After Divorce, Hidden Marriage Husband Became Addicted to Me-Chapter 486 - 333: _2
Chapter 486: Chapter 333: _2
Tang Xi called a car and arranged for a few colleagues who had drunk a bit to go back.
One colleague, both flattering and sarcastic, said, "Tang Xi, you don’t even have a car? But with your excellent design this time, you’re definitely going to have a big year-end bonus, and promotion and salary increase are certain. This time, maybe even the vice director position will be yours."
Before Tang Xi could reply, another person said, "Yeah, you’re really good, Director Jiang has just taken office, and you’ve already clung to the big legs. Truly action-oriented, us old colleagues might have to beg you for favors in the future."
"It’s just a pity for Ou Qianqian, I thought the vice director position would be hers this time..."
At this moment, Ou Qianqian came over and snorted with contempt, "You two, looking like this, are you planning to imitate Gao Minjia and Qian Lin? If you want to mock Tang Xi by yourselves, leave me out of it, it’s meaningless."
As she spoke, she glanced at Tang Xi and her tone was much gentler, "My family’s car has come to pick me up, I’m leaving first."
Tang Xi nodded, "See you tomorrow."
Fang Yuan linked arms with Tang Xi and glanced at those two, "You’re right, Director Jiang has just arrived, how can Tang Xi secure a spot and not you two? You keep saying Director Jiang rigs the vote for Tang Xi, why didn’t he rig it for you guys? Admitting you are inferior isn’t shameful, but the way you’re sour now, that’s funny. Oh, our sister Tang Xi invited colleagues for a meal, and only you two needed to pack two servings of supper to take home... Really isn’t that shameful?"
Speaking of which, her gaze fell on the takeout boxes in their hands.
The two’s faces stiffened instantly, then they blushed and stomped their feet in a fit of anger.
They didn’t even wait for the car anymore and just left immediately.
Fang Yuan watched their retreating figures and felt speechless, "Sister Tang Xi, An Xiwen and Chen Yu are really annoying. Coming here to freeload meals and drinks, and in the end, still wanting to pack and take away. Plus, I heard from colleagues that these two often cling to Gao Minjia... endlessly mentioning sister Minjia this, sister Minjia that..."
Tang Xi knew Fang Yuan was expressing indignation on her behalf. At that moment, a car drove by not far away, Tang Xi pulled Fang Yuan towards it, tapping her shoulder, "We are all colleagues, let’s be united and kind, broaden your mind a bit—it’s just two takeaway suppers, I said it’s on me."
She got Fang Yuan into the car, "Send me a message when you get home safely."
Fang Yuan waved at her, "See you tomorrow."
After arranging for all the colleagues to leave, Tang Xi moved her shoulders. This time, holding a bag, Fu Tingzhou was at the top of her call log. Before tapping on it, she hesitated for two seconds, but finally tapped.
The man’s mobile ringtone was one of the built-in music ringtones.
Tang Xi heard it.
She took two steps forward, looked around, a stream of headlights gleamed over, she raised her hand to shield it. Squinting her eyes, then she saw Fu Tingzhou’s car parked about ten meters away.
A black business sedan, a very low-profile model.
The mobile ringtone, in the quiet night, was exceptionally clear.
She jogged over.
Opened the passenger’s side door.
"When did you get here?"
"Ten minutes ago." He raised his hand, naturally fastening her seatbelt.
Tang Xi sharply smelled a hint of women’s perfume in the air.
She glanced at Fu Tingzhou, but she didn’t have any right to ask, not to mention the scent of women’s perfume, even if there was an aura of ambiguity, she had no right to inquire.
In her mind, at this moment, a video of Fu Tingzhou and Ji Qingtan surged through.
Her lip color slowly turned pale.
The corners of his mouth lifted in a mocking curve.
Tang Xi rolled down the car window, hoping to dispel the scent inside the car.
This perfume must be specially blended, a very distinct bay leaf fragrance.
By the time she returned to Longshan Villa, that hint of bay leaf scent in the car had finally dissipated.
But through the rearview mirror, Tang Xi saw something on the back seat, a glint of metallic luster.
In the garage, Fu Tingzhou parked the car.
Tang Xi opened the back seat, and picked up a ring from inside, a ladies’ model, and moreover, a limited edition from last quarter by Fu’s Jewelry.
Apparently, only 3000 sets were released worldwide.
The "Little Earth" model, with a platinum setting, featured a water-blue planet surrounded by fine diamonds.
Fu Tingzhou saw it too, his brow furrowed.
This belonged to Meng Xingyin; the man’s expression turned somewhat ugly as he took the ring from Tang Xi’s hand; he gazed at Tang Xi, noticing that her expression remained usual, devoid of jealousy or sorrow, as though to whom the ring belonged did not concern her, she was not upset.
Tang Xi held her breath, ready to head upstairs.
Fu Tingzhou suddenly gripped her wrist and pressed her against the car.
"Don’t you want to know why?"
"What?"
"Don’t you want to know whose ring this is? Why it ended up in my car, you clearly noticed it just now, picked it up, don’t you feel curious, have no questions?" he clearly saw, in the moment Tang Xi picked up the ring, her expression momentarily stiffened.
"What status do I have to question this issue?"
She took a deep breath, "A lady’s ring, or lipstick, or any other personal item of a woman found in your, Fu Tingzhou’s car, only means that you have been in contact with a lady. You have so many admirers and socialites around you, these are not strange... I should not have discovered this ring, and should not have picked it up; it should be an opportunity for your next encounter with that socialite heiress, which I have now ruined." fгeewebnovёl.com
Fu Tingzhou clenched her shoulders, his voice hoarse and impatient, "So, you’re actually upset, aren’t you? You’re jealous!"
Tang Xi closed her eyes.
She clenched her fists and pushed against his chest, "It’s late, I’m going upstairs."
The next second, Fu Tingzhou leaned down and kissed her lips.
It turned into a deep kiss.
Clamorous.
Crazy.
The ring in his hand fell to the ground as Fu Tingzhou held down Tang Xi, not letting her move at all, a suffocatingly deep kiss that almost left her out of oxygen, then Fu Tingzhou let her go.
Both panting, Tang Xi’s cheeks flushed deeply, her lips also turned an exceptionally bright red because of the deep kiss.
"Yes, I’m jealous, I’m not happy, but what am I to you, what right do I have to be jealous and unhappy? I’m jealous, would you be happy about it? I’m jealous, would you care? Fu Tingzhou, don’t you think, everything’s a mess between us right now? What am I to you... I’m not even your lover..."
