After failing to invite Huo Nanchu last time, Yue Yitang decided to ask him out again after finishing all her work.
"Brother Huo, are you free tonight?" Yue Yitang's melodious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Yes, there is." Huo Nanchu responded calmly and steadily, and gestured to his assistant Zhang Le to indicate that he could leave now.
Zhang Le nodded knowingly, gently picked up the documents on the table, then stood up and carefully left his seat. The whole process was completely silent; he even kept the sounds of opening and closing the door to a minimum.
"That's wonderful! I'd like to treat you to dinner tonight as a way of expressing my gratitude," Yue Yitang said excitedly.
“You treated us last time, so let me treat you this time,” Huo Nanchu replied gently.
"How can that be? I'm specifically thanking you for saving me last time. How about this, next time it's your turn to treat me?"
Yue Yitang revealed her little scheme: this way, she could have more contact with Huo Nanchu, and it would be great if they could treat each other.
"Yes, that's fine too." Huo Nanchu readily agreed, a barely perceptible smile appearing on her face.
Finally, after some discussion, the two agreed on a time and place for the meeting.
They agreed to meet at the Huo Group headquarters at 5 p.m.
Huo Nanchu originally planned to pick up Yue Yitang himself, but Yue Yitang said that it would be too troublesome and he would have to travel back and forth. It would be more convenient and faster for her to drive over herself.
And so, the two reached a consensus and looked forward to their upcoming meeting.
Huo Nanchu didn't even take a break at noon. He hurriedly ate a few bites of lunch and then threw himself back into his busy work.
He was completely focused and racing against time, just to finish all his tasks before five o'clock.
He then carefully selected and changed into a proper outfit before stepping out of the office.
Actually, if you don't look closely, it's hard for others to notice that he changed his clothes, because he was still wearing that classic black suit.
"Brother Huo, over here!" Yue Yitang had already arrived at his destination and was now standing by the roadside anxiously waiting.
When she saw Huo Nanchu walk out of the building, she immediately waved her arms excitedly.
It was rush hour, and the area was bustling with people.
Yue Yitang's clear and sweet shouts instantly attracted the attention of many passersby.
Everyone looked curiously in the direction she was pointing, only to see Huo Nanchu walk gracefully to Yue Yitang's side, then get into a luxury car with her and drive away...
Everyone looked on with curiosity and gossip. Most of them had seen Yue Yitang before, since she frequently visited the Huo Group when she was representing the Huo family.
Some people also recalled the last time Huo Nanchu brought Huo Jinning here.
So, some people started to have a heated discussion in the group. These two beauties each have their own unique charm, and everyone couldn't help but wonder who President Huo would ultimately choose.
Not long after, someone in the group confirmed that Huo Jinning was actually Huo's biological younger sister.
As a result, everyone felt that Yue Yitang and her CEO were a perfect match.
Some people even use AI to combine photos of the two people to predict what their future child will look like.
Of course, Huo Nanchu and Yue Yitang were unaware of the turmoil they had caused at this time.
Yue Yitang carefully selected a Jiangsu cuisine restaurant as the venue for the gathering.
"Brother Huo, do you like seafood?" Although Yue Yitang had already made a reservation, she still asked Huo Nanchu about his preferences so that she could make adjustments as needed.
"Yes, that's fine," Huo Nanchu replied simply.
"That's great! The Suzhou restaurant I frequent is really delicious, so I wanted to take you there to try it," Yue Yitang said happily.
"Okay, if it's delicious, I'll bring Ningning to try it."
As soon as Huo Nanchu heard about delicious food, Huo Jinning's cute little face immediately popped into her mind, and she thought to herself that she must bring her to try it.
"Okay, sure," Yue Yitang replied with a smile.
Then, silence fell over the car.
Both tried to find something to talk about to break the silence, but neither seemed to know where to begin.
Amidst this dilemma and awkwardness, they arrived at their destination.
"Tangtang is here!" The proprietress's voice rang out, soft and sweet, with a natural Jiangnan accent that sounded exceptionally pleasant.
As she spoke, she glanced curiously at Huo Nanchu, a hint of amazement in her eyes.
Yue Yitang and the proprietress were clearly very familiar with each other, and she said skillfully, "Sister Zhang, the usual is fine."
"Okay, I'll have your brother make it right away." Sister Zhang warmly invited the two to sit down, poured them tea, and then turned and left.
The interior design here is unique, giving people a fresh, elegant, and lively feeling.
The white-walled, black-tiled buildings complement the water features in the courtyard, creating a unique scene of small bridges, flowing water, and traditional houses, as if one were immersed in a beautiful ink painting.
The room incorporates various artistic techniques such as carving and painting. The carvings on the doors and windows are exquisite and delicate, showcasing superb craftsmanship in every detail, giving people a sense of simple yet comfortable living atmosphere.
After taking a sip of tea, Huo Nanchu couldn't help but exclaim, "The environment here is indeed quite nice."
He looked around, his eyes revealing admiration.
