Chapter 45 Fu Hengzhi catches her on a date with Huo Zhan
Su Muci's hand was held by him, and the man's deep, burning gaze made her heart tremble.
It seems he really is sick, otherwise why would he be saying such nonsense?
"Mr. Huo, your fever is so high, shall I accompany you to the hospital?"
"Don't worry, you won't get burned. Let's finish watching the movie first."
After Huo Zhan finished speaking in a hoarse voice, his Adam's apple bobbed, and the pressure in his palm tightened.
When will she realize that she is his cure?
Seeing his insistence, Su Muci didn't try to persuade him any further and turned her attention back to the movie screen.
The scalding heat gradually seeped into her palms through her skin.
She couldn't bear to watch any more of the movie.
The lights suddenly came on after the credits had finished rolling!
Su Muci immediately stood up: "Mr. Huo, the movie is over, I'll take you to the hospital!"
But the moment she stood up, he gently pulled her, causing her to stumble and fall.
The next second, she fell into his arms!
Her body pressed softly against his chest, and the taut muscles in her legs made her face flush red all the way to her ears.
As I hurriedly looked up, a magnified version of his sculpted, handsome face came into view.
"I'm so sorry..."
Su Muci tried to get up, but he grabbed her hand and made her fall back onto him.
If it weren't for his furrowed brows and sickly appearance, she would have suspected that he was deliberately doing something bad.
"Miss Su, it's just a slight fever, there's no need to go to the hospital."
"Then, shall we go out and buy some medicine? Please let go of my hand so I don't hurt you..."
Crushed?
He didn't even know it could be damaged by pressing it; he just felt it getting harder the more he pressed it.
Huo Zhan's Adam's apple bobbed again. Reluctantly, yet afraid of frightening her, he could only let go of her.
Su Muci quickly stood up straight, straightened her dress, and saw Huo Zhan sway as he stood up, as if he might faint at any moment!
She immediately stepped forward to support him: "Mr. Huo!"
Huo Zhan barely managed to stand up. "I'm so sorry to have troubled Miss Su to take care of me."
"Mr. Huo has helped me so many times, it's only right that I take care of you. Shall I help you out?"
Su Muci was about to take his arm when she saw him stretch out his arm and pull her into his embrace.
His arm rested naturally on her shoulder, and the two were as intimate as lovers in the throes of passion.
"Miss Su, is it alright to support me like this?"
"……Um."
Su Muci couldn't describe this strange feeling; he was holding her too tightly, which could easily lead to misunderstandings.
But let's leave here first!
The two walked out of the movie theater in an extremely ambiguous manner.
At the entrance, the three men who were waiting saw Su Muci and Huo Zhan walking out from the direction of the VIP theater!
A storm suddenly raged in Fu Hengzhi's eyes.
The young master's eyes widened in surprise: "Young Master Fu, isn't that Su Muci?"
"Were they the ones who booked the entire VIP room just now? Young Master Fu, who is that man?"
Fu Hengzhi gritted his teeth: "Zeron, Special Assistant to the President of the Huo Group!"
"What? The Huo family, who recently invested billions in your Fu Group? A mere special assistant can make the people at the cinema so wary?"
After one of the young masters finished speaking, another chimed in: "This Su Muci is quite capable. In order to embarrass our Young Master Fu, she deliberately found someone from the capital to try and put him in a better position!"
Upon hearing the last sentence, Fu Hengzhi clenched his teeth even more.
All the doubts that had been lingering in my mind vanished at that moment.
Why did Zero, who had no prior grudge against him, target him in every way after arriving in Jiangcheng? It turns out that he was being instigated and alienated by Su Muci!
When her strategy of playing hard to get failed, she started using other men to provoke him!
Just then, Su Muci's gentle voice came from not far away: "There's a pharmacy up ahead, shall I go and buy you some fever reducer?"
"good."
Although Huo Zhan was reluctant, he still removed his arm from her shoulder.
