She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

Shen Hualan and I greeted him at the same time.

"Didn't you say you're going to stay for two days?" She took the trolley case from Zhou Hanzhi's hand and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

Sharp eyes suddenly fell on my face. Zhou Hanzhi frowned and said, "Why is she here?"

The disgust in his tone was clear.

This is about to issue an eviction order.

"I invited Xu Xu to my home," Shen Hualan said confidently, "Be polite."

Zhou Hanzhi glanced at the red wine on the table and frowned deeper: "Drinking again?"

Clearly dissatisfied.

I said calmly: "Drink a little with Auntie."

Zhou Hanzhi had a livid face and looked like he wanted me to explain.

Shen Hualan couldn't stand it anymore and said kindly: "Okay, isn't it just a mistake at work? Isn't that the problem for you?"

She thought the disagreement between me and Zhou Hanzhi was related to work.

But Zhou Hanzhi is so smart. After just one sentence, he smelled something fishy and sneered coldly: "Have you learned how to accuse someone?"

"I……"

"Xuxu said nothing, I guess," Shen Hualan looked like she was defending me, glared at Zhou Hanzhi, and said, "Now that we've talked about it, in my opinion, let's let this matter go."

Zhou Hanzhi refused to give up and said: "You encourage your subordinates to slander others. Shouldn't you give them a lesson?"

I just said a few fair words, but in Zhou Hanzhi's eyes, it was like instigating his subordinates.

I lowered my head and suppressed the unhappiness in my heart.

But Shen Hualan grasped the key point and said in disbelief: "The other person you are talking about could not be Miss Lin, right?"

Zhou Hanzhi was stunned for a moment.

Don’t blame me, it was him who let it slip.

Sure enough, Shen Hualan was in training mode in an instant.

It was really inappropriate for me to stand here, so I carefully said: "Auntie, Mr. Zhou, it's getting late, so I won't bother you."

Shen Hualan put away her anger, pointed at Zhou Hanzhi and said, "It's so late, please give Xu Xu a favor."

"She was thoughtful and must have called for a taxi early in the morning."

I walked along the steps and said, "Yes, we're almost there."

After that, I left.

When I walked out of the big iron gate, I panicked and held on to the green plants at the door, and then I barely stood still.

Red wine has a lot of staying power.

I hailed a taxi as I walked, but this is a suburb and it was difficult to hail a taxi.

In the end, I could only accept my fate and drag my floating legs forward.

At that time, there was a huge temperature difference between day and night between Beijing and Hong Kong. The cool night breeze blew into my collar, making my teeth chatter for a while.

I suddenly thought of the snow-capped mountains Lin Xixi mentioned on the phone, prank-like, telling myself that I was admiring the snow scenery.

A person.

But at this moment, a bright light shone inexplicably from behind. I stopped in confusion and saw that the car had stopped beside me.

The car window slowly moved down, revealing the man's sharp profile.

Well, he has good bones and smooth facial lines. He is a handsome man.

This appearance is a bit like the cold and ruthless cold jade Buddha in my memory.

"boarding."

The Buddha also talked to me.

I raised the corners of my mouth and smiled: "My Buddha has finally come to save me."

In the passenger seat, I tilted my head and looked at the hands tightly clenched on the steering wheel. The more I looked at them, the more familiar they seemed.

Slender and white, they resemble Zhou Hanzhi's hands.

"Are the snow-capped mountains beautiful?"

"How much did you drink?"

No answer.

I turned away depressed and looked quietly out of the car window, and then heard Zhou Hanzhi say: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, take back those little thoughts."

I closed my eyes, took a breath, and asked, "What am I thinking?"

The man's voice was cold: "I want to save the country through curves, but I don't even check whether the route is right."

Oh, it turns out he knows.

You really can't hide anything from him.

I am not afraid of boiling water: "Mr. Zhou is right, my route has always been ridiculously wrong."

As soon as I finished speaking, a "squeaking" sound of tires rubbing against the ground suddenly sounded in my ears, and my whole body leaned forward and swayed inexplicably. It took a while before I returned to normal.

I opened my eyes in confusion and saw the car suddenly stopped on the side of the road, and Zhou Hanzhi stared at me very abnormally.

Even the arms holding the steering wheel were a little tight.

I smelled a hint of danger for no reason.

Just when he was about to say something, he saw the man beside him suddenly pressing forward.

The finger bones scratched my shoulder blade, making me shudder in the dim light.

The sharp scent of soap eroded my five senses, and the hot breath sprayed on my face. In a daze, I heard the voice say: "Xuxu, scream out."

I dreamed of those hands again, tightly holding my waist.

But when I woke up, I was already lying in my residence.

The swelling and pain accompanied by muscle soreness attacked my brain nerves.

I looked down and saw a bruise on the faded tattoo under my collarbone.

It's like stamping it on purpose.

I suddenly lost my sleepiness.

Everything in the dream seems to be real.

However, there was no trace of a man's presence in the entire room.

I went to the company in a daze.

As soon as she entered the door, she was pulled into the office by Wu Ling. She said happily: "Xu Xu, your roundabout tactics to save the country are really good. Zhou Hanzhi has relented."

My heart trembled and I asked, "When did it happen?"

"Assistant Zeng called me early in the morning, but Zhou Hanzhi also said that if Tangtang can't achieve the effect Lin Xixi wants, he will have to be replaced."

I feel slightly uncomfortable.

The timing is so coincidental.

It happened to be after that incident.

Lin Xixi's greeting interrupted my thoughts.

Wu Ling exchanged a look with me and opened the door.

Lin Xixi handed over the tea cake gift box in her hand and said gently: "Mr. Wu, Sister Nan Xu, this is the gift I specially selected for you."

Wu Ling responded with a smile: "Manager Lin, you are too polite."

Lin Xixi's eyebrows were curved: "Mr. Wu, Sister Nanxu, I didn't handle the previous matter properly. Please don't take it to heart. I have already communicated with the seniors. From now on, we will work together to create brilliance."

After she finished speaking, she made a fist-clenching gesture, playfully but with a hint of seriousness.

It’s really hard to care about.

But when did she talk about communicating with Zhou Hanzhi?

"Last night," Lin Xixi said with wide eyes, "I sent you a message, Sister Nanxu, didn't you see it?"

I took out my phone and looked at the message bar, and sure enough I found the message from Lin Xixi.

"Sister Nanxu, the senior has already agreed."

The time was not long after I left the mountainside villa.

It's just that my thoughts were confused at the time and I didn't notice it.

So, Zhou Hanzhi stopped arguing with us after agreeing to Lin Xixi?

My heart felt like there was a ball of cotton stuffed in it, making me unable to breathe.
