181 Repair
The teacup shattered with a sound, and blood flowed out from the wound on Zhong Fei’s forehead.
He Miao glanced over coldly at He Wei. “This is what you owe me. Your mother will pay it back for you today.”
He Wei held her mother, who was on the verge of collapsing, in disbelief. The Old Madam had used all her strength. Zhong Fei was still dizzy and could not speak.
He Miao’s actions were so sudden that everyone was stunned on the spot. Only He Wei was the first to react. She looked in the direction He Miao had left with a venomous gaze. Her last words were like a shadow, hovering in her mind.
He Miao said that He Wei owed her, but He Wei could not figure out what exactly she owed her because she had never taken what happened back then to heart.
He Miao wanted revenge for Onion. That time, it sneaked out of the room and was injured so badly. After thinking about it carefully, she knew that He Wei must have been responsible.
According to the servants, she probably would not think twice of using a tool like a cup to hurt Onion. The wound on its back seemed to be caused by someone throwing the cup in a panic.
At the time, there were only He Wei and the maid in the living room. Other than He Wei, He Miao could not think of anyone else who had done it.
The pain of this cup was to be repaid on her mother, so that they would also know the feeling of being abused. Otherwise, they would not know what it meant to respect life.
He Miao called Jing Yan as soon as she got home to tell him that she was safe and thanked him.
In the past, when she was in the He family, the butler had never been close with her. Today, he uncharacteristically protected her several times. He must have been ordered to do so by someone else.
Jing Yan was the only person who could treat her so well and attentively.
Hearing He Miao’s sincere gratitude over the phone, Jing Yan felt a warm current in his heart. “It’s my responsibility to protect you. You must not have eaten yet, right? I’ve asked someone to prepare some food, all of which are your favorite. I’ll have someone send it over to you later.”
“No need, I’ll just eat something.” She had promised to have dinner with Jing Yan that day, but who knew that such a thing would happen? It was only now that He Miao felt a little unbearably hungry.
“I’ve already bought it. If you don’t eat it, I’ll get someone to throw it away.” Jing Yan smiled bitterly as he looked at the time on his watch. If it was not for the fact that it was almost time for him to turn into a dog, he would have had dinner with He Miao.
However, he was already very satisfied to see her eating the food he bought for her happily. He could only think about the rest later.
“Alright, you have to eat well too.” He Miao sighed with regret.
No matter how calm she looked, she could not hide her desire to chat and eat with Jing Yan.
Jing Yan could hear it, and a sweet and sour feeling crossed in his heart.
After a few more patient words, he hung up the phone and walked out of the office. He was going to ask Chen Zhao to send the food over.
“President Jing!” Li Xi had been waiting in the office for an entire day. Finally, she found an opening and was able to talk to Jing Yan alone without Chen Zhao.
Jing Yan looked at her coldly, frowned, and thought for a while. “You’re the daughter of Butler Li?”
“It’s me. You still remember me, President Jing!” Li Xi’s confidence in her ability to win him over increased. She puffed out her chest and blinked at him coquettishly. “I thought President Jing was so forgetful that he didn’t remember the time we played together when we were young.”
Jing Yan frowned slightly, annoyed by her attitude. “Where is Chen Zhao?” he asked.
“He said he had a stomachache and went to the bathroom.” Li Xi said.
He really did not remember having any friendship with her when they were young, but since she was the daughter of Butler Li, she was suitable to run errands for him.
He looked at the thermal container Chen Zhao had placed on the table and said, “Send this for me. I’ll send you the address.”
Li Xi’s coquettish face stiffened, but she immediately smiled at Jing Yan’s dissatisfied look. “Alright, President Jing. I’ll go now.”
Li Xi, who was holding a thermal container, gritted her teeth so hard that she almost broke them. She had always considered herself Jing Yan’s future girlfriend, but she did not expect that she would be asked to send food to that woman today!
However, a glint of light flickered in Li Xi’s eyes. This was a great opportunity. She wanted to see how far this woman and Jing Yan had progressed!
Below He Miao’s house, Li Xi stepped into the old corridor with a disdainful expression. She carefully fanned the dust in front of her in disgust, her heart greatly shocked.
Which CEO did not bring his woman to live in a luxurious mansion? Even if she did not bring her back to his own home, he would at least get a decent house so that she could live comfortably.
She had never expected that a woman who was so close to Jing Yan would live in such a shabby place. On second thought, she suddenly felt happy.
Did this mean that Jing Yan did not care about her at all? He could not even give her a decent house to live in.
