didn't want her to be with Fu Jing.Thinking about this, Fu Yan just felt ridiculous and laughable. Following that, her heart felt like a string being stretched tighter and tighter, aching so badly tha...Fu Yan looked at the closed door, her toes gripping her slippers. Forget it, let's figure things out first.

She asked him without turning back, "Is Xiao Xi the person you placed beside me"

Over by the hot spring, Huo Mingzheng's voice rang out without a hint of hesitation: "Yes."

It was him as expected.

Huo Mingzheng knew that Fu Yan was angry.

In fact, Huo Mingzheng's approach to Xiaoxi was not accidental. After Fang Xin finished his interview with Fangxin, Fu Yan instructed Cao Fang to investigate all the members of Fang Xin's project department, including their backgrounds, just in case someone tried to insert spies into the team.

Xiao Xi was a prospective assistant for Fu Yan, from an average family. She also had a chronically ill mother at home, and the monthly medical expenses alone were considerable. Huo Mingzheng asked Cao Fang to get in touch with her and sent her some money.

So Xiao Xi only knew the person behind the scenes was him. Maybe she had seen him occasionally in the news, but because she wasn't familiar with him, she didn't recognize him in the private room at Zui Ren Jian that time.

However, Xiaoxi rarely contacted him. The last time was when Huo Yuan sent lunch to Fu Yan during his hospital stay.

Fu Yan clenched her fingers. The brooch Huo Yuan sent her was shaped like a leaf. Clenching it made it uncomfortable, so she loosened her grip slightly. "Is it fun to monitor me every day"

Huo Mingzheng walked to the pond and, raising his eyes, saw Fu Yan's straight and slender legs hidden under her bathrobe.

Fu Yan walked a step, turned around and looked at him, questioning him with her eyes.

He withdrew his gaze, meeting Fu Yan's eyes. His eyes were clear and honest. "There are quite a few single men in your department. I only asked Xiao Xi to keep an eye on things. If anyone confesses to you, let me know."

"Tell you, and then what"

What do you think Huo Mingzheng's eyes narrowed slightly.

How could he tolerate other men confessing their love to Fu Yan

"You're utterly unreasonable." Fu Yan turned around.

Ho Mingzheng took a step forward, gripping her ankle, "Yan Yan, if you're willing to listen to Huo Yuan finish, why can't you listen to me finish"

This sentence worked after all, Fu Yan stopped. She took a deep breath, only feeling a lump in her chest, neither up nor down, very uncomfortable.

You don't need to compare everything with others.

Huo Mingzheng's voice was low: "Because I care, I can't help but compare."

I can't help but compare myself to others.

Fu Yan slowly exhaled that mouthful of turbid air, but her chest felt a sense of emptiness. Wasn't she the same before

Because I care about Huo Mingzheng, I can't help but compare myself to others. I can't help but compare whether I have a place in his heart.

What do you say

Hu Mingzheng tightened his grip on her ankle. "Don't you want to stay and continue soaking in the hot spring No one else will come here, it's very quiet."

Fu Yan's temples throbbed, she was crazy to stay and listen to Huo Mingzheng explain. As expected, he didn't want to say anything more.

She stamped her feet impatiently, trying to shake off Huo Mingzheng's hand, "If you want to have tea, find my colleagues...... ah—"

However, before Fu Yan could finish her sentence, Huo Mingzheng grabbed her ankle and pulled her back, sending her plunging into the pool.

But because Huo Mingzheng was protecting her, she fell safely into the water. The splashing water formed a curtain of water between her and Huo Mingzheng, broken with a single poke.

What lay before him were Huo Mingzheng's eyes, as deep and dark as ink. The warm yellow light of the hot spring illuminated his brow, his features, every inch exuding a gentle warmth.

Huo Mingzheng clutched her waist, his chest rising and falling. "I can't stand to see any man other than me coveting you. Before, I always said that you were mine, but now, I want to say that I am yours, my lifelong pursuit is to be your only one."icle.This cleaning trolley has a large capacity and can hold lots of things.
