The dumb wife died with hatred, and she was not obedient after rebirth

Ling Zhao slowly turned the white jade bracelet on his wrist and looked at Aunt Zhang quietly.

Her pupils were black, and when she looked at people so quietly, she had a sense of majesty without even being angry.

After being stared at for a long time, Aunt Zhang pursed her lips uncomfortably, but finally picked up the tray and went upstairs.

Ling Zhao watched her out of the corner of his eyes, and only stood up calmly after her figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

She went back to her room, removed her makeup, changed out of her dress and put on her home clothes.

He found another box and put the white jade bracelet in it.

She took the box to the study.

As expected, Aunt Zhang was scolded again.

With a bang, the door slammed loudly.

Seeing Ling Zhao coming over, Aunt Zhang pulled a long face and said, "Madam told Mr. that they are not in the mood for midnight snacks, and also said that if you can't help, don't make things worse."

Mother Zhang felt very aggrieved tonight.

Ling Zhao nodded, indicating that she could now rest assured.

She knocked twice on the closed door and pushed it open.

When I went in, I saw Huo's mother sitting dejectedly in a chair, her face pale, as if she was ready to resign.

She persisted until now and finally got promoted, but was demoted before she could even get comfortable in the position. She was filled with resentment and anger.

But if I don't resign voluntarily, do I have to wait for the school to announce my expulsion?

That would be even more shameless.

Mother Huo supported her forehead with her hands and closed her eyes, completely devoid of thoughts.

There is a kind of sadness that comes from struggling for half a lifetime, only to return with a stain on your body and feel completely hopeless.

Huo Yixiu glanced at Ling Zhao: "You have something to do too?"

There was anger in his voice, which was different from the gentleness he had at the party.

Ling Zhao silently handed the box over: [Mrs. Xu gave it to me, saying it was a gift for sisters to meet. I felt I had to tell you about this.]

Huo Yixiu looked at the white jade bracelet with a cold expression, unable to tell whether she was happy or angry. Huo's mother sneered and said sarcastically, "When nothing happens, we are sisters, but when something happens, we are strangers. The jade bracelet is nothing, and the golden orchid is useless."

Ling Zhao glanced at Mrs. Huo and realized that the person she was really mocking was Mrs. Min.

In the face of benefits and disasters, sworn brotherhood is of no use.

Ling Zhao gestured: [I heard from Madam Xu that if you want to enter a prestigious school, there are many ways. Donating library and laboratory equipment, although it costs a lot of money, it is the school's way, and has nothing to do with individuals.]

"How dare you!" Mother Huo was so angry that she grabbed a porcelain cup and threw it at him, "How dare you say such things about me!"

Ling Zhao curled up his fingers, looked at Huo Yixiu aggrievedly, and quietly left the study.

Ling Zhao had no idea what Huo Yixiu said in the study afterwards.

She returned to the bedroom and Huo Yixiu followed her in.

It happened quickly, earlier than she expected.

Ling Zhao stroked the jade bracelet silently.

Huo Yixiu sat down beside her and glanced at the bracelet: "Do you like jade bracelets?"

Ling Zhao nodded, stretched out her hand, and asked him to help her put it on.

Huo Yixiu held her hand. The jade bracelet was a little big, but it was difficult to put it on. It dangled on her wrist. He said, "It's too big. I'll give you a smaller one later."

He twisted the jade bracelet in circles, seeming to be lost in thought.

Ling Zhao glanced at him: [That day in the chess and card room, my mother-in-law originally refused, but when Secretary Fan heard about it——]

"Fan Wenxin has already said it. If you want to say bad things about people behind their backs, you'd better not say it." The man's voice turned cold and he let go of her hand.

Ling Zhao looked at his wrist. There was still a trace of his warmth on the bracelet, but it quickly disappeared.

There was an imperceptible hint of self-mockery.

In fact, the bracelet was worn at the party. He held her hand in his palm and squeezed it again and again, but he didn't find the bracelet. It was not until she told him specifically that he knew about it.

The trouble was caused by Fan Wenxin, but he was reluctant to say a harsh word to her.

