Step aside! My Demon CEO

Although there was a strong capital chain to support it, there had been only expenditure and no income for more than half a year. If this continued, it would be empty and become weak. That's why Lu Tianloong and Old Master Lu were so anxious to get married to the Xia Family.

They needed someone to invest and someone to send money.

Lu Family has many projects under development, which are in the early or middle stage, and are basically unprofitable. At the same time, it is hard to support so many employees.

But after this period of time, perhaps half a year, a year or two, Dingsheng Group will be stronger and more brilliant than before when those projects are completed perfectly.

It was crucial that she could survive this period.

In fact, many companies have similar problems. If they want to be strong and big, they have to let go. If he did it properly, he might not be able to take the long run. Perhaps he was accidentally killed by his competitors.

"Xia Nuan, can't you give us a chance? I'm different from Ji Mingze." Lu Xiujie looked at Xia Nuan affectionately again.

He confessed time and time again, but Xia Nuan kept turning a blind eye.

At this moment, she could not adapt to his sudden seriousness and did not know how to answer.

Indeed, he was different from Ji Mingze. But xia nuan really didn't know how to pretend to be someone else. She was afraid of getting hurt, so she didn't want to accept others' feelings. Because that kind of pain had been tasted once, enough to make her bruised all over, how could she have the courage to try again.

On the dance floor, men and women were frantically twisting their waists and buttocks. There were some women dressed in cold clothes who joked around among the men and teased those men who could not control themselves with frivolous words.

Jingyao, on the other hand, was obviously not proficient in the mix. All she knew was to shake her head to the music. Yu Zi had been protecting her so as not to be attacked by those men.

The mixed air was filled with the smell of tobacco and alcohol, and the music was turned on to the maximum, almost deafening people's ears. The colorful wine, the loud music, the crazy dance steps, and the dim light made jingyao forget the pressure in real life. At this moment, she was releasing her feelings and forgetting everything.

Yu Zi looked at the crazy Jingyao and had a desire to protect her. What made her so disappointed and sad? Her empty eyes were filled with endless loneliness. She was obviously out of place, but she wanted to blend in just to bury herself in the noisy crowd.

Tired of playing, Jingyao rested on her shoulder. Yu Zi gently held her shoulder and kept her in his arms. There was still a lot of trouble around her, but jingyao could not hear anything. She was drunk and had danced for so long that she was so tired that she fell asleep in zi's arms.

Even in such a noisy place, Yu Zi could still feel her even breathing.

Xia Nuan and Lu Xiujie seemed to be silent with each other. Xia Nuan had not responded to him. She was like a turtle, burying herself in that hard shell. Lu Xiujie felt her indifference again. There was a hurt look in her eyes, but Xia Nuan ignored it.

Yu Zi came back half-holding Jingyao. Xia nuan went forward to pick her up. The two of them held Jingyao's hands from left to right. Jingyao was so weak that he collapsed into a ball of mud and leaned his head against Yu Zi's side, as if leaning against his shoulder was especially safe.

"She's drunk. Send her back." Yu zi said.

"Please help me get her to the door. I'll stop another car." Xia Nuan smiled gratefully at yu zi.

"I'll send you back." Lu Xiujie's tone did not allow for rejection and led the way straight ahead.

After getting into Lu Xiujie's car, Xia Nuan wondered if he wanted to send Jingyao home or take her home first. Jingyao was so sad today. It must have something to do with Muchen. She couldn't send jingyao back, so she said to Lu Xiujie, who was driving ahead, "Drive to my place."

Lu Xiujie nodded.

Yu Zi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked back at jingyao from time to time. Although Jingyao was drunk, the wine was still good. At least he didn't go crazy or throw up. He just fell asleep quietly and obediently.

Xia Nuan took care of Jingyao after she got drunk. She was covered in the smell of alcohol. Because she was afraid that she would be cold, xia nuan was thinking of taking off her coat and putting it on jingyao.

But the man in front took off his coat and handed it to Xia Nuan.

"Cover her up. It's easy to catch a cold when you're asleep."

"Thank you."

Xia nuan thanked him and sighed at his thoughtfulness and observation. She couldn't help but feel good about the first time she met Yu Zi.

Lu Xiujie looked at Xia Nuan in the rearview mirror. Along the way, there was no conversation until Xia Nuan was sent downstairs.

"Let's send you up. You can't carry her alone."

Before Xia Nuan could agree, Lu Xiujie had already opened the door and told Yu Zi to help jingyao down. Xia Nuan had no choice but to refuse, and it was very late now. She had to go home quickly, or her mother would be worried.

They didn't leave until they sent Xia Nuan and the others to the door.

Jingyao, who was already drunk, lay down on the sofa. When Lu Fangqin heard the sound, he pushed the wheelchair out of the bedroom.

"Nuan, why are you back so late today? What happened to Jingyao?"

Lu Fangqin just asked calmly without much worry. Xia Nuan was busy with work and often worked late into the night. She always came back late, so she was used to it.

She asked xia nuan to change her job, saying that she didn't want her to work so hard. But she had no idea that Xia Nuan could no longer find a better job in North Coast, so she had to work hard.

Every time, she just smiled and told her mother that she was not tired, and lied to her mother that the place where she worked was a big company. But this season, she was a little busy and had a lot of colleagues working overtime together. She also said that a colleague lived in the neighborhood next door and came back by car at night, so her mother didn't have to worry.

In fact, each time she was alone, she took the subway for more than ten stations and then took the bus home. This neighborhood was old and shabby. It was always dark when she walked in. She was really scared.

But there was no way. There was no internet connection at home, and no work could be brought home. Let's wait for work to settle down before moving closer to the company. That was the only way to plan now.

"Mom, we have a colleague's birthday treat at our company today. I took Jingyao with me. I didn't expect her to get drunk just after two glasses. Muchen was away on a business trip, so I had to take her home first." Xia Nuan smiled and replied to his mother.

Now that she was lying, she didn't even need to type a draft. Most of what she said to her mother every day was fake. Xia Nuan felt a little helpless, but there was no other way. She had to lie because she didn't want her mother to worry about her.

"Make some honey water for jingyao, or else you'll feel uncomfortable getting up tomorrow." Lu Fangqin smiled and ordered. Seeing her daughter get well before and after work, although her heart ached, she could not help.

All she could do was to get her legs better quickly, so when she was alone at home, she would also practice with crutches. Every time she practiced walking, there would be a piercing pain in her feet, but she held it back and believed that day after day, she would definitely recover.

"I see. Mom, you go to bed first. I'll spread out the sofa tonight and sleep with jingyao."

Xia Nuan helped his mother to the bed, covered her with the quilt and left. He gently closed the bedroom door. Looking at jingyao again, she had already fallen asleep. She didn't cry or make a scene. She just frowned and refused to relax.

She took out jingyao's phone and looked at it, but there was no phone call or text message.

It was already 11: 00 in the evening. With mu chen's personality, how could he not have a single phone call from Jingyao that he loved so much?

Xia Nuan walked to the balcony and dialed Muchen's number on jingyao's phone. After a few long "Beeps," the phone finally connected.

Before Xia Nuan could speak, he said, "Baby, I'm still busy here. You go to bed alone."

"Muchen, this is Xia Nuan." Xia Nuan said softly.

The other side immediately replied in surprise, "Nuan?"

"I went to a friend's birthday party with jingyao tonight. She was drunk, so I brought her home first to tell you so that you wouldn't be anxious." Xia Nuan's clear words also revealed the fact that Muchen had not returned home yet.
