Ten years in Huating have been turbulent, with behind-the-scenes capital always omnipresent. Beneath the calm surface, undercurrents always churn; lights flicker on and off, and human affairs ebb a...
Huo Zhongyuan carried Qin Suisui to the living room and put her down on the sofa.
He leaned down and touched his forehead to hers.
"Wait here patiently for me. I've made you some seafood porridge. I'll bring it to you!"
Qin Suisui: "I'm going to wash up first!"
She's not used to eating without brushing her teeth.
Huo Zhongyuan bent down to look at her: "Can you walk? Do you need me to carry you?"
"Get away from me!"
Qin Suisui kicked at him barefoot, but Huo Zhongyuan caught her.
Huo Zhongyuan looked down at the slender, fair feet beneath his palm, the toenails tinged with a faint pink, and the feet less than half the size of his palm.
"lay down!"
Qin Suisui kicked it.
"Don't move!"
Huo Zhongyuan knelt down on one knee and kissed the back of her foot.
"Hello!"
Qin Suisui suddenly shrank back.
Huo Zhongyuan held her feet tightly and picked up her slippers from the ground to help her put them on.
"Alright, go wash up!"
Huo Zhongyuan wanted to kiss her forehead, but she blocked him with her leg.
"Get away from me, you just kissed my feet."
I still want to kiss her cheek. What's that habit?
Huo Zhongyuan laughed as he reached out and pinched her nose.
"Even I despise myself!"
Qin Suisui rolled her eyes at him. Was this something to be ashamed of? Then she ignored him, got up, and went to the washroom to wash up.
Huo Zhongyuan's seafood porridge was fragrant and smooth, and Qin Suisui had a great appetite, drinking two bowls in a row.
"Is it tasty?"
Huo Zhongyuan put down the spoon in his hand and looked at Sui Sui, who was clutching her stomach.
"Mmm, delicious! I'm already stuffed!"
"If it's delicious, I'll make it for you again tomorrow, okay?"
"Isn't this too much trouble!"
Qin Suisui hesitated, "Judging from the appearance of the porridge, my senior brother must have gotten up very early."
"It won't be a hassle. I can set a timer to cook porridge when I get back tonight!"
"Okay, then I want to drink more!"
Qin Suisui made no attempt to hide her preferences!
The atmosphere at breakfast was warm and harmonious.
After breakfast, Huo Zhongyuan drove her to the Yuanxing Building.
"Sui Sui!"
Huo Zhongyuan turned to look at Qin Suisui outside the car. His sharp features softened considerably, losing their coldness, because of the smile in the corner of his eyes.
"I'll pick you up after get off work!"
"Um!"
Qin Suisui nodded with a smile, gesturing with her hand, her bright and enthusiastic smile shining through.
Her ardent smile gave Huo Zhongyuan a fleeting impulse to get out of the car, grab her, and keep her by his side, preventing anyone from seeing her...
Qin Suisui's smile didn't fade even after she arrived at the law firm.
"Doya, your lipstick color today suits you perfectly, it makes your skin look so fair!"
"real!"
Duoya smiled, her eyes crinkling. Qin Lu had been smiling so brightly lately, like a gentle spring breeze.
She exudes extreme gentleness, and her eyes and brows are indescribably beautiful. It seems today will be another wonderful day.
She immediately thought of President Huo from yesterday; his mood depended entirely on Qin Lu's comforting words.
She couldn't help but shake her head and sigh softly.
"A woman is nourished by love..."
"oh!"
She was flicked on the forehead, and she turned away angrily, clutching her forehead.
Seeing that it was Chang Jinhui again, he shouted angrily.
"Chang Jinhui, you're asking for it!"
She grabbed the registration book from the front desk and threw it at him.
Haha~
Chang Jinhui covered his head and hurried away.
"What does this little girl even know about the nourishment of love!"
Doya wanted to rush over and cover his mouth, so she whispered angrily.
"Chang Jinhui, shut up right now!"
As soon as Hong Tao stepped out of the elevator, he saw Chang Jinhui fleeing. He stood behind Duo Ya and asked with amusement.
"Duoya, what's wrong? What did Changlu say that made you so angry? Your cheeks are puffed up like a pufferfish!"
"Lawyer Hong! How could you do this too!"
Doya stomped her feet in anger.
She pouted, turned around, went to the front desk, gave him a sidelong glance, and ignored him.
"Heh~"
Hong Tao smiled, shook his head, and walked inside.
Well, his words caused Doya to take her anger out on him.
As soon as Qin Suisui opened the door, she heard Chang Jinhui's laughter coming from the corridor.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Yue Hongxin, who had gotten up and was walking towards her.
"What happened? Why is Chang Lu so happy today?"
Yue Hongxin peeked out and said with a smile.
"It seems like he was joking with Doya!"
Qin Suisui smiled, pursing her lips.
"Assistant Yue, please show me the documents from Chengfu Jiangzhou that I reviewed yesterday!"
"Okay, Lawyer Qin, please wait a moment!"
Yue Hongxin could clearly sense that Qin Lu was in a very good mood today, with a smile always hidden in his eyes.
When the boss is in a good mood, their work becomes much easier and more enjoyable.
She looked out the window at the clear blue sky, where the summer sun shone brightly.
She looked around and saw that everyone in the Law Offices of Rodton was smiling. They were young and energetic, radiating a vibrant and passionate life force.
………………
Far away in M·Country, in a spacious office of a senior executive at South American Power.
Duncan sat in the armchair, legs crossed, toes lightly tapping in the air, rocking rhythmically against the back of the chair.
"You mean, Sheffield from Rodton is going to Mexico on Tuesday for his final pre-trial hearing with the Cecil Bloc?"
He held a cigar between his fingers, his vision obscured by the thin smoke, so Britney couldn't see his expression.
"Yes!"
Britney couldn't figure out what he was thinking and was unsure whether Duncan was still interested in Rodton's Sheffield.
However, considering the benefits Mannie had promised her, she swallowed hard.
