After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 388 - 386: Is it Appropriate to Add Fuel to the Fire?

Chapter 388: Chapter 386: Is it Appropriate to Add Fuel to the Fire?

The Legal Department recently mostly dealt with corporate infringement actions, and then there was suing some media that didn’t know any better. So even if Hao Jiayi was in the Legal Department, there wouldn’t be a problem with leakages.

Zhao Xi hesitantly looked at Song Sinian, "Sir, the Feng family has sent us a woman who can’t lift with her hands and can’t carry on her shoulders. Their intention is so obvious, I’m worried... that it might, might have a bad influence."

"Really?" Song Sinian responded indifferently, as if he had taken some of it in.

Zhao Xi seized the opportunity to add, "I’ve already looked into this Hao Jiayi’s situation. Although she’s the child of Hao Ming, Hao Jiayi’s brother, she was adopted, and her relationship with Feng Jiyue is somewhat unclear and confusing."

From the investigation, it seemed that Hao Ming originally planned to wait until Hao Jiayi grew up, and then "sell" her for a good price. But it just so happened that Hao Jiayi got involved with Feng Jiyue.

Even if Hao Ming wanted to "sell" her off again, he would have to consider Feng Jiyue’s feelings.

After all, their Hao Family depended on the Feng Family to survive.

Naturally, they wouldn’t do anything against the Feng Family’s wishes, especially since Feng Jiyue was the Feng Family’s darling. They had even less to say.

Song Sinian nodded, speaking lightly, "Then that’s just perfect. I was worried that the person coming to Song Si would be ambitious. Now it seems a good fit."

"???"

Zhao Xi stared at Song Sinian, utterly bewildered, not getting the point at all.

He raised an eyebrow and finally spoke after a long while, "Sir... I don’t understand."

Song Sinian tossed the document he held onto the desk and looked up at Zhao Xi, patiently saying, "Do you think Xia Wenqing and Xu Zhenzhen would make a suitable couple?"

"Ah?" Zhao Xi didn’t expect Song Sinian’s train of thought to jump so quickly and took a moment to catch up.

He nodded repeatedly, "A handsome man and a beautiful woman, they are indeed a good match."

But what does that have to do with Hao Jiayi?

Song Sinian’s eyelids drooped, "Zhaozhao hopes Xu Zhenzhen will become her sister-in-law, but the two of them are progressing too slowly. I’m just spurring them on a bit."

"..."

Well, that’s some ’spurring on’.

Why did he feel like their master was actually roasting Xia Wenqing over the flames?

Hao Jiayi at a glance was obviously a woman the Feng Family intended to send to their master’s side.

Unexpectedly, his master had cunningly diverted her to his own uncle. This act of leading trouble away was unparalleled.

It’s just not known whether Xia Wenqing could handle it, because Hao Jiayi didn’t seem like an easy woman to dismiss.

Zhao Xi couldn’t help but sigh, not knowing whether to sympathize with Xia Wenqing or Xu Zhenzhen.

In the afternoon, the sun shone brightly, raising the temperature noticeably.

The spots where sunlight fell on the window were covered with a layer of vapor.

"Thump, thump, thump!"

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of the sickroom.

Seated inside the room reading, Lu Zhaozhao glanced at the door and saw someone who looked like an assistant enter.

"Madam, I was sent by Lady Xiao, she sent me to bring cubilose for Madam," the person said with a smile to Lu Zhaozhao. "Lady Xiao is investigating something at the hospital and might not be able to come over, so she asked me to deliver it."

Lu Zhaozhao nodded, her lips slightly curling up into a smile, giving the person a friendly look, "It’s okay, you can just leave the cubilose over there."

The person nodded, then came in and placed the cubilose on the table.

As she was leaving, she didn’t forget to tell Lu Zhaozhao, "Madam, after you finish drinking, I’ll come back for the thermos. You can just leave it there."

"Okay, I got it."

Lu Zhaozhao nodded without changing her expression and responded.

Xiao Jinglan really did care about her, afraid she might forget to eat this cubilose and that her body might show signs of the poison, right?

Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes narrowed, and thinking of Xiao Jinglan’s pale face, she had to admit that when it came to ruthlessness, Xia Wenjin was unmatched.

Even now, if Xiao Jinglan knew she was poisoned, she probably didn’t have many days left to live, right?

If she knew that Xia Wenjin was the one who poisoned her, could she still act like this?

While she was thinking, she heard a voice that wasn’t exactly unfamiliar, "Zhaozhao, are you busy?"

Lu Zhaozhao looked up at the door and wasn’t surprised at all to see who was entering.

She placed the book she was holding aside and casually glanced at Hao Li, "What can I possibly be busy with in the hospital?"

Her tone was gentle, betraying no emotion, which only emboldened Hao Li further.

Her eyes scanned around the sickroom and finally settled on the thermos at Lu Zhaozhao’s bedside.

She remembered Xiao Jinglan had said that she would send cubilose to Lu Zhaozhao every day.

That thermos by Lu Zhaozhao’s bed should be the cubilose, right?

Hao Li’s eyes squinted slightly as she slowly walked into the sickroom.

She had just seen someone enter Lu Zhaozhao’s sickroom, so she immediately followed; Lu Zhaozhao probably hadn’t had the chance to eat the cubilose yet.

Hao Li, recalling the taste of the cubilose she had eaten before, couldn’t help but salivate.

She couldn’t get anything as good as that at the Feng family’s place; now that she had the opportunity, she certainly didn’t want to miss it.

Hao Li walked up to Lu Zhaozhao’s bedside with a light laugh, "Zhaozhao, I just saw someone coming into your sickroom. Was that person a friend of yours?"

Lu Zhaozhao raised an eyebrow, "The person just now is a servant from Lady Xiao’s household, here to deliver cubilose. Is there a problem?"

"No problem, of course no problem," Hao Li forced a smile, "It’s just... sigh! I got hurt before, and I’ve been feeling uncomfortable ever since. Yesterday, after eating cubilose, I instantly felt a lot better. I know the old master has already taken good care of us. It wouldn’t be right to trouble him further..."

As she said this, her eyes kept covertly glancing at the thermos at the head of Lu Zhaozhao’s bed.

If Lu Zhaozhao couldn’t see her intention now, she would be truly blind.

She hadn’t intended to eat what Xiao Jinglan sent over in the first place, but she didn’t expect Hao Li to be so eager.

And she had provided her with such a good excuse.

Lu Zhaozhao’s brows lifted slightly, but instead of going along with her words, she responded, "Grandpa has been indeed very busy lately and hasn’t had much time. You could go directly to Lady Xiao; she has been at the hospital lately."

Hao Li was a bit choked up, but thinking of the delicious cubilose from the day before, she bit her lip and still pretended to be hesitant, "Lady Xiao has to busy herself investigating the hospital. I wouldn’t dare bother her, sigh..."

As she spoke, she sighed deeply, as if genuinely considering everyone else first.

Lu Zhaozhao, holding back the urge to laugh, bowed her head slightly before saying, "If you don’t want to ask Grandpa and you don’t want to find Lady Xiao, are you expecting me to help you out? I don’t have much say in the Song family; I’m afraid I won’t be of much help."

"No need for any say, didn’t I just see Lady Xiao had someone send you cubilose?"
