Su Qingsang didn’t want Huo Jinyao to continue on this topic, so she started talking about something new.
“By the way, your uncle is from a remarkably high-achieving family. Why did he choose to do such a dangerous thing?”
“If he hadn’t done it, how could he have been promoted to senior colonel within just a short period?”
Huo Jinyao understood Zhang Yichen and they had a good relationship. He respected Zhang Yichen’s choice.
Huo Jinyao’s great uncle was already commander. If Zhang Yichen wished to live off his parents, that would not be a problem.
However, Zhang Yichen was ambitious. He had to make more effort than others to prove that he didn’t achieve his success through his family connections.
“And, why do you say ‘your uncle’? Isn’t my uncle also your uncle?”
Su Qingsnag put out her tongue at him. She couldn’t say the answer, that Zhang Yichen looked too young to be thought of as a senior family member.
Huo Jinyao suddenly squinted his eyes, turning her body and looking right at her face.
“You just said that my uncle saw you in the hot spring——”
Since she was in the hot spring, she couldn’t have been wearing any clothes, is it?
Huo Jinyao’s face was so close to her that his nose was almost touching hers. Su Qingsang blinked, staring at Huo Jinyao’s deep-set eyes.
“That was an accident.”
Accident? Huo Jinyao put his hands on her shoulder and asked, “he saw you naked?”
Su Qingsnag not only sensed a tone of jealousy in his voice but also detected danger in it.
Looking at his magnified face in her eyes, she shook her head instinctively. “No, I was wearing a swimming suit.”
“What kind of swimming suit? A one-piece swimming suit? Or a bikini?”
Huo Jinyao spoke the last word very lightly, but his breath was warm, mingled with a refreshing mint flavor.
Su Qingsang felt her face turning red slowly. “B…Bikini.”
Huo Jinyao narrowed his eyes, gazing at Su Qingsang’s face. He suddenly pulled her up and took her to the closet.
Then he leaned with half his body against the door, staring at her. Standing still, Su Qingsang didn’t get what he was trying to do and blinked her eyes.
“Hurry.” His eyes were earnest like he couldn’t wait for it.
“What?”
“Get your bikini and put it on.”
Before she knew what Huo Jinyao meant, Huo Jinyao reminded her, “speaking of that, I have never seen you wear a bikini.”
Previously, she had gone to Japan and stayed in a hot spring hotel. Huo Jinyao was supposed to go with her but didn’t because of his work.
This time she went to the hot spring salon with Shi Mengwan. Huo Jinyao thought it would be inconvenient for them if he were present, so he didn’t go either.
So he had never seen what Su Qingsang looked like in a bikini.
“Huo Jinyao,” said Su Qingsang, ignoring him. She passed him and walked outside. Huo Jinyao hugged her around her waist.
He turned her around, easily putting her body on the door of the closet.
“You could find the bikini and wear it by yourself, or I could do it for you. Either way.”
“I chose neither of them,” said Su Qingsang, shaking her head. Though she felt herself turning all red, she refused to compromise. “I am tired. I’m going to bed.”
Why should she wear a bikini for him when she was going to sleep? He was out of his mind, and she refused to be crazy with him.
Huo Jinyao nodded. “It looks like you prefer I do it for you——”
When he spoke, he tightened his hands around her waist, not allowing her to release herself from his arms.
Huo Jinyao started searching in her closet. She didn’t bring lots of luggage to Rong City.
In her closet, almost all the clothes were purchased later from his orders for her. Among them, there were some swimming suits also, since the Huo Mansion had a swimming pool.
Huo Jinyao rummaged through her clothes and found several swimming suits, in all kinds of colors and styles.
“How about this one?” Huo Jinyao Picked up a pink swimming suit and looked up and down at Su Qingsang. “Come on, put it on.”
“Huo Jinyao, that’s enough.” She was not going to swim and didn’t need to wear it.
“Fine. If you are unwilling, I am going to do it for you.”
Huo Jinyao was not joking with her. He meant it.
How could Su Qingsang let him do it? She took a big step back and said, “no way. I’ll do it myself.”
With a hand gesture that indicated “please”, Huo Jinyao stared at Su Qingsang, smiling, and his eyes glowing.
Su Qingsang felt awkward from his stare, her eyes resting on the swimming suit in his hand. Clenching her teeth, she took it from his hand.
She was in her nightwear right now. To put on the bikini, she had to take it off.
It was not like she had never taken off her clothes in front of Huo Jinyao before, but most of the time, Huo Jinyao was the one who undressed her.
In actuality, this was her first time taking the initiative.
Thinking about it, Su Qingsang started to feel more awkward. She felt her knees going weak.
Huo Jinyao kept staring at her, sparks flashing in his eyes.
When she took off her pajama, the spark in his eyes was fueled into flames. Su Qingsang suddenly felt thirsty.
She let her pajama slide onto the ground and put on the bikini with slightly trembling hands.
She didn’t dress quickly. Being stared by someone – even though that person was her husband who she had slept with so many times – she still felt shy.
