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

I suddenly opened my eyes.

This time, I pushed Zhou Hanzhi away firmly and forcefully.

"Zhou Hanzhi, stop acting. I told you to at least respect the audience's intelligence. Your acting is too fake and I can't stand it." I didn't say any more useless words. I just stretched out my palm to him and said, "If you really appreciate my help this afternoon, give me back my diamond bracelet."

Everything else is fake. I went to see Zhou Hanzhi at noon today just to get back the diamond bracelet that Sister Min gave me. But after a long time and talking about a lot of other things, I still didn't get my diamond bracelet back.

Now that I have met Zhou Hanzhi, let's not talk about other useless things and take this opportunity to get the business done.

I also want to get the diamond bracelet back as soon as possible and return it to Yuan Tianye as soon as possible.

When Zhou Hanzhi was pushed away by me, there was still a faint smile on his face, but when I reached out to him for the diamond bracelet, his expression changed, as if covered with a layer of black mist.

He stared at me, his handsome face gloomy, and his thin lips slightly parted: "Where's the watch?"

"The watch is not with me now." I reacted immediately and explained hastily: "I came to see you at noon today to return your watch and get my diamond bracelet back, but my bag is not with me at the moment. But don't worry, I won't deny your things. I will definitely return your watch."

Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, Zhou Hanzhi's expression not only did not brighten, but became even gloomier. His face was almost as black as the bottom of a pot, and his tone was heavy: "Do you think this is what I'm worried about? Meng Nanxu, why are you..."

The cell phone suddenly vibrated, interrupting his words.

He lowered his head to glance at his phone, and the gloom on his face instantly dissipated. He looked at me deeply, and the intention in his eyes was obvious, telling me not to make a sound.

I stared at his phone in a daze.

If my memory is correct, Zeng Zhi told Mrs. Zhou in his office at noon today that Zhou Hanzhi's phone fell into the water and broke down. The maintenance personnel leaked the chat screenshots in his phone before they could repair it, and made up a bunch of rumors to discredit the relationship between me and him.

I was thinking at the time, no wonder his phone was always turned off when I called him these two days, it turned out his phone had not been repaired yet.

But why did he take out another mobile phone now?

So, what Zeng Zhi said at noon was all lies, and the reason why I couldn’t get through to Zhou Hanzhi on the phone these two days was that this man blocked me on purpose?

I clenched my fingers.

Zhou Hanzhi had already answered the phone, and his tone was very gentle: "What's wrong?"

Not only were his words gentle, but his expression was also gentle. His originally gloomy eyes were now filled with tenderness.

I have never seen such tenderness before.

This is the expression Zhou Hanzhi often has when he is with Lin Xixi.

I guess this call is from Lin Xixi.

It was indeed different. When I called Zhou Hanzhi, his phone was always turned off. However, when Lin Xixi called, Zhou Hanzhi answered immediately, still in such a gentle tone, asking what happened to his beloved.

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to say something, and his expression immediately became nervous: "Don't worry, I'll be there soon, don't move yet."

It was indeed Lin Xixi.

Zhou Hanzhi has always been a calm person. No matter what happens, he is always so calm and composed. I'm afraid only Lin Xixi's affairs would make him so nervous and flustered.

Before I could verify my guess, Zhou Hanzhi had already left my ward with his cell phone in hand, and his figure quickly disappeared outside the door.

The door of the ward closed gently, and a light breeze blew in, brushing the hair by my ears.

I stared at the door, feeling as if I were dreaming, as if Zhou Hanzhi's figure had never appeared.

Only a few drops of water scattered on the ground beside the bed seemed to prove that what had just happened was not my dream.

My body slowly fell back onto the thick pillow and I closed my eyes. I wanted to clear my memory, but Zhou Hanzhi's words kept ringing in my ears.

"Listen to me, let's stop making trouble. I know you have me in your heart, otherwise you wouldn't have covered for me in front of the old lady at noon, right?"

"Xu Xu always says one thing and means another, but my husband knows that you and I have the same heart."

"Don't worry, your husband won't let you suffer in vain. Your husband will settle accounts with all those who bully us."

……

His voice was low and had a soft magnetism that could easily touch my heartstrings. He spoke so sincerely, as if every word came from the heart.

My heart began to shake slightly, and at this moment, I thought of Wu Ling's conjecture again.

She firmly believed that Zhou Hanzhi did not really like Lin Xixi and felt that there could be no deep feelings between them. She even suspected that Lin Xixi was a cover placed by Zhou Hanzhi in front of Old Madam Zhou to attract fire.

Is this really true?

Is Zhou Hanzhi acting with Old Madam Zhou?

Are the things he just said to me true?

Have I been misunderstanding him all along?

My heart was shaking more and more.

At this moment, the door of the ward opened again, but this time the noise was very light, as if they were worried about disturbing me.

Is it Zhou Hanzhi?

I opened my eyes immediately and saw a familiar figure.

However, this figure was not Zhou Hanzhi, but Yuan Tianye.

"Sister, you're awake. I thought you were asleep. The doctor said you had a cold and fever caused by gastrointestinal problems. Although the fever has subsided now, your gastrointestinal function is still weak, so it's best to eat something soft and easy to digest." Yuan Tianye still had the scent of the cold wind from outside on his body. His gray hair was a mess. He looked exhausted, but his face was full of expectant smile. He opened the small table in front of me, picked up the thermal lunch box in his hand, and busied himself getting things outside.

One, two, three.

He placed a few things on the small table in front of me as if offering a treasure, and looked at me expectantly with a pair of bright peach blossom eyes: "This is the breakfast I made in my own place while you were asleep. Try it and see if it's any better this time?"

Soft and fragrant egg pancakes, light stir-fried potato shreds, and golden pumpkin millet porridge.

It has good color, aroma and taste, and it will increase your appetite at first sight.

I woke up late yesterday morning and didn't have time to eat breakfast. At noon, I rushed to Rongyu to ask Zhou Hanzhi for a diamond bracelet and didn't have time to eat lunch. In the evening, I went to a dinner party invited by Yan Dong and Feng Wenting. As a result, I didn't even have a bite of food, but was forced to drink three glasses of wine and was directly admitted to the hospital.

I hadn't eaten a day's work, and now when I saw these things in front of me, I grabbed the chopsticks and put them into my mouth without hesitation.
