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

I felt like my chair suddenly grew thorns, which pricked me and made me feel very uncomfortable.

Coupled with Wu Ling's look of shock and astonishment, I felt my face getting hot and my whole body uncomfortable. Now, it was my turn that I didn't dare to look her in the eyes.

Wu Ling smiled jokingly and said faintly, "Xuxu, why do you look a little haggard today, as if you didn't sleep well? It turns out that you consumed too much last night and need to replenish more. Come on, don't just watch us eat, hurry up and eat together."

"I didn't, sister, you misunderstood. Zhou Hanzhi drank last night and couldn't drive, so he stayed at my house. Besides, he and I have nothing to do with each other. There's nothing wrong. Don't think too much about it." I felt my ears burning at this moment.

What does it mean to be caught lying right after you lie? This is it.

But after saying this, I felt that my explanation was unnecessary.

Sure enough, Wu Ling raised his eyebrows and smiled more meaningfully: "You can't drive after drinking, but why didn't he stay at his girlfriend's house, but stayed at yours instead? I just heard him asking you about breakfast on the phone. Xuxu not only provided him with a place to stay, but also made breakfast for him?"

"I didn't!" I interrupted Wu Ling hurriedly.

This matter is indeed hard to explain.

Just like Wu Ling said, if Zhou Hanzhi really needed a place to stay, he should go and stay at his girlfriend Lin Xixi's house. After all, his girlfriend Lin Xixi lives upstairs from my house.

More importantly, I knew that his girlfriend lived upstairs, but I still let him live under the same roof with me.

But I didn't want Wu Ling to misunderstand me, so I had to explain: "He broke into my house and refused to leave! I couldn't get rid of him, so I had no choice but to take him in!"

"Oh, it's him who refuses to leave, not Xuxu who keeps pestering him." Wu Ling immediately nodded to show his understanding.

But the look on her face and the words she spoke didn't sound like she really believed what I said.

My face got even hotter. "What I said was true. I even called the police! But I can't do anything to him."

"Yeah, Xuxu called the police, but they couldn't drive Zhou Hanzhi out of Xuxu's room! So Xuxu had no choice but to take him in." Wu Ling continued to nod like a chicken pecking at rice, but his eyes were full of bright smiles, "I believe it, I believe whatever Xuxu says!"

She said she believed it, but in fact she didn't believe it at all!

I feel like I can't clear myself of this even if I jump into the Yellow River. No matter what I say, Wu Ling thinks that I intentionally wanted to keep Zhou Hanzhi. No matter what I say, the fact is that Zhou Hanzhi stayed in my house for one night.

"Forget it, I won't say anything." I gave up struggling. No matter what Wu Ling thinks, I am innocent.

I looked at Zeng Zhi who had put away his phone and said, "Assistant Zeng, Mr. Zhou asked you to go back and pick him up, right? Then finish your breakfast quickly and go back to pick him up."

Don't let this person stay in my house any longer!

It would be fine if Wu Ling knew about this, but if Lin Xixi, who lives upstairs, knew about it, it would be a big trouble.

"Mr. Zhou did ask me to go back and pick him up, but sister-in-law..." Zeng Zhi looked at me apologetically, his tone a little uneasy, "Mr. Zhou said that he accidentally forgot his car keys in your bag."

"What?" This news was so unbelievable that I checked my bag immediately.

He actually took out a black Maybach key from the bag.

But I couldn't figure out how the key stayed in my bag, nor could I figure out when it got into my bag.

In fact, there is no need to think about it. It must have been Zhou Hanzhi who deliberately let it in when I wasn't paying attention. This guy is really cunning and boring. What on earth is he trying to do by doing this?

I threw the Maybach car key to Zeng Zhi and turned and left.

Because I was speechless about Zhou Hanzhi, I even lost my temper towards Zeng Zhi. They must be birds of a feather, neither of them is a good person.

"By the way, sister-in-law, Mr. Zhou also said that your door seemed to be broken and could not be locked. He said that you should tell the property management and have someone repair it..." Zeng Zhi said another sentence behind him.

This time, I got anxious before he finished speaking, and immediately turned around to stop him: "No, don't let him call the property management, I'll go back and deal with it!"

I was afraid that others would know that Zhou Hanzhi was staying at my house, but now Wu Ling and Zeng Zhi already know about it. That would be fine, but if the people in the property management knew about it, Aunt Xu would definitely spread it everywhere with her big mouth!

But the problem of the door not being able to be locked is not a trivial matter and cannot be dealt with later. I can only rush back to deal with it now.

Zeng Zhi got into my car as a matter of course. I drove very fast and my mind was working very fast.

I know why Zhou Hanzhi deliberately put the car keys in my bag. He did it on purpose to let Wu Ling know about our private interactions.

Even if Zeng Zhi hadn't revealed it at the right time just now, this car key would have exposed the truth that he stayed at my house last night. He just wanted Wu Ling to know that he and I... were ambiguous and our relationship was unclear. Even if I tried hard to explain, I couldn't make it clear.

But I don't understand why he did this. On the one hand, he brought Lin Xixi to appear in front of everyone in a high-profile manner, announced that she was his girlfriend, and even took Lin Xixi and Shen Hualan in the same car. On the other hand, he came to pester me, without any reservation, and even took the initiative to disclose our interactions to others.

Isn’t he afraid that Lin Xixi will be unhappy after she finds out?

This question has been bothering me and I can't think of the answer. However, I don't know whether Zhou Hanzhi is afraid that Lin Xixi will know this. But I know that I can't let Lin Xixi know this, otherwise I am sure she will bite me to death.

So I sped up and got home in less than half an hour.

As soon as the car stopped, Zeng Zhi said, "Sister-in-law, Mr. Zhou is waiting for you upstairs. He said he didn't dare to leave until you came back, for fear that someone would steal your things."

I thanked him. He was really cautious and was afraid that my things would be stolen.

I would be more grateful to him if he could leave my house earlier.

My door lock has always been in good condition, including before I went out just now. How come it broke just now? It must have been Zhou Hanzhi who broke it!

I rolled my eyes and said nothing, then quickened my pace and went upstairs. I had to get Zhou Hanzhi to leave quickly so that I could ask the property management to fix my lock.

However, as soon as I arrived at the door of my house, it was opened from the inside, and a slender arm pulled me in. Then, the door was quickly closed and locked with a click.

I was caught off guard and was embraced by someone. I could smell the familiar, refreshing scent, and heard Zhou Hanzhi's teasing smile: "Finally, I tricked Xuxu back."
