Yi Zheng was stunned and sniffed around guiltily. Indeed, he had the scent of Chen Jiao on him.
Chen Jiao looked at him apologetically and timidly moved behind Tang Zhe to hide. “I’m sorry, President Yi. I didn’t do it on purpose just now.”
Actually, she did do it on purpose!
When she heard the door slam just now, she was lying on Yi Zheng, looking completely frightened. Then, before Yi Zheng reached out to push her in exasperation, she hurriedly retreated to the side as if she wanted to avoid arousing suspicion.
As a woman, she naturally knew how to make a woman jealous.
Now that Yi Zheng was covered in her perfume, it would be strange if Shi Man would be nice to him!
Wasn’t that what men were like?
He could coax a woman once or twice, but he would never have the patience to continue coaxing her. As long as Shi Man kept fighting with Yi Zheng, she would have an opportunity!
When Tang Zhe heard Chen Jiao’s muffled voice, he wanted to rub her head, but this was in front of President Yi. He could only resist this urge and say in a businesslike tone, “Go and make an appointment for President Yi’s physical examination in the hospital. Also, make an appointment for yourself.”
“Yes.” Chen Jiao agreed obediently and left the room.
After she left, Tang Zhe frowned and reported, “President Yi, I’m afraid the attendant who brought you to the room was deliberately arranged by someone else. We can’t find out where he went.”
This was expected. There was nothing strange about it. Yi Zheng adjusted his clothes and his expression returned to normal. “Let’s go see Old Master Huo first.”
In the hotel suite, a recliner swayed slightly. The old man on it, who had his eyes closed, let out a comfortable moan. The man who had been standing beside him for a long time immediately lowered his head. “Old Huo, you’re awake.”
“Yes.” Old Master Huo moved his body slightly. Beside him, the man immediately understood and helped him sit on the soft sofa on the other side. He poured him a cup of hot tea. “What else do you need? I’ll get someone to get it done immediately.”
Old Master Huo raised his eyes slightly and swept his gaze across the faces of the people standing in the room. The air in the entire room was instantly oppressive to the point of suffocation. “Where’s that kid from the Yi family?”
The man hurriedly replied, “Master, Yi Zheng isn’t here. His subordinates were searching the rooms just now. Something big seems to have happened.”
Old Master Huo nodded and took a sip of tea. “Sit down.”
Only then did the others rush to sit beside Old Master Huo.
They were all elites who had just come to the business meeting, but they could only be respectful when it came to the Huo family.
In the capital, no one dared to take a step east when the Huo family said to go west. They could only flatter the family. In front of Old Master Huo, no matter how old they were, they were as obedient as mice seeing a cat.
Sui Ze was closest to him, and his smile became wrinkles on his face. “Old Master Huo, I got my subordinates to buy a lot of rare supplements for you while you were asleep. You’re our backbone. You have to take care of yourself.”
With that, Sui Ze’s secretary handed it over.
Old Master Huo had seen all kinds of good things in his life. He only glanced at them coldly before getting someone to put them aside.
Sui Ze smiled awkwardly. “It seems that my things haven’t been delivered to Old Master Huo’s heart. I know that Old Master Huo likes calligraphy, paintings, and antiques. I heard that a rare ancient painting will be auctioned at the auction next week. When the time comes, 1 will definitely bring it to Old Master Huo to appraise it personally.”
“Yes, that’s thoughtful.” Old Master Huo finally reacted.
Sui Ze was delighted and quickly struck while the iron was hot. “Then about the ownership of the mine rights in the west of teh city that we haven’t finished discussing at the meeting just now…”
“President Sui, Old Master Huo has just woken up. Aren’t you deliberately affecting Old Master Huo’s rest?” On the other side, Gu Ting, who had always had a bad relationship with the Sui family, stopped Sui Ze’s words with a cold expression. Then, he turned to Old Master Huo and put on a smile. “Old Master Huo, rest well first. We’ll talk about the rest when you recover.”
Old Master Huo nodded in satisfaction.
The Gu family was indeed a business family. Be it their outlook or their way of dealing with people, they were far above the Sui family.
He had originally wanted to hand over a portion of the mining rights in the west of the city to the Gu family.
Everyone in the room echoed Gu Ting’s words. Sui Ze was so angry that his face turned red, but he did not dare to act rashly.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
The person beside Old Master Huo immediately went to open the door.
A man in a suit with a cold aura was standing at the door expressionlessly. There was not much of a flattering smile on his face, and he had a dignified aura.
Old Master Huo looked at the young man at the door and took the initiative to ask, “What happened that took you so long?”
Old Master Huo’s tone was dignified, but there was no lack of intimacy.
Sui Ze immediately became vigilant.
Yi Zheng slowly stepped into the room and naturally walked to the sofa closest to Old Master Huo and sat down. “It was just a small incident. How’s Old Master Huo’s health?”
Old Master Huo was amused by him. He patted his shoulder and said, “It’s good that you’re done. Xiao Sui happened to be talking about the mining rights in the west of the city just now. You came at the right time..”
