Huo Yunting's eyes flashed with coldness, and he whispered: "Yes."
Xiao Muzhen felt that his expression was a little strange, but seeing that his face was ugly and he looked like he didn't want to say more, she didn't continue to ask.
After dinner, Huo Yunting went back to the study to do some work. Xiao Muzhen was going to watch TV in the living room, but his cell phone suddenly rang.
When she saw it was Yan Nan, doubts flashed in her eyes.
As soon as the call was connected, Yan Nan's anxious voice came over.
"Design Xiao, I have a document left in the office. It's the design draft you submitted before. Now the client wants to see it. Do you have the original copy there?"
"Yes, I will scan it and send it to you."
"Okay, good work."
"fine."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Muzhen took the documents and went to the study.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard Huo Yunting's cold voice coming from inside.
"Let's check if the Xiao family has done anything illegal or criminal over the years. I want to know the results within three days!"
Xiao Muzhen's body suddenly paused, a flash of disbelief flashed in her eyes, and her hand holding the design draft tightened unconsciously.
Why does Huo Yunting want to investigate the Xiao family?
The Huo family and the Xiao family are rivals in business. Although they have had some work interactions recently, they only wanted to deal with Jin Yue.
Once Jinyue falls, Huo and Xiao will definitely start to seize the market again soon.
Thinking of this, Xiao Muzhen's face darkened and she opened the study door directly.
Huo Yunting looked over with a dark and cold look. After seeing clearly that the person standing outside the door was Xiao Muzhen, the coldness on his face disappeared and was replaced by surprise.
"I have something else to do here, so I won't tell you anymore."
He hung up the phone, stood up and walked to Xiao Muzhen, "Zhenzhen, why are you here? What's the matter?"
Xiao Muzhen looked at him and said word by word: "I just heard you were asking people to check the Xiao family's criminal records. Are you planning to deal with the Xiao family?"
Seeing the coldness in her eyes, Huo Yunting couldn't help but frown, "This is the kind of person I am in your eyes?!"
"If it wasn't to deal with Mr. Xiao, I can't think of any reason for you to investigate this kind of thing."
Huo Yunting's eyes instantly darkened a bit, and he whispered: "I can't tell you yet, but what I can guarantee is that I will never deal with the Xiao family, because I know that the Xiao family is very important to you! "
Seeing the seriousness in his eyes, Xiao Muzhen pursed her lips and said, "If it's not for some shady purpose, why can't you tell me now?"
"Give me a little more time. After I take care of everything, I will explain it to you. Before that, give me a little trust, okay?!"
Xiao Muzhen was silent for a while and said coldly: "No, I can't gamble with them. If you don't tell me the reason, I will tell my dad about it."
A flash of disappointment flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes. Although the two were back together, Xiao Muzhen never trusted him wholeheartedly.
In order to solve all the problems between himself and Xiao Muzhen, he also hid a lot of things from her.
"If you want to say something, just go ahead and say it."
After saying that, Huo Yunting lowered his eyes and planned to leave.
A flash of anger flashed in Xiao Muzhen's eyes, she stopped him and gritted her teeth: "Is it so difficult for you to explain?"
"I have a reason that I can't explain now. Since you don't want to believe me, I have nothing to say."
He pushed Xiao Muzhen's hand away and said slowly: "I still have some unfinished work in the company, so I won't come back to sleep tonight. You should go to bed early."
"Huo Yunting! Stop! Is this your attitude towards solving problems?!"
Huo Yunting's back froze for a moment, but he didn't look back and left quickly.
It wasn't until his back disappeared from her sight that Xiao Muzhen realized and chased him out.
However, as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Huo Yunting driving away, and soon the black Maybach disappeared from sight.
From beginning to end, he didn't even look at her.
Xiao Muzhen bit her lower lip, and a layer of moisture gradually appeared in her eyes.
This was the first quarrel between the two after they reconciled.
She also wants to believe him, but the Xiao family is too important to her, she can't gamble!
She took out her cell phone and called Xiao Tuo and told him that Huo Yunting was checking the Xiao family. She hung up the phone directly.
She didn't regret telling Xiao Tuo about this, but there were constant pains in her heart, which made her burst into tears.
After a long time, a cell phone rang.
Xiao Muzhen looked down and found that it was Yan Nan. Then she realized that she had forgotten to send him the scan of the design drawing.
She wiped her tears and answered the call, whispering: "Manager Yan, I'm sorry, something happened to me just now. I will scan and send it to you immediately. It will take three minutes."
The phone was quiet for a few seconds before Yan Nan's slightly worried voice came over.
"Are you crying?"
Xiao Muzhen pursed her lips and said, "No, I just have a cold. I'll go and send you the documents first."
After passing the document to Yan Nan, Xiao Muzhen returned to the living room and sat on the sofa in a daze.
Soon, Yan Nan called again.
"Designer Xiao, if you have anything unhappy, you can tell me, maybe I can help you."
"Manager Yan, no, thank you for your concern, but I don't like my colleagues to live a life that is very similar to mine. If there is nothing else, that's it."
After saying that, Xiao Muzhen hung up the phone without waiting for him to speak.
Xiao Muzhen didn't go back to the bedroom to sleep all night, but Huo Yunting didn't come back either.
Early the next morning, she got up from the sofa, washed up, and went directly to the company without even eating breakfast.
In the next two days, Huo Yunting did not come back and the two of them had no contact, as if they had become two parallel lines that did not intersect.
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Yan Nan offered to give her two days off, but Xiao Muzhen refused.
"Manager Yan, don't worry, I will adjust my mentality as soon as possible and it will not affect my work."
Yan Nan nodded, "Okay, there is a dinner party tonight, and the attendees are some famous designers in the capital. It will be good for you to come with me and get to know a few more designers."
"Manager Yan, I..."
Seeing that she wanted to refuse, Yan Nan interrupted her directly and said: "Designer Xiao, just think of it as a way to relax and change your mood."
After a few seconds of silence, Xiao Muzhen finally nodded and said, "Okay."
"Okay, then I'll take you there with me after get off work."
"Ah."
Soon it was evening, and Xiao Muzhen took Yan Nan's car to the venue.
As soon as the two of them walked in, Xiao Muzhen's eyes unconsciously fell on the two figures talking in the center of the banquet hall.
Huo Yunting was wearing a black suit and a sky-blue tie tonight. He was holding a glass of wine in his hand. He had a slender figure and a scornful temperament in his movements, making him unknowingly the focus of the crowd.
The woman standing next to him was petite, wearing a light blue tube top skirt, smiling sweetly, and looking at him with affection in her eyes.
The two seemed like a match made in heaven. This scene deeply hurt Xiao Muzhen's eyes.
