Chapter 250 The Villain Boss Doesn't Need Redemption 1
With a "crack," a glass flew over and smashed on the dining table, shards flying everywhere.
The man who was having breakfast stood up in time. The shards of glass did not injure his face, but a bloody mark was left on his hand, which was holding his phone and had distinct knuckles.
Yun Qing stood two meters away, staring at the bloodstain, momentarily stunned.
She frowned subconsciously, her gaze shifting upwards to Huo Chen's perpetually unchanging face, and a surge of anger welled up inside her.
She walked to the table and sat down, raising her chin arrogantly to look at him, and sneered, "You deliberately got hurt so you could complain to my father, right?"
Huo Chen was already used to her irrationality and tendency to lash out at any time. He said calmly, "Miss, you're overthinking it. I should go to the company now. Please enjoy your meal."
Yun Qing's face darkened, then she curled her lips into a smile, her gaze sweeping over his face as she slowly said, "What's the rush? I walked too much yesterday, my feet hurt. Give me a foot massage."
Huo Chen stood still.
Yun Qing's face turned cold. "What? You can't be ordered around anymore? Then I'll have to have a good talk with Dad. He's raised a thankless wretch!"
Huo Chen glanced at her, his gold-rimmed glasses obscuring the emotions in his eyes, making them difficult to discern.
Under Yun Qing's provocative gaze, he silently walked to her side, knelt on one knee, reached out and grasped her ankle, taking off her slippers.
Xu Yunqing was pampered since childhood and was beautiful. Even her feet were delicate and white, and holding them in your hand felt like holding a piece of fine white jade.
Huo Chen lowered his eyes and stared at the jade foot in his hand, a dark look flashing in his eyes. Its beautiful yet fragile appearance really made him want to crush it.
Yun Qing had no idea what dangerous thoughts he had. She looked down at the man kneeling in front of her, hooked his chin with her fair fingers, looked into his eyes through his glasses, smiled mockingly, and spoke with undisguised malice.
"Huo Chen, you're so obedient! Do you wag your tail when I tell you to...?"
She was interrupted before she could finish speaking.
"Xu Yunqing, you've gone too far!"
Xue Ling had just figured out the current situation.
She actually transmigrated into a book, becoming the tragic heroine of a novel with the same name as her.
The original owner was the daughter of the Xu family's nanny. Her mother had been working for the Xu family for a long time. At that time, she was still young and only had her mother as a relative. Therefore, Mr. Xu made an exception and allowed her to freely enter and leave the Xu family.
As a result, she was bullied by the spoiled Miss Xu from a young age, as was Huo Chen, an orphan who was sponsored and raised by Mr. Xu.
The male protagonist in the book is determined to marry into the Xu family, but in the process of pursuing Xu Yunqing, he becomes entangled with the original owner of the body, Xue Ling.
The scumbag fell in love with the original owner, but was still unwilling to give up the arranged marriage and wouldn't allow the original owner to leave him. Behind Xu Yunqing's back, he staged various forced love acts on the original owner, torturing her body and mind in turn.
When Xue Ling read this novel, she wanted to tear the scumbag man to pieces, felt frustrated by the female lead's cowardice, and absolutely hated the supporting female character, Xu Yunqing.
However, she insisted on finishing the novel, solely because of the villainous boss, Huo Chen.
His initial restraint followed by ruthlessness made him a complete scoundrel, so charming that she couldn't help but swoon.
The male lead isn't even worthy to carry his shoes!
If it weren't for the male lead's halo, Huo Chen wouldn't have had to die in the end.
Even his death wasn't due to being defeated by the male lead, but rather a plane crash—a pure accident. It's likely that even the author felt it was unreasonable for such a powerful figure to be defeated by the male lead.
Unexpectedly, upon her arrival, she witnessed Huo Chen being humiliated by Xu Yunqing!
She's furious! What right does Xu Yunqing have?!
She wanted to rush forward to save her favorite paper doll, but someone grabbed her arm.
