“In that case, I’ll spend the rest of my life with you.” Huo Xishen continued, “I do want to live with you for the rest of my life.”
They would first start by moving into a home that really belonged to them.
“Tsk… there are so many hunks out there. Tang Qing and Zhuang Heng aren’t too bad. Recently, Fu Borong extended an olive branch to me too. Why should I give up the entire sea for a lousy fish like you?”
Huo Xishen replied shamelessly, “Because you only like lousy fishes, Darling.”
He had successfully cracked Yan Jinyi up.
Assistant Wen discovered that after after the two of them went to the cemetery, the atmosphere between them did not become somber, but rather, they had become a lot more affectionate!
‘Look, they really came back hand-in-hand!”
‘Oh! Second Young Mistress Huo actually took away the leaf that fell on Mr. Huo’s shoulder!’
After getting inside the car, Yan Jinyi discovered that Assistant Wen had been staring at Huo Xishen with envy.
“Assistant Wen?” she waved her hand.
“Yes, Second Young Mistress Huo?”
“I heard that you went on a blind date not long ago, how did it go?”
Assistant Wen glanced at Huo Xishen with some sorrow before answering, “It didn’t work out.”
“Huh? Is it because the woman you met wasn’t good enough? Quickly tell me what happened then!”
Yan Jinyi began to get really gossipy. Ever since she went on a blind date with Tan Sangsang, she felt that blind dates were really fun.
The look in Assistant Wen’s eyes became even more resentful. “Np, the woman is great. She graduated from a famous university, is pretty, and very sensible. She’s the best candidate for marriage.”
Yan Jinyi asked in surprise, “Why didn’t it work out then?”
‘As the personal assistant of the president of Huo Group, he should at least be considered a gold-collar worker, right?’
‘No, I mean diamond-collared!’
‘His annual salary and pension are high, and he’s quite good-looking too. Is the woman blind? He’s a great catch.’
“She doesn’t like that I’m too busy and she thinks that I love work more than anything so she’s worried that I might neglect her after we get married.”
It all started out well, until he suddenly received a call from his boss.
In fact, it was just a small matter but it could not be delayed.
Yan Jinyi nudged Huo Xishen with her elbow and said, “You can’t be too harsh with your subordinate. You only care about getting married yourself but what about your employee?”
Huo Xishen was in a good mood today. He pursed his lips and asked, “What do you think we should do then, Darling?”
“Is dating between co-workers prohibited in your company?”
“No.”
‘Wow, it’s not prohibited and yet, no one dares to get into relationships. At the very least, they don’t dare to date openly…’
He wouldn’t care once they were outside the company.
Yan Jinyi made a rather constructive suggestion. “I think we can hold an annual matchmaking event for our employees who are still single, and even set a rule that those who hit the couples’ quota can enjoy some benefits. It’s up to you to decide what the benefits are.”
Huo Xishen eyes lit up a little. “Darling, you are indeed very surprising sometimes.”
Yan Jinyi dejected, think back in the black cloud fortress, in order to help the young brothers off the single she is racking her brains!
Assistant Wen thought, ‘I finally get a chance to get a girlfriend! Once I’m no longer a singleton, I must hang Second Young Mistress Huo’s photo in the living room and worship her. When my child is born, I must kneel thrice and kowtow to her nine times a day!’
By the time they returned to the Huo family manor,it was already late at night. They thought that everyone was asleep, but as soon as they stepped through the door, they saw Huo Zihang sitting on the sofa.
He was wrapped in a white bathrobe, his hair as messy as a bird’s nest. He was resting his phone on his knee, and the screen was lit up.
The lights were off and the only light source was his phone screen so he looked like a ghost.
Yan Jinyi was startled.. “Huo Zihang do you have a death wish? Are you itching for a beating with the feather duster?”
