Shock! I fell for the paranoid Mr. Huo after he misread my thoughts

Imperial City

Although Huo Chenchao was still at the signing ceremony, his heart had already flown to City D.

He didn't know how many times he had raised the watch in his hand. This afternoon, he didn't know why, but he just felt inexplicably flustered. The image of Jiang Muwan disappearing from his sight this morning kept appearing in his mind.

He pinched his swollen brows to relieve the boredom in his heart for a while, then picked up the car keys, gave a few instructions to the company executives who were accompanying him, and left the scene.

Calculating the time, it would take more than an hour for Jiang Muwan to finish filming, but he couldn't wait any longer. He had to see her in person to feel at ease.

Seeing that something was wrong with his condition today, Assistant Lin followed him very sharply.

"Boss Huo, there's only finishing work left here. Let me drive you to pick up your wife."

Huo Chenchao originally wanted to refuse, but the panic in his heart became more and more intense at this moment, and even his hands trembled unconsciously.

After thinking about it, he nodded. He couldn't joke about traffic safety.

After getting his consent, Assistant Lin hurriedly took the car keys from his hand, skillfully opened the car door for him, and then turned around and sat in the driver's seat.

The Rolls-Royce luxury car was driving smoothly on the road, and Huo Chenchao, who was sitting in the back seat, kept looking at the mobile phone in his hand.

After hesitating for a while, he directly dialed the number that he knew by heart. At this moment, he didn't care whether she was working or not. He just wanted to hear her voice and talk to her.

In the silent carriage, the melodious ringing sounded for a long time, but in the end, Huo Chenchao did not wait for the familiar voice, and all that was left was the cold reminder tone "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently unanswered, please call again later."

Huo Chenchao's eyes were a little cold, but he still forced himself to calm down, and kept telling himself that at this point in time, she should still be shooting a commercial and should not have time to look at her phone.

After five minutes of agony, Huo Chenchao called Jiang Muwan again. This time, a cold reminder tone sounded quickly, saying "Sorry, the number you dialed is powered off."

The phone was turned off. Jiang Muwan never had the habit of turning off her phone. Even when she was at work, she would just mute it for fear that he couldn't find her. And... and he personally helped her charge her phone last night!

Thinking of this, Huo Chenchao's pupils suddenly shrank and his heart sank completely.

Not giving up, I dialed the familiar number again, but the cold shutdown tone was still heard.

Once, twice, three times... When he heard the same prompt tone for the fifth time, the phone in Huo Chenchao's hand suddenly slipped to the ground with a muffled "bang" sound.

"Speed ​​up the car!" For the first time in his life, Huo Chenchao's voice trembled as he spoke. "Speed ​​up, and transfer the call to the DH executives now, quickly!"

"Okay, Mr. Huo, don't worry, I'll transfer you right away."

At this moment, Assistant Lin's heart was in his throat, but apart from obeying Huo Chenchao's orders, he dared not say anything more. After all, he knew better than anyone what Jiang Muwan meant to Huo Chenchao.

He stopped the car on the side of the road, dialed the phone number of DH's senior management and handed it to Huo Chenchao, then Assistant Lin stepped on the accelerator and drove at the fastest speed.

After the ringing sounded several times, the call from the DH executives was finally connected. "Hello! Mr. Huo, why are you calling at this time? I have something urgent to deal with right now. How about I call you back later?"

Even through the phone, it was not difficult to hear the forced calm tone of the DH executives when they spoke.

Huo Chenchao's heart had completely sunk to the bottom of the valley at this moment. His throat became sore and he paused for a moment before he spoke again, "You'd better not tell me that there was a problem with the filming of your DH commercial today?"

He spoke the following few words almost one by one.

"Mr. Huo," the DH executive's tone was obviously more flustered. "Mr. Huo, I don't know where you got the news from. Yes, there was a small problem with today's advertising shoot. Our people have already rushed over to solve it. It won't cause any impact, don't worry."

Small problem, don't worry!

DH is such a big company, but there was a problem with the advertising shooting. The major news and major media platforms did not mention it at all. How can this be a small problem? I am afraid... I am afraid...

Huo Chenchao didn't dare to think any further. He clenched the phone in his hand. His cold eyes were now filled with scarlet. "I want to hear the truth, otherwise you will bear the consequences today!"

His voice was close to a roar, which shocked the DH executives on the other end. He didn't understand. It was just a problem with the shooting of their company's advertisement, why did Huo Chenchao get so angry?

However, knowing Huo Chenchao's character of keeping his word, the senior management still told the truth, "Hey! President Huo, calm down. During the filming today, the plane crashed into the castle. The female star we invited and more than a dozen staff members were buried in the ruins of the collapsed castle!"

"Snapped"

The sound of something breaking rang out again in the back seat, but this time, unlike the last time, Assistant Lin thought he seemed to hear the sound of a breaking heart.

Without looking back, he knew how desperate and... at a loss Huo Chenchao must be at this moment.

He had been with him for nearly ten years, and this was the first time in his life that he felt the breath of sadness from Huo Chenchao. It was also the first time that Huo Chenchao couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

The entire castle collapsed. Without asking any questions, any normal person would know what the people buried inside were facing.

Madam! Such a cheerful and kind-hearted young lady, a happy-go-lucky girl!

She was only twenty years old, and she had only been officially with the president for less than three months!

Assistant Lin's eyes also started to moisten. He didn't dare to look back at Huo Chenchao, and he didn't know what else to say. All he could do was speed up the car again and again...

It was unknown how fast the car went, nor how much time had passed. Assistant Lin only knew that when he arrived at the destination, his hands and feet were numb.

Along the way, he didn't hear any sound from Huo Chenchao. He felt upset. He wanted to turn around and open the car door for Huo Chenchao, but found that he had gotten out of the car by himself at some point.

"Huo, Mr. Huo," he called out hoarsely, and it was at this moment that he realized that Huo Chenchao's face was as pale as paper, and even his cold eyes, which were usually full of unruly and powerful, were now full of loneliness and fragility.

He seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. Without giving any response, Huo Chenchao stared at the ruins surrounded by the crowd in front of him with his scarlet eyes.

He raised his foot and strode towards that direction. There were tears in his eyes, but he forced them back...
