On the other side, Huo Yi looked at Nangong Jue with extreme resentment. “Sir Jue, you’re full, so you don’t know how hungry men feel. You have a wife, but I don’t. You’re already arranging a job for me in the first month. Do I still have time to chase after my wife?”
“Do you know why you haven’t completely taken Fang Xiaotao down?” Nangong Jue looked at Huo Yi enigmatically. “Do you know why Lan was touched by me even after divorcing me?” “Why?” Huo Yi widened his eyes.
“Then do you know when men are the most charming?” Nangong Jue continued to bluff.
“When?” Huo Yi fell for it.
“At work.” Nangong Jue raised his eyebrows slightly.
“Huh?” Huo Yi frowned.
“Haven’t you read so many domineering president novels too? If you want the female lead to like you, apart from knowing how to differentiate between the green tea b*tches and white lotus, a qualified domineering president has to work hard. Men at work are the most charming.”
Huo Yi: ‘
Thinking back, there did seem to be such a description.
“Look at you. When you were with Fang Xiaotao, what did you do other than eat, drink, and have fun? Even if you’re rich, she’S not a gold digger. Her family background is not bad either. If you really do something like booking a shopping mall or a pond, I reckon she’ll look down on you. Don’t you think
Huo Yi rubbed his chin.
“You give her the feeling that you’re a playboy. It’S fine if she lets you interact with her, but if she really wants to get serious, why should she let go of so many motivated young men and insist on an old man like you?”
“Who•s an old man? You’re the old man.” Huo Yi exploded. “We’re born in the same year, okay? My birthday is a day later than yours.”
“Yes, I’m an old man, but my Lan doesn’t despise me. We’ve already registered our marriage. You don’t admit that you’re an old man, but Miss Xiaotao didn’t register her marriage with you. Then it’s not certain if she’ll be the daughter-in-law of the Huo family in the future ..”
“Nangong Jue, you…”
“Don’t be angry. I knew about your bottleneck, so didn’t I give you a chance?” Nangong Jue hurriedly calmed the man down. “I’ve handed the acquisition of the Nangong Corporation to you. Fang Xiaotao happens to be on holiday, so bring her along. Let her see your efforts, your methods, and your charm… Let me tell you, you might be able to register your marriage when you go back.”
“Really?” Huo Yi narrowed his eyes. He felt that he was fooling him.
“Do you dare to try?”
‘Well…”
“Forget it if you don’t dare.” Nangong Jue sighed. “I’ll call Fang Ming over immediately. Anyway, Fang Ming already has a partner now. It’s Zhou Yulan, Lan’s cousin. She’s a year younger than Xiaotao. It’s said that she’s already met his parents. She said that they’re going to arrange a marriage for them this year and hold a wedding as soon as Zhou Yulan graduates… I can get Fang Ming to bring Zhou Yulan along and tour the country…”
Huo Yi glared. Why were all of them moving so fast? “Alright, are you going to do it? If not…”
“F*ck!” Huo Yi rolled his eyes at Nangong Jue.
Nangong Jue patted Huo Yi’S shoulder. “Good luck. I have faith in you.” Then, he left Beijing with his wife.
When Huo Yi realized that he had been fooled, he could no longer find Nangong Jue. He was on vacation in Hainan with his wife. He was so angry that he could only… torture Nangong Rongyao..
