Chapter 524: Chapter 522: What Major Thing Have You Done?
At first, everyone was confused about who Hao Jiayi had poisoned among her co-workers, but then it all became clear.
She had actually poisoned Lawyer Xia.
Tsk, tsk, it’s true that you can know the face but not the heart.
Those who initially felt some compassion for Hao Jiayi, now felt none whatsoever.
They just hoped that this woman wouldn’t drag them down with her eventually.
After all, Song Group offered the best salaries and benefits in the industry.
They wouldn’t sacrifice their jobs just for a colleague who had not been there long.
So, before the ambulance and the police arrived, Hao Jiayi just crouched in a corner, ignored by everyone.
Meanwhile, Xu Zhenzhen, who had taken Wenqing away, drove quickly to her apartment near the company.
Xu Zhenzhen had intended to take Wenqing to the hospital, but he adamantly refused to go.
Without any other options, she had to take him back to her apartment first, and as for the rest, they would have to see how things played out.
She knew Hao Jiayi had feelings for Wenqing, so if she had drugged him, it was likely that type of drug.
Watching the clingy Wenqing, Xu Zhenzhen suddenly wondered if bringing him back to her apartment was really the right decision.
Although she really liked Wenqing and admittedly wanted to have him right then and there, she wouldn’t take advantage of him while his mind was unclear.
Xu Zhenzhen still felt a shiver thinking about how Wenqing had just been holding a piece of ceramic with bloodied hands.
Wenqing had resisted so much just now, he was probably suffering from PTSD regarding such things now, let alone being able to have a loving and normal relationship with her.
Thinking this, Xu Zhenzhen felt she had been too gentle when she hit Hao Jiayi earlier.
She settled Wenqing on the couch in the apartment and began treating his hand.
Wenqing snuggled inside her arms, rubbing here and there, but otherwise did nothing.
Xu Zhenzhen sighed helplessly, having no choice but to hold down his hand to treat it.
"Hiss..."
Due to the disinfectant Xu Zhenzhen poured, Wenqing shivered in pain, and if she hadn’t held on tightly, his hand would have jerked away.
"Don’t move, it won’t hurt after the medicine is applied, can you endure it a bit longer?" Xu Zhenzhen said, and then she blew gently into the palm of Wenqing’s hand.
When she looked up again, she saw Wenqing’s beautiful eyes were now brimming with tears.
Was he crying from the pain?
Unable to help herself, Xu Zhenzhen swallowed, and because the room was so quiet, the sound was very distinct.
Xu Zhenzhen: ...
Wenqing said nothing, just looked at her with a face full of sorrow. Xu Zhenzhen could no longer mind the awkwardness and raised her hand to touch his cheek, "Second Brother, can you be good, please? The medicine will be done soon."
"..."
He remained unmoved, still looking at her with those pitiful eyes.
Xu Zhenzhen felt as if her heart had been pierced by an arrow.
Goodness, wasn’t Wenqing just too adorable when he was confused?
Want to squeeze him!
Usually, Wenqing was always stiff and serious, but now suddenly so muddled, sporting a face full of sorrowful puppy-dog eyes, it really hit Xu Zhenzhen hard.
She hated not being able to pin Wenqing down on the couch and kiss him thoroughly.
Xu Zhenzhen took a deep breath; it took her a while to expel such a dangerous thought from her mind.
"Second Brother, shall I continue applying the medicine?"
She looked a bit uneasy at Xia Wenqing, thinking of how he’d just resisted and almost retracted his hand, not knowing how to soothe him.
Then she heard Xia Wenqing’s slightly nasal voice, "Blow on it, it really hurts."
"!!!"
Good grief, the coquettish tone was almost enough to make her collapse on the spot!
Xu Zhenzhen even felt her hands trembling as she applied the medicine, and she nodded solemnly, "Don’t worry, I will be very gentle, and I’ll blow on it too, okay?"
Xia Wenqing stared at Xu Zhenzhen dumbfounded for a long while, as if to make sure she was telling the truth.
After a moment, he reluctantly nodded.
But it was exactly this look that made Xu Zhenzhen’s heart itch, wanting to tease her adorable boyfriend.
Who would have thought her seriously composed boyfriend could also have such a cute side?
Xu Zhenzhen took a deep breath, her heart full of agitation as she continued applying the medicine to Xia Wenqing.
During the process, whenever she saw Xia Wenqing furrowing his brow, she would immediately blow on it, finally finishing the application.
For the first time, Xu Zhenzhen felt that a man could be so coquettish, yet... she really liked it.
"I feel so terrible..." As soon as Xu Zhenzhen finished wrapping Xia Wenqing’s hand, he hugged her slim waist tightly once again, just like earlier.
His head rested uneasily against her, completely unsure how to rid himself of this uncomfortable feeling.
Xu Zhenzhen, feeling a bit overwhelmed, frowned and sent a message to Lu Zhaozhao on her phone.
"Zhaozhao, everything depends on you at Song Group. If President Song asks, you must protect me!"
Lu Zhaozhao received this message just as she arrived at the President’s office with Song Sinian.
Her eyebrows lifted, and she quickly replied to Xu Zhenzhen, "What big thing did you do?"
But the message went unanswered, like a stone sinking into the ocean.
Lu Zhaozhao’s brow furrowed even more now.
Song Sinian noticed Lu Zhaozhao’s anxiety immediately, stood up, walked over to the sofa, and scooped her into his arms, "What’s wrong?"
His chin resting on her shoulder, he asked in a light tone.
Lu Zhaozhao handed her phone to Song Sinian, "Zhenzhen just sent me a bizarre message, and when I replied just now, there was no response."
Seeing her puzzled expression, Song Sinian chuckled lightly and called Zhao Xi in.
Xu Zhenzhen’s message mentioned him, indicating it was related to Song Group; involving anything about Song Group, Zhao Xi was definitely the right person to consult.
"Sir, what can I do for you?"
Zhao Xi was used to the intimacy between Song Sinian and Lu Zhaozhao by now.
As long as the two of them didn’t lose their minds, he felt he could handle it.
Song Sinian glanced at Zhao Xi and asked indifferently, "What happened with Xu Zhenzhen?"
Zhao Xi was slightly startled, then quickly understood. He pulled out his phone, skimmed through it, and began to report, "This morning after Xu Zhenzhen arrived at the Legal Department, she kicked open Lawyer Xia’s office door, beat up Hao Jiayi, and then left with Lawyer Xia."
He scrolled through his phone again and added, "She also had the other office staff call the police, claiming Hao Jiayi had poisoned someone."
Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes blinked; she just remembered that when they arrived, that ambulance with the loud siren was indeed heading to Song Group.
Suddenly, she snapped back to reality, looking at Zhao Xi with her whole body tense, "Then, did my Second Brother get poisoned?"
