Chapter 512 Guard Her Things
Immediately, someone chimed in, "That's right, didn't you see the news? Huo Yanmo was at his wit's end and had to kneel down on Dongshan Mountain to beg. We're not being sold to Yi Shi, so why can't we find another buyer?"
"You guys!" Xiaoyu was furious.
But there's nothing wrong with what they said.
Xiaoyu could only say, "Think about it, how has Sister Nian treated you badly these past few days? The salary and benefits are good, with bonuses and paid leave, much better than other companies. She's only temporarily injured, she'll be fine! Besides, there's the Huo family behind her, what are you afraid of?"
"What if she doesn't get better?" he asked, still the same troublemaker. "What if she just dies?"
"you!"
Xiaoyu couldn't find a way to refute it.
The crowd inside erupted in another noisy commotion.
There are all sorts of opinions.
"The Huo family is in the gemstone business. Even if they take over us, we'll be treated like stepchildren. We might as well switch jobs now while there are better opportunities available."
"Yes, Mr. Shi was seriously injured. I heard he's still in the ICU after all these days. I think it's going to be difficult for him."
"In short, I don't want to take such a big risk. Let's play it safe. I still have a wife and children to support."
...
The situation inside was completely chaotic.
Xiaoyu's eyes turned red with anxiety.
However, she also knew that everyone had their own reasons, and from a personal perspective, that was indeed the case.
So all they could do was worry helplessly.
Just then, Yi Shi's door opened again, and Secretary Xu pushed in a wheelchair, accompanied by a little girl.
It's Huo Yanmo and Sisi.
"Mr. Huo!"
Someone spotted them first and called out.
Then everyone quieted down and didn't dare to speak anymore.
When Shi Nian worked overtime with them before, Huo Yanmo was always there with her, and they all knew each other.
"Cough cough..."
Huo Yanmo coughed softly twice, his face still pale.
"Everyone, come to the conference room," he said hoarsely.
After saying that, he nodded to Xiaoyu.
Then the caregiver took her out first.
Huo Yanmo and Sisi arrived first. Huo Yanmo reached out and pulled a chair over for Sisi, letting her sit next to him.
Then the people playing chess quickly came in and found seats one by one.
Yishi is just a startup company with a small number of employees. Although the meeting room is a bit crowded, it can still accommodate everyone.
Xiaoyu was the last to enter. She nodded to Huo Yanmo to indicate that everyone had arrived.
Huo Yanmo nodded to indicate that he understood.
He glanced at the people present; many had their heads down, their expressions varied.
“Niannian is badly injured,” Huo Yanmo said, his voice hoarse from a high fever. “I know what you all think.”
No one spoke.
“If anyone wants to leave, I don’t think Niannian will stop them,” Huo Yanmo continued. “But I hope everyone will think back to their original intentions when they came to Yi.”
"Perhaps it's for the salary, perhaps for a future career, or perhaps it's just for her, for the Shi family, for Shi Yichen."
“You all know Yi Shi’s strength better than I do,” Huo Yanmo continued. “Besides Shi Nian’s personal abilities, there is also a mature operating system, the support of MKK, the shareholder of the rapidly developing Yu Yan, multiple order contracts involving multiple companies, and the endorsement of the Huo family and me.”
"As long as you do your job well, there won't be any problems."
Huo Yanmo looked at everyone present, paused slightly, clenched his fist hidden under the table, and continued, "Even if she's gone..."
Huo Yanmo lowered his eyes slightly and said, "The game will also function normally."
The entire room fell silent.
Many people were secretly exchanging glances.
After a long silence, someone finally spoke up: "President Huo, if President Shi really were gone, you would..."
The man didn't finish speaking, nor did he dare to.
But everyone knew what he meant.
The question was whether Huo Yanmo would remarry.
"No." Huo Yanmo answered without hesitation, "She is my only choice."
The group exchanged glances furtively.
They both saw their own thoughts reflected in each other's eyes—"That's what we say now, but who knows what will happen in the future?"
Huo Yanmo understood their thoughts and didn't say anything.
He simply turned his head to look at Sisi.
Sisi nodded, then stood up.
Although she was just a small person, her actions still attracted everyone's attention.
“Yishi still has me.” Sisi’s voice was childish but firm. “I am Mom’s first heir. Even if Mom doesn’t wake up, I will take good care of everyone.”
“I will always operate independently and will not be a stepchild,” Sisi said. “My father will provide me with help, and I will grow up quickly.”
As she spoke, Sisi clenched her little fists, her eyes reddening, and said, "But I still believe that my mother will wake up soon, and none of this will happen."
Huo Yanmo gently held Sisi's hand, his eyes filled with relief.
She was the one who chose the child.
Although the two are not related by blood, their personalities are very similar.
Huo Yanmo withdrew his gaze and said, "That's about it. Right now is the most difficult time for Yi Shi, and we need everyone to get through this together."
"Three days."
Huo Yanmo continued, "Sisi and I will give you three days to think about whether you want to stay or leave."
"Trust us, those who choose to stay with Yishi, we will not treat any of them unfairly."
After Huo Yanmo finished speaking, he looked at Xiaoyu to the side and nodded.
The door to one of the conference rooms was opened.
Huo Yanmo glanced at Sisi.
Sisi nodded as well.
Secretary Xu pushed the wheelchair and led Huo Yanmo and Sisi to Shi Nian's office.
Although they have been here many times before.
But this time the feeling was quite different.
Huo Yanmo walked up to her desk and looked at the things on it.
Various office supplies, the potted plant, and the photo frame on the desk.
Huo Yanmo held Sisi in his arms and reached out to take the photo frame.
There is a family photo of the three of them above.
He gently stroked the group photo.
Her traces are everywhere here.
The things she used, her habits, the decorations she loved.
I still vividly remember the scene of her falling asleep on the sofa when she was very tired.
Huo Yanmo gripped the photo frame slightly, suppressing his emotions.
The high fever made him slightly dizzy. He paused for a moment, then reached out, grabbed a watering can, and watered the potted plant.
"I will protect everything about you," Huo Yanmo said softly. "Everything will be alright. Once you recover, we will restore their glory."
Huo Yanmo put down the kettle in his hand, looked at the group photo again, and gently stroked her face in the photo.
"Don't let it get worse, get better soon, okay?" Huo Yanmo's eyes were red. Thinking of the emergency rescues he had received time and time again, he lowered his eyes slightly. He was really afraid of losing her.