Madam Xue gripped Xue Ling's arm tightly, both angry and anxious. "Xiao Ling, what nonsense are you spouting? Apologize to the young lady right now!"
Xue Ling turned to look at her mother and frowned.
As the female protagonist of a tragic novel, she is naturally pitiful in every way. She was bullied by Miss Xu since childhood and dared not utter a word, partly due to her mother, Xue.
Xue's mother was abandoned by her scumbag boyfriend and became a single mother. When she was desperate, the Xu family gave her a high-paying job so that she could raise her daughter properly.
Therefore, she was very grateful to the Xu family. In addition, she had watched Xu Yunqing grow up since she was a child, so she loved Xu Yunqing even more than her own biological daughter.
It wasn't that she didn't love Xue Ling, but whenever Xue Ling needed her support, she always sided with Xu Yunqing, making Xue Ling increasingly silent.
Xue Ling flung her hand away, rushed over, and reached out to grab Huo Chen.
Before he could even reach Huo Chen, he was pulled away by a bodyguard.
Xue Ling struggled and shouted angrily, "Xu Yunqing, what right do you have to insult me like this!"
Yun Qing glanced at the furious Xue Ling, then looked at the calm Huo Chen, and asked him with a smile, "Huo Chen, did I go too far? Do you feel insulted?"
Huo Chen remained expressionless and said calmly, "The 'chen' in Huo Chen's name means 'submitting' or 'giving'."
The character "臣" was given to him by Mr. Xu, meaning to submit to the Xu family and to Xu Yunqing.
Mr. Xu only thought of training an assistant for her to help her maintain the family business after he discovered that his only daughter's talents were all in art and she had no business acumen.
Huo Chen was the person Mr. Xu selected and personally trained.
Yun Qing looked at Xue Ling, who was being restrained by the bodyguards, and said with a regretful expression, "What should we do? Huo Chen doesn't seem to feel insulted at all!"
Xue Ling was furious!
You idiot! You're just asking for trouble!
The humiliation you inflict on him now will be repaid to you tenfold once your father dies and he has complete control of the Xu family!
You'll be spending the rest of your life in jail!
Xue Ling glanced at Huo Chen, her eyes filled with heartache, but she also realized that she was powerless and could not help him at all.
Moreover, she didn't know if Huo Chen still remembered Mr. Xu's kindness at this moment.
I simply fell silent.
Yun Qing didn't take Xue Ling seriously and was fairly satisfied with Huo Chen's performance, which improved her mood somewhat.
However, at that moment, blood from Huo Chen's hand dripped onto her feet.
Yun Qing glanced down at the wound on his hand, and her anger flared up again. She kicked him in the shoulder and scolded him with a stern face, "You can't even massage a foot properly, you're a complete waste!"
Huo Chen braced himself against the ground to steady himself, then calmly asked a servant to bring him a warm towel.
He reached out and grasped Yun Qing's ankle, wiping away the unusual bloodstain on her snow-white instep, then helped her put on her shoes before standing up.
Xue Ling, who was originally angry, looked at him and forgot her anger, her eyes filled with infatuation.
As expected of her favorite anime character, even when faced with such humiliation, she didn't look embarrassed at all, but instead remained calm and composed.
As expected of a villainous mastermind who strategizes and plans in the later stages, his mentality is truly beyond the reach of ordinary people!
Yun Qing was the complete opposite of her; the more Huo Chen acted like this, the more she loathed him!
She glanced at Huo Chen's hand and said coldly, "I hate blood! It's bad luck!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Chen casually grabbed two tissues and pressed them against his wound.
Yun Qing was still not satisfied and said irritably, "Go find Doctor Qi to bandage me!"
Dr. Qi is the Xu family's family doctor and lives in the Xu family's manor villa.
Just as Huo Chen was about to turn and leave, Yun Qing spoke up again: "Wait! You hurt yourself by accident, didn't you?"
Huo Chen lowered his eyes and said, "Yes."
Yun Qing then waved her hand in satisfaction, telling him to get lost.
