Chapter 49 Resolving Misunderstandings

Jian Mo became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She drank a glass of water in one gulp, but her anger still hadn't subsided.

After hearing this, the servant shook his head with some difficulty: "Madam, Mr. Huo is really doing this for your own good. Maybe the way he said it is a little wrong, but..." After thinking for a long time, he didn't know how to word it, so he just said it bluntly, "Mr. Huo is used to going to bed early when he is not working, but tonight, he didn't rest after returning home. He asked me several times whether Madam had returned. I can see that he is really worried about you..."

When these words came out, Jian Mo was stunned. She remembered the deep tone in Huo Qichen's voice when he called her just now, and then thought about his reaction just now. It seemed a bit strange...

"He...waited for me all night?"

The servant nodded hurriedly, "Yes, Ju Ma can also testify that the master is really anxious, so actually...you just spoke a little harshly."

Huo Qi Chen would be worried about his whereabouts...why?

"But no matter what, he shouldn't... say that..."

"The deeper the love, the more severe the criticism."

Hearing this, Jian Mo immediately got goosebumps all over her body. This sentence did not apply to her. How could Huo Qichen love her so deeply? She shook her head vigorously, discarding the distracting thoughts in her heart, "No, he is just worried that I will cause trouble for him, and wants to squeeze out the remaining value in me."

After saying that, he felt much better. That's right, the identity of a capitalist suits Huo Qichen. He can't make random guesses about the deep love and harsh criticism!

"lady……"

"Alright! Is there any food in the kitchen? I'm starving."

The next morning.

The words the servant said last night lingered in Jian Mo's ears. She even began to reflect on whether she was too extreme, so that she did not sleep well all night and felt sore all over when she got up.

Passing by Huo Qichen's room, she paused, and during this pause, the door was suddenly opened from the inside. Huo Qichen had just taken a shower, and there was still water in his eyes. He lowered his eyes and saw the woman with messy hair. He was a little surprised, and his slightly depressed mouth was pursed tightly, but his anger had not subsided.

Jian Mo was startled and embarrassed, and remained silent for about half a minute. "Well... I went to see my brother's girlfriend last night. Her workplace is far away from here, and the taxi cost me two hundred yuan! So... I came back late."

I don’t want to explain in my heart, but I don’t know why, but my mouth won’t listen to me.

A hint of surprise flashed in Huo Qichen's eyes. He didn't expect that this woman would explain to him. She was the type of person who didn't hold grudges.

He raised the corners of his lips, his sarcasm still undiminished, "So you have a mouth."

"...I got angry yesterday when I heard you say I was having an affair with Doctor Xu. Who told you to say that first?"

The fragrance of a man after showering wafted into her nose. Jian Mo didn't dare to look directly at Huo Qichen. His face was too stunning and too aggressive. She was afraid that she would suddenly blush while talking, which would be really embarrassing.

Huo Qichen's anger had almost dissipated, but he said, "No matter what happens in the future, you must go home before eleven o'clock."

"Why?" She remembered what the servant said, that Huo Qichen was concerned about her...

"Because you live on my territory, you have no choice but to listen to me."

“…”

Huo Qichen walked downstairs with his long legs, and his mood seemed to be much better.

Jian Mo twitched her lips and made faces at his back. Capitalist! He is a capitalist!

Since talking with Wu Ting, Jian Mo felt much more at ease. She believed that she would make the right choice. As long as the engagement was cancelled, her mother would have no reason to ask for Jian's father's medical expenses.

But for several days, Wu Ting didn't reply to her, which made Jian Mo a little uneasy. She was afraid that this woman would fall in love and be coaxed back by Jian Zhou. She was also afraid that Jian Zhou would do something bad to Wu Ting when he was at the end of his rope.

She hesitated in front of the dialog box whether to ask proactively, when suddenly there was a commotion in the design department. It was Huo Qichen's special assistant, Mu Yi, who came down. She was dressed in a work suit, very neat and beautiful.

"Mr. Huo has new personnel appointments for the design department." Mu Yi raised the document in his hand.

Xiao Chen quickly pulled Jian Mo and whispered, "The position of Design Director must have been decided. It can't be you."

Jian Mo herself was also skeptical, "...it shouldn't be..." She also felt that she didn't have enough experience.

Sure enough, Mu Yi opened the document and spoke to the many expectant faces: "The new design director of the design department is Song Ke."

Group A immediately started to make noises, all congratulating Song Ke.

Xiao Chen looked dejected. "Tsk, that's boring. You're definitely better than Song Ke in terms of talent."

Jian Mo expected this, smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Don't talk nonsense."

At this moment, Mu Yi's eyes suddenly fell on him, with scrutiny and a hint of amusement, and then he withdrew his gaze and walked away quickly.

Jian Mo looked at her neat back and said with some emotion: "Actually, what I envy the most is this Special Assistant Mu. He is very capable and can be Huo Qichen's special assistant at such a young age. Not only is his salary high, but he must be very confident in all aspects. It's great."

Xiao Chen also looked over. "Indeed... This Special Assistant Mu is extremely capable. I heard that in the early years, when the executor of the Huo Corporation had not yet been determined, she resolutely chose to stand on Huo Qichen's side and accompanied him through all the difficulties and challenges to get to where he is today. This vision and courage are not possessed by ordinary women. In the Huo Corporation, she is the one that President Huo trusts the most."

Jian Mo had also heard about this. If she were Mu Yi, she would also choose Huo Qichen. He did have shining points that others did not have, and he also had leadership skills.

Tsk, it’s a pity there is no if, she would not have been able to meet Huo Qichen many years ago.

In the tea room.

Mr. Li came to make coffee during a break from work and saw Mu Yi sitting by the French window in a daze. He immediately walked over and said with a half-smile, "Assistant Mu, I heard that you were the one who personally announced the personnel changes in the design department today."

Mu Yi raised his eyes and said cautiously, "This is a personnel change that President Huo personally stamped. What's wrong with me making the announcement?"

"This isn't your job. It's a case of overstepping your authority. Does Mr. Huo know that you're acting on your own?"

"From what Mr. Li said, you hope he knows?"

Both of them are veterans who have been in the workplace for so many years. Mr. Li took a sip of coffee and smiled, "Assistant Mu is a popular figure around Mr. Huo. How dare I report you? Besides, I am also very satisfied with this result. There is no need to cause more trouble."

I guess he wouldn't dare. Mu Yi continued to look at the scenery outside and ignored him.

Mr. Li finished his coffee and before leaving, he suddenly leaned over to her and whispered, "Keep working hard. The whole company is wondering if you'll be Mr. Huo's ultimate match. Special Assistant Mu, if you succeed, remember to treat me to some wedding candy."

Mu Yi raised her head suddenly. To her, these words were just a mockery!

"roll."
