The Warm Wife of a Rich Family: The CEO's No. 1 New Favorite

It's not that Xiaochi didn't discover his abnormality, but the past is like a thorn, and until she tells the truth, the thorn will never be pulled out, and the stabbed wound will never heal.

She felt physically and mentally exhausted inexplicably. After leaving the company, Xiaochi stopped a taxi at the door and went home directly, wanting to lie down on the comfortable and soft bed at home early.

After a long time, the vehicle stopped at the gate of the community, but she was startled when she saw an ambulance with red and blue lights flashing in the dark.

She walked slowly towards the stairs, and suddenly the medical staff hurried down the corridor carrying a stretcher.

The face on the stretcher was a bit familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.But the face as pale as a piece of white paper and the tightly closed eyes made people shudder, Xiaochi couldn't help shivering, and she quickly rubbed her arms covered in goose bumps with her hands.

Xiaochi watched the ambulance drive away, and then continued to walk up the stairs, his head was full of doubts.

"Hey, Xiaochi, are you off work?" A middle-aged woman's voice came from behind her. Xiaochi turned around and saw that it was Zhang Ma, her neighbor who had a good relationship with her.

"Yes, Mama Zhang, it's so late, where did you just come back from?" Xiaochi greeted warmly.

"Hey, I didn't go anywhere. I was chatting with Mrs. Li and the others just now." Mama Zhang paused, "Hey, Xiaochi, did you see someone being carried down just now?"

"Yeah, I saw it, and I saw that the face on the stretcher was quite familiar. What happened?" Xiaochi asked curiously.

"Oh, I was discussing this with Mrs. Li and the others just now," Mama Zhang's tone suddenly became low and mysterious, "You don't know?" She asked back.

Koike shook his head lightly.

"Let me tell you," Zhang's mother pulled her to the side of the corridor, "the person on the stretcher is old man Zhou, he lives in the building next to us, and the landlord was going to visit him shortly before you came back. The house checked the water meter, but no one answered after knocking on the door for a long time, so the landlord had to open the door with a spare key, only to find that old man Zhou was lying stiff on his big bed, the landlord was a little puzzled, knocking on the door so loud , why hasn’t he been woken up yet? He walked in and tried to wake him up, and guess what?”

"What's the matter?" Xiaochi's appetite was whetted by her words.

"As soon as he pushed, he found that Old Man Zhou's whole body was icy cold, and then he found that he didn't even seem to be breathing. The landlord was so scared that he took a few steps back, and immediately called an ambulance."

"I heard that it is very likely that he is dead." Mama Zhang added.

"How did you die?" Xiaochi became more and more curious, and asked eagerly.

"I'm not too sure about this. I heard that there are no injuries on his body. He probably died suddenly. It seems that he died several days before he was discovered."

"..." Xiaochi's eyes widened in shock. For the first time, she felt that death was so close to her.

"Hey, this is probably retribution, right?" Zhang Ma sighed deeply.

"Why do you say that?" Xiaochi asked suspiciously.

"Don't you know about old man Zhou?" The other party was even more surprised when he heard Xiaochi's question.

"I don't know." Xiaochi had to admit that except for the neighbors around him, he basically had no contact with others.

"Let me tell you, old man Zhou didn't always live alone. He used to have a wife. Her wife was very kind, very kind, and very talkative. We used to play mahjong together. She often said that she Her husband never quarreled, and we often joked with her that she had a good life and married a good husband. But the truth is always hard to accept.”

"what happened?"

"That old man Zhou loves old cows and eats young grass, and takes the couple's pension to raise a little pretty girl outside. After his wife found out about this, she had a heart attack and died, but he Don't take it seriously, people at such an age still often appear in romantic places, you say... how cheap is this person?" Zhang Ma was angry and annoyed, and her words became more and more excited.

"..." Xiaochi remained silent, and gently stroked Mama Zhang's back to express comfort.

"Hey, you said that this person just doesn't need to do bad things. Look, look, this is called retribution! It's not that you don't want to repay, it's not time yet!"

After Xiaochi listened, her whole body froze in place like a piece of wood. She couldn't help but think of herself, what she had done, and the past that she couldn't bear to look back on. A few beads of cold sweat broke out.

"What's the matter, Xiaochi?" Mama Zhang asked looking at Xiaochi's dull eyes.

"No...it's okay, Mama Zhang, let's go up together!" Xiaochi reacted and said with a small smile.

When he arrived at the house, Xiaochi walked straight into the room, as if venting his anger, he slammed on the bed in the room by himself, but he couldn't calm down for a long time.

It’s not that I didn’t report it, it’s not time yet! Zhang’s mother’s words have been lingering in her mind, lingering.

