Chen Xi's expression did not change as she replied softly.

Duan Wenyu seemed to have been hit right on the spot, her expression turned cold as she retorted.

"Yeah, I'm not a big shot, but someone was willing to spend money to invite me here from France to be their chief designer."

She did not expect that the Duan Wenzhuo three years later, would be so eloquent.

Duan Wenyu also understood that she would not forgive her for the things she had done to her, so even if she was not Duan Wenzhuo, she would not hide it anymore.

"The taste of designer Chen's clothes …" Duan Wenyu laughed and did not finish.

Chen Xi snorted.

I didn't expect it to be from a previous year. Aiya, I'm sorry, Miss Duan, you are also wearing the old model from last year, but the old model is old, so no matter what, it is still an authentic Chanel. I wonder if Miss Duan is wearing this one? Chen Xi laughed and said, but anyone could understand the meaning behind her words.

Duan Wenzhuo's complexion alternated between green and white.

"I'm really disappointing you. Mine is also real." Duan Wenyu said as she gnashed her teeth.

"Is that so? But I never wear what I wear. " After Chen Xi finished speaking, she arrogantly took off her clothes and casually threw it in the trash can beside her.

Chen Xi suddenly took off her clothes, feeling a little uncomfortable. It was still winter after all, but her current arrogance and self-esteem was no longer allowed to be violated by others.

Especially Duan Wenyu, as long as she stepped on him, he would definitely not let her climb onto his head again.

Just as Duan Wenyu wanted to get angry, she smiled and said.

"See you later, Miss Duan." After Chen Xi finished speaking, she turned around and left. She wanted to return what Duan Wenyu owed her.

"Duan Wenzhuo." Duan Wenyu shouted towards her back.

But Chen Xi did not turn her head back as she clenched her hands under the loose sweater.

She knew that Duan Wenyu was testing her, but she was only Chen Xi right now, and would definitely become her personality and Chen Xi's appearance.

The pink sweater made her even thinner. Even with the air-conditioning on, she was still cold.

In the morning, the CEO was exceptionally busy. When Chen Xi walked over, she attracted their attention.

"Hello, everyone." Chen Xi saw that they were all looking at her.

"Hello, are you Designer Duan?" a sweet-looking girl asked.

Chen Xi took a look, the person in charge of the CEO's office had not changed at all. She had come here three years ago, so she had a slight impression of these familiar yet unfamiliar faces.

"Yes." Chen Xi smiled and nodded.

"You, you are the Madam?" The sweet girl's name was Luo Yi. She remembered that she was a secretary working for the CEO.

"No, you got the wrong person." Chen Xi laughed.

"Really? But she looks so much like Madam. " Luo Yi muttered to herself.

"designer Chen." Suddenly, a calm voice sounded from behind her.

Chen Xi turned her head and saw Secretary Wang wearing a black suit, standing straight behind her.

"Secretary Wang." Chen Xi replied.

"Designer Chen, the CEO is calling you to come in." Secretary Wang said calmly.

Chen Xi looked at him and asked.

"CEO? "Why?"

"I'm not sure. You'll know when you get there."

A bad premonition suddenly emerged in Chen Xi's heart. He definitely did not have any good intentions in finding her.

When Chen Xi passed by Secretary Wang, he only heard him ask, but it also sounded like he was mumbling to himself.

"Are you really not Madame?"

Chen Xi was startled.

"What did you say?"

"No, nothing, just go in. The CEO is waiting for you." Secretary Wang said.

Chen Xi took in a deep breath and then walked toward Tang Hongbo's office with heavy steps.

She had been here a few times before, so she was neither unfamiliar nor familiar with this place.

Now that she stepped in again, she felt that every cell in her body was clamoring to protect herself.

Perhaps because this was his place, she was always uneasy. Even though it was only a few steps away, she felt that it was difficult to move. In her subconscious, she did not seem to see him.

However, she also knew clearly in her heart that since she chose to sign the contract with the Tang Clan, it was inevitable that she would want to meet him.

So she has always been very contradictory, this contradiction continues from France to China, until now, she is still very contradictory.

She heaved a sigh of relief.

"Knock knock …" She raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Come in." A clear and cold voice came from behind the door. It was the voice that belonged solely to him.

She slowed down again and pushed the door open with all her might.

"CEO, you're looking for me." she asked loudly as soon as she entered the room.

Tang Hongbo slowly raised his head from a pile of documents to look at her.

His eyes darkened and his eyelids twitched. Without saying anything, he stood up from his chair with a 'whoosh'.

He immediately walked up to her.

"What are you doing?" Chen Xi was so shocked that she retreated several steps back.

Tang Hongbo pulled her closer. Feeling that her hands were as cold as ice, his expression immediately became serious.

"That's how you dress for work?" Tang Hongbo asked.

Chen Xi flung his hand away with all his might.

"None of your business."

Without saying a word, Tang Hongbo took off the clothes on his body and put them on her.

