Chapter 96 Consideration
"Who asked you to move in?" Huo Xilin walked into the office and asked unhappily when he saw Yan Xisui and Xu Qingsui sitting together.
Now that she has Madam Huo's support, Yan Xisui no longer has to be as cautious in treating Huo Xilin as before. She said confidently, "Brother Lin, Special Assistant Xu is your special assistant and can sit here. I can sit on an equal footing with her, so naturally I can do the same."
"Do you think you and I can be on equal terms?" Huo Xilin asked coldly.
Yan Xisui was stunned for a moment, and began to feel unsure. She shook her head: "That's not what I meant."
"In this company, I still have the final say. If you think my decision makes sense, you can go and tell Chairman Huo to move out!"
Huo Xilin's tough and cold attitude made Yan Xisui's eyes red instantly: "Brother Lin..."
However, her pitiful appearance could no longer arouse any change in his emotions as it once did.
Yan Xisui bit her lip in grievance. She was so unwilling to accept this. Now she was afraid that even if she pretended to be sick and fell in front of him, he would remain indifferent.
The last time she fainted, he sent her to the hospital, found a nurse to take care of her, and then he disappeared.
Now, even under the pressure put on him by Old Madam Huo, he remained indifferent. She could even clearly feel that the distance between her and him was getting farther and farther.
If she could have assured before that Huo Xilin had her in his heart and Xu Qingsui was just a substitute, now she could be sure that there might no longer be a place for her in his heart.
Since when did Xu Qingsui completely replace her position?
Under Huo Xilin's tough attitude, Yan Xisui had no choice but to obey his orders and ask someone to move out the desk she had just moved in.
Her office was still in the same location as before. Seeing this, several secretaries around her began to whisper.
Yan Xisui was so angry that she yelled, "What are you looking at? Is this also the time for you to chat during work hours?"
Although several secretaries were dissatisfied with Yan Xisui, they could only hold it in. Now they realized that the legendary first love of President Huo held a low position in President Huo's heart. She was probably not even as important as a finger of Special Assistant Xu.
But even without Mr. Huo's support, she still has Old Madam Huo looking after her, so she is still not someone that ordinary workers like them can afford to offend.
An Nuan hurried forward to comfort her, "Ms. Yan, don't be angry. There is still a long way to go. We need to take a long-term view to deal with Xu Qingsui. You must not argue with Mr. Huo at this time."
Yan Xisui felt that what An Nuan said made sense, so she quietly waited for the opportunity. One day, she would make Xu Qingsui fall into an irretrievable situation.
After get off work, Xu Qingsui received a message from her brother, asking her when she was free and wanting to discuss something with her.
Yes, she hasn't visited her brother for a long time.
When she was discharged from the hospital last time, Xu Qingsui thought about moving back to the courtyard to live with her brother, but Huo Xilin took her back to Bishui Huating. Later, work and business trips made her put this matter on hold.
Seeing that Xu Qingsui was still sitting in her chair and had no intention of leaving get off work, Huo Xilin packed up the documents, walked up to her and knocked on the table.
The crisp voice brought Xu Qingsui back to his senses and he looked up at the man in front of him.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Huo Xilin said, "I heard that a good movie was released recently. It happens that I have an early shift today, so let's go watch it after dinner."
He didn't know how to pursue someone, but he was bored today and did some searching on the Internet, which found things that must be done on a date: shopping, eating, and watching movies.
It is better to do it today than to wait for a day. It just so happened that Huo Xilin had some free time recently and could get off work early, so he thought of giving it a try to see if he could please Xu Qingsui.
Meeting Huo Xilin's expectant gaze, Xu Qingsui said guiltily, "Let's do it another day. I have to go to the courtyard today. My brother sent me a message wanting to discuss something with me."
"Okay." Huo Xilin nodded: "I should have gone with you to see my brother earlier. I neglected this matter."
Xu Qingsui knew that Huo Xilin was busy with work and couldn't consider so many things, not to mention that she herself was negligent, so she said considerately: "It's okay, I don't blame you."
"Then I'll take you there." Huo Xilin said.
Xu Qingsui wanted to refuse, but seeing Huo Xilin's firm attitude, he swallowed the words back.
As if he had seen through her melancholy, Huo Xilin asked with a hint of disappointment, "When are you going to introduce me to your family?"
Their relationship had never been made clear before. Xu Qingsui was afraid that her relationship with Huo Xilin would be known by others, and she was also afraid that her younger brother would know. Now the two of them are together sincerely, not because of the contract. Xu Qingsui thought that it was indeed time to introduce Huo Xilin to her younger brother.
"Then let's go, have dinner with your brother tonight and let him get to know you as his brother-in-law."
Huo Xilin had a smile in his eyes, and the slightly raised corners of his lips made him look a little sinister.
He would never tell Xu Qingsui that his brother Xu already knew the identity of his brother-in-law.
While still in the hospital, he had already revealed his identity to Brother Xu.
However, for their first formal meeting, Huo Xilin still went to the mall to pick out a gift.
"Actually, you don't have to take it so seriously. My brother will definitely like you." Xu Qingsui looked at the expensive items that Huo Xilin bought, and was afraid that he would continue to spend money, so he kindly reminded him.
Huo Xilin took Xu Qingsui in his arms and continued to choose a suitable gift while saying, "You don't understand. I want to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with my brother-in-law, so that if I make you angry in the future, someone can help me with advice and lobby to resolve the situation."
Xu Qingsui burst out laughing: "Are you thinking too far ahead? I don't think we will quarrel, right?"
She found it hard to imagine what it would be like to have an argument with Huo Xilin.
She was a quiet person who didn't like quarrels, and Huo Xilin was even more so, as he had an indifferent personality. She really couldn't imagine what would cause the two of them to quarrel.
"It's better to be safe than sorry. I always think long-term about everything I do. Besides, your brother is my brother from now on. As his brother-in-law, shouldn't I treat him well?"
Xu Qingsui knew that Huo Xilin loved his brother because he loved her and his family. He was good to his brother just because he wanted to be good to her and make her feel at ease and happy.
She said to him sincerely, "Thank you."
"You know, I don't like hearing you say thank you to me." Huo Xilin whispered in her ear, "If you really want to thank me, why not show some sincerity, like in bed..."
