Chapter 52
The stars in the sky twinkle.

Zhixia's toes kicked a little painfully.

She looked up at the blue sky, and for the first time felt that she couldn't see through the starry sky.

Like the man's eyes.

The breeze blew past, Zhi Xia shivered.

She was about to go back, but saw that disgusting face.

"Hey, why are you kicking stones here alone? Wasn't it tough just now?"

Li Hechang put his hands in his pockets, looking like a playboy.

He had just come out of the main hall, and happened to meet Zhixia who was alone in the garden, his tone obviously taunting.

Zhi Xia's mouth twitched slightly, and responded in the same tone:

"Young Master Li is really leisurely every day, he's not coming to He's house to hang out, or he's here to taunt me.

I think your reincarnation is wrong, you should be a woman, so that you can gossip, right?gossip. "

Sullenness flashed across Li Hechang's face, and soon disappeared. He stared at Zhixia for two seconds, and suddenly sneered:

"Hehe, Zhixia, oh Zhixia, I just like a stubborn woman like you. Did you quarrel?" He stretched out his hand as he spoke.

Zhixia took a step back to open the distance.

The man withdrew his hand wisely, raised his eyebrows and said frivolously:
"It seems to be right. He Qingting doesn't know how to be sympathetic to women, but I do."

"Does it have something to do with you? Are you too free? Or is it because you have low self-esteem, because you can't compare with He Qingting, so you have to come over and mock me every time?"

Zhi Xia's tone was very light, and his eyes were also indifferent.

Li and Chang's rare silence.

It seemed that it was in his heart.

No matter what point He Qingting was, he was suppressing him.

"Zhixia, there is nothing I can't miss. He Qingting is naturally not an ever-victorious general. If I beat him once, I can win the second time." Li Hechang's eyes were far away, as if recalling.

"What do you mean?" Zhi Xia keenly sensed the deep meaning of this sentence, and became vigilant.

Li Hechang smiled.

Seeing Zhi Xia's vigilant appearance, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

"You are exactly the same as He Qingting. Both are arrogant and arrogant. Sooner or later, there will be retribution. Don't forget, when he became a vegetable..."

Zhi Xia frowned, her expression became more serious, "What's wrong?"

She wanted to hear what Li and Chang had to say.

Li Yongchang pulled away from his own thoughts, and faced Shangzhixia's eagle-like eyes.

His Adam's apple slid up and down, and he turned around.

"God, it's cold, I'll go back first."

The surroundings returned to silence, and Zhixia leaned on the railing beside the back garden thoughtfully.

Li Hechang didn't finish what she said, but she could clearly feel the mystery in those words.

Could it be... Li Hechang is the culprit of this car accident?
No, Zhixia recalled all kinds of things about Li and Chang.

He is not so Ayutthaya.

But this matter has nothing to do with him.

Zhi Xia originally wanted to go upstairs to remind He Qingting, but thinking of his ruthless look just now, she stopped in her tracks again.

Forget it.

The guy doesn't care anyway.

She hugged her arms and rubbed them, then walked back.

At the dinner table, the atmosphere was tense.

"Zhi Xia." Li Lancui held back, but still couldn't hold back, "Qing Ting is weak, and it may take some time for you to take care of him."

Zhi Xia has been eating on her own since serving the table, and she didn't take care of He Qingting at all as usual.

This made Li Lancui unhappy.

Zhi Xia nodded slightly: "I understand, Auntie."

Speaking of which, Zhi Xia gave He Qingting two dishes with chopsticks.

But there was no expression on his face from beginning to end.

And He Qingting didn't pay any attention to the dishes piled up.

Seeing He Qingting not eating, Li Lancui felt distressed.

Looking at the expressionless Zhixia, is this flirting?

She put down the chopsticks, her face was a little cold,

"Zhixia, when we asked you to marry me, we made it very clear. You only need to take care of Qing Ting. You promised well at that time, but now?"

She even had to remind her to pick up a dish, and her face was full of displeasure. The daughter-in-law here is even more tempered than her mother-in-law!

Seeing this, He Kang also put down the bowl, patted the back of Li Lancui's hand, comforting,

"Ma'am, Zhi Xia is Qing Ting's wife, not a servant. Care is needed, so don't be harsh."

Li Lancui slowed down, looking at Zhi Xia with a less serious expression than before.

But when her eyes touched He Qingting's slightly pale face again, she still couldn't help feeling distressed.

Just about to continue reprimanding, He Kang grabbed her sleeve and shook his head.

Li Lancui endured and continued to eat.

The supper ended in eerie silence and embarrassment.

After returning to the room, Zhixia still had that expressionless face.

She had already figured it out, she and He Qingting were not husband and wife, let alone friends.

As He Qingting said, they are just a cooperative employment relationship.

As long as the task is completed, the process...isn't that important.

"What's my next task? To continue the work of He's Group, or to go back to Interstellar to pick up trash?"

It doesn't matter which one it is, it's all the same to her.

He Qingting turned around, his eyes full of stars seemed to be filled with anger at the moment, he said coldly:
"Are you going to keep talking to me like that?"

Zhixia raised her head, her eyes were calm, and her voice was flat:
"Didn't Master He say it himself? We are just an employment relationship, and my task is to complete every word you say. However, since we are a cooperative relationship, it shouldn't be too much for me to ask for some compensation."

He Qingting raised his jaw, and his thin lips parted slightly:
"can."

"That's good," Zhixia nodded, "I don't want much. There are three things in total:

The first is a villa, which should be very large.The second thing is enough money, even if you don't need me anymore after my mission is over, I can live comfortably for the rest of my life.As for the third...

I want to have a chance to get revenge on the Xiang family. "

The atmosphere was silent for two seconds.

He Qingting nodded, "I promise you."

"Next, what should I do?" Zhi Xia deliberately raised her head, so that the grievance in her eyes would go away by herself.

These rewards are great, enough for her to live comfortably for several lifetimes.

If there were no previous misunderstandings, she would be very happy to be this little brother.

but now……

"Let's do He's project report first."

The same voice sounded much colder.

Zhixia nodded mechanically, and sat in front of the computer desk.

He Qingting frowned slightly.

He didn't understand the reason for this sudden estrangement...

Is it just for Junxi?

He had some headaches, and sat on the sofa behind the desk, staring at Zhi Xia's back.

The moment Zhixia raised her head, she saw He Qingting's eyes in the reflection of the glass, and naturally slightly turned the direction of the computer.

Out of sight out of mind.

In less than an hour, Zhixia finished dealing with the report, and after sending it to He Qingting's mailbox, he washed up and went to sleep.

From the beginning to the end, he never said a word to He Qingting.

He Qingting watched her series of smooth movements, and pursed his lips.

This woman... is she really going to draw a line with him?
Night fell.

Zhixia's breathing has long been even, but the man behind him tosses and turns, like a kitten wrapped in a quilt.