Chen Xi's resistance attracted Tang Hongbo's even more crude actions. He imprisoned her in his arms and helped her put on his jacket.

"What are you doing?" "Let me go." Chen Xi roared.

But Tang Hongbo turned a deaf ear.

"Are you wearing so little to show off your figure?" Tang Hongbo said coldly.

Chen Xi did not know how to explain this, so she kept quiet.

Tang Hongbo released her and said while looking at him.

"What are you thinking about in such a cold weather? You just got out of the hospital, do you know that?" Tang Hongbo's tone was full of concern and blame.

Chen Xi took a step back, withdrew out of his encirclement, and softly said.

"What has it got to do with you?"

Tang Hongbo's breath tightened. He was the first person who rejected his concern.

Tang Hongbo snorted and turned around to sit down.

"Was the CEO looking for me for this? "Then thank you for the CEO's concern. I'll be leaving first." Chen Xi took the lead and said.

"Halt." Tang Hongbo suddenly said to stop him.

Hearing that, Chen Xi stopped in her tracks.

"Is there anything else, CEO?" Chen Xi's heart was already jumping in her throat, the warmth of his body still remained on her clothes, causing her to feel somewhat hot and dry in an instant.

"Designer Chen, as the chief designer of the Tang family, you're already late on your first day at work. How do you explain this?" Tang Hongbo said in a businesslike tone.

"I …" Chen Xi thought, and really couldn't think of any reason.

He had no choice but to remain silent.

"Designer Chen, did you think that you were late? Are you just going to let it go like that?" Tang Hongbo asked in a questioning tone.

Chen Xi had slandered her, he changed his face too quickly, one moment he was still worried, the next second he was going to settle the score with her.

"Then what do you want? Deducting a bonus? Deducting wages? "Whatever." Chen Xi snorted, looking like she did not care.

Tang Hongbo suddenly lowered his head and laughed, and when he raised his head again, his expression was once again filled with indifference.

"Actually, it's not like I can't let you go, as long as …" Tang Hongbo said as he once again walked in front of her.

"Just what?" Chen Xi asked as she stretched her neck out.

Tang Hongbo suddenly stretched out his index finger, lifted her chin, and leaned close to her ear.

"As long as … Give me a kiss and I'll think about it. I won't bother with you. "

Chen Xi's entire body froze, her face flushed red, and instinctively retreated.

"You, what nonsense are you spouting?" Chen Xi turned and left.

But Tang Hongbo stretched out his arm, trapping her between the door and his body.

She seemed to sense the sound of his breathing.

"CEO, what, what are you doing?" Chen Xi asked with a steady voice.

"What do you think? "Since you are unwilling, let me give you a kiss."

Chen Xi raised her head.

"You, uh …" The words that Chen Xi did not say were stuffed into his mouth.

Chen Xi continuously struggled, but his hands were pressed on the door even as he raised them above his head.

Her long legs pressed down on her knees. She cried out 'I'm not responding' every day, but she cried out so badly that she could only let him kiss her until she couldn't breathe.

After the kiss ended, Tang Hongbo pressed his hand against her forehead.

"This is the punishment for being late."

Chen Xi was angry in her heart, but she could not voice it out loud. She could only look at her with hatred.

Ever since she saw him, her index of being taken advantage of had gone from zero to ten.

she said bitterly.

"So this is how the CEO punishes late employees. Truly, I've been taught a lesson."

Tang Hongbo was startled, she actually helped the little girl fight.

But he was willing.

Tang Hongbo let go of her and looked into her eyes. Her limpid eyes reflected his figure.

Once upon a time, he thought he would never see her again, but it turned out that their fates had not come to an end yet.

"Xi Xi, stop leaving me, okay?" Tang Hongbo suddenly hugged her.

Chen Xi stared blankly. Feeling sad in her heart, she could no longer speak those heartless words from her mouth.

"I am Chen Xi." Chen Xi said indifferently.

"I know, no matter who you are, don't ever leave me again." Tang Hongbo whispered into her ear.

Chen Xi pushed him away forcefully.

"Boss Tang, it's fine. I'll be going out first."

"Wait."

Chen Xi helplessly turned her head.

"What now?"

Tang Hongbo turned around and picked up an invitation from the table, then handed it over to her.

"What is this?" Chen Xi did not pick it up.

"You'll know when you see it." Tang Hongbo said.

Hearing that, Chen Xi opened the invitation card, and what entered her sight was the LOGO that she was familiar with yet also a stranger with.

It was the Duan Clan's anniversary.

Her hands slowly tightened around the invitation card, her joints turning white. She tried her best to hide her emotions.

"What is this?"

Tang Hongbo looked at her seriously.

"You really don't know?"

"Should I know? I grew up in France. The only company I've ever heard of is the Tang Dynasty. Do you think I care about such a small workshop? Chen Xi said as she threw the invitation in her hand onto the ground.
