“Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo?”

Huo Jingshen, seated at the head of the conference table, held his phone in his distinctively slender and articulated fingers, seemingly frozen in place.

Ji Jie coughed twice, then stood up and walked over, “Mr. Huo.”

Huo Jingshen put his phone down.

His face was distinctly calm, as if it was someone else who had become distracted during the meeting.

“Mr. Huo, do you have any thoughts about the plan for the upcoming event?”

Huo Jingshen raised an eyelid slightly, his response seemingly unrelated to the question, “Why isn’t Xiuhuang here today?”

“Chu has an important date today.” Shi Huan adjusted his glasses, maintaining

his composure.

There was a small curl on Huo Jingshen’s lips.

The old Chu really was…

Untouchable.

“If Mr. Huo has any opinions regarding the plan, today might be a good chance to discuss with Bingo’s representative directly, since it’s our partner’s first time

joining us.”

Upon hearing that, the other company representatives at the meeting made discreet smiles.

Qiao Zixin, seated at the back, lifted her head and stuck out her chest.

Unfortunately, Huo Jingshen only nodded slightly, not even meeting her eyes.

He said, “Shi, your decision will be enough. Once we collaborate with

Huangyou, you can control the details.”

“Alright.”

After the meeting, Mr. Zhou, the representative from Bingo, enthusiastically suggested, “It’s almost noon, would Mr. Huo care to join us for lunch…

“I’m sorry, I have other important matters to attend to. Ji Jie, can you entertain

Mr. Zhou and Secretary Shi for me?”

“Sure, Mr. Huo.”

Although Mr. Zhou was disappointed, he quickly turned to Shi Huan, “Secretary

Shi, since Mr. Huo can’t make it, shall we…”

“Sorry, I also have important matters.”

Having said that, Shi Huan turned to his subordinates, “Xiaoliu, send a notice out that I’m going back to the office this afternoon for a meeting with the top management at 2pm. Have everyone prepare their speeches. The tax inspectors are coming at 3 o’clock. Ask the finance department to check the reporting documents. Xiaozhang, you will handle tonight’s dinner with Mr. Xu from Dunhuang and Kuangshi. Oh, and also send me a copy of the meeting notes for me to summarise on my way back and send to Chu.

Zhou was quick to ask, “Secretary Shi, didn’t you say Chu went on a date?”

Shi Huan nodded, “Chu prefers to work during his dates.”

Mr. Zhou:”…”

As they spoke, Shi Huan had already packed up his things, “Xiaoliu, Xiaozhang,

let’s go.”

“Alright, Secretary Shi.”

The three of them rushed off.

In the comer, Shen Bingbing clicked her tongue, “I thought I was committed, but Secretary Shi seems even more intense than I am, almost like he’s working himself to death. Zixin, Zixin?”

Qiao Zixin quickly came to her senses, “Huh?”

-Why do you seem so out of it?” Shen Bingbing looked at the doorway and couldn’t help but laugh, “Is it because Mr. Huo is too handsome that he’s stolen your soul?”

“Stop talking nonsense, he’s my sister’s husband.

“Oh?” Shen Bingbing paused, “Why didn’t you mention that earlier?”

“Well, you didn’t ask.”

“…” Shen Bingbing looked at her and suddenly asked, “Did you ask me to bring you here because of him?”

“No, stop making things up.”

Shen Bingbing couldn’t help but laugh.

After working in the industry for so many years, she’s seen all sorts of relationships between men and women. It’s given her a piercing insight.

From the moment she arrived at Huo’s company, Qiao Zixin’s eyes hadn’t left Huo Jingshen’s face!

An older sister interested in her younger sister’s husband?

Interesting.

She deliberately said, “Actually, men like Mr. Huo usually have a lot on their plate at home and also love to play outside. If you’re really interested in him, there will be plenty of opportunities to get closer. So how about this, a little later at lunch, I’ll mention you to Mr. Zhou and have you join me in managing this event.”

As expected, Qiao Zixin’s eyes lit up, “Really? But today is only my first day at work.”

Originally, because she quit her job suddenly, the magazine wasn’t willing to let her go. Even if she had to leave, she had to at least work a month in transition.

But upon hearing that Bingo and Huangyou were meeting at Huo’s company today, she couldn’t think of anything else. After forcing her editor to approve her resignation yesterday, she reported for work at Bingo today.

Shen Bingbing, the main planner of the event, can justify bringing a newcomer from her department to gain experience.

“Of course.” Shen Bingbing said, “Although you weren’t in this field before, writing news and writing copy are pretty similar. As an old classmate, I have faith in your abilities.”

Qiao Zixin was excited, “Then send me all the materials when we get back so I can familiarize myself with it quickly.”

“Alright.”

Everyone chatted and laughed as they left the conference room.

Reaching the underground parking garage shortly after exiting the elevator, they saw a black car slowly driving by.

“Wow, rich, handsome, tall, even his driving style looks attractive.” Shen Bingbing said exaggeratedly.

Qiao Zixin watched dreamily as Mr. Zhou’s voice reached her ears, “Mr. Huo is already taken. Didn’t you see that he was looking at his phone all through the meeting earlier? He must have been reading messages from his wife.

“Mr. Zhou, isn’t that a bit presumptuous?” Shen Bingbing flicked a flirtatious glance at him, “Could it be… the message was from a mistress?”

Mr. Zhou: “…”

He cleared his throat, “Alright, let’s get into the car and go eat. I’m starving.”

In the quiet reading room, Su Wanwan took a seat and flipped open an entertainment magazine, promptly sneezing.

“Achoo!”

The sneeze was rather loud, catching the attention of two or three students around her.

Su Wanwan was embarrassed.

Who was talking behind her back?
