When she returned to the restaurant to eat, her eyes were red, her cheeks seemed to be rouged, and she looked at the man opposite with shy and angry eyes.

"What's wrong?" Han Xiao asked.

"It's okay." She gave him those two words through gritted teeth.

He felt strange. Wasn't it because he didn't let her stay up late to work yesterday? As for why she was so resentful?

Han Xiao coaxed her: "I've already read it. There is still a lot of information on your computer. You can continue today."

Of course she wanted to continue, but not here.

After finishing her meal angrily, she drove to the studio.

As soon as I arrived, I received a call from Xu Jing.

"Are you working alone now?" Xu Jing got straight to the point.

"Yes, I started my own studio, but it's in a completely different field than before." Xia Taozhi knew how to avoid suspicion and made it clear first without the other party asking.

"That's very good."

Xu Jing got the answer she wanted without asking any more questions, and secretly sighed that it was still more comfortable to chat with Xia Taozhi.

Despite her young age, Bingxue is smart and knows the elegant meaning of string music.

"How are you doing, Sister Jing? Is there a better place to go after leaving Ruifeng?" she asked with concern.

"It's not bad. I got a job, but I won't starve to death anyway. But it's impossible to be as prosperous as before..." Xu Jing's voice deepened.

Xia Taozhi felt a little unhappy.

She had long known that the Ruifeng Group was about to collapse, but she had no way of telling Xu Jing in advance.

This made her feel deeply guilty.

"Sister Jing, are you free this weekend? I would like to treat you to dinner and chat together." She took the initiative to invite you.

"Okay, I'm worried about no one to talk to. How about Saturday?"

"No problem. Sister Jing, let's choose a place. My ability to choose a restaurant is not as good as yours."

Xu Jing laughed heartily: "Then I won't be polite to you. You are Mrs. Han now. You have chosen a poor place that is not worthy of your status."

For some reason, Xia Taozhi always felt that there seemed to be something else in this sentence.

After ending the call, she thought for a moment and decided to get to work first.

The sky is getting dark, and it’s time for the tired birds to return to the forest.

She hurried back to Fuhai Garden, expecting to miss meeting Han Xiao. Unexpectedly, the man followed her and walked into the house together.

Auntie has already prepared dinner, which is sumptuously placed on the entire dining table.

There were only two of them in the whole family, so eating so much seemed a bit wasteful.

She frowned slightly and said nothing.

While eating quietly, she remembered what she had discovered in the morning and suddenly couldn't eat.

He noticed something was wrong with her expression and sneered twice: "If you have something to say, just say it, don't hold yourself back."

Xia Taozhi raised his eyes: "You said this, then I will say it."

He gave her a cool look.

She cleared her throat: "Han Xiao, did you secretly kiss me last night? My mouth was swollen from kissing, was it you?"

"Cough cough cough-"

Han Xiao was choked.

She hurried over, patted his back and gave him some cold water.

"Look, you are guilty of being a thief." She slammed the table, "I'm warning you, if you kiss me secretly next time, I will break the contract."

As soon as she said these words, a chill emanated from the man's body. She couldn't help but tighten her back and shut her mouth tightly.

"Broken the contract? You have to think clearly. Now your apparent identity is Mrs. Han, and I have made it public."

As he spoke, he put down the bowls and chopsticks, folded his hands and placed them on his chin. His clear and deep eyes stared at her with a half-smile.

"As long as you dare to do this, you will face the strongest team of lawyers. Mrs. Han, are you ready to litigate with me?"

Xia Tao made a sound in his throat and his eyes widened.

Just kidding, she doesn't want to face Han Xiao!

The atmosphere in the restaurant solidified, and she discovered for the first time that the secret marriage was actually a kind of protection for her, but after it was made public, she was restricted by him.

She hesitated for a while, then sat down again: "I, I don't care about you, I eat!"

Han Xiao smiled: "Eat."

She almost buried her face in the bowl.

He looked at the red tips of her ears and felt amused.

"Here, eat more." He brought another bowl of white and fragrant turbot fish soup to her.

Xia Taozhi:......

She advised herself: Forget it, isn't it just a kiss?It’s not like I’ve never kissed before, so why should I be so serious?

Simply finding some other topic to divert her attention, she asked curiously: "There are so many dishes that the two of us can't finish. If we leave this until tomorrow, many dishes will be inedible. You don't seem to be a wasteful person." , did you specially ask Auntie to prepare so many things?"

"Well, because...someone will be here soon."

"Who is it?" She opened her eyes curiously.

"Uninvited guest." Han Xiao stared at her, "Are you full? When you are full, go back to your room and rest. I won't disturb your work tonight, so if you hear other sounds downstairs, just pretend you didn't hear it. No. You must leave the room, do you understand?"

He seemed very different tonight than usual.

Xia Taozhi didn't dare to ask in detail. After finishing the meal in a hurry, he returned to the room and locked the door.

She felt a little panicked for no reason.

I was able to get into the work at once, but now I can't get into the mood.

After calming down for a while, she heard the sound of a car downstairs.

Quietly looking out through the gap in the curtains, she saw several cars parked in front of the villa, and several middle-aged men got out of the cars.

They are about forty years old, walking steadily, and are accompanied by bodyguards.

She was pounding in her heart—are these people here to see Han Xiao?

But downstairs...he was alone.

In the restaurant, Han Xiao did not move. He moved his finger and pressed the button, and the door opened.

Guests outside the door filed in.

They were all stunned when they saw the rich scene on the dining table.

"It seems that you guessed that we would come tonight." One of them had a rough voice, with a deep coldness.

"Please take a seat, elders. It's rare for you to come here, and Han Xiao can't just entertain you. Good wine and good food are a must."

He spoke in a relaxed tone and looked up at these people, "Some things have to be sat down and talked about slowly to achieve results."

The people looked at each other and finally sat on the chairs prepared by Han Xiao.

"Now that you know, we won't follow you for nothing. You are Asheng's son, and we will not hurt you. Don't worry about this."

The man paused and then said, "However, if you want to take away the Han family's property just like this, I'm afraid we old bones won't agree."

Han Xiao was not surprised.

He put down the bowl and chopsticks slowly, wiped the corners of his mouth gracefully, and said calmly: "I guessed this when I signed the contract. Even if grandpa is willing, you shareholders will not agree. You are afraid that I will touch you. cake, so I couldn’t wait to come and treat me all night long.”

Suddenly, his voice became cold, so cold that it made people panic, "Haha, you really overestimate your capabilities."
