Even though Ye Zhen said so, Huo Qiuguang subconsciously didn’t believe that there was a problem on his side.
However, when he thought of Huo Yichen’s methods, he gritted his teeth and got someone to check the surveillance cameras to look for the suspect.
Huo Qiuguang had been the general manager for 20 years and was about to retire.
His ambition to climb up had already been obliterated by time, but Huo Qiuguang didn’t want to abdicate so disgracefully.
All men cared about their face, especially at Huo Qiuguang’s age.
Although the matter of Ye Zhen coming to the Finance Department was not made public, the gossipy people quickly spread the news. Immediately, there were many guesses and rumors about Huo Qiuguang in the department.
It was also because of this that Huo Qiuguang couldn’t help but lose his temper the moment he returned home today.
He was like a typical gentle wolf in sheep’s clothing to the outside world, but he had started to become irritable and terrifying inside.
Huo Qiuguang, who was hiding his anger, had a bad expression on his face after returning home. Even the servants who were not good at reading people from their body language knew they had to restrain their voices to avoid attracting Huo Qiuguang’s attention.
“You can’t even do such a small thing! Why did I hire you?!” Huo Qiuguang’s angry roar could be heard clearly even by Huo Ya, who was in her bedroom on the second floor.
Hearing her father’s anger, Huo Ya trembled and curled up under the blanket. She held her cell phone in her hand and didn’t dare to make a sound.
She was naturally the one who stole the plan the day after Huo Ya contacted Huo Xiuyuan.
After the call suddenly ended, Huo Ya was confused for a moment. Not long after, she received a call from Huo Xiuyuan and his instructions.
“After all, the company will be mine in the future. Now that you’ve helped me, I naturally won’t mistreat you when I become the President in the future, Ah Ya.”

Moreover, your father is already so old and is still a Manager. Do you know what those people in the department say about him?”

“I know you like me the most, Ah Ya.”
The gentle tone that only appeared in her dreams made Huo Ya’s heart beat uncontrollably.
Hearing Huo Xiuyuan’s affectionate address and gentle tone, Huo Ya felt like she had returned to the past and her childhood.
“…Alright.” Hence, she agreed.
However, Huo Ya had never thought that this matter would implicate her father.
Or rather, she had only believed Huo Xiuyuan’s words at the beginning and purely did this without considering the consequences.
Had she done something wrong?
Just as this question appeared in Huo Ya’s mind, her phone, which was originally dark, suddenly lit up.
It was a call from Huo Xiuyuan.
Huo Ya’s fingertips were almost white as she held her cell phone. She stared at the name for a while, but she was afraid that the other party would be impatient, so she hurriedly answered the call and connected it with her Bluetooth earpiece.
Ah Ya, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to lose my temper with you like that today,” Huo Xiuyuan apologized.
This was far from what Huo Ya had imagined. She even felt a little at a loss and felt that it was her fault. She immediately felt some regret.
“It’s fine.” Huo Ya hurriedly blamed herself. “Maybe I’m too stupid.”
Huo Ya was still useful to him. After Huo Xiuyuan was contacted by the other party that day, he had this thought.
Fortunately, Huo Ya still liked him, so Huo Xiuyuan didn’t have to spend much effort to get her to help him.
He comforted her for a while to prevent her from being distracted. In order to prevent Kelly from suddenly attacking and discovering him, Huo Xiuyuan carefully hung up the phone and cleaned up the call records.
Today, he had suffered a setback at Huo Yichen’s hands, but this didn’t mean that he had completely lost to the other party.
Thinking of his agreement with Xu Dong, Huo Xiuyuan quickly became confident again.
After noon, half of the hardest time of the day had pa.s.sed.
The scorching sky gradually retreated, and the few clouds in the sky appropriately covered the light from the sun, scattering a small patch of shade for the people.
“Okay, that’s it. You can rest now.”
With the director’s words, everyone finally had time to relax and enjoy their already late lunch.
After An Nuo completed her scenes for today, she first went to the dressing room to take off the costume she was wearing before getting into the huge van waiting for her outside.
Although the filming had ended, she still had an appointment to attend in the afternoon, so lunch could only be settled in the car.
However, even when she was eating, An Nuo still picked out the scenes from the script to read and prepare for the rest of the work.
However, as she read, her mind was not on the words, but on last night.
Last night, she was still eating barbecue at the Murong Residence when
Murong Chen sent her back to the guest room.
However, the confession she had previously prepared couldn’t be said when she was alone with Murong Chen several times.
An Nuo originally thought that she had courage, but when she looked at Murong Chen, the words that were about to come out of her mouth retreated shamelessly.
In the end, when she woke up the next day and asked Uncle Yang, she found out that Murong Chen had already gone to Shengjing. An Nuo couldn’t hide the disappointment in her heart.
“Sister An Nuo, your phone is ringing,” the a.s.sistant suddenly reminded her.
An Nuo was so busy thinking that she didn’t notice. After receiving the a.s.sistant’s hint, she hurriedly reached out to take it and realized that it was her mother, Jiang Xia.
“h.e.l.lo, Mom. Why did you suddenly call me?”
If she were talking to her family, An Nuo would immediately lose her maturity outside. In fact, her words even had a hint of coquettishness.
This appearance was rare. At least, the a.s.sistant had only seen Jiang Xia and Murong Qiao enjoy such treatment.
Jiang Xia enjoyed her daughter’s intimacy. “Can’t I call if there’s no reason?”
How’s work recently? You haven’t been home for a month. Your father and I miss you a lot.” Jiang Xia’s tone softened.
An Nuo replied casually, “It’s fine…”
At this moment, An Nuo had a deep understanding of the saying that only good news could be reported.
At the same time, when she heard Jiang Xia say that she had not returned home for a month, An Nuo couldn’t help but feel bitter.
She had been busy with work and acting recently, so she had neglected her family.
An Nuo immediately said, “I…”
She was about to say that she would find time to go back when she heard Jiang
Xia’s smiling voice on the other end of the phone.
“It’s fine even if you don’t have time to come back. Your father and I are going
out on our honeymoon.”
The emotions that had just arisen in An Nuo’s heart were forcefully blocked.
“I called you to tell you about this. Your father has a friend and son. He said
that he likes you a lot. Let’s have a meal when you’re free.”
Jiang Xia mentioned it casually.
An Nuo immediately frowned and was about to reject it, but Jiang Xia clearly understood her daughter, so she added.
“It doesn’t matter if you like him or not. Go through the process and take a look. It saves you from working all day long. Your father and I don’t want you to be so tired early.”
Although Jiang Xia and An Xinzhi might not understand the hardships of being
celebrities, they didn’t need a reason to feel sorry for their daughter.
It was not to the point of urging her to get married. Jiang Xia could be said to be free to manage her daughter. Only An Xinzhi was always worried, so she looked for her daughter to deal with it.
…Alright.” An Nuo clearly understood what her mother meant, so she agreed.
However, she didn’t tell her mother that she had someone she liked. Thinking that she had yet to confess, An Nuo pursed her lips and felt a little unhappy.
Jiang Xia knew that her daughter was busy, so she hung up after giving her a few instructions. At the same time, she pushed her a contact number. It was probably that friend’s son..