Looking at Su Qingsang in a bikini, the flame in Huo Jinyao’s eyes now turned into a blazing fire.
“…” Su Qingsang tied the straps behind her back, looked up, and found Huo Jinyao staring at her with great intensity.
She suddenly felt like she didn’t know where to put her hands and feet. She couldn’t help but pull herself back, touching the closet door behind her.
Huo Jinyao took a step forward. His eyes were fixed on her face, blazed with eagerness.
“Now you have seen me in a bikini.” Su Qingsang’s voice was a little bit more coarse this time. She blinked, moving sideways and said, “excuse me, I’ll go to sleep.”
Now, Huo Jinyao was behaving like a big bad wolf staring at a rabbit, his eyes blazing. How could he let her go now?
“Honey,” he called. With one hand by her neck, his big body gave her nowhere to hide. “Did you let Zhang Yichen see you like this?”
Why, did he feel like punch Zhang Yichen?
He could have hidden anywhere. Why did he have to hide at the place where Su Qingsang was enjoying the hot spring? It got on his nerves.
“I said it. It was an accident.”
Yes, it was an accident. But Huo Jinyao felt uncomfortable at the thought of Zhang Yichen watching Su Qingsang in this very revealing outfit.
Of course, he trusted Zhang Yihcen. He was from the army, a man of fortitude and eminent virtue.
He once heard a story from his great-aunt about how a new female recruit had an eye on Zhang Yichen.
She had shown Zhang Yichen around every day, but he wasn’t impressed at all. Later, out of nowhere, she had the guts to go into Zhang Yichen’s room and undress in front of him. She wanted to seduce him into being with her.
Zhang Yichen ignored her move and ruthlessly threw her out.
Certainly, when he had done that, he still considered her dignity, so he threw her clothes out as well.
The female recruit hurried to put on her clothes, but tongues were wagging all over the place. In the end, she was removed, or rather, discharged.
These kinds of incidents happened to Zhang Yichen a lot. In the past years, he had focused only on building his career and cared little about his private life.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been in his thirties but not have a girlfriend, adamant about not wanting to get married.
The moment Huo Jinyao persuaded himself, his eyes rested on Su Qingsang’s chest. He had a tickle in his throat.
How could these ordinary girls be compared to Su Qingsang? Su Qingsang was special; she was different from them.
Huo Jinyao lowered his head and bit her lip, not very gently. Su Qingsang felt a slight pain and moaned softly.
In Huo Jinyao’s ears, her moan was the fuel to the fire in his eyes.
On the door of the closet, he pressed her body, kissing her deeply.
With her back leaning against the closet door, Su Qingsang felt herself freezing. She was cold, so she held Huo Jinyao tightly with her hands, trying to move towards Huo Jinyao.
Su Qingsang was behaving like she was throwing herself towards Huo Jinyao. Huo Jinyao narrowed his eyes, lifting her.
The second Su Qingsang was lifted off the ground she was scared, holding his neck tightly with her hands.
Huo Jinyao stared at the white breasts in front of him, his eyes immediately darkening.
His face was touching her neck, and his voice seemed to be coming from his nose. “Honey, you are mine.”
Su Qingsang, her body, every part of her, belonged to him. He didn’t want any other man to have anything to do with his wife.
Even if that man was his uncle.
…
Huo Jinyao looked at Yang Wenchang in front of him, his eyes half narrowed.
“What are you saying?”
“He Family’s lady, He Xuanyao, came to work here yesterday.”
“Who agreed to that?”
“Not me.” Yang Wenchang was afraid of Huo Jinyao attributing it to him. “The president arranged it.”
“My dad?”
“Yes,” Observing Huo Jinyao’s face, Yang Wenchang opened his mouth carefully. “They meant for her to her take the position of Zhang Yang, but I refused. Then she said it herself that she could work in the marketing department, so we allowed it.”
“She said she was going to the marketing department, and you agreed to let her go?” Huo Jinyao raised his eyebrows. His eyes were sharp.
Again, Yang Wenchang lowered his head and wore a guilty look. “Well, it was a direct order from the president.”
Huo Jinyao didn’t speak. The arrangement was not Huo Mingguang’s plan, but Liu Tongjia’s.
“All right. She wanted to stay in the marketing department, right? Starting tomorrow, let her take over the sales from Zhang, in the marketing department. She will do exactly how Zhang does it.”
Yang Wenchang’s eyes brightened. What a smart move! “Mr. Huo, why didn’t I think of that?”
“You thought that a princess has come to the corporation, and we need to serve her?”
Yang Wenchang had worked with Huo Jinyao for many years. They had a good rapport. However, sometimes, Yang Wenchang tended to follow the orders from Huo Mingguang. He was the president, after all.
Huo Jinyao understood Yang Wenchang’s dilemma, but he didn’t want to compromise.
“Tell them. Zhang should teach his apprentice seriously, and Ms. He should also take it seriously and learn how we do things at Tianyu Group.”
