315: Don’t Blame Me for Wearing You Out

Don’t Blame Me for Wearing You Out

Lu Zhaoyang was very quiet that day and hardly spoke a word.1

"Yang Yang, are you feeling okay? Is it because…" Xue Yuming asked with concern when they were alone.

She hoped that telling her daughter the truth was not a mistake. Yang Yang should stop giving her more trouble!

"It's nothing. I had a headache, that's why I left for my room last night. Don't worry about it." Lu Zhaoyang affected a calm smile and said.

She hoped that things would end here and not escalate further, and that her mother would not lose herself while trying to fit in and do more wrong.

The Huo family was rich and influential, but the family network was not too complicated.

Only old Mrs Huo had more seniority in the family than her mother. Chen was no longer in the house. She and Huo Yunting lived in the city. Besides, old Mrs Huo was rarely at home.

Her mother's life here should go on smoothly. There was no need for extreme measures.

"That's great. How are you these days?" Xue Yuming asked kindly.

"I'm alright. I have switched jobs, so I'm no longer working at Huo Yunting's company."

She decided to tell the truth.

It was impossible to hide these things from the family anyway.

"Why did you switch jobs?" Xue Yuming was baffled.

If Yang Yang worked at Huo Yunting's company, then she can still ask her daughter to speak to the man when necessary, but now…

"Did you get into a fight?"

"I just wanted a change in environment. We're good." Lu Zhaoyang explained briefly with a smile.

"Alright, as long as you are happy." Xue Yuming did not wish to make things too difficult for her. "You can always talk to him later if you want to return, he should be fine with it. I think it's better to stay in his company. After all, with him as your brother, it will keep bullies away from you."

"Yea, but my new company is not bad too. I don't plan to go back yet."

Lu Zhaoyang would not return to Thunderbolt Corp just because her misunderstanding with Huo Yunting was cleared up.

She wanted to have a life of her own too, a life free of anyone's control but her own.

"Are you sure? I'm always open to discussion. It's hard to find a secretary as capable as you, sister."

Huo Yunting's languid voice came from the door.

Lu Zhaoyang saw him with his hands in his pockets as he walked leisurely toward them.

Finally, after wasting most of the day outside, he had come home.

Lu Zhaoyang turned to her mother and said, "Mom, let me help you to your room. You must be tired now."

"Alright."

Xue Yuming did not want to face Huo Yunting herself either. It made her feel guilty. They both stood up and left.

Huo Yunting smiled crookedly and raised an eyebrow. They sure made a fast escape.

After seeing her mother to her room, Lu Zhaoyang went to her own room and snuggled under the blanket to catch up on some sleep.

"I'm very sorry to have worn you out last night, Ms Lu." Huo Yunting hopped into her room expertly through the window and teased her.

Lu Zhaoyang simply ignored him.

He slid under the blanket too and pulled her into his arms. He gave her pajamas a nudge and said, "Look at that. You should have taken off your clothes and wait for me."

Look at you!

You're only in your boxers!

"Do you like it?" She asked coldly.

"I do, but it can be even better." Huo Yunting rolled on top of her and touched her as he pleased. "I have abstained for so long that I can't help myself sometimes. This problem is your fault and yours to fix, so don't blame me for wearing you out."
