Chapter 127 No Need to Ask Me
Jian Mo's fingers turned white as she pointed at the ungrateful man, "If it weren't for you, would I be able to be a peacock?"
He smiled faintly, indicating that Mu Yi and the secretary could leave first. The former was reluctant, but finally compromised and left with the secretary with a sullen face.
After leaving the private room, Mu Yi's face turned pale: "Were you the one who called Jian Mo?"
"She called..." She didn't dare look at her, "but Mr. Huo instructed me to let her come."
As soon as these words were spoken, Mu Yi's face became even uglier. She took a deep breath and walked quickly towards the elevator.
Inside the box, Huo Qichen gestured for Jian Mo to come over to him. She was no longer acting; she was actually feeling a bit timid. "What?"
Huo Qichen held her in his arms and touched her cold fingers. "Are you cold on the road?"
"It's worth it no matter how cold it is. At least you can have peace and quiet this New Year." Jian Mo said with a smile, "How are you going to repay me?"
Huo Qichen asked nonchalantly: "What do you want?"
"Um……"
Jian Mo was a little nervous and hesitant. "I really have a very excessive request. It's too much. I'm afraid you'll be angry."
It was difficult for her to utter such words, so Huo Qichen said seriously, "You say it."
"Can you give it to me if I want it?"
In the silent box, his dark eyes captivated her. He didn't answer, but squeezed her fingers. She got the signal, cleared her throat, and said slowly, "That's right...that's right. I want to bring my dad home for the New Year at Mingyuan."
While saying this, she kept staring at Huo Qichen's expression, trying to catch his reaction, but he didn't react from beginning to end.
Seeing that he didn't answer and the corners of his lips were still turning downwards, she hurriedly explained: "I'm really afraid that my father will never wake up. I want to spend the New Year with him. As for the conditions of the Jian family, you know, it's not suitable for nursing a patient...so Mingyuan..."
Before she finished speaking, Huo Qichen suddenly interrupted her in a deep voice, "Jian Mo."
Jian Mo's heart skipped a beat, "Hmm."
"Is it because of this that you hesitated so long before telling me?" He was in a bad mood and his voice was very low.
She didn't understand, so she didn't say anything.
Huo Qichen showed some disappointment and helplessness to her, "You are Mrs. Huo now. You can make any decision you want. Besides, they are your family. How could I disagree?"
After a moment, Jian Mo finally understood what he meant. She laughed helplessly. She stretched out her arms, wrapped them around her neck, and leaned against him. "Huo Qichen, thank you."
The man's big hand fell on her head, stroking it gently, "Take it back, maybe he will react to the outside world."
"Grandpa has always wanted to meet your family. When the time comes, bring me over and have a good New Year."
How can I describe my mood at this moment? It was like I was walking on clouds. I was so excited. The love in Jian Mo's heart gradually grew into a towering tree.
After today, Huo Qi Chen saw that Jian Mo had nothing to do, so he asked her and Mu Yi to participate in the design of the annual meeting, under the pretext of professional matching.
The person in charge began to realize the importance of this matter and was hesitant to agree. "Arranging the annual meeting requires too much experience. I have never done it before. Assistant Mu can handle it himself. Why..."
Huo Qichen just said lightly: "She can handle it, you must also participate."
Mu Yi stood aside and swallowed her grievances. She had followed Huo Qi Chen for many years, so how could she not understand that he was paving the way for Jian Mo bit by bit.
Well...Mrs. Huo, it's my duty to pave the way...
After walking out of the office, Jian Mo stopped and said to Mu Yi, "Assistant Mu, thank you for taking me with you."
Mu Yi stood straight, his smile not reaching his eyes: "It's just an annual meeting, it's good to have someone to lend a hand. I happen to have a lot of things to do, thank you for sharing the burden with me."
Since she said so, Jian Mo smiled even more.
She wasn't sure what Huo Qichen was thinking, but since he did this, he must have his own plans. Besides, it was a good thing to exercise.
Needing help, Jian Mo found two trustworthy people in the design department to help, including Xiao Chen and Zhao Youzhi. In fact, after weighing the pros and cons, she still felt that the young man should be given a chance.
"Sister Jian, you are only 22. It's amazing that you can become a director at this age." Zhao Youzhi said with a smile while making the form.
"22, for a woman, this age is not young. There are endless female college students emerging one after another, and sooner or later they will all be replaced." Jian Mo made a gesture with his hands and replied with a wry smile.
"So what? Experience gained through age is incomparable." Zhao Youzhi didn't care. "I just like older sister-type women."
"Youzhi, are you going home for the New Year?" Jian Mo thought about the content on his resume and the background check she had done before. He came from a poor family and was not a local. He was admitted from the countryside.
Zhao Youzhi was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied, "Do you need to work overtime? I can stay home."
Xiao Chen burst out laughing. "Don't worry. Although the pressure is high at Huo's, the benefits are good. There's a fifteen-day holiday during the New Year holiday, and no overtime. Your sister Jian cares about you."
Zhao Youzhi scratched his head and looked at Jian Mo embarrassedly. She was packing her things quickly and gracefully, with a gentle smile on her face.
"Then I should go home. My parents miss me very much." He said, "Sister Jian, will you go home?"
"My family lives here, of course I'll go back."
He hesitated to speak, and followed the two people out of the company. "I heard that your father is not in good health, Sister Jian. If you need my help, please feel free to call me."
Jian Mo patted his head and said, "Don't worry about it. I can do it myself."
When he walked to the company door, this was the scene Huo Qichen saw. The man next to the woman looked honest, and she touched him like a dog.
His car caught Xiao Chen's eye, and he immediately restrained his expression, "Xiao Mo, is that Mr. Huo's car?"
Jian Mo looked over and immediately denied it, "How should I know? I don't know, who cares..."
Several people dispersed at the intersection. Jian Mo walked to the bus stop and saw that Xiao Chen and Zhao Youzhi had left. Then she quietly slipped back and got on the bus when no one was looking. She looked like a thief.
"Why did you park your car in front of the company?" She patted her chest, her heart beating so fast.
Huo Qichen narrowed his eyes, seeing her worthless look, "Who was that man just now?"
Jian Mo was stunned for a moment before she realized who he was talking about. "Zhao Youzhi, a newly hired employee who hasn't been officially hired yet."
"Can you touch the new recruit?" His voice was cold, which made Jian Mo shudder.
She swallowed and lowered her head: "I won't do this subconscious behavior again."
As the car was moving, Huo Qichen was processing emails on his computer and didn't say anything. His face was still gloomy and he didn't want to pay attention to her.
Jian Mo approached cautiously. He closed the computer and met her eyes: "What's wrong?"
"Where are we going, Mr. Huo?" She was shameless.
