Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 44 Providing Water to Drink

Jiayi struggled to prop up her limp body, "Let it be."

Huo Zhenyang gave her a sidelong glance. This girl, why was she so kind-hearted towards others, yet a disobedient little wild cat when it came to himself? Couldn’t she see that Gao Ziming was acting, crying and begging?

He turned slightly, bending down a bit, and without any concern for Gao Ziming’s presence — since he knew about their relationship, it didn’t matter — he leaned close to the girl’s feverishly red ear, teasingly taunting,

"With such a compassionate heart, I should send you to Africa to volunteer."

Jiayi glanced at the pitifully crying Gao Ziming and mustered her energy, her voice weak, "I’m not sympathizing with Vice President Gao, it’s just that ... his children and elders are always innocent, and when you fire one person, you might ruin the futures of several others."

Huo Zhenyang pondered for a moment, his eyes like nails, firmly etching on her pale and delicate face. Finally, he turned his head away, his voice stern, "Don’t say a word of today’s events to anyone."

"Yes, President!" Gao Ziming, as if pardoned, almost cried out in surprise and joy. This assistant really had a way with words!

"Get out."

Gao Ziming hastily stood up, stumbling as he quickly left the hotel.

Jiayi sighed in relief, her ears finally quiet. But as soon as she stepped out of the hotel and was hit by the night breeze, the alcohol surged up, and her little face crumpled uncomfortably.

Huo Zhenyang’s eyes darkened slightly as he picked up a beverage prepared in the car’s water holder, twisted it open, and stretched out his long arm to pull her into his embrace.

"Wh-what are you..." Before she could finish, she felt her mouth being pried open, a cool and sweet liquid pouring in, flowing down her throat, moistening her stomach and innards.

It was a vitamin and mineral drink, with the sweet taste of honey, the refreshing mint, and a faint, sweet citrus flavor.

The man was feeding her water himself.

She wanted to take the drink and sip it herself, but his firm grip held her tight, locking her in his arms, leaving no room to move, just like a baby being fed.

Vitamins and honey both had a rapid sobering effect. Soon, her head cleared considerably, and the discomfort from the alcohol subsided.

Finally, she sat up, breathing in the night air a few times, and felt much more comfortable. She looked at the man who had placed the drink in the front slot.

"...Can we leave now?" she asked weakly.

A gust of warm air hit her, and Huo Zhenyang leaned down his tall, sturdy body, coming closer than two centimeters from her, lifting her chin before she could react, "Leave? Is that what you’re thinking about now?"

His eyes were like a hawk’s, blazing with anger.

If it had been a moment later, maybe Li Daguo would have succeeded!

Just now in the private room, she had been wary of Li Daguo’s presence and her consciousness had been muddled, so she hadn’t really lost her temper at Jiayi. But now that the girl’s drunkenness was wearing off and she was feeling more comfortable, her anger finally erupted.

She could feel the man’s towering rage from the moment they left the private room. How else could he have beaten those two men to such a state?

After all, she was currently his girlfriend, even if only in pretense. Wouldn’t his face be lost if someone dared to take liberties with her?

"Actually... I’m just pretending to be your girlfriend, it’s only so you can deal with your grandfather... you don’t have to be so nervous..." She instinctively pushed the man away, fearing that any closer and she would be scorched by his intense heat.

The moment her small hand pushed against the man’s solid chest, it ended up grasping at nothing, as Huo Zhenyang firmly seized her wrist and lifted it. She only saw the man’s face grow even darker and more menacing as he enunciated each word:

"Even a fake girlfriend is my person. If you were to be slept with, it would only be me; it’s not for others to take turns!"

His domineering and overbearing manner sent a chill through Jiayi. She suddenly realized she had provoked the dignity of a man who should not be provoked. Before she could even attempt to remedy the situation, the furious man was already looming over her, his arms propped on either side of her, trapping her within his cage-like embrace. He leaned close to her cheek, bit her lip, and pried open her small white teeth.

Had he not arrived in time just now, had she really been taken advantage of by Li Daguo, infamous in those circles, he wasn’t sure if he wouldn’t have immediately sent someone to wipe Li Daguo out.

She was momentarily stunned, overwhelmed by his display of possessiveness, losing the power to resist. It took several seconds and dwindling breath before she gathered enough strength to pound on him with clenched fists, sobbing continuously, "Let... let me go... uh... let..."

Such struggling and pounding only fueled the man’s determination not to release her.

Until someone’s cell phone began to ring piercingly inside the vehicle. He furrowed his brows, momentarily distracted, and Jiayi took this opportunity to exert all her strength and push him away!

Huo Zhenyang calmed down somewhat, finally retreating to the driver’s seat beside her, breathing heavily. He loosened the collar of his white shirt, his handsome, deep-set eyes now red from the heat, watching the girl in front of him who had exhausted all her strength.

Her long hair, disheveled because of the struggle, was a mess, curling around her alluring collarbone like little serpents. Her clothes were disordered, revealing the snow-white nape of her neck, every inch of her seemed to stir the man’s desire.

The thought of her in that private room, seducing other men with this posture, deepened the silent rage in Huo Zhenyang’s eyes.

Damn! He cursed inwardly, his handsome face as dark as night.

In an attempt to distract him from his anger, Jiayi fumbled with her phone, answering a call, "Hello..."

Only when she spoke did she realize that her mouth ached, swollen and sore, altering the tone of her voice. Touching her lips, she found that the damned man had kissed them until they were puffy.

"Hello, is that Jiayi? Ah, Miss, you finally answered the phone!" It was Tang En’en’s voice, sounding relieved.

Earlier, while in the private room attending a dinner party, at Li Daguo’s request, Jiayi had turned off her phone. It was only during the struggle with Huo Zhenyang in the cramped car that she had accidentally powered her phone on, and Tang En’en’s call came rushing in.

"Yeah, En’en, I’m fine. I was sent by the deputy manager to discuss something with a client, and I’m already out. It’s too late now; I had a bit of alcohol, so I won’t be going to the KTV tonight. You guys have fun." Jiayi gripped the phone tightly, struggling not to slur her words.

Tang En’en was reassured and said over the phone, "Okay, then you go and rest well." As she spoke, her voice suddenly lowered, taking on a mysterious tone, "By the way, Jiayi, I was worried earlier and called your place. A man answered. Who was it?"
