The bodyguard had a bug on him, and when he heard them discussing whether to come in, Huo Nianbei had already rushed over from the company.

Seeing the person coming, Gong Xi rushed over and said pitifully, "Brother Nianbei..."

Huo Nianbei ignored her and walked to the sofa, standing at her feet, his brows deeply furrowed, his eyes sliding from her shoulders to her legs without hesitation.

I've already put on my coat, but why do I still feel like I'm being seen naked?

She pressed herself against the back of the sofa, but still felt uncomfortable. She raised her arm and just touched his waist. Lan Zi patted him and said, "Don't look at it. It's okay."

After saying that, Lan Zi wrapped herself tightly, stood up and wanted to take Huo Nianbei away from here, but she didn't expect that the man took a step with his long legs, passed her and sat down directly.

He also pulled Lan Zi, causing her to fall into his arms.

After this man took off his suit and draped it over her legs, he looked as if he was ready to kill someone.

Yang Lan was the first to fall to her knees.

Because she knew that Huo Nianbei just wanted to vent Lan Zi's anger, and she was the person who bullied Lan Zi the most besides Gong Xi.

She also kicked Lan Zi.

"Miss Lan Zi, please spare me, please."

Lan Zi said, "Please get up."

Yang Lan was delighted, and then she heard Lan Zi say in a flat tone, "I will find a lawyer. My insurance is not bought in vain. Also, you falsely accused me of stealing, and I will tell you the truth about this. Go home and wait for the subpoena."

Yang Lan had just stood up, and when she heard Lan Zi say that, she knelt down again, "Please let me beg you, I am blind, I flatter the powerful and bully the weak! But please believe me, I have no choice, Gong Xi is a member of the Gong family, I have to listen to you!"

Yang Lan pushed all the responsibility onto Gong Xi, which made Gong Xi furious and she slapped her in the face.

Especially when she saw Huo Nianbei being so soft-hearted towards Lan Zi, she couldn't help getting angry and slapped Yang Lan again and again, as if she mistook Yang Lan for Lan Zi, a thorn in her eyes and flesh.

Huo Nianbei didn't care about Gong Xi's loss of composure because it would be her turn soon.

His eyes didn't even linger on Gong Xi for a moment, he just kept playing with Lan Zi's hands.

Although it was inappropriate to think of others now, Lan Zi indeed thought of Tang Lin uncontrollably.

In Country M, when Tang Lin first brought her home, many people did not acknowledge her and even tried to make things difficult for her.

Living under someone else's roof and in poor health, she had no way of going out to find a job and could only stay in the Tang family like a parasite.

He was the person Tang Lin brought back, and the person Tang Lin clearly instructed him to take good care of. However, he was not arrogant at all and would do whatever he was told to do.

His face was expressionless, with no dissatisfaction or other emotions.

Later, Tang Lin discovered that the servants had deliberately targeted her and severely punished those people in front of her.

She understood Tang Lin's love for her.

Compared with Tang Lin, Huo Nianbei treated her even worse.

His cruelty was mixed with his special tenderness for her.

Even though she is the daughter of the Gong family, Gong Xi, with this status, not only likes Huo Nianbei, but also fears him.

But Huo Nianbei never seemed to be mean to her. Even the few times she saw his cold side, it was all for her.

She was not afraid of Huo Nianbei, and even dared to touch the tiger's butt.

Huo Nianbei's identity makes him seem to have the initiative, and Lan Zi is the chosen one.

But in fact, she knew that she was the one who had been resisting Huo Nianbei, and she had no doubt that she was "hard-hearted", otherwise she would not have allowed Huo Nianbei to break that layer of window paper for so long.

Gong Xi's scream brought Lan Zi back to her senses.

She heard Huo Nianbei ask her, "What are you thinking about?"

Lan Zi shook her head and said, "Let me solve it myself, okay? I won't be soft-hearted, and you don't want them to do it."

Call the police, pay compensation, and go through the procedures.

Huo Nianbei said, "Okay."

The bodyguard then removed the shackles on Gong Xi.

Everyone was kicked out and Lan Zi stayed in the room to change clothes.

Outside the door, Gong Xi's face was covered with tears. She wished Huo Nianbei would look at her, but the man was stingy and she couldn't get what she wanted.

"I came here because of you..."

