The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 129

"Don't be angry, she's just doing her job," Rong Dai said lightly, but she was unhappy inside.

There were still many problems between her and Huo Shao Ting, and they still needed time to get used to each other.

But this had nothing to do with outsiders. She was still Huo Shao Ting's wife now, and these young ladies were trying to climb up.

If this was her past life, her upbringing would not have allowed her to reject her husband taking concubines.

In her past life, those imperial consorts and concubines in the emperor's harem were all handled by her as the empress.

She had also thought about being able to obtain a love like her father and mother, with musical harmony for a lifetime.

But in her past life, her father had endured tremendous pressure for her mother, after all, it was very normal for men to have three wives and four concubines at that time.

But it was different here.

Reborn again, she just wanted to do things according to her own heart, especially in emotional matters. She could not tolerate any flaws, otherwise she would not have been so contradictory and tangled before, and could have directly been with Huo Shao Ting in the original host's identity.

But it seemed that no matter if it was her past life or this life, it was unavoidable for her to personally pinch peach blossoms.

However, pinching peach blossoms also had its principles and methods.

Doing things recklessly out of temper like little sister, although effective, would make herself not look good as well.

"Sister-in-law, how can you not be angry at all?" Huo Mei Shu was extremely angry. She could see what ideas that female assistant had.

Rong Dai smiled lightly, but signaled her to sit down, and said gently, "It's not worth getting angry over such a trivial matter."

"How can this be a trivial matter? Which company's female assistant would dress up so coquettishly? Is she here to work or to seduce my brother?"

The little sister was furious!

Rong Dai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. With the little sister’s personality, if she had lived in her past life, she could only stay in the harem for half a month at most, and would likely perish prematurely.

"Since your brother hired her in, it shows that she must have extraordinary talents. Judging only by her looks, it would be too shallow if she could get into the Huo family. I believe your brother is not that kind of person with bad judgement."

"If your brother really likes her, I won't object either."

Huo Mei Shu immediately glared with wide eyes, looking at her nervously and incredulously, "Sister-in-law! Although these things happen frequently in prestigious families, my brother is definitely not that kind of person! And our family definitely does not allow it either!"

"Listen to me first," Rong Dai said very helplessly.

"If she is willing to be a nameless concubine, give birth to children for Shao Ting, and your brother is also willing, I won't object either."

"I’ll just be the proper wife, but the affection between husband and wife will end there. Believe it or not, as long as your brother gives the word, I can even personally select for him."

Rong Dai’s voice was not loud, but she was sure it could be heard by the people outside the reception room.

"Giving birth ruins even the most delicate figures, and giving birth is an extremely painful thing. If someone is willing to complete this for me, I would be overjoyed to get a child for free, wouldn’t that be great? And they would all have to call me mother."

Huo Mei Shu held her forehead, "Sister-in-law, let me calm down first."

She really didn't expect her sister-in-law to have such an open mindset, and could even select concubines for her brother! And raise the concubines' children!

Was sister-in-law thinking of opening her own Huo family kindergarten and being the principal herself?

"Sister-in-law, this is not the Qing Dynasty! Our family does not allow this. If my brother wrongs you first, no matter how good he is to us, I will definitely stand by your side."

After taking a few deep breaths, Huo Mei Shu looked at her very seriously and said.

Rong Dai retracted her side glance, with a hint of a smile on her face.

"Of course I know this is not the Qing Dynasty. And if such things really happen, I will definitely divorce your brother."

"It's already not easy being a woman in this world, why should I wrong myself to please a man who has no heart for me?"

She smiled lightly and patted the little sister's hand. She didn't expect the little sister to say such words.

"And those words just now were meant for people outside to hear."

She gestured with her eyes to the reception room door. That female assistant had been eavesdropping outside just now.

"Sister-in-law, you mean someone was eavesdropping outside the door just now?!"

Huo Mei Shu immediately widened her eyes, with flames jumping in them!

Rong Dai nodded, then opened the packed lunch box, which contained pastries made by the two of them this morning.

"Eat some sweets, it will improve your mood. This is just a trivial matter. If you get so worked up over the tricks of a small assistant like this, won't you be annoyed to death in the future?"

Huo Mei Shu started eating the pastries, nodding, but still very angry in her heart!

That female assistant must be fired no matter what!

"I'm going to the restroom, will be right back."

Rong Dai had drunk a lot of water this morning, and now had to pee urgently, so she said.

Huo Mei Shu had originally wanted to accompany her, but Rong Dai did not have this habit, so she went out herself.

The CEO office floor was very large. Because it could not be close to Huo Shao Ting's office area, there was also a reception room here, so there was a restroom for employees and customers.

Rong Dai really had to go urgently, so she went into the employee restroom.

She had just finished, when she heard the sound of high heels approaching. Rong Dai did not recognize anyone in this company, so she thought to wait in the restroom for the person to leave before going out, to avoid awkwardness.

The person coming in was talking on the phone, obviously very assured of the environment here.

Rong Dai couldn't help but be gossipy, pricking up her ears to listen carefully. Hearing the voice, she knew it was the female assistant from before.

"Lin Jing, your sister-in-law doesn't seem difficult to deal with either! I even heard her say she could tolerate Huo Shao Ting having three wives and four concubines! I really can't understand how you could suffer a loss!"

The female assistant said while putting on makeup in front of the mirror.

Rong Dai frowned as soon as she heard this.

Lin Jing?

Was it Huo Linjing?

She took out her phone and turned on the recording. She found that the recording and video functions on modern phones were what she liked very much.

Ironclad evidence!

She could not record or hear what Huo Linjing said on the phone, but every word from the female assistant was recorded without omission, and also heard clearly by Rong Dai.

Her face immediately turned cold.

These despicable tricks were really impressive. Arranging a woman for her cousin brother, and wanting to interfere in the Huo family business finances, was Huo Linjing crazy for Wen Runlin?

She did not stop recording, putting her phone in her pocket. After tidying up a bit, she came out of the restroom.

The female assistant was putting on lipstick, with one hand still on the phone. Seeing her come out, her face instantly stiffened, and the expression on her face cracked like a spider web.

Rong Dai's expression was normal, and she went to the sink to wash her hands as if nothing had happened. She looked up at the mirror and could see clearly any change in the female assistant's expression.

"Next time you want to gossip in a place like the restroom, I suggest you check each stall first, or it'll end up like today."
