A few servants came over with clean towels and water. "Miss An, you should take a rest. Leave the trimming of the garden to us."
Angel's cold eyes swept over the servant, and suddenly, she threw a cup of hot tea into the servant's face.
Ah!
The servant screamed miserably as he covered his face.
Angel snorted, "The person who said that I was ignored by your crown prince was you, right? "And you guys …"
The moment her gaze fell upon him, the other servants' bodies started to tremble. In the outside world, only Angel knew how beautiful she was, and only her servants understood her.
"Next time, let me hear you guys blabbering and blabbering, you guys will suffer!" Angel smashed the cup on the floor, smiled, and said, "Clean it up, don't sweep it. Kneel and pick it up with your hands."
"Yes …"
Several servants immediately knelt and trembled.
"What are you standing there for? "Still not picking it up!" Angel sneered, "People in this world are made up of high and low, just like how I was born to be looked up to by all of you, and all of you are only servants of the face, daring to go over your status and discuss the matters of your masters. This is the result of people like you, hmph!"
"Yes, we were wrong."
Several of the servants immediately picked up the sharp pieces with trembling hands.
Angel looked at the blood on their hands and left the garden.

S City Economic Development Center, Di Cheng Group Building.
After An Xia got out of the car, the security guard who had stopped her a few months ago respectfully greeted her, "Greetings, Miss An. CEO Lu is coincidentally at the company now. Please come inside."
An Xia couldn't help but think back to when she first married Lu Bai. She had brought a lunchbox over to Di Cheng Group to give Lu Bai his lunch, as well as to investigate if he had any children outside … In the end, she was stopped by a security guard outside. It was Secretary Qin who came down to bring her up.
Now that everything had changed, these people were extremely polite to her.
"En, thank you. I'll go in myself."
With the polite greetings of the front desk girl, Anxia directly walked toward the elevator.
Outside the CEO's office, Miss Secretary was waiting.
"Miss An is here." Miss Wen nodded professionally, "Secretary Qin said that you will be looking for Boss Lu today. Boss Lu is waiting for you inside. Please come in."
"Yes."
An Xia gently replied.
The secretary opened the door of the tall office and gestured for her to enter.
After Anxia went in, the secretary wondered why Miss An hadn't brought her lunchbox with her today.
Secretary Qin was currently reporting something to Lu Bai in a large Jomeno office.
"Knock." Anthea knocked twice, neither lightly nor heavily.
Lu Bai lifted his eyes to look at him.
One glance meant ten thousand years.
In those most beautiful brown eyes, one could see the coldness and infinite tenderness of that perfect man, his longing for dignity and the love of women.
An Xia'er's eyes flickered as she looked him in the eye. "…" Are you free? "
Secretary Qin bowed respectfully towards Lu Bai, "Then CEO Lu, I'll be leaving first."
Lu Bai nodded his head lightly.
Secretary Qin closed the office door when he went out.
Lu Bai picked up a cup of tea from the side and, without looking at An Xia'er, gestured to the seat across from him. "Take a seat."
After not seeing him for three days, Lu Bai's expression seemed to have turned even colder.
However, there seemed to be something else. A layer of dark clouds had enveloped his handsome forehead.
An Xia'er sat across from him without a word. "…"
Lu Bai moved the shares transfer document to her, took out a Mont Blanc pen, pulled out the cap and gave it to her, "If you feel that I'm not at ease with your shares, then sign it. After that, I will get someone to write back your name as soon as possible."
Without a word, Anchor picked up the pen and began to sign.
"These few days …" Lu Bai suddenly said.
An Xia'er's pen paused for a moment.
"Have you ever thought about coming back to find me?" he said.
An Xia'er was so nervous that her ears felt a little hot. She lowered her head and continued to sign, her hand suddenly stiff. "I don't dare."
"…"
"CEO Lu's indifference will make me feel that my initiative is very cheap."
"…"
An Xia signed her last name. "Although I may be nothing to you, I still have the least bit of dignity. If someone asks me to leave, I won't shamelessly stay and watch their faces."
Just like what he had said to Zhan Qian that day, if she didn't love Lu Bai's words and wanted to be vain for the sake of her reputation and position, she might have continued to stay by Lu Bai's side.
But love is strange.
In front of the person you love, you don't want to suffer any grievances. You can feel wronged outside, but only he can't hurt you.
After Anxia finished signing, she lifted her face and met Lu Bai's light brown eyes with hers.
He was looking at her.
Her eyes were so calm and elegant that it could move one's heart.
"…" An Xia'er composed herself and said, "I've finished signing this."
Lu Bai looked at her. There wasn't much expression on his handsome, perfect face. His gaze moved from her face to the document.
After a while.
He nodded. "Alright, I'll get someone to transfer back to you as soon as possible."
"So …" Anchor tried to find something else in his face. "What else?"
Did he have any feelings for her?
Would you like to sign the divorce forms now...
Lu Bai looked into her eyes as well, and the two of them stared at each other in silence.
It seemed like no one wanted to be the first to say the word 'divorce'...
However, they all believed that it was because the other party wanted a divorce.