Huo Nianbei said nothing.

"Do you like her so much? What's so good about her?"

She was met with silence.

Huo Nianbei was too lazy to waste time talking to people who had ill intentions towards Lan Zi. Her kindness was not worth telling to outsiders.

Gong Xi simply threw the jar into the air, "She's disgusting, don't you think? She speaks in a tone that says she only relies on herself and no one else. I want to vomit when I hear that!"

She ignored Huo Nianbei's unhappy expression and said, "Go watch the video yourself. When her clothes were stripped, most people would be panicked, but she looked like that! It was obvious that she was being - ah!"

Huo Nianbei stretched out his hand and pinched Gong Xi's jaw with such force that Gong Xi felt her jaw was about to be dislocated.

"Do you think we have a good relationship?"

Gong Xi patted Huo Nianbei's hand, "Huo Nianbei, you feel sorry for me..."

Huo Nianbei sneered, "It's better to ask for my mercy."

Then, there was a click.

Lan Zi changed her clothes and came out, taking in everything, with an unclear emotion in her eyes.

As they walked out hand in hand, they met the manager, who had tags on his clothes.

Lan Zi ignored the shocked look in his eyes when he looked at Huo Nianbei and kicked him:

"I told you to come earlier, but you didn't come. Now you come when you are about to die. You come so late. Did you die on the way?"

"You know exactly how much kickbacks you've taken. When the time comes, pay me back every penny!"

"And the decoration is so rubbish, it's all money, don't you know?"

……

After getting in the car, Lan Zi realized that something was wrong.

How could Huo Nianbei not be suspicious when she, a person who has nothing to do with me, was so angry?

Lan Zi said, "I am a fan of the author. You know I like to wear high heels, so I lost my composure just now. Besides, the senior executive of the author is my friend. I feel sorry for her."

It seemed that Huo Nianbei believed what Lan Zi said, and he hummed lightly with a smile.

The two of them didn't speak for a while. Lan Zi lowered his head and posted a Weibo post. After explaining clearly that he didn't hit anyone, he posted another post:

[I didn't steal anything. My friend works for me. I went there today to help her check my store in City A, but she was very disappointed. I don't know if any friends who have been there can see this Weibo post. In short, I will spare no effort to rectify the situation, including the selection of staff. I hope that I can be a brand new one by then, and I hope that everyone will like my store.]

Huo Nianbei stared at her as she typed. He found himself fascinated by everything about her, including her attitude when solving problems.

He would also be fascinated by her fingers.

He liked her slightly furrowed brows, but he didn't want her to be really upset about something.

Until Lan Zi sighed unconsciously——

He paused with his hand on his knee and was silent for two seconds, "Blue and purple."

I turned my head and looked at him, "What's wrong?"

He followed his instinct and said, "Let's date. I'm going crazy."

Lan Zi opened her eyes wide and swallowed. The carriage was dead silent.

How could you say it at such a timely moment?

She knew how good Huo Nianbei was to her, and she was also well aware of her feelings for him, so she couldn't help herself in the store...

Cong Chen was even more shocked. Why didn't Miss Lan Zi answer? He raised the baffle in fear.

Lan Zi lowered her head, twisted her fingers and dared not answer, "Back home..." Before she finished her words, her butt moved onto the man's thigh.

He almost pleaded in a low voice, "Please trust me."

A man's fragility also arouses a woman's desire to protect him, let alone a man like Huo Nianbei and a woman like Lan Zi.

One doesn't show vulnerability easily, while the other is tough on the outside but soft on the inside and wants to save the world.

She was already weak-willed, and now she was even more fascinated by the beauty, and said, "Okay, let's go out together."

It's just love!

I'm not afraid of a ghost!

After receiving a positive answer, Huo Nianbei asked in a panic, "Really?"

"It's fake. I was just teasing you."

"No, it's bad."

Huo Nianbei buried his head in Lan Zi's neck, smiling in a worthless manner.

Seeing him like this, Lan Zi was also filled with joy. Then she heard the man ask, "Can I take a photo and post it on WeChat Moments?"

Lan Zi touched his hair and taught him, "Boys shouldn't rush to do things, you know! But, if you want, just send it..."

Huo Nianbei smiled and pinched her waist to bring her close to him.

"It's a man."
