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

I looked at the man's white knuckles and knew he was really angry.

Under normal circumstances, he would only do this action when he was holding back.

I didn't intend to defend myself, but I couldn't find the right lines to prove myself, so I could only stand aside like a wooden stake.

But Zhou Hanzhi still didn't seem to be relieved. When he looked over, I heard him ask again: "What is Manager Meng going to do next?"

I don’t know why Zhou Hanzhi got around to this topic again and responded: “After signing the contract, I will naturally continue to work on the project.”

"Really? I don't think so," Zhou Hanzhi looked away and thought to himself, "Manager Meng's plan is very good. With the support of that boy from the Yuan family, you can not only complete the project, but also get the leadership of the project. , if it performs well, it may even find new investors, which can be said to be... the best of all three."

The deep eyes were hooked on my face like hooks. I looked at the man's meaningful look and smiled bitterly.

It turns out that I am so scheming in Zhou Hanzhi's eyes.

Forget it, just think of him as complimenting me. As things stand now, it’s still important to do business.

I calmed myself down and said in a nonchalant tone: "Since Mr. Zhou is so aware of everything, what are you going to do next?"

Whether to cooperate or refuse to cooperate, there must be an explanation.

Zhou Hanzhi glanced at me, snorted coldly and said, "Manager Meng looks very anxious."

“I’m just thinking about the project.”

"What a pity," Zhou Hanzhi leaned lazily on the sofa, glanced at me sideways, and said, "Rongyu doesn't plan to cooperate with Yuan Tianye."

Although I had made enough mental preparations before coming here, when I heard that Zhou Hanzhi decisively refused to cooperate with Yuan Tianye, a ball of fire burst out of my heart.

Didn't he see what I've been going through in southern Anhui these days? I've put so much effort into it. Isn't our purpose just to find a free traveler? Now that the person has been found, Yuan Tianye has agreed to cooperate, but Zhou Hanzhi doesn't know which muscle is wrong - it's simply unreasonable!

Thinking of this, I pinched my palms, suppressed the unhappiness in my heart, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhou, this matter is very important, please... handle it with caution."

"You really want to cooperate with him?"

"I'm just doing it for the project," I said frankly. "Mr. Zhou can afford to wait, but I can't."

"So for this project, Manager Meng is willing to do anything?"

Our eyes intertwined, looking into those bottomless black eyes, and my heart suddenly tightened.

Now Zhou Hanzhi's eyes were like a beast encountering food in the snow, greedy and naked.

I stood still, but my heartbeat was beating uncontrollably.

"come over."

These two simple and concise words touched my nerves.

I also knew that the current situation was about people being killed with knives and me being a fish. After pinching the palms of my hands, I still leaned back on the sofa without any hope.

At that time, the distance between me and Zhou Hanzhi was less than half a meter.

It was obvious that I was standing and he was sitting, but in terms of aura, I still lost a lot to this man.

That's right, how can the soul of a person who asks for help be noble?

I could only try my best to pretend to be calm, but then I heard Zhou Hanzhi say, "Extend your hand here."

"Mr. Zhou..."

"Left hand." Zhou Hanzhi interrupted me and said firmly: "I won't say it a second time."

I didn't know what Zhou Hanzhi was trying to do, so after hesitating for two seconds, I reached out to Zhou Hanzhi.

A cold touch suddenly spread from my wrist to my limbs. I felt my scalp numb for a while. The next second, I saw the man's slender fingers slowly sliding onto my wristband. After whispering something bad, I pulled my hand away eagerly.

But it was too late, Zhou Hanzhi seemed to have guessed my thoughts, and held my wrist tightly, as if he wanted to crush it.

Thinking about the scar hidden under the wristband, I panicked for a moment and just tried to pull back with all my strength.

But in the end I was no match for this man's strength. Suddenly, I lost my balance and plunged into Zhou Hanzhi's arms.

My head was right on his chin.

When the muffled sound reached my ears, I raised my head slightly and saw Zhou Hanzhi's frown.

"Does that boy from the Yuan family know the origin of this wristband?" Zhou Hanzhi frowned coldly, "If he knew that you were such a precious gift from another man, do you think he would still care about you so much?"

My heart felt like it had been torn open by someone, and an unspeakable pain spread quickly. I was just about to respond when a sweet greeting sounded in my ears.

"Is Mr. Zhou here? Why did you leave so quickly? I haven't entertained you and Xixi properly yet."

It was Song Qing's voice.

No, why did Song Qing come over suddenly?

If I remember correctly, the door to the suite does not seem to be closed!

And listening to the voice, Song Qing should have already approached, and might even walk in from the front door in the next second!

Suddenly I panicked. If she saw me "nesting" in Zhou Hanzhi's arms at this moment, I don't know what kind of trouble it would cause.

I eagerly held up my arms, trying to distance myself from Zhou Hanzhi, but I felt my waist tighten, and my whole body suddenly pressed against Zhou Hanzhi's strong chest.

"you……"

Before I could finish my words, I felt my body spinning, and then I was pushed down on the sofa by Zhou Hanzhi.

I changed positions with him.

"I don't want to be discovered," a sharp tone whispered in my ear. Zhou Hanzhi used his broad shoulders to block me and moved closer, "Just shut up."

The distance between us is too close, close enough that I can smell his warm breath, close enough that I can clearly see the busy me in his dark eyes.

"Mr. Zhou, why don't you just do it tomorrow..."

Song Qing's voice interrupted my thoughts, and then they stopped abruptly.

"Get out!" The scolding rang loudly in my ears, and I heard Zhou Hanzhi angrily yell: "Don't you know, Mr. Song, that you should knock on the door before entering?"

"I didn't think well...Mr. Zhou...you should be busy!"

When Song Qing spoke to the end, her tone was full of resentment.

As the sound of "thump thump thump" of high-heeled shoes drifted farther and farther away, my tense nerves slowly relaxed, but when I raised my eyes, I ran into Zhou Hanzhi's questioning eyes again.

There was anger in the questioning.

His eyes were still on the band around my wrist.

I heard him ask: "Is it more important, the project, or the wristband?"

I stared at the man in front of me, suppressing the overwhelming emotions in my heart, and blurted out after a moment: "The wristband was sewn by grandma herself."

Zhou Hanzhi's expression froze and he looked at me in surprise. It took him a long time to utter a sentence: "Is she okay, old lady?"
