Chapter 402: Promiscuous Relationship
Chapter 402: Promiscuous Relationship
Wu Kang was ashamed.
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, he quickly explained: "Boss Huo, I came here temporarily to meet a client."
Huo Qingzhou pulled his lips and said, "What client do you need to meet at the hotel?"
Wu Kang was vague and it took him a long time to explain.
Huo Qingzhou smiled and said, "Editor-in-Chief Wu, I just asked a few questions casually. Why are you so nervous? You haven't done anything wrong."
Wu Kang responded hastily: "Boss Huo, I just saw that you were too nervous. You are so powerful and have such a strong aura. Not only me, but anyone who sees you will feel pressured."
After saying a few words hastily, Wu Kang left quickly.
A chill ran down my spine.
He turned around and glanced at Huo Qingzhou curiously. He always felt that although this man was smiling today, that smile was really creepy.
But when I think about the fact that Huo Qingzhou is such a cold and aloof person, it is normal for him to show these expressions.
I hope I'm just overthinking it.
Huo Qingzhou continued walking forward and entered the hall.
There were several people following behind him.
Just as I was about to take the elevator, a familiar figure appeared before my eyes again.
Huo Qingzhou narrowed his eyes and took a closer look, and his gaze collided with that person's.
The man was obviously stunned for a few seconds, perhaps he did not expect to meet him in such an occasion. Knowing that the opportunity was hard to come by, he slightly adjusted his clothes and hair, pretended to be generous and walked up to Huo Qingzhou and said hello.
But I didn't get a response, but I was terrified by the man's gaze.
"Boss Huo, why are you staring at me like that..."
Huo Qingzhou sneered: "Miss Bai is so flustered that people who don't know would think you are busy having an affair."
Such bluntness made Bai Yu lose his composure.
She knew that Huo Qingzhou's mouth was as good as the boss's, but she didn't expect that the man would speak so bluntly when they just met.
Bai Yu smiled guiltily, pretending to be innocent, and explained that he suddenly appeared here today for work.
What he got was Huo Qingzhou's disinterest.
Bai Yu was frustrated and didn't dare to make any move. Huo Qingzhou had already warned her last time and she didn't want to be wiped out. She just thought that Zhou Ning was now thriving in the company and there was a risk of him surpassing her.
The jealousy in my heart is at work.
Bai Yu smiled deliberately: "Boss Huo, I remember what you said to me last time. I dare not act rashly. I know you are not someone I can reach. You don't have to worry about Zhou Ning. Zhou Ning has been performing very well in the company recently."
After coughing a few times, Bai Yu continued: "You don't know, recently a young and promising president took the initiative to come to our company and specifically asked Zhou Ning to interview him. Zhou Ning's reputation has spread outside."
"I don't know where Mr. Lin heard about Zhou Ning. He came to the office and talked with Zhou Ning for a long time that day. I guess they knew each other before and had a good relationship. Mr. Huo, you should know more about this matter than I do, right?"
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with inquiry.
Just as she was waiting expectantly, she didn't expect to see Huo Qingzhou's mouth curl up suddenly: "How could I not know whether my Ning Ning is good or not? Do I need you to praise her?"
"I……"
Bai Yu was almost choked by the man's words.
Huo Qingzhou snorted coldly: "Do you think someone like you is qualified to praise my wife?"
"Of course that's not what I meant. Seeing so many people like Zhou Ning, I'm just sincerely happy for her..."
Bai Yu explained intermittently, and suddenly realized that it was a wrong choice to take the initiative to talk to Huo Qingzhou this time. The man's mood was particularly wrong today, and he would explode at the slightest provocation.
Huo Qingzhou raised the corner of his mouth meaningfully: "If you have the time, you might as well worry more about yourself."
After saying this, he left neatly.
Bai Yu broke out in a cold sweat on his back. He couldn't figure out what was going on and knew it wasn't a good place to stay for long, so he had to leave quickly.
Little did she know that Huo Qingzhou was staring at her back with a ruthless look in his eyes.
After all, I was too kind to her.
People like this should be eradicated.
This time, he wouldn't care that the other party was in Wen Erya's company.
