Chapter 7 - Nutmeg fainted

The man lifted her chin to force his gaze, gritting his teeth. "Better not have anything to do with you!"

With that, he drove Lin Xiayuan out of the car and drove away.

It was already 9: 30 and there were no vehicles around. Instead, the night was getting colder and colder.

Lin Xia Hua couldn't stop him, so she could only walk. It was almost 12 in the evening when she got home.

The next morning.

Sunlight rushed in through the curtains and crawled on Lin Xia-hua's fair face. There was a touch of scarlet on her gentle face.

"Knock, knock, knock."

Suddenly, a knock on the door broke the silence.

Lin Xia Hua asked the servant what the matter was.

"Madam, the president's information is at home. I heard it's very important so I didn't dare to touch it. Take a look …"

After a moment of silence, Lin Xia Hua said, "I'll send it over now."

After picking up the documents, the servant's gaze was somewhat uneasy. His fingers quivered as he pulled at the corner of his clothes.

Arriving at the Xu Corporation was already a matter of 20 minutes later. Lin Xiashua rarely came to the Xu Corporation, but quite a few people knew of her identity.

But today, what she found strange was that she had received countless gazes along the way from the front desk to the top floor office. These gazes seemed to be filled with curiosity and pity.

There were even some people who wanted to watch a good show.

"You see, she's the CEO's wife. According to the CEO, she won't be sitting for long."

"Tell me what happened."

"It's all because of the one in the CEO's office."

Lin Xiafua rode the elevator all the way to the top floor, unimpeded.

She stood at the door of the CEO's office, took a deep breath, and knocked a few times. There was no response from inside.

She could not help but frown. She tried to twist the handle of the door, but to her surprise, it was opened.

As she pushed open the door, what entered her sight was a scene that she would never forget. On the sofa, Nutmeg was coquettishly staring at the man while her husband was holding his hands above the Nutmeg.

As the information fell from her hands, Lin Xia Hua's heart tightened and her eyes shined as she looked at the two of them.

Seeing her walk in, Linjia pushed the man away and stood up.

"I, we, Xia Hua, this is all a misunderstanding. Please don't be angry." Lin Peaches hurriedly explained. She looked uneasy, and her hands were nowhere to be found.

Hearing this, Lin Xia Hua's gaze moved to the man. His entire body was cold, his tie was crooked, and his suit was wrinkled.

Xu Zimo called out to his secretary in displeasure. He frowned, his voice cold, as if he had been frozen. "What's going on!"

The secretary, seeing this scene outside the door, was hesitating and didn't know how to explain, "This …"

"Or did you just ignore my words?"

The secretary was sweating profusely from fright. He had just walked away on the spur of the moment, and it was indeed his fault that he had not stopped Mrs. Xu. He could not explain.

Lin Xia Hua's heart slightly trembled. A random person? So it turned out that in his heart, he was just a random person!

"Go down first. Don't worry, Boss Xu won't be angry." She told the secretary to go out first.

The secretary left, trembling with fear.

"Since when was my company controlled by you?" It was an irony.

"She's not wrong. It's me, I shouldn't have come." She lowered her eyes and looked up with a faint expression.

"Xia Hua, this is a misunderstanding, can you forgive me?" Lin Peaches' eyes were red. Her facial features hadn't changed much from three years ago. She was as beautiful and exquisite as ever.

"So, what kind of misunderstanding is this?" Lin Xia Hua tilted her head as she asked.

"This, I, Yi Mo!"

"I'm sorry, I've let you down."

Lin Peaches was sobbing. Her delicate and weak body was a bit unstable. It seemed that she would be blown away by the wind in the next second.

The man's body was very cold. He had his back facing Lin Xia Hua, wiping away her tears and coldly said, "You didn't let her down! She is not qualified. "

Hearing this, her heart stopped beating. Her body trembled and her breathing became heavy. Did he think that she was making things difficult for Lin Meiji just now?

"YinMo, don't say it like that. Xia Hua is your wife, don't blame her for saying it like that. If it wasn't for me …" Tears welled up in the corners of Lingcun's eyes as she sobbed in guilt.

Lin Xia's heart slowly sank. She raised her hand to pass the information to the man, but suddenly her arm was pulled back by someone, and she ruthlessly shook it off, causing the information to fall onto the ground.

"F * ck off." The force of the man's hand on her wrist was so heavy it hurt.

"Alright, I'll do as you wish." Lin Xia Hua said in a low and deep voice. His voice was a little hoarse and his eyes were dull.

Without any hesitation, he turned around and left.

It was already afternoon when she returned home in a daze.

He went upstairs without eating, and when he woke up, the door to the villa had been pushed open.

Her heart tightened as she raised her gaze to meet with the man's deep and serene eyes. She tilted her head slightly. She felt like she was a ridiculous third party that had stepped into their lives.

"Nutmeg said that she wants to see you, so it's best that you don't act like I'm the owner. After all, you know better than me, if not for what happened that year, who would be the owner now?"

He seemed to be saying it blandly, but in reality, he was warning Lin Xiaxia not to think of using those trashy tricks to deal with Nutmeg.

Lin Xiashua, who was on the stairs, tightly dug his nails into the armrest to prevent her emotions from spiraling out of control.

She opened her mouth slightly. "I'm honored that she came to see me personally, but if the outside world finds out that your sister was your first love and brings her home at night, it won't have much of an impact."

She slowly turned around and entered the room without looking at their faces.

Xu Yimo's expression was complex. His gaze was like a knife as he looked straight at her back, the space between his eyebrows slightly twisting.

Suddenly, someone tugged at his sleeve. He bowed his head and said apologetically, "I want to go up and see the summer flowers."

After thinking for a moment, the man said, "You treat her so well, is it worth it?"

"She's my sister." Lin Peaches' eyes were filled with regret and helplessness.

She went upstairs, knocked on the door, pushed it open and entered. Nutmeg closed the door but did not completely close it.

Lin Xia Hua came out from the bathroom and saw her red eyes grabbing his hand, saying emotionally, "Xia Hua, give Yi Mo to me, I can give you anything you want, I only want Yi Mo to be by myself, you know he doesn't have any feelings for you, if that's the case, why don't you give him to me, I've always loved him."

Hearing this, her heart sank. These words were like a knife that pierced the heart. Lin Xia Hua brushed her hand away slightly and walked around her to the other side.

"Back then, it was you who insisted on going abroad. You knew full well that I wouldn't fight with you for it." Lin Xia Hua reminded her in an indifferent tone. At the end, her voice was actually a little hoarse.

Upon hearing this, Lin Peaches' face froze for a moment.

The next second, a pair of white catkins grabbed Lin Xia Hua's hand again. This time, the strength was not weak, because Lin Doupeng had grabbed her wrist and slashed her face with her nails.

Lin Xia Hua's face was in pain, and she tried to shake it off, but her weak body seemed to be unable to bear the pain and fell straight down.

"Thud."

Lin Peaches' head hit a corner of the table. Her head tilted and she had already fainted.

This accident caused Lin Xia Hua to be a little shocked. She did not think much about it and was just about to walk out to call someone when a figure quickly rushed in.
