Chen Zhe took a taxi back to his apartment.
I just opened the door.
He found Hu Ling standing in the living room, arms crossed, coldly watching him.
"You actually know how to come back? Do you even know what time it is? Things aren't like they used to be. How can you stay out so late at work? Have you been out fooling around?"
"Huh? fooling around? No, I didn't!"
Chen Zhe denied it.
"No?"
Hu Ling took a few steps forward, sniffed the air, and her expression grew even colder.
"I'll give you one more chance. Whose perfume are you wearing? Is it that woman, Mu Wanzhi's?"
"I... Ugh! What are you thinking? I've been at the company all day."
"Then what's with the perfume smell on you? Don't tell me you sprayed it on yourself. There's no perfume in your room, and not in the bathroom either. You can't fool me."
"This...sigh, this is Yang Yun's."
When I was in the car with Yang Yun just now, Yang Yun leaned against me, and the perfume that Hu Ling smelled must have been hers.
"What??? You bastard! Even rabbits don't eat the grass near their burrows, Yang Yun, you actually made a move on her too?!"
Hu Ling became agitated, and her breathing became rapid.
"Sister Hu... Sister Hu, please don't misunderstand, it's not what you think..."
"What do you mean no? You came home so late tonight, did you just stay with her the whole time?"
"It's true that I was with her, but it was for work..."
"You're talking nonsense! Can't work be done during the day? What are the company's rules and regulations now? Is it really necessary to work overtime until now?"
"I didn't want to either. I was about to leave work when Yang Yun suddenly stopped me and insisted on discussing some plan with me. I really couldn't refuse, so I ended up working overtime with her until now."
"Yang Yun has always disliked you. How could she possibly ask to work overtime with you? Tell me, did you force her to do something? What did I tell you back then? I told you not to have office romances at the company. Did you even listen?"
"Sister Hu, I'm innocent!!! It's a huge injustice! If I really had something going on with her, why would I have rushed back?"
"Who knows you? Maybe you came back because you felt guilty after doing that filthy thing, trying to hide it from me."
"I'm truly impressed!!"
Even with his good temper, Chen Zhe couldn't stand being wronged like this. He had already made a lot of efforts to avoid Yang Yun, but he still ended up being talked about like this.
"You admit it, right? You lecherous monster, you just got involved with Mu Wanzhi, and now you're forcing Yang Yun to be your lover. What are you going to do next? Are you going to take all the women in the company for yourself?"
Hu Ling took a step closer and raised her voice again.
The noise from their argument startled Abao downstairs.
Ah Bao opened the door, walked quietly up the stairs, and twitched his ears, trying to hear more clearly.
Just then, the door was suddenly opened, and Chen Zhe staggered out.
Immediately afterwards, his clothes and other belongings were thrown out.
The stairs were littered with trash.
Hu Ling stood at the door, her chest heaving with anger.
"Get out!! Don't ever come back in! It's an insult to me to live with someone as filthy as you!"
Bang!
The door was slammed shut.
Abao stood on the stairs, staring at Chen Zhe with his mouth agape.
Chen Zhe's lips twitched slightly, his expression a little embarrassed; "Brother Bao, you're still awake?"
Abao gave an awkward laugh.
"Mr. Chen, if you really have nowhere to sleep tonight, why don't you come with me?"
...
In Abao's room.
Ah Bao carried a quilt to another room.
"Thank you, Brother Bao, I'll take care of it!"
Chen Zhe took the quilt and made himself up.
Ah Bao stood at the door and didn't leave.
After Chen Zhe finished making the bed, he saw that Bao Ge was still standing there and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Bao, is something the matter?"
Ah Bao scratched his head.
"Mr. Chen, there are some things I shouldn't say, but the old man did give me some instructions before he returned to Beijing..."
"Okay, go ahead."
"It's just... it's just that Master hopes you and Miss can get along peacefully."
Chen Zhe sighed helplessly.
“Brother Bao, I didn’t mean to provoke her. I don’t know what I did wrong. I came back from working overtime at the company and she got angry at me. She wouldn’t listen to any of my explanations and insisted that I had an improper relationship with Manager Yang. Where can I reason with her?”
Ah Bao gave an awkward smile; "Mr. Chen, perhaps Miss is in a bad mood."
"hehe……"
Chen Zhe was speechless.
“Brother Bao, to put it bluntly, even if something really happened between Manager Yang and me, is that a huge crime? What does it have to do with her? Yes, that's right, she did say that colleagues shouldn't have these kinds of ambiguous relationships, but that was a rule from the past. I know that some people in the company are dating now, and I believe she knows that too. Does she have to impose this rule on me? She's clearly targeting me. I've worked hard for the company, and even if I haven't made any great contributions, I've still put in a lot of effort, right? Why is she treating me like this?”
Now, Linglong Group is entirely supported by Chen Zhe. He has to handle all kinds of matters, big and small, and he's so busy all day long that he can't even get a good night's sleep when he gets home. He's really exhausted.
"Mr. Chen... do you think... do you think... is it possible that Miss is jealous?"
"Jealous????"
Chen Zhe was stunned.
"What...what nonsense are you talking about? What...what kind of jealousy is she?"
Ah Bao smiled.
"Mr. Chen, I've been through this before, and I've watched Miss Chen grow up. I know her personality. She's never cared about a man like this before. The fact that she cares so much about you and your relationship with other women is clearly because she's jealous."
Hearing that Hu Ling might be jealous, Chen Zhe suddenly felt a little flustered.
"Brother Bao, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Sister Hu and I have a working relationship, there's nothing between us..."
"Yes, that might have been the case before. Miss used to treat you like a colleague, but... but ever since the master came, Miss seems to have changed a bit. During the few days you went to Southern Xinjiang, she became a little sensitive. One day she asked me what kind of gift you would like..."
"Huh?? Brother Bao, don't scare me! You mean Sister Hu has feelings for me?"
Abao nodded.
"Mr. Chen, can't you sense it?"
"How...how could I tell? After I came back, she became as fierce as a tigress, never giving me a kind look. She's like a completely different person compared to before."
"Isn't that it?"
What is it?
"This shows that Miss really likes you, Mr. Chen. The master hopes that she will be with you. Actually, I also hope that the two of you can be together. I have watched the two of you come together all the way and support each other until now. You are the most suitable person for Miss."
Chen Zhe's expression suddenly became conflicted.
His mind is in complete turmoil.
[What on earth is going on? Everyone was fine before, but ever since I confessed to Xiaoyu, they've all been acting like they're possessed. Mu Wanzhi is like this, Yang Yun is like this, and now Sister Hu is like this too...]
