Chapter 248 I am my wife's most loyal servant
The car started and drove towards Zhou Mubin's private apartment.
Throughout the journey, Jin Moli appeared weak and helpless. She nestled in Zhou Mubin's arms and said, "Lawyer Zhou, since your friends don't approve of me, let's just call it quits. I don't want to put you in a difficult position."
Whether men could understand it or not, Cui Xiao knew that she was using a strategy of retreat as a means of advancement.
It's just a tactic to manipulate men.
Zhou Mubin coaxed her, "What nonsense are you talking about? We've only just gotten together, and you're already going to dump me?"
Jin Moli wrapped her small hand around his waist and sobbed softly, "I didn't want to either, but you heard what Xibei said to humiliate me. She not only gave me a nickname, but also called me a slut. If you hadn't arrived in time, she would have already hit me. And Nanzhi, although her attitude wasn't as tough, her dissatisfaction with me was obvious. They are your best friends, and I don't want to cause you to drift apart because of me."
Zhou Mubin stroked her hair. "No, the three of us grew up together. Our relationship is unbreakable. We won't fall out so easily. Don't worry."
Jin Moli had her own plans, and seeing that she hadn't gotten what she wanted, she rolled her eyes and said, "Lawyer Zhou, I feel that Xibei's feelings for you are a little different. Is she really interested in you?"
"How is that possible?"
Zhou Mubin immediately denied it.
They grew up together. How could he not know if Xibei had other feelings for him?
Besides, Xibei herself couldn't possibly like any man.
Jin Moli added, "Just because you're not interested in her doesn't mean Xibei feels the same way about you. I think you should keep some distance from her in the future, in case your words come true and you can't even be friends anymore."
As soon as she finished speaking, Cui Xiao, who had been silent all along, couldn't stand it anymore. "Miss Jin is overthinking it. Xi Bei has no such feelings for Zhou Lu. Don't judge a gentleman by your own petty standards."
Cui Xiao spoke bluntly, without giving any face at all.
The two people in the back seat were taken aback at first, and the next second, Zhou Mubin said in a deep voice, "Cui Xiao, you're exaggerating."
Cui Xiao is a man of few words, but she is extremely capable at work, as everyone in the industry knows. Zhou Lu has a capable assistant who is both beautiful and competent.
Over the years, she has been approached by many headhunting companies, but no matter how good the offer is, she will not give it a second glance.
In the past, Cui Xiao would have remained silent, but today she wanted to retort, "Lawyer Zhou, whether someone is good to you or trying to sow discord, I don't believe you can't tell."
Zhou Mubin frowned, his face grim.
He slowly fixed his gaze on Jin Moli, and she immediately said, "Lawyer Zhou, do you think I'm trying to sow discord? I don't understand why your friends, even your assistant, can so easily belittle and humiliate me? Just because I'm divorced and have a child? In their eyes, that's a stain, and I'm not good enough for you no matter what, is that right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Mubin felt a pang of heartache again, and all his previous doubts vanished.
“I didn’t mean that, Xiao Mo. If I cared about these things, I wouldn’t have taken you to see them today.”
"Then why do you doubt me?"
As she spoke, Jin Moli shed a few more tears.
Zhou Mubin paused for a few seconds, then called out, "Cui Xiao, pull the car over to the side of the road."
Cui Xiao obeyed the instructions and parked the car on the side of the road. Then she heard Zhou Mubin say, "You go back first, I'll call a designated driver."
Cui Xiao was stunned for a moment, not quite able to react.
After a long pause, she composed herself and said, "Okay."
Without saying a word more, Cui Xiao got out of the car.
She stood there watching the designated driver Zhou Mubin had called drive away, and only then did the bloodstains on her palm begin to sting.
When you unfold it, it's a bloody mess.
The night in December was still cold. Cui Xiao was dressed in thin clothes and didn't even have an outer coat. When she remembered to call a taxi, she realized that she had forgotten to take her bag from the car.
She had no money on her and couldn't get a taxi. She bit her lip, which turned purple.
Standing in the cold wind, Cui Xiao asked passersby to borrow their phones, and several people ignored her offer of help.
In today's society, indifference among people is quite common.
Finally, a college student was willing to lend her her phone, but Cui Xiao didn't know who to call right away.
Her entire life revolved around Zhou Mubin; she knew more about his daily life, even the exact time he arranged for a cleaning lady to come and clean, than Zhou Mubin, the owner himself.
Therefore, the only people she could contact besides her work partners were Zhou Mubin.
After much deliberation, Cui Xiao could only dial a string of numbers.
Here, Xie Nanzhi and Wei Chizheng had just arrived home. After washing up, Wei Chizheng was making love to Xie Nanzhi.
Unexpectedly, Xie Nanzhi's phone rang.
Wei Chi pressed himself against her, clinging to her tightly.
Xie Nanzhi, panting heavily, said, "I'll take this call first. Get out of the way."
Wei Chizheng didn't care about anything else and kissed her collarbone, murmuring, "Let him wait."
Xie Nanzhi's breathing became erratic. "Wei Chizheng, stop making a scene."
She reached haphazardly for her phone on the bedside table, and after finally getting it, Xie Nanzhi immediately pressed the answer button, "Hello..."
Cui Xiao's voice came through the phone, "Miss Nan, this is Cui Xiao. Is this too late to bother you?"
In Xie Nanzhi's memory, there were always a few instances where Cui Xiao would call her first. She glared at Wei Chizheng.
Wei Chizheng was sensible and did not make any further excessive moves.
Xie Nanzhi: "I just got home too. Did they disturb me? Did something happen?"
Cui Xiao said, "Miss Nan, could you please have your driver come and take me there? Of course, if it's too much trouble, then forget it."
Xie Nanzhi quickly said, "It's not troublesome at all, just tell me the address."
Cui Xiao told her his location, and Xie Nanzhi pushed Wei Chizheng away and got out of bed. "You go to sleep first, I'm going out for a bit."
Xie Nanzhi was still worried, so she decided to go herself.
Wei Chi sat up, a half-smile on his face. "You just abandoned me like that?"
Xie Nanzhi put on her clothes, "temporarily abandoning it."
Wei Chizheng, "a heartless woman."
After saying that, he stood up and walked over in a few steps.
Xie Nanzhi looked at him. "Come with me?"
Wei Chizheng wrapped his arms around her slender waist and kissed the tip of her nose intimately. "I am my wife's most loyal servant."
Xie Nanzhi complained, "It's cheesy."
Dressed neatly, Wei Chizheng was in charge of driving.
Previously at Twilight in Jiangnan, he only drank the glass of wine offered to Huang Yaozu. Now, four or five hours have passed, so he can drive.
It was late at night, and there weren't many cars on the road.
About thirty minutes later, they arrived at the address Cui Xiao had given Xie Nanzhi.
Wei Chizheng parked the car on the side of the road. Xie Nanzhi got out and saw Cui Xiao standing under a street lamp. She was wearing a thin knitted dress. It would be fine if it were sunny during the day, but the temperature was clearly unbearable now.
Upon seeing Xie Nanzhi, Cui Xiao was somewhat surprised, "Miss Nan, why did you come in person?"
Xie Nanzhi then draped her coat over her shoulders, saying, "I was worried, so I decided to come over myself."
