Chapter 12 When the Playboy Turns Over a New Leaf
Liao Zhuxin was stunned for a moment. Recently, Ji Huaizhi had been going home every day, either at home or at the company.
I almost forgot that he used to love going out and having fun.
Ji Huaizhi realized that those people were all the original owner's cronies, and it would indeed be inappropriate not to attend their banquets and parties.
"It's really hard to refuse now, he told me in advance," Fang Yu said with difficulty.
"When?" Ji Huaizhi asked.
"I sent you a message next weekend night so you can take a look," Fang Yu said, raising an eyebrow.
"I understand, I'll go." Ji Huaizhi glanced at Liao Zhuxin: "Zhuxin and I will go together."
Fang Yu pouted: "Okay, okay."
After everyone left, Liao Zhuxin hesitated and said, "You go and have fun. My condition isn't suitable for being in a group."
“If you don’t go, I definitely can’t leave early.” Ji Huaizhi tapped on his phone: “I’ve already told Lu Qingfeng that smoking will be prohibited at the party.”
"Come with me, and come back early so we can try on wedding dresses the next day."
Liao Zhuxin stopped refusing after hearing him say that.
"I'll listen to you."
Ji Huaizhi looked up with a mischievous grin: "So obedient?"
Liao Zhuxin chuckled, got up and walked over, boldly sitting on Ji Huaizhi's lap.
Perhaps because she rarely initiates such close contact with him, her cheeks turned slightly red.
Ji Huaizhi looked at her with amusement: "You came to tease me, but you're the one who's embarrassed?"
"Where's that girl who used to come to your office all the time?" Liao Zhuxin had noticed long ago that the girl was no longer at her workstation outside.
The girl who had treated her badly when she came before was nowhere to be seen these past few times.
"Which one?" Ji Huaizhi didn't have a clear impression.
"It's that girl who used to come into your office all the time," Liao Zhuxin said curiously.
Ji Huaizhi: "He made a mistake and was transferred."
Liao Zhuxin: "What mistake did you make?"
"She seduced your husband." Ji Huaizhi looked at her helplessly: "Why didn't you say so when you knew she wasn't honest?"
"She just comes to your office often. If I were to offer to fire her and transfer her, wouldn't that make me seem petty?"
Liao Zhuxin was quite happy that she hadn't seen her for a while.
"What are you afraid of, you're the boss's wife?"
Liao Zhuxin was delighted by her coaxing and said with a smile, "Huaizhi, I'm so happy."
Ji Huaizhi raised an eyebrow: "Whatever makes you happy."

weekend.
Ji Huaizhi had a lot of clothes sent over for Liao Zhuxin to try on, and Liao Zhuxin's eyes were dazzled by the sight of them.
"Huaizhi, you choose for me," Liao Zhuxin said coquettishly.
Ji Huaizhi put down his work, stood up, and helped her put one hand in his pocket to help her choose: "Try this one."
The staff member who was helping her said to Liao Zhuxin with envy, "Your husband is so good to you. These clothes are all new styles. He had them delivered as soon as the new season started."
Liao Zhuxin smiled, he was indeed becoming more and more considerate.
It always made her feel like something was unreal.
Ji Huaizhi chose a black halter-neck dress with a ring of fine shimmer and pearls around the collar, which made her collarbone and shoulders look fair and alluring.
The skirt is like a multi-layered cake, presenting a rich sense of layering and flow.
"How is Miss Liao?"
Liao Zhuxin looked at the dress in the mirror and nodded: "This one will do."
The stylist heard this and came over to style her hair.
Just as Ji Huaizhi finished his work and checked his wrist, Liao Zhuxin finished hers as well.
Looking up at her dressed up, he was amazed: "My taste is indeed good."
The stylist gave Liao Zhuxin a perm with big waves, and her hair was casually plastered to her chest, giving her a more rebellious and mature look than her usual well-behaved style.
