Huo Mian felt her heart skip a beat. She moistened her throat; the truth was, Mo Xue’er’s question made her feel guilty.
But what was she feeling so guilty about...
"I think... it’s because I’m his sister." Huo Mian forced an answer out of her mouth.
"Haha... how is that possible? Huo Yanyan is his sister too, but the way he treats you is so different from the way he treats her..." Mo Xue’er’s expression became complicated.
"Or maybe it’s because I’m on his side. You should know that the Huo Family’s civil war has long begun, and I... have actually decided to help him."
"Oh yeah? Maybe that’s the case, but never mind that, I’m okay with anything. Anyways... not leaving has its benefits. GK is a conglomerate, so I know I will have a bright future here."
"For sure."
After her conversation with Mo Xue’er, a lot was going on in Huo Mian’s head...
Mo Xue’er was willing to change her entire future career path just because Huo Siqian asked her to do so...
Huo Siqian used his super awesome resources just to get her to stay at the Huo Family’s mansion for one night. What did he want?
An answer seemed to form at the back of her mind...
However, Huo Mian didn’t want to even think about it, because it was preposterous...
Maybe they weren’t related, technically they were still siblings. Could it be that Huo Siqian was...?
"Mrs. Qin..." Yang interrupted her thoughts.
"Yeah?"
"The president told me to ask you to go downstairs, he’s waiting for you there."
"Okay." Huo Mian nodded her head and turned around to head downstairs...
Everyone at the company heard about Mrs. Qin’s vigorous efforts to turn the situation this morning...
All the employees were talking about what happened...
Although Qin Chu had yet to announce who Huo Mian was, everyone pretty much knew what was going on.
On her way down, the employees all happily greeted Huo Mian.
"Hi, Young Madam."
"Good afternoon, Young Madam."
"Young Madam."
Huo Mian nodded at them as they greeted her, and as she arrived by the elevators, she saw a familiar face...
This was the man who hit on her at Seductive Fox and gave her his business card. He even gloated that he worked at GK.
If Huo Mian’s memories served her right, his name was Wang Tao.
As for Wang Tao, he was scared half to death upon seeing Huo Mian.
With him was a male colleague from the same department...
"Hi, Young Madam." That colleague immediately greeted her.
Feeling awkward, Wang Tao looked down and said, "Hi, Young Madam."
Huo Mian smiled at him. "Do you like working here?"
Startled, Wang Tao immediately nodded and replied, "Yes, it’s great."
"That’s good. Keep up the good work." Then, the elevator doors opened.
Huo Mian walked into it, leaving Wang Tao scared out his shell...
After Huo Mian left, he was still recovering from his fright...
"Huh, Wang Tao, how do you know the young madam?" his colleague asked him.
"I don’t." Wang Tao immediately denied it.
"Why would she ask you then?"
"It’s probably... just a coincidence," Wang Tao replied guiltily.
The one thing that he regretted most in his life was hitting on her at the bar...
As long as Huo Mian said the word, he could be fired at any time. By then, the job that he had worked so hard and so long to maintain would have disappeared.
But Mrs. Qin hadn’t yet... this somewhat comforted him.
He swore that he would never hit on girls at a bar, ever again, because you never know who you were talking to.
When Huo Mian arrived downstairs, she saw Qin Chu’s Maybach parked outside the entrance.
"Honey, where are we going?"
"Get on first, I’ll ask Yang to drive your car home."
"Sounds good." Huo Mian smiled as she opened the passenger door and got on.
"Honey... do you want to go to Yunding Mountain this weekend?" Qin Chu asked her as he drove.
"Not this weekend," Huo Mian immediately refused.
"Why not?" Confused, Qin Chu tilted his head to look at her.
