Chapter 34: More Lucid

n't you""If you weren't surnamed Shen, I wouldn't even spare you a glance!"Each sentence, more venomous than the last, poured out of Huo Chenyi's mouth like a sharp arrow piercing Shen Niannian.Shen N...Looking at Huo Yirou, who was indignant for Huo Chenxi, Su He did not speak.

Someone like Huo Chenxi Where does she get off feeling indignant on his behalf

What's more, she already knew that He Suwen was not Huo Chenxi's biological mother.

Back then, Huo Shenxi's father, Huo Yao, fell in love with a woman of unknown background while carrying on an affair with He Suwen. Later, the two died in an accident. When Grandma Huo decided to bring Huo Shenxi back, everyone thought He Suwen would object, but she was the first to stand up and support her.

It was precisely because of He Suwen's decision that Huo Chenxi was able to return to the Huo family with legitimacy and inherit everything Huo Yaolu left him.

Having watched Huo Chenxi grow up with her own eyes, He Suwen gradually came to treat Huo Chenxi as her own son. She wholeheartedly wanted to see Huo Chenxi inherit the Huo family and become the true head of the family.

Grandma Huo chose Su He, a woman with no background, as the wife for Huo Chen Xi. He Su Wen strongly opposed this decision and, in the end, was unable to change Grandma Huo's mind. All her resentment was directed at Su He.

During the three years that Su He was married to Huo Chen Xi, He Suwen often made trouble for her and constantly found ways to make things difficult.

Su He couldn't bear to see Huo Chen Xi being embarrassed, so she silently endured it every time.

Sometimes He Suwen deliberately accused her of being disobedient and unfilial, Huo Shenxi mostly turned a blind eye and would never listen to Su He's explanation. Every time, he indulged He Suwen.

Now, even Lian Huo Chen Xi dared to scold He Suwen when she was angry. This isn't because he's used to it.

To put it simply, He Suwen is still a coward. She knows Huo Shenxi won't really do anything to her.

"Sister-in-law, if possible, could you give my brother another chance" Huo Yirou saw Su He's expression flicker and couldn't help but comfort her, "My brother is just that kind of person. No matter what happens, he disdainfully refuses to explain. Some things, maybe it wasn't him who did them."

She didn't dare to speak too directly.

Shen Zhaolin and Gu Qingcheng listened to her opinion and made many arrangements for Su He, keeping her so busy that she had no energy to dwell in sadness.

This method did work, Su He recovered a lot. Huo Yi Rou didn't want to stimulate Su He again at this time.

This admonishing and warning tone gave Su He a sense of unease: "Why are you suddenly saying these things"

Huo Yirou suddenly laughed: "You wouldn't think I would be heartbroken, would you Just a man, what's the big deal!"

Su He stared at her silently until he saw Huo Yi Rou laughing until tears streamed down her face. Only then did he let out a soft sigh and reach out to pull her into his embrace.

"You're right. There are no insurmountable obstacles, and there are no people you can't let go of." Su He recalled the days and nights when Huo Chen Xi was away, leaving her in agony. She took a deep breath, "Everything will be alright!"

Huo Yirou nodded gently and whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. I know I shouldn't have persuaded you, but my older brother is really lonely alone."

Su He pursed her lips and shook her head slightly.

She once felt sorry for Huo Chenxi, but what she got in return was the agonizing price of losing her child.

That night, Huo Yirou left A City without saying goodbye to anyone, just like when she first came back.

When Su He received the news of her departure, she wasn't surprised. Sometimes, escaping was a way to heal. Time could dilute everything, including the pain that love brought.

Before leaving, Huo Yirou's words did not sway Su He away from Huo Chenxi. Instead, they made her even more clear-headed.

No matter what purpose Huo Shenxi had, the harm he inflicted upon her was real.

Not all injuries make people stronger, sometimes they just make them more afraid of pain.

When the news reached them that Emperor's Group CEO Huo Chenxi was coming in person to discuss the project, the secretaries at Yi He Group's president's office started looking at Su He differently.

Especially Zhou Shishu, her eyes seemed to want to eat Su He alive.

She talked about a project that had been going on for so long without any progress. Su He, in just a few days, was able to get Huo Chen Xi involved.

"Secretary Su is indeed skilled at charming men. She managed to win over Long Mao earlier, and now she's got Shao Huo in her grasp." Secretary Zhou sneered with a sarcastic tone.

Su He was busy preparing meeting materials and had no time to pay attention to Zhou's secretary's sarcasm.

She was just casually saying it yesterday, who would have thought Huo Chenxi would actually come over.

It seems he's really going all out for Bai Yihuan.

Zhou's secretary didn't even glance at Su He, infuriating her even more. Thinking back to Shen Zhao Lin saying that if Su He completed this project, she would be promoted to assistant, jealousy and resentment surged in her heart.

She did so much and still didn't get promoted, how come Su He got favored by Shen Zao Lin after only being here for less than two months

Seeing Su He printing materials, Zhou the secretary's eyes lit up, and she instantly had an idea.

Su He had just finished printing a critical document and was about to make copies when he discovered that all the copiers were out of order. There wasn't a single free one available.

"Sorry, I need this document urgently."

"I'm very worried about this too!"

……

Looking at her colleagues' apologetic and helpless eyes, what else could Su He not understand

Su He walked straight to Zhou's secretary, who was leisurely drinking tea, and directly slammed the printed material onto her desk.

"Zhou, since you're so free, please print thirty copies of this material for me. I need them in ten minutes." Su He stared at her, raising his chin in command.

"What do you think you are, ordering me around" Zhou's secretary was furious, her face turning red. "You're just an assistant and you're already so arrogant. If you actually become a special assistant, wouldn't you be flying to the heavens"

“I got here on my own merit, what do you have to say about that” Su He snorted coldly, staring straight at her. “I want the meeting materials in ten minutes. Also, if anything goes wrong at today’s meeting, I’ll hold you responsible. I don’t mind reporting any shady dealings I find in this project to the chairman.”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Secretary Zhou was startled and scolded sharply.

"Do I sound like I'm making things up Secretary Zhou knows better than anyone. I dare to go before the chairman, but I wonder if Secretary Zhou has the guts to confront him" Su He retorted confidently.

Zhou's secretary met Su He's gaze, her eyes full of warning. Zhou's secretary felt a shiver run down her spine.

Su He directly turned and walked into the conference room.

Ten minutes later, Zhou's secretary sent someone to deliver the meeting materials into the conference room.

Shen Zhaolin, who observes everything, nodded with satisfaction, his eyes full of admiration for Su He.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Huo Chenxi, dressed in a black suit, arrived with his assistant Xu Tian as scheduled. He was led to the conference room by the reception staff and saw Su He, giving him a slight start.

Su He wore a white shirt and tailored pants today, with matching high heels. Her hair was tied up at the back of her head. She still had that face that could be covered by the palm of your hand, but her whole person seemed to have a more capable aura, making people's eyes light up involuntarily.

Xu Tian never expected that Su He, who used to be so gentle and submissive, would change into a completely different person in just a few months.

But when did she become a member of the Yi He Group

Xu Tian was at a loss, Su He had already politely risen to greet him.

Huo Chenxi led Xu Tian to take a seat.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Su He got straight to the point, opening up the projector and starting her report.

As her report went deeper, Huo Chenxi's face slowly became serious. Her posture became straighter, and her gaze towards Su He was deep and dark like a black hole, swallowing everything around it.d keep secrets!" The man narrowed his eyes, gazing dangerously at Su He, taking a step closer to her.As soon as she sensed the man's presence looming behind her, Su He finally turned around. She saw...