Ling Zhao saw through them, but at this moment he still couldn't stop feeling sad.

How considerate is the man she married to her?

Even if it's just acting and it's all fake, there should be some truth in it, right?

Ling Zhao took a deep breath. Fortunately, she was now planning to leave him instead of competing for his love.

"It will be good for you to get into Madam Xu's circle. I will ask someone to prepare the bracelet as a return gift. Invite her out for tea often during this period."

Huo Yixiu gave a few instructions, then took off his clothes and took a bath.

He forgot to take his clothes and asked Ling Zhao to take them to the bathroom.

Ling Zhao took the home clothes. Huo Yixiu had a towel wrapped around his waist. He glanced at the home clothes and frowned: "Go get the suit."

Ling Zhao walked back and forth again and went in carrying a black suit.

Huo Yixiu put on his shirt and trousers quickly, then picked up his suit jacket and put it over his arm. Without even taking his tie, he called Jiang Shang and left.

Didn't say where to go.

Ling Zhao didn't ask either.

She lay on the bed and scrolled through her phone, feeling relaxed and not caring about other people's lives.

Teacher Du was furious because of Fan Wenxin’s misfortune and Huo Yixiu was busy putting out the fire. What did it have to do with her?

I don’t know if Fan Wenxin’s apology will be useful after this incident, and whether Teacher Du still trusts her.

Ling Zhao curled his lips sarcastically.

The admission quota has been on the hot search list again. It seems that Fan Wenxin’s public relations team can’t suppress it.

……

At the company, Fan Wenxin put out fires all night and was exhausted. His eyes were red from anxiety.

Those new media bloggers are too difficult to deal with. Some of them have a tough attitude and posted screenshots of their demands for deletion of articles online, which intensified public opinion.

Seeing Huo Yixiu, Fan Wenxin's eyes became even redder.

"Yi Xiu..." She felt wronged and blamed herself, "It's all my fault for not thinking it through."

The usually strong and intelligent woman now admitted her mistake with red eyes, and no one would be willing to blame her.

Huo Yixiu had a stern face but didn't say anything to her.

He turned on his computer to follow public opinion, saying, "The number of recommended students is not something that can be decided by Teacher Du alone. Someone is setting up a trap in this matter."

His face was gloomy and cold.

Fan Wenxin had been working with him for many years and they had a tacit understanding. He immediately realized, "Targeting you?"

……

Huo Yixiu did not return home all night. When Ling Zhao got up in the morning, his pillow was empty.

Mrs. Huo was shocked and her blood pressure rose. She lay in bed unable to get up. Aunt Zhang brought her breakfast, but she came out after eating only a few bites.

Ling Zhao also had to pretend to have no appetite, eat a few mouthfuls of porridge and drink the extremely bitter Chinese medicine.

Fan Wenxin, who had not shown up all night, came back with Huo Yixiu.

Ling Zhao blinked, and Huo Yixiu sat down opposite her. Seeing her expression, Aunt Zhang immediately went to get the bowls and chopsticks to prepare breakfast for the two of them.

Fan Wenxin looked very tired, and her voice was hoarse: "I'll go see Aunt Huo."

Ling Zhao noticed that her bag was bulging, and he wondered what good stuff she had stuffed inside to appease others.

When she turned her gaze back, she found that Huo Yizheng was looking at her.

Ling Zhao lowered his head and drank the last sip of medicine. He frowned at the bitterness and quickly stuffed a rice dumpling candy into his mouth.

Huo Yixiu saw the bowl of porridge on the side and asked: "You eat so little?"

The cousin glanced at Ling Zhao and chimed in, "Mr. Huo didn't come home last night, and his wife waited until very late before going to bed."

Ling Zhao drooped his eyelids. At this time, Fan Wenxin came downstairs with Huo's mother. She looked much better than last night.

I don’t know how Fan Wenxin coaxed people, but she seemed to have no grudges at all and was as intimate as before.

Aunt Zhang served more porridge to Mother Huo, who ate with great appetite.

"You still have a way... Unlike some people, who eat well, sleep well, are not anxious at all, and have the leisure to show off the bracelet under their husbands' eyes, unlike the people in this family."
