Chapter 60 Quarrel
Chapter 60 Quarrel
"Hua An'an, repeat that louder!" Hua Meimei raised her voice.
Hua An'an recalled being forced to call Xiao Hei "sister" at school, and decided to go all out, shouting loudly, "I will never bother Xiao Hei again, I swear! If I ever hit him again, I'll chop myself up!"
Hua An'an reacted like a soldier in training, which made the employees laugh.
"Xiao Hei, are you satisfied with this solution?" Hua Meimei turned to ask Xiao Hei.
He was the biggest victim in this whole affair, dragged down by the feud between her and Lin Cuilan.
"Satisfied, satisfied, thank you, Mr. Hua." Xiao Hei scratched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly.
From the reception desk, Sisi's voice rang out urgently, "Sir, something's come up at the company, please wait a moment."
Everyone looked towards the front desk, where Luo Jiuyu strode in aggressively.
His face was grim, but his eyes flashed with suppressed anger. His lips were taut, forming a resolute and cold line, and the muscles in his cheeks bulged slightly from clenching his teeth, their lines sharp and distinct.
When Hua Meimei saw him, her face darkened, and she said to everyone, "Apologies are over, disperse. Hua An'an, take your friends back to school."
The employees dispersed, but they kept glancing back at Luo Jiuyu, whispering and speculating about the relationship between him and Hua Meimei.
As Hua An'an led her friends outside, she passed by Luo Jiuyu and winked at him with a smile, "Hi, brother-in-law."
Luo Jiuyu glanced at Hua An'an and gave a curt "hmm." He had essentially accepted being called "brother-in-law."
Powerful bosses are always ruthless and cold-blooded. Hua An'an, on the other hand, was very excited; her brother-in-law was so cool.
Everyone had left, and the company's public area suddenly became deserted, with only him and her remaining.
She was angry with him and didn't want to talk to him. "Go away. There's nothing to say between us."
She turned around and went back to her office.
He quickly followed, and just as she was about to close the door, he blocked it with his large hand and squeezed inside.
"What are you doing?" she hissed at him in a low voice.
He went in, turned around, closed the door, and locked it, gradually forcing her back against the wall.
"Hua Meimei, do you dare repeat what you said to me on the phone?" His eyes were slightly red, and he gritted his teeth.
Hua Meimei stubbornly raised her head and looked directly into his eyes. "I have nothing to say. What I said on the phone was just said in anger. Why do you have to take it so seriously?"
Her voice trembled slightly, and her hands clenched unconsciously behind her back, trying to hide her inner turmoil.
The things she said to him on the phone were indeed a bit too much. She didn't have the courage to say them again now.
Luo Jiuyu suddenly reached out and grabbed her shoulders, the force so strong it felt like he wanted to meld her into his body. "Talking in anger? You actually dared to call me a gigolo? Are you that easy? You'd even sleep with a gigolo?"
His eyes were even redder, filled with hurt and resentment. His hair was a little messy, which made him look even more awkward.
Hua Meimei's eyes darted away, and she bit her lip, trying to break free from his hands, but he held on even tighter.
"Whether I'm a promiscuous woman or not is none of your business. Do you even care? You're a womanizer. One Mu Siran wasn't enough, so you had another Mu Sitian. What am I, Hua Meimei? There are probably many more women I don't even know about! In your eyes, I'm nothing more than a tool to kill your loneliness. What's the big deal if I insult you?"
She bit her lip and scolded him in a low voice.
The office wasn't very soundproof, and she was worried that her subordinates would hear her.
Fortunately, Niu Niu and Xiao Hei went live, and many people were busy in the live stream, so no one paid attention to her.
"What nonsense are you spouting? What does this have to do with the Mu sisters? Besides you, what other women do I have?" Luo Jiuyu's voice rose a few decibels, tinged with urgency.
Hua Meimei hated being controlled by him, so she lowered her head and bit his hand, forcing him to let go.
At first, he endured the pain and refused to let go. But her teeth tightened their grip, so he had to release one hand, irritably tugging at his collar, his breathing becoming rapid.
They could have agreed to establish their relationship through discussion; he would have done anything for her as long as she agreed to be with him.
But right now, she is full of resentment towards him.
"Don't cause trouble in my office, it will affect other people's work. You can leave now." Hua Meimei also became agitated, her cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes flashed with anger.
He took a deep breath; this was the first time he had acted so impulsively, completely unable to control his emotions.
Only Hua Meimei has the ability to easily make his emotions surge in a short period of time.
He had secretly loved Mu Siran for so many years, but he had never experienced such a painful moment.
He was misunderstood by her, insulted by her, and pushed away by her; his heart ached terribly.
"Why won't you accept me?" His voice was hoarse when he spoke again. "Is it because of Fei Chenfeng, whom you liked back then?"
Hua Meimei stared at him speechlessly. This scumbag was actually putting on a wronged act?
She laughed angrily, "Luo Jiuyu, what are you doing? Suddenly pretending to be so affectionate with me, what good things do you have that you want to take advantage of?"
He was the one who never wanted a peaceful life from the start; he was the one who flirted with other women; he was the one who always looked down on her. And when she wanted a divorce, he wouldn't let her go.
What is he doing now? Why is he suddenly acting like he likes her? What is he after?
She doesn't understand.
"Are you angry about what I did to you last night?" Luo Jiuyu asked.
He's not a casual man; not just any woman can sleep with him. He'll take responsibility for the women he sleeps with, and he'll make sure the women who sleep with him take responsibility for him.
“…Yes.” She thought for a moment, then nodded.
She wouldn't be angry if Mu Sitian hadn't mentioned that.
“Weren’t you quite into it last night? I thought you liked it too…” His throat bobbed, and he frowned.
"Stop talking." Hua Meimei blushed and her heart pounded again. Thinking about what happened last night, she felt only humiliation.
“Hua Meimei, you asked me on the phone whether I gave Mu Sitian a gift on New Year’s Day, and you mentioned her again just now. What exactly happened?” He grasped the key point.
She wasn't familiar with Mu Sitian, so she wouldn't bring it up suddenly for no reason, especially not with such strong dissatisfaction.
She sneered. How could he ask her so calmly? Could a married man just give such a gift to another woman?
"Don't you know the value of the gift you gave yourself?" she sneered.
"I don't know what gift I sent." The gift was chosen by Amo.
"Are you playing dumb?" Hua Meimei pointed at the trash can. "Look at the gift you gave me. Mousse Sweetie specially brought it over."