However, he would not attack directly, but would think of a clever way that would not cross the line and yet solve the problem perfectly.
Glancing at Zhang Cai who was following closely behind him, Huo Qingzhou immediately gave him a few serious instructions.
After Zhang Cai heard this, he thought about Huo Qingzhou's strange behavior after the phone call with him, and instantly understood.
"Mr. Huo, it turns out that your real intention today is not to inspect the hotel, but..."
Halfway through his words, Zhang Cai shut up in time after receiving a look from Huo Qingzhou. Everything was self-explanatory.
……
this day.
Zhou Ning came to the company and overheard ridiculous remarks.
After listening carefully, she found that they were actually discussing the relationship between her and Lin Kaichen.
Perhaps it was because Lin Kaichen took the initiative to come to the company and choose her last time, which led to many people's misunderstandings in private.
When Zhou Ning heard those unpleasant remarks and speculation that she might have some shameful relationship with Lin Kaichen in private, she couldn't help but said a few angry words to them.
When several people heard it, they were all frightened.
We were talking so quietly, yet someone still heard us.
Zhou Ning: "Are you guys so free? If you don't want to work here, you can ask anytime."
Those people were originally very excited, but now they dared not say a word.
Lin Xin understood the situation and chimed in, "Team Leader Zhou has nothing to do with CEO Lin! Why don't you just work hard in the company instead of gossiping about other people?"
This commotion attracted Bai Yu.
In fact, she had just heard everyone's gossip and took it in. It was not until she saw Zhou Ning getting angry that she came over.
As she looked at everyone, she put on an official tone: "This is the company, not a place for you to quarrel."
Then his eyes fell on Zhou Ning and he called her into the office.
Zhou Ning followed her in and sat down opposite her.
I originally thought that Bai Yu asked her to come over just because he didn't want the situation to get out of control, and maybe he wanted to understand the situation, but I didn't expect that the first thing Bai Yu said was:
"Zhou Ning, be careful about your words and actions in the company. Although you are Mr. Huo's wife, this is the Wen family's company after all, not the Huo family's. Everything should be done in moderation. You can't be too casual."
Zhou Ning said seriously: "How could I be casual? I was just defending myself positively."
Bai Yu: "I understand your feelings. Anyone who hears such words will feel uncomfortable, but this may not be hearsay. The behavior of having casual sex is not worth promoting."
Zhou Ning was in disbelief when she heard this. The other party's attitude at this moment seemed to be criticizing her from a moral high ground.
She decided not to consider the relationship between her superiors and her subordinates anymore, so she stood up suddenly and slammed the table.
"What nonsense are you talking about?! As a leader, shouldn't you investigate the situation first? Instead of criticizing me indiscriminately!"
"Before, I thought you were my leader, so I didn't take it seriously. It's normal to have bumps and bruises in the workplace. This time, you actually dared to insult my personality. Who is the one who is having a promiscuous relationship?"
The sound was so loud that I rushed out of the office.
Bai Yu glanced outside the office door with concern, feeling that there were many eyes staring at him.
She was worried that Zhou Ning would talk too much and affect her reputation, so she whispered to him, "Zhou Ning, pay attention to the occasion and keep your emotions calm in the workplace."
Zhou Ning slapped the table vigorously again:
"I can't calm down, stop accusing me!"
Before, out of consideration for workplace relationships, she had kept a nonchalant attitude, but when she was repeatedly not allowed to be happy, she simply went crazy.
If she is not happy, then no one with evil intentions can be happy!
Bai Yu was shocked to see Zhou Ning looking like she was ready to fight. He didn't expect her to be so combative and was almost scared by her.
As expected, after spending so much time with Huo Qingzhou, she already has the temperament of a wealthy lady.
After going "crazy" for a while, Zhou Ning walked out of the office.
Bai Yu's face turned dark, and impulse surged in his heart.
Since Zhou Ning was so disrespectful, she had to do something.
Even if Huo Qingzhou puts pressure on her, Er Wen is not a man's property after all. Her current position in the company is higher than Zhou Ning's, and she doesn't believe that she can't deal with a small team leader.
However, before she could realize her "ambition", she was about to jump to death like a grasshopper.
