Han Siqi! Have you gone mad?

Fu Zhengzheng curses in her mind as she quickly wraps herself in the quilt and jumps out of the bed to pick up her clothes.

However, as soon as she steps on the ground, her legs become weak and she falls down on the ground together with the quilt.

Gosh, what did I do last night? Why do I feel so terrible?

As Fu Zhengzheng lies on the ground to pick up her clothes with frustration, Han Siqi comes in with a paper bag.

Fu Zhengzheng looks nervously behind him, but finds no one.

Seeing Fu Zhengzheng’s awkward look, Han Siqi can’t help laughing. He squats down in front of her and points at the clothes on the ground, laughing, “Do you think those rags can still be worn?”

Fu Zhengzheng puts down the clothes she has picked up embarrassedly.

Indeed, except for the coat, other clothes are torn to shreds.

“Here, it is sent by Linglong.” Han Siqi hands the paper bag to her.

As she opens the bag, she finds there are underwear and shirts! And a big scarf.

Looking at the labels of these clothes, Fu Zhengzheng raises her thumb in her mind. She doesn’t expect that Zhu Linglong can remember the size of her clothes after shopping with her once.

Huh? Has Linglong known it? Is Min Zhongxu also going to know it?

Fu Zhengzheng’s face darkens again. Han Siqi’s eyes, which look down at her, make her even angrier.

“What are you shy about? It will happen sooner or later.” Han Siqi disapproves of her expression.

“Get out!” Fu Zhengzheng shouts.

“This is my room.”

Fu Zhengzheng is speechless, and then she shouts again, “I need to change my clothes.”

“You should say, ‘I need to wear clothes.’” Then Han Siqi bursts out laughing and then goes out while laughing.

Fu Zhengzheng grabs a pillow and throws it to him. As the door slams shut, the pillow hits the door.

Do you think I’d be grateful because you saved me? I will burn the bridge after crossing it. What does “sooner or later” mean? Are you so sure that I am the meat in your bowl so you will eat me sooner or later?

Why? Why?

How could you have succeeded so easily if I hadn’t been trapped by Qiao Keren?

Fu Zhengzheng is hysterical inwardly.

She becomes furious again at the thought of the culprit, Qiao Keren.

But for the concern for Fu Xing, she couldn’t have been so easy to bully?

Fu Zhengzheng picks up the paper bag and goes into the bathroom angrily.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she finds there are some discordant marks on her snow-white skin. She is so ashamed that she quickly put her clothes on and lifts her collar up. But she finds there are still some places that can’t be covered up, and then she turns around anxiously.

As she suddenly thinks of that scarf, she quickly puts the scarf around her neck. Wow, it covers these places nicely. Then she breathes a sigh of relief and walks out of the bathroom.

Looking at the torn clothes, she picks them up and throws them into the garbage can. As she turns to leave, she sees that her mobile phone is still at the bedside.

As soon as she turns it on, she hears a string of calls which are all from Xu Yan. Fu Zhengzheng puts the mobile phone in her pocket, opens the door and leaves a small gap for her to look out. Seeing that there isn’t anyone outside, she gets out quickly.

After running out of the house in one breath, she finds that the house is the one where she came across Ji Muxian last time. But she doesn’t have time to think too much and runs directly to the room that the company booked.

According to the company’s arrangement, they will have half a day off this morning and work in the afternoon.

It is still early now. Probably because they stayed up late last night because of the party, her colleagues are still asleep. Fu Zhengzheng comes to the room that the company has arranged for her and Xu Yan, and knocks on the door.

“Who?” Xu Yan opens the door with drowsiness. As she sees Fu Zhengzheng, she immediately asks, “Where did you go last night? I looked for you in the middle of the night, and I couldn’t get through to you.”

“I… had something to do last night, so I went home. The cell phone was out of power.” Fu Zhengzheng scratches her head while going into the room and then makes up an excuse.

“You can borrow someone else’s mobile phone to call me. I worried about you for a long time.” Xu Yan gets into bed again, seeming not willing to talk to her.

“I come here at last, don’t I? If I hadn’t seen your call, why would I be here? Besides, what’s to worry about? I’m not a kid.” As Fu Zhengzheng says, the scene that she slept with Han Siqi flashes through her mind instantly, and she flushes again.

Xu Yan doesn’t notice that, and she just curls her lips, saying, “What if you drank too much and was taken away by a handsome man? Actually, it was okay to take you away, because you wouldn’t lose anything. The key is that I need to see if he is qualified to be Xingxing’s daddy. It was me who recommended you to attend the annual meeting, so I need to be responsible for Xingxing, right?”

“You dare to laugh at me!” Fu Zhengzheng jumps on the bed and pretends to pinch Xu Yan.

“Ah, ha-ha.” Xu Yan fights back and turns to tickle Fu Zhengzheng.

They play and laugh happily.

Then they get in bed and chat.

Xu Yan points at Fu Zhengzheng, saying, “You ungrateful fellow, I was worried about you, but you blamed me to be verbose. I will not care about you anymore. You had better be captured by a man and be eaten up.”

“Come on! Do you know you are so annoying, Grandma Xu?” Fu Zhengzheng turns around and ignores Xu Yan.

