1278   Don't Think Too Much!

"It's not too late!" The road ahead was slightly blocked by cars. Han Xiwang stared at the road in front of him seriously and spoke sincerely, "Earlier at Cihui's house, when you nervously held my hand, I actually had a palpitating feeling, just like when we first met. My heart was beating fast, even inside I was secretly happy and felt like I was in love at that moment."

It had been years…

In the past, Zhang Xiuying and Han Xiwang could be considered to have passionately loved each other. However, since they had been married for a long time, their days gradually became boring, and because Han Xiwang had been removed from his position as CEO of Han Group, his mood and condition were affected. Hence, it directly affected the family's relationship.

At that time, Zhang Xiuying was considered a famous socialite in Imperial City. The men who were chasing after her lined up in several streets. Han Xiwang, with his outstanding thick skin, actually managed to break out of the encirclement of numerous pursuers. In the end, he won Zhang Xiuying's heart.

Zhang Xiuying also thought back to that year and could not help but sigh. "So many years have passed and everything about you has changed except your thick skin!"

"Haha…" When Han Xiwang heard this, not only was he not angry, but he was also very proud. "Of course! How else could I get you without being shameless? Besides, to you… I have always been shameless!"

Zhang Xiuying glared at him but said nothing.

After the car drove for a while, Han Xiwang gently held Zhang Xiuying's hand. "Xiuying, I really know that I was wrong. It's been so long and Cihui and Qiulian have already married. Qiulian is also pregnant. As parents, we have to set an example for them."

He turned to look at Zhang Xiuying. "Xiuying, let's reconcile."

Zhang Xiuying pulled her hand back forcefully. "Drive well! It's fine if you don't want to live, but I want to live!"

After she finished speaking, she turned her head towards the window. However, the corners of her mouth slowly lifted into a slight curve, as if she was smiling.

In the Han Group, the matter of Han Cihui and Jia Qiulian's divorce was no longer a secret. It was just that no one dared to talk about it, but they were well aware of it.

When Han Cihui showed up at the Han Group this morning holding Jia Qiulian's hand, everyone was immediately dumbstruck.

It wasn't because the two had suddenly reconciled, but because of Han Cihui's face. His face was so puffy that it was so terrible to look at.

"D-director Han…" Yao Au saw Han Cihui's face and was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. "You… Your face… Who did this?"

Han Cihui looked at him calmly and spoke very casually. "Yesterday, I was punished according to the Han Family's laws. It's no big deal."

"T-the Han Family's laws?" Yao Au swallowed silently. The Han Family's laws were truly strict and ruthless!

Everyone had said that one shouldn't slap someone in the face even if one was attacked, yet this Han Family was striking someone in the face just like that.

When Yao Au looked down, he saw Han Cihui and Jia Qiulian's hands tightly intertwined. He swallowed and said, "Director Han, you… You and Jia Qiulian…"

"Our relationship has always been very good!" Han Cihui sounded like he was having a conversation, but his voice was so loud that it sounded like he was about to announce something to the crowd. "Jia Qiulian and I've always been in harmony. Don't think too much."

Han Cihui sent Jia Qiulian to her seat. He personally took out her laptop from her bag and placed it on her desk. He even helped her turn it on. "Grandmother said that this work isn't urgent. Write slowly. If you're tired, rest for a while. Don't overexert yourself."

"I know, don't worry." Jia Qiulian smiled sweetly at Han Cihui, making him smile as if he were a fool. "Then I'll go pour you a glass of milk and wash some fruits for you to eat."

He smiled but didn't say anything.

Yao Au immediately understood what was happening. He walked out of the pantry. Then he went Yao Au had done all these things before. He washed the fruits in the pantry and helped Han Cihui prepare them. Because of the relationship between Jia Qiulian and Han Cihui, she got an extra serving.

When Yao Au saw that Han Cihui had actually gone to the pantry, he hurried after him. "Director Han, I think it's better if I do this. You don't need to do such a small thing."

Han Cihui looked at him coldly. "My biggest task for the coming year is to take care of Jia Qiulian. So don't argue with me about it."

Yao Au was a little confused. "Aren't we preparing a new movie …?"

"It stopped." Han Cihui said casually, "In the coming year, all projects for our team have been stopped. During this period of time, you should all study properly. I will invite famous organizations from abroad to give you lessons."

"S-stopped?" Yao Au became more and more agitated. If all the projects were stopped, wouldn't the commissions, dividends, and bonuses also be gone? How was he going to survive on that little bit of salary?

"Director Han, did our team do something wrong?"

Han Cihui picked two beautiful apples and a Santo fruit. He went to the sink and began to wash the fruits one by one.

"No, President Han said it's only a one-year suspension. Don't be afraid."

How could Yao Au not be afraid?

One year!

"Director Han, was it because of my previous attitude towards Jia Qiulian? Was it because our team troubled her and said a lot of bad things, so President Han used this method to punish us after he found out? If that's the case, I can apologize to Jia Qiulian. This is all my fault. If… If Jia Qiulian doesn't accept my apology, then… I…I will ask for punishment!"

Han Cihui originally wanted to help Jia Qiulian vent her anger. After all, the people on the team had made her so sad that she didn't dare to come to work anymore.

He smiled but didn't say anything.

Yao Au immediately understood what was happening. He walked out of the pantry. Then he went straight to Jia Qiulian. "Jia Qiulian, I know that everything that happened was my fault. I shouldn't have guessed anything bad about you and Director Han, and moreover, I shouldn't have said those nasty words. I was wrong, I was really wrong. Can you forgive me?"
