Everyone in the office block was afraid when they saw Huo Nanchen.
They thought that he would scold them for no particular reason, but in the end, Huo Nanchen nodded and walked right past them. Everyone could see the marks on his neck.
His neck was covered with several love bites
Had the red strawberry-like hickeys been planted by the Young Madam?
It appeared that President Huo had not noticed them, and Li Tezhu was yet to remind him.
Huo Nanchen ignored the employees' strange gazes and headed for the elevator.
Soon, the news spread throughout the company.
President Huo had arrived at work with love marks made by the Young Madam and had not been afraid of showing them off. All sorts of gossip began to spread, and the rumors that he did not love his wife were no longer credible.
Many of the female employees could not stand Huo Nanchen's affection towards Gu Ruochu.
The couple's display of intimacy was now very public.
Soon, Gu Ruochu arrived at the Huo Corporation around noon. When she saw Huo Nanchen, she finally understood why he had asked Li Tezhu to pick her up. Her husband had ordered some lunch for them to have in the office.
Li Tezhu went out, and the couple was left alone in the office. Huo Nanchen had ordered all her favorite dishes. Gu Ruochu's mood improved when she saw the food.
Her phone begun to ring while she was eating. Gu Ruochu put down her chopsticks and reached for her phone.
Huo Nanchen furrowed his brows as he watched her. Her half-eaten meat sauce was about to go cold. He reached out and scooped the meat sauce from her bowl and into her mouth. Gu Ruochu instinctively reached out to stop him but was forcefully repelled by the chopsticks. "Be good. Open your mouth."
Gu Ruochu continued to type on her phone while Huo Nanchen fed her.
She was chatting with someone on WeChat and after some time, she felt that she could not eat anymore.
"You're not going to give me your share, are you?" Gu Ruochu pushed his hand away. "I'm not eating anymore. I'm full."
Huo Nanchen took out a tissue and helped her wipe off the oil stains on her lips. He then carried her and set her on his lap. "Why are you unhappy again?
"I have a gift for you."
"What gift? What special day is it today?"
"It's not a special day." Huo Nanchen suddenly put his arm around Gu Ruochu's waist. "Zijun said that you're now the most beautiful woman in our family. You should receive flowers and gifts every day."
Huo Nanchen had carefully picked out the gifts and flowers the previous day. He wanted his wife to be in a good mood every day.
Even though Gu Ruochu was thick-skinned, she could not help but blush.
Huo Nanchen was so sweet to her.
Gu Ruochu hummed, "I've accepted the gifts. I still have some matters to attend to on set, so I'll have to head out."
"Let me finish my lunch first." Huo Nanchen had been too busy feeding her. Gu Ruochu looked at his gentle eyes. She never thought that he could be so sweet.
"Is it good for you to be so clingy?"
"So you want me to be clingy?" Huo Nanchen leaned closer to her.
Gu Ruochu sat down beside him and filled his bowl with rice. She then realized that there was a strawberry mark on his neck.
"You didn't just walk around the company like that today, did you?"
"Yes, I did."
Gu Ruochu could only imagine the thoughts of everyone in the company after they saw the strawberry mark. Her face was a little uncomfortable. She now understood why all the employees had gazed at her strangely a little while back.
"Huo Nanchen, you're shameless!"
Gu Ruochu's sudden scolding made him raise his eyebrows. "How am I shameless? Didn't you do it to me?"
Gu Ruochu was speechless.
She now understood why he had brought her over to his office for lunch.
After a long and difficult meal with Huo Nanchen, Gu Ruochu took her bag and left the office. An Duo had just entered the Huo Corporation building. Their eyes met, and the atmosphere grew tense.
