Chapter 224: Showing Off Your Book Bag
Chi Muzhen sneered, "I think you are not suffering from lovesickness, but mental illness. I suggest you go to a mental hospital to check your brain."
After saying that, she pushed Huo Yunting away and slammed the door shut.
Huo Yunting was not angry and said, "Zhenzhen, I want to talk to you."
A few seconds later, Chi Muzhen's indifferent voice came from inside.
"I have nothing to talk to you about. Please go away."
There was no sound outside the door. Chi Muzhen thought he had left, so she ignored him and continued watching TV.
Half an hour later, the doorbell rang again.
This time, Chi Muzhen looked through the peephole and confirmed that it was the delivery man before opening the door.
Unexpectedly, just as I took the takeaway, a figure next to me flashed into the living room.
Chi Muzhen was stunned for a moment, then said coldly: "Huo Yunting, is this interesting to you?"
Huo Yunting looked at her innocently and said, "Since you didn't give me a chance to talk to you, I had no choice but to use this method."
The delivery man looked at Chi Muzhen and asked, "Do you need help?"
Noticing the delivery man's kindness, Chi Muzhen was about to speak when Huo Yunting spoke.
"We are husband and wife, we just had a fight recently. Thank you for your concern, you can go now."
Chi Muzhen gritted her teeth and looked at him, wishing she could throw the takeaway in her hand directly into his face.
"Who are you and your spouse? Stop talking nonsense!"
"The ex-husband is no longer a husband?"
Chi Muzhen: "..."
How come she hadn't noticed Huo Yunting was so shameless before?!
The delivery man beside him was still a little worried and said slowly: "How about I call the police for you?"
This client looks weak and fragile. If the man wants to do something to hurt her, she will definitely not be able to resist.
Chi Muzhen took a deep breath, looked at the delivery man and said softly: "Thank you, but no need, I can handle it myself."
Hearing her say this, the delivery man turned around and left without interfering in her affairs.
Chi Muzhen's expression quickly turned cold. He walked directly to the sofa with the takeaway and sat down. He said coldly, "If you have anything to say, you can say it now. Then leave quickly."
Huo Yunting walked over and sat down opposite her. He looked at her seriously and said, "There's really nothing going on between Chi Xuan and me. She came to see me that day for business. I was indeed showering when you called, but I was in the hotel upstairs at the time, and Chi Xuan was in the restaurant. If you don't believe me, you can go to the restaurant and check the surveillance."
Chi Muzhen looked at him calmly, without any fluctuation in her eyes.
"Are you done?"
Huo Yunting pursed his lips and said nothing, but it was obvious that he was in a bad mood at the moment.
Chi Muzhen didn't believe him!
"You still don't want to believe me."
Chi Muzhen lowered her eyes and said, "Please leave now that you're done. I don't want to verify whether what you said is true or not, just like you don't know why I want to break up."
Huo Yunting frowned and said slowly, "Zhenzhen, if you think I did something wrong, you can tell me directly instead of making me guess."
Chi Muzhen smiled sarcastically, "I told you, but you never cared. Now that you have finished speaking, please leave."
The living room fell into silence, as if the air was stagnant.
After a long time, Huo Yunting got up and walked out of the villa.
Chi Muzhen took a look at the cold takeaway and had no desire to eat it, so she threw it into the trash can, turned off the lights and went upstairs.
After resting at home for a few days and almost recovering, Chi Muzhen went straight back to work at MY.
When Shen Tian saw her, her eyes were filled with shock, and she immediately stepped forward to grab her hand, fearing that she was hallucinating.
"Zhenzhen, when did you come back? I've been trying to call you lately but couldn't get through. I was so worried. Where have you been all this time?!"
Chi Muzhen explained, "My phone was accidentally broken before, so I haven't had the chance to buy a new one. I'll ask Xu Qing to help me get a new card later."
"Well, a lot has happened in Rongcheng recently. Ever since Huo Tianyi took over the Huo Group, he's rejected all the cooperation we agreed to with them. He's also been working on a new business plan and looking for new clients. He's been so busy. Luckily, you're back."
Chi Muzhen frowned, stopped and looked at Chen Tian.
