Chapter 155 I never expected that Mr. Huo was already married at such a young age.
The atmosphere in the spacious and bright office seemed a little serious.
"Honey, there's a lounge inside. If you feel tired, go in and take a rest."
"It's okay. I'll just sit here. You go do your thing."
Huo Chenqi smiled and nodded, then returned to his desk and gently pressed the intercom line.
Not long after, there was a slight knock on the door.
Huo Chenqi said in a low voice: "Come in."
Xu Nuo pushed open the door and walked into the room. When he saw Luo Yao sitting on the sofa reading quietly, he couldn't help feeling a little scared.
He had just arrived at his office when he heard them say something had happened downstairs.
Fortunately, the secretariat was not involved in this matter.
Xu Nuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he deeply admired the young lady's rigor in the workplace and the domineering aura she exuded.
Xu Nuo called out respectfully, "Young Madam."
Hearing the voice, Luo Yao raised her head, her eyes met Xu Nuo, and she nodded slightly as a greeting.
Then he turned to Huo Chenqi and shouted, "President."
Huo Chenqi looked at Xu Nuo with a serious expression and asked, "Do you understand what the lady said downstairs just now?"
Xu Nuo quickly replied: "Understand."
"Give orders, if anyone dares to gossip behind my back again, they will be kicked out of the company immediately! In addition, everyone must recite the company rules again, and I will conduct random checks from time to time!"
Xu Nuo straightened up and responded with a serious and solemn expression: "Understood, President."
Then the man added: "If it's not something particularly important, don't bother me."
"Okay." Xu Nuo replied, then turned and left the office.
The moment he walked out of the office, he let out a long sigh of relief, thinking that the atmosphere in the office was so heavy that it was suffocating.
He thought that life would be better after the young lady came back, but he never expected that the young lady was the real big shot.
Who on earth did I offend?
Not only does he have no girlfriend, but he also has to work overtime every day. If he continues like this, he will sooner or later lose touch with the world.
……
At this time, colleagues around came over and asked, "Xu Zhu, what happened? What does the president want to see you about?"
"Yes, Assistant Xu, was that your wife just now? She looks a little different from yesterday."
Facing the numerous inquiries, Xu Nuo shouted impatiently: "Shut up! If you don't want to be fired, stop gossiping here!"
One of the employees seemed quite dissatisfied with Xu Nuo's attitude and muttered, "Tsk, she's just a woman, what's so great about her? She's just relying on the president to back her up."
When Xu Nuo heard this, his face instantly darkened and he warned, "I'll say it again, don't bring up topics that are not related to work again, or you'll bear the consequences! Forget it this time, but if there's a next time, you'll just pack up and leave!"
"Humph, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. It's no big deal."
"Remind you, the lady is not as simple as you think. Don't mess with her. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, don't blame me for not speaking up for you."
After Xu Nuo said this, he turned and went into his office.
After a while, the company's announcement came out, sparking a lot of speculation...
However, no one dared to make comments easily anymore, for fear of losing their job for speaking too much.
In a secluded corner, a woman's voice suddenly came: "Xixi, you don't know, that bitch is so majestic, even Mr. Huo obeys her. I think it won't be long before the Huo family will change hands."
The person on the other end of the phone remained silent.
"Xixi, please say something. When are you going to come back? If you don't come back now, it might be too late."
"I will go back, but not now," the other party replied.
"Then you'd better hurry up. I can't help you much." The woman said helplessly.
"Thank you for your support. I will definitely bring you a gift when I return."
"Xixi, why are you so polite to me! If it weren't for you, how would I have the chance to enter the Huo family?" The woman said with emotion.
"Haha, it's your own ability. I didn't help much. Well, I'm busy now. I'm hanging up now."
"Okay, come back soon."
"Beep beep..."
The woman listened to the hang-up sound on the phone and shook her head helplessly.
She put her phone in her pocket, looked around, and walked out after a while as if nothing had happened.
Then she returned to her office area.
……
The president's office was exceptionally quiet, with only the sounds of keyboard typing and book pages turning coming from time to time.
Luo Yao was concentrating on the book in her hand. She had just picked this book up at random from the bookshelf next to her, but as she read, she was unconsciously immersed in it.
"Knock down..."
"Enter."
As the door was pushed open, a woman walked in.
However, Luo Yao was not disturbed and was still immersed in the world of books.
"Mr. Huo, how are you?" A gentle voice sounded.
"Boss Mo, how come you have time to come here today?"
When Huo Chenqi saw the person coming, he immediately stood up and walked forward.
"It's because you haven't been in the company for a while, so I had to make several trips in vain." The woman said coquettishly.
"I'm sorry, I went to visit my father-in-law some time ago. You can talk to Assistant Xu about cooperation."
Hearing the word "father-in-law", the woman showed a surprised expression and said in a tactful tone: "Oh? Father-in-law? I didn't expect that Mr. Huo was married at such a young age."
Huo Chenqi walked gracefully to the sofa, gently took Luo Yao's hand, and introduced her: "This is my wife, Luo Yao."
The woman immediately smiled flatteringly and said enthusiastically: "So this is my sister-in-law. I am the general manager of Jianfeng Company, Mo Nan."
"Oh, I'm so sorry. Today is the first time I met my sister-in-law, and I didn't prepare any gifts. It's really rude! I will make it up to you next time I have the chance."
Luo Yao smiled politely and replied, "Hello, Miss Mo. No need for a gift. I really can't think of anything to give you in return."
However, she keenly noticed the embarrassment and unnaturalness that flashed across Mo Nan's face for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
Then, Mo Nan began to tease: "Sister, how do you usually maintain your figure? You keep such a good figure, no wonder President Huo would leave his busy company affairs and accompany you back to your parents' home for such a long time."
