My Evil Genius Wife Chapter 40
Advertisement
A month later,
Xu Nuan stood in front of her vanity mirror and hummed one of her songs while brushing her hair. It's been days since she got out of the house. The last time she went out, she witnessed Qin Ju and Hao Mei making out, and that's when she finds out that they were cheating on her.
Even though she has dealt with them, she has gotten this new life, she can't just stay at home and rot while doing nothing. She needs to go out and meet some people to keep herself engaged.
She wore a pastel blue colored dress with matching heels and a sling bag. She put on a little makeup, which enhanced her hidden beauty and made her look youthful and refreshing.
She smiled and said," Hmm.. not bad. Even though Xu Nuan is not as pretty as the past me, however, she is unique in a good way." she vaguely complimented Xu Nuan's small yet cute stature.
Xu Nuan is not tall nor has a perfect figure as her past self. But she is pretty and has facial features which can make people attracted to her.
If she had dressed well and had taken care of herself, she would have passed Gu Xingren in terms of looks.
She last time checked herself in the mirror and left the house. Just as she exited the house, she looked at the locked house in front of her.
She frowned as she thought about how he hasn't come back to the house in the last month. She was patiently waiting for him to return and fulfill his promise. He has said that he will sponsor her meals, but she heard nothing back in the last month.
' How irresponsible' She huffed in frustration and entered into the elevator.

The elevator door, which was closed, opened again. Xu Nuan frowned and walked towards his unit.
" You deserve this." she kicked his door in annoyance and after being satisfied, she smoothed her dress and entered into the elevator again, while maintaining her poised elegance.
…..
After 20 minutes, she was standing in front of the Han Corporations. She looked at the huge building and people clad in formal clothes were coming out of the building. She checked the time and it was lunchtime.
" Very well" a sly smile appeared on her lips as she flipped her hair back and walked inside the company with her head held high and flashing an enchanting smile on her lips.
She walked to the reception and asked, "Can you tell me the way to the Presidential office?"
The receptionist standing there looked at Xu Nuan and was speechless seeing the way she asked about the way to the Presidential office.
She maintained a polite smile and asked, " Do you have an appointment?"
Xu Nuan shook her head and said, " I don't have an appointment but he knows me."
The secretary pursed her lips and said, " I am sorry Mam. You can't meet him without the appointment."
Xu Nuan looked at the receptionist and nodded. She can't expect her to let her go normally either. After all, Han Zihao is the president and not just any manager in the company.
" Well, then can you give him a call and tell him that the girl whom he had promised to treat to a meal was waiting downstairs? I would have called him, but my phone's battery died," she said while waving her phone in front of her.
She was indeed planning to call Feng Sheng upon reaching the office, but then she realized that she forgot to switch on when she put the phone on charging in the morning. That regret was real.

' Sigh'
The girl was caught off guard hearing the suggestive words of Xu Nuan. She has never seen the President with any girl before.She hesitated and was thinking of calling the Presidential office to relay this young girl's message when she heard a voice.
��� Who are you?" Xu Nuan frowned when she heard a feminie yet informal tone and turned around to see a girl wearing a white crop top with skinny jeans, and high heels.
The girl was wearing expensive brands from head to toe. Xu Nuan lazily leaned against the counter and said, "Miss, Do I know you?"
The girl looked at her menacingly and asked, " You don't deserve to know me. How do you know Brother Han? I have never seen you here before." the girl looked at her from up and down with her judging gaze.
The way the girl was calling Han Zihao, ' Brother Han', she does not seem like his real sister nor his girlfriend.
She doesn't believe that he has a girlfriend because of the way that man acts, he seems like he has no experience with girls. Which girl can handle his damn sharp tongue?
Xu Nuan massaged her temples and said, " I have never seen you either before. So I don't think I am obliged to tell you how I know Mr. Han."
She ignored the girl and turned to the receptionist, " Will you please relay my message to him?"
The receptionist hesitated to see Zhu Ai's glare. She has come to the office a few times in the last month and that too, accompanied by the mother of Mr. Han. Everyone in the office is talking about the possibility that Zhu Ai might become their lady boss.
However, she was now stuck between a girl who claimed herself to be connected with Mr. Han and Zhu Ai might be their future lady boss.
Zhu Ai smirked seeing the receptionist's hesitation and looked at Xu Nuan with a smug smile.
Xu Nuan scoffed seeing the way she was acting. Staying in the entertainment industry, she knows this kind of smug smile very well.
" Hah! Miss. whatever you are, I am sorry but I have to burst your imaginary bubble. I am not your competitor in love, because you don't deserve to be one." Xu Nuan's smile became cold as she said her last words.
She prefers to use words then communicating through those smug, sarcastic smiles. She knows what that stupid girl was thinking and why she was acting strangely towards her.
Zhu Ai's smile froze when she heard Xu Nuan's words. The girl clearly looked younger and has so much attitude.
" Hah!" she scoffed and fanned herself with her hand as she was speechless at Xu Nuan's shamelessness.
However, before she could say anything, she saw a familiar figure existing from the presidential elevator. Her lips curled up and she was about to say something when she heard the person say, " Ms. Gu?"

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!
