Chapter 19 Your roof is on fire



Isn't it for her son?

Mrs. Huo seemed stunned for a moment, a little surprised, but not unhappy. She just asked in confusion: "Today is a working day, isn't Secretary Lu out to help Si Yan buy clothes?"

"I have resigned, ma'am." Lu Ziyao kept smiling and spoke in a very polite tone and attitude.

"You were doing well, so why did you quit?"

Mrs. Huo frowned, stepped forward and took Lu Ziyao's hand, and asked with concern: "Did Si Yan bully you?"

Lu Ziyao was a little uncomfortable with Mrs. Huo's sudden closeness. She calmly pulled her hand back while speaking.

"Thank you for your concern, Mrs. Huo. Mr. Huo didn't bully me. I just wanted to resign on my own."

"There must be some reason!" Mrs. Huo asked relentlessly.

"Emmm... Maybe I just think I'm too talented. Being a secretary beside Mr. Huo is a waste of my talent. The world is so big, I want to go see it."

Lu Ziyao really thought about Mrs. Huo's question seriously.

Of course, it is not easy to be Huo Siyan's secretary. She had to beat out many talents to get the position of secretary.

I used to think it was such a blessing to be able to work with people I liked every day, so even if I didn’t like this kind of work, I could overcome it.

But now, there is no need for her to persist.

I said I wanted to let go, but if I still see Huo Siyan every day, wouldn’t I be asking for trouble?

"Have you paid the bill?" Lu Ziyao said to Qin Xiaobei who had been silent beside her.

"I've bought it, I've bought it."

Qin Xiaobei nodded quickly. The current situation was a bit awkward. It was thanks to her sister that she could hold on. She was indeed a ruthless person who could stay with Master Huo for so long and still be safe and sound.

Qin Xiaobei only had one bag, but Lu Ziyao bought a lot, six bags of clothes and other things.

"Mrs. Huo, my friend and I have something to do, so I'll leave first and won't disturb you." Lu Ziyao held two bags in each hand, and Qin Xiaobei helped her carry the remaining two bags. She hurriedly said she was leaving, as it would be awkward to continue chatting.

"Okay then, let's talk again next time we have a chance."

Mrs. Huo didn't say anything. Her every move was full of grace, and her words were gentle. She turned her head and said to the bodyguard behind her, "Ah Fu, help Miss Lu carry her things."

Before Lu Ziyao could figure out what Mrs. Huo meant by "talk about it next time," she heard her asking someone to help her carry her things. It was so polite that Lu Ziyao was a little hesitant to accept it.

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam. Just bring it to the underground garage. There aren't many things, so I can do it myself..."

Before Lu Ziyao finished speaking, Ah Fu had already taken the bags from her and Qin Xiaobei's hands.

Lu Ziyao: ...

The action was a bit lightning fast.

"Thank you, Mrs. Huo. We'll leave first." Lu Ziyao could only thank Mrs. Huo again before pulling Qin Xiaobei out of the store.

Qin Xiaobei followed behind Lu Ziyao, and nodded to Mrs. Huo when she passed by her. She then quickly left the store with her sisters in small steps.

Mrs. Huo looked sideways at Lu Ziyao's leaving back, as if thinking about something, and then chuckled.

Mrs. Huo took out her cell phone from her bag and made a call, saying gloatingly, "Son, your roof is on fire."
