Chapter 247 Announcement
She looked like she had done something bad and was trying hard to hide it.
"Well, it's just a short meeting. Let's say everything we need to say and then we'll adjourn." Huo Xilin came around the table, took Xu Qingsui's hand and stood up, then he sat on the chair himself, then put his arm around her waist and let her sit on his lap.
Xu Qingsui was somewhat uncomfortable with such an ambiguous action. She subconsciously looked towards the door, fearing that she would be seen. Fortunately, the office door was locked, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who were you chatting with just now? You looked so happy?" Huo Xilin rested his chin on Xu Qingsui's shoulder and asked casually.
Xu Qingsui had no choice but to open the chat history with Song Jin and show it to him: "No one else, a former colleague in the company, now he is your deputy project manager."
Huo Xilin looked at the conversation between the two and said, "They were so honest in front of me, but it turns out they talked about me like this in private."
It turns out that he doesn't like being talked about, and he probably doesn't want others to know about their relationship.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingsui said, "Then I will tell Song Jin that we have no relationship, so as to avoid misunderstandings among colleagues in the company."
After saying that, she started typing on the keyboard.
At this moment, the phone was snatched away by Huo Xilin.
Xu Qingsui looked at him puzzledly.
I saw him type a sentence on the keyboard and send it out.
Afterwards he returned the phone to Xu Qingsui. She quickly took a look and saw a message saying: Not boyfriend and girlfriend, but husband and wife.
Xu Qingsui: “…”
Xu Qingsui could imagine how big-mouthed Song Jin was. At this moment, she was probably about to jump up, eager to spread the news.
Sure enough, after this message was sent, there was no reply from Song Jin for a long time.
Xu Qingsui looked at Huo Xilin helplessly: "Boss Huo, you've made a mess. I'm afraid the whole world will know about it tomorrow."
Huo Xilin didn't care. He looked at Xu Qingsui seriously and said, "Who wants to be your boyfriend or girlfriend? You are my wife, the only one! I want everyone in the world to know that my wife is Xu Qingsui! Anyway, we will hold a wedding next year, and this matter will be announced sooner or later."
Huo Xilin's words made Xu Qingsui feel at ease.
She no longer had to hide like she did three years ago. She could stand with him openly.
At the end of the get off work day, when the employees were queuing up to clock in, Huo Xilin held Xu Qingsui's hand and walked past them in a swagger.
"Hello, Mr. Huo!" Wherever he went, employees greeted him one after another.
The sun rose from the west. You should know that Huo Xilin has an exclusive passage to and from get off work and does not need to use the employee passage, but today he appeared here for the first time.
What was even more surprising was the woman he was holding hands with.
Some old employees of the company gradually recognized Xu Qingsui, and all of them widened their eyes. It turned out that the rumors about the company today were true.
They have been single for three years, and Mr. Huo, who is not interested in women, has quietly started dating a girlfriend?
And this girlfriend is his former special assistant?
Soon, their thoughts were slapped in the face.
Because Huo Xilin introduced Xu Qingsui's identity in front of everyone: "This is my wife, the wife of the president of Huo's Group."
Suddenly, the scene fell into complete silence.
After a dead silence, everyone shouted in unison: "Hello, Madam President!"
Xu Qingsui: “…”
She had never experienced such a big scene before. She wanted to hide herself, but she had to face it head on. She smiled at everyone as a response.
From the moment he came out of the company, got into the car and closed the door, Xu Qingsui finally relaxed.
She couldn't help but say, "Boss Huo, why didn't I know before that you are such a high-profile person?"
In her impression, Huo Xilin is a very low-key person. In the company, he relies entirely on his reputation. He only attends the annual year-end meeting and hardly participates in other company team-building activities. He just lets employees entertain themselves and never engages in formalism.
This sudden incident today has left her still in shock.
"Being high-profile also depends on who you are and what you are talking about. Not everything is worth me being high-profile about, except you!" Huo Xilin approached Xu Qingsui and sprayed his lemon-scented breath on her face, which instantly made her feel warm from the bottom of her heart.
His body moved closer and closer, already pressed tightly against hers, his face was so close to hers that Xu Qingsui held her breath and closed her eyes subconsciously.
The kiss she was expecting did not come. She opened her eyes and found that Huo Xilin was just fastening her seat belt. It turned out that she had misunderstood.
Xu Qingsui felt a little embarrassed. As the sound of snapping was heard, Huo Xilin held her face and kissed her lips.
Xu Qingsui suddenly opened his eyes wide. Why does this person always play by his own rules?
Looking at Xu Qingsui's blushing cheeks and crystal-clear lips, she looked like a cherry ready to be picked, emitting an alluring fragrance anytime and anywhere.
If time and place did not permit it, Huo Xilin really didn't want to let her go.
I picked up a bottle of water and gulped it down, finally helping me to cool down a little.
"Let's go pick up our son." Huo Xilin started the car and drove out with his foot on the accelerator.
In the evening, after dinner, Xu Qingsui did not tell the little guy a story, but told him that she was going on a business trip to the north: "Mom is going to another city on a business trip for a while, and Dad and Grandma Wang will take care of you, okay?"
"Mommy, how long will you be gone?" Xu Youyou asked, looking up.
"Not sure, but Mommy can come back to see you anytime. You can also video call Mommy if you miss her." Xu Qingsui hugged the little guy tightly. In the past three years, the longest time she and the little guy were separated was only one week. She couldn't bear to think that they would be separated for a long time this time.
Xu Youyou became anxious when she heard this, and hugged Xu Qingsui's waist tightly: "Mommy, I can't bear to leave you, can you not leave?"
"But Mommy has to work." Xu Qingsui felt a little regretful, but having missed this opportunity, it would not be easy to get such a famous painting next time.
Opportunities like this are hard to come by.
The Xu family has been an appraiser and restorer for generations. After several generations, she is the only one who has inherited this craft, and she does not want to disappoint her grandparents' expectations.
However, she didn't want to make her son sad. Sometimes life is just about making choices, and it seems that no matter what choice you make, there will be regrets.
