Chapter 390 Tyranny and Despotism
Chapter 390 Tyranny and Despotism
Zhuang Zhoucheng's eyes darkened when he heard this. He snatched the flower from her hand with his big hand, glanced at her calmly, and whispered:
"A man who has no ambition and plays with these things will never achieve great things."
Zhuang Zhoucheng's voice was calm, so Huo Yan didn't notice any signs of anger. He immediately shook his head and said:
"No, I'm not talking about playing with flowers. I'm talking about how thoughtful Third Brother is. Girls like thoughtful and gentle men. Third Brother is also so humorous and witty. Girls should all like humorous, witty, sunny and cheerful men."
Huo Yan said too much, and it is not ruled out that she was talking about herself.
It was because I spoke unconsciously that I spoke my true feelings.
Huo Yan felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he looked up at Zhuang Zhoucheng.
Zhuang Zhoucheng's face looked frighteningly gloomy.
Huo Yan subconsciously moved aside and asked in a low voice:
"Did I say something wrong?"
Because this man is so stingy, she often doesn't understand how she has offended him.
As long as he showed his displeasure, she would have to admit her mistake immediately if she didn't want to be scolded and suffer the consequences.
No matter where the mistake is, admitting it first is the truth.
"I'm sorry, don't be angry, I didn't mean what you said." Huo Yan said in a low voice.
At this moment, Qin Chen and Shi Zhenlin were looking for Zhuang Zhoucheng outside. After asking Zhuang's family, they found out that he was in the lounge at the back.
Qin Chen and Shi Zhenlin walked over here, and only after they carried the Zhuang family members on their backs did they breathe a sigh of relief.
Nothing can be said to be good in this scene of separation between life and death, so the most difficult thing to deal with is funerals.
If it weren't for the face of the banker, none of them would appear in such an occasion.
Shi Zhenlin said:
"Brother, I haven't slept a wink since you called me this morning. It was so late last night, it was really tough."
Qin Chen said helplessly:
"You playboy, when will you change your ways?"
"I was..."
As soon as Shi Zhenlin said this, he ran into the boss head-on.
Zhuang Zhoucheng came out with a sullen face. Shi Zhenlin paused and immediately changed his words and shouted:
"Brother, I'm looking for you."
Shi Zhenlin glanced slightly and saw Huo Yan following behind him like a little tail.
The girl's eyes were red, she bit her lips, and tears were about to fall out of her eyes. She looked so pitiful.
"Sister-in-law, are you sad because of the scene?" Shi Zhenlin asked.
Shi Zhenlin had checked on Huo Yan behind the scenes. He immediately asked someone to check on him the first time he saw him at the resort.
Naturally, she knew that her mother had passed away not long ago, so she said something to the point.
But it was precisely because of these words that Zhuang Zhoucheng became even more concerned.
"Why, aren't those crazy people outside enough for you to care about?" Zhuang Zhoucheng said coldly.
Shi Zhenlin was stunned for a moment, then he put away the smile on his face and said seriously:
"Brother, don't get me wrong... I can't control my mouth and I'm going to make things difficult for you. I, the third brother, apologize to you. I'm sorry, brother. I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
Huo Yan bit her lip, tears hanging on her eyelashes.
Huo Yan sniffed and said nothing, only to hear Zhuang Zhoucheng say coldly:
"Come on, I have something to do. I'll be out for a while. Call me if you have anything else."
After he finished speaking, he glanced sideways at Huo Yan, but the girl immediately lowered her head and stared at her feet.
Zhuang Zhoucheng didn't call her, but just strode out through the side door.
As soon as Zhuang Zhoucheng left, Huo Yan immediately chased after him.
Shi Zhenlin turned sideways to look out, and Qin Chen gave him a push and said:
"It's not your business, stay out of it. Didn't you see that big brother has a very ugly face?"
"...I didn't pay much attention, but I saw my sister-in-law's tears." Shi Zhenlin shrugged and smiled.
Why are you crying in such a short time?
"Please don't mention Huo Yan's affairs. The men in the Zhuang family are very guarded in this regard." Qin Chen reminded.
Shi Zhenlin smiled and said:
"No, second brother, I'm just doing this for the boss's sake. Women, after all, it's just the same. I haven't forgotten the last time we brothers got into a tizzy."
Qin Chen nodded slightly, and the two brothers looked at each other without going further into the topic.
Shi Zhenlin is a smiling tiger. He seems to be loyal to everyone and treats them as if they have been brothers for eight hundred years.
In fact, this is not the case. This person has always been a good person. He is nice to everyone and does not offend anyone.
But in this social circle, the truth is clear in the heart. Everyone knows what kind of person they are. The ruler in their heart can measure it clearly.
Perhaps to be honest, the brothers didn't have a good impression of Huo Yan, especially after the last incident that almost caused a falling out among them.
If he would eagerly call her sister-in-law today, it would really be just to give Zhuang Zhoucheng face.
Huo Yan chased after him, avoided the crowd and ran forward quickly, hugged Zhuang Zhoucheng from behind, and staggered two steps until Zhuang Zhoucheng stopped. Huo Yan didn't stand firm until Zhuang Zhoucheng stopped.
Huo Yan said hurriedly:
"Zhuang Zhoucheng, please don't be like this, okay? You can't just leave me and walk away when you're angry. I won't say these things anymore, okay? Zhuang Zhoucheng, please don't be angry."
Zhuang Zhoucheng's face was gloomy, and he was somewhat helpless. He stretched out his hand to pull Huo Yan from behind and pulled her in front of him, saying seriously:
"Repeat what you said before."
Huo Yan bit her lip. She couldn't say that Zhuang Zhoucheng's behavior at this moment was childish.
This man is very scary when he has a stern face.
Even though I thought he was unreasonable, I still had to do it.
"I like you like this. I just said that other girls might like boys like that. I didn't say I do too. Zhuang Zhoucheng, I like you like this."
Huo Yan said this and leaned closer to him, looking up at him.
Zhuang Zhoucheng raised his palm to her shoulder, controlling the distance between them, and said:
"What am I like?"
"..."
Huo Yan was speechless.
Zhuang Zhoucheng's face turned colder, and Huo Yan quickly spoke:
"Mature, steady, and reserved."
In fact, she felt that other words were more suitable to describe him: domineering, indifferent, and authoritarian!
But she didn't dare to say it, crying——
Zhuang Zhoucheng pulled her along, put his coat on her, straightened her clothes, and said seriously:
"Remember who your man is. If you dare to have any other ambitions, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."
"Yeah." Huo Yan nodded, paused, and then asked in a low voice:
"Then could you please not get angry all of a sudden? I, I'm scared."
