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

It was just a moment of distraction, and I quickly regained consciousness.

What an arrogant and evil thought!

Why did I suddenly want to kiss Zhou Hanzhi?

He blocked my way home, argued with me, pushed me into his car, dragged me to this beach against my will, and even forced me to wear this Patek Philippe watch.

I should be angry, why would I want to kiss him?

But Zhou Hanzhi's face was getting closer and closer to me, and I could even feel his breath on my nose.

"Zhou Hanzhi, stay away from me!" I slapped Zhou Hanzhi on the face and pushed his face away with force, then I realized belatedly that my breathing was rapid and my heart was pounding.

No, Meng Nanxu, you have to wake up.

What are you dancing about?

You can't make the same mistake again.

I pushed hard, but fortunately Zhou Hanzhi did not move any closer. He looked at me deeply, slowly stepped out of the car, leaned against the side of the car, and lit a cigarette.

The cigarette butt flickered in the night, and his face was illuminated by the cigarette butt, also flickering.

For some reason, there was a faint sadness on his face, and that sadness was like a stream, flowing quietly.

I sat in the carriage, calming my breathing and heartbeat, and then I suddenly heard him say, "What a pity, there are no stars tonight."

Star.

It seems that he didn't bring me here by chance, but did it on purpose.

Because this is where we went on our fifth anniversary. That night, the starry sky was shining brightly above the beach, and he and I enjoyed ourselves in the tent under the stars.

Tonight, on the same beach, there is no starry sky, only the moonlight...

Wait, why did he mention the night of the fifth anniversary?

We have separated long ago, we shouldn't miss each other.

"Mr. Zhou, I don't have the time and energy to accompany you here to enjoy the night view. Please take me back immediately." I ordered in a deep voice with a cold face.

It's not that I have to take Zhou Hanzhi's car, it's just that it's difficult to get a taxi at this time and in this place.

Zhou Hanzhi's gaze shifted from the sky to my face. Under the moonlight, his gaze was also a little bright, with hope and determination: "But it's nothing to regret. There are no stars tonight, but maybe there will be tomorrow night. Even if there are no stars tomorrow night, there will always be a day with bright stars. I have the confidence and will wait until that day."

Is he talking about the stars?

Why are you looking at me and saying that I will always wait for the stars?

My heart skipped a beat, and then, after finally calming down, it started speeding up again.

Damn it, I shouldn't have listened to what he said.

I frowned, stared at Zhou Hanzhi's face, and said seriously, "Zhou Hanzhi, please immediately..."

"Xuxu, let's watch the stars together next time?" But Zhou Hanzhi seemed to have not heard the order at all. He interrupted me softly and asked me with a smile.

So gentle, yet full of expectation.

I looked at his smiling, slightly shining eyes and was stunned for a moment, speechless.

Why is he always like this? When I have made up my mind to have nothing to do with him anymore, he appears by my side and speaks to me with such gentle and doting words, as if we were still in love as before.

His behavior makes me feel dazed and delusional, thinking that we have never been apart or that we have reconciled.

I can't do this.

I turned my face away and tried to make my voice sound calm and low: "No, Mr. Zhou, you should ask your girlfriend to watch it together. I don't have the obligation to do so."

Silence.

The light in Zhou Hanzhi's eyes dimmed quickly. The next second, he put out his cigarette and gently closed the car door: "I'll take you home."

On the way back, the carriage was quieter than ever before. Neither he nor I spoke. I no longer had the previous irritability and excitement. I just leaned back in my chair and watched the bright moon in the sky moving in pursuit of me.

But my heart is far from being as calm as it appears on the outside. It is full of ups and downs and chaos.

So when the car arrived at the gate of the community, I hurriedly pushed the door and got out, rushing into the community as if escaping, not even daring to look back.

I was afraid that if I looked back one more time, I would not be able to control the surging emotions in my chest.

However, when I finally calmed down in my bed and was about to fall asleep, I realized belatedly that I had forgotten something extremely important.

I quickly grabbed the phone next to my pillow, found Zhou Hanzhi's number, and dialed it.

The phone rang twice before being connected. I hurriedly asked, "Zhou Hanzhi, my diamond bracelet."

That’s right, it’s the diamond bracelet that Sister Min gave me before.

Just now in the car, Zhou Hanzhi took it away and put it into his pocket, then took out the Patek Philippe from his pocket and put it on my hand.

I was nervous and stunned at the time, and was only concerned with wondering how the watch came back, but I forgot that he had taken away my diamond bracelet.

If that diamond bracelet belonged to me, I wouldn't be so anxious to make this call, but that bracelet was given to me by Sister Min, and I have to return it to Yuan Tianye tomorrow, so I have to get it back.

"Yes, the diamond bracelet is in my pocket." Zhou Hanzhi's voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding extremely calm and leisurely.

He paused after saying this, as if waiting for my next request.

I was a little angry, but I tried my best to hold it back: "Then please return it to me as soon as possible."

I don't want to argue with him, it won't help.

But Zhou Hanzhi's next words really made me want to reach into the phone and slap him twice.

He still spoke in that calm and leisurely tone: "No."

"Mr. Zhou, what do you mean? You are a CEO, are you going to embezzle other people's money and property? You should not be short of such things, right?" I really couldn't help it, and spoke quickly and urgently.

But he interrupted my attack with one sentence: "You can return it, but I have one condition."

He wants conditions?

I was so furious, this was really unbearable.

He blocked my way home in the middle of the night and quarreled with me, then forced me into his car and took me to the beach, took away my diamond bracelet, and put this watch on me. Now when I asked him for the diamond bracelet in a normal way, he actually negotiated conditions with me!

Stay calm, Meng Nanxu, don't be impulsive, otherwise you really won't be able to get this diamond bracelet back. If that happens, how am I going to explain it to Xiaoye?

I took a deep breath, suppressed my anger, and asked in a deep voice, "What are the conditions?"

"You must always wear the watch I gave you. You are not allowed to take it off." Zhou Hanzhi seemed to laugh on the other end of the phone, but his tone quickly turned cold. "Otherwise, I will not return this diamond bracelet to you."

My fingers clenched around the phone until my knuckles turned white, and I clenched my teeth.

Scoundrel, Zhou Hanzhi is a big scoundrel!
