Chapter 27 Live Together
When she recognizes it is Lin Jiao, her face immediately sinks and she looks around and says, “What else do you want to do? If you go on like this, I won’t be so easy on you!”
But instead of seeing Lin Jiao’s helpers, she hears Lin Jiao keep apologizing in a low voice, “I’m sorry, Miss Fu, I shouldn’t have done that to you. It’s my fault. Please forgive me.”
Fu Zhengzheng then notices Lin Jiao’s haggard face, completely contrary to her previous arrogance. Fu Zhengzheng is shocked but still doesn’t believe. “That fire was really set off by you?”
Lin Jiao shakes her head desperately, but after pausing for thought, she nods furiously. “I did that. I am sorry.”
Fu Zhengzheng asks, “Haohao wasn’t hurt badly, and you know that. Do you think you should go so far as to kill me for such a trivial matter? You didn’t take national laws seriously at all. Fortunately, we were quick to react; otherwise, I don’t believe you can have a good life in the second half of your life.”
“I’m sorry. I’m wrong, Miss Fu. You can scold me or hit me as you like. I just beg you to let it pass, or my family will have no place to hide.” Lin Jiao keeps apologizing while crying with a grievance, looking pitifully.
Fu Zhengzheng is confused. “Have no place to hide? Really? I didn’t call the police.”
“It’s…” Lin Jiao looks afraid. She wants to say something but stops.
“Han?” Fu Zhengzheng asks tentatively.
Lin Jiao nods furiously and becomes tearful again. “Miss Fu, I really know that I was wrong. I beg you to forgive me, will you?”
Fu Zhengzheng feels there is something wrong. “Does it work to beg me? Who asked you to beg me?”
“I come to beg you by myself. Miss Fu, only if you forgive me, will Mr. Han stops bothering me. Miss Fu, please forgive me.” Lin Jiao almost kneels down.
Does he care so much about it because he cares about her? Fu Zhengzheng is in a complicated mood, but she immediately shakes her head, warning herself that Han Siqi is not Zhuangzhuang, but only the object of her investigation!
Seeing this, Lin Jiao’s pale face is even paler. “Miss Fu, Miss Fu, I…”
“Forget it.” Fu Zhengzheng shakes her hands and leads Fu Xing away.
“Miss Fu…” Lin Jiao opens her eyes wide.
Fu Zhengzheng nods and says, “Don’t worry, I will let it pass. But be kind in the future.”
Lin Jiao is so happy that she nods her head like chicken pecking rice.
When they come to the gate of kindergarten, Fu Xing asks her mother with puzzlement, “Mommy, she’s going to burn us to death. Why do you forgive her?”
“Xingxing, doesn’t Miss Li often teach you that children who can correct their mistakes are good children? Adults sometimes make mistakes, too. But we should forgive her as long as she admits her mistakes. Besides, you are a man, so you should be more forgiving.”
Fu Xing is puzzled. “But Daddy said that we couldn’t go easy on bad guys.”
Daddy again! Fu Zhengzheng is annoyed and says, “Mommy says we can forgive her! How can a child have so many ‘whys’?”
“Ok, let’s forgive her. Why get angry?” Fu Xing enters the kindergarten while muttering.
After watching him enters the kindergarten, Fu Zhengzheng slowly turns around and goes to the company while keeps thinking about Lin Jiao. She always feels that something is wrong, but she can’t figure it out at once.
When she arrives at the company, she doesn’t see Han Siqi. Then she sinks into thoughts in her chair.
These days, she has quietly inquired about the names of some companies that have business relations with Weihan Group, carefully “cleaned” Han Siqi’s office for several times and also “swept up” his home, but hasn’t found any clue.
Yang Tao also hasn’t found any relationship between Li Xiaomeng and any undesirable groups. That makes Fu Zhengzheng really believe in what he has said.
But she didn’t tell Yang Tao what she had found out, because once she says it, she may have to leave Weihan and B City.
She is reluctant to leave.
She knows she shouldn’t be like this and shouldn’t forget her identity, but she just can’t control herself. Especially when she heard what Lin Jiao said today, she becomes more reluctant to leave.
In fact, her relationship with Han Siqi has become a little subtle these days.
She deliberately keeps some distance from him, and he has changed his previous frivolous attitude, but often looks at her with an inquiring eye—although she does not face him squarely, she can feel it.
The sound of footsteps interrupts Fu Zhengzheng’s thoughts. Looking up, Fu Zhengzheng sees Xu Yan run in like a gust of wind.
“What’s the matter?” She also runs along and sees Xu Yan closing the window before she knows it is raining outside.
“What’s the matter? I know you’re sitting here in a daze.” After closing the window, Xu Yan laughs with some anger and says, “If there is a mess, I will have to clean it up with you.”
Fu Zhengzheng, who is a little embarrassed, holds Xu Yan’s hand and grins. “I know you care about me.”
