Li Jiu hung up the phone almost instantly.
"Boss...didn't you go to the young mistress's room?"
Huo Zhiyan's eyes were heavy and he just looked at Li Jiu without saying a word, without speaking or looking away, as if waiting for him to explain himself.
Li Jiu smiled bitterly and pulled up a stool for him: "Boss... why don't you sit down and talk?"
Li Jiu, who was still friends with the Shen Congjun brothers just now, turned his back and betrayed his brothers. He said to Huo Zhiyan with certainty: "It was all Old Shen's idea, really!"
"I chatted with him two days ago and told him that all the servants at home were on holiday, and he took matters into his own hands and hinted that the young mistress didn't need to stay in the hospital all the time. She could just go home and take her own medicine."
"Then you told me repeatedly that you must let me bring you back today..."
"The thing... is just this. I didn't participate in anything else. The phone call he made to you has nothing to do with me."
Li Jiu sat with his back straight and looked down at the ground, as if there was something particularly beautiful on the ground.
Anyway, he just doesn’t raise his head.
Huo Zhiyan frowned and hardened his fists: "Okay, you've all learned how to join forces to trap me, right? The auditor will be here tomorrow. If you don't have time, you might as well check the data again. "
By the end of the conversation, my back molars were grinding to the point of burning.
Li Jiu nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, that's what I meant. In this way, boss, I will go back to the company now. I won't sleep tonight and will work overtime to look at the data again."
He said that he was going to get the car keys on the table.
Huo Zhiyan kicked him angrily: "Sit down."
Li Jiu quickly smiled and sat down reluctantly: "What else do you have to say, boss?"
"Go to the safe and wrap up the ruby brooch and send it to Lu Anzhi's room tomorrow." Huo Zhiyan raised his eyes to look at him, tapped the table with his fingers, and paused in his tone: "Just say... the old lady asked you to give it to her. "
Li Jiu made a sound, thought for a moment, then grabbed his hair and asked one more question: "At the last auction, the old lady asked you to give something to the young mistress. You have to say it was from the organizer."
"This time, why did you say it was from the old lady? Boss, can you be more honest?"
Huo Zhiyan looked indifferent: "What can I be honest with her about?"
"You are still a couple now." Li Jiu sighed, with a hint of resentment in his words.
He has been single for 28 years and is now turning 29. He finally found a wife. Even if the old lady is not anxious, he is anxious for the boss.
Moreover, after being together for such a long time, the young lady's character and appearance are all indescribable. The most important thing is that anyone with a discerning eye can see that the boss's attitude towards her is obviously different from other women.
If these two people get along well, it will really happen.
Huo Zhiyan leaned back on the chair, looked at the patio outside the window, and said calmly: "We are just a contract couple, there can be no other relationship."
Li Jiu's face drooped, as if he was holding back what he wanted to say.
Huo Zhiyan raised his eyes, looking arrogant and cold, and said seriously: "I hid the auction from her because I didn't want her to feel that she owed me. I hid it from her this time because I didn't want me to feel that I owed her."
After all, the burns were caused by him.
Huo Zhiyan crossed his arms and hugged his chest: "It's only a year. When I take over the Huo family, she will be of no use. You know I hate being in debt to others."
Li Jiu lowered his eyes, the light in his eyes gradually dissipated, and replied nonchalantly: "Okay, boss, you have the final say."
"So!" Huo Zhiyan turned around and emphasized his tone: "In the future, whether you are still Congjun or the old lady, it is best not to try to interfere with my decision."
"have you understood?"
Huo Zhiyan's tone was very cold, especially when he was giving orders. He was clearly not angry at all, but had a majestic tone that no one else could comment on.
"Understood." Li Jiu nodded heavily. Although he was a little reluctant, he still did not dare to go against the boss's wishes.
He bent down and was about to sit down.
Huo Zhiyan grabbed the keys on the table and threw them at him: "Still not leaving?"
Li Jiu was confused: "Where to go?"
"Who just said you have to work overtime tonight?"
"Holy shit!" Li Jiu wanted to cry: "You're kidding, boss, we've been spinning around for so many days, can you let me get some sleep? There's still a fierce battle to be fought tomorrow."
"Why are you sleeping? Let's go!"
Huo Zhiyan stood up first and patted the collar of his shirt: "Do you want me to drive?"
Li Jiu took the key helplessly: "Let's go, let's go, I'm really scared of you. If you don't want to fall in love, you have to drag me with you. Look, old Shen is about to become a father, and I don't even see a trace of my girlfriend." On."
Huo Zhiyan opened the door and said in a more relaxed tone: "When the dust settles next year, you can find as many women as you want."
"Hey, I'm not greedy. Just one wife is enough." Li Jiu caught up and said, "Boss, is it okay to just leave the young lady at home alone?"
"Is she a three-year-old?"
"No, then...you should always say hello to her."
"Not going."
…
The next day, when Lu Anzhi woke up, the sun was already shining.
She squirmed downstairs and was about to cook a bowl of noodles for herself when she realized that the servants at home were all in place. Sister Zhang had already prepared breakfast and smiled at her while holding milk: "Good morning, young lady." .”
Lu Anzhi rubbed his eyes: "When did you come back?"
Li Si happened to pass by, carrying large and small bags in his hands: "I just came back. We took the car overnight. The young master told us to get home this morning."
He grinned, his white teeth getting even whiter.
Lu Anzhi sat at the dining table and suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "Sister Zhang, I'm really sorry for disturbing your vacation."
Sister Zhang snarled and brought up the newly cooked noodles: "What are you talking about, young lady? Why are you so polite to us? By the way, the young master asked me to change your dressing after breakfast. I will call Dr. Shen first to learn." Just for a moment.”
With that said, he hurriedly left the restaurant.
Seeing the others busy, Lu Anzhi actually lost consciousness for a moment.
She hasn't been to the factory for ten days. Although there are constant WeChat messages and phone calls, she is still a little worried.
After Sister Zhang changed her medicine and gauze, she picked up her phone and made a video call to Chen Mo.
It's eleven o'clock in the morning, which is usually the busiest time of the day, but Chen Mo's call is answered almost instantly.
"Hey, boss, are you discharged from the hospital?" It was still a familiar tone.
Lu Anzhi rubbed his back: "I haven't been discharged from the hospital yet. I'll go home and lie down for a few days. How are you doing today? I'll see what cars are in the workshop."
Chen Mo raised his mobile phone above his head and took a panoramic view of the workshop through the glass of the reception room: "Here, just two cars from old customers came for maintenance. It's been very strange these days. It feels like there are a lot less cars coming in. We are all I can get off work normally."
Lu Anzhi frowned. Fewer cars meant less money.
She sighed and then asked: "I'm not in the store these days, is there anything special?"
Chen Mo shook his head: "Everything is normal."
The phone camera was still shaking in the workshop. Chen Mo seemed to suddenly remember something and suddenly pointed the camera at himself: "There is a customer who is quite strange. He comes here every once in a while and says he is looking for you to see you. If you don’t turn around, leave.”
Lu Anzhi: "Male or female?"
Chen Mo: "The man drives a modified Nissan and says his surname is Huo."
