Of all the people, Yang Wenchang was the first to know that Huo Jinyao was married. However, he was still surprised to see his boss coming with his wife.
“Mr. Huo.”
Since the moment Su Qingsang entered the office building of Tianyu Company, she was welcomed by astonished expressions of people who looked as if they had seen a ghost.
It was natural for the staff who did not know her, but even Yang Wenchang was astonished.
She couldn’t help but look at Huo Jinyao, thinking that he must have been annoyingly gruff or demanding to his employees.
Huo Jinyao said something to Yang Wenchang and turned around to find Su Qingsang in a daze.
“What is it?”
“Nothing.” Su Qingsang looked at him and said, “Huo Jinyao, are you very—”
“What?”
“Very strict with your workers? Otherwise, why would they all look like they had seen an unnatural apparition?”
“What are you talking about?” Huo Jinyao frowned. “Why would I be gruff?”
“How do I know?” You should ask yourself.
“This is the first time they’ve seen me bring a woman here.” Huo Jinyao squeezed her hand and said, “After you come here a few more times, they won’t be surprised.”
“Why would I come to your office so often?”
Su Qingsang rubbed her forehead. This was getting confusing.
“To keep me company.”
“You’re not a child.” This big adult needed someone to keep him company? Su Qingsang was speechless.
“You can treat me like a child. I don’t mind.”
He was so serious that Su Qingsang almost choked. “You? A child?” It was the last epithet she would have chosen to describe her husband. Just as she was about to joke about it, something occurred to her. She straightened up and looked at Huo Jinyao warily.
“You’re not planning to refrain from going back to Lin City this time, are you?”
“Why?”
“Just tell me, yes or no.”
There was nervousness in her eyes, which made Huo Jinyao want to tease her.
“Yes. I’ve been quite busy with the company business recently. I don’t think I can go back so soon. Didn’t you meet Cheng Xianyun yesterday? His family runs hospitals. Wouldn’t it be good to ask him to arrange a position in one of his hospitals for you?
“No, it wouldn’t.”
Su Qingsang refused him without any hesitation, a little abruptly. “I am not going to quit my job, and you promised me that we just came to Rong City for a few days,” she said.
Even if she would really stay in Rong City, it would be after she got all the things done properly, such as the resignation and remaining work she still had at the hospital. She had been thinking about getting a master’s degree in medicine from the University of Lin City. If she came to Rong City, she should enter another university, meaning she would have more work to do. Su Qingsang needed her husband to give her some time to get all this done.
“Would you have come back with me if I had told you in advance?” Huo Jinyao took her hand and looked at her with a teasing expression. “Now that we are back, it’s up to me. It’s not so easy for you to leave now,” he said, only half-joking.
“How could you do that?” Su Qingsang stood up, looking anxious. “How could you lie to me?”
“How did I lie to you?” Huo Jinyao hadn’t expected her to be so angry, and he even forgot he was joking.
“Of course you did!” After Su Qingsang came, unexpected things happened one by one.
And now, before she was even ready, Huo Jinyao did this without any discussion with her.
