Hua Chang was a little confused for a moment.
"Manager Li, you're overthinking it. I didn't intend to ask for help from President Qi."
After saying that, Hua Chang slowly stood up and looked at the man who had been following Manager Li with his head lowered. "This is Xiao Wang, right?"
Hearing Hua Chang's words, the man looked up in surprise.
Hua Chang's lips twitched slightly, and she realized that her words just now were not very respectful.
"Yes, he's Xiao Wang." Manager Li didn't notice anything wrong: "Tonight, we'll be..."
Before they finished speaking, a male voice suddenly interrupted them: "Go to the dinner with them."
Hearing the familiar male voice, Hua Chang looked past Manager Li and fell on the visitor.
It’s Qi Mu.
Shouldn’t Qi Mu be off work at this time?
How come you are still in the company?
"Qi...Boss Qi?" Manager Li was startled and panicked. "Why are you here?"
But when he thought about the fact that he had already told Wang Shao about this task and asked Wang Shao to pass it on to Qi Mu, Manager Li felt more confident.
"Boss Qi, I've reported this to Special Assistant Wang."
"I know." Qi Mu said calmly, his tone unquestionable: "Now I ask you to go to the dinner with them, do you have any objections?"
Manager Li's face turned pale when he heard this.
This project was originally hers, and she was the one who was supposed to attend the dinner.
But she threw this hot potato to Hua Shang.
She originally thought that she could just sit back and reap the benefits, but she didn't expect Qi Mu's words to shatter her beautiful plans.
"Mr. Qi, I have something else..." Manager Li tried to extricate himself.
Unfortunately, Qi Mu didn't intend to give her this opportunity: "Other things can be handed over to other employees, but you must go to this dinner tonight, and as a supervisor, you need to ensure the safety of other employees."
The implication is that Manager Li should take good care of Hua Chang.
Manager Li understood Qi Mu's intention and his face darkened on the spot.
What kind of magic potion did Hua Shang give Qi Mu?
A CEO like him would actually come here to give her instructions just for a small employee!
But she had no right to refuse: "Okay, Mr. Qi, I will definitely protect them."
Qi Mu looked at Hua Shang with deep eyes, then turned and left.
After watching Qi Mu walk out of the office, Manager Li turned around and glared at Hua Shang angrily.
That look seemed to say - you're lucky.
Hua Shang didn't care about Manager Li's reaction. She stared at Qi Mu's back and felt complicated.
His protection was a little too obvious.
Are Qi Mu's feelings for her what she thinks?
…
Wang Shao followed Qi Mu and just as he walked out of Qi's, he couldn't help but ask, "Boss Qi, don't you plan to go take a look?"
"Even though you said that, Manager Li certainly wouldn't dare to harm Miss Hua openly, but what if she tries to trip her up secretly..."
After seeing how much Qi Mu cared about Hua Chang, Wang Shao felt that he also started to care about Hua Chang's safety.
Over the years, Qi Mu has been like a piece of ice that has not melted for a thousand years, and now he finally shows some humanity.
He sincerely hopes that Qi Mu and Hua Shang can achieve a happy ending.
Although Hua Chang's past is very dark, the CEO's chances of pursuing his wife seem slim.
"She doesn't dare." Qi Mu said in a firm tone.
Wang Shao's mouth twitched, and he sighed and explained, "Mr. Qi, she really doesn't dare to go against you, but you underestimated a woman's jealousy."
"The Qi family has something else to do." Qi Mu glanced at Wang Shao coldly.
Wang Shao immediately understood.
No wonder the CEO of the company would pass up such a good opportunity to be a hero and save the damsel in distress. It turned out that he had something going on at home.
He misunderstood the president.
"I'll get the car ready right away."
After saying that, Wang Shao walked quickly into the parking lot.
Qi Mu's eyes became deep, he was also worried about Hua Shang's safety.
But tonight, Mr. Qi said that he must go back.
He had to listen, as this was also to protect Hua Chang.
Old Master Qi had warned him that if he wanted to be a good leader, he must not be too interested in anything, so that he would not become addicted and would not have any weaknesses.
If the old man found out about what happened between them, he would definitely take action against Hua Chang.
Before his wings are fully grown, the old man cannot be allowed to discover Hua Chang's existence.
If he couldn't help Hua Shang in time...
Thinking about it, Qi Mu sent a message to Shen Changmin.
As long as Hua Shang is safe, it doesn’t matter even if the person by her side is not him...
At the same time, Manager Li reluctantly brought the two of them to the dinner party.
As soon as Manager Li entered the box, she felt President Xiao's eyes on her.
It was just that his eyes were a little sticky, but he didn't do anything inappropriate.
Manager Li knew in his heart that he was just a hypocrite pretending to be one, but he was actually playing tricks in private.
"Mr. Xiao, I brought a new person here." Manager Li forced a smile.
The implication was to tell Mr. Xiao to focus his attention on the newcomers.
"Oh? What newcomer? He still needs to be personally led by Manager Li?"
As expected, Mr. Xiao became interested.
The next second, when he saw Hua Chang walking into the box, Mr. Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank and he paused in his attempts to sober up.
The moment Hua Chang stepped into the private room, the atmosphere froze.
Mr. Xiao's gaze seemed to be attracted by a magnet, and his eyes were fixed on Hua Shang.
“Who is this…?”
Her long, shiny black hair was as smooth as silk, and her unmade-up face still had perfect features.
Her beautiful eyes are as clear as water, and they seem to hide the stars, shining brightly and captivating.
Mr. Xiao was originally planning to keep Manager Li tonight, but this idea instantly collapsed the moment he saw Hua Shang.
So beautiful.
He had never seen such a beautiful woman!
"She is our company's new designer, Hua Shang." Manager Li answered while observing President Xiao's reaction, and he couldn't help but feel more jealous.
This vixen can really seduce men!
"Hua, Shang." Mr. Xiao murmured again, with a glint of surprise in his eyes.
Even the name is so beautiful.
Mr. Xiao stared at Hua Shang in a daze, and the wine glass in his hand tilted unconsciously, and the red wine spilled out.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, is Mr. Xiao stunned?" Manager Li teased, then winked at Hua Chang: "What are you staring at? Didn't you see that Mr. Xiao's wine spilled? Why don't you refill Mr. Xiao's glass?"
"Need not."
President Xiao came to his senses and realized his previous gaffe. He coughed and acted like a gentleman: "Ms. Hua, please sit down. There's no need to be so reserved when discussing cooperation with me."
Seeing the project book in Hua Chang's hand, Mr. Xiao's eyes flashed with desire.
Faced with such a beauty, he had to use some other means to avoid scaring her away.
It's okay to force other ordinary things, but a beauty like this...
He still hoped that she would surrender.
"Miss Hua, please tell me about the project first."
