Chapter 2: Running Away

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Today was really an unlucky day!

I broke out in cold sweat. How am I supposed to leave the coffee shop? Could it be that I had to walk barefoot?

Luo Xingye revealed a strange smile. I had no doubt that he was thanking God for my punishment.

He looked me up and down, then quickly took off his coat.

“What, what are you doing?”

The smile on his lips deepened and he bent down beside me. At this moment, my body actually rose into the air. In my panic, I hugged his neck.

Luo Xingye’s lips curved slightly as he strode out.

At the entrance, the waiter smiled and opened the glass door of the hall.

This was the first time I observed him up close, and I couldn’t help but sigh at the injustice of the creator. His face seemed to have been carefully sculpted, his facial features exquisite and pleasing to the eye.

“Have you seen enough?” He suddenly looked at me, his dark eyes were bottomless, and there was a playful smile on his lips.

I quickly looked away and realized that we had already left the cafe, “Put me down.”

“I was about to.” He put me down steadily.

There was a parking lot in front of the cafe. He took out a car key and pressed it. A black SUV beeped twice in the distance.

Luo Xingye turned his head and stared at me, “Don’t run around, I’ll drive the car over and send you back.”

Where are you sending me?

Hmph! Is he going to send me to that Lang guy? I’m not going!

I’m sure that this little fox Luo Xingye will definitely sell me off so that he can get the reward from that Lang! I’m not going to be bewitched by his handsome face!

He went to get the car and left me there to wait. Based on his understanding of me, I would definitely maintain my image as a goddess and would never leave with a limp.

However, he was wrong.

I quietly took off my high heels and threw them on the ground. I turned around and ran away without looking back.

I knew the surrounding area the best. Behind the coffee shop was a small alley that extended in all directions. Cars couldn’t drive in at all, so it was very suitable to run there

Luo Xingye finally discovered my trick, but it’s too late.

He ran towards me, and I ran into the alley barefooted. After two turns, I completely lost him.

I’ve been in the gym for a long time, so my running is not bad.

He shouted angrily behind me, ‘stop!’ I was proud of myself. Tsk, who the hell is he? I won’t listen!

The wind whistled in my ears. I shuttled through the small alleys and recalled the scene when Luo Xingye first came to the company a few years ago.

Back then, Lang Xiaojun and I started from scratch and founded Fuxing Corp. At that time, I hadn’t resigned from the company yet. I had to manage the human resources and finance department, and I was so busy every day.

Lang Xiaojun and I had an intense argument over a recruitment issue. He had chosen a young and beautiful girl to be his assistant.

However, when I saw the little girl’s delicate and pretentious expression, I felt a little uneasy and rejected his request. I thought of a reason, “You’re always on business trips. A male assistant can help you drink and protect you.”

Lang Xiaojun was furious. He said that I didn’t trust him and accused me of being too nosy. He even broke a glass cup because of this.

I lowered my head and didn’t say a word. I calmly flipped through the resume in my hands and couldn’t help but feel a headache. Why are they all girls?

Suddenly, someone pushed the door open and entered, “May I ask…”

The man was Luo Xingye. He had an outstanding temperament and handsome facial features. My eyes lit up, “You’re here for the interview, right? Hurry and come in!”

Luo Xingye was stunned for a moment. I asked him a few simple questions and hired him.

He became Lang Xiaojun’s assistant the next day.

In fact, I understand that Lang Xiaojun had no choice but to accept Luo Xingye on the account that I hold the company’s financial power.

Thinking about it now, it was probably from that time that Lang Xiaojun had been disloyal. Because very quickly, he coaxed me into going home and becoming a housewife.

——

I panted heavily as I rang the doorbell of my cousin’s house. She had just sent off a patient who had come to receive treatment.

She was a psychotherapist, and her work studio was located at home.

She would spend two hours a day helping the patients with psychological counseling. The rest of the time could be freely used.

As she was very well-known, her income was not low.

Seeing my sorry state, she was surprised for two seconds. She turned around, took out a pair of rubber slippers from the shoe cabinet, and threw it to me, “Go, take a shower first.”

“What a clean freak!” I mumbled. Then, slipped on her ugly rubber slippers and walked to the bathroom.

My cousin has a slight obsession with cleanliness, and she’s afraid that I’ll dirty the pink rabbit slippers.

After I washed my feet, I rummaged around in front of my cousin’s dressing table and found an imported foot cream. Thinking of my cousin’s disdainful look at my bare feet, I applied it twice with a grim smile and used up half of it.

When I got out of the bathroom, I saw my cousin leisurely drinking tea on the balcony.

She waved at me and poured me a cup of tea, “Xiaxia, you’re just in time. I have to go on a business trip tomorrow. You can stay at home with the child in peace. ”

“Business trip?” I was stunned.

In order to fight for the child’s custody, I hid my son in my cousin’s house. That’s because he knows all the details about my family and friends, but he doesn’t know the address of my cousin’s new home.

She adjusted her glasses and said, “Yes, an academic conference, one week.”

Chuyi was only five years old and had been lively and active since he was young. Since he was born, the nanny and I had been taking care of him. Thinking about how I have to take care of my child alone for a week, my head is about to explode.

“Are you sure you won’t tell aunty about your divorce?” My cousin was worried.

I replied helplessly, “No, my mom didn’t like Lang Xiaojun back then. If she knew that we were going to get a divorce, I don’t know what kind of vicious words she would say to me!”

My cousin shook her head gently and said, “You… sigh!”
