Huo Sicheng didn't even look at Chu Yu. A deep look flashed across his slanted eyes as he gently put down the document in his hand.
"Chu Yu…"
"Yes."
"Mrs. Huo." Huo Sicheng's cold eyes fell on Chu Yu. "Don't call her by the wrong name."
"Understood. I'll remember that," Chu Yu replied respectfully.
"Qingcheng isn't as bad as you think." Huo Sicheng thought of Gu Qingcheng, and a gentle look flashed across his eyes. "It's not that I don't want to. I'm willing to marry her. "This is my choice and her decision. Don't ask again."
"Got it," Chu Yu replied.
But he didn't think that President Huo would willingly marry Gu Qingcheng. If he had, he would have been happy today instead of being so helpless the whole morning.
Huo Sicheng took in Chu Yu's expression, and he calmed himself down. He asked coldly, "How's the situation with Y Country's KC Oil Group?"
"Our negotiation with KC Group didn't go well because Qin Group and Gu Group suddenly competed for this cooperation," Chu Yu quickly answered and placed the document in front of Huo Sicheng.
Huo Sicheng opened the black folder with his slender fingers. His slanted eyes were cold and intimidating.
Chu Yu, who was a table away, could feel the cold aura from President Huo. This coldness was filled with a sharp sense of oppression. In an instant, he felt the fear of a disaster, and he was about to suffocate.
The atmosphere dropped to a freezing point. It had been a long time since he had seen President Huo so angry. He had once seen a company that made President Huo angry disappear from Jiang City.
But this time, President Huo would also be in trouble. After all, the chairman of the Qin Corporation was President Huo's cousin, and President Huo was married to Gu Qingcheng, which meant the chairman of Gu Corporation was President Huo's father-in-law.
In the past, the Qin and Gu families had often cooperated with Huo Corporation. Now that Gu Qingcheng had suddenly stepped in, the Qin and Gu families had clearly fallen out with President Huo.
At the end of the day, Mr. Huo shouldn't have married Gu Qingcheng so Mr. Huo wouldn't be so inconvenienced.
Huo Sicheng stared at the document with a cold gaze. He didn't even try to hide the coldness in his eyes. His handsome features were as cold as ice.
The entire office was filled with the chill of winter. It was as if countless sharp icicles were covering the ground, tearing people apart at any moment.
Chu Yu's face was pale, and his back was soaked in cold sweat. He used a little strength to hold the document in his hand before he barely stabilized his weak legs.
At this moment, Huo Sicheng was exuding a ruthless and decisive aura. His dark and deep phoenix eyes were like a demon that was about to be hunted, making people fear him.
Suddenly, a sudden knock on the door broke the silence in the room.
Chu Yu, who was already on tenterhooks and did not even dare to breathe, was so scared that he almost jumped up because President Huo hated to be disturbed by mishaps at work.
Moreover, everyone in Huo Corporation knew that other than Mr. Huo, only his assistant could enter the CEO's office.
He thought that there must be something urgent that needed to be resolved with his assistant, but he had been kept here the entire morning because President Huo was not in a good mood.
However, no matter how urgent the matter was, he should not knock on the CEO's office door rashly.
Now, he began to sympathize with the unlucky person who knocked on the door when President Huo was angry. It would definitely not end well.
"Hi." Gu Qingcheng's crisp voice rang out. "Am I bothering you?"
When Chu Yu heard Gu Qingcheng's voice, he was stunned. He subconsciously took out his phone from his pocket, wanting to call security.
He still remembered the first time Gu Qingcheng came to Mr. Huo's office, she had destroyed it.
At that time, he was still reporting to Mr. Huo about his work, and Gu Qingcheng was scolding him as she smashed the office. He watched coldly as Mr. Huo didn't get angry at all, and instead watched her leave haughtily after smashing the office.
At that time, he couldn't figure out why President Huo didn't get angry. Later, when he thought about it, he realized that when President Huo smashed Gu Qingcheng's office, he clearly saw the look of helplessness in his eyes.
This also explained why the decisive Mr. Huo was so tolerant of her.
However, he didn't want to experience Gu Qingcheng's destruction of his office a second time. The last time she had destroyed his office, he had destroyed many documents, and he was exhausted from dealing with them.
However, what shocked him even more was that the murderous aura around Huo Sicheng had disappeared as soon as Gu Qingcheng arrived.
He looked at Huo Sicheng. Although he looked cold, he could still see the surprise and joy in his eyes, as if he was surprised by Gu Qingcheng's arrival.
It seemed that he didn't need to call security. Even if Gu Qingcheng smashed the office into pieces again, President Huo would be happy to see her do it. She was happy anyway, and President Huo would spoil her.
Besides, he didn't look like Gu Qingcheng was going to smash the office, because he saw that she was holding a lunchbox in her hand.
A pampered young lady like Gu Qingcheng definitely didn't know how to cook. She must have bought some low-nutrition takeout food. He didn't know what she was up to, but she was definitely up to no good.
Gu Qingcheng stood in the familiar, empty office. She looked around and was momentarily dazed.
Huo Sicheng's office was on the top floor of the company's building. He could see half of Jiang City at a glance. The top floor was black and white, and there was not even the shadow of flowers. It was monotonous and lonely.
The first time she came here, Qin Jun had instigated her to destroy this office. Now that she thought about it, she felt extremely regretful.
At that time, she had no time to observe Huo Sicheng's office. Today, she walked step by step and finally saw the place clearly.
The emptiness was her first impression. She was not surprised that the space on the top floor was wasted. Instead, she felt sorry for it.
Because it looked very much like Huo Sicheng. He looked high and mighty, but was lonely to the core.
If the top floor was black and white, then Huo Sicheng's office was a vast expanse of snow.
She suddenly remembered the first time she met Huo Sicheng when she was young. He was sitting in a wheelchair and being pointed at by his classmates. She was the only one who stared at his slanted eyes.
At that time, his eyes were deep and fierce, but they were like boundless snow, appearing so desolate and lonely.
She had felt pity for him and was surprised that he was still a child. Why did he have a mature gaze that was different from his age?
Later on, she found out about his tragic past from Qin Jun. Because of Qin Jun, she no longer felt pity for him. Only hatred remained.
If only Qin Jun hadn't instigated her, she would have stayed by his side and never left him alone. He wouldn't have to endure her humiliation.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world, but she could start over.
She tightened her grip on the lunchbox, her eyes filled with determination. She had to walk into his life so that he would no longer be alone. She had to let him know that he still had her by his side and that she would never leave him.
"It's noon. I thought you probably haven't had lunch yet, so I brought lunch with me." She composed herself and looked at Huo Sicheng, who was staring at her coldly. She smiled and asked, "You won't chase me away, will you?"
