Chapter 336: Isn’t That Going Overboard?
Huo Jinyao could read her thoughts as he looked at her facial expression. He leaned in and kissed the corner of her lips. “Dear, you just need to care about doing what you like. Leave the other things to me.”
In his presence, nobody in Lin City would dare to mess with Su Qingsang. If there was really any serious trouble, he was not afraid of it either.
To Su Qingsang’s and Huo Jinyao’s surprise, Xiang Caiping did not object to the idea of traveling abroad. Moreover, she was in possession of a passport.
“Then we’ll settle on this. We’ll go to Japan.” At the thought of having fun abroad, Su Qingsang was extremely pleased about it too.
“I’m almost done with my tasks at work. Recently, a few more interns have arrived at the hospital, so taking a few days’ leave is acceptable. Why not let us just pack some of our things and we’ll leave the day after tomorrow?”
“Will we be able to make it in time?” Xiang Caiping glanced at Huo Jinyao. “Jinyao’s company must have a lot of matters to deal with, does it not?”
“You two go ahead.” Huo Jinyao looked at Su Qingsang and winked deliberately at her. “I have some matters to take care of at the company. The two of you should head to Japan first. I’ll join you in two days.”
“Sure.”
It seemed that Su Qingsang grasped his intention immediately. Xiang Caiping had not been with her all these years, and it made perfect sense that she would hope to spend more time with her.
Even though Xiang Caiping asked Huo Jinyao if he would be busy, she was instead beaming from ear to ear because of what he had said.
To be able to spend time alone with Su Qingsang to foster their relationship was the best thing that could happen to her.
...
After entering the company, Huo Jinyao called for Yang Wenchang. “Make arrangements to purchase two air tickets for a flight to Japan the day after tomorrow. Then arrange for the personnel there to receive my guests.”
After he gave Yang Wenchang his tasks and settled some work-related matters, his secretary informed him that he had a visitor.
Huo Jinyao listened to his secretary’s report and shook his head straight away. “I’m not receiving any visitors.”
“President Huo,” Qiu Junqiao barged in directly after hearing that Huo Jinyao rejected her request for a meeting. She rushed into Huo Jinyao’s office.
“President Huo, our families have partnerships after all. The way you keep people at bay doesn’t seem too appropriate, does it?”
Due to Qiu Junqiao’s sudden intrusion into his office, Huo Jinyao frowned. He gave Yang Wenchang a wave of his hand as a gesture for him to leave the room. He stepped back.
“Miss Qiu, your family’s company, and not you, has a partnership with mine. I don’t have any official business to discuss with you, so it does not matter if my actions are appropriate or not.”
Qiu Junqiao was antagonized. “What kind of attitude is this, President Huo? Are you throwing your weight around?”
Huo Jinyao rubbed his jaw with one hand and seemed to ponder that for a moment, then nodded vigorously. “Yes, I am throwing my weight around. Do you have a problem with that?”
Qiu Junqiao’s face flushed with fury. “Isn’t President Huo lacking grace by bullying a woman in this way?”
“I also have to see who I’m extending my grace to. With regards to people who have no sense of shame, there is no need for me to be too polite.”
“President Huo, don’t you forget that our families have an ongoing partnership.” Did he not consider her feelings when he embarrassed her this way?
“Yes, I also want to remind Miss Qiu, don’t forget that our families have an ongoing partnership,” Huo Jinyao said in a warning tone. The edges of his lips were upturned in a mocking smile.
The Qiu family was not the only family in Lin City that could carry out this partnership.
“If Miss Qiu continues to insist, I can only use another way to remind her of her position. Be aware of your status and be conscious of the way you carry yourself.”
Qiu Junqiao was fuming and at a loss for words. She nodded with force.
“Alright, alright. President Huo is really not a reasonable person. No wonder that for some shameful reason, you ended up marrying an illegitimate daughter who is not good enough for her family.”
Huo Jinyao’s demeanor changed slightly. “Do you know what you’re saying?”
