Chapter 8: 8

The cold water flowed down from Huo Jue’s toned muscles, and his breathing was still a little messy.

He felt a little surprised after he finally calmed down. How could he be enraged by Xia Jin’s words, which were meant to anger him?

Huo Jue shook his head and expelled the strange emotions in his heart.

After Xia Jin was driven out of the bathroom by him, she walked to the air conditioner in the living room. She let the hot air from the air conditioner blow on her and barely dried her clothes.

Not long after, Huo Jue walked out of the bathroom.

Xia Jin stood quietly by the couch with her hands hanging down. She heard the sound of a lighter, followed by the faint smell of tobacco.

Although Huo Jue did not speak, his actions undoubtedly exerted immense pressure on her.

Xia Jin gulped and took the initiative to break the silence. “President Huo, I’m not in a good state of mind recently. As I’m afraid I won’t be able to complete the tasks you’ve given me, I’d like to transfer to the branch office.”

Although there were still three months left in her contract, Xia Jin had no intention of staying by Huo Jue’s side during that duration.

She had already irked Huo Jue. If she continued to stay by his side, he would definitely find ways to torment her.

Huo Jue exhaled a puff of smoke. His face was blurry in the smoke, and Xia Jin’s words did not seem to surprise him much.

“Have you thought it through?” The man raised his head and looked at Xia Jin with a faint smile. “You want to run away this badly?”

Xia Jin felt a steep chill from the bottom of her heart when he looked at her in that manner. It was as if she had been targeted by some extremely dangerous animal.

“Yes, I’ve made up my mind.” Xia Jin gritted her teeth and nodded.

She no longer had a way out.

“Okay, I’ll have the personnel to send you your notice of transfer. Get lost now.” Huo Jue put out the cigarette he had not finished smoking in the ashtray and did not bother giving another glance to Xia Jin.

When Xia Jin left Huo Jue’s house, she felt a little surreal. Huo Jue did not make things difficult for her and agreed to her transfer request right away.

However, Xia Jin vaguely felt that Huo Jue would not let her off so easily.

She had a clear understanding of Huo Jue’s personality.

He could dump others, but he would never allow others to leave him on their own accord.

Xia Jin had already crossed his bottom line many times, and he would not let her off this easily.

The rain outside was getting heavier. Xia Jin turned to look at Huo Jue’s house, and then rushed into the rain without looking back.

In the room on the second floor, the man stood in front of the window and lifted the curtains gently. He watched the thin and slender figure rush into the heavy rain.

Huo Jue frowned as his heart seemed to throb slightly.

He felt that Xia Jin had changed a lot in the past five years.

The young girl still had a hint of innocence in her eyes five years ago. However, that naivety seemed a little foolish to him.

He was already at the top of the food chain in the business world. Xia Jin, who had just entered the society, seemed to be at the bottom of the food chain in his eyes.

Fortunately, Xia Jin gradually grew up after following him for five years.

But he felt a certain unsatisfactory feeling watching Xia Jin turn into what she was today.

Xia Jin seemed to have lost all the emotions that a normal woman should have. She would just complete her tasks mechanically every day. Even when she was in bed, she seemed to be completing her chores.

However, when he watched Xia Jin’s back as she rushed into the heavy rain resolutely, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be something in this woman that had never changed.

…

Xia Jin returned home in the heavy rain. It was already dark by the time she reached home.

Although she took a quick warm shower and even boiled ginger water for herself, her head was still dizzy, and her nose was stuffy when she woke up the next day. It seemed that she had caught a cold.

However, she did not have time to rest.

An email from the human resources department had come through, asking her to work at the branch office starting from today.

She went from being the president’s chief secretary to a saleswoman in the branch’s jewelry shop overnight under Huo Jue’s command.

It could simply be said that she had a downfall.

Huo Jue was really not going to let her off easily.

Xia Jin did not have an appetite to eat either, so she stopped by the pharmacy near her office to buy some medicine for the cold.

The store was located in a bustling shopping street in the city center. There was a lot of traffic around, but not many customers in the store.

The Huo Corporation was involved in the high-end jewelry customization industry. Their targeted customers were high-end consumers, and their lowest-end jewelry products were priced at hundreds of thousands of dollars. Therefore, ordinary people would not even enter the store.

The store manager had already prepared a uniform for Xia Jin early on as he had learned that she was reporting for work today.

While she was changing, several salespeople in professional suits were gossiping about her behind her back.

All of them had heard about Xia Jin’s previous job position, but they did not expect that the CEO’s secretary would suddenly come to their store and become a salesperson just like them.

Could it be that Xia Jin had fallen out of favor?
