"Fine . " Huo Mian nodded, and then she followed Huo Yanyan into a small lounge beside the conference room .
Huo Yanyan looked tired and no longer had that arrogant expression on her face .
"Huo Mian… I have a favor to ask of you . "
"What is it?" Huo Mian nodded; she knew that Huo Yanyan was no longer a threat to her .
"Can you introduce me to Shen Mingxi?"
"Shen Mingxi? Who's that?" It wasn't that Huo Mian wasn't up to date with her news, Shen Mingxi was simple too low-profile of a person .
"He's one of the four princes and is the young heir of Northern Auto… He came back to the country recently . Oh, right, he went to Young Master Su's birthday party…"
"But I don't know him . "
"I know you don't . Shen Mingxi is a low-profile man and rarely interacts with people in our circle, so I can't get in touch with him… but I heard that he's close friends with Young Master Su… I think… since you guys are so close, if he helps me, then I would be able to get to know him . As for the rest, I'll have to rely on myself for that . All you have to do is introduce me to him . "
Huo Mian was just about to speak when Huo Yanyan added, "I won't ask you to help me for free . I can transfer a part of my stock rights to you . After all, you're the second-biggest stockholder after Dad and have the ability to fight against Huo Siqian . "
"Haha… the problem is, I have no interest in your stock rights, nor fighting against Huo Siqian . "
"Don't lie to me… my mom said that you'll never be on Huo Siqian's side . "
"Your mother sure knows me well . " Huo Mian was surprised at how thoroughly Shen Jiani saw things .
"She didn't tell me why, but I believe her . What do you think? Do you want to cut this deal? My stock rights for your introduction," Huo Yanyan begged .
She didn't care about what the news said, but she knew that Huo Mian and Su Yu had a special relationship .
As long as Huo Mian asked, Su Yu would help her for sure…
It only mattered if she was willing to ask or not…
"I'm sorry, but I can't help you . " Huo Mian smiled as she refused her .
First, she wasn't interested in Huo Yanyan's remaining stock rights…
Soon, Huo Siqian would take those stocks and put them in his own pocket .
Second, she decided that she will no longer get involved with Su Yu because of mundane things .
She finally made up with Mr . Qin, and she didn't want to do anything that frustrated him .
Therefore, she decided to refuse Huo Yanyan's request . The latter felt down in the dumps as she watched Huo Mian walk away .
She never thought that one day, the ground beneath her would crumble .
She also never thought that she would one day be envious of Huo Mian…
She used to mock Huo Mian, calling her poor, saying that she was a bastard child, and judging her for not having a father .
However, she had a father as well as money, but she lived like a dog, if not worse than one .
Huo Mian, on the other hand, not only married Qin Chu but was also loved by a man like Su Yu .
Any other woman would be jealous to death, right?
After Huo Mian finished her conversation with Huo Yanyan, she was about to head downstairs when Huo Siqian's assistant stopped her .
"Miss Huo, the president is waiting for you . "
"What for?"
"I'm not sure either, you'll find out when you go in . " The female assistant smiled .
Every time Huo Mian went to the Huo Corporation, Huo Siqian would always ask her to go to his office .
She was too lazy to knock, so she pushed open his office door and walked straight in .
Huo Siqian was sighing documents for the finance department…
"That's it for now, you can leave . "
"Okay, President Huo . "
"Come sit . " Huo Siqian waved his hand and smiled at Huo Mian .
"Just tell me what you want, I'm headed to GK right now . "
Huo Siqian looked at Huo Mian and then said profoundly, "I think wearing a low-cut sweater today was a big mistake . "
"Ha… since when did you develop the habit of commenting on my outfit?" Huo Mian was amused .
"Don't tell me you don't know what's on your neck . "
Huo Mian froze for a second upon hearing what Huo Siqian said .
She was in such a hurry to make breakfast this morning that she didn't look at herself too closely in the mirror .
Therefore, she immediately ran up to a mirror and took a look .
Then, her face immediately turned bright red…
There was a hickey on her neck…
Damn it, how humiliating… Mr . Qin is such a jerk, why didn't he tell her this morning?
She even pranced around the maids and Uncle Li… she flaunted their love without knowing it .
"So, how domineering is… that brother-in-law of mine? Did he tag you because he's afraid that someone will try to steal you away?" Huo Siqian placed a finger on his temple and looked at her with a spurious smile on his face .
