94 Chapter 94 The He Family's Young Mistress
"You've heard just now, I told the Su Family that you are my wife," He Jingyao said with a smile.
Su Zixi nodded. Indeed, he had said it not just once.
But he probably said that just to prevent Su Guo'an and Su Lianxi from harboring any ideas about her, right?
Su Zixi looked at him, puzzled.
"However, I am an honest person, and I never lie," He Jingyao said, his gaze heavy with meaning.
Su Zixi was completely befuddled.
Just then, her phone began to ring insistently.
Su Zixi fumbled to take out her phone and saw that it was a call from Shen Yushan; she glanced at He Jingyao to signal that she needed to answer.
The man nodded with a smile.
As soon as Su Zixi answered the call with a "hello," Shen Yushan's voice burst out from the other end, "Zhixi! What's going on? When did you become the Young Mistress of the He Family?"
"What?" Su Zixi was completely flustered.
"The official account of HI Group just released an announcement, clearly stating that you are the Young Mistress of the He Family, the wife of the current CEO of HI Group, Mr. He Jingyao! My God, is this true? Do you have any idea how the internet is blowing up right now? Weren't there rumors before saying someone insinuated investors through underhanded issues was you? Now with this announcement, no one believes that rumor anymore! Zhixi, is it really true? When did you become the Young Mistress of the He Family?" Shen Yushan fired off a barrage of questions.
Su Zixi's mind buzzed, and she felt a bit dizzy.
"Wait... I'll explain later," she then hung up the phone and glared at a certain man.
"What's wrong?" He Jingyao looked at her with an innocent smile.
Su Zixi took a deep breath, "You... you made an announcement that I am your wife."
"Oh, I did it to clear your name as quickly as possible, didn't I?" the man's smile was impeccable, "Now no one will doubt you."
"But... but..." Su Zixi clutched her phone tightly, unable to believe how much this news would impact her life.
How would her classmates treat her when she returned to school?
Su Zixi wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Alright, let's return to the question we were discussing earlier," He Jingyao leaned casually against the back of his chair, his tone nonchalant, "Since everyone thinks you're my wife, do you think we need to go through a certain procedure?"
Su Zixi was speechless.
"As an international top-tier company, credibility is of the utmost importance to HI Group. Since I've already said you're my wife, I'm sorry, but I must make that a reality," He Jingyao looked troubled, "So, I need your help."
Su Zixi's brain had turned to mush.
However, she had grasped the crucial point at least.
"So, what you mean is, you want me to marry you and make the title of the Young Mistress of the He Family official?" Su Zixi said, her face still showing hesitation.
"Exactly," He Jingyao smiled, "You're really smart."
"But I... I..." Su Zixi wanted to cry without tears, "How can it be ?"
He Jingyao wrapped his arm around her waist and leaned in to blow a breath on her neck, "Who just said that they would help unconditionally if they could?"
"This is different... this 'help,' I can't give!" Su Zixi quickly shrank back and said with flushed cheeks.
