MTL - I Married the Second Male Lead After Reincarnating-Chapter 26 This is the life you want?
Xia Zimu went to several wine shops a day.
She has a good capacity for alcohol, but she can't help but drink like this. After sending off the general manager of a company with a smile, she rushed into the bathroom and vomited faintly.
Tears almost came out, but she suppressed them abruptly.
She washed briefly, touched up her makeup in the mirror, and then walked out of the bathroom.
Just now she vomited hard, her legs were a little weak, and she leaned against the wall of the corridor to relax.
"I thought you could live a better life without the Gu family, but this is the life you want?"
There was a harsh taunt from the man above his head.
Xia Zimu raised his head and saw the person coming. His originally bent spine straightened immediately, making him invulnerable.
A bright and flamboyant smile bloomed on her delicately made-up face, "Although it's a bit bitter, she still looks like a human being. It's much better than being a cow and a horse in some people's house and being unwelcome."
Gu Huaixi's face sank.
Xia Sen came out from behind Gu Huaixi, put on the airs of an elder, and scolded: "Mu Mu! Why are you talking to Young Master Gu!"
After he finished speaking, he smiled flatteringly at Gu Huaixi: "Mr. Gu, Mumu is drunk and talks nonsense, don't take it to heart."
Xia Sen's flattery deepened the sarcasm in Gu Huaixi's eyes, as if he was laughing at Xia Zimu's hard work, but he couldn't even get the approval of his relatives.
He looked at Xia Zimu with a half-smile, and said to Xia Sen: "No. Ms. Xia must have made an unintentional mistake."
Xia Sen: "Young Master Gu, look, about investment..."
"Sorry, I can't help you with this matter." Gu Huaixi looked away from Xia Zimu, "Miss Xia insisted on divorcing me back then, so she should have been prepared to accept all the consequences.
"I invested in Xia's family before, just to help my in-laws. Now that she and I have divorced, it is natural to use the money on projects with more room for development."
Gu Huaixi raised his legs to leave, Xia Sen glared at Xia Zimu, and quickly followed, the smile on his face was even flatter than before.
Xia Sen's ingratiating appearance made Xia Zimu feel like he had slapped him hard.
Xia Sen is quite prestigious in the Xia family, and always presents himself as a mature and stable elder.
In front of Gu Huaixi, he can only be a dog wagging his tail and begging for mercy.
This person is her cousin.
Xia Zimu's fingers slowly curled into the palm of his hand, and soon let go.
She doesn't have time to be sad about such little things.
How to attract investment is the question she should think about.
Both Xia Zimu and He Tian drank a lot of wine, He Tian called a substitute driver and left first.
Xia Zimu leaned against the car, waiting for the driver on the side of the road.
There was a low noise from the flower bed not far away, which seemed to be mixed with the voice of a woman calling for help.
Xia Zimu frowned slightly, and went to check the situation.
Behind a short bush half a person tall, a few slightly drunk men cornered a young woman, cursing and swearing.
A man grabbed the woman's left hand, lifted her, and cursed viciously: "Stinky bitch, how dare you throw me!"
The woman lowered her head in fear, her long black hair covered her entire face, and she couldn't see her face clearly, "Because you touched me just now..."
"You are ugly, you are so ugly, if a man is willing to touch you, shouldn't you burn incense? I just touched you when I was drunk. If it were normal, who would touch you?"
The man's eyes wandered around the woman, and he smiled obscenely, "The face is ugly, but the figure is good, let me..."
"Several gentlemen, forcing a woman is not what a gentleman does."
Xia Zimu walked out from the side, and several men looked back at him.
The man in the middle let go of the woman, and said to Xia Zimu angrily, "Oh, here comes a beauty. What's the matter, you want to be happy when you see my brothers hurting this ugly monster?"
The man said, slowly approaching Xia Zimu.
Xia Zimu didn't look flustered, and calmly said: "I just called the police. If you are sure that you can finish the matter before the police come, you can try."
Hearing this, the man stopped, and most of the wine was sober in an instant.
Someone recognized Xia Zimu, "Qian Shao, this woman seems to be Gu Huaixi's ex-wife. Although she is divorced, she used to be Gu Huaixi's woman. If we touch her..."
The man was persuaded by his companion's words, and he didn't go forward any more. He only spat at Xia Zimu, "I don't care for women who have been touched by other men!"
Xia Zimu pursed her red lips, and said in a cold voice, "You **** who bullies the weak and fears the hard, what excuses are you looking for?"
The man was irritated by her words, but still worried about her calling the police, and left with his companions.
The woman in the corner came over and murmured, "Thank you..."
The woman still lowered her head, Xia Zimu lowered her eyes, and through her black hair, she could see the large scars on her face.
Hideous scars covered most of her face, which was a bit frightening.
Anyone else would definitely be shocked, but Xia Zimu just watched her calmly, "Where is home? I'll take you home."
"No, no, I'll go back by myself..."
"Those men may not have gone far."
Hearing this, the woman trembled all over, and remained silent for a few seconds, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
Xia Zimu led the woman to his car, "What's your name?"
"Han Xi."
Xia Zimu's valet driver has arrived. She asked Han Xi's address and sent him there.
The car stopped in an old neighborhood, and Han Xi was about to get off.
On the first floor of the residential building, several men seemed to be walking casually, but their eyes seemed to be looking for something.
When Han Xi saw those people, he stopped pushing the car door for an instant.
Xia Zimu also noticed the people outside, and seeing her stiff body, asked, "What's wrong?"
"Can you please take me back to the hotel?"
"Do you have accommodation at the hotel?"
“… there is.”
She works part-time there, and if you ask the manager, she should be able to spend the night in the stairwell.
Xia Zimu did not send Han Xi back to the hotel, but took her back to his residence.
"Miss Xia, I'll just go back to the hotel..."
Xia Zimu said incredulously, "Follow me upstairs."
Han Xi pursed his lips and thanked again.
She has said thank you many times tonight.
Xia Zimu lent Han Xi a set of pajamas that he hadn't worn, and Han Xi carried the pajamas into the bathroom.
Xia Zimu tidied up the room briefly, and noticed a diamond ring on the table.
belonged to Han Xi.
She remembered seeing this ring in a magazine not long ago.
The famous designer Echo's masterpiece from Country Y was bought by a rich businessman in Yucheng for tens of millions two years ago, and then disappeared.
This ring should be real.
It was given to Han Xi by Qin Mutian.
She once heard someone mention that Qin Mutian, the eldest son of the Qin family, pampered a beautiful canary.
He used some tricks to trap the canary by his side forever.
The canary hated him to the bone, self-destructed, and his whereabouts have been unknown since then.
The youngest of the Qin family didn't know that she was disfigured, and naturally he didn't know that there was no more of his beloved canary in the world, only a kiwi with its wings broken.
Just outside the hotel, she recognized Han Xi at a glance—the once famous and talented painter, now the hotel cleaner.
She will save Han Xi, half out of pity, half out of purpose.
According to the trajectory of the previous life, if there is no accident, at most one year later, Han Xi will return to her biological parents.
The identities of Han Xi's biological parents are not simple, but for Xia Zimu, they will be a great help.
Xia Zimu woke up the next day, and Han Xi had already left.
There was a prepared breakfast on the table, and the pajamas she lent to Han Xi were neatly folded on the table.
Xia Zimu sat down at the dining table, his eyes were soft.
is a polite girl.
