Nie Xin's hand remained awkwardly suspended in mid-air.
Huo Zhixing's heart instantly blossomed with joy. Although this chubby orange cat didn't usually like him much, it still touched him deeply at this crucial moment.
He was thinking to himself that he would add a can of fish to the meal that night!
"Hey," Jiang Can tugged at his sleeve, "Don't you have to go to the company today? Why did you bring Fatty Orange along?"
"Oh..." Huo Zhixing licked his lips.
It can't be that he came here in a fit of anger after receiving Fu Xiuyu's call, bringing Fatty Orange with him, can it?
“Um, it…it has mites!” Huo Zhixing said without changing his expression. “I’m planning to take it to the pet store.”
Fat Orange stared at him blankly, then swung its chubby body, revealing its clean and beautiful orange fur with a gleaming shine.
"Meow!" it protested.
You're the one with mites! Your whole family has mites!
"And another thing," Huo Zhixing continued, "the little paper house you made for it isn't sturdy enough, so I'll take it to buy a new one. Then we'll see if there's anything else we need and buy it all at once!"
Jiang Can was somewhat surprised, both amused and exasperated. "When did you become so attentive to cats?"
Huo Zhixing said sincerely, "Fat Orange is part of our family, so of course I have to treat it well!"
Fat Orange flattened his face and simply refused to look at him.
"Can Can, come with me to buy it."
"ah?"
"I don't know how to choose these things."
Jiang Can hesitated, "But..."
"President Fu said," Huo Zhixing said with a gentle smile, "that you have the day off today!"
Xu Yan chuckled twice, "Although Assistant Jiang works hard, she also gets quite a few holidays!"
Huo Zhixing gave him a look, and he immediately shut up, making notes and markings on the script.
"Jiang Can, Xu Yan is enough here." Nie Xin glanced at her. "You and President Huo go and get busy!"
Huo Zhixing's face darkened; these words sounded extremely unpleasant.
However, he didn't have time to argue with Nie Xin, and he hugged Jiang Can and strode away.
Nie Xin watched the two figures disappear into the distance, a barely perceptible smile playing on her lips, a profound meaning surfacing in her eyes.
"She's quite jealous!"
Xu Yan smiled and said, "Young Master, should we report this to the Chairman?"
Nie Xin frowned slightly. "Why don't you contact Old Chen first, so he's aware of the situation? After all, Young Master Huo is still under observation; we can't draw conclusions so early!"
"Ha, Young Master Huo used to be a big shot in the Central City, but now he's become a subject of observation!"
Nie Xin pursed her lips, chuckled, and shrugged.
"There's nothing we can do. Who told him to insist on marrying Can Can? Our Yin family's princess isn't someone he can get so easily!"
