Song Shan was happier because she could be alone with Xi Jiuchen.
But at this moment, Xi Jiuchen got out of the driver's seat. She raised her hands and looked at Xi Jiuchen's slender figure chasing Tang Zhixia to the side. Song Shan's eyes flashed with deep hatred. Tang Zhixia was deliberately looking for trouble.
Attract Xi Jiuchen?
Tang Zhixia watched Xi Jiuchen chasing after her, but she ignored him. She walked straight to a suitable location and reached out to stop the passing taxi.
"If you don't sit in a car, why should you stop a taxi?" The man frowned, his handsome face displeased.
"Don't worry about me, just take Song Shan away." Tang Zhixia turned around and replied.
"I'll take her home, and then I'll take you back to the company." Xi Jiuchen said in a low voice, as if to coax her.
"I don't like to sit in the same car with her. Unless you kick her out of the car and only take me, how about it?" Tang Zhixia raised his head and said with a haughty look.
Xi Jiuchen was startled. He had already learned how unreasonable she was. He grabbed her wrist and said, "Tang Zhixia, can you be reasonable?"
Tang Zhixia withdrew her hand in disgust, "I can be reasonable with others, but if I don't want to treat you, don't touch me."
At this moment, the taxi arrived. Tang Zhixia opened the door and got in. Xi Jiuchen frowned in annoyance. This woman really didn't give him any face.
Song Shan saw Tang Zhixia leaving, but she was still full of resentment in her heart. Tang Zhixia was so capable, was she having sex?
When Xi Jiuchen returned to the car, Song Shan found that his handsome face was displeased. She lost no time in feeling aggrieved, "Is it because of me that Zhixia refuses to take this car? If I had known better, I would have taken a taxi."
Xi Jiuchen's eyes softened a little, "Don't think too much, she just has something urgent to do and needs to go back to the company."
Song Shan pretended to sigh, "Zhixia and I will never return to the relationship we had before, and I will never be able to make up for the harm I did to her in this life."
Xi Jiuchen consoled him, "Don't keep mentioning the past."
"Zhi Xia has hated me for five years, and I have blamed myself for five years. Every time I think of her disheveled clothes and bruises all over her body that night, I just...I want to slap myself. Why...why should I let her suffer?"
Such a cruel thing?"
Xi Jiuchen tightened his hand on the steering wheel and tightened it unconsciously. Song Shan's description made him think about whether Tang Zhixia had encountered a big pervert back then.
Song Shan wanted to emphasize how badly Tang Zhixia was hurt back then and how hard she was played by men. In this way, Xi Jiuchen would definitely lose interest in her.
Men all have mysophobia! Can they still be interested in a woman who has been played by another man?
But Song Shan really guessed wrong.
Xi Jiuchen felt more and more sorry for Tang Zhixia, but he didn't dislike her at all. The more he knew about her miserable past, the more he wanted to protect her.
This was also the change in his state of mind during this period. From when his grandma proposed that he marry her, he resisted her whole body, to now, he no longer resists and is even willing to marry her, but he has no choice but to be rejected by this woman.
"Don't mention the past, and you don't have to blame yourself." Xi Jiuchen looked at Song Shan in the pain of self-blame and comforted her.
Song Shan's eyes turned red, and she deliberately wiped her tears with the back of her hand.
Delivered to the villa.
Song Shan looked at Song Jiuchen expectantly, "Jiuchen, do you want to go in and have a cup of tea before leaving?"
"No, the company has a meeting to hold." Xi Jiuchen refused.
"It's just time for a cup of tea, and you don't need to stay too long. I'm always a little lonely here alone."
"I said, if you feel lonely, you can bring your family to live with you." Xi Jiuchen suggested.
"I told them, they can't get used to living there." Song Shan said quickly, how could she let her hated family members enjoy this kind of blessing?
The pain they caused her was enough for her to hate them.
"Then persuade them to come and stay with you." After Xi Jiuchen finished speaking, he glanced at his watch and said, "I have to go."
Song Shan knew she couldn't force him to stay, but looking at the charming handsome face in front of her, she boldly leaned over from her seat, reaching out to hug Xi Jiuchen for a kiss before getting off the car.
But Xi Jiuchen's reaction was also quick. As soon as Song Shan's breath came closer, Xi Jiuchen's big palm held her down. His eyes held an undeniable power, "Get out of the car!"
Song Shan blushed in embarrassment and had to get out of the car.
As she watched Xi Jiuchen leave in the car, her face kept getting hot, thinking to herself, does Xi Jiuchen have no physical needs? Or is there another woman by his side?
She couldn't help but think of the hickey on his neck last time. If it wasn't Tang Zhixia's, it must be someone else's.
In the company.
Tang Zhixia caught up with the meeting as soon as she arrived. Li Mei was preparing for next week's jewelry exhibition. Her and Aiya's works were selected. Li Mei hoped that both of them would win an award and promote the company's brand.
fame.
Aiya and Tang Zhixia also became competitors in this jewelry exhibition. At the meeting, Aiya's eyes were full of confidence that she was bound to win.
Facing Aiya's provocative gaze, Tang Zhixia did not shy away. After all, the prize money for winning this time was very attractive.
Directly east of the low building of Ruibao Pavilion, a skyscraper towering into the sky is the headquarters of the Xi's Empire Group. Like Optimus Prime, it connects the sky and the earth, causing the surrounding buildings to feel a strong
Feeling of oppression.
Xi's Group, a solemn meeting room.
In the chief position, Xi Jiuchen looked like a king.
His handsome and charming face was expressionless today, and his eyes were focused on one place. He looked majestic, but was actually absent-minded.
"Mr. Xi...Mr. Xi?"
The Finance Minister called him twice because he had just finished publishing his proposal and wanted to get his approval.
Xi Jiuchen withdrew his sharp eyes and looked down at the stage with an unfathomable cold light.
"Repeat the question you just asked."
The Minister of Finance frowned, quickly cleared his mind, and said again. This time, Xi Jiuchen was no longer in a daze.
After the meeting was over and he returned to the office, Xi Jiuchen stood in front of the huge luxurious floor-to-ceiling windows and cast his gaze in the direction of the Ruibao Pavilion office building. He couldn't help but feel helpless because he was lost in thought about the woman in the meeting just now.
This is the first time since he took over the group.
He glanced at his watch, turned back to his landline, pressed the intercom and said to Chu Hao, "Get ready, follow me to Ruibao Pavilion for work."
"Okay, Mr. Xi."
Half an hour before getting off work, Tang Zhixia had finished her work for the day and was preparing to pick up her son from school when the time came.
Just then, her landline rang, and she reached out to pick it up, "Hello!"
"Come to my office." A deep magnetic male voice came.
"Is something wrong, Mr. Xi?" Tang Zhixia really didn't want to see him.
"Work matters." After Xi Jiuchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone first.
