Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Taking Pleasure in Bullying Her

Su Zixi’s face was blank, “Return my favor? But the First Lady clearly refused me without any mercy.”

He Jingyao looked at her with a meaningful glance, “Think carefully, what did you do yesterday at the President Mansion?”

Su Zixi frowned and thought for a long time, “I didn’t do anything…”

After she met the First Lady, she only exchanged a few words before the First Lady turned around and left.

He Jingyao led her toward the dining room, “If the President said so, then there must be some truth to it.”

When Su Zixi was pushed onto the chair, she still felt a bit dizzy, could it be that she had amnesia?

When had she helped the First Lady, and why couldn’t she remember anything at all?

Seeing her bewildered face, the man couldn’t help but curl the corners of his lips.

“You’ve forgotten the good deeds you’ve done completely clean, that’s also an achievement,” he said teasingly, pushing the glass of milk toward her, “Forget it if you can’t remember, hurry up and eat. Anyway, this time, you really helped me, okay?”

Su Zixi drank the milk, nodding in confusion.

Halfway through her drink, she suddenly remembered something, “… Last night, I lent my spare high heels to a court lady.”

“A court lady?” He Jingyao raised an eyebrow.

“I thought she was a court lady, she told me she couldn’t come out, so I never saw her…” Su Zixi said, suddenly realizing, “Her voice was very similar to the First Lady! Could she be the First Lady?”

This delayed reaction…

He Jingyao laughed softly, “It seems so, that’s why she said she couldn’t be seen.”

Su Zixi smacked her head in annoyance, “Right! How did I not think of that! And the First Lady’s voice is clearly recognizable… When I was talking to her, it felt very familiar, but I didn’t think too much about it, because it’s normal to hear the First Lady’s speeches often, right?”

He Jingyao’s gaze was gentle, “Right.”

“But… since the First Lady knew it was me who helped her, why did she say that?” Su Zixi recalled the First Lady’s smiling yet rejecting words, and still felt hurt.

Watching her troubled expression, He Jingyao suddenly remembered how she looked heartbroken after coming out of the President Mansion yesterday, and his thin lips curved into a teasing smile, “Maybe the First Lady thinks you’re easy to bully.”

“… The First Lady would never be so mischievous!” Su Zixi retorted immediately, only this man would take pleasure in bullying her!

But thinking that the project was nevertheless a success, Su Zixi couldn’t help but feel elated, “So, I… really helped you?”

“That’s right, you really did help me,” He Jingyao said, his tone suddenly becoming serious, “In fact, over the past few days, I was just comforting you. Having offended the President, I had no solution at all, since I don’t have any relationships or connections in Yangdong City. Even if I wanted to apologize to the President, I couldn’t find an opportunity. So, this time, I really owe it to you.”

After saying that, the man smiled slightly and peeled a shrimp, bringing it to her lips, “You are truly my capable wife, aren’t you?”

Su Zixi looked at him dazed, “…Really?”

“Really,” his eyes shone brightly, and his tone was extremely sincere.

Su Zixi opened her mouth and ate the shrimp, chewing it for a while before she mumbled unclearly, “You’re tricking me again…”

He Jingyao peeled another shrimp and placed it in her bowl, saying indifferently, “Tricking you about what?”

“Tricking me…” It took Su Zixi some effort to swallow the shrimp, “that you had no solutions at all… I don’t believe it!”
