Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

"Stop..." Xu Xiaoxiao shouted. Her voice was not loud, but it carried a force that could not be ignored, causing Chen Xia, who had already stood up and was about to leave, to stop involuntarily.

"What?" Chen Xia turned around, frowning, her tone full of impatience and contempt, "What else do you want?"

Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes were firm as she walked towards Chen Xia step by step. There was an unquestionable light in her eyes: "Apologize to my friend."

Although her voice was soft, every word was powerful, as if every word hit Chen Xia's heart.

"Apologize? Give it to her?" Chen Xia seemed to have heard something funny. She pointed at Xiao Mei with an expression of disbelief on her face. "Why? Does she deserve it? A pastry maker deserves my apology?"

Chen Xia's words were full of contempt for Xiaomei's profession and disdain for Xu Xiaoxiao's request, but she obviously underestimated Xu Xiaoxiao's determination.

Xu Xiaoxiao slowly walked up to Chen Xia, her eyes revealing a firmness that could not be refuted: "Chen Xia, don't forget that no matter what job you do, everyone is equal. Xiaomei is my friend, and she has the right to be respected by you. You must apologize for speaking rudely to her today."

Xu Xiaoxiao's words were calm and powerful, and every word was like a sharp knife, cutting Chen Xia's seemingly solid pride.

The atmosphere in the cafe suddenly became solemn, and the surrounding customers unconsciously cast curious glances.

Chen Xia's face turned pale and blue. She obviously did not expect Xu Xiaoxiao to be so persistent for Xiaomei.

"Don't want to? Humph! Very good! Then I'll go ask Fu Yanchen to see if all the assistants under him are as arrogant and domineering as you! Sister Su Rou is not as arrogant as you!" Xu Xiaoxiao sneered.

Chen Xia clenched her teeth tightly, and she looked as if she wanted to eat the person in front of her alive.

A look of reluctance and anger flashed across her eyes.

I really didn't expect that this woman named Xu Xiaoxiao was not only spoiled by the high and mighty chairman of their company, but she even knew everything about her immediate boss!

This made Chen Xia feel surprised and angry. After all, in her opinion, Xu Xiaoxiao was just an arrogant person. How could she have so many privileges and information channels?

Thinking of this, Chen Xia's anger burned more and more fiercely.

Xu Xiaoxiao took out her cell phone and looked at Chen Xia. Xiaomei was her friend, and she would not let anyone bully Xiaomei. This time Xiaomei was scolded by Chen Xia because she helped her, and she would stand up for her.

"Do you really want your chairman to know that you...are so reckless and bully the weak outside?"

As Xu Xiaoxiao spoke, she slowly shook the phone in her hand. The screen seemed to be showing some evidence that could threaten the other party.

The air at this moment seemed to have frozen, and the surroundings fell into dead silence.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Xia and Xu Xiaoxiao, and everyone was waiting for the outcome of this confrontation.

Time passed by minute by minute, and finally, under Xu Xiaoxiao's unwavering and unflinching gaze, Chen Xia, who had been arrogant, began to feel a little guilty. Her eyes flickered and beads of sweat gradually appeared on her forehead.

Although she was extremely reluctant, she knew that if the chairman really knew what she did outside, the consequences would be absolutely disastrous. She and Fu Yanchen were originally acting, and if the chairman knew that she was doing this here, he would probably fire her immediately.

She is not like her superior Su Rou, who has been with Fu Yanchen since childhood. As long as Su Rou does not touch Fu Yanchen's bottom line, Fu Yanchen will not fire her. She is different.

After a fierce ideological struggle, Chen Xia finally chose to compromise.

She slowly lowered her head like a defeated rooster, no longer having the arrogance and domineering attitude she had before.

Then, she said to Xiaomei in a trembling voice: "I'm sorry, Xiaomei, my attitude just now was really bad, please forgive me!"

After saying this, Chen Xia didn't even dare to look up at Xiaomei's reaction, for fear of seeing a hint of dissatisfaction or anger on the other's face.

