Chapter 53 Shen Luo was hit by a car!
"Rou Rou!" Mo Chi's anxious voice came from the company entrance.
Chu Rou didn't turn around. Taking advantage of Ye Xia's momentary distraction, she stepped forward and chopped at the numb spot on Ye Xia's arm with her hand.
"Ah!" Ye Xia cried out, her hand loosened, and the lighter fell to the ground. Chu Rou caught the lighter with quick reflexes and kicked Ye Xia in the stomach.
"Ah!" Another scream rang out as Ye Xia fell to the ground two meters away.
Chu Rou wanted to kick her a couple more times, but Mo Chi had already run over, taken off Chu Rou's coat and threw it on the ground, picked her up and ran into the company building.
Ye Xia has been taken into custody by security guards and is waiting for the police to arrive and take her away.
Chu Rou patted Mo Chi's shoulder and said, "Put me down. I'm not hurt. I can walk by myself."
Mo Chi's eyes were red. Without saying a word, he carried Chu Rou into the changing room of the security department on the first floor, where there was a shower.
At this time, there was no one inside. Mo Chi still looked inside and out to make sure no one was there, then locked the door, took off all of Chu Rou's clothes, and threw them into a trash bag.
"Mo Bao, please leave me at least one piece!" Chu Rou covered her private parts with her hands.
"Go inside and take a shower. I'll have someone bring your clothes over right away," Mo Chi said in a deep voice.
Chu Rou knew that gasoline could damage the skin. Most of the gasoline was absorbed by the coat, but some inevitably seeped in and got on her skin.
She didn't mince words; she walked barefoot into the bathroom and washed herself thoroughly with warm water from head to toe.
After Chu Rou finished showering, she was wrapped in an enormous bath towel.
Mo Chi was only wearing underwear; he had taken off all his clothes.
He held Chu Rou in his arms, "Rou Rou, I was almost scared to death today."
Chu Rou leaned against Mo Chi's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, which was much faster than usual. "I'm so scared too, so scared of dying. I haven't gotten married or had a baby yet, and I haven't enjoyed life enough!"
Mo Chi tightened his arms around her. "From now on, we'll be together 24/7. I can't let you go out alone anymore."
Chu Rou chuckled. "It's not that serious. It was just an accident. Do you think I'll lose my freedom?"
"I'll go wherever you want to go!" Mo Chi said softly.
Touched, Chu Rou tilted her head back and kissed Mo Chi's chin.
Mo Chi lowered his head, and their lips had just touched when someone knocked on the door.
Chu Rou gave him a light, fleeting kiss on the lips. "Go check, is it someone delivering clothes?"
Mo Chi walked to the door, opened it only a crack, and two large bags were stuffed inside.
After taking the bag, Mo Chi closed the door, and the two of them put on their clothes.
Chu Rou's eyes widened when she saw the brand and price tag on the clothes. "Mo Bao, this outfit of mine costs 100,000 yuan from head to toe!"
After hearing this, Mo Chi was somewhat displeased. "Why did you buy such cheap clothes? Next time I'll have them buy better ones."
Huh? Chu Rou blinked, their conversation seemed to have no common ground. "Um... Mo Bao, I meant the clothes were too expensive."
“It’s not expensive, you deserve the best,” Mo Chi fastened his belt and patted her head. “Your husband will buy you clothes, shoes and bags from now on.”
"I have enough clothes, let's save some money!"
Chu Rou knew that Mo Chi was rich, but even rich people shouldn't squander their money. As the saying goes, making money is easy, but keeping it is difficult. She had to teach Mo Chi how to manage his finances.
She glanced at Mo Chi's clothes and frowned. He used to wear clothes that cost several thousand yuan when he was in school, but after he started working at the company, the prices had increased several times over. "Your clothes are too expensive. A few thousand yuan is already very good."
Mo Chi smiled indulgently, took out a bank card from his wallet and handed it to Chu Rou, "This is my salary card from Wanhua. You can keep it safe. Buy whatever the family needs."
Chu Rou accepted it without hesitation, "If you need money, just ask me. I'll give you some pocket money every month."
"Okay!" Mo Chi and Chu Rou left the security department's changing room.
Upon seeing the two of them, the security chief hurried over to report, "Mr. Mo, the police have taken the person away. The police said the nature of this matter could be serious or minor, depending on what we say."
Mo Chi's face darkened. "Appeal, hire a lawyer, and request the maximum penalty."
Chu Rou wanted to say something, but hesitated for a moment and remained silent. She had almost been burned to death by Ye Xia, so Ye Xia's severe punishment was not unjust.
"Mr. Mo," Chu Rou suggested, "how about we hire Brother Shen Yan as our lawyer?"
Mo Chi glanced at her sideways, his expression displeased.
With the security chief still around, Chu Rou couldn't appease Mo Chi, so she tried to keep a certain distance from him at the company.
"Let's talk upstairs!" Mo Chi took the lead and walked towards the elevator.
Chu Rou quickly followed him into the elevator.
Mo Chi snorted coldly, "You never forget your brother Chen Yan, no matter what."
Chu Rou was speechless. "We have a lawyer at home but we don't use him. If we hire someone else, what will Uncle Shen think?"
"Just this one reason?" Mo Chi turned to ask her.
"Otherwise what?" Chu Rou rolled her eyes at him. "I haven't seen Shen Yan for ten years. How could we possibly have some kind of secret relationship?"
Mo Chi's face turned from black to white, and he agreed with a smile in his eyes, "Then find Brother Shen Yan, I'll contact him."
Back in the president's office, Chu Rou immediately threw herself into her work.
Mo Chi called Shen Yan and told him what had just happened to Chu Rou.
After listening, Shen Yan remained silent for a long time before asking in a deep voice, "Is Xiao Rou alright?"
“It’s alright now,” Mo Chi said, still shaken, “but the situation was very dangerous back then, and I will never forgive that woman.”
Shen Yan gave a faint "hmm," and said, "She can serve a few years in prison."
"Then I'll leave it to Brother Shen Yan. Just contact me if you need anything."
Mo Chi hung up the phone and gave a heavy "humph," saying, "It's too lenient for her to only serve a few years in prison."
Hearing this, Chu Rou looked up and sighed, "She's still your classmate, she worked for you, and she even pursued you. It's really heartless of you to say that."
“She’s just a stranger to me,” Mo Chi said, looking at Chu Rou. “But you are my wife, the mother of my future child, and the most important person to me. No one can hurt you.”
Chu Rou felt a sweet warmth in her heart. Sure enough, a man's sweet words were very effective at winning a woman's heart. She muttered to herself, "I hope you're not just trying to coax me."
...
After lunch, Chu Rou took a nap on the sofa in the office, while Mo Chi was still busy with his work.
Chu Rou's phone on her desk suddenly vibrated. She opened her eyes and got up to pick it up.
I glanced at the caller ID; it was Huang Shan calling. Did she know about Ye Xia and call to gossip?
Chu Rou answered the phone with a smile, "Hello, Shanshan!"
"Sister Chu Rou, something terrible has happened!" Huang Shan's anxious voice came through the phone, "Chen Luo has been hit by a car!"
