Chapter 265 The Domineering and Mighty Yan Zuozuo
Chapter 265 The Domineering and Mighty Yan Zuozuo
Fisher narrowed his eyes, recalling Yan Zuozuo's appearance just now. In the more than half a month since she left, he had become increasingly clear about his feelings for her. He didn't mind competing unfairly with Chi Moqing, nor did he care how long the battle would be. After all, he had already waited for so many years, so he didn't mind waiting a few more.
He was determined to have Yan Zuozuo!
When Yan Zuozuo returned to her office, Tong Shili hugged her and started ranting and raving about Fisher, "I knew he was a pervert, but I never imagined he was this perverted. Only you, Zuozuo, could put up with him. If I had to serve someone like that for a day, I'd want to quit. He's the most perverted person in the world!"
Yan Zuozuo smiled but remained silent, chatting with Tong Shili while handling her work. It has to be said, during her absence, Tong Shili and Fisher had really made a mess of things; she'd probably need a whole day to sort it out.
"I'm not trying to be mean, but if it weren't for his power, influence, and good looks, with his obsessive and twisted personality, he would have been assassinated countless times. He should really be grateful to his family; even if he were killed someday, he'd probably at least have a whole corpse left," Tong Shili said dismissively, curling her lip.
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback. She had heard Lu Yaoyuan mention Fisher's power and influence before, but she hadn't taken it to heart. Now, hearing Tong Shili bring it up again, she couldn't help but feel curious.
At lunchtime, everyone went to eat, but Yan Zuozuo wanted to finish her work as soon as possible, so she ordered takeout online. However, before the takeout arrived, the office door opened first, and Qin Yun walked in arrogantly and sat directly opposite her.
"Is there something you need, Deputy Director Qin?" Yan Zuozuo asked with a faint smile when she met Qin Yun's resentful gaze.
Qin Yun looked at her with a cold smile: "What, you won't even pour me a glass of water?"
Yan Zuozuo glanced at her, shrugged, and said, "I don't think Deputy Director Qin is looking for me just for a glass of water. Let's just get straight to the point."
Qin Yun's face darkened: "Yan Zuozuo, your methods are getting more and more sophisticated. How come I never noticed before?"
Yan Zuozuo frowned: "Deputy Director Qin, either speak your mind directly, or go out first and come back to me when you've thought it through. I'm very busy right now and don't have time to beat around the bush with you."
Qin Yun stiffened, not expecting Yan Zuozuo's tone to be so forceful. She stared intently at her, clenched her fist, and threw a bag in front of her. "Don't tell me you don't know what's going on!"
Yan Zuozuo took a look. Inside was a large stack of photos of Qin Yun being intimate with a man while they were in the United States. She didn't recognize the man, but he seemed to be wealthy. The last few photos showed Qin Yun being brutally beaten by a woman, while the man stood by without reacting at all.
Yan Zuozuo raised an eyebrow, quickly recalling the news footage of wives beating up mistresses. No wonder Fisher didn't plan to reconcile with Qin Yun; it turned out there was such a story behind it.
"Deputy Director Qin, I really don't know where these photos came from, but the content is quite interesting." Yan Zuozuo shrugged and smiled.
A ruthless glint flashed in Qin Yun's eyes as she gritted her teeth and said, "I received these photos the moment you started work. Are you still trying to deny it?"
Yan Zuozuo smiled faintly: "I didn't do it. If Deputy Director Qin insists that I did it, I have nothing to say. However, it seems that Deputy Director Qin's romantic history is quite complicated."
Hearing Yan Zuozuo's mocking words, Qin Yun's face turned ashen with anger. She had received these photos that morning, and their contents had shocked her. Back when she was at MB, in order to climb to the position of chief designer, she had indeed slept with the MB president and maintained this relationship for a long time, until his wife discovered it…
Qin Yun felt a pang of shame as she recalled those unbearable years. The wife of the MB president found her and beat her up, making her the laughingstock of the entire American design industry. She simply couldn't stay there any longer and had no choice but to return to China.
As for Fisher, she was indeed still hung up on her old flame. She returned to China partly to avoid the limelight, and partly to win him back. She originally thought those things wouldn't reach the country, but she didn't expect them to be discovered, especially on Yan Zuozuo's first day at work. It couldn't be that she wasn't involved. But judging from Yan Zuozuo's demeanor, it didn't seem like she was the one who did it. If it wasn't her, then who was it?
Chi Moqing?!
The thought had barely crossed Qin Yun's mind when she froze on the spot. Her gaze towards Yan Zuozuo was filled with anger. Why was it that this woman had a husband who doted on and protected her, while she, who was better than her in every way, had nothing!
She was seething with jealousy: "It seems Miss Yan has found a perfect husband. He protects you so much; it's truly enviable." Qin Yun said through gritted teeth, while Yan Zuozuo just smiled faintly at her, "Indeed, my husband loves and spoils me. Although sometimes I don't understand what he does, I believe that everything he does is for my own good. A woman should find a husband who loves and spoils her; otherwise, she'll have nowhere to vent her frustrations."
She spoke casually, but Qin Yun's face turned ashen with anger, as if she wished she could kill Yan Zuozuo on the spot.
