She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

Chapter 959

I did cry for Zhou Hanzhi for a long time.

So much so that when I opened my eyes at this moment, I felt a swelling and pain around my eyes.

But at this moment, I was held in Zhou Hanzhi's arms, listening to his muffled laughter with pride above my head, and I suddenly felt a little shy.

"No, I didn't." I tried to defend myself, "It was Zeng Zhi who was very worried about you and invited Doctor Sun."

"Really? Then how come such healthy eyes are swollen to the size of apricots?" Zhou Hanzhi's laughter seemed to get louder, with a hint of teasing.

He laughed at me, laughing at me for worrying about him and crying for him until my eyes were swollen.

I couldn't bear it anymore, so I pushed his chest with my palm and struggled to get out of his arms. My tone unconsciously rose: "It has nothing to do with you! I didn't cry for you!"

"Um... cough cough." Zhou Hanzhi was pushed away by me, but it seemed that I had pushed him in the wound. He frowned slightly and started coughing softly.

Blame it on me. My movements were too big and my strength was too strong.

My heart tightened again, and I quickly reached out to help him: "Where did you hit? I'll call the nurse to come and see..."

Before I could finish my words, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his arms with just a slight tug.

The familiar cool breath enveloped me, and Zhou Hanzhi's handsome face enlarged in front of me. His pale lips gently fell on my eyelids, making me feel warm and moist.

This feather-like kiss was extremely gentle, yet full of control.

I heard Zhou Hanzhi's low and gentle voice: "You are so worried about me, but you still refuse to admit it. I have seen the video. You begged Old Man Sun for me and knelt down. Wife, I know that you love me."

"...I didn't!" I gritted my teeth and squeezed out these words, subconsciously denying it, but this time I didn't dare to move too much, for I was afraid of bumping into Zhou Hanzhi's wound again.

But deep down, he was filled with shame and anger. Why did Zeng Zhi, this lackey, take a video and show it to Zhou Hanzhi?

I didn't mean to kneel down to Old Man Sun at all. I was just so devastated and scared that my legs went weak and I couldn't stand steadily.

"Xuxu, silly girl, you can't hide it. You have always cared about me and loved me. I also saw the video of you begging for mercy from your master." Zhou Hanzhi was still smiling, but he hugged me tighter.

He was talking about the first time I met Old Man Sun and asked him to save him.

I gritted my teeth even more. "Zeng Zhi is such a lackey. He likes to take secret photos so much. Why is he the CEO's assistant? He should be an entertainment reporter."

"Well, Zeng Zhi is indeed excellent. He is not only an excellent secretary and assistant, but also an excellent reporter." Zhou Hanzhi smiled even happier. When he lowered his eyes to look at me, his dark eyes were like a vast and quiet sea, containing so much tenderness and affection. "If it weren't for his timely intelligence, I almost thought that I would lose my Xuxu."

My struggling stopped completely as I drowned in this gentle and affectionate sea.

I can't struggle, and I don't want to struggle.

I have to admit that I love Zhou Hanzhi.

Love is a memory, a habit, and an irresistible thing. You want to withdraw from it a thousand times, but fall into it again a thousand and one times.

Perhaps from the beginning to the end, I have never been able to successfully extricate myself.

My body was quietly trapped in Zhou Hanzhi's arms, my arms silently wrapped around him, and I heard my own low voice: "Does it hurt?"

I wanted to ask him, does the wound hurt?

I also want to ask him, has he felt pain during these two years?

I also want to ask him, has it been difficult and painful for him to live in the Zhou family for the past two years, where conflicts were fierce?

"Does Xuxu feel any pain?" Zhou Hanzhi did not answer my question, but asked me a question in return.

There was pity in his dark eyes. His slender fingertips slid along my arm to my wrist, and he lifted the wristband, revealing the hideous and twisted scars inside. He said to himself, "It must be painful."

That's the scar I got when I couldn't control myself during a period of psychological pain.

His other hand slid down my back and then gently covered my lower abdomen. His palm was soft through the thin fabric, but his voice was obscure: "It must be painful."

I knew he was talking about the pain I felt when I gave birth to my daughter.

Zhou Hanzhi feels sorry for me and for all the pain I have endured.

My heart was moved again. It turned out that even after two years of separation, we still had such a tacit understanding. He knew what I wanted to ask, and he also wanted to ask me the same question.

The ward was extremely quiet, with only the rhythmic beeping of the ECG monitor on one side. I slowly stroked the back of Zhou Hanzhi's hand with my fingers, took his hand and gently placed it on my chest, then looked up at him: "This is sweet."

Yes, at this moment, my heart is sweet and warm.

It turns out that it is so easy to dissipate hatred. Zeng Zhi only needs to open his mouth.

Those emotions that had troubled me for so long vanished in an instant.

At this moment, there is only sweetness in my heart, a sweetness that comes after I realize it.

"It doesn't hurt anymore." My eyes and Zhou Hanzhi's were intertwined, from calm to excitement.

Zhou Hanzhi lowered his head and kissed my lips.

It was gentle at first, as if he was holding a delicate and fragile piece of porcelain, the kiss was shallow and careful, but gradually, I felt his eagerness and intensity, the kiss became deeper and deeper, he hugged me tighter, and even his breathing became rapid.

A small flame ignited in my body, and the flame suddenly grew larger and burned with a loud bang.

I forgot where I was and the panic and fear. At this moment, I just wanted to hold him tight and merge with him.

We were getting closer and closer, and Zhou Hanzhi's movements were too big, as if he wanted to rub me into his body.

But my head felt a little dizzy because I gradually felt short of breath and even felt like I was suffocating.

At this moment, the door of the ward was opened and someone cried out.

"Oh, sorry, Mr. Zhou, I didn't mean it. You, you guys first..." It was Zeng Zhi's voice, full of panic and nervousness.

"...Zeng Zhi, don't go." I had already let go of Zhou Hanzhi the moment I heard the noise behind me, and hurriedly called Zeng Zhi.

Zeng Zhi is a very good secretary and assistant. He has a first-class ability to read people's expressions. The reason why he broke into the ward at this point must be that he had something important to tell Zhou Hanzhi.

Zhou Hanzhi's breathing had not yet returned to normal, and he was still panting slightly. His longing gaze left my lips and when he looked at Zeng Zhi, the lust in his eyes faded away: "What's the matter?"

"There's news from Beijing and Hong Kong. Madam Zhou's surgery failed and she has passed away. The second house is in a big commotion. Madam asked when you will return. The family needs you to take charge of the situation." Zeng Zhi reported the situation carefully.

Then she handed my cell phone to me and said, "Sister-in-law, this is your cell phone. It is fully charged."
