"Assistant Yan, is there anything else?" Qiao Qin frowned, her heart filled with confusion and anxiety.

She glanced at the lighted office and felt an urgent urge to meet Huo Yan immediately to explain any misunderstandings that might have arisen.

However, when she looked at Assistant Yan, she found that he seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he was hiding something.

Assistant Yan said hesitantly, "Boss Huo is busy right now. How about you go back first and I'll help you convey the message when Boss Huo is done?"

Qiao Qin's heart sank suddenly and she shook her head. "No, I have something very important to tell him. Assistant Yan, please let him know for me."

There was a hint of pleading in her voice, but more of it was unquestionable firmness.

Assistant Yan looked embarrassed, but he knew Qiao Qin's character and knew that once she made a decision, she would not change it easily. After hesitating for a while, he finally decided to help her make the announcement.

However, just as he turned around and was about to leave, a woman's scream suddenly came from the office.

This voice was like a sharp knife that pierced Qiao Qin's heart. Her face turned pale instantly, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in her heart.

"Step aside!"

Qiao Qin shouted at Assistant Yan, her voice full of anger and tension.

Assistant Yan was startled by her momentum and hurriedly explained: "Mrs. Qiao...Mrs. Huo, things are not what you think."

But Qiao Qin would no longer listen to any explanation. She pushed Assistant Yan aside and strode towards the closed office.

Her heart beat faster and every step felt like walking on a knife edge, painful and heavy. When she stood at the door of the office, she hesitated.

Qiao Qin's hand was suspended in the air, and she was reluctant to drop it. She was afraid that once she opened the door, she would see a scene that she could not accept. Thinking back to the sweet time she had spent with Huo Yan, her heart was filled with reluctance and pain.

Paused for a few seconds.

Qiao Qin made up her mind, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open with force.

Followed by.

Her gaze pierced through the darkness in the office and fell on a hot woman.

The other person was wearing a white shirt and a hip skirt, and black stockings outlined her seductive curves, but at this moment she was sitting on the ground, her clothes were disheveled, the buttons on her collar were slightly unbuttoned, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white skin, which was particularly dazzling.

Qiao Qin's sudden intrusion startled both people present.

Huo Yan stood up immediately, a look of surprise on his face, and walked towards her with big strides, saying in a deep voice:

"How did you come?"

Qiao Qin did not answer, her eyes wandering between Huo Yan and Zhong Jiaoyan.

"Can't I come?" There was a hint of questioning in her tone, but more of it was sadness that was hard to conceal.

Huo Yan held her slightly cold little hand and said calmly.

"Of course, this is my office, you can come anytime you want."

however.

Seeing this, Zhong Jiaoyan quickly stood up and tidied her messy clothes, while explaining in a soft voice: "Mrs. Huo, please don't misunderstand me. There is really nothing between Mr. Huo and me. I just fell down accidentally."

Although her words were sincere, they seemed even more obvious in this awkward situation.

Qiao Qin's eyes dimmed as she looked at the two people in front of her, feeling mixed emotions. Her hands hanging at her sides tightened unconsciously, and she felt nothing as her sharp nails dug into her palms.

Qiao Qin tried to stay calm, but the pain in her heart surged like a tide.

At this moment, the man next to him suddenly spoke.

Huo Yan looked at Zhong Jiaoyan coldly and said in a deep voice: "It really doesn't matter. You have been fired by Huo's company."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell into dead silence.

Zhong Jiaoyan was stunned for a moment, her face instantly turned as pale as paper. She couldn't believe her ears and asked in a trembling voice: "Why? Mr. Huo, are you kidding me?"

Zhong Jiaoyan instinctively stretched out her hand, wanting to lean on Huo Yan, seeking some comfort and explanation.

However, Huo Yan coldly avoided her and did not give her any chance to approach him. When she looked up, she met Huo Yan's bottomless black eyes. There was no emotion in those eyes, as if he was looking at a stranger.

Zhong Jiaoyan froze in place, and she finally realized that she had offended the wrong person.

She originally thought that with her proud figure and looks, she could easily attract Huo Yan's attention, but the man in front of her was completely unmoved, and even watched coldly when she fell.

Thinking back to her previous behavior, Zhong Jiaoyan couldn't help but feel a little scared.

She originally just wanted to use the rumors in the company to get close to Huo Yan, but unexpectedly, her actions angered Huo Yan, and he decided to fire her without hesitation.

Zhong Jiaoyan's heart was filled with regret and panic. She looked at Qiao Qin with a begging look in her eyes.

"Mrs. Huo, nothing really happened between Mr. Huo and me. I promise I won't appear in front of him again. Can you talk to Mr. Huo and ask him not to let me lose this job?"

However, Qiao Qin did not speak.

She looked at Huo Yan, who had a calm expression on his face, and then she realized that she had misunderstood.

As for Zhong Jiaoyan?

Everyone has to pay the price for what they have done, so she has no sympathy for the other party at all.

Zhong Jiaoyan seemed to want to argue something, but Assistant Yan appeared in time and forcibly took her out of the office.

As the footsteps faded away, silence returned to the office.

Huo Yan looked at Qiao Qin, who had a complicated expression, and took the initiative to speak: "I heard that you have something to ask me?"

Qiao Qin was startled by this sudden question. She was stunned for a few seconds before she came to her senses. Her heartbeat accelerated instantly, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

She was so nervous that she could hardly breathe. After a long while, she spoke with difficulty: "Do you know all the rumors about me in the company?"

Huo Yan nodded, his expression still calm as usual: "I know, what's wrong?"

His tone was so relaxed that it seemed as if he was just talking about a trivial matter.

Not only did he know about what happened between Qiao Qin and Huo Shiyan, he had also experienced it himself.

after all.

Huo Yan and Huo Shiyan are actually the same person.

Qiao Qin opened her eyes wide, not expecting him to face this question so calmly.

She had imagined various reactions of Huo Yan after hearing these rumors, but she never expected that he would be so calm.

This calmness made her feel a little at a loss, and she even began to doubt whether Huo Yan really cared about her.

An inexplicable emotion surged in her heart, feeling both fortunate and lost.

Fortunately, she didn't have to worry about losing her happy family of three because of those rumors. Unfortunately, she seemed to have never really entered Huo Yan's heart.

Qiao Qin took a deep breath and asked carefully.

"Then what do you think?"
