiting for you for a long time. Take mom home and she will cook your favorite braised seabass."
She wanted to go over and hold Joey's hand, but she dodged him.
"I don't have a mother. She died seven years ago."
After saying that, she wanted to drive away, but heard the woman threatening her.
"Joy, give me two million, or I'll go find your dad."
Joey grabbed Xia Nan by the collar and said in a cold voice: "If you dare to take advantage of my father, believe it or not, I will kill you!"
"Oh, I can't live anymore. My biological daughter not only disowns me, she also wants to kill me."
There were many colleagues passing by in the underground garage. When she made such a fuss, many people looked over.
Joy didn't want people to know she had such a mother.
He grabbed Xia Nan by the collar, put her into the car, and drove away.
Song Qingya, who had been hiding in the dark, smiled eerily as she watched the car leave.
"Joy, you can't stand it at the beginning? The best is yet to come, just wait."
Joey drove the car to a quiet place and stopped.
Looking at Xia Nan with anger on his face: "There are half a million here, take the money and get out of here!"
Xia Nan picked up the card with a smile on her face.
"You are being supported by that big boss Lu Wenzhou, how can you still have no money to spend? If he doesn't give it to you, just let him do it a few more times.
They are all for sale. How can you be better than me? Don't pretend to be so noble. If men don't like it, they like to go crazy. "
Joey gritted his molars and said, "Get out!"
Xia Nan immediately opened the car door and smiled ghostly: "If you don't give me the remaining money, I will go find your dad. You can figure it out yourself."
After saying that, she slammed the car door and walked away alone with high heels and graceful steps.
Joey's mind was filled with memories from seven years ago.
Tears slid down her cheeks uncontrollably. She wanted to wipe them away, but she didn't expect more and more tears to fall down her face.
She had never felt so powerless.
That was her biological mother, why did she become like this.
She had caused her father to almost go bankrupt, severely damaged his heart, and caused her to suffer from severe depression and even lose her voice.
Why hasn't she let them go after so many years?
Joey didn't know how long he cried until his cell phone rang in his bag.
She immediately gathered her emotions and pressed answer.
"Joy, didn't you say you were going to try on a dress? Where were you?"
Joey pretended to be calm and said, "I'll go there by myself. I'm already halfway there."
"Okay, wait for me at the door."
After hanging up the phone, Joey adjusted her makeup. She didn't want Lu Wenzhou to know all this.
But she overestimated her abilities.
She was shaking all over, her hands and feet were cold, and she couldn't drive at all.
She felt like she was falling into a dark pool again, and her world was about to become endlessly dark.
She lay limply in the car.
She didn't know how long it had been before she heard that familiar voice.
It was the voice that pulled her back from the brink of death.
"Joy, it's me, open the door."
Joey wanted to see Lu Wenzhou more than he did right now.
She immediately opened the car door and threw herself into his arms, tears streaming down her face instantly.
But before he could say a word, he fainted.
"Joy, Joey!"
Lu Wenzhou took her down from the driver's seat and saw that she was covered in cold sweat and her face was pale.
His two little hands were like ice cubes, and his body was still shaking.
Lu Wenzhou immediately held her in his arms, stroking her head with his big hands.
Moist and hot lips kissed her forehead.
"It's okay, let's go home."
Joey was held in Lu Wenzhou's arms and got into the car. Smelling his familiar scent and feeling his hot body, she slowly regained consciousness.
But the hand holding Lu Wenzhou refused to let go, and he kept sobbing.
"I didn't seduce them, I'm not a bitch."
She cried and her body shook.
After hearing these words, Lu Wenzhou realized that there was a reason for all of Joey's abnormalities.
He immediately ordered Chen Zhuo: "Go and check who she met just now."
Lu Wenzhou carried Joey home, helped her take a bath, and helped her dry her hair.
But throughout, Joey said nothing.
Just sitting quietly in the room, eyes unfocused.
Seeing Joey like this, Lu Wenzhou's heart hurt for no reason.
He gently stroked her cheek and said hoarsely: "Would you like to sleep?"
Joey nodded numbly, but was reluctant to let go of his hand.
Lu Wenzhou rarely saw such a clingy Joey. He lowered his head and kissed her lips and said hoarsely, "Want me to sleep with you?"
Joey suddenly flashed his big eyes and nodded heavily.
She pulled Lu Wenzhou onto the bed and gently patted the pillow next to her, signaling for him to lie down.
Lu Wenzhou knew that Joey had a pathological reaction.
But even so, he still felt satisfied in his heart.
He lay next to Joey, held her in his arms, caressed her back with his big hands, and said in a low voice: "Joy, will you be so good from now on?"
So clinging to him, so in need of his company.
Joey nodded silently in his arms.
Lu Wenzhou smiled as if he was very satisfied, "Go to sleep, everything will be over in the morning."
He held her in his arms and patted her back gently.
It wasn't until late at night that Joey slowly fell asleep.
Lu Wenzhou's cell phone rang. He was about to leave when Joey hugged him.
A voice almost pleading sounded in his ears: "Brother Ninth, don't leave me, okay?"
