"Xu Xiaoxiao, I was fired because of you."

Chen Xia's words were like a sharp blade, straightforward and without any hesitation.

There was a complex light flashing in her eyes, including anger, unwillingness, but more of it was an indescribable bitterness.

After hearing this, the corners of Xu Xiaoxiao's mouth slowly curled up into a playful smile on her delicate face.

This smile seems relaxed and casual, but it seems to hide endless depth and cunning.

She opened her red lips and chuckled: "Hehe..."

Although the laughter was clear and pleasant, it seemed to carry some indescribable irony and contempt.

Then, she said in a soft, almost whispering tone: "Is it really just because of me? In my opinion, it's probably you who have those thoughts about Fu Yanchen that you shouldn't have! Fu Yanchen is a man who hates this kind of behavior the most. Do you know why Sister Su Rou has stayed with him for so many years? Because she knows her limits."

Although her voice was soft, it was like an extremely sharp dagger, piercing the other person's heart.

And in this soft voice, there was a hint of sarcasm that was hardly noticeable, just like a few thin and sharp thorns suddenly mixed in with the warm spring breeze, which caught people off guard and made them feel a slight chill.

The corners of Chen Xia's mouth twitched unconsciously. It was a subtle reaction of being poked in a sore spot. She didn't expect Xu Xiaoxiao and Fu Yanchen to have the same tone.

But she still said stubbornly, "Even if it's like this, it's because of you. If it weren't for you, he...would have looked at me a few more times..."

Her voice trembled slightly, but she stubbornly insisted on her position. The corners of her beautiful lips curled up into a smile, which was not a smile. There were too many emotions hidden in that smile, including helplessness, sadness, and even a sense of confusion about the future.

A hint of surprise flashed across Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by indifference, as if the surprise was only a flash in the pan and had never really existed.

"So? Then what? What do you want to say?"

She tilted her head slightly and asked softly. Her voice was as gentle as the spring breeze blowing across the lake, but it also revealed a nonchalant attitude.

It seemed that Chen Xia standing in front of her was just an insignificant passer-by to her, and her presence or absence could not cause any ripples in her heart.

Chen Xia took a deep breath, as if she wanted to inhale all the air around her into her lungs.

She closed her eyes tightly and frowned slightly, trying to calm the waves of emotions surging in her heart in this way.

After a long while, she slowly opened her eyes. Her gaze gradually returned to calm, but a subtle ripple could still be seen.

"Xu Xiaoxiao, I... just want to warn you a few words."

Chen Xia's voice was a little low, with some hesitation and doubt.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at her quietly, her eyes focused and serious, and responded softly: "Well, I'd like to hear more about it."

Xu Xiaoxiao calmly took a sip of coffee. It was bitter, but she felt that this was life.

She spoke slowly, each word seemed to be carefully considered.

"Xu Xiaoxiao, how could you be so ungrateful? Our chairman has already become like this! He is a powerful figure who has a remarkable status and endless glory in the imperial capital. However, for you, he resolutely gave up all of this! He left behind the halo and wealth that once surrounded him and ran all the way to this shabby little place."

Xu Xiaoxiao frowned. She didn't like people saying that this place was not good. This was the place she had carefully

Chen Xia continued, "Xu Xiaoxiao, you should know that everything the chairman did was out of his deep love for you! Can't you really see it? A man who is willing to put down his status and sacrifice his own interests for you is not easy to meet! Don't be ignorant of the immensity of the world. If you don't know how to cherish this rare relationship and always turn a blind eye to his efforts, you will regret it."

"is it?"

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the guy in front of her with disdain, thinking to herself: Is this guy a lunatic? She was too lazy to waste words with such a person, so she continued to drink her coffee.

Chen Xia's frantic voice continued to come:

"Of course! Look at you, you are so ignorant. Do you really think the chairman will always tolerate your willfulness and rudeness? You should know that the chairman is just an ordinary person! Everyone has a limit to his tolerance. Once this limit is exceeded, his patience will be exhausted. By that time, even if you cry your heart out, scream and even threaten to die in order to get back to him, it will probably be of no use."

"After all, opportunities are fleeting, and once you miss them, it's hard to recover. Therefore, while you still have a little hope, you must firmly grasp the person in front of you! Otherwise, when you wake up one day in the future and regret it, you will be the only one who will taste the heart-wrenching pain and unspeakable suffering.

Chen Xia looked a little embarrassed at the moment. Her hair was scattered on both sides of her cheeks in a messy manner. Her originally delicate makeup looked a little dirty due to her emotional fluctuations. Her eyes revealed full of unwillingness and anger.

However, in sharp contrast to this was Xu Xiaoxiao, who was standing aside. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint sneer.

There seemed to be endless meaning hidden in that smile, which contained both mockery towards Chen Xia and disdain for her overestimating her own abilities.

At this time, Xu Xiaoxiao slowly said, "Chen Xia, this is a matter between Fu Yanchen and me. It's not your turn to interfere. Who are you? A secretary should act like a secretary."

Her voice was crisp and cold, just like the chilly winter wind. Every word she said was like a sharp icicle piercing straight into Chen Xia's already fragile heart.

As the words fell, the whole space seemed to be enveloped by this chill, making people shudder.

After hearing this, Chen Xia's face instantly became extremely stiff, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on her face. Her originally bright and moving eyes now flashed a trace of pain that was difficult to conceal, like a meteor that suddenly streaked across the night sky, brief and dazzling.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao didn't seem to notice the ups and downs in Chen Xia's heart, and continued to talk relentlessly:

"Since you are no longer his secretary, there is not much for us to talk about. I sincerely hope that you can find a better job and have a bright future. Don't let yourself get bogged down in the trivialities of the past!"

Her tone was full of perfunctory and indifference, as if Chen Xia was just an insignificant passerby in her eyes.

Chen Xia's originally fair face turned ashen at this moment, as if covered by a layer of frost, and her tightly bitten lips revealed her extreme anger and dissatisfaction.

Xu Xiaoxiao said nonchalantly: "I'm so sorry, we're just a small business, and we have a lot of things to do here, so we really don't have time to greet you!"

Her voice was as gentle as a breeze, but the indifference and alienation contained in it were so obvious.

As these words fell lightly, they were like a lonely fallen leaf, floating weakly in the wind and eventually disappearing quietly.

However, these seemingly insignificant words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples in Chen Xia's heart that continued to spread out in circles.
