Chapter 43 Calling Husband
"Mr. Lu...it was this woman who scolded me first. She even threw wine at me. I..."
Lu Jie withdrew his gaze and looked down at Duan Xin.
Duan Xin's heart trembled. Her eyes were red and she looked extremely pitiful. "I just wanted to get to know her and make friends, but she knew you were my boyfriend and shamelessly said she wanted to take you away from me."
"What did you say?" Fang Li couldn't believe it and wanted to laugh.
Duan Xin: "I was really angry, so I argued with her. Who knew they would gang up on me and bully me, Mr. Lu..."
Han Xi was wearing a shirt and casual trousers, with his jacket still in his hand.
His eyes were cold since he appeared, and he kept looking at her without saying a word.
Fang Li looked at Han Xi and shook her head gently: "That's not the case."
She didn't know what was wrong. She didn't feel anything about it at first, but the moment he appeared, she felt inexplicably embarrassed.
She was actually a little afraid that he would misunderstand.
Lin Mo behind Han Xi kept winking at her. She took a deep breath and walked towards the door.
Liu Nian in the box murmured in surprise: "Boss Han?"
Wen Yang also saw it. The man opposite was very tall and had an upright posture. He stood out in the crowd like a crane among chickens. His hair was very short with slightly long bangs, and it was neatly styled to reveal most of his smooth forehead. His sharp long eyebrows were slightly raised towards the center of his eyebrows. He looked at Fang Li who was walking towards him with a calm gaze, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.
Wen Yang has been in the entertainment industry for many years and is good at observing people's expressions. He clearly felt that the smiles on the faces of the people at the door disappeared when they saw the so-called Mr. Han.
Not only were their expressions controlled, without the previous gloating, but their gazes also involuntarily avoided. It was obvious that they all wanted to find a chance to leave.
Wen Yang was curious: "Why did Fang Li go there? Does she know your CEO Han?"
Everyone present was watching this scene, either openly or secretly.
Even Duan Xin, who was accusing Lu Jie, gradually fell silent, looking at the two people standing opposite each other in astonishment.
"What she said is not true. I came here to eat with my friends, and she came in out of nowhere and insisted that I stole her boyfriend. You know, I..."
"You what?"
Before Fang Li finished speaking, Lu Jie appeared beside her at some point.
He stretched out his arm and pretended to put it on Fang Li's shoulder.
Fang Li panicked and before her body could react, she felt someone grab her arm and pull her hard. She lost her balance and fell forward.
The whole process happened in an instant. When Fang Li came to her senses, she found herself half lying in Han Xi's arms, one of her arms was tightly held by him, and the other hand was on his shoulder, pulling at his shirt.
The posture was awkward and intimate, and Fang Li subconsciously wanted to break away from his arms, but when she moved her body, she found that Han Xi was holding her very tightly and had no intention of letting her go at all.
She knew that he was angry, and it was obviously not wise to go against him at this time. Lin Mo quietly made a gesture to her, and Fang Li actually understood it.
She bit her lip and stopped moving, lying obediently in his arms like a frightened kitten.
Sure enough, the next moment she felt the man's tense body relax slightly, and the big hand that was pinching her arm also eased up.
Fang Li felt relieved.
It turns out that this man is soft-hearted and doesn't like to be tough. He has to be smoothed over when he's angry.
"If you don't want your hand anymore, I can help you." The man's deep voice entered Fang Li's ears through his chest.
Lu Jie's hand fell empty, but he was not angry.
Hearing this, the corners of his lips raised, revealing a hint of a fake smile: "Why are you reacting so strongly, Mr. Han? What? Did I grab your vitals?"
Han Xi: "Have you had enough of living? Are you eager to die?"
Lu Jie's smile deepened. He glanced at Fang Li in his arms and said provocatively, "How could it be? How could I bear to die when I haven't even found my new love yet?"
Han Xi's body was filled with low pressure. Without saying a word, he let go of Fang Li in his arms and grabbed Lu Jie's collar.
Many of Lu Jie's friends in the crowd suddenly felt as if they were facing a great enemy and became visibly nervous.
Fang Li instinctively grabbed Han Xi's arm: "Don't fight..."
She half-blocked the two of them. Han Xi looked over her head and coldly looked at the person in his hand: "If you touch her again, the Lu family will be extinct."
"Okay, let's give it a try?" Lu Jie remained calm and smiled in a way that made him want a beating.
Han Xi's grip tightened, and soon his face began to turn red.
Someone behind him quickly whispered: "Boss Han, don't..."
Lu Jie's eyes turned cold: "Get lost."
Everyone retreated in fear, but he looked back at Han Xi without fear. The two stared at each other for a few seconds, then he suddenly turned his gaze to Fang Li next to him, and curled his lips lazily, "So, President Han would also risk his life for a woman he loves. Interesting."
His eyes were almost bloodshot, but he still spoke stubbornly.
Fang Li was angry and anxious in her heart, and glared at him fiercely. If this man died one day, she would not blame anyone but himself for his bad mouth.
In Fang Li's impression, Han Xi has always been calm and introverted. There is always no expression on his face, and even his thoughts are hard to see through.
She thought that someone like him who was in a high position at such a young age would not be so impulsive, and would not fight with others in public just because of a few provocations from some people.
But today, she met a different Han Xi.
It turned out that he was not what she saw. It turned out that he could also get angry and furious. Although the cruel side of him was hidden deep in his bones, it was still frightening once it erupted.
Fang Li suddenly realized that he seemed to have never really understood the man in front of him from the beginning to the end.
Judging from the attitude of these prominent young men in the capital towards him, he was obviously not the humble young man she knew.
Fang Li's mind moved slightly. She was afraid that if this continued, Han Xi would make a mistake.
She took a deep breath and looked at him expectantly: "I don't want to stay here anymore, let's go, okay?"
Han Xi didn't move.
Fang Li bit her lip, then suddenly tiptoed close to his ear and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Husband~"
“…”
Feeling warm at the base of his ears, the gloom on Han Xi's face suddenly disappeared, and he suddenly let go.
He turned his head and looked at Fang Li with complicated eyes.
Fang Li's cheeks turned red, and she didn't care about anyone else. She took his hand and left. Han Xi didn't say anything and just followed obediently.
Lu Jie staggered back a few steps, supporting his knees with one hand and pulling his collar with the other. He raised his head with a smile on his face, and looked fiercely at the two people who were leaving together.
The bloody storm that was brewing was quietly resolved.
The person who resolved the situation was a woman they had never met before.
This realization took everyone present a long time to react.
Everyone in the capital knew that the second master of the Han family and the only son of the Lu family had been at odds since childhood. Whenever they met, disaster would happen within a radius of several hundred meters.
Although Mr. Han was unwilling to fight with Mr. Lu most of the time, he could not stand Mr. Lu's bad mouth and always jumped into his minefield.
And that woman just now, not only was Mr. Lu interested in her, but even Mr. Han easily lost control for her.
Han Shiyu, who was in the crowd, clenched her palms tightly, watching the two people leaving, with deep resentment in her eyes.
