Chapter 10: Harsh
Nothing can be hidden in the company.
Mr. Huo’s kiss mark was, and Xu Qingsui was also scolded.
After Xu Qingsui became a regular employee, many people became jealous, as this industry was very competitive.
It just so happened that Xu Qingsui was lucky, and even Guo Lin, who was very arrogant, treated Xu Qingsui differently.
It is rare for Xu Qingsui to have this day.
Xu Qingsui's work had to be redone and she didn't even have time to eat, but then Huo Xilin's message came.
"There's a party tomorrow, come with me."
Xu Qingsui wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he agreed: "Okay."
She couldn't exclude Huo Xilin's social circle.
Even though, she might be a substitute in the eyes of their group of people.
Huo Xilin replied: "Are you having trouble at work?"
Xu Qingsui pursed his lips.
She didn't reply, unable to tell what she was feeling at the moment.
Intrigues and deceptions at work are not uncommon, and she has been prepared for this, but she still somewhat dislikes such petty tricks.
Huo Xilin's message soon popped up again: "Sometimes, not teaching her a lesson is not because you can't, but because it's not the right time. The best response is to perform better."
If you are wrong, everything you say and do will be an excuse.
But if you win, the reckoning is the most refreshing.
Xu Qingsui's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he lowered his head to finish his work.
Her previous information did have omissions, and many details were not accurate enough. Perhaps, this was not just a reprimand, but an opportunity.
Xu Qingsui was so busy that he still hadn't finished his get off work until the end of the day.
Fortunately, she remembered moving with Huo Xilin.
However, as soon as she came out of the company, she ran into Lu Jingyu and Gu Rong who came with ill intentions.
"What are you doing here?"
Without waiting for Lu Jingyu to speak, Xu Qingsui spoke coldly.
Gu Rong on the side pretended to be serious and bit her lip: "Aunt Lu's birthday is coming soon. Brother Jingyu and I are here to invite you to attend Aunt Lu's birthday party."
"No."
Xu Qingsui had no feelings for Lu's mother, and Lu's mother didn't like her either.
She turned around and was about to leave, but Lu Jingyu grabbed her wrist and said impatiently: "Don't be shameless. I don't care who you hook up with outside, but you must go to this dinner with me. You must get married!"
If his grandfather hadn't warned that if Xu Qingsui didn't come, his shares would be taken back and his bank card would be frozen, he would never have cared about this woman!
He was furious at the thought that this bitch might have found someone else to marry.
When this birthday party is over, he will skin the adulterer alive!
Gu Rong also added fuel to the fire: "Yes, Miss Xu, after all, the Lu family has done you a favor, you can't..."
Xu Qingsui's face became increasingly colder as she listened. She was about to say something when she caught a glimpse of the necklace around Gu Rong's neck.
That was left to her by her grandmother.
It was originally a set of jewelry.
Later, it was lost in the Lu family!
Xu Qingsui's expression changed: "Who gave this to you?"
Gu Rong was stunned.
Lu Jingyu, who was standing by, was a little displeased after seeing the necklace: "I gave it to Rongrong, what's wrong with it? It's just a necklace, what's the big deal? No wonder your Xu family has become like that, the two old fools..."
Before he could finish his words, Xu Qingsui raised his hand and slapped him in the face.
As Lu Jingyu looked incredulous, Xu Qingsui raised his hand and slapped him again.
She looked at Lu Jingyu, clenched her hands, and said lightly: "I slap you for being unkind and unjust, using my things to please the mistress. I slap you for being ungrateful. My grandparents loved you very much when they were alive, and you can say such words."
Xu Qingsui has always been too lazy to care about the Lu family's affairs, but she is not heartless. She cannot let her grandparents be pointed at after their death and their hard work fall into the hands of others.
Lu Jingyu was a little dazed by her two slaps, and Gu Rong beside him was even more stunned.
After a moment, she suddenly woke up and bit her lip: "Why do you say that this necklace is yours? It was obviously given to me by Jingyu."
The jewelry set was so dazzling that she loved it the first time she saw it.
Only then did she beg Lu Jingyu to give it to her.
Xu Qingsui’s things originally belonged to the Lu family.
Lu Jingyu reacted even more, his face gloomy: "Rongrong is right, this necklace originally belonged to our Lu family, why do you say it's yours?!"
Xu Qingsui said coldly: "Since you refuse to admit it, then call the police."
Seeing that things had gotten out of hand, Gu Rong felt panicked for a moment.
Lu Jingyu sneered, "So what if you call the police? No one can prove that this set of jewelry is yours. If you want this set of jewelry, fine, as long as you are willing to reconcile and marry me, I will return this set of jewelry to you."
"Bigamy is against the law."
A man's deep voice sounded behind him. Huo Xilin looked at the two of them coldly and said slowly, "This is all the Lu family taught you?"
Lu Jingyu recognized him at a glance as the man who rescued Xu Qingsui that day.
bigamy?
This bitch is married?
impossible!
I'm afraid this man is deliberately using bigamy as an excuse!
He glanced at Xu Qingsui and said sarcastically, "So this is the high branch you climbed? I thought he was some big shot!"
Lu Jingyu and Huo Xilin have nothing in common, and he is not very clear about Huo Xilin's identity.
What's more, Huo Xilin changed into casual clothes, and Lu Jingyu just thought Huo Xilin was an ordinary senior executive.
Huo Xilin put his arm around Xu Qingsui's waist and said with a half-smile: "I don't have much ability. But I want to protect my wife, and I can still do it."
Thinking of the conflict between the two, Lu Jingyu's face changed.
He frowned and said, "Xu Qingsui, I advise you to think it over carefully, unless you don't want to get your jewelry back."
After saying this, he took Gu Rong away.
Xu Qingsui did not stop him, but just looked at the backs of the two men with a cold expression.
"Should we call the police?"
Huo Xilin looked at the backs of the two men, but Xu Qingsui shook his head: "I can handle it."
Huo Xilin frowned, put his big hand around her waist, lifted her chin with his fingertips, and looked at her.
"Mrs. Huo, if you need me, you can tell me anytime."
