As far as the eye can see, towering high-rise buildings form a reinforced concrete forest in the city.
Luxury cars parked here are nothing unusual.
When the license plate number, all "8", appeared, it attracted the attention of many white-collar workers around who were in a hurry to go to work.
Even in technology districts where many group bosses gather, such license plates are rare. What they represent is not only strong financial resources, but also a status symbol.
Gu Anan unbuckled his seat belt and said, "Mr. Huo, let's meet again later."
She turned around to get out of the car, but was stopped by the man.
"etc."
As soon as Gu Anan turned around, the man's tall figure leaned towards her. The scent of cedar mixed with his body was so strong and majestic that she dared not move for a while and bit her lip.
Huo Siting lowered his eyes, and lightly traced his rough fingertips across her tightly pursed lips, as if he was lighting a fire, domineeringly, but with a bit of understatement and casualness.
"My lip makeup is a little stained, do you want to touch it up?"
Gu Anan didn't expect that he was stunned for a moment because of this matter, "What?!"
Only then did she realize that it was probably because she was too nervous around Huo Siting and always bit her lip unconsciously.
It would be okay if I didn't apply lipstick, but after applying a light layer, mottled marks appeared.
She was a little embarrassed and quickly took off her lip makeup. When she was about to put it on again, Huo Siting spoke from the side again.
"Actually, it would be more suitable if you don't wear lipstick."
Gu Anan usually doesn't like to wear lipstick. Her lip color is naturally pink and tender. Applying only a layer of light-colored lip gloss is the icing on the cake. Heavy lipstick will only cover up her own advantages.
But she shook her head, "No, you don't need to apply it normally, but today you must have enough momentum."
Today's Hua'an Group is in turmoil.
Even before her mother died, her biological father, Ye Tingfeng, had already turned his back on her and disowned her as his daughter. He brought his mistress Chen Biyu and his illegitimate daughter Yelena into the Gu family, and even wanted Yelena to assume her name and take over everything for her.
Gu Anan has completely seen Ye Tingfeng's true face.
This time when I went to Hua'an Group, it was not a place where people were talking and laughing, and the father was kind and the son was filial.
She is bound to face a fierce battle. Even if she is weak, she will never lose in terms of momentum.
Gu Anan's expression was extremely serious. Huo Siting saw it and said calmly: "Mrs. Huo, don't forget, you are not alone when I am here."
Gu Anan knew what Huo Siting was referring to.
Their marriage was based on a deal. Gu Anan became his wife to avoid Mr. Huo's pressure to marry, and he would naturally help her in return.
However, Gu Anan also understands that there is no free lunch in the world.
What's more, last night Huo Siting had clearly expressed his thoughts as a man.
She couldn't turn a blind eye. Before asking him for help, she naturally had to consider whether she could afford the price.
"A person with Mr. Huo's status should have the trump card in his hand. The trump card should be reserved for the critical moment. Naturally, it will not be revealed immediately, right?" Gu Anan said.
Huo Siting couldn't help but laugh, and said in a low voice in her ear: "Really? I'll take it as if you sincerely praise me."
"Of course I mean it."
"You're a duplicitous little liar." Huo Siting smiled hoarsely, "Last night, who on earth scolded me for being a hypocrite? Huh?"
Gu Anan's ears felt hot and she couldn't help but glare at Huo Siting. How could this man still hold a grudge like this?!
However, this glance was not lethal.
The man looked at her deeply with his eyes, like a whirlpool that made people unable to escape and falling into it uncontrollably.
Gu Anan's heart began to beat rapidly again, and he couldn't control it anymore.
This man is too mature, and the charm he exudes is beyond the reach of ordinary people. He knows that he is in danger, but he can't get away.
Just like the poppy, it is an addictive and fatal temptation.
Gu Anan had forgotten how he got out of the car and almost fled out of Huo Siting's sight, and then he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, I kept reminding myself not to indulge in it.
This man is really dangerous and terrifying. Once he is really infected...
She was afraid she didn't know how she would die.
Gu Anan ran very fast, like a snow-white rabbit, and disappeared in an instant.
Huo Siting couldn't look away for a long time.
Ji Feng couldn't help but speak.
"Master Huo, I have already investigated the previous matter..."
"The reason why Madam passed out in a drunken dream was because she had a conflict with Ye Tingfeng. Before that, she was imprisoned for a day and a night without eating a grain of rice."
"Huo Yuntian's engaged fiancée changed to a different person. It was even designed by his wife, and her name was changed to Yelena's credit."
"Madam will definitely encounter a lot of trouble when she returns to the company. Mr. Huo, are you so relieved?"
Only then did Huo Siting look away, closed his eyes, and tugged on the tie at the collar with a hint of impatient coldness.
"Of course I'm not worried."
"It's just that if she doesn't take the initiative, I can only wait slowly."
In his opinion, Gu Anan is just a little rabbit that is difficult to tame.
Rabbits are creatures that, to those who don’t understand them well, may appear to be docile and cute, but in fact they are very stubborn and difficult to coax, and they will bite back harshly when cornered.
She broke off her engagement with Huo Yuntian and slapped him and his half-sister in the face in front of the entire Jingzhou media. This is the best example.
He finally managed to get her to stay with him of his own accord. Last night, just out of temptation, he scared her badly. The next thing will be more careful.
He has been waiting for so long, so he deserves this time.
Huo Siting closed his eyes and said, "Okay, let's go."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
Ji Feng could also see that Huo Siting had his own plans, and he obviously didn't need to say anything, so he turned around, started the car, and slowly left Hua'an Group.
On the other side, after Gu Anan calmed down his pounding heart, he received a phone call.
Chen Jinnan, chief lawyer of Huaan Group.
"Miss Gu, I'm sorry, I just saw your message when I was on a business trip." Chen Jinnan said, "I have arranged everything this morning and am on my way to Hua'an Group."
"Sorry to trouble you, Lawyer Chen." Gu Anan breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she is not fighting alone. With the help of Lawyer Chen, she will be able to successfully overcome this tough battle.
Gu Anan entered the elevator.
Most of the employees who came her way were familiar faces, so she nodded and said hello.
"morning."
The employees didn't seem to expect Gu An'an to appear, and they looked at each other before reacting.
"It turns out to be Director Gu, good morning!"
Gu Anan frowned and realized something was wrong.
She didn't bother to think deeply and went straight to her director's office.
The door of the office was ajar, and several team leaders under Gu Anan gathered inside, and they all shouted.
"Hello, Director Ye!"
The figure sitting on the director's office chair is none other than Yelena.
