Chapter 62 Hearing the Secret
Jian Mo got up very early.
She was mentally prepared and knew that Huo Qichen would not come back, so she could only go to the Huo family alone. Her idea was simple: as long as she got up early enough, Jian Zhou would not be able to catch her.
Could he possibly stay up all night just to stare at her?
The bus stop was empty in the early morning. Jian Mo clutched her bag tightly and kept alert to her surroundings, fearing that Jian Zhou would suddenly appear from somewhere and take advantage of her.
It was also at this time that she realized how much sense of security Huo Qi Chen had given her recently.
Now the sense of security is gone and the anxiety is doubled.
Jian Mo laughed at herself in her heart, realizing that she really couldn't rely on men.
Fortunately, they arrived safely at the Huo's. Jian Mo put down her bag. Xiao Chen came forward and asked ambiguously, "You look pale. Was your husband...?"
Jian Mo scoffed, "You think too much."
"Could it be that your husband really has a hidden illness? Xiaomo, I really have to advise you, there are thousands of men in the world, don't hang yourself on a tree. You are still so young and beautiful, why bother believing in so-called love."
Early in the morning, it was chicken soup. Jian Mo tiredly turned on the computer and began to draw the design. "I understand the principle, but when you are in the world, how can you get out of it so easily?"
At least for now, she can't afford to offend Huo Qi Chen.
Xiao Chen was about to say something more when Song Ke, wearing a hip skirt and carrying a bag, came to work, looking very graceful. As she passed by Jian Mo's workstation, she paused and asked, "Jian Mo, have you got the copyright?"
The tone and volume were both incredible.
Jian Mo spread her hands and replied provocatively: "Is it difficult?"
Song Ke stared at the half-finished design, gnashing her teeth, and finally nodded, "Good job."
The office door was slammed shut, and Xiao Chen almost fell to the ground laughing. Seeing this, Jian Mo's mood improved a lot.
How does the saying go, failure in love, success in business.
No, she and Huo Qichen were not really in love.
For several days, Huo Qi Chen did not return to Mingyuan. Jian Mo was tactful and naturally did not go to the top floor to cause trouble.
Occasionally, when going up and down the elevator, you can see him taking the private elevator. He is as slender and indifferent as ever, with a group of people following him. Mu Yi is holding a document to report on his work, and he only occasionally says a few words and gives his opinions.
Every minute they talk about cooperation worth hundreds of millions.
Jian Mo withdrew her gaze and walked into the ordinary elevator.
When Huo Qi Chen felt his gaze turn around, there was no one there.
Jian Mo spent all her time on the design drawings. When the finished product came out, Wang Jing was very satisfied. "Ms. Jian, you are the right person to entrust this case to."
She perfectly integrates IP and personal characteristics, and once it is on the market, it will definitely attract attention.
"We'll transfer the money right away once the contract is approved. By the way, Miss Jian, can I treat you to a meal as a thank you?"
Jian Mo smiled faintly on the other end of the phone: "This is my job, part of my responsibility, there's nothing to thank me for."
"I'm not talking about work."
Jian Mo paused, "Okay, but you have to take me home after dinner."
Wang Jing readily agreed.
He booked the restaurant on the seaside, and it was evening, so the scenery was breathtaking.
After ordering, Jian Mo smiled and said, "The design suggestions your company gave me also included elements of the sea. Mr. Wang seems to have a special liking for the sea."
Wang Jing is a very charming middle-aged man. He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You know, I don't have a special liking for the sea, but for her."
It seems that he is not the one who has let go.
The steak here was good, and Jian Mo enjoyed it to her heart's content. She also mentioned, "Mr. Wang, you have good conditions, so why haven't you found someone else yet? I mean, someone you can marry."
Wang Jing leaned back in his chair and looked into the distance. "For a man of my age, getting married or not is not important. If I want, there will naturally be plenty of women coming up to me, but I don't like that."
"Hasn't there been any casual flirting in all these years?"
"Is it just a casual affair? Of course it is," Wang Jing smiled, having seen something interesting. "In our circle, it happens more or less. If you have a chance, you can ask Mr. Huo."
Jian Mo's heart skipped a beat. Why did he suddenly mention Huo Qichen?
Wang Jing stared at a certain spot. "Ms. Jian, honestly, I admire you very much. You are decisive and courageous. I hope we can continue our cooperation for a long time. If you have the chance, remember to say hello to Mr. Huo for me."
Jian Mo has been working in the workplace for so many years that she understood the meaning of the words.
Thanking her was just a superficial act. In fact, he wanted to use her name to get in touch with Huo Qi Chen. After all, Jingfeng was still a small company. If it could get investment from Huo Qi Chen, it would have a bright future.
Jian Mo put down her knife and fork and politely declined: "Actually, my main field is interior design. Due to some work reasons, I was forced to take on this case. Unless Jingfeng wants to develop real estate in the future, there will be no chance of cooperation in the future. I'm very sorry."
Wang Jing heard this and nodded without comment, "I understand."
Jian Mo was relieved that he didn't force her. In order to avoid embarrassment, she made an excuse to go to the bathroom.
However, after walking a few steps, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
It was still the same white shirt as always, with the cuffs rolled up to the elbows, and the lines were extremely smooth.
Huo Qi Chen was led by the waiter into a private room.
Jian Mo's heart skipped a beat. She finally understood why Wang Jing suddenly mentioned Huo Qichen just now. He must have seen him. Then did he see her?
The waiter left and Jian Mo headed towards the bathroom. When she passed by the antique box, her steps stopped for some unknown reason.
There is a conversation inside.
"Qi Chen, do you have any feelings for Wan Jing?" It was a slightly hoarse male voice, as if he had just smoked a cigarette, and his momentum was no weaker than Huo Qi Chen's.
"Li Wanli's poor management has made him a fat piece of meat that has been delivered to our door. I think I'm not the only one who has this idea."
Huo Qichen said calmly, with a sly tone in his voice.
"It all depends on your ability, but you will fail this time." He was very confident.
So Huo Qichen smiled and said, "I've heard that Wan Jing and you have a conflict. Why, do you want me to give in?"
"Will you give in?"
"No matter who wants to compete with the Huo family for this place of fame and fortune in Haicheng, I will not give in."
There was the sound of chess pieces falling inside. It turned out that someone was playing chess. I didn't know whether the winner was decided or not.
Jian Mo didn't want to listen anymore. These important matters of the top leaders were not something she could understand. However, just as she took a step, she pushed over a small thing. The sound was not loud but very clear.
There was silence inside.
Jian Mo suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. She gritted her teeth and left quickly, fearing that the door would be opened.
She ran fast and rushed into the ladies' room. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw no one was chasing her. Tsk, curiosity killed the cat.
The man just now called Huo Qi Chen "Qi Chen" instead of "Mr. Huo" or "Achen". Presumably, the relationship between the two is not that unfamiliar, nor that close. They are both rivals and friends.
But Wanjing is going to be acquired?
