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

The sound startled Yan Dong and I in the house. We looked towards the source of the sound together and saw a familiar tall figure standing at my door.

"Zhou Hanzhi, how did you get in?" I asked in surprise.

But he reacted quickly.

When I brought Yan Dong in just now, Yan Dong was the last one to come in. I didn't pay attention to whether he closed the door. I guess Yan Dong forgot to close the door tightly at that time.

But why did Zhou Hanzhi come to my door again in the middle of the night and interrupt me?

It was already enough of a headache for me to have Yan Dong cause all these troubles, and now here comes Zhou Hanzhi, which makes me even more overwhelmed.

I immediately let go of Yan Dong's arm, strode to the door, and stopped Zhou Hanzhi from entering: "Don't make trouble here, leave quickly."

But I was still a step too slow, Zhou Hanzhi had already come in from the door.

He came up to me and put his arms around my waist, with a smile on his lips and eyes, and his tone was indescribably ambiguous: "I'm not here to make trouble, your husband is here to help you out, otherwise, you will be pestered again."

He even made an excuse, saying that he was there to help me out.

He is so shameless, who wants him to help out? If he doesn't come, I can still barely convince Yan Dong to leave, but if he comes, things will only become more troublesome. Even if he can get rid of Yan Dong, I will not be able to live in peace.

After all, the trouble that Zhou Hanzhi brought me was greater than that of ten severe winters.

I pushed Zhou Hanzhi away, broke free from his arms, and took several steps back.

At this moment, Yan Dong stood up from the ground with a whoosh: "Zhou Hanzhi? Nan Xu rejected me because of you? This is impossible!"

"What's impossible about this? Xuxu is my wife. She has only had me in her heart from the beginning to the end. She has always been waiting for me. Of course, she can't be with you." Zhou Hanzhi still had a smile on his face.

He strode over and stopped in front of the severe winter.

He was taller than Yan Dong, and although the two were not that different in stature, he looked down at Yan Dong with an arrogant attitude, and a faint smile on his lips: "Professor Yan worked really hard. In order to pursue Xu Xu, he gave her flowers and confessed his love in public, and even blocked her door in the middle of the night and knelt down to ask for her love. Just now, I was moved when I saw him outside the door. I think Professor Yan is really a devoted man."

How Yan Dong behaved towards me was between him and me, and had nothing to do with Zhou Hanzhi. When these things came out of Zhou Hanzhi's mouth, they sounded sarcastic no matter how you heard them.

Sure enough, Yan Dong's face became uglier, the corners of his lips were tight, he was still holding the small box in his hand, his knuckles were white, but he did not lose control, his tone was still stable: "Nan Xu is very good, she is worth my efforts for her, I am willing to be obsessed with her."

"Really? So Professor Yan, you chose to pursue her because she is excellent? You also chose her over Feng Wenting because she is better and more valuable than Feng Wenting? Are you playing the role of a late lover?" Zhou Hanzhi's smile turned cold, and the mockery became stronger. "But Professor Yan, you underestimate Meng Nanxu's value. You wooed her with this diamond necklace worth tens of thousands of dollars? Isn't this looking down on people?"

"Zhou Hanzhi, stop talking nonsense!" This was too much, I had to stop Zhou Hanzhi.

Although I also think that what Yan Dong did tonight was inappropriate, he was obviously engaged to Feng Wenting, but he still came to my house in the middle of the night to confess to me, but I believe that Yan Dong is not the kind of person who weighs the pros and cons as Zhou Hanzhi said, and he is not a person who defines others by their values.

But Zhou Hanzhi not only defined Yan Dong as such a person, he also mocked and ridiculed Yan Dong, saying that the gift Yan Dong gave was shabby, and that the gift Yan Dong gave was cheap because he looked down on me.

Who can bear this?

Sure enough, Yan Dong got angry as soon as I finished speaking. He waved his fist and hit Zhou Hanzhi: "Zhou Hanzhi, you are making up stories and bullying me too much!"

Zhou Hanzhi seemed to have been prepared for this punch. He grabbed Yan Dong's wrist to stop the punch, and said sarcastically, "Professor Yan, you are angry because I hit you in the face, right? We both know whether I made it up or not, right? But I want to tell you, my wife is not an inexperienced woman. If you want to impress her, you should show your true sincerity instead of fooling her with this cheap stuff."

I was standing between the two of them. I could clearly see Yan Dong's face flushed red, his eyes burning with anger, and the corners of his lips twitching slightly because of anger and excitement: "I am sincere to Nan Xu! The price of this necklace may not be high, but my love for Nan Xu is like this diamond, pure and firm, and there will be no change!"

His voice became a little higher: "Zhou Hanzhi, you have hurt Nan Xu before, and now you already have a girlfriend but you still pester Nan Xu, you are fickle and want everything. You are really shameless! All of us are qualified to pursue Nan Xu, but you are not qualified!"

"Shut up! I didn't!" Zhou Hanzhi's face changed. He grabbed Yan Dong's wrist and suddenly twisted it hard, then clenched his other hand into a fist and hit Yan Dong in the face.

Yan Dong was trapped by Zhou Hanzhi, and Zhou Hanzhi's punch came suddenly and he couldn't dodge it.

But I couldn't just watch these two people fight. Just when Zhou Hanzhi's fist was about to hit Yan Dong's face, I grabbed his arm and said, "Stop it! Zhou Hanzhi, do you want to attract everyone in this building to watch the show? Do you want Lin Xixi to know this?"

I have to admit that Lin Xixi is really Zhou Hanzhi's beloved one, and she is also a good medicine to prevent Zhou Hanzhi from going crazy.

As soon as I mentioned Lin Xixi, Zhou Hanzhi's anger and rage immediately melted away.

His arms immediately relaxed, his clenched fists loosened, and also loosened Yan Dong's wrist.

This is obviously the result I want to see, but when I saw Zhou Hanzhi's reaction, I couldn't help but feel sad. Zhou Hanzhi really cares about Lin Xixi and loves Lin Xixi very much.

"Yandong, hurry up and leave." I turned my head away from Zhou Hanzhi's face and immediately urged Yandong, who had broken free from my control, to leave first.

These two people are trouble. If one of them leaves, one less trouble will be there.

"Nan Xu..." Yan Dong did not leave immediately. He looked at me, seeming to want to say something but stopped.

I immediately added, "I will treat what happened tonight as if it never happened. Yan Dong, we will still be friends in the future. I also hope that you and Wen Ting are doing well and will not affect the progress of the project."

The first half of the sentence is not the point, the second half is.

I don’t care what Yan Dong did tonight, but what I care about is whether this incident will affect the HERO project.

Yan Dong did not answer my question directly. He just nodded and turned away.

I breathed a sigh of relief as I watched him leave. But behind me, I heard Zhou Hanzhi's low, resentful voice: "You're protecting him?"