However, Lu Bai was, after all, a man with thousands of experiences. Having been in the shopping mall for a long time, he was very good at seizing the initiative when it came to occasions and conversations.
"My lawyer." Lu Bai paused for a moment, then added, "I'm talking about the exclusive lawyer for marriage. I have something to attend to today, if you insist …" You can come back in a few days. "
"…"
An Xia was silent.
What do you mean? Was he proposing something?
An Xia'er slightly knitted her brows, trying to read his meaning from his face.
However, what Lu Bai was thinking in his heart was obviously not on his face. In fact, there was even a calmness in his eyes. He didn't avoid her gaze and instead met An Xia's gaze …
"Is there a problem?"
An Xia'er hurriedly stood up. "…" "Got it."
When she turned around with the second transfer document, the look in Lu Bai's eyes darkened.
"The existence of the memory device will be leaked out. I'm sure that it was the lightning that informed the Nangong Family." He said, "These few days, I sent someone to go to your university to find that person. His identity is not false, but after he left the White Night Palace, he did not return to that university."
An Xia'er stopped in her tracks.
Her gaze slowly widened. What did he mean?
She shook her hand. "Are you trying to say that I was cheated by him, that I did a futile and foolish thing when I let him go?"
"…" Lu Bai went silent for a moment, his tone no longer as cold as a few days ago, "I didn't say that. I just said that that person didn't return to that university, but he did indeed have a grandma who was receiving treatment in the hospital. But he hasn't been to the hospital since he got back. "
What was that?
An Xia'er recalled Tian Lei's words as well as Lu Bai's analysis. Her eyes widened as she asked, "Are you trying to say that he went to the Nangong Family?"
"I can't rule out that possibility."
"…" An Xia'er gritted her teeth. "I don't believe it. He said that he wouldn't tell that Nangong family about what he saw in the White Night Palace. Maybe he has a weakness, maybe it's his grandmother. He has no choice but to report it to someone else."
An Xia had always believed that Lei wasn't that kind of person.
He was a commercial spy because someone had taken advantage of the relationship between him and her, and there was no way for him not to take the risk …
"There are a lot of things that you don't believe, so it doesn't go in the wrong direction." Lu Bai said, "Of course, I don't want to bother with you about this matter today either."
"So what are you trying to say?" A Xia'er forced a smile. "I was the one who let him go, so I'll be in charge. If you want me to go to jail, that's fine too."
She could still do these four words if she dared to take the responsibility!
Lu Bai looked at her beautiful back and smiled. "The reason I'm telling you this is because I want to tell you about the situation regarding Thunder."
"…"
"Also, the military is indeed the biggest partner in the project, and Pei Ou is the representative of the military." Lu Bai said, "That day, Pei Ao was present as well. Regarding that plate, he actually had the right to punish it, but my wife let go of that plate in front of us. Although I was truly angry at the time, angry that you actually used the collar clip I gave you to save someone unrelated, on the other hand, I had to give Pei Ao a explanation …"
So he told her to scram, just to punish her?
An Xia'er blinked her moist eyes. "Then what do you want to say now?"
Lu Bai looked at her steadily. His tall and straight body leaned back, looking like an art statue sitting in a luxurious office — —
His voice was rich and gentle. "What if I said that I asked you to scram that day without thinking?"
"…"
An Xia'er was stunned.
Was he explaining, apologizing to her?
She abruptly turned her head to look at him. "…"
"Hmm?"
Lu Bai looked at her.
An Xia laughed. She was truly worthy of being the CEO of a multinational corporation. Even the way she apologized was so forceful that she had to obediently go back. If she didn't go back, then she wouldn't be tactful?
What a domineering man. He felt that no matter what, women should always lower their heads to him.
But even so.
An Xia'er felt touched that he could speak …
"Then I'll ask you." An Xia'er held back the tears in her eyes. She smiled and raised her eyes to look at him. "Lu Bai, do you love me?"
Lu Bai's expression instantly froze.
Although his tone was a bit calmer, the tip of his eyebrows and eyes still carried the chill of glaciers, which was hard to approach.
"If I remember correctly, I said that I like you." Lu Bai looked at her. "I like that woman with poor culinary skills …"
"I don't want to like it." An Xia'er looked at him. "I want the words in your heart."
"…"
"Say, to that little girl who saved you back then, it's not like, it's love." An Xia'er blinked and looked at him with tears in her eyes. "Then in your Lu Bai's eyes, liking and loving are two different things, right?" "Then what role do I play in your eyes and heart?"
Lu Bai pursed his beautiful lips. He didn't think that An Xia would ask him about this. It was as if something was being suppressed by him in his eyes.
"If." An Xia bit her lip. "If one day you find her, or if she comes back to find you, what will you do? Will you be responsible for her after you divorce me and marry her for the rest of your life?"
"Why do you ask?"
Lu Bai frowned.
"You said that you didn't mean to tell me to scram." "Then let's make up for it this time. To me, there is also an element of unease at your side. Perhaps one day, you will give up on me again for another woman."
At this time, she felt that there were some things that needed to be asked clearly.
