Chapter 35 - The Use of the Mouth

The Wan Feng couple walked the two of them out of the courtyard. Mrs. Wan waved goodbye to Xia Chenxing reluctantly.

The car started, and Xia Chenxing turned on the convertible. Moonlight shone on the road, making it look quiet and beautiful. There were very few cars on the road, and this was relatively remote. She took deep breaths of the cool air, feeling very comfortable. Of course, she would have been in a better mood if there hadn't been a man sitting in the passenger seat. As soon as the man got in the car, he buckled his seat belt, closed his eyes, and said nothing, as if he were hibernating. It was as if he was the boss and she was the driver.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Xia Chenxing noticed the traffic light not far away and smiled when she noticed it. She deliberately increased her speed. The light turned red and she braked. The car slid forward several meters and suddenly stopped. The car was still behind the white line.

Li Ruixu leaned forward suddenly and woke with a start, opening his eyes slowly. He realized that although there were traffic lights, there was not a single car in sight. What the woman had just done was deliberate.

Xia Chenxing saw the man open his eyes and said apologetically, "Oh, I'm really sorry, Mr. Jing. I didn't notice the light change just now. Did I scare you?"

Li Ruixu looked at her deeply and chuckled. "It's fine, as long as you don't drive into the river."

Xia Chenxing did not retort, but she complained in her heart. I'm not a fool. I don't want to die with you!

The red light was very long, lasting about 70 seconds. Xia Chenxing waited anxiously, frowning as he kept looking at the signal light.

At this moment, Li Ruixu suddenly asked, "Miss Xia, your plan was very successful. Not only did you teach the Xia father and daughter a lesson and make them suffer a huge loss, but you also became a shareholder and officially entered the board of directors. In the future, any decisions that Xia Zhiguang wants to make must go through you. Moreover, through this matter, not only did you get back your position, but your reputation became even more resounding than before. You also gained the favor of Mrs. Wan. With her personality, she will definitely help you in the future."

Xia Chenxing sneered. "But does this have anything to do with Mr. Jing?"

Li Ruixu replied flatly, "No."

Xia Chenxing was speechless. This man seemed to like to guess other people's thoughts. He really had nothing better to do! She asked faintly, "Don't tell me Mr. Jing treats me as an enemy?" Since he wanted to snatch meat from the Li family, it was reasonable for him to study the enemy's thoughts.

"No, Miss Xia is not my enemy. Never will be," Li Ruixu said firmly. Of course she was not his enemy. How could he live a good life if he became enemies with his wife?

Although Xia Xingchen did not know what the man wanted to do, she still made her stand clear and said, "Mr. Jing, I don't want to be your enemy either, but if you go against the Li family, then I can only apologize to you."

The moon was cold and Xia Chenxing's voice was firm and stubborn, but Li Ruixu felt that these words were very pleasant to the ears. The corners of his lips curled up as he asked playfully, "Just because you're the young madam of the Li family? But from what I understand, the Li family has been making things difficult for you since you got married back then. Your husband has never shown his face all these years. What have you developed so many feelings for? The air of the Li family? It can't be your husband that you've never met, right?"

Xia Chenxing was speechless. Why was this man so annoying every time he spoke? She really wanted to step on his smelly mouth immediately and let him know that his mouth was used to talk, not to emit harmful gasses! Her protecting the Li family had nothing to do with his husband, whom she had never met. She was doing it for Old Madam Li. But she couldn't say it directly. Otherwise, her husband would lose his pride!

She pretended to be calm and said, "That's right. I'm deeply in love with my husband. I really love him. Soul mates, understand? Even though my husband hasn't woken up yet, he will soon. Then we'll live happily ever after until we're old. So don't even think about the Li family. Otherwise, my husband and I will deal with you together!"

Hearing this, Li Ruixu was stunned. Deep love? Soul mates? Could it be that this scheming little woman in front of him was actually a silly woman who was easily blinded by love? They had never even met, but she was already so infatuated?

While he was thinking, Xia Chenxing had already opened the car door and said with a sly smile, "Since you're an enemy, I won't drive you. Walk home yourself. Goodbye!" With that, she quickly unbuckled the man's seatbelt and pushed him out of the car.
