Chapter 450: Twos and Threes
"No one will ask!"
"Are you sure?"
Seeing Huo Yunting looking at her with a half-smile, Xiao Muzhen gritted her teeth in anger and said angrily, "It's all because of you! It's all your fault!"
Huo Yunting nodded. "Well, I know I was wrong. I will definitely exercise restraint next time."
Xiao Muzhen: "..."
After sending Xiao Muzhen back to her room, Huo Yunting smiled and said, "Do you want to rest here by yourself, or should I accompany you?"
"No, go away. I don't really want to see you right now."
Before what happened last night, Xiao Muzhen had never thought that he would have to take leave because of such a thing.
Thinking about it now, I still feel ashamed.
Knowing that she was shy, Huo Yunting's smile deepened and he whispered, "If you need anything, call me anytime."
Xiao Muzhen pulled the quilt to cover her face, looking like she didn't want to see him.
Huo Yunting didn't say anything else and turned and walked out of the bedroom.
As soon as I returned to the study, I received a call from Koning.
"Boss Huo, we've already found out. When the Xiao family was on the rise, they did some shady things."
Huo Yunting's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said in a cold voice: "Deal with those things. I want the Xiao family to have no unclean places."
"Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, a cold look flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes.
If Su Baitian wanted to separate him and Xiao Muzhen, the fastest and most effective way would be to use the Xiao family to threaten Xiao Muzhen, but he would not give Su Baitian this opportunity.
But in order to protect Xiao Muzhen, he needs to be stronger, and returning to the Su family is his best choice.
But... he will never marry Guo Zhenzhen!
After resting at home for a day, Xiao Muzhen finally recovered.
The next morning, after breakfast, she drove directly to the company.
When Huo Yunting called, she was already halfway there.
"Zhenzhen, where are you now?!" His voice was worried and seemed a little anxious.
There was a red light ahead. Xiao Muzhen stopped the car and then said slowly, "I'm on my way to the company. I'm driving myself today."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while before Huo Yunting's voice came again.
"Why don't you let me take you there? Are you shy?"
Xiao Muzhen's face turned red again, and she gritted her teeth and said, "You think too much. I just don't want to see you!"
"It seems that you are shy."
"Huo Yunting, do you know how to listen to others?"
Huo Yunting chuckled, "I heard you. You don't want to see me, isn't it because you're shy?"
Xiao Muzhen: "..."
After a few seconds, she hung up the phone angrily.
This man really didn't give her any face at all.
At noon, Xie Fu came to Xiao Muzhen for lunch. After hearing about what had happened to them recently, she spat out a mouthful of tea.
"Zhenzhen, it looks like your sex life will be very happy in the future."
After all, it must be of extraordinary size if it could keep her from getting out of bed for a whole day.
Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but glared at her and said unhappily, "I'm mainly talking to you about Guo Zhenzhen's entanglement with him, not this!"
"I think this is much more important. After all, whether a man is capable or not greatly affects the quality of life after marriage."
Xiao Muzhen: "..."
Seeing her face darken, Xie Fu stopped teasing her and said with a smile, "As for Guo Zhenzhen, I don't think you need to care. From your description, I don't think Huo Yunting has any affection for her at all. And with such a precious person like you before him, how could he possibly still be interested in Guo Zhenzhen's simple porridge and side dishes?"
"But looking at Guo Zhenzhen, it seems she won't give up easily."
"What are you worried about? Nothing that can be snatched away is good. If something really happens between Huo Yunting and Guo Zhenzhen, it's just God helping you to choose a scumbag. It's not a pity to lose him."
Xiao Muzhen felt that what she said made some sense, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
After dinner, the two went back to work.
As soon as I returned to the design department, I saw many colleagues from the design department standing in front of Ding Yue's desk.
"Yueyue, you're so amazing! Your design will be exhibited at the design exhibition next month. Aren't you excited?!"
"Alas...it turns out that talent is required for everything. Look, Yueyue just started working and her design draft was approved by Manager Yan and the client not long ago. We have been in the company for several years and are still not making any progress!"
"Talent is something you can't envy, but if there's anything we don't understand in the future, we can come and ask Yueyue. You won't refuse us, right?"
Ding Yue sat in the middle of the crowd, like the moon surrounded by stars, with a smug smile on her face.
"Of course, I will help if I can!"
When passing by, Xiao Muzhen listened to the general idea, but she had no interest in it at all and walked straight past everyone towards her office.
Suddenly, a colleague called her.
"Designer Xiao, Yueyue is your assistant. The costumes she designed this time were also a one-time success. You must be happy for her, right?"
"What assistant? Haven't you heard? Manager Yan was called to a meeting by the general manager to discuss Yueyue's promotion. From now on, she will be a formal designer like us."
"Haha, look at Xiao Design's condition. I'm afraid he doesn't even know when Yueyue submitted her design draft!"
Seeing everyone's eyes on him, all with an expression of enjoying the show, Xiao Muzhen curled his lips and smiled.
"I don't know."
She looked at Ding Yue and said calmly, "Congratulations, Assistant Ding."
Meeting her cold gaze, Ding Yue suddenly felt guilty for no reason and the smile on his face almost disappeared.
"Xiao Design, thank you."
Xiao Muzhen didn't say anything else, turned around and went straight into the office.
The colleagues around couldn't help but talk about Xiao Muzhen, and their words were full of contempt and disdain.
"Who does she think she is? She's so arrogant! I've disliked her since the day she joined Qingshang. I don't know where she gets the nerve to be so rude to everyone!"
"I think so too. She never greets us when she sees us. She looks down on us!"
"It's really bad luck to work in the same company with someone like her. Her face makes me feel bad!"
Listening to everyone scolding Xiao Muzhen, Ding Yue was extremely happy in her heart, but she looked embarrassed on the surface.
"Okay, stop talking. Although Xiao Sheji has a cold personality, he's still a good person. It's not nice to say bad things about your colleagues behind their backs."
Her colleagues began to speak up for her, and their tone was full of dissatisfaction with Xiao Muzhen.
"With someone as talented as you as her assistant, what else could she be dissatisfied with? I think she's just conceited and thinks no one can compare to her!"
"I think so too, but luckily Yueyue is going to be promoted to designer soon!"
"Yes, yes, congratulations!"
At this moment, in Xiao Muzhen's office.
As soon as she sat down in her seat, she noticed something was wrong.
I lowered my head and opened the third drawer, and sure enough, I found that all the design drawings I had recently drawn were gone.
She sneered and understood where the design drawings that Ding Yue was selected came from!
