Chapter 16 Let Her Go Tonight
Xu Qingsui turned around and looked at him: "Mr. Huo, this is my job, I hope you can respect me."
"There are many positions in the company. I will go back and arrange one that suits you, or you can choose one you like."
Huo Xilin never assigns positions based on gender, only on personal ability.
This was the first time he felt compassion.
"Boss Huo, what kind of position is suitable for me?" Xu Qingsui raised his head slightly, looking at him with an unprecedented firmness. "If you think that sitting in an office is suitable for me, then you are underestimating me."
Xu Qingsui knew very well that she and Huo Xilin had only agreed to get married, and one day she would have to return to her own life.
If she counted on him to help her every time she encountered a little setback, then how many setbacks, big and small, would she encounter in her life?
However, the number of times she could count on him was limited in time.
Xu Qingsui is very clear-headed. The only one she can rely on is herself.
"Mr. Huo, thank you for your kindness, but I can do this job, and I hope you won't interfere in my work!"
After Xu Qingsui finished speaking, he turned and left without hesitation.
In front of Huo Xilin, Xu Qingsui has always been very soft-hearted.
This time he was very tough, a side of Huo Xilin rarely seen.
Yes, this is the real Xu Qingsui.
And the weak Xu Qingsui was just a disguise because fate had not treated her well. Huo Xilin had always known this.
When Xu Qingsui finished signing the documents and came out, he heard the news that Huo Xilin had left.
She was calm inside. In the days to come, she would work harder and learn and ask questions if she didn't understand something.
She must prove herself that she is capable and she can do it!
On Friday night, Xu Qingsui handed over the work to Manager Guo.
She didn't forget that she had to go back to meet her parents tomorrow, so she had to go back to the city tonight.
"It's too late. It's not easy for a girl like you to take the bus. I'll arrange for someone to take you."
Manager Guo, out of kindness for Xu Qingsui's sake, did not give her a chance to refuse and called Zhou Xu over.
The resort is far away from the city and is still in the planning stage, so there are very few vehicles.
Soon, Zhou Xu ran in. He seemed to see Xu Qingsui's embarrassment and explained, "I am going back to the city tonight as well. I will give you a ride on the way."
Faced with Zhou Xu's kindness, Xu Qingsui couldn't refuse.
The two walked to the temporary parking lot one after the other.
An off-road vehicle stopped on the road the two had to pass, and the window slowly rolled down, revealing Huo Xilin's handsome face.
"Xu Qingsui, get in the car."
Xu Qingsui was slightly surprised when Huo Xilin appeared.
"Captain Zhou, thank you for your kindness today."
Under Huo Xilin's increasingly dangerous gaze, Xu Qingsui gritted his teeth, said hello to Zhou Xu, and then got on the off-road vehicle.
Huo Xilin gave Zhou Xu an ambiguous look, then closed the car window, stepped on the accelerator and drove away from Zhou Xu.
The drift caused Xu Qingsui's body to lean uncontrollably towards Huo Xilin, and his head hit his arm.
In Xu Qingsui's impression, Huo Xilin is a very stable person.
Such reckless behavior as speeding is simply not something he could do.
Huo Xilin was obviously in a bad mood today.
Xu Qingsui held the seat belt tightly with both hands, and her face gradually turned pale.
The excessive speed of the car made her heart jump to her throat. She asked cautiously, "Boss Huo, did something happen?"
Huo Xilin saw Xu Qingsui's gradually pale face on the display screen and slowly slowed down the car.
"I'm sorry if I scared you."
He spoke calmly, with no emotion in his tone.
Xu Qingsui shook his head and dared not speak any more.
For a moment, the only sound in the car was the sound of the engine.
It was already late when they returned to Bishui Hua Ting. Xu Qingsui leaned against the passenger seat and fell asleep without knowing when.
In a daze, she felt a warmth.
She squeezed towards the warm place, and then she felt her whole body as if warmed by the sun.
She was so sleepy. It had been a long time since she had such a comfortable and peaceful sleep.
Looking at Xu Qingsui sleeping obediently in his arms, the layer of frost on Huo Xilin's face slowly began to melt.
Even he himself did not realize that at this moment, his eyes were full of tenderness.
I feel a little unwilling to let her go tonight!
…
The Huo's old house is located on a hillside north of the city.
The Huo family is a century-old family. Their ancestors had made great contributions, so the government specially allocated a piece of land to their family. After a century of vicissitudes, the Huo's old house was able to be preserved in the turbulent times.
Passing through the dense woods, an ancient castle gradually emerged.
This was Xu Qingsui's first time here. When the Xu family was prosperous, she had seen many majestic buildings, but the grandeur of the Huo's old house still shocked her greatly.
The fact that such an old house has not been taken away shows the status of the Huo family.
"The young master is back."
Huo Xilin's car drove into the gate, and the housekeeper quickly dialed the phone number of the main house to inform the old lady.
Since taking over the Huo Group, Huo Xilin rarely returns to his old house.
There are many reasons for this. In addition to being far away from the company, the most important reason is the trauma of childhood.
In this old house, there is a past that he doesn't want to mention.
Huo Xilin brought Xu Qingsui into the hall. The old lady was sitting on the main sofa and had been waiting for a long time.
In addition to the old lady, there was another person sitting next to her—Yan Xisui.
Huo Xilin frowned slightly: "Mom, why is she here?"
"Since this is a family gathering, Xiaosui is my goddaughter, she shouldn't be here?" The old lady snorted coldly and looked at Xu Qingsui, "How much do you know about the rules of the Huo family?"
Xu Qingsui was confused by the question and shook his head: "Madam, I'm not sure."
Huo Xilin didn't say anything to her.
She thought that he brought her here just for a walk, so she didn't take it to heart.
"Is this the person you're looking for? Nonsense!" The old lady stood up angrily, "Even if you're angry with Xiaosui, you shouldn't joke about your own lifelong event. Who are you looking for so casually?"
The old lady's words and looks were full of contempt for Xu Qingsui, and it was obvious that she disliked her.
Xu Qingsui also knew his own identity and didn't think it was a big deal.
Anyway, she and Huo Xilin are just partners, and satisfying all the boss's requirements is her professional ethics.
Suddenly, Huo Xilin took her hand and squeezed it gently.
Xu Qingsui subconsciously looked up at him, and Huo Linxi gave her a reassuring look.
It was as if he was telling her not to worry, that he would take care of everything.
Xu Qingsui smiled indifferently, and his initially nervous mood gradually relaxed.
