In order to get close to Ning Fan, Huo Zhanyuan made a significant decision.
Security guard, a position that Huo Zhanyuan had always looked down upon. With his lofty aspirations and little skill, fitting the profile of a qualified wastrel, security guards were, in his opinion, nothing but lower-class people.
If it had been in the past, he would never have considered being a security guard. Even if he took a whimsical desire to play around and experience life, it wouldn't be at the Xu Corporation but rather at his elder sister Huo Qiuran's company.
Many people shared the same view. To the security staff within the security department, how could someone like Huo Zhanyuan come here to be a security guard? They had heard of him and even knew what this young man looked like.
However, Huo Zhanyuan's reputation was rather poor compared to that of Huo Qiuran; they were as different as heaven and earth.
"He's here to experience life and doesn't go to his sister's company?"
Many people had the same question.
It was too out of the ordinary, really too strange, for Huo Zhanyuan to come to the Xu Corporation's security department to be a guard.
At this moment, Ning Fan's feelings were also somewhat complicated. He had not expected Huo Zhanyuan to go to such lengths. Now, calling this young man thick-skinned was an understatement; he was dead set on becoming Ning Fan's shadow.
Ning Fan was impressed and finally understood what Huo Zhanyuan had meant by "on the way".
It truly was on the way, but during the trip, Huo Zhanyuan received a report from the human resources department.
Looking at the new uniform Huo Zhanyuan was wearing, and seeing him there, everything seemed out of place, no wonder Zhu Xuetao wasn't around this morning; it must have been because of Huo Zhanyuan that he had gone to the HR department.
As for Huo Zhanyuan coming here to be a security guard, due to Huo Qiuran's influence, a bit of attention was still warranted; the Xu Corporation wasn't just giving face to the Huo Family, but to Huo Qiuran specifically.
"Cough cough cough, quiet down, everyone, be quiet. Today is his first day of reporting for duty. Let's all be energetic and not leave a bad impression on him!"
Zhu Xuetao gave everyone a stern look. Seeing them in such a ruckus, it was time to settle down. They shouldn't let outsiders see them as a joke.
Yes, outsiders, as Huo Zhanyuan wouldn't be considered one of their own. And considering that he was Huo Qiuran's brother, the security department now somewhat represented the Xu Corporation and couldn't afford to let outsiders make a mockery of them.
After Zhu Xuetao's reminder, everyone finally realized this and immediately became more serious, each brimming with vigilance.
However, Huo Zhanyuan couldn't care less about them; he was here to get close to Ning Fan, and in his eyes, there was only Ning Fan.
In Ning Fan's eyes, Huo Zhanyuan was nothing but an annoying fly that wouldn't go away.
"Alright, work time, everyone to your posts. As for you, come with me."
After giving his instructions, some of the guards left the security department to go on duty, while Zhu Xuetao led Huo Zhanyuan over to Ning Fan.
Others might not be clear about Huo Zhanyuan's purpose here, but how could Zhu Xuetao not know?
Now in Jiangcheng, as the Shangguan Family faced downfall, the Huo Family got a breather, albeit only temporarily. Ning Fan severely injured the Shangguan Family, and naturally, the Huo Family now wanted to ingratiate themselves with Ning Fan and win him over.
Huo Zhanyuan had been standing outside the company building for several days, and Zhu Xuetao had noticed it, so who this young man was here for was no mystery.
Therefore, it was only fitting that this trouble be handed over to Ning Fan.
Zhu Xuetao took off his hat and looked at Ning Fan with a beaming smile, "Brother Ning, I'm handing Huo Zhanyuan over to you to take care of."
Huo Zhanyuan was delighted. Why was he here if not to get close to Ning Fan?
Now that Zhu Xuetao had given him the opportunity, Huo Zhanyuan couldn't be more eager.
Only, Ning Fan's expression turned sour. He opened his mouth wanting to say something, but Zhu Xuetao didn't give him the chance. After speaking, he turned his head and left the area.
Ning Fan's eyelids twitched as he watched him go. He certainly didn't want to deal with the trouble that was Huo Zhanyuan, especially knowing full well why Huo Zhanyuan was really here.
"No, no, no, just call me Ning Fan, we're not that close."
Ning Fan extended his hand, interrupting Huo Zhanyuan.
Huo Zhanyuan's face remained composed, still trying to ingratiate himself with Ning Fan, "We're all family here!"
"Who's family with you?"
"My sister is Huo Qiuran, and you're my sister's man. If I don't call you brother-in-law, what else should I call you?"
Why hadn't Ning Fan realized before that Huo Zhanyuan was so persuasive?
He was now curious about what Huo Zhanyuan had gone through to be able to do such unreasonable things.
As for what kind of person Huo Zhanyuan was, Ning Fan knew all too well.
But now, to please him, Huo Zhanyuan had gone to such lengths, which somewhat altered Ning Fan's perception of him, though he was still just as despicable.
Being able to come to Xu Corporation to work as a security guard, Huo Zhanyuan must have made a big decision. In the past, there's no way he would have done something .
"Look at you, driving a luxury car to work here, and as a security guard? Why don't you go deliver food instead?"
Ning Fan sneered, but it was of no use against Huo Zhanyuan's thick skin.
Huo Zhanyuan chuckled heh heh, behaving respectfully in front of Ning Fan and playing the grandchild, "That's because you're here!"
"Are you ever not annoying? Like I said, you have to go find your sister!"
"But my sister told me to come to you!"
Huo Zhanyuan suddenly couldn't speak because Huo Qiuran had never said such a thing. If she knew Huo Zhanyuan was actually harassing Ning Fan, she'd probably come running out to solve the problem for Ning Fan herself.
"Heh, it seems your sister doesn't know you're here bothering me."
"You're truly observant, brother-in-law!"
Being flattered by Huo Zhanyuan, Ning Fan couldn't feel happy at all.
At the same time, Ning Fan felt helpless. Huo Zhanyuan had been turned away by Huo Qiuran and was now turning to curry favor with Ning Fan, seeking a way in through him.
Regarding this, Ning Fan was quite clear. To be honest, Ning Fan didn't want to see Huo Zhanyuan's face and with just a word to Xu Ruolan, Huo Zhanyuan would definitely be kicked out of the company and blacklisted as well.
Ning Fan really wanted to do that, but he hesitated, considering that Huo Zhanyuan was Huo Qiuran's brother, so Ning Fan didn't want to be too harsh.
"How about this, I'll arrange a job for you."
"Great, great, just tell me what it is."
"Go watch the parking lot."
"I'll be resting upstairs."
