Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 897: He’s Married

“Then, why are you so nice to me?” Were you just looking for a free maid to take care of Auntie?”

The computer’s light turned warm, but Chu Lui’s features remained cold. He sat up straight, then took a cigarette from his drawer, and lit it.

“Yixuan, do you think I need you to take care of my mom for free?”

Xia Yixuan froze. Others might have thought that way, but Chu Lui would never. He had already hired two caretakers to take care of his mother round the clock. They could do without Xia Yixuan. If they relied on her, Song Wan might already be dead.

It was not that easy to take care of a vegetable. They had to be turned, wiped, fed, and cleaned up after. All Xia Yixuan did was to massage her, which was not an uncommon skill.

“Then, why?” Xia Yixuan’s lips quivered. Why did he give her free access to the Chu family then? Why was she the only woman around him, why did he let everyone think that they would get married?

“Why not?” Chu Lui puffed out. “You can come and go as you want.”

He admitted that he could be heartless, but it was all because of a woman.

Yes, Xia Yixuan did take care of Song Wan, but Chu Lui did not treat her as a free maid. There were records of the charges made on the company’s bill every year.

It was clear who benefited from the situation.

As for if he would get married? Sorry, that would be impossible.

He turned the ring on his finger gently and laughed coldly. He was married and did not have any intention of getting a divorce. Needless to say, he had no intention of committing polygamy.

Just let that woman lead a good life with his daughter. He would not look for her; neither did he have any interest in doing that.

He smoked the cigarette again and again. There was a deadly attraction to him towards some women.

Xia Yixuan walked out listlessly. She could not help but walk over when she saw Secretary Xiao Chen laughing and chatting with Xia Ruoxin.

“You sl*t!” She gritted her teeth and began yelling at Xia Ruoxin.

“You’re crazy,” Xia Ruoxin replied nonchalantly. She then pointed at her face. “Ms. Xia, hit here.”

Xia Yixuan’s hand wanted to go up and claw out that face. However, the difference in status, her father’s warning, and the slaps she took to her face were warnings.

Some people could not be touched or hit.

The woman before her was one of them.

She bit down on her lips until she could almost taste the blood. Xiao Chen bit on the back of her hand as her eyes darted between the two. She was afraid that the two would get in a fight.

Xia Yixuan took a deep breath and turned. Crack! The heel of her shoe broke. She kicked the shoe off aggressively but returned after a few steps and put them back on.

It was between the broken heeled shoe and going barefoot.

What choice did she have?

Secretary Xiao Chen gave Xia Ruoxin a thumbs-up.

Xia Ruoxin maintained her smile and added a touch of sarcasm to it as the elevator closed its doors.

Oh, in a bad mood because your proposal got rejected?

There are always women like Xia Yixuan in the world, who think that the past could be easily wiped away. Chu Lui hated being deceived, and yet all she offered the man was lies.

Chu Lui would marry anyone. He might marry in the future... to anyone he wanted, but it would never be Xia Yixuan.

Xia Ruoxin glanced at her watch on the table. It was almost time for her to knock off. She would leave after she finished packing up.

“Not leaving yet?” Chu Lui walked over and stood in front of her. He was looking at her, but his eyes seemed like they were looking at something else through her. They were unfocused.

“En, I’m leaving now. Please take care, CEO,” Xia Ruoxin said halfheartedly.

Chu Lui pursed his thin lips and then turned to leave the place. His aura was still cold like a few years, no, even colder than it was back then.

Xia Ruoxin picked up her bag and took the elevator down. At the same time, everyone was beginning to leave the company. There were only the janitors left.

At the door, Xia Ruoxin felt that someone was following her. She curled her lips. The saying that a leopard would not change its spots really was true.

This was Xia Yixuan’s typical mode of operation: get someone to threaten her, have that person rape and kill her, and then toss the body in the wild. The footsteps behind grew closer.

Xia Ruoxin was not panicked at all. She reached into her bag and took something out of it.

The footsteps behind her hastened when she walked into a secluded alley.

Xia Ruoxin stopped because there was no road ahead. No matter which direction she took, the person behind her would definitely block her.

“Run; why aren’t you running?” The creepy voice echoed in the alley. The voice sounded awful, like nails on a chalkboard.

Xia Ruoxin turned, and the man behind her was short but creepy-looking. When he saw Xia Ruoxin’s face, he was stunned. He did not expect to get someone so pretty, not to mention that he was getting paid for this.

He had thought it would be an ugly woman, but she turned out to be a goddess. That face, that body, and that fair skin. She would probably feel as soft as cotton.

He rubbed his hands and swallowed as his member erected.

Xia Ruoxin’s eyes landed on the man’s pants. She curled her lips not fearfully, but coldly.

The man thought that Xia Ruoxin was scared. Usually, women would be screaming or have their legs turn weak when they run into something like that. There was no way this skinny woman could ever get away from him.

The small man got more excited. He even reached his hands into his pants and touched his member. He had a twisted smile on his ugly face.

He lunged forward but screamed out loud in pain.

Xia Ruoxin waved the taser in her hand as the man trembled and screamed, foam coming out of his mouth.

Xia Ruoxin bent over and touched the man’s skin with the taser a few more times. The man screamed as he begged for mercy, but Xia Ruoxin was unmoved.