“Zhengzheng,” Xu Yan looks at the door before whispering, “You chatted with me happily the other day, but you have become silent these days. What happened? I know my ability is limited, but I will definitely help you if I can.”
Fu Zhengzheng immediately covers it up by says smilingly, “Xu Yan, I’m really okay. You are worrying too much. Maybe I am in a bad state because my period is coming.”
“I’ll be relieved if you are really ok.” Xu Yan dares not ask anything more, fearing that she may run into Han Siqi again. Then she rushes back to her work.
Even Xu Yan feels her anomaly, so it seems that her ability to disguise is getting worse and worse. Fu Zhengzheng taps on her head, warning herself.
“By the way, Siqi, Wenhai Building Materials called to urge us to check and accept the goods. What do you think?” Min Zhongxu’s voice always reaches before his footsteps.
Fu Zhengzheng hurries to get up and prepare tea for them.
“Put them aside first. Has the work been arranged?” Han Siqi says as he comes in.
Min Zhongxu is happy to see the tea on the table, and he says, “Little Zhengzheng, you are more and more sensible, I like it.”
Seeing Han Siqi glancing at him, he immediately blinks and says, “I said this on behalf of somebody.”
Hearing this, Fu Zhengzheng unconsciously looks at Han Siqi, exactly meeting his eyes. Her hearts somehow trembles. She looks away at once, pretending to get down to her work.
When Min Zhongxu notices the subtlety of their eyes, he clicks his tongue.
“Ouch! Siqi, do you know that they will smash me to death?” Min Zhongxu protests with grievance while holding the folders thrown by Han Siqi. “Even if they don’t smash me, it is also improper to smash tables, chairs and benches.”
“Today’s tasks.” Han Siqi looks at his laptop screen without looking up.
Min Zhongxu randomly turns over the folders before crying again, “What? So many tasks? For today? You know that I am going to buy clothes with Linglong in the afternoon. Are you going to destroy our dating intentionally?”
“Let her accompany Linglong to go shopping.” Han Siqi lazily looks at Fu Zhengzheng and says.
“Me?” Fu Zhengzheng points at herself and says incredibly, “Let me go shopping at work time?”
“Siqi, you know Linglong’s temper,” Min Zhongxu is so anxious that he can’t sit still.
“Not to let you go shopping, but to let you accompany Linglong to go shopping.” Han Siqi ignores Min Zhongxu’s words.
“They mean the same thing.” Fu Zhengzheng makes an excuse. “I also have a lot of things to do. I don’t think I can finish them before getting off work in the afternoon.”
Min Zhongxu walks quickly to Han Siqi and says smilingly, “Siqi, I can’t influence Fu’s work because of my personal affairs, can I?”
Han Siqi still regards him as the air, and makes an internal call. Then Xu Yan comes in quickly.
Han Siqi points at a pile of papers on Fu Zhengzheng’s desk while saying, “Finish these tasks.”
“Ok.” Xu Yan glances at Fu Zhengzheng as she turns around and then goes out with a faint smile.
Is shopping more important than work? Fu Zhengzheng looks at Han Siqi with puzzlement, unable to understand him. Who does not know that the work system in Weihan is very strict?
Min Zhongxu is very helpless, shrugging his shoulders to Fu Zhengzheng and says, “Thank you, Zhengzheng, my girlfriend is very picky about shopping. I have to go to work, or I won’t be able to accompany her even tomorrow.”
As Min Zhongxu turns around to leave, he smiles at Fu Zhengzheng with some ulterior motives, but Fu Zhengzheng can’t figure it out.
When she looks at Han Siqi, he is busy working on his computer.
Standing beside the desk, Fu Zhengzheng wants to say something but stops as she knows that Han Siqi does not like to be disturbed when he is working.
After hesitating for a moment, she says, “Mr. Han, may I ask you something?”
“Go ahead.”
“Well, Lin Jiao, approached me today.”
Han Siqi stops his finger, slightly tilts his head and says, “Hmm?”
“It’s over, and I don’t want to hold her accountable anymore. Anyway, Fu Xing and I are fine.”
“Not hold her accountable?”
“No.”
Han Siqi stares at her for a while and says, “There is an old saying that kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.”
“There is also an old saying that one more friend is better than one more enemy.”
“Friend?” Han Siqi can’t help sneering, “Did your teacher teach you how to spell ‘friend’?”
Fu Zhengzheng is a little annoyed and she says, “This is my own business, and I do not want others to get involved.”
“Others?” Han Siqi frowns and then smiles faintly, “Since we have ‘lived together’, am I still ‘others’?”
“You!” Fu Zhengzheng doesn’t want to quarrel with him and wants to get out, but is stopped by Han Siqi.
“What did you lose in the office yesterday?”
“What has been lost? Nothing.” Fu Zhengzheng is puzzled, but she is immediately startled because she quietly searched inside and outside the office yesterday, hoping to find out something. But she is sure that she avoided the camera outside and there is definitely no camera in the lounge.
That’s torn it. Did he find out?
