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

I quickly turned my head and saw Lin Xixi standing not far away. Her big round almond-shaped eyes looked back and forth between me and Zhou Hanzhi's face, with surprise and suspicion in her eyes.

I suddenly woke up from the confusion, and then realized belatedly that the distance between Zhou Hanzhi and me at this moment was only two fists wide.

From Lin Xixi's perspective, we were almost stuck together, and our posture looked very ambiguous.

No wonder Lin Xixi looked at us with such suspicion, she must have misunderstood.

She was already extremely suspicious to begin with, and if she misunderstood that there was something ambiguous between Zhou Hanzhi and me, I was afraid that something bad would happen again.

I immediately took two steps back, suppressed the panic in my heart, and tried my best to make my tone sound calm: "Mr. Zhou talked to me a little bit..."

"Official business." Zhou Hanzhi took over my conversation.

My body paused and I slowly turned to look at Zhou Hanzhi.

What we just talked about has nothing to do with business.

But Zhou Hanzhi looked back at me, his face expressionless and extremely calm.

I understood instantly that Zhou Hanzhi didn't want his beloved to know the content of my conversation with him, so he signaled me to cooperate with him in lying so that Lin Xixi wouldn't be suspicious.

Although this is also what I am thinking at the moment, at this moment, looking at Zhou Hanzhi's attitude which is completely opposite to what it was just now, my heart still feels uncontrollably lost and sad.

But it only lasted for a short while, and I quickly regained my composure.

I didn't have any expectations in the first place, so why should I feel lost and sad?

Last night, when I was standing outside Lin Xixi's window, I had already guessed what was happening in the house. I could still leave calmly, let alone at this moment.

"Are you talking about business?" There was still suspicion in Lin Xixi's eyes. Obviously, she still didn't quite believe what Zhou Hanzhi and I said.

Zhou Hanzhi's tone was calm and composed: "I happened to meet Manager Meng when I was washing my hands. We talked about the recent data of the story. I want to strike while the iron is hot and let the data reach a higher level, and strive to enter the top three of the game rankings."

He turned to look at me again, his dark eyes were as calm as an ancient well, without any trace of the previous ripples: "Is that so, Manager Meng?"

"Yes." I looked at his eyes that were so calm that they confused me, and nodded gently. When I turned to Lin Xixi, I had calmed down. "The story project is related to Manager Lin's graduation project. President Zhou also wants Manager Lin's graduation work to look better, so he stopped to talk to me about this."

The best way to dispel Lin Xixi's suspicion is to bring the "matter" that Zhou Hanzhi and I discussed to Lin Xixi.

And the best thing is that Zhou Hanzhi has good intentions for Lin Xixi.

Lin Xixi's eyes really lit up, and the suspicion in her eyes gradually faded. She ran to Zhou Hanzhi in surprise, took his arm, and said sweetly: "Hanzhi, you are too good to me. In fact, the data of the story is already very beautiful, but I didn't expect that you would want to do more for me."

Zhou Hanzhi let her hug his arms without saying anything.

I immediately added with a smile: "It's not the first day that Mr. Zhou has been attentive to Manager Lin. It has always been like this, right? Manager Lin really shouldn't doubt Mr. Zhou. If he did, he would be very sad."

Zhou Hanzhi asked me to cooperate with him in acting and telling lies, so naturally I had to do my job conscientiously. Not only did I have to cooperate well, but I also had to play the role of a bystander and contribute to the stability and sweetness of the relationship between the two protagonists.

After I said this, the doubt in Lin Xixi's eyes was completely dispelled. She hugged Zhou Hanzhi's arms tighter, her face full of guilt: "I'm sorry, Hanzhi, I shouldn't be suspicious. I know that you have always been very good to me, and I shouldn't doubt you. After all, not everyone can catch your eye. Please forgive me, okay?"

Not everyone can catch Zhou Hanzhi's eye...

That's right. Zhou Hanzhi has always been a high-class beauty. I spent so much time licking him before he reluctantly accepted it. Rather than saying that I am his girlfriend, it would be more accurate to say that I am the choice he was forced to make under pressure from all sides.

But Lin Xixi is different. She doesn't need to lick him at all. She just stands there, and a look of grievance or a sweet smile can affect his emotions and make him bend down to coax her.

Speaking of which, Lin Xixi is the one that Zhou Hanzhi really likes.

I'm not.

My heart ached and I lowered my eyelashes, not wanting to watch their sweet and loving scene.

"Okay, let's go." Zhou Hanzhi's tone was still light. I saw him pull his hand out of Lin Xixi's arms and walked out first.

It seems that after Mr. Zhou comforted his girlfriend, his own tsundere syndrome also came back.

But it’s not a big deal. As long as Lin Xixi catches up with him and acts sweetly and coquettishly, it will be fine.

It took me half a minute to calm myself down and walk out of the bathroom.

I also walked out of the bathroom. Yan Dong was waiting for me at the door. He and I drove back to the company separately.

When I was driving past Zhou Hanzhi's black Maybach, I saw through the half-open window that Lin Xixi had regained her previous happiness and was talking to Zhou Hanzhi excitedly with her head tilted.

Zhou Hanzhi also looked at her and seemed to be listening to her very attentively. He looked so serious and patient.

However, his gaze missed Lin Xixi and fell on my face outside the car window. His eyes were no longer as calm and indifferent as before, and there was a hint of apology in them.

I immediately retracted my gaze, looked straight ahead and drove seriously.

What a bullshit apology. Mr. Zhou’s real job is to coax his girlfriend. Why should he apologize to a tool like me?

I drove very fast along the way just to leave Zhou Hanzhi far behind me, so I arrived at the company in less than fifteen minutes.

But as soon as I entered the company, I felt that the atmosphere today was weird. Xiaoya, the receptionist, covered her mouth and laughed when she saw me, with excitement and gossip in her eyes that she couldn't hide.

The rest of the people had the same expression.

I looked at him strangely and asked, "What's wrong? What happened? Why do you all look like that?"

"Sister Nanxu, congratulations." Xiaoya couldn't help but speak first, smiling so much that her eyes curved, and then she stretched out her hand to me, "When will the wedding candy be distributed?"

"What wedding candy?" I was even more confused.

At this moment, Wu Ling came out of the office and hugged me excitedly: "Xuxu baby, you finally got it. Life is all about enjoying life while it lasts. You should nourish yourself when you need to!"

I was totally confused.

But a blue delivery man came in carrying a big box: "Is this the milk tea that Mr. Yan ordered?"

"It's me." Yan Dong came out from behind the delivery man, came in with the box with a smile, and distributed milk tea to everyone.

The expression everyone had when looking at Yan Dong at this moment was the same as the expression they had when looking at me just now.

Xiaoya took the milk tea handed over by Yan Dong with both hands and smiled: "Thank you, Professor Yan, congratulations to Professor Yan and Sister Nanxu, this milk tea is your wedding candy, right?"
