After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 442 - 440 True Mutual Affection

Agree to what?

Xu Zhenzhen, that damned woman!

She definitely did it on purpose!

Liu Xiaozhen clenched her fist, yet forced a smile on her face toward both of them. "Since we’ve come to this point, I’ll have to trouble Lawyer Xia to join me in this difficult matter."

As she said this, she purposefully gave Xia Wenqing a gentle smile, as if she agreed to this troublesome task just for his sake.

How could Xu Zhenzhen possibly miss that?

"You might be mistaken, Lawyer Liu." No sooner had Liu Xiaozhen finished speaking than Xu Zhenzhen blurted out.

"Our Lawyer Xia isn’t as idle as you, he has lots of work to do. Plus, he needs to make money to support his family, so he doesn’t have that much free time to be charitable."

Liu Xiaozhen could hardly believe her own ears.

Xia Wenqing needs to earn money for his family?

Isn’t he the second young master of XJ Group?

With such a powerful family background, how could he possibly need to earn money to support his family?

Could it be that XJ Group is in trouble?

Impossible...

XJ Group had just partnered with Song Group domestically and was thriving, how could they be in any trouble?

She looked at Xu Zhenzhen in amazement, her eyes full of confusion.

Xia Wenqing, propping up his chin, said leisurely, "I transferred all of my company shares to my sister, which means I am now just an employee at XJ Group."

Hao Jiayi’s smile stiffened, "Lawyer Xia, you must be joking, right? Although our CEO’s wife is your sister, she wouldn’t just give her all the shares, would she?"

Xia Wenqing glanced at Hao Jiayi and chuckled lightly, "Of course, it wasn’t a decision I made alone. My older brother and two younger brothers all did the same, so our family company now belongs to my sister, and we brothers are merely working for her."

"..."

"..."

A strange silence suddenly descended upon Xia Wenqing’s office.

But soon, this silence was broken once more.

"Lawyer Xia is so doting to his sister, he must spoil his other half just as much," Hao Jiayi said, her gaze turning shyly towards Xia Wenqing.

She all but outright said, when she marries Xia Wenqing, to let him pamper her properly.

Xia Wenqing glanced at Hao Jiayi and nodded seriously, "I will definitely spoil my own wife."

As he said this, his gaze inadvertently fell on Xu Zhenzhen, who was beside him.

Hao Jiayi, not knowing Xia Wenqing well, naturally took it as a casual remark.

But Liu Xiaozhen knew him, so when his gaze inadvertently landed on Xu Zhenzhen, her heart involuntarily clenched tight.

Ever since her attempts to drive a wedge between Xu Zhenzhen and Xia Wenqing failed, she felt as if something had gone out of control.

Especially every time she saw Xu Zhenzhen and Xia Wenqing clinging together, that ominous premonition grew stronger.

Liu Xiaozhen hastily changed the subject, "Lawyer Xia, even if you gave all your shares to Miss Lu, don’t you still have your own law firm? How could you be like Zhenzhen said, needing to earn money for the family?"

"This..."

Xia Wenqing wasn’t sure either why Xu Zhenzhen had said that just now. As he hesitated, Xu Zhenzhen’s crisp voice rang out in the office.

"Our Lawyer Xia, of course, needs to earn money to support the family, now that he’s not alone anymore, right, Lawyer Xia?"

When she said this, she also playfully winked at Xia Wenqing.

They seemed to have a very intimate relationship.

Hao Jiayi, who was next to them, looked at Xu Zhenzhen and Xia Wenqing, puzzled, "Lawyer Xia isn’t alone? Then who else is in his family?"

Could it be that there was some illegitimate child or something?

It’s quite normal for wealthy families to have one or two illegitimate children—she had seen it before.

However, if something like that happened to Xia Wenqing, she found it a bit hard to accept, as from the time she joined the law firm until now, she knew well what kind of person Xia Wenqing was.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone to great lengths trying to marry him.

Xu Zhenzhen said with a light laugh, "Who else could it be? Obviously, he’s gone from bachelor to a blissfully married couple."

Her little hand gently pinched Xia Wenqing’s cheek, "Starting now, our Lawyer Xia has to earn money to support me, so for those irrelevant trifles, I don’t agree for him to bother with them—is this reason sufficient?"

Xu Zhenzhen declared her sovereignty right there and then.

It would be a pity not to use the "Imperial Sword" that she had finally obtained from Xia Wenqing.

Especially when she saw Liu Xiaozhen and Hao Jiayi’s faces turn pale almost instantly, her heart was simply exhilarated.

Who made those two little vixens always flit around in front of her second brother for no good reason?

Humph!

Hao Jiayi’s mouth hung open for a long while, she simply couldn’t recover her composure.

In the end, it was Liu Xiaozhen who spoke first, "You two... you two are together?" freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

That’s impossible; there were still so many misunderstandings between them, how had they clarified everything?

Liu Xiaozhen suddenly felt a chill running down her spine—if Xia Wenqing knew what she had done before...

Her fists clenched tightly, but she quickly came to her senses.

If Xia Wenqing already knew the whole truth, he wouldn’t be as calm as he was now.

There must be something between them that she wasn’t aware of.

The so-called romance between Xu Zhenzhen and Xia Wenqing probably wasn’t as effortless as they made it out to be.

Liu Xiaozhen narrowed her eyes, thinking there might be another breakthrough—she definitely mustn’t panic.

Xu Zhenzhen, resting a hand on Xia Wenqing’s shoulder, nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Lawyer Xia and I are together now. You should congratulate us, right? After all, we are such good colleagues, don’t you think?"

Liu Xiaozhen and Hao Jiayi both looked a bit uncomfortable, but to make a good impression in front of Xia Wenqing, they both forced a smile.

"I didn’t expect you two to get together; it really caught me off guard," Liu Xiaozhen said sullenly, looking at the two, but she didn’t offer any congratulations.

Xia Wenqing’s dark eyes lowered slightly, and he spoke indifferently, "Is it so unusual for us to be together? I liked Zhenzhen back in university, I just didn’t have the opportunity then. Now she’s given me one."

As he said this, his hand gently held Xu Zhenzhen’s.

At this, Xu Zhenzhen, who had been rather triumphant just before, suddenly blushed.

She didn’t expect Xia Wenqing to say that; after all, back in school...it was her who had liked him first.

If it were truly as Xia Wenqing said, then the two of them would genuinely be mutually in love...
