Chapter 268 - Mrs. Huo
Mo Yan came to the front desk of the Su Corporation. Just as she was about to explain why she was there, she saw Su Hai teasing the young girl at the front desk. He was telling a cold joke from the last century, and he even wanted the young girl to cooperate with him.
The rumors were true that he really had a thing for beautiful women.
Mo Yan coughed lightly.
Su Hai turned and his eyes lit up upon seeing Mo Yan. He looked like a child with a new toy as he actively approached her, saying, “Hey, isn’t this the beauty from the charity gala? What’s your name again?”
Mo Yan only smiled. Luckily, Su Hai still remembered her.
“My name is Mo Yan. I’m here today to negotiate a contract with you. You said before that you didn’t want to discuss work at the gala. Now that we’re in the office and it’s working hours, it should be convenient, right?”
“Come on up with me.”
Su Hai was a little unhappy. He reluctantly shifted his body and looked at the young lady at the front desk. “Wait here. I’ll tell you a joke when I’m done.”
The young lady at the front desk smiled bitterly, glad that Su Hai had finally been called away.
Su Hai returned to his office and sat down on the chair. He immediately put away his slack appearance and looked at Mo Yan from top to bottom. “Miss Mo, how should I address you? Is it the chairman of Mo Real Estate? Or is it Mrs. Huo?”
Mo Yan’s eyes widened and she froze on the spot.
He knew?
Just a moment ago, he looked as if he couldn’t even remember her name, but when he turned around, not only did he know that she was from the Mo family, he even knew about her relationship with Huo Zhen. One had to know that Huo Zhen used Luo Tao’s alias in the past, and almost no one knew his real appearance.
“Little beauty, don’t be afraid. I have business dealings with Huo Zhen, and there are ways of finding out about things that I want to know.”
Su Hai smiled evilly, his eyes still sweeping over Mo Yan. “I just didn’t expect that Huo Zhen, who has never been close to women, likes beautiful women, just as I do.”
Mo Yan did not feel glad to be praised by Su Hai in this manner. Instead, she felt uncomfortable.
She squeezed out an unnatural smile, “It’s really not convenient to tell you more about Huo Zhen and me. Let’s talk about collaborating. This is the contract that our company drew up previously. You can give a general direction and we can discuss some details when the time comes.”
As Mo Yan spoke, she handed the contract to Su Hai with both hands.
Su Hai took the contract and lazily flipped through two pages. His gaze lingered on Mo Yan for a few seconds. During the charity gala, he was very interested in Mo Yan. Not only was he willing to throw money at her, but he was even willing to use his own connections to search for her after she had disappeared without reason.
He had also received the letter from the kidnappers. At that time, he intended to pay up to make Mo Yan feel grateful towards him…
However, all of this ended when he found out about the relationship between Mo Yan and Huo Zhen.
Who was Huo Zhen? He had money and means. Everyone was looking forward to working with him; no one wanted to provoke such a powerful enemy. Although he could not bear to part with Mo Yan, he was still very clear about how to handle her. She was just a woman. Without Mo Yan, he could still find another one.
There was no need to offend Huo Zhen over this matter.
Su Hai looked through the details of the contract seriously while Mo Yan stood quietly at the side.
This was the contract that she had been following up on all this while, and it was also something that she had always wanted to do.
“Overall, I don’t have any problems. However, you need to change these two details slightly, or you can go back and reconsider it.” After Su Hai finished reading, he handed the contract to Mo Yan, “Does Huo Zhen’s woman have to work so hard? Is he not willing to give you money for spending?”
Mo Yan was about to retort that Huo Zhen had bought a company for her. However, she had never been a flamboyant person. Moreover, this was not something worth promoting.
“I still want to prove myself. I don’t want to rely on him for everything.”
Mo Yan looked at Su Hai solemnly. She really thought so.
“You’re really interesting.” It had to be said that Mo Yan was different from the women that Su Hai usually interacted with. She was more independent and had her own ideas. “Let’s have a casual dinner tonight.”
“I’m sorry. I have something on tonight.”
“Don’t worry, it’s just a simple meal. There’s no other meaning. You’re Huo Zhen’s woman. I have no need to offend him because of you.” Su Hai thought that Mo Yan didn’t want to have a meal with him because she was concerned about what Huo Zhen thought about it.
“That’s not it,” Mo Yan smiled. “Huo Zhen is returning tonight and asked me out for dinner.”
