“Why?
“Probably had enough of being a mayor and wanted to climb upwards I suppose…” Lin Yazhi despaired, “I was afraid of something like this, so I went to work as soon as I could and thought this sort of arranged marriage was beyond me now!”
“If the partner is alright, it’s not that bad. You can meet the person first, who knows he might be the right one.”
“Pffft, pfftt, that’s not the point, you know who he wants me to get married to?” Lin Yazhi’s eyes widened as she got to this point, “Bis Sis Zhaoyang, you know him!”
Lu Zhaoyang pondered for a bit and realized that their mutual acquaintance were rather many. She could not tell who it was.
“It’s the CEO!!! My dad is nuts!” Lin Yazhi pointed to the wall as if her father was there.
“…Huo Yunting?” Lu Zhaoyang sniggered and nodded in agreement, “That is indeed madness, remember to feed him his medication.”
She continued to look at the monitor and continued without looking away, “He meant to rope in Thunderbolt Corp?”
“Probably, he even gave me two candidates, one is the CEO, another is Xiangyuan Corp’s Xiang Jinxi. Forget about the CEO, even with a billion dollars I won’t dare to seduce him, as for Xiang Jinxi…”
She never dared to have that sort of thought!
That was like looking for trouble!
The target of her marriage was someone in opposition to their company and that means she would need to leave Thunderbolt. Nope, she won’t be leaving her hard earned position here just for some stranger!
“Uncle’s ambition sure is big and based on what I know Xiang Jinxi had no girlfriend. As for Huo Yunting, that’s impossible.”
He was already a married man and her husband.
“Big Sis Zhaoyang, I swear, I never ever thought of the CEO! I’m trapped, why can’t he let my brother marry the daughter of a governor or something, that’ll be much more useful than this! Ahhh, I’m going crazy, CRAZY!”
She shook her head as her hair was messed up in a fit of frustration. “Big Sis Zhaoyang, give me an idea wouldn’t you?”
“It’s not like I don’t have one,” Lu Zhaoyang looked up, as her brow raised playfully, “But that requires a certain person to agree.”
“What idea?” Lin Yazhi bend forward agitatedly.
“Well, just bring a boyfriend back home, right? Isn’t Huo Li a good candidate? He’s Huo Yunting’s special assistant, and has the backing of the Thunderbolt Corp, the rest…you can connect the dots right?”
“Ugh….what should I do?”
Lu Zhaoyang arranged the documents on the table before casting a disdainful glance.
“Huo Yunting having a son is already news, you can tell your dad there’s no way in hell that’ll work, as for Xiang Jinxi, you can say that he has a girlfriend, Qiu Jin coincidentally is cooperating with him, just cook up a story or something.”
“But…” She pursed her lips, “What if Huo Li doesn’t agree to help?”
“No way, he’ll definitely help. Go look for him now, you can treat him for lunch.”
From what she heard from Huo Yunting, she discerned that Huo Li probably has a thing for Lin Yazhi. Now that there’s such a good opportunity, why wouldn’t he help?
She stood up to look for Huo Yunting for lunch as she looked at the clock.
Lin Yazhi too asked Huo Li out for lunch and never though that the moment she said she’ll be treating him, he agreed to it almost immediately.
Over at an high-end western restaurant, the atmosphere was elegant as the melody of the piano rang in the air.
Huo Li looked at her suspiciously and asked, “Something’s not right today, what’re you up to?”
