The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

With her skillful technique, she combed Shi Rong's originally messy and dry hair into neat shape in just a few strokes, and used a small black hairpin and a disposable hairband to tie it into a simple bun shape.

"Well, actually, you're still very beautiful after dressing up, so Shi Rong, don't lose confidence in yourself. No matter what happens in the future, come with me."

Ai Rou helped her tidy up the loose hair on her temples, and patted her thin shoulders caringly, giving her corresponding support and encouragement.

Shi Rong opened her eyes and looked around. She was not surprised by the drastic change in herself. She just hoped to live a few more days.

When they arrived at the door of box 688, Ai Rou took up her cold and trembling little hand.

"Don't be afraid, Mr. Huo won't make things too difficult for you."

After hearing this, Shi Rong's eyelids twitched and he had a bad premonition. So, Huo Jiuzhou and others were also in there?

He laughed bitterly in silence, and the decision he had made in his mind to deal with the situation before could no longer be used without scruples in front of him.

Putting her thoughts aside, she bowed to Ai Rou to express her gratitude, then dragged her broken and hunched body and followed her in, step by step.

What is coming will come, and you can’t avoid it.

"Boss Huo, someone is here."

Ai Rou pushed the door open and placed Shi Rong in front of the crystal glass coffee table.

The box was filled with a dead silence and dull atmosphere at the moment. Perhaps it was because Huo Jiuzhou hated noisy environments. The loudspeakers and low-pitched speakers in the room created a depressing silence.

When the man's brown eyes, with inquiry, fell on Shi Rong who was not far in front of him, his handsome face was stained with an unusual moment of confusion and infatuation.

It’s fine without makeup, but with makeup, she is otherworldly and pleasing to the eye.

She is about 50% similar to her from more than three years ago. These 50% are enough to show the beauty of her facial features in the past, like a lotus emerging from the water, with natural and stunning light and shadow.

"Yes, pour the wine."

Huo Jiuzhou rarely praises a woman.

This one sentence attracted the attention of other people in the box. They all turned their heads and looked at Shi Rong, who was lowering his brows and looking pleasing.

As for her appearance, she is indeed a beautiful lady with fair skin, but in their opinion, she is still not as good as those gorgeous princesses and beauties here.

People have different perspectives. Maybe Mr. Huo likes this type of woman with light makeup and plain clothes. She can never be compared with his beloved wife who is hidden in a golden house.

Shi Rong reached out and picked up the opened bottle of collectible edition expensive foreign liquor. He filled a third of a cup for Huo Jiuzhou, who was sitting in the middle of the leather sofa, according to the order of the nine distinguished guests from oldest to youngest.

Then serve the other guests in order from oldest to youngest.

Shi Rong was well aware of the rules of Huating Shengshi for adding wine and drinks to people's drinks. During the whole process, she squatted and stood up only 9 times, and her lower back was already numb from the pain.

The breathing sounds from her mouth and nose became more and more disordered, and a dense layer of sweat gradually seeped out of her plump and round forehead.

High heels are indeed more like a "torture device" specially tailored for her by Huo Jiuzhou.

Ignoring the abnormality outside her body, Huo Jiuzhou raised his glass first with his long, bony fingers.

"To everyone."

The others immediately followed suit and raised their glasses without delay, their tone respectful and reserved.

"Cheers to Mr. Huo."

What followed was a long business conversation to entertain business travelers.

At this moment, Shi Rong had no intention of listening to their noisy conversations. She just wanted to find an inconspicuous corner to stand and make her back pain less severe.

This meticulously crafted man exudes a noble and elegant demeanor from head to toe, whether he is raising his glass to salute, nodding in agreement, or just parting his lips.

This made everyone present want to do everything they could to please him.

In order to have more exchanges and cooperation with the Huo family in the future, they didn't know the intention of Huo Jiuzhou suddenly calling everyone here tonight. They only knew that this was a rare opportunity and could not be missed!

"Pour the wine."

In just three hours, Shi Rong had squatted so many times that she couldn't even remember how many times she had done it. She just knew that if she continued like this, her fragile lower back would really break.

From beginning to end, she was the only waiter in charge of reception in the box.

Huo Jiuzhou deliberately did not notify other people to come, and ordered Shi Rong to do almost all the big and small things himself, dragging his fragmented and uncoordinated body.

"What do you think she looks like?"

Perhaps he knew what was going on, and Shi Rong couldn't hold on much longer.

Huo Jiuzhou then changed the subject, pointed at the woman who was squatting beside him pouring wine for him, and went straight to the topic of the night.

"Ah... this, anyone who can stay by Mr. Huo's side must be extraordinary."

He asked this question suddenly. Although no one could guess his true thoughts for a moment, everyone answered in a fawning and servile manner, and the flattery was self-evident.

"Yes, this woman is well-behaved and quiet. She knows when to act and when to retreat, and she also knows the big picture. After all, those trained by President Huo himself are the best."

"That's right. She is also very pretty and tall, and is suitable to serve Mr. Huo."

"Yes, Mr. Huo is surrounded by so many talented people."

……

No matter what their intention was in saying these words that were not what they meant, Shi Rong was not interested.

She knew very well that Huo Jiuzhou's intention in asking her to come over for the reception was simply to help Huo Wanwan vent her anger.

Apart from her and Zheng Yuyan, Shi Rong really couldn't think of anyone else who was worthy of him, President Huo, taking time out of his busy schedule to come and humiliate him in public.

"Oh? From what everyone said, they are very satisfied with her performance tonight? Then should I give her some rewards?"

Huo Jiuzhou's tone was casual, but the words he asked were not casual.

He was elegant and condescending, staring at the unmoved face of the woman beside him with great interest, and the mocking smile on his lips could not help but deepen a little.

Everyone was silent, just nodded.

Seeing this, Huo Jiuzhou chose to go with the flow. He stretched out his jade hand and snapped his fingers. Huo Xun behind him immediately came forward with a black leather suitcase full of cash and banknotes, and opened it in front of Shi Rong.

There were piles and bundles of red banknotes inside, so many that they were overflowing. It was estimated that there were at least 100 million of them.

Ordinary people would be overjoyed upon seeing this, but Shi Rong just glanced at him indifferently, without a trace of unnecessary greed in his eyes.

"What? Too little?"

Chief Huo Jiuzhou placed his fingers over the side of her face playfully, and his cold gaze noticed the indifference on her face, which he found particularly amusing.

"But that's all you deserve."

After he finished speaking, he casually grabbed a handful of banknotes and threw them down on Shi Rong's head without any care.

The force was not heavy, but it was painful. The bills fell one handful at a time, one piece at a time, until all were scattered. Shi Rong opened her eyes and looked. The ground around her was almost covered with bright red bills.

Shi Rong couldn't help but laugh at herself, and the fingertips of her clenched pink fists unconsciously dug into her palms.
