A morning kiss?
Lu Zhaoyang shot him a sideways glance.
Get it from your Ming Yue. I have a lot of work to do here!
She strode away.
Since when did this woman start to believe in gossip? Wait a minute! Was she jealous? Thinking of this, Huo Yunting smiled and was no more upset.
The breakfast on the desk aroused his appetite. He could tell from the aroma that it was Lu Zhaoyang’s cooking. He picked up the sandwich and took a bite; it tasted good.
A project called Autumn Water was open for tender in the city and Xiang Yuan Corp. would also bid for the project.
Lu Zhaoyang stood in front of Huo Yunting, silently looking on as he signed the documents. She wondered how much backlog of documents he needed to sign as she had been standing there for fifteen minutes.



President Huo, did you hear what I just said? Do you need me to repeat?
He would only start working when she came in and he would do anything but work when she left. He purposely wanted to give her a hard time.

It is not necessary. I will let you be in-charge,
he said.

Including the control of the budget?
She still did not have a clear picture of the current state of Thunderbolt, especially about the core financial data.

Now, I believe that pregnancy makes one stupid for three years.
Huo Yunting sneered at her. Of course, when he said that she was in charge; she was in charge of everything.
Lu Zhaoyang could feel that he was full of spite. She put down the contract documents.
I will leave it to you!
What Lu Zhaoyang actually wanted to say was that they might have an edge in the Autumn Water tender. She knew the project owner, who was a woman. She could use her relationship with the woman as a leverage.
The business world was a dog-eat-dog world where the end would usually justify the means to succeed. Naturally, Xiang Jinxi would not want to give up this opportunity without a fight. This guy was an ungrateful scum.
Just as Huo Yunting finished signing an important document, Lu Zhaoyang had disappeared before him. How dare she got angry with him when he should be the one to get infuriated. What was more, she had chosen to stay with Lin Yazhi instead of returning to his villa. Both Lu Zhaoyang and Lin Yazhi had a history of getting into trouble before and he did not think that Lin Yazhi had grown up a bit after four years. It would be no surprise that Yang Yang would have to take care of the two kids there.
Huo Yunting reined in his frustration and threw the pen away.
Three days later, Lu Zhaoyang submitted the Autumn Water bidding draft to Huo Yunting.
Read it and see if this is okay. We can refine it further. The project is important because if we can win it, it will at least hinder the advancement of Xiang Yuan Corp. in the city.

Huo Yunting took the draft and quickly flipped through the pages.
Not bad. Go ahead.



He just glanced at it once. Was he sure he had read it?

This is not a play, Mr. President. Please be more serious. You could not have possibly finished reading it that fast even if you could read ten lines at a glance!
Lu Zhaoyang snapped. Did he really take Xiang Yuan Corp. seriously? Why did he still have no sense of crisis when the Huos had already gone belly-up.

It is just Xiang Yuan Corp; there is no cause for concern.
Huo Yunting put the draft on the desk.
You should go out and unwind with me if you have the time. I am tired of all this work.

Lu Zhaoyang buried her face in her hands. Not wanting to waste time with him anymore, she took back the file.
Since Mr. President thinks that everything is fine and dandy, I will proceed accordingly.

Hot under the collar, Lu Zhaoyang returned to her office and felt much better when she saw Little Huo Xu was swiping his iPad on the couch.
Son, did you know how awful your father was? She said it in her mind. Taking a cup of water, she walked up to him.
Sweetheart, let’s drink some water.

Little Huo Xu put down the tablet and held the cup with both hands. He then looked up only to find her deadpan face.