After all, what she feared most now was to completely anger this unreasonable person in front of her.

Xiaomei snorted coldly, "Hmph, I'll let you go this time. But you'd better remember today's lesson and don't be so arrogant again!" Chen Xia didn't want to talk to them and left.

Xu Xiaoxiao walked up to Xiaomei and whispered, "Actually, you didn't have to be so tough just now. It would be troublesome if she gave up."

Xiaomei smiled nonchalantly and said, "I'm not afraid of her. Besides, I have you supporting me behind me, so what do I have to be afraid of?" Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head helplessly. This kid.

On the other side, Chen Xia left in disgrace, her heart full of resentment.

She gritted her teeth and thought that sooner or later she would find a chance to settle this score, especially since that nosy Xiaomei would not let her off easily.

Returning to the somewhat empty and silent office, she walked in slowly, and every step seemed to step on her troubled heartstrings.

She sighed softly, and forced herself to suppress the surging emotions in her heart. She walked to the table and first carefully sorted out the scattered documents on the table, as if this could also help to sort out her chaotic thoughts a little.

At this time, Fu Yanchen came back from the meeting, "Where's my coffee?"

Chen Xia took a deep breath, turned around, and spoke with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice:

"Chairman, um, I didn't buy it today."

"Um

"Oh! You pissed her off." Fu Yanchen put down the tablet and looked at Chen Xia.

"No, I went to the boss lady's coffee shop and wanted to buy the couple's coffee for you. But I didn't expect that today might be a special day. There were so many couples in the shop. Every couple was leaning on each other, waiting for the sweetness that belonged to them. I waited for a long time, watching the time pass by, but I still couldn't wait for the cup that belonged to us...your cup."

Having said this, she paused slightly, and tears seemed to be flashing in her eyes, but she quickly blinked stubbornly, forcing back the fragility that was about to overflow. Fu Yanchen looked at her without saying a word.

She continued, her voice soft but every word clear: "Madam...she specifically asked me to convey something to you,"

"What did she say?" Fu Yanchen asked, holding his chin with his fingertips.

"Madam said that love in this world is often like a cup of coffee that has been missed. Even if you wait with great anticipation, it will be difficult to find the intoxicating taste of the past."

"Well! And then?" Fu Yanchen was very curious about when his little girl would learn these profound principles.

"She... sincerely hopes that from now on, both of you can live in peace and happiness. You don't need to worry about each other anymore, just live your own lives. No matter how hard you try to save this relationship, or how much effort you put into trying to restore it, her once passionate heart is now like the coffee that is gradually cooling down, and it can never become hot again."

"She begs you to disappear from her sight completely! From now on, you two will be like two stars in the sky, looking at each other from a distance but never meeting again. Please don't leave even the slightest mark in her life trajectory.

After saying this, she seemed to have used up all her strength, and her whole body was a little shaky.

She clenched her hands tightly, her fingertips turned white from the effort, but she still insisted on standing straight.

The air in the office seemed to be frozen, with only her slightly heavy breathing echoing in this quiet space.

Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun slanted in, giving the slightly cold room a faint golden glow.

However, this warmth seemed unable to penetrate the ice in her heart. She looked into the distance with empty eyes, feeling mixed emotions.

After hearing her heavy and resolute words, Fu Yanchen's face suddenly became gloomy as water, as if the sky was covered with dark clouds and a violent storm would erupt at any time.

His eyes were as sharp as knives, shooting straight at Chen Xia in front of him, and his tone was filled with unquestionable coldness: "Chen Xia, tell me honestly, did you say something you shouldn't have said in front of Xiaoxiao? Although she is usually cold, she would never be so decisive. It must be you who is interfering!"

Chen Xia couldn't help but tremble slightly when she heard that. She had never seen the chairman so angry. His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate her, leaving her with nowhere to hide.

