Cheng Anning had to ask for leave from the company because she was preparing to visit the old house to sweep the grave.
It's just that it's easy to ask for leave from Chen Sinian, but it's difficult to hand over work, because she is still stationed at Huo Group.
After all, the previous task has not been completed, and she is still staying in Huo's with Director Chen Lanchen.
"Ning'an, you didn't come two days ago, what happened?"
Cheng Anning made a random excuse, "I was sick and had a fever two days ago, so I didn't come."
"How is your health now?"
"It's alright. Thank you, director, for your concern."
Chen Lan really likes this girl who looks ordinary and wears very rustic clothes. After all, she can complete everything she is given very well, and she doesn't push around or be pretentious.
Not to mention the way this girl was taunting reporters in English last time, Director Chen liked it very much.
"It's okay. Young people should pay more attention to their health and balance work and rest. Our mission this time is almost completed. You can edit my music score."
With that said, Director Chen handed his manuscript to Cheng Anning and went to do other things.
Cheng Anning began to sort out the manuscript. She was not really an outsider and had a deep understanding of music scores. She had a natural sense of music, not just on the piano.
It's just that Cheng Anning has always been very shy. She knows that she didn't graduate from a major, so no one believes her.
When the monthly manuscript was sorted to the end, Cheng Anning frowned slightly. The melody of the last sentence was not smooth and seemed to be too loud compared to the prelude.
It seems like an anticlimax.
The handwriting at the end is very messy, with deletions, deletions, and changes. Apparently Director Chen has been stuck on this paragraph for a long time.
Cheng Anning thought for a while, decided to write a manuscript, and then carefully thought about the last sentence.
Since she didn't have an instrument at hand, she could only compose music based on the melody in her mind.
This is very difficult in the eyes of outsiders, and can only be accomplished by geniuses.
But Cheng Anning looked very relaxed. He closed his eyes and tapped his fingers on the table from time to time. It didn't take long for him to write the last paragraph.
She sorted out her manuscript and looked at the time. She got off work at six o'clock.
When she packed her things and was about to leave the company, Catherine, one of Mr. Huo's secretaries, came over with a strange expression.
"Wait, don't leave, Mr. Huo asked you to stay."
Catherine herself felt awkward saying this.
He looked Cheng Anning up and down, as if he couldn't figure out why Mr. Huo treated this woman so differently.
Catherine was so embarrassed that she had to inform her.
But Cheng Anning was a little reluctant.
Although her relationship with Mr. Huo has eased a lot in the past two days, it does not mean that she wants to make their relationship public.
Mr. Huo's identity is too eye-catching. Once exposed, she will become a public enemy.
"Did Mr. Huo say something?"
Catherine rolled her eyes and said, "This is Mr. Huo's order. Why are you asking so many questions?"
Cheng Anning didn't ask any more questions, just sat back and waited.
Catherine also stood still.
Not long after, Huo Yan came down, followed by several people, all of whom were senior executives of the company and Huo Yan's loyal subordinates.
They seemed to have just finished a meeting, holding thick documents in their hands and reporting on matters as they walked.
Huo Yan handed over the contract in his hand and said: "Just follow the above and handle the matter as soon as possible. That's it for today. Let's call it a night."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
They just said it was 'dispersed', but several senior executives didn't leave. They all stretched their necks to look at it, with curiosity in their eyes.
Because they all heard it during the meeting, Mr. Huo also specifically asked Catherine to keep someone behind.
They all want to know who 'that person' is.
Huo Yan walked straight towards Cheng Anning and said, "Let's go, what do you want to eat?"
Cheng Anning faced everyone's gaze and said calmly: "I'm not picky about food."
"Well, then I've decided."
"good."
Both of them were very calm. However, the senior executives behind them were so frightened that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
The familiar attitude between these two people is shocking.
What is the relationship between this man... and Mr. Huo?
Catherine paled even more, thinking about what she had done before, a cold sweat broke out down her back.
Cheng Anning saw their stunned expressions and retreated inwardly. If possible, she would have liked to pretend that she didn't know Mr. Huo.
"Let's go."
Huo Yan walked forward first, and Cheng Anning followed like a little daughter-in-law.
After getting in the car, Cheng Anning's tense heartstrings relaxed, but her face was wrinkled.
She could imagine how many people in the company would guess her identity tomorrow.
"how?"
"Um... Mr. Huo, let's discuss it? Can you pretend you don't know me in the company?"
Huo Yan narrowed his eyes, a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.
"You don't want to have anything to do with me?"
Cheng Anning didn't realize the danger, and sighed deeply, "You are too popular, I will be torn apart by them."
Inexplicably, Huo Yan showed a faint smile, "No."
Soon, the car drove to a high-end private restaurant.
Huo Yan made a reservation there.
There are special people to greet them at the door and lead them in.
The restaurant serves Japanese food, and the whole layout is Japanese style, with small bridges and flowing water, which is very elegant.
Cheng Anning took a second look.
After entering the private room, there are dedicated people washing and making tea. Their movements are smooth and smooth, which is pleasing to the eye.
This was Cheng Anning's first time here. Her eyes were full of curiosity and she could not take her eyes away. Her eyes were big and bright.
She was watching the tea master making tea, and Huo Yan was watching her, feeling inexplicably happy.
There is a...satisfaction of having a pet.
The cell phone in his arms rang. Huo Yan glanced at it and said, "I'm going to answer the phone."
After that, he got up and left.
Cheng Anning finally drank tea, but Master Huo didn't come back after waiting for a long time.
She didn't want to eat first, so she wanted to get up and look for someone.
After walking around for a while, I couldn't find anyone and almost got lost.
She had no choice but to give up and prepare to go back the way she came. Suddenly she heard a sobbing sound, like someone crying, mixed with the sound of tiny voices.
Cheng Anning followed the sound and suddenly saw a pair of figures hugging each other behind the small bamboo forest.
The man's back was turned to her, he was wearing a familiar black suit, his back was slender, and he was high-spirited.
And in his arms was a woman wearing a white dress, her back trembling, accompanied by cries.
The man's big hand gently patted her back.
"Third Master, I've been feeling very uncomfortable these days. I want to find you, but I don't dare to. I'm afraid you won't want me."
It’s Xu Manman!
Cheng Anning's eyes widened and he subconsciously hid his figure.
"You clearly promised that you would not leave me behind. I have been waiting for you to come back."
Cheng Anning didn't hear what Huo Yan said.
Just looking at the couple embracing each other, I also saw Xu Manman standing on tiptoes and kissing Huo Yan.
Her eyes stung.
She didn't look any further, turned and left.
With a feeling of relief and pain.
So Cheng Anning didn't see Huo Yan push Xu Manman away at the last moment.
He said: "Well, I broke my promise, but I will compensate you." This chapter has been completed!