"You just said that Huo Tianyi took over the Huo Group?"
Shen Tian nodded, "Yes, Huo Yunting was previously falsely accused of embezzling company funds and tax evasion, and was detained in the police station for several days before being released. Didn't you know?"
Chi Muzhen was silent for a while, then said, "Tiantian, I'm going back to the office first. There will be a meeting in the conference room in two hours. Go and notify the other shareholders."
After saying that, Chi Muzhen turned around and left.
Looking at her hurried back, Shen Tian's eyes flashed with doubt. Shouldn't Chi Muzhen be the first to know about the replacement of Huo's people?
After returning to the office, Chi Muzhen immediately opened the web to search for news about the Huo Group. She soon saw the news that Huo Tianyi became the new president of the Huo Group and Huo Yunting was embezzling public funds and tax evasion scandals.
The more she looked, the tighter her brows furrowed. The days when Huo Yunting was detained happened to be the days when Old Madam Huo was assassinated. She took Old Madam Huo to Licheng during those days. No wonder he didn't answer the phone when she called him in Licheng.
Chi Muzhen's hand holding the mouse tightened unconsciously, and he didn't know what to feel.
He encountered such a big thing, but he didn't even mention a word to her.
But...she never gave him a chance.
After a while, Chi Muzhen quietly closed the webpage. No matter what he was like now, it had nothing to do with her.
Xu Qing acted quickly and helped Chi Muzhen replace her card and buy a new phone in the afternoon.
As soon as Chi Muzhen inserted the card and turned on the phone, countless missed calls and unread messages flooded in. A few of them belonged to Chen Tian and Zhen Yan, and the others were from the same person.
She pursed her lips and clicked on the unread messages.
Ever since her phone broke, she received dozens of messages almost every day from morning to late at night asking her where she was and asking her to call back.
Chi Muzhen read it word by word and deleted it one by one, but she couldn't calm down.
She put down her phone and let out a breath.
From the information between the lines of Huo Yunting's words, she could tell that he was really worried about her, but it was also a fact that he and Chi Xuan were entangled.
She never wanted to experience the despair she had experienced on the cruise ship again in her life.
In the evening, just as Chi Muzhen got off work and walked downstairs to the company, Cheng Shumin came to find her.
"Chi Muzhen, where did you take the old lady? Why did you disappear with the old lady? Now you are back safe and sound, but there is no news from the old lady?!"
Cheng Shumin's eyes were full of anger, and she looked at Chi Muzhen as if she was looking at a murderer.
Now, only the 40% shares in the hands of the old lady plus the 10% shares in the hands of Huo Yunting can pull Huo Tianyi down from the position of president of Huo Group, so she can't wait for the old lady Huo to appear in front of her immediately.
Chi Muzhen frowned and said in a cold voice, "Grandma Huo is recuperating in a safe place now and will be back in half a month."
She has already told Huo Yunting about this. Didn’t he tell Cheng Shumin?
"Half a month?!"
Cheng Shumin's voice suddenly rose, "I can't wait that long! Tell me where the old lady is right now, or I won't let you go!"
Old Mrs. Huo's health is too poor. If she doesn't take good care of herself this time, she will develop a chronic illness and her health will deteriorate rapidly.
Thinking of this person, Chi Muzhen said expressionlessly: "I said half a month, and it means half a month. If you can't wait, it's your business."
Seeing Chi Muzhen wanted to leave, Cheng Shumin raised her hand and slapped her angrily.
Chi Muzhen's eyes turned cold, but before she could make a move, Cheng Shumin's hand was stopped.
Seeing that it was Huo Yunting, Cheng Shumin was even more furious and shouted angrily, "Yunting, you still want to protect her now?! Let's not talk about whether your grandmother is safe now. Wait for half a month and Huo Tianyi will transfer all the assets he needs to transfer. Even if you take back the Huo Group, it will just be an empty shell!"
Huo Yunting's expression was icy as he spoke word by word, "Since she said it took half a month, she must have her reasons. I believe her!"
Hearing his firm tone, Chi Muzhen's eyelashes trembled unconsciously, and the hands hanging by her side tightened unconsciously.
