Chapter 268 The Villain Boss Doesn't Need Redemption 19
Yun Qing coaxed absentmindedly, "Okay, okay, break it again, break it again."
Then she sat back down and continued eating her mung bean cake.
Seeing her keep eating, Xu Wei couldn't help but say, "Have you been getting more and more greedy lately?"
Yun Qing immediately retorted, "I didn't!"
She quickly and secretly pinched her waist. She shouldn't have gained weight, right?
As she was pinching, she suddenly felt a gaze follow her hand to her waist.
She turned her head and saw Huo Chen walking towards her.
Yun Qing's gaze lingered on his face for a moment, then she said irritably, "Why are you here?"
Huo Chen said without changing his expression, "Reporting on work, and also picking up the young lady to take her home."
Yun Qing felt that his gaze was too intense without his glasses, making her inexplicably uncomfortable. Then, the unyielding Miss Xu glared back fiercely.
Perhaps Yun Qing's dislike for Huo Chen was too deeply ingrained, so Xu Wei didn't notice the shady dealings between the two.
Huo Chen did give a thorough report on his work, especially regarding the Xie family.
After listening, Xu Wei said slowly, "Just keep it in mind."
This meant that Huo Chen was given free rein to do it.
Xu Wei was never a good-tempered person. He wasn't even dead yet, and the Xie family dared to bully his daughter like this. The fact that he didn't rush up to fight them was already a sign of restraint.
After Huo Chen finished reporting his work, he "casually" picked up the young lady and took her away.
However, the young lady didn't say anything the whole way, and after returning home, she immediately went to cuddle with Xiao Chengzi.
Huo Chen was busy working on his computer, but instead of going to the study, he sat on the sofa in the living room.
Yunqing and Xiaochengzi were having a great time playing together when she suddenly picked it up and said with a smile, "Xiaochengzi is such a good boy, come here and let Mommy give you a kiss."
Huo Chen suddenly coughed twice.
Yun Qing acted as if she hadn't heard, and kissed Xiao Chengzi's fluffy forehead.
Little Orange meowed sweetly, then turned to look at Huo Chen with a smug look in her eyes.
Huo Chen: ...
Yun Qing, carrying Xiao Chengzi, was about to go upstairs when she passed by Huo Chen. Suddenly, she bent down and whispered in his ear, "Want me to kiss you? Beg me!"
Huo Chen watched her departing figure, his eyes darkening. He closed his laptop, placed it on the sofa, and followed her.
The two went upstairs one after the other. Before Yun Qing could even enter her room, he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind. "Young Miss..."
Yun Qing slapped his hand and said fiercely, "What are you doing?"
Huo Chen didn't let go. He lowered his head and nibbled on her ear, whispering, "I want you to bully me a little."
Yun Qing was pleased with what he said. She reached out and poked his arm, then scoffed, "Why aren't you wearing your glasses anymore? Is it so I can bully you?"
Huo Chen hummed in agreement, appearing particularly obedient.
Yun Qing was quite satisfied. "It's not a bad thing to tease you a little."
She suddenly turned around, picked up the little orange and handed it to Huo Chen, who then kissed the little orange directly on the cheek.
Little Orange paused for a moment, then kicked its legs and meowed pitifully, repeatedly pawing at its mouth with its paws in disgust.
Huo Chen, however, expressionlessly reached out and wiped his face.
Yun Qing was amused by their reaction, "Look, even Little Orange dislikes you."
Huo Chen reached out and picked up Xiao Chengzi, put her on the ground, then opened Yun Qing's door, pulled her inside, quickly closed the door, leaving Xiao Chengzi outside.
Little Orange: !!!
It meowed angrily and scratched at the door with its claws, but it was no use at all.
Inside the room, Yun Qing kicked Huo Chen. "What are you doing? Trying to rebel? Do you think you can just barge into my room like that?"
Huo Chen looked down at her, "Then, Miss, would you like to punish me?"
Yun Qing snorted coldly and pushed Huo Chen, who staggered back a step, his back hitting the door.
