One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love

Chapter 376: The Retired Movie King and the Rising Starlet

The man’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn’t speak as he got into the car. It was only after starting the engine that he said leisurely, "She was in my bed, what’s the problem?""You—Xiao Jinghuai, you scoundrel!"

"She’s my wife, did she provoke Mr. Huo by being in my bed?"

Xiao Jinghuai asked sternly.

"You—"

Without waiting for Huo Junting to finish speaking, he hung up the phone and tossed it aside. "Damn Huo Junting, always causing trouble."

...

At noon, Xiao Jinghuai had finished lunch and was preparing for the afternoon meeting when someone swayed gracefully into his office.

Chenxi smiled and directly opened the office door, intending to throw herself at Xiao Jinghuai who was reading a document. Luckily, he was quick to react, raising his hand to stop her, frowning as he asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I’m here to see you!" Chenxi blinked innocently.

Xiao Jinghuai couldn’t be bothered, "Stop causing trouble here and go act in your drama."

Speaking of acting, the man from last night seemed familiar, and he immediately pulled out his phone...

Chenxi didn’t expect her big brother to be in a bad mood today, and unknowingly became a scapegoat.

No way, she couldn’t lose out; she had to find out why he’s in a bad mood.

"Big brother, what’s wrong, are you in a bad mood? Let your understanding sister hear it, maybe I can help you solve your problems!"

Xiao Jinghuai handed over the phone, "Do you know this person?"

Chenxi took it, puzzled, and upon seeing the man on the screen, her lips curved perfectly, smiling like a sly fox, "Him! An outdated old man. I know him, and I have a grudge too!"

"Back then, when I just started, I wanted to stir up some scandal with him to increase my exposure, but he flatly refused. As if I cared about him, now I’m famous too, am I not?"

Seeing her big brother’s brows furrow more tightly, "...Big brother, did he provoke you?"

"Your sister-in-law wanted to divorce me and even acted with him to deceive me, which really infuriates me!"

Although the acting was fake, that kiss was real, and he wouldn’t just let it slide.

Chenxi blinked her lively eyes, "Oh my! Sister-in-law sure was muddle-headed! If she wanted someone, she should’ve picked a young hunk, why bother..."

"Cough..." Check latest chapters at N0velFire.ɴet

Caught by a sharp gaze, Chenxi immediately changed her tune, "What I mean is, sister-in-law really gave that old man too much advantage by doing this."

"Big brother, what do you plan to do? Are you thinking of tossing this Yi Pei scandal into the sea to feed the sharks?"

Xiao Jinghuai took his phone back, "You don’t need to worry about this. Hey, why are you here today, really?"

Chenxi started scheming; originally, she came to say her exposure rate has been low recently, hoping he’d help boost her popularity. But now it seemed unnecessary...

Because she found another, better candidate.

A retired veteran actor and a rising young actress involved in rumors seemed to have a greater impact!

"Big brother, about what sister-in-law did, you... didn’t do anything to her, right?"

Xiao Jinghuai paused, thinking about the little girl still hungry, wanting to send her some food.

Forget it, let her stay hungry until she’s clear-headed.

"I confined her in Xishan Garden’s apartment for self-reflection for a period of time."

Chenxi’s eyes lit up, "Oh, I see! Big brother, I have some things to do, so I’ll go first, bye!"

"Hey! You little girl..."

Seeing her run away quickly, Xiao Jinghuai could only shake his head helplessly.

Once Chenxi left the Xiao Family and got onto the nanny car, she started looking for the old phone number of Yi Pei from years ago...

I wonder if the number has changed?

Unexpectedly, it only rang twice before it was answered on the other side, what a surprise.
