After Wen Man finished speaking, there was silence on the other end for a long time.
Each other could hear each other's subtle breathing. Gradually, Huo Shaoting's breathing became heavier.
But in the end he just said lightly: "Okay!"
He asked her to meet at a French restaurant in the evening, but Wen Man refused, so she whispered: "Let's talk in your office!"
Huo Shaoting said nothing and clearly refused.
Wen Man asked him for help, but still compromised: "Okay!"
…
After hanging up the phone, Wen Man was in a daze for a long time.
When she got involved with Huo Shaoting again, she knew very well that he wouldn't help her unless she paid something. Maybe he had already laid out a plan and was waiting for her.
Huo Shaoting, the person she could never touch...
Because she was thoughtful, Wen Man was absent-minded all day long.
When the little wolf dog came in with the report, he threw it away and said, "Don't tell me that the new guy you hired named Fang really has a lot of skills. His work ability is very good, and his salary is not high! I don't see that you still have capitalists.
The potential!”
Wen Man looked through the report with a calm expression.
The little wolf dog sat down on the desk and observed her carefully: "I'm still not happy about making money every day. Why do you think this woman is so difficult to serve? Is it because you lack moisture? How about I satisfy you? That's it.
You will have endless aftertaste after using it, and you will immediately forget about that person named Huo!"
Wen Man closed the report: "5,000 yuan deducted!"
The little wolfdog screamed: "What's the reason!"
"Harass your boss!"
"Damn! How many little girls want to harass me, but I don't even bother to bother with them!"
…
Wen Man ignored him. She asked him for a cigarette, lit it and put it on the table to burn quietly. She stared at the scarlet cigarette butt in trance.
The little wolfdog knew that something was wrong with her.
"Why do women smoke second-hand smoke!"
"Are you worried? Why don't you do it with me? I'll make sure you forget all your worries!"
…
Wen Man asked him to go out.
Zhou Muyan was angry and aggrieved: "I care about you! Don't be ungrateful!"
Wen Man looked at him calmly: "I heard that you attended the party until three in the morning last night and were an hour late this morning. Zhou Muyan, if this happens again, you don't have to come!"
The little wolfdog felt a little guilty.
He was just having fun last night, but you can't blame him. Ever since he arrived in City B, he has been as pure as a monk. Besides, facing this woman's cold face every day, the taste in his mouth is almost gone.
After playing last night, he was full of energy!
He squeaked: "I don't have to play...it's just...that's it! Nothing new."
Wen Man didn't want to interfere with his personal life, as long as it didn't affect his work.
She went to a French restaurant in the evening and didn't ask him to send it off.
…
Wen Man got out of the taxi and Huo Shaoting was waiting for her at the door.
The entrance of the restaurant is quite atmospheric.
He was dressed formally again,
Black shirt, dark gray tie, black handmade three-piece suit.
With broad shoulders and narrow waist, he has a very beautiful figure, not to mention his noble spirit. Anyone who comes and goes will take a few glances at him.
Wen Man couldn't help but look at him deeply, and then stopped.
Huo Shaoting walked up to her with a deep look: "Why don't you let Zhou Muyan see you off? If it's inconvenient next time, I'll pick you up!"
Wen Man wanted to say, 'There will be no next time,' but she swallowed it hard after thinking about what she was asking for.
She forced a smile: "It's like taking a taxi."
Huo Shaoting said no more and led her in.
He booked the entire French restaurant, probably because he wanted to have a quiet space to talk, but Wen Man felt pressured instead. When she sat down to order, she said softly: "There is no need to spend such money!"
Huo Shaoting didn't care what she ate, it was all up to her.
He took a sip of the pre-dinner wine and smiled slightly: "Wen Man, we have been well for a long time, but we don't seem to have many private dates like this. This place is quite nice. Can we come here often?"
Wen Man ordered two set meals.
After she thanked the waiter, she looked at Huo Shaoting, who was leaning on the back of his chair and watching her.
He does look good!
Under the luxurious crystal, he is more dazzling than the light.
Wen Man took a sip of boiled water and said with difficulty: "I want to ask you about Jingchen and Bai Wei..."
Huo Shaoting put down the cup in his hand and gently rubbed the cup with his slender fingers. His expression and posture were like stroking a woman... but he was noble and elegant.
He smiled softly: "We'll talk about business after dinner!"
Wen Man had no appetite, so she forced herself to eat a little. She didn't want to show that she cared about the past, and now she asked him for help, but she also had to show her attitude.
Huo Shaoting was much more comfortable than her. He occasionally asked her about work matters, and even Zhou Muyan could talk to her for a word or two.
Bai Wei and Yao Zian’s divorce was not mentioned at all.
Half an hour later, Wen Man couldn't help it anymore. She put down her knife and fork and said, "Lawyer Huo, we are not reminiscing today!"
"I know!"
He looked deeply and asked her softly: "How do you want to talk?"
This statement stopped Wen Man and asked, how to talk about it?
How could she talk?
Huo Shaoting served the after-dinner wine and said in an understated tone: "You want to intercede for Bai Wei Jingchen? But Wen Man, you may not know that Yao Zian has approached me a long time ago. He offered me quite generous terms to help him fight.
This lawsuit is worth almost one-third of the Yao family's net worth, so I rejected it... It also gives Bai Wei face!"
After he finished speaking, he began to taste the wine and looked at her carefully.
Wen Man believed what he said.
Yao Zian and Bai Wei, he stood neutral and did not help anyone, and then waited for her to ask for help. Huo Shaoting is such a scheming and scheming person!
She was speechless for a long time...
Huo Shaoting suddenly smiled softly: "It's strange to say that! Jingchen and Bai Wei had a baby not long after they got together. We did a lot of things, but we didn't get pregnant?"
This is a bit of a rogue thing to say, and it’s still in a high-end restaurant.
Wen Man was a little annoyed.
She suppressed her voice: "Lawyer Huo, I come to talk to you sincerely!"
Huo Shaoting raised his cup gently and smiled again: "Director Wen, to be honest with you, I came here with seduction tonight, are you not tempted at all?"
Wen Man couldn't help but look at him like this.
Really hiring!
It’s really tempting for women!
She awkwardly tried to look away, but Huo Shaoting's tone became serious in vain, and he said seriously: "I didn't want to say it in such an atmosphere, but Wen Man, if you insist on my answer, then I will tell you...
Come back to me and I will help Bai Wei fight this lawsuit!"
Wen Man's heart heaved.
Even though she was prepared, she still lost her composure slightly. The circles under her eyes were red, as was her straight nose, which was so white and red that it looked strange and painful.
She pulled up her chair and stood up, saying expressionlessly: "Never possible!"
"Yeah?"
Huo Shaoting said lightly: "That's a pity!"
His mood was not affected, but he was quite gentle: "Eat more, you will lose a lot of weight these days!"
Wen Man closed her eyes slightly: "Huo Shaoting, you bastard!"
He calmly wiped his lips with a napkin and said softly, "Then this bastard is waiting for you, Wen Man. I told you that I was just here to seduce you tonight."
