Huo Yeshuo's fists were clenched so tightly they turned purple, and the hairs on his neck stood on end like those of a mad lion that had lost its mind, roaring as if it wanted to tear his head apart.
Seeing this, the people around rushed forward and grabbed Mr. Zhang.
In less than five seconds, only Huo Yeshuo and Lin Zhenzhen remained in the large private room.
Lin Zhenzhen glanced at the heavily closed door, raised her eyes, and had just uttered the name "Huo Yeshuo" when he grabbed her chin and pinned her against the wall.
"You can drink so much? You like drinking with men?"
Lin Zhenzhen opened her mouth, her pearly teeth pressing against her red lips, creating a deep cleavage in her full lips.
"What are you trying to say? Are you trying to lie to me again?"
His fingers rubbed heavily across Lin Zhenzhen's lips, smearing the remaining lipstick and staining the surrounding skin a delicate pink.
"You must be so proud of yourself for seeing how crazy I am about you."
Lin Zhenzhen frowned, staring intently at him, looking somewhat sad.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Huo Yeshuo pinched the corner of her mouth expressionlessly, forcibly pulling it up a little. "Weren't you just smiling happily? Why do you have this long face as soon as you see me?"
Lin Zhenzhen couldn't break free from his grasp, so she could only silently look away, as if responding to his questioning.
Huo Yeshuo took a deep breath, then exhaled even more forcefully, his fingers lifting Lin Zhenzhen's chin higher: "Answer my question."
"Lingzhen, don't play dumb with me, okay?"
Lin Zhenzhen swallowed hard. Her neck and chin were stretched into a straight line, and the most vulnerable part of her body was completely exposed to Huo Yeshuo's gaze, making her feel embarrassed and insecure.
"You have too many questions, I don't know which one I should answer first."
Huo Yeshuo stared at her for a long time, so long that Lin Zhenzhen's whole body stiffened and her neck almost cramped, before he heard a very faint laugh.
"Never mind." Huo Yeshuo lowered his eyelashes slightly, his dark green eyes filled with self-mockery. "You don't need to answer anything, I don't care at all."
Huo Yeshuo released Lin Zhenzhen's chin, lowered his head, and casually straightened his cuffs.
"Yeah, you don't care at all."
Lin Zhenzhen's voice was very low.
“I already know you don’t care, there’s no need to keep emphasizing it and reminding me again and again.”
Huo Yeshuo paused.
He looked up and saw that Lin Zhenzhen's whole body was trembling slightly, and her breathing was rapid and shallow, like a small animal whimpering uncontrollably on the verge of collapse.
Huo Yeshuo felt a sharp, dull pain in his chest.
What did you repeatedly emphasize?
He didn't want to see her or think about her, but what could he do? He was completely infatuated, to the point of madness.
But looking at Lin Zhenzhen's face and smelling the strong smell of alcohol emanating from her, Huo Yeshuo clenched his fist and swallowed back his subconscious rebuttal.
Seeing that he acquiesced, Lin Zhenzhen took a deep breath and temporarily calmed her twitching nose.
"If you don't care, why are you so angry today?" She spoke haltingly.
"As your secretary, haven't I done a good enough job tonight?"
Her eyes held a cautious attempt to please, as if conveying a signal that his answer held immense significance for her.
Huo Yeshuo remained silent for a moment, then a smile appeared on his lips.
Here we go again. You've been using the same trick from beginning to end. Is this how you treat Lu Yangyun too?
Lin Zhenzhen's eyes followed his smile, growing brighter and brighter, like dark clouds gradually dispersing to reveal the twinkling stars in the sky.
"You're overthinking it," Huo Yeshuo said coldly.
"I'm not angry, I just hate it when people act like they know everything. Just do your job and don't interfere in other people's business."
The dark clouds returned, obscuring the last ray of light, and Lin Zhenzhen's eyes returned to their lifeless state.
"Have I caused you any trouble? This project tonight..."
"I've said it before, I don't like people who think they're so clever. You don't need to meddle in my affairs so much. Since you know you're my secretary, just do your job. I never need my own people to drink with me."
Lin Zhenzhen looked at him and replied blankly, "I understand."
-
Having walked this route several times, Huo Yeshuo was already very familiar with it.
However, even though it was still driving at night, the atmosphere inside the car was completely different from before.
"We've arrived." Huo Yeshuo said coldly, as if it were a routine matter, his voice devoid of any warmth.
Lin Zhenzhen looked at him, seemingly wanting to say something, but her phone started vibrating wildly at that moment.