Seeing Su Muci turn and walk towards the pharmacy, Fu Hengzhi finally couldn't hold back and strode forward.
"Mr. Zeroon?"
His voice carried a hint of obsequiousness rarely seen in Young Master Fu's voice.
But this flattery was mixed with disgust, disdain, and contempt.
Even though the other party was just one of Huo Zhan's subordinates, he could still overpower him in Jiangcheng. He was unhappy, but he had no choice but to accept it.
The moment Huo Zhan turned around, his eyes regained their usual aloofness: "Young Master Fu?"
Fu Hengzhi said meaningfully, "If I may ask, was the woman you were with just now named Su Muci?"
Huo Zhan narrowed his eyes: "So what if it is?"
"Mr. Zeron may not know this since he just arrived in Jiangcheng, but that woman is my fiancée's stepsister. She's a master scheming manipulator!"
"Oh? She can scheme against people?"
Huo Zhan raised an eyebrow.
Seeing this, Fu Hengzhi smiled with satisfaction. Su Muchi, you really think you can climb up to Zero? With just a few words, I can completely expose all your schemes!
However, the next second, Huo Zhan chuckled and added, "Doesn't that sound adorable?"
"???"
Cute? Is this guy from Kyoto out of his mind? He's being schemed against by a woman and he seems to be enjoying it?
Fu Hengzhi's plan failed, and he couldn't help but get impatient, loosening his tie even more. "Mr. Zeroon, it would be quite inappropriate for someone as wise and intelligent as you to be renting out a venue for a woman in Jiangcheng if President Huo found out."
Huo Zhan's eyes changed instantly, and he lowered his voice: "Are you threatening me?"
The oppressive aura emanating from him was extremely strong.
Fu Hengzhi involuntarily lowered his voice: "I'm just reminding you."
"Since Young Master Fu has so much to say, why don't we talk somewhere else? How about the boxing ring?"
"!"
Fu Heng was already hospitalized after accompanying him to boxing practice last time, so he's unlikely to get hit again.
He gritted his teeth, thinking: This idiot, since you insist on being used as a pawn by Su Muci, then don't blame me for exposing everything you did in Jiangcheng to Huo Zhan in the capital!
"Mr. Zero is busy, so I won't keep you any longer!"
Fu Hengzhi turned to his two brothers and said, "Let's go! Let's go to karaoke!"
As soon as Fu Hengzhi and his party left, the cinema manager stepped forward and handed all the photos they had taken to Huo Zhan.
"Sir, here is what you requested."
He took it and browsed through it one by one.
The photos show Fu Hengzhi, impatient while waiting, violently hitting staff members on the forehead and kicking their knees.
A faint smile appeared on Fu Hengzhi's lips.
Just then, Su Muci came running back carrying a bag of medicine.
Huo Zhan immediately put away the photos, regaining his previous weak appearance, holding his forehead with one hand, and walking unsteadily.
Su Muci helped him sit on the sofa in the rest area, poured him water, gave him a fever-reducing pill, and then gently placed a fever-reducing patch on his forehead.
Huo Zhan was obedient and compliant throughout, and Su Muci helped him back to the car.
...
Meanwhile, Fu Hengzhi was editing an email in a KTV private room.
The recipient is the publicly disclosed whistleblower account of the President's Office of the Huo Group!
[Mr. Huo, Greetings! I am writing today to report that your company's First Special Assistant, Zero, is abusing his position for personal gain in Jiangcheng! He has been misled by a woman named Su Muchi, maliciously targeting elite executives in Jiangcheng's business community, severely damaging your company's reputation. Please investigate this matter thoroughly!]
Before the anonymous email could be sent, a phone call suddenly came in.
The moment the call connected, Fu Leiting's thunderous roar came through the receiver: "You unfilial son! What's wrong with you! Didn't I tell you to be careful lately? You've been anonymously reported again!"
Fu Hengzhi: "???"