She waved her hands quickly, a trace of panic and innocence flashing in her eyes: "Chairman, you misunderstood, I... I just conveyed my wife's intentions truthfully, and I never exaggerated, let alone said anything that was unfavorable to my wife!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen's expression did not ease at all, but became even more gloomy.

He walked slowly to Chen Xia, and every step seemed to step on her heart, making her feel unprecedented pressure. He lowered his head, staring at Chen Xia's eyes with a sharp gaze: "Chen Xia, ask Su Rou, she has been with me for so many years, she should know my temper. What I hate most is that someone is playing tricks behind my back, especially against my family, Xiaoxiao... She is the woman I love most in my life, I will never allow anyone to hurt her, do you understand?"

Chen Xia felt a chill running from her feet to her head. She almost cried, but she could only hold back her tears and nodded repeatedly: "Chairman, I really didn't... Please believe me, I have always been loyal to my wife and would never dare to be disrespectful to her!"

"Chairman, now that things have come to this, your wife's heart has already left you, why do you insist on it so stubbornly? You know, there are countless good women in this world, just like the stars!"

Fu Yanchen stared at the person in front of him. His deep eyes seemed to be filled with a layer of frost, which made people shudder. He said coldly:

"Chen Xia, I have already chosen Xiaoxiao as my only love in this life. Any other woman is nothing but clouds to me and is not worthy of my attention at all!"

Hearing this, Chen Xia's heart trembled. She looked at Fu Yanchen's cold face and firm eyes, and was at a loss for a moment. She wanted to persuade him a few more times, but now she became stammering and incoherent: "Chairman... Chairman, I... I just said that casually, please don't take it to heart."

As she spoke, she lowered her head unconsciously, not daring to look at Fu Yanchen again, for fear of angering him.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, not wanting to understand Chen Xia's ulterior motives.

He knew that the most important thing now was to find out Xiaoxiao's true thoughts, rather than taking his anger out on innocent people.

He turned around slowly, his back looked a little lonely: "Forget it, you go out first. I want to be alone."

Chen Xia felt as if she had been pardoned. She quickly turned around and walked out of the office, leaving Fu Yanchen alone standing there, staring at the gradually darkening sky outside the window.

His heart was full of doubts and anxieties. He didn't know why Xiaoxiao suddenly made such a decision, and he didn't know how to face this cruel reality.

He only knew that his world...from now on, there would probably never be the sweetness and warmth that belonged to them again.

Imperial Capital

Fu Yanchen called. His voice was low and firm, with a dignity that could not be refused: "Su Rou, you should deal with the matter in the imperial capital as soon as possible, and then come to Linshi."

Su Rou's heart trembled slightly when she heard this.

She knew that Fu Yanchen would not easily summon her so urgently. There must be something important that she needed to handle personally.

She responded softly and hung up the phone, but did not move immediately. Instead, she fell into deep thought, her eyes becoming a little blurry.

Ah Su approached Su Rou with a playful smile on his face, and asked tentatively: "Sister Su Rou, what's wrong? You answered my uncle's call and seemed to have lost your soul. Could it be... that he scolded you again?"

Su Rou came to her senses after hearing this, glared at Ah Su, and said in a feigned anger: "What nonsense are you talking about, kid! Your uncle...he just asked me to go to Lin City as soon as possible. I guess there is something urgent."

Seeing this, Ah Su knew that Su Rou was not really angry, so he became even more presumptuous and said with a grin:

"Oh, I knew my uncle couldn't leave you. Look, he couldn't wait to call you back after just a few days of absence. Sister Su Rou, do you think my uncle should give you the 'Best Employee Award'?"

Su Rou was amused by his words and couldn't help but smile.

She patted Ah Su lightly and scolded him with a smile: "You kid, you only know how to talk nonsense! Go to work and stop making trouble here."

Seeing this, Asu stopped pestering him and left the office laughing.

Su Rou fell into deep thought again. She knew that this trip to Lin City might not be as simple as Asu thought.

Why was Fu Yanchen summoned urgently?
