Chapter 215
“Hmph, the beautiful girl is me. Unfortunately, you don’t know.” Le Yao was very happy. Then, she became even more motivated to do the questions and tortured Qian Meiqi, Song Qiaoqiao, and Wang Xia, the three bottom-feeders.
Nangong Jue hadn’t come to make his presence known these days, so Le Yao couldn’t be bothered with him. Anyway, she felt that as long as she stayed away from the male lead, she would definitely be much safer.
At the Earl’s Club.
Nangong Jue leaned against the sofa and took a sip of the red wine in his glass. His posture was as elegant as a prince’s. The waiter who was pouring wine beside him couldn’t help but blush and his heart beat faster.
When Huo Yi entered and saw Nangong Jue like this, his eyes lit up. He walked straight to his side and sat down. “Jue, every time I see you, my eyes light up.” He waved his hand.
The waiter hurriedly left.
Nangong Jue glanced at Huo Yi. “Stay away from me.”
“No.” Huo Yi moved closer. “You know that I’ve liked you for many years, but in the end, you insisted on marrying a woman and tortured yourself until your nerves went weak.” As he spoke, he leaned his head on his shoulder. “I’ll never torture you.”
Nangong Jue pushed him away in disdain. “If you don’t want to be beaten up, stay away from me.”
“Men.” Huo Yi pouted aggrievedly. His light blue eyes were filled with grievance, but he still stayed away because he really couldn’t beat him.
“You called me out so urgently. Tell me, did you find anything?” Nangong Jue looked up at Huo Yi.
“I have to say, your father-in-law is really wise.” Huo Yi poured himself a glass of red wine and swirled it gently.
“Can you stop being sarcastic? If you have something to say, say it.”
“Vulgar.” Huo Yi raised his eyebrows. “Ah Jue, you’re a prince. You have to be elegant...” However, just as he said this, the other party grabbed his neck and he exclaimed, “I’ll talk.”
Only then did Nangong Jue let go. “Are you a masochist? You have to be beaten up every time to feel comfortable, right?”
“If you were an S, I’d be willing to be an M.”
Nangong Jue stood up to leave. He wanted to vomit.
“Alright.” Huo Yi hurriedly pulled Nangong Jue back. “Sit down, sit down. Why are you so impatient? It’s Zhao Yun.” As he spoke, he actually took a peanut and threw it into his mouth.
“Zhao Yun?” Nangong Jue frowned. This name was very unfamiliar to him. “A newcomer?”
“A front desk receptionist who was recruited last year. She’s quite good-looking and has good eloquence.” Huo Yi nodded. “I don’t know why she hooked up with Han Guosheng. After interrogation, it turns out that she didn’t leak the news on purpose. One time, she saw you go to the company and mentioned it to Han Guosheng. She didn’t expect Han Guosheng to immediately think that the company is yours.”
“Hehe.” Nangong Jue smiled. “Han Guosheng doesn’t have great wisdom, but he’s really sly.”
“Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to bewitch Young Lady Cui.” Huo Yi pursed his lips. “By the way, there’s one more thing. The young master of the Zhu family’s condition has worsened. I think it will be difficult for your little wife to keep her kidney...”
