The happy life she had painstakingly worked for had only just begun. Now, another woman had come along with her child to snatch her husband away from her. How could she tolerate this?
What she couldn’t stand the most were lies and betrayal.
She had suffered enough heartbreak in her love life. The betrayal she had suffered five years ago had almost made her lose her faith in life.
She thought that Huo Yunshen would mark a new start of her life. But what did it matter now?
At this time, there was only one notion in Xu Xiyan’s chaotic mind: she should immediately go look for Huo Yunshen and clear up the truth.
She called his phone but his phone was turned off. Since she could not reach him, she could only drive to the Huo Group office herself.
She drove in a muddled state. Her hands were cold and her mind was blank. She almost ran a red light a few times.
By the time she parked her Porsche outside the Huo Group Tower, her clothes were soaked all over in cold sweat. Her chest was also so tense that it was difficult to breathe.
Huo Yunshen…
Whenever she thought of his name now, her heart ached with suffocating pain.
Huo Yunshen, what am I going to do with you?
Xu Xiyan leaned on the steering wheel for a moment. After sorting out her emotions, she opened the door and got out of the car.
After entering the corporate tower, Xu Xiyan said to the staff at the front desk, “Please inform President Huo that I want to see him.”
The girl at the front desk raised her delicate face and looked Xu Xiyan up and down. She saw that Xu Xiyan wore sunglasses and a flu mask and was ordinarily dressed, her sweat-sodden hair plastered against her forehead and neck. She looked quite wretched.
Which hole did this woman crawl out from? She wants to sneak into the Huo Group Tower?
And see the president?
Who does she think she is?
There were so many frauds like her who wanted to see the president the front desk girl had to dismiss every day.
She said to Xu Xiyan in a very impolite manner, “Excuse me, who are you? Which unit are you from? Do you have an appointment? If you don’t have one, please leave!”
Xu Xiyan’s patience was running out. She slammed her palm onto the front desk. “I have no appointment and I’m not from any unit. Tell him that my surname is Jing. Just call him, he will definitely meet me.”
The girl behind the front desk jumped in shock. She didn’t pay attention to whether the woman in front of her had said “Jing” or “Jin.” She glared at her for slamming her fist on the desk and making a commotion.
“Why did you slam the desk? Are you crazy? You dress like a fisherman and you look like a dumpling with those clothes. You keep yapping about seeing the president with that mouth of yours. Do you think an uncultured person like you could simply meet our president at her own whim? Go-go-go, leave! Otherwise I’m calling security!”
The lowly front desk girl chided Xu Xiyan as if she was a good for nothing person. If she wasn’t a woman, Xu Xiyan would have already rewarded her with a punch.
Xu Xiyan didn’t beat her up. Instead, she shot a don’t-you-test-my-temper look at the front desk girl. “Very well. I shall remember you.”
After finishing her words, Xu Xiyan rounded the front desk and headed towards the elevator.
So, she won’t call him huh? No matter; she would go find him herself.
“Hey-hey-hey, what are you doing? You can’t go in there, you know!”
Seeing that her warnings had fallen upon deaf ears, the front desk girl quickly called security. “Security! Stop that woman! I don’t know where is she from but she is mad! She wants to intrude no matter what!”
Very soon, six security guards rushed over with shock batons in their hands. They were going to arrest Xu Xiyan.
This time, they had pushed Xu Xiyan to her limit. She was completely not in the mood to explain anything anymore. Originally, she was feeling very annoyed and there was nowhere to vent her anger. Now, these people were literally asking for their doom.
Whenever a security guard reached out to grab her, Xu Xiyan would counter with a kick to his side that sent him flying into the air.
The guards saw Xu Xiyan as a terrorist intruder. One by one, they all closed in to surround her.
They had the numbers and they intended to bully her with that advantage. Well, don’t blame Xu Xiyan for going all out.