Yun Qing reached out and grabbed his tie, tilting her head back to bite his lips, when he pulled her into his arms and took the initiative.
"Um..."
Yun Qing angrily reached out and punched him a few times, but instead of knocking him away, she became confused herself, and the hand that was punching his shoulder eventually wrapped around his neck.
The two lingered in the room for an unknown amount of time.
Finally, Yun Qing glared at him, trying to save face, and asked, "Would you dare to rebel again next time?"
Huo Chen obediently lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "I won't do it again."
Yun Qing coldly snorted with great momentum, "If there's a next time, see how I deal with you!"
After she finished speaking, she felt that Huo Chen's gaze was a little strange.
Thinking back to how she had just dealt with him, she felt a little guilty. She quickly opened the door and pushed him out, saying impatiently, "Go away, go away, you're annoying to look at!"
Huo Chen: ...When will Miss be able to use it up without throwing it away?

Xue Ling was furious. She had been going along with Xie Mingxiao's wishes all along, yet he still wouldn't let her leave his villa.
She also noticed that Xie Mingxiao's temper was getting worse and worse.
However, there is one advantage: Xie Mingxiao is spending less and less time at the villa.
Moreover, they either had a gloomy face that made them seem unapproachable, or they looked extremely irritable, as if they were angry about something.
In this way, she no longer needs to worry about Xie Mingxiao going into heat, as he clearly doesn't have that thought for the time being.
However, she has been a little anxious these past two days.
Firstly, there was the matter of her getting a job at Xu's company. Xie Mingxiao had called, but there had been no follow-up.
Secondly, she wanted to go back to the Xu family home.
But Xie Mingxiao is in such a bad mood right now, so she tries to avoid him as much as possible. She hasn't asked about work, and she doesn't know how to tell him about going back to the Xu family.
She was afraid that if she accidentally angered him, the nightmare that happened not long ago would happen again, after all, he was the male lead in a tragic novel.
Of the two things, Xue Ling is actually more concerned about the latter.
Xue Lan's birthday is coming soon. Of course, Xue Ling's purpose in returning to the Xu family is not to celebrate her mother's birthday, but to go back and see Yun Qing make a fool of herself.
At this time, a major event will occur, a plot point she has been eagerly anticipating.
Moreover, if she could return to the Xu family, she would be able to see Huo Chen, and perhaps she wouldn't need to ask Xie Mingxiao about work.
Xue Ling observed for a long time and chose a time when Xie Mingxiao's temper wasn't too bad to talk to him about it.
Xie Mingxiao looked at her for a while, seemingly lost in thought, and then surprisingly nodded and said, "Okay, you can go back now."
Xue Ling was overjoyed to find things went so smoothly.
On Xue Lan's birthday, Xue Ling went to the Xu family in a very good mood.
What she didn't know was that Xue Lan had almost finished packing her things and was preparing to leave the Xu family. When she heard that she was coming back, she thought she could help her move her luggage and then give her a good talking-to.
Xue Lan had already consulted Yun Qing about Xue Ling's return, so Xue Ling's entry into the Xu family was not hindered.
But she felt something was very wrong.
Because the atmosphere at the Xu family's house seemed very relaxed, not at all as heavy as she had imagined.
Xue Ling watched as the housekeeper chased after the cat, shouting, "Little Orange, stop! Those are flowers planted by Young Master Huo."
Her heart sank; something was definitely wrong!
She has been staying at Xie Mingxiao's villa recently and hasn't gone out. She hasn't communicated much with Xie Mingxiao and doesn't know much about the current situation of the Xu family.
However, according to the plot, Xu Wei should have just died.
The Xu family shouldn't be like this.
Could it be... that Xu Wei isn't dead?
No! That's impossible!
She remembered clearly that in the story, the day before the original owner's mother's birthday, Xu Wei discovered Huo Chen's private actions, realized his ambition, and then died on the operating table due to anger and inability to be saved.
Xu Yunqing lost her backer and fell from heaven to hell.
There's no reason for things to be different now!