Thinking of his recent experience, unlucky enough to drink cold water would clog his teeth, Xiaochi had to suspect that this was the retribution he deserved.

Is it really worthwhile to hurt others for the sake of your own so-called happiness?When will I become the person I hate the most - a selfish person!
Big tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, but Xiaochi didn't realize it.

No, it wasn't worth it! Something growled at her.

She doesn't want to endure this kind of painful torture anymore, she doesn't want to endure the life of being terrified every day, she doesn't want to endure avoiding her beloved every day!
She wants to change all this! She wants to do something slightly better. Although she cannot make up for the consequences she caused, she still decides to do it, and she wants to tell Zuo An the truth!
Xiaochi's excited chest was beating up and down, and she couldn't wait to meet her challenge.

But in fact, the easier it is to say, the harder it seems to be done.

After hesitating for a long time, she finally pressed the dial button on Zuoan's number with her trembling finger.

"Beep beep..." The phone rang several times before the other party answered.

"Hey, Xiaochi, what's the matter so late?" Zuo An's voice still sounded so gentle, but now Xiaochi was so nervous that his palms were sweating.

"I...I have something to tell you." Xiaochi finally said this sentence in a panic, which represented the first step to success.

"You said." Zuo An replied, not seeming curious.

"I..." Xiaochi paused for a long time, mustered up the courage to speak, but was interrupted by Zuo An.

"Wait a minute, my colleague is anxious to find me something, please wait for me a little bit." Zuo An said suddenly.

Xiaochi waited quietly, at that moment, she suddenly felt scared.

If Zuo An knew the truth, he would definitely start to test me, start to reject me, and even hate me!
During the few minutes Zuo An was busy, Xiaochi had imagined hundreds of endings, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened and cowardly she became.

The next second, she pressed the hang up button.

"Liu Yiyi, I'll give you 10 minutes, you come over here right away, see you at the old place!"

Wen Xinxin said aggressively, her body trembling with anger, she was clutching the phone tightly, and her teeth made a slight creaking sound due to the forceful clenching.

Wen Xinxin did not expect that the buyer introduced by Liu Yiyi turned out to be such a person!
Now that she managed to escape, it was fine if the deal was not concluded, but the design draft was left in the private room of the bar by herself, so she was naturally furious.

"Did you take the explosives early in the morning? I haven't woken up yet. I'll tell you when I wake up." Liu Yiyi rubbed her sleepy eyes and yawned.

"Liu Yiyi, let me tell you again, I'll give you 10 minutes, if you don't come over within 10 minutes, I'll go pick you up myself!"

Wen Xinxin was smoked by Liu Yiyi's seven orifices, and almost roared towards the phone.

"I got it, I got it, I'm rushing over now! It's so noisy!" Probably because she got angry when she got up, Liu Yiyi wasn't afraid of her roar at all, on the contrary, she felt very annoyed, she rolled her eyes and hung up Cut off the phone.

Wen Xinxin's thin lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but there was only beeping on the phone.

She threw the phone on the table and folded her hands in front of her chest, a cold light like a sharp blade refracted in her eyes.

Many unexpected things made her angry, and Liu Yiyi's attitude made her even more frustrated.

"Tell me, my eldest lady, what's the matter this time?" Liu Yiyi walked into the store wearing sunglasses.

"Hmph, are you ashamed to ask what's the matter?" Wen Xinxin didn't answer, but sneered instead, and it wasn't hard to detect the sarcasm in his tone.

"How would I know if you didn't tell me?" Liu Yiyi said angrily, she had no idea where Wen Xinxin's anger came from.

"Yesterday I... my friend was almost wiped out by that bald old man in the Mediterranean you introduced. Are you sure you don't need to explain something? Didn't you say that the person you introduced was absolutely trustworthy?"

The more Wen Xinxin talked, the more excited he became, and finally turned into a serious question.

"What do you mean?"

Liu Yiyi frowned, as if he was a little puzzled, but also as if he didn't believe it.

"What do you mean? That's what it means! Your Master Feng drugged the wine. If my friend hadn't brought anti-wolf spray in advance, she might still be in the bar now."

Wen Xinxin said sternly.

"Impossible." Liu Yiyi said in a low voice, as if she was thinking about something, or simply muttering to herself.

"What do you mean? What is impossible? You mean I'm lying to you?" Now it was Wen Xinxin's turn to be puzzled.

"No, no," Liu Yiyi vehemently denied, as if she only realized the seriousness of the matter now, "Let me tell you the truth, Master Feng is my cousin, although he eats black and white, he is really not a good person. But I really didn't think that since he didn't give me face so much, he would attack your friend."