“All right, it is a hard but thankless job. I won’t talk to you. It is still early, and I am going to sleep again. It is so warm here, why do you wear a cotton coat and a scarf? Take them off and sleep with me.”

Fu Zhengzheng is shocked. She struggles to get up and explains in a hurry, “I have a cold, and I can’t infect you. You have a rest here while I will go to have breakfast, and I will bring you breakfast, too.”

Xu Yan doesn’t stop her and gets back to her bed, saying, “I will have to sleep a little longer. You can call me after breakfast.”

Fu Zhengzheng adjusts her clothes and gets out.

When she opens the door, she sees some early-rising colleagues coming from the corridor. She greets them with a smile, succeeding in creating an illusion that she has slept in the room for a night. She becomes more relieved now.

Walking out, she takes two deep breaths. She feels that the air is very fresh today.

She looks around and finds that there are few people here. Thinking of the exploration that was not completed last night, she walks quickly to the old house.

The door of the courtyard is still open, but the window with a gap last night is closed tightly. She looks around but finds that all windows are tightly closed. Therefore, she has to walk disappointedly towards the restaurant.

She wonders who would come to close the window in the middle of the night.

In Han Siqi’s room at Ten-Mile Sunshine Resort.

Ji Muxian is sleeping soundly. A slight sound of opening the door wakes him up, but he is not surprised. He just sits up and leans against a pillow, waiting quietly for someone to come.

“Second brother.” The one who comes in is Han Siqi.

“Hi.” Ji Muxian is not surprised at all. He looks at his brother with inquiring eyes, saying, “Last night…”

Han Siqi is unnatural to see his brother’s eyes. He doesn’t look Ji Muxian in the eye, but only answers tonelessly, “Yes.”

Ji Muxian understands, asking, “What is your relationship with Fu Zhengzheng?”

“It is the kind of relationship you expect.”

Ji Muxian remains silent for a while and continues to ask, “How much do you know about Fu Zhengzheng?”

“Does it matter?”

“It matters a lot.”

Han Siqi looks at Ji Muxian and thinks for a while. Then he says smilingly, “She is smart, stubborn, and sometimes…”

Ji Muxian gets up and interrupts him, “I’m not talking about these. I am talking about her background and experiences.”

“Her resume is in our company. As for Fu Xing, he is just a slight mistake she made when she was ignorant at 18 years old.” Han Siqi understates.

“What else?”

“What else? No more.”

“Don’t you think she…”

Han Siqi suddenly becomes impatient, saying, “I don’t need to know so much about her past. What I care about is the present.”

Ji Muxian is shocked and says, “You can’t give her anything now.”

“I know. I need some time.”

“Has Fu Zhengzheng taken root in your heart?”

“Yes.” Han Siqi answers firmly.

Ji Muxian looks with complicated eyes at his brother who answered in a firm tone. He doesn’t say anything more. After putting on his clothes, he goes out.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Han Siqi turns and lies down slowly on the bed.

In fact, Han Siqi doesn’t understand his second brother. Han Siqi can clearly feel that his second brother cares much about Fu Zhengzheng, but his second brother gave the opportunity to him last night, and today his brother looked so worried.

Fu Zhengzheng’s only purpose of getting close to him is marrying into a rich family.

Han Siqi smiles as he thinks of that. It is a purpose that he can afford. Even if it is true, so what?

Han Siqi rests his head on his arm and closes his eyes. He avoids thinking about Qiao Keren; instead, he is recalling the things that happened between him and Fu Zhengzheng. Then a smile gradually appears on his face.

Fu Zhengzheng and Xu Yan pack things up together. When they return to the company, it is almost twelve o’clock. They go to a restaurant for lunch and go back to the office.

“Zhengzheng, take Xingxing my home for dinner tonight. I will ask Yicheng to come.” Xu Yan says smilingly as they get to the door.

“Will it be the first time that your boyfriend comes to your home?” Fu Zhengzheng jokes.

Xu Yan glares at her, saying, “Humph, how can you talk so much nonsense! Well, by the way, since you have a cold, you have better not go out at night, and I will pick up Xingxing.”

Fu Zhengzheng winks at Xu Yan, saying, “Oh, it is rare for you to bring your boyfriend home. I will overcome the cold!”

“Fu Zhengzheng, you are so annoying! Dare you laugh again?” Xu Yan pretends to pinch her. But as she raises her hand, she immediately puts it down and gently pulls Fu Zhengzheng’s arm, putting on a smiling face. “Hello, Miss Qiao, Manager Min.”

Fu Zhengzheng looks back and sees Qiao Keren and Min Zhongxu come over while laughing and talking, followed by several employees of the company. Then she stands aside to make way for them.

However, Qiao Keren doesn’t go straight to Han Siqi’ office. She looks at Fu Zhengzheng and asks with concern, “Zhengzheng, you rushed out in a hurry last night. Did you not feel well? I went to your room to see you, but you were not there. Where were you?”

Fu Zhengzheng doesn’t expect Qiao Keren to ask such a question. She is stunned and then says, “Well, there was something wrong at home, so I left first.”

“Went home? That’s impossible. I clearly saw that a man held you to a room.”
