The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 454: Chapter 454 A Closer Look at Hai Xiaotang_1

What choice does Dongfang Zujie have!

Even though he doesn’t like him, Dongfang Hen is his son.

Furthermore, he hasn’t looked after him for a single day. Since his birth, he hasn’t had any contact with him.

For this stranger of a son, he feels neither love nor resentment.

Dongfang Zujie could only nod: “If you want to stay then stay.”

The look in He Meilian’s eyes suddenly became complicated.

With a smirk, Dongfang Hen pushed his luck even further: “I don’t have a job, don’t you think I should be set up with one? You are getting old, you won’t be able to manage for many more years, right?”

“What do you mean?” He Meilian asked abruptly.

Women are sensitive, she quickly picked up on his intentions.

Dongfang Hen laughed, “Of course, I want to ease my father’s burden. Dongfang Yu is dead, someone has to take over the company eventually.”

So, his real reason for coming back was to fight for the family property?

Just as He Meilian was about to speak, Dongfang Zujie beat her to it: “You know nothing about the company’s operations, stay out of it.”

“How do you know I know nothing about it? At least, father will let me try, right? Or are you afraid that I would take over the company? How can I take it if you don’t give it to me? Moreover, I genuinely want to help you ease your burden.”

Dongfang Hen is so blunt in his speech!

So blunt that it’s hard to tell whether he’s good or bad, let alone see his true intentions.

However, it’s certain that he came back to fight for the family property.

Knowing his intentions, Dongfang Zujie shockingly agreed to him, “Alright, I’ll arrange a position for you.”

He Meilian was taken aback!

However, whatever she thought of next made her look sad again.

Dongfang Hen stood up smiling, his eyes took turns scanning over them, “I’ll officially move in tomorrow, I hope we can live happily together.”

After saying this, he deliberately gave Hai Xiaotang an extra glance.

His gaze had an inexplicable depth to it…

Hai Xiaotang was puzzled, but intuitively felt that he was not simple.

Dongfang Hen left, but Hai Xiaotang and the others were left feeling complicated.

However, the most complicated one was He Meilian.

Dongfang Hen was a child Dongfang Zujie had with another woman, this fact alone was enough for her to feel miserable for a lifetime.

And now, her own son was missing, and another woman’s child came to fight for the family property.

Despite her not being too focused on wealth and reputation, she indeed felt uncomfortable.

As soon as Dongfang Hen left, He Meilian stood up and said faintly: “I’m tired, I’m going to rest first!”

“Meilian….” Dongfang Zujie tried to stop her, but she walked away quickly, without looking back.

Dongfang Zujie saw her sorrow; he immediately got up and chased after her.

“Meilian!” Entering the bedroom, Dongfang Zujie tried to hold her, but she pushed him away with agitation.

“Don’t touch me!”

Dongfang Zujie was stunned, his mood suddenly became gloomy.

Nevertheless, he went over and held her shoulders firmly, “Meilian, can you listen to me? I did not acknowledge him because I wanted to, but because there was no other choice! I had no intention to let him manage the company, but I realized his intentions were suspicious, thus keeping him nearby for monitoring. Don’t worry, in my heart, you and Yuyu are the most important! I’d never allow him to cause you distress. You must trust me, believe that I would never harm you!”

Hearing his explanation, He Meilian couldn’t hold it in any longer and tears slid down her face.

Dongfang Zujie became anxious immediately, “Meilian, everything I said is true! You and Yuyu are the only ones who matter to me!”