It also adds a touch of femininity.
"Let's go." Liao Zhuxin said shyly.
Ji Huaizhi wasn't teasing her anymore.
"Qingfeng, will Young Master Ji be coming today?"
Lu Qingfeng nodded, but when he saw a waiter preparing to light Davidoff's cigar, he quickly stopped him: "Wait, smoking is not allowed indoors today. There is a designated smoking area."
A smoker, annoyed to see his cigarette extinguished, asked, "What are you doing?"
"This was ordered by Young Master Ji; he said he doesn't want to smell cigarette smoke lately." Lu Qingfeng also felt embarrassed.
The other person scoffed and said nothing more: "Fine, take me to the smoking area."
"Wenwen, Young Master Ji must have given the order because you hate the smell of smoke. He really cares about you."
Lu Wenwen raised an eyebrow: "He has a conscience, but my dad said he won't agree to us being together until he's successful in his career. After all, his eldest brother is the most capable person in the Ji family."
Unfortunately, her older brother was a workaholic, so she couldn't get close to him and had to settle for this playboy instead.
I'll find an excuse to stay away from him after I get to know his older brother.
Fang Yu had just arrived when he heard these words: "You're overthinking it. It's not Sister Wenwen who can't stand the smell of smoke."
Lu Wenwen frowned: "What? You're the one who can't stand the smell of smoke?"
"Exactly, Young Master Fang knows you and Second Young Master Ji are brothers, but there's no need for you to be jealous of Sister Wenwen, is there?"
Fang Yu's lips twitched: "You guys really know how to come up with ideas."
"Young Master Ji has arrived."
Someone in front said something, and everyone went out to greet them.
Aside from Lu Wenwen, she felt that girls should maintain a higher status. She wasn't like those other women; she had to make these men grovel before her.
The reason why Ji Huaizhi has so much influence in this circle is mainly because of the Ji family and his eldest brother.
There's nothing he can do; he may not be good at it himself, but his family is powerful.
Ji Huaizhi was wearing a black suit today, which was quite different from his usual carefree demeanor.
When the driver opened the back door, everyone saw him like this, as if they were seeing the imposing Ji Yanzhi again.
They really are brothers; they do look somewhat alike.
Ji Huaizhi took Liao Zhuxin's hand and, after getting out of the car, thoughtfully straightened her skirt.
Those standing at the entrance of the clubhouse were all quite astonished. When had they ever seen Ji Huaizhi like this?
"Everyone's watching," Liao Zhuxin said shyly, pursing her lips.
“If I care about you, they will respect you.” Ji Huaizhi spoke frankly: “I am your husband, and they will respect you more if I am considerate of you.”
"Second Brother," Lu Qingfeng greeted him.
Ji Huaizhi was the second oldest child in his family, and everyone called him Second Brother.
However, in this circle of friends, Ji Huaizhi always comes first.
"kindness."
The driver handed the items to Ji Huaizhi, who then passed them on to Lu Qingfeng: "I saw a watch last time and thought it would suit you quite well."
Lu Qingfeng accepted it with both hands, saying that Ji Huaizhi's choices were always excellent: "Second Brother's judgment is naturally good."
"Let's go in and eat, everything's ready." He nodded and smiled at Liao Zhuxin as he gestured for her to go in.
Judging from how Young Master Ji treated her just now, it wasn't the way one would treat a female companion.
Fang Yu also took the initiative to call her "sister-in-law".
He calls himself that so that those around him won't hear it, and they might go up to him and cause trouble later.
Liao Zhuxin responded with a light laugh. This time, when she came to see his friends, she did not receive the same disdainful looks as before. On the contrary, this time they treated her with extra respect.
Of course, there were also expressions of defensiveness, scrutiny, and vigilance.
Her expression remained unchanged; she was now representing Huaizhi's reputation.
She knew she would have to attend many social events in the future, and she couldn't let Huaizhi down.
