Chapter 69

h steady, his fingers strong, and she almost fell into his arms.She hurriedly propped herself up with her hand, creating distance between them, a candid smile on her face. "Thank you," she said."You'r...Her cousin got out of her cousin-in-law's car. It wasn't anything unusual, except that Fu Yan had never really gotten along with the Huo family members. In the eyes of others, she and Huo Mingzheng hadn't even exchanged a word.

He got out of his car early in the morning, which was unusual.

Old Master Huo moved his hand, the rosary beads slipping onto his wrist. The rosewood color was polished to a sheen, gleaming in the sunlight and catching Fu Yan's eye. She had passed the initial wave of nervousness and now felt only the simple pressure of the old man's aura.

Those eyes, weathered by time, seemed like a mirror reflecting souls. She had already experienced this in the old house's study, where the old master, with his inscrutable thoughts, guided her with subtle words and phrases.

Just as she was about to speak, Huo Mingzheng calmly said, "She is Xiaowei's subordinate, going to the hospital to see her."

"So you do have some heart after all," Old Master Huo glared at her, his hand that held the cane raising its index finger. "How did you come to the Huo family You should be under Xiao Wei and in Xincheng or the old district."

"New Cheng and the Huo family have a collaboration, I'm here to discuss the details." Fu Yan had prepared materials in her bag and calmly opened it to take them out.

The old man took it from her, spread it out and flipped through a few pages. "Your plan is well done, but Xin Cheng isn't the best partner for the Huo family."

He closed the material together, with a dull thud.

To tug at the tightest string in someone's heart.

The old man didn't say a word, but his aura alone was enough to make people feel suffocated.

"You let her in through the back door" The old master's gaze swept over Huo Mingzheng, whose posture was tall and straight.

Fu Yan's heart skipped a beat, then she heard Huo Mingzheng say nonchalantly, "Just giving family a leg up, it's not like she's doing anything wrong. Ho Group isn't running at a loss anyway."

The old grandfather smiled meaningfully, said nothing, returned the materials to Fu Yan, and with Huo Mingzheng's support, entered the hall. The two cars at the door drove away one after another, leaving Fu Yan standing there.

Employees from the Huo family arrived one after another, and Fu Yan also went in.

I went to the front desk to explain my purpose, but unexpectedly saw Cao Fang standing there.

Huo Mingzheng's personal assistant, whose abilities and combat power are top-notch, stands at the front desk.

Facing Fu Yan's unabashedly curious and surprised expression, Cao Fang said calmly, "Miss Fu, you may enter."

The old master and his entourage rode in the Huo's executive elevator, while Fu Yan waited in the ordinary employee elevator. A crowd of people poured in, almost pushing her along. In the swirling mass of figures, she caught sight of Huo Mingzheng's cold profile, seared into her memory like a brand.

...to the point that he was often lost in thought during discussions with Director Lei about the details.

"Ms. Fu" Director Lei called out to her.

"Hmm" Fu Yan returned to her senses.

Lei, the general manager, has a good impression of Yan. The young lady repeatedly faces setbacks without complaining or getting angry. She is someone who can bend and stretch, and capable of accomplishing great things. Being able to secure the cooperation from Huo Mingzheng's hands, she must either have real skills, or there are ulterior motives at play.

No matter what kind it is, he treats it with respect.

"You don't look well, would you like to rest for a bit"

Fu Yan shook her head, intending to say no, but as soon as she did, she felt a dizziness in her head.

She woke up this morning and knew she had a cold. At the time, she didn't feel too bad. After blowing some wind at Ban Shan Hospital, and then being warmed by Huo Mingzheng's car heater, her cold worsened.

"No problem, General Lei. Please continue."

Director Lei glanced at her again, making sure her problem wasn't serious, and then stopped interrupting.

This is a comprehensive resort project, the project is large and there are many details to discuss. After Fu Yan gave a general introduction, the design team began to explain the details, and if there were any inappropriate places, General Lei and they pointed them out on the spot.

Fu Yan sat aside sipping the warm water poured by her secretary. Every swallow felt like swallowing a blade of knife in her throat.essary," Old Master Huo patted his arm. He had stooped a bit in recent years, and at his age, he could no longer stand straight. He tilted his head slightly. "You are my grandson, I don't want concern...