"They're a perfect match, the envy of everyone. But if President Chi knew about your passionate affair with Young Master Ou, I wonder if he would still love Miss Yan so much. That would be a huge cuckold's horns. Knowing President Chi's personality, what do you think he would do?"
"Snapped!"
Before Qin Yun could speak, a loud slap landed on her face. She stared wide-eyed in astonishment at Yan Zuozuo in disbelief.
How dare this woman hit her?!
She reached out to retaliate, but Yan Zuozuo threw the documents on the table at her face and body. Qin Yun hurriedly dodged, losing the initiative to strike. Then, Yan Zuozuo said, "Didn't Deputy Director Qin want to know my husband's reaction? I was just acting out a scene, why are you so angry?" She sneered, looking at Qin Yun indifferently, "This is my office. If Deputy Director Qin has nothing else to say, get out now!"
Qin Yun was completely stunned. When did Yan Zuozuo, this bitch, become so domineering?
"Yan Zuozuo, aren't you afraid I'll release the recording to the public? Then it won't just be you who will be ruined, but Chi Moqing too!"
"Go ahead and send it, but there's something I really need to remind Deputy Director Qin: 'Heaven's sins can be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins cannot be escaped.' If I were Deputy Director Qin, I would think twice about it."
Anyway, Chi Moqing already knew about the recording, so Qin Yun could do whatever she wanted. Her husband would protect her, and she wasn't afraid of what trouble Qin Yun might cause.
Qin Yun's expression suddenly turned strange. She was startled. Yan Zuozuo was so tough and carefree. Could it be that Chi Moqing already knew about these things and had even made thorough preparations to wait for her to walk into his trap?
She looked at Yan Zuozuo with a strange expression. It had only been a little over half a month since she last saw her, but she hadn't expected this woman to be so different upon her return. If Yan Zuozuo used to be a pushover, she was now definitely much more assertive.
Damn it! If Chi Moqing really knew everything, and Yan Zuozuo was no longer threatened by her, she wouldn't dare to release the recording. Who is Chi Moqing? How could she allow herself to be threatened?
She clenched her fist, glared at Yan Zuozuo, and gritted her teeth, saying, "You just wait! Don't think that just because you have Chi Moqing as your backer, you can act with impunity. I'll see how long he can spoil you. When you're abandoned, that's when you'll wish you were dead!"
Yan Zuozuo smiled faintly: "Many people have said this to me before. You're not the first person I've known since I got married, and I'm sure you won't be the last. Compared to people who only know how to talk big, I have a husband who loves and protects me. I'm so much happier. Women, it's always good to have a husband."
Yan Zuozuo's sarcastic remarks made Qin Yun tremble all over. She gritted her teeth, glaring at Yan Zuozuo, and said in a trembling voice, "Fine! Very well! Yan Zuozuo, you just wait, I will absolutely not let this go!"
"Whatever you want. The recording is in your hands anyway, so do whatever you want with it. I'll be watching. But Deputy Director Qin, let me remind you, if you're going to play dirty tricks, my husband is far more capable than you. You'd better watch yourself." She shrugged and smiled. "Take care, and don't bother seeing me out."
Qin Yun was so angry that her chest heaved. She glared fiercely at Yan Zuozuo and gritted her teeth, saying, "You'll regret this one day!" After saying that, she stomped her high heels and walked outside.
Yan Zuozuo paused when she saw the ferocious look on her face and said, "As a human being, you still have to be filial. Otherwise, you're not even as good as an animal. What do you think, Deputy Director Qin?"
Qin Yun froze. What a blatant threat! She clenched her fist and left.
As soon as Qin Yun left, Cai Keren walked in, quickly closed the office door, and asked in a low voice, "Zuo Zuo, what does she want with you?"
Yan Zuozuo seemed to be in a good mood. She sorted out the documents she had just thrown away, looked up and smiled, "It's nothing, I was just feeling down and wanted to talk to someone."
"The deputy director had a heart-to-heart talk with you?" Cai Keren glanced at the messy office; the conversation was certainly intense. She pursed her lips and said, "Impressive!"
Yan Zuozuo smiled faintly: "Remember to keep it a secret, OK?"
"Perfect!" Cai Keren chuckled, but noticing Yan Zuozuo's strange expression, she lowered her voice and said, "I just saw that Deputy Director Qin's face looks quite swollen. Could it be that you hit him?"
Yan Zuozuo neither admitted nor denied it, but simply said calmly, "People always have to improve. If you can't learn from your mistakes, then you're really too stupid. Blame it on Deputy Director Qin for picking the wrong time. I'm not so easy to bully now!"
"Well done! I love Yan Zuozuo's domineering presence!" Cai Keren gave a thumbs up. "Women must learn to protect themselves and never be soft-hearted towards those with ill intentions!"
Yan Zuozuo smiled but remained silent, then winked at Cai Keren in an ambiguous way, "However, you should also show your feminine gentleness from time to time, lest your civil servant be scared away."
"Ugh! I'm ignoring you!" Cai Keren blushed, turned around and left, leaving Yan Zuozuo giggling.
In the CEO's office at Chi Corporation, Chi Moqing had just finished a meeting and was giving instructions to his special assistant when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID; it was an unfamiliar number, and his expression darkened.
This was an international call, a long-distance call from an unfamiliar country, and he suddenly became interested in the other party.
