Meng Qianwei pushed Fang Cheng aside and walked into the office.
Huo Yanting was focused on his work when he was disturbed. His face darkened, and his sharp gaze was fixed on the doorway, his eyes seemingly filled with icy coldness.
Fang Cheng and Meng Qianwei were both startled by his icy gaze, "Yan Ting..."
"Get out!" the man shouted.
Fang Cheng quickly said to Meng Qianwei, "Miss Meng, the president needs to work. Why don't you wait outside?"
"No!" Meng Qianwei refused coldly, ignoring Huo Yanting's cold gaze, and walked straight to Huo Yanting's desk, looking down at the man, "Yanting, I want your maid. She's just a maid, and serving me is already giving her a lot of credit."
Huo Yanting's eyes turned even colder, his brows furrowing. "Didn't I make it clear to you last time? She belongs to the Huo family!"
How could the young mistress of the Huo family possibly work as someone's assistant?
"Even if she's from the Huo family, I'll still buy her freedom. How much do you want?"
money?
Is Meng Qianwei going to give Huo Yanting money?
This is an insult to Huo Yanting!
In the entire city of Haicheng, who doesn't know that Huo Yanting is incredibly wealthy? Would he ever lack money?
How dare a minor celebrity mention giving him money in front of him?
Huo Yanting's face darkened, a hint of mockery in his eyes. "Are you sure you want to give me the money?"
A counter-question made Meng Qianwei somewhat embarrassed, "But you won't let her go. She herself agreed, so why make things difficult for her?"
Huo Yanting was taken aback by these words. Had Su Miao agreed to it herself?
That stupid woman!
"You can go out first. I'm at work and have a meeting later!" Huo Yanting looked at Meng Qianwei with patience, hoping she would be sensible.
Seeing that Huo Yanting was indeed showing signs of anger, Meng Qianwei bit her lip and reluctantly retreated. However, before leaving, she turned back and said, "Yanting, there's no need to force her. Since she has already agreed, why insist on it?"
Huo Yanting's eyes were unreadable as he continued to keep his head down and attend to his own business.
...
When Su Miao returned home that evening, she was surprised to see Huo Yanting already in the living room. He had come home so early today.
Su Miao walked over, wondering how to greet him, but the man looked at her first and asked, "I heard you agreed to be Meng Qianwei's assistant?"
Su Miao was stunned. What? When did she agree to be Meng Qianwei's assistant?
She simply asked Meng Qianwei to ask for his opinion; she didn't say she wanted to be Meng Qianwei's assistant. Besides, she had already found a job, so why would she need to be Meng Qianwei's assistant?
However, Su Miao didn't know how to explain it to Huo Yanting, so she remained silent for a short while.
However, Huo Yanting interpreted this brief silence as tacit agreement. A dark glint flashed in his eyes, and he said with a mocking tone, "The young mistress of the Huo family really knows how to do things that lower her own status!"
Price drop? How did it drop in price?
She found a job through her own abilities, so how is that considered a loss of value?
Su Miao's eyes reddened slightly as she listened to what he said. Did he think that everything they did was beneath him and was shameful?
"If being the young mistress of the Huo family means being subject to such constraints, then I'd rather not be one!" Su Miao's tone was sharp, and the entire living room was deathly silent, her words echoing everywhere.
Inappropriate? Where is the other choice?
If he had a choice, he thought he shouldn't have met her in the first place!
Otherwise, so many things wouldn't be happening now!
"You have no choice now." Huo Yanting growled, standing up with a dark and piercing gaze. "This is your own choice, and you have no room for regret!"
