C66 (2/2)
When she felt something on her palm, she subconsciously retracted her hand and saw the door open, revealing Chen Xi's cold and beautiful face.
”Aunt, why did you come …” Abby's laughter filled the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, which only made Chen Xi Wu feel that it was fake.
”When the CEO was dealing with the plagiarism case, I might have accidentally left my hairpin here. I want to look for it.”
Noticing that she was using the term ”CEO”, Xi's brow slightly creased back into its normal state.
Without waiting for a reply, she circled around his desk, searching carefully, even lying on the carpet, searching carefully for the gap between the desk and the carpet, hoping to catch a glimpse of the hairpin.
Xi's eyes turned darker as he watched her, but when they were not paying attention, Abby put her hands in her pockets as if nothing had happened.
”Aunt, is this a very important hairpin? Why don't I help you find it?”
”No need, I'll do it myself.”
She didn't like Abby touching her own things, especially since the hairpin had been given to her by Xi Yuanzi.
”Then... ”Hubby, you go ahead, I'm going back.”
Xi's father nodded and told her to take care of her safety on the road. She had truly played out all 24 good husbands.
Hearing his words, Chen Xi Wu felt bitter. If it wasn't for that hairpin, she would have definitely found it. She would have left long ago.
When he reached the door, Abby turned around and said in a sweet voice, ”Hubby, I'll be waiting for you at home.”
Walking to the group, she took out the hairpin encrusted with rare South African blue diamonds from her pocket and looked at the diamond inlaid ”XYZ”. Jealousy and resentment flashed across her eyes.
There were four green diamonds that formed the pattern of Lucky Grass at the end of the hairpin, making her wish that she could immediately throw it away.
But she thought better of it and stuffed it back into her bag and walked over to her car.
Her cell phone suddenly rang. She took a glance at the caller ID and frowned. Then, she picked up the phone with a gloomy expression.
