World 1: The Damp Retired Third Generation X The Poor Little Colleague of the Former Female Lead 03



"Mr. Huo."

Fu Yu turned her head and met Huo Hanting's straight nose.

She had a faint fragrance about her, which was very noticeable in her home, but in the large space, the fragrance was infinitely diluted and compressed.

But once you smell it, you'll be uncontrollably captivated and addicted.

Huo Hanting pressed down on her arm.

"I'm looking for you."

Fu Yu blinked. "I'm not in charge of business development, but I can help you find a dedicated person in charge."

"I came here to find you."

"To be more precise, it's about poaching you."

Fu Yu is a specialist in the R&D team at the company. Although she is quite capable, there are two top technical experts above her, so her chances of getting ahead are slim.

The Chen family tried their best to prevent the Huo family from poaching these two key technical personnel.

Unexpectedly, Huo Hanting's grand arrival, with all the pomp and circumstance, was all for Fu Yu.

"Senior researcher, independent laboratory, ample funding, and a salary five times higher than Chen's."

This salary and benefits are very attractive even by industry standards.

Chen Manzi ran all the way to the office, completely exhausted.

She quickly asked her secretary to make her a cup of coffee.

The secretary, still shaken, brought in an iced Americano.

"Mr. Chen, your dining buddy has been poached."

"ah?"

"Huo Hanting from the Huo family came in person to invite Miss Fu Yu to work at the Huo family."

What?

Chen Manzi knew that the original plan for that night was for her to accidentally kiss Huo Hanting's chin.

In the end, Fu Yu kissed Huo Hanting's chin, but...

Did Huo Hanting fall in love with Fu Yu based solely on this?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible.

Chen Manzi admitted that she felt indebted to Fu Yu, and everyone in Shenzhen knew Huo Hanting's methods.

In her past life, she accidentally "molested" Huo Hanting, but instead of being silenced, she was pampered to the extreme.

It's all because of her stunningly beautiful face, which is famous throughout Shenzhen.

If it were any other woman, she would have been torn apart by five horses long ago.

So when Chen Manzi heard that Fu Yu had kissed Huo Hanting and even stood up for her, she silently felt that Huo Hanting would definitely take revenge.

Yes, that must be it!

High salaries and generous benefits are all lies.

He wanted to bring Fu Yu to his side, to torment her slowly, and to play with her gradually.

Chen Manzi subconsciously put down her coffee, wanting to go to the R&D department to stop Fu Yu from making a big mistake.

Just as I reached the door, I stopped in my tracks.

Huo Hanting is in the R&D department now. If she rushes over there rashly, won't she just run into him again?

What if he falls in love with her again and becomes obsessed with her?

Suddenly, the phone I was holding rang.

It is Fu Yu.

Yes, we won't meet in person; I'll just remind Fu Yu to be careful over the phone.

Chen Manzi stared at the names flashing on her phone screen, but couldn't bring herself to press the answer button.

If, hypothetically, perhaps, Huo Hanting is focused on punishing Fu Yu, wouldn't he be too busy to bother her?

Once she and Gu Huaisheng have consummated their relationship, she and Huo Hanting will become two parallel lines, with no possibility of ever intersecting again.

Besides, who knows what Fu Yu is up to?

Although she usually appears aloof and quiet, seemingly quite conservative and reserved.

Unexpectedly, she brought the man she had just met home.

Did she not have any romantic feelings for Huo Hanting?

Huo Hanting is also a well-known third-generation rich kid in Shenzhen. He is handsome, rich, and most importantly, he is the only man in this circle who has no scandals and is clean-living.

Why should she expose Fu Yu's little scheme?

Even if she tells Fu Yu the truth, will Fu Yu believe her?

Is it possible that Huo Hanting, who appears mature and composed, is actually a mentally ill person with a pathological desire for control?

She might even blame Chen Manzi for blocking her path to becoming the young mistress of the Huo family!

Chen Manzi gripped her phone tightly until the ringing and vibration stopped completely.

"Mr. Chen, whose phone was that? Shouldn't we call back?"

Chen Manzi took a deep breath. "Ignore those harassing calls."

"Tell the human resources department not to delay Fu Yu's resignation process. If she is willing to leave, process it as soon as possible."

"oh."

The secretary looked at Chen Manzi with a puzzled expression and relayed her words to the human resources department.

Fu Yu has already signed the resignation application.

Clear the records in the last minute before leaving get off work.

She officially became a member of the Huo family.

Chen Manzi has been having trouble sleeping lately, dreaming every night that Fu Yu has turned into a headless female corpse and is demanding her life. As a result, Gu Huai's attitude has also become colder.

Of course, it wasn't just because of Fu Yu.

That night, when she was working overtime, Chen Manzi thought it was just the two of them alone.

Unexpectedly, there was another girl who was an intern at the company and often volunteered to work overtime.

Chen Manzi disliked this girl for no reason and wanted Gu Huai to fire her, but it's not easy for a startup to train a newcomer.

Gu Huai's evasive reply only made Chen Manzi more disheartened.

What she wanted was unconditional favoritism, not hesitant, indecisive weighing of options.

That afternoon, Gu Huai appeared in Chen Manzi's office with 999 roses and knelt on one knee.

It was a very cliché method, but Chen Manzi found it particularly appealing.

She just loves to tell the whole world that a man as outstanding and handsome as Gu Huai belongs to her alone.

"Mr. Chen, Miss Fu Yu has started working at Huo's Group, but she's not going to a subsidiary; she's going to Huo's Group headquarters..."

Holding the flowers, Chen Manzi was immersed in happiness. "You must have misheard. The main business of Huo's headquarters has nothing to do with drones. What would Fu Yu be doing there?"

The secretary swallowed hard. "No... so Mr. Huo gave up his top-floor office for Fu Yu's lab, and now he shares an office with Fu Yu."

"What?"

Chen Manzi was taken aback.

I understood each word individually, but why couldn't I understand them when they were put together?

The secretary took a breath and said, "Mr. Huo put a desk in his office specifically for Fu Yu to work on."

Chen Manzi was hit hard.

Why is all of this so different from what I imagined?

My phone vibrated.

It was a chat group for Shenzhen University alumni. She had secretly joined the group to find out if any junior girls were flirting with Gu Huai.

At this time, the alumni group was full of photos of Fu Yu's desk.

"No, could this desk be any closer together?"

"I heard that President Huo's rooftop office has been turned into Fu Yu's personal laboratory. Wow, is this how a third-generation rich kid woos women? Should I lose some weight and try harder?"

"Oh my, just losing weight won't get you a rich woman. You should do some experiments."

With a thud.

Chen Manzi's phone fell to the ground.

This...this isn't right.
