"In your dreams… I'm not giving the cigarette back to you… If I find out that you're smoking again, I'm going to…"
"What are you going to do?" Huo Mian laughed and asked Su Yu before he could finish his thought .
"Forget it . You're so omnipotent, no one can do anything to you, just get going…" Then, Su Yu turned around and went back into his room, while Huo Mian followed the waiter into Rick's office .
- VIP Room -
Su Yu carefully removed the cigarette from his ear and touched it carefully, unwilling to let go .
He remembered all of her words and movements just now; whenever he thought of her, his expression would immediately soften .
- The top floor of Seductive Fox -
Huo Mian was surprised that Rick asked to see her, since he always contacted Qin Chu directly . Therefore, on the way to his office, she wondered if something happened to her husband .
After going in, she saw Rick sitting on the couch and holding his phone, seemingly up to something . Upon seeing Huo Mian, he stood up . "You're here . "
"Mhm . "
"Have a seat first . "
Huo Mian sat down and Rick's assistant immediately poured Huo Mian a cup of hot coffee .
"Did you speak with Qin Chu?"
"Yeah, we call each other every day . " Huo Mian nodded .
"Did he tell you how dire the situation in T City is?"
"He didn't, but it was an easy guess, or else he wouldn't still be there," Huo Mian replied calmly .
"The truth is, Qin Chu and I have been investigating someone…" Rick slowly said .
"Huo Siqian?"
"Smart…" Rick nodded .
"Did you find anything?"
"I think he's controlling Jiang Linyue, but I don't know how they contact each other, they've been really discreet… The people I sent to tail Huo Siqian haven't gotten any useful information either . "
"Will the problem be resolved if you find Jiang Linyue?"
"You can say that, we also need her to change her testimony to clear Qin Chu's name . We also need to know if the contractors in her stamped documents really participated in the forced demolition . That way, we'll find out if GK really participated, or if someone else did something so heartless and blamed GK for it . Qin Chu really cares about this accident… after all, five people died . "
"Yeah, death is a big deal . I know he's been trying to deal with this incident . "
"There are two things I wanted to talk to you about today . "
"Go ahead . " Huo Mian felt soberer as she looked at Rick, listening to him intently .
"One… you need to be cautious towards Huo Siqian . "
"I've always been cautious . "
"It's not enough… you probably have no idea how dangerous he really is… Overall, you really need to keep as much distance away from him as possible . "
"I will . " Huo Mian nodded; she knew Rick wouldn't say something like that for no reason . "What's the second thing?" she asked .
After a few seconds of silence…
Rick slowly asked, "I wanted to know… what's a good gift to give a girl on Valentine's Day?"
"Is it a present for your girlfriend Xixi?" Huo Mian laughed; she was shocked by how out-of-context Rick's question was .
Feeling shy, Rick nodded .
"Fresh flowers, of course . If she's your first love, then give her pink roses . If you are in your honeymoon phase, then red roses . If she's the love of your life, then blue roses . A rich man like you should at least buy 999 roses, right?"
"What else should I give her that'll make her happy?"
