My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1747: Chapter 1748: I Just Realized I Haven’t Thrown Out the Rat That Sneaked In

“Chu Xi, are you done yet?” Qin Jun, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, was full of sternness as he was the first to reprimand her.

Even the old butler had a disapproving look and softly spoke for Rong Yan, “Miss Chu, Miss Rong is not the type of person you think she is. You’re overthinking. Madam has never considered Miss Rong as your replacement; she genuinely likes Miss Rong, contrary to what you say.”

“What you’re saying is just your own opinion; it doesn’t represent my mom. Do you know what my mom is thinking?” Chu Xi dismissed it, “Besides, I’m just stating the truth. Why are all of you overreacting? Didn’t you see that she didn’t even react? It means I was right, and she’s feeling guilty.”

“Miss Chu, it’s inappropriate for you to be bullying Miss Rong here when Madam hasn’t even woken up yet.”

Chu Xi, humiliated and furious, arrogantly stared at him, “Mom hasn’t woken up yet, and you already don’t respect me? Isn’t that inappropriate too? Who do you think you are, and who do you think I am? How dare you talk to me like that?”

Qin Jun stepped in front of the embarrassed butler, coldly staring at her, “The butler has worked for the Chu Family for thirty years and holds a much higher status in our home than you do. He calls you Miss Chu as a courtesy, but you really take yourself seriously as the Miss, showing you don’t appreciate the privilege.”

“…” Chu Xi bit her lip forcefully, almost wanting to tear him apart, and finally squeezed out a sentence, “You do indeed like Rong Yan.”

“I just don’t get it. What’s so great about her that everyone likes her? Couldn’t she be a reincarnated fox spirit? No matter what a man’s age is, they all want to protect her. You do too, and so does the butler. The butler is almost sixty, right? Does he also fancy that face?”

Her voice abruptly stopped because Rong Yan had slapped her across the face, leaving her speechless.

Chu Xi’s right cheek got slapped, and her ear buzzed incessantly. She angrily glared at Rong Yan, “Are you crazy?”

“No.”

“If you’re not crazy, how dare you hit me?”

Rong Yan slowly lowered her hand, staring into her eyes, “It’s not like it’s the first time. A slap is a slap. Haven’t you always asked me to hit you?”

“When did I ever ask you to hit me?”

Rong Yan raised her eyebrows, looking surprised, “You didn’t ask me to hit you? Then why were you barking at me? I thought you were possessed since you weren’t speaking human language and were barking at me like a mad dog. I figured I’d slap you to wake you up.”

“…” She actually called me a dog that doesn’t speak human language!

Rong Yan watched her face contort in anger and slightly smiled, “See, you’re not speaking human language again? That slap must have been effective, so I didn’t misunderstand.”

“Pft.” Qin Jun couldn’t help but laugh, the sternness in his chest dissipating greatly, especially seeing Chu Xi’s face turn livid without a word to retort. The satisfaction was indescribable!

Even the butler didn’t step in to mediate; he silently endorsed that Rong Yan’s slap was justified.

Chu Xi was so enraged she almost lost her mind. She gritted her teeth, glaring at Rong Yan with bloodshot eyes, her trembling fingers pointing at her, “You, you just wait. I will tell Mom everything you did to me at the hospital. She will see your true colors!”

“Feel free.”

The butler, unwilling to see Rong Yan suffer, righteously said, “I’ll also explain the whole situation to Madam.”

Qin Jun, his long legs straight and his handsome face stern, suddenly said, “I’ve just realized I haven’t driven out the rat that snuck in.”
