"Um… Honey, am I intervening too much in your business?" Huo Mian asked with a smile, and Qin Chu replied with a question of his own, "You're so talented, isn't it a waste for you not to intervene?"
Huo Mian chuckled upon hearing this…
"Honey, I have to go now, I'm almost there . Let's talk tonight . "
"Okay, be careful . "
After hanging up, Huo Mian parked her car and headed upstairs . She asked Bella in front of the president's office, "Bella, is there any food? I'm starving…"
Surprised, Bella looked at her . "It's already two, you haven't eaten yet?"
"Do you have any fast food like bread or something? I just need a quick bite, the meeting's going to start soon . "
Before Bella could respond, Ni Yang walked up to her with a bento box in his hand . "Sis, I brought you some food . "
"Why are you here?" Huo Mian didn't expect to see him, who replied, "Jie just called me, she said you just left South Side and didn't have lunch yet . I was doing a dress rehearsal here at the company, so I got you something to eat . "
"Good boy, you make me proud . " Huo Mian lovingly rubbed Ni Yang's head; the young man who used to have depression was now a considerate, sweet guy .
Ni Yang placed the bento box down and poured Huo Mian a glass of warm water .
"Sis, you should eat, I'm going to head back now . I'll be at the company the entire day, so call me if you need me . "
"Sounds good . "
After Ni Yang left, Bella looked at Huo Mian a little enviously .
"Young Madam, you're so popular . Ni Yang's really hard to approach, most people can't even get close to him . "
"He's hard to approach? He's really not… You guys just need to get to know him," Huo Mian replied with a smile on her face as she opened up the bento box – Ni Yang sure was generous, he got her takeout from an expensive private kitchen that was famous in the city .
There were two meat dishes, two veggie dishes, and a bowl of red bean soup . Everything looked delicious . Famished, Huo Mian quickly devoured everything before taking out the designs for this afternoon's meeting and closely looking them over .
That afternoon, after a three-hour-long meeting with the design department, they decided on the company's spring line .
The press conference was scheduled for 8 PM that evening, at a hotel under GK . It was held in such a rush that Huo Mian didn't get to invite a lot of people .
Jiang Xiaowei offered her presence; she was pregnant but was still willing to come to support her and Qin Chu . Huo Mian was truly grateful to have a friend like her .
If Xiaowei was coming, Wei Liao, Tang Chuan, and Su Yu… would come as well .
However, Huo Mian didn't invite Su Yu, since it was just a new product launch and she didn't want the others to speculate them .
It was 5 PM when she left the company that afternoon . Huo Mian saw that there was still time, so she drove to the supermarket and bought some supplements before heading to Director Wu's home .
Director Wu lived in one of the high-end residential districts in the city . It was a townhouse and close to where Wu Xiaoxue used to live, so she found it fairly quickly .
She figured Director Wu was probably off work, so she nervously pressed his doorbell…
"Huo Mian?" Director Wu was surprised to see her .
"Director Wu . "
"What brings you here?"
"I'm here to bring you some presents, I've been slacking off and was scared that you would fire me . " Huo Mian smiled .
"Gosh…" Director Wu, usually a stern old man, burst out laughing upon hearing what she said .
After entering, she met Director Wu's wife, an enthusiastic woman . She was making dumplings and asked Huo Mian to eat with them .
Therefore, Huo Mian enjoyed a nice meal with Director Wu and his wife .
"Huo Mian, you wanted to talk to me about something, that's why you came, right?" Director Wu could tell that a lot of things were going on in Huo Mian's mind . Therefore, he cut straight to the chase .
Upon hearing this, Huo Mian slowly placed her chopsticks down and smiled apologetically . "How did you know?"
"Tell me what's going on, I'll do what I can to help," Director Wu said . He valued talented individuals and therefore treated Huo Mian very well . He was the reason she was promoted, time and again . It was not exaggerating to say that Huo Mian owed her current success to Director Wu .
"Director Wu… I…" Huo Mian choked on her words and hesitated, as if she were afraid to speak .
