Chapter 179 Will Huo Dongming go?

"For whom?"

An Lan's voice suddenly became sharp and piercing, and the assistant was startled.

Probably realizing her own abruptness, she quickly stopped talking.

Huo Dongming lit a cigarette and stared at her indifferently.

"What's the problem?"

An Lan felt a surge of air rushing directly from his lower abdomen to his throat, and even his breathing was gasping.

"No, no—"

She wanted to walk, but her feet seemed to be nailed to the floor.

"Boss Huo, can I ask why? Qin Meng is just a small star. Our company has many stars like her. I checked her background and she doesn't have any extraordinary background. Isn't it too much for the company to give her so many resources for the first time in history?"

Apart from her, Mrs. Huo only appeared in public with Huo Dongming once, attending the dinner at the same time as Huo Dongming.

As for Yi Xiaxue, that was an accident. Everyone knew how much she saved Huo Dongming's life, and no one could compare to her.

What does Qin Meng rely on?

An Lan was not convinced, as her questioning had gone beyond the scope of her job.

"You talk too much. If you can figure out some things, you can be more than just my secretary."

Huo Dongming's words made An Lan so angry that he wanted to hang himself.

She has been with him for five years, looking at all the beautiful girls around him. Based on the principle that she is the future Mrs. Huo, she observes the highest etiquette and maintains her elegance, hoping to impress Huo Dongming with her work ability.

Huo Dongming acknowledged her and took her to various major business gatherings, but after several years her status was still a secretary and she was not even a girlfriend.

An Lan was almost going crazy. Who the hell was Qin Meng to have the guts to crawl into bed with Huo Dongming? She was pretending to be reserved because she was blinded by greed. It turned out that what Mr. Huo liked was not ladies, but coquettish ones.

"yes--"

She lowered her head and left the office as if she was running for her life.

An Lan felt that he could no longer sit and wait for death.

After finishing this matter, she needs to sort out her thoughts. Huo Dongming is not someone she can get by pretending to be noble. She has to learn how to flirt.

…

Shang Wanwan went to Mrs. Chen's house in the afternoon. This time, Song Qiaosheng asked Yan Kexin to accompany him, and he went back to the company and said he would pick them up later.

Mrs. Chen waited for Shang Wanwan to finish teaching Chen Xin, and the maid made tea for them. The three of them sat in the flower hall, eating snacks, drinking tea and chatting.

"Wanwan, there is a dinner party tonight, come with me."

Mrs. Chen invited him enthusiastically, and Shang Wanwan hesitated just as she put the pastry to her mouth.

Yan Kexin said, "Are you talking about this charity event? I just happened to be invited, so I'll have company if I go with you every night."

Without waiting for Shang Wanwan to respond, Yan Kexin looked at her and said, "This kind of banquet is full of snobbish people, which I hate the most. But there is nothing I can do. I am Qiao Sheng's wife. If Wanwan were here, I wouldn't have to deal with those hypocritical people."

Shang Wanwan swallowed the refusal back when it came to her lips. They didn't even give her a chance to say no.

"It just so happens that I don't like it either. At the banquet, we got along well and sat at the same table. I'm too lazy to deal with those people. In the past two years, your brother-in-law's business has been growing bigger and bigger. In addition, he is involved in the field of science and technology. So many people come up to him to curry favor with him. I'm so annoyed."

Mrs. Chen took a sip of tea and looked at Shang Wanwan with a gentle look.

"If you agree, I'll have someone prepare some dresses for me. I just happened to have ordered a few sets, and those damned salespeople picked out clothes for young people to please me, and I couldn't blame them.

Wanwan, come upstairs with me later to try them on and pick out something that fits you. You have a good figure and a good temperament, so you will definitely look good in it.”

Shang Wanwan seemed a little embarrassed by Mrs. Chen's enthusiasm. She just wasn't used to other people being nice to her. Yan Kexin joked along.

"Big sister, I'm jealous of you for treating Wanwan as your tutor so well."

Mrs. Chen's eyes fell on Shang Wanwan and she said inconspicuously, "She is our Xinxin's teacher, so of course I have to be nice to her. I have decided to flatter Wanwan."

Mrs. Chen explained her special feelings for Shang Wanwan in a reasonable way, which actually dispelled the strange feelings in Shang Wanwan's heart.

Yes, it is normal for parents nowadays to treat teachers well for the sake of their children, Shang Wanwan looked at Mrs. Chen sincerely.

"Mrs. Chen, don't worry. I will definitely be responsible for Chen Xin since I have received a generous salary from you. You don't have to be so deliberate with me."

She felt relieved because Mrs. Chen had a purpose.

Mrs. Chen looked at her in reproach and glared at Yan Kexin deliberately: "Look, you are talking nonsense. Wanwan has misunderstood that I am a snobbish person. I even look down on people like that.

I really like you. You are a good person and treat Xinxin well. I have everything in my life except a daughter. Sometimes I really want to adopt you as my goddaughter so that you can always be with me."

Mrs. Chen's words made Shang Wanwan blush quietly. She was not good at socializing and could not say nice things.

She was overwhelmed when Mrs. Chen said she wanted to adopt her as her goddaughter.

Mrs. Chen had a daughter before, so she could understand her feelings. But when she looked at Mrs. Chen carefully, and Mrs. Chen didn't say anything, she realized that she was just being polite and joking, so why did she take it seriously?

Shang Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a faint smile: "Mrs. Chen, I'll go with you tonight. I have nothing else to do after teaching Chen Xin, and I'm free anyway."

Her words hit the mark for Mrs. Chen. Mrs. Chen and Yan Kexin looked at each other and both smiled with relief.

Mrs. Chen learned from Yan Kexin that Shang Wanwan and Huo Dongming had been having relationship problems recently. She was afraid that Shang Wanwan would be sad being alone at home, so she wanted to take her out for a walk.

Her current identity is somewhat awkward, neither a friend nor a family member. She racked her brains but could only think of this method, and she also had to conceal it so that Shang Wanwan would feel that everything was natural.

The three of them chatted at Mrs. Chen's house for the whole afternoon. When it was almost time for the dinner, Mrs. Chen asked Yan Kexin to help her choose clothes for Shang Wanwan. Mrs. Chen also asked Yan Kexin to choose one for her.

Upstairs, three women were changing clothes and chatting. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

The servants in the house were surprised when they heard the wife's laughter. The house had never been so cheerful before. The wife always looked serious and worried at home. It was the first time they heard the wife's happy laughter in the Chen family.

After choosing the clothes, the three of them went downstairs to wait for Mr. Chen and Song Qiaosheng. Chen Xin also changed into handsome boy clothes. He ran around downstairs and refused to listen when Mrs. Chen asked him to take a rest.

It was a rare opportunity to regain his identity as a boy, and Chen Xin gradually let himself go, having more and more fun on the road of mischief and joy.

An hour later, Mr. Chen and Song Qiaosheng's cars arrived at the same time. The three women walked out holding their long skirts. Shang Wanwan took a few steps and suddenly stopped.

Mrs. Chen and Yan Kexin looked at her in confusion. Shang Wanwan had an indescribable uneasiness in her eyes and asked in a low voice.

"Will Huo Dongming go to the party tonight?"
