Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo

When the wedding banquet ended, Gu Zhian never saw Tang Xiaqing again.

At that moment, Jessica, Mr. Gu's assistant at the Hong Kong headquarters, walked briskly over to him. Jessica was wearing a light beige business suit and had a neat short haircut, which made her look smart and capable.

With a hint of curiosity and gossip on her face, she asked, "Mr. Gu, who was that lady you were talking to earlier? I vaguely heard you wanted to add her on WeChat, but she refused. This is the first time I've seen a lady act so arrogantly in front of you."

Gu Zhian's face darkened instantly. He was usually cold and serious, but at this moment his eyes were filled with displeasure.

"This woman looks familiar. Does she look like the woman in the photo frame on your desk?" Jessica asked again.

Jessica was slightly taken aback by the words. Perhaps it was because she had drunk a little, but the usually strict and polite Jessica was a little less restrained at this moment.

In addition, this was not a serious place like an office, and the effect of alcohol made her bolder, and she unknowingly crossed the line and asked a few more questions.

From the moment she joined the company, she was deeply impressed by Gu Zhian's wisdom and handsomeness. Jessica also admired Gu Zhian's outstanding talent and decisive decision-making ability at work.

Mr. Gu didn't directly answer Jessica's question. Instead, he asked in a dignified tone, "You've sorted out Xingqi Group's investment risk report and the marketing department's budget review form for next quarter, right? We plan to return to Hong Kong in two days, and we have new projects to develop."

When Jessica heard this, her heart skipped a beat and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

She quickly straightened up, her expression becoming very serious, and replied, "Not yet, Mr. Gu. The data in the current investment risk report still needs further verification, and the marketing department's budget review form is also being compiled."

Gu Zhian glanced at her coldly, his voice devoid of warmth as he said, "Send it to me before 12 noon tomorrow, and confirm the data with the deputy general manager in charge before sending it."

After saying that, he strode out of the banquet hall.

Jessica looked at Gu Zhian's departing back and couldn't help but muttered softly: "You are so strict with us subordinates, and I actually found that you also have a humble moment tonight."

Although the words were spoken softly, Gu Zhian still heard them. He stopped, turned slowly, and looked at Jessica with sharp eyes.

Jessica panicked, thinking she had said something wrong and annoyed Gu Zhian, and hurriedly explained: "Mr. Gu, I didn't mean it, I just felt..."

Gu Zhian interrupted her, his eyes becoming deep. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Work and personal life are two different things. You don't need to worry about things that are not related to work."

Jessica looked at Mr. Gu's retreating back and nodded thoughtfully. She knew Gu Zhian's decisiveness and high standards at work, and she was surprised to see this rare side of him tonight.

After a while, Huo Chenjun's driver arrived.

On the way back in the car, Tang Xiaqing lowered her head slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said softly to Huo Chenjun: "I want to go back to my own home tonight and live alone."

Huo Chenjun was slightly startled, then turned to look at Tang Xiaqing and said, "Then can you stay at my house tomorrow? I have a few meetings tomorrow morning. I'll pick you up at two o'clock in the afternoon to get the marriage certificate. How about that?"

Tang Xiaqing thought for a moment, nodded gently, and said, "Okay. But you don't need to pick me up. I'll drive to the Civil Affairs Bureau by myself tomorrow afternoon. This will also save you time. You are so busy at work." Her tone was flat, but revealed a sense of independence and consideration.

After a while, Tang Xiaqing suddenly raised her head and asked softly, "What do you like about me?"

He turned his head and looked at Tang Xiaqing affectionately. After a long moment, he slowly said, "I like your cheerful personality. Being with you is always full of sunshine and energy. Your laughter can dispel all my fatigue, especially after years of facing the intrigues of the business world."

Having said that, he paused slightly, a hint of desire in his eyes, and said in an exceptionally low voice in her ear: "And your non-clinging personality gives us enough space, allowing me to handle my work with peace of mind. Of course, I'm still a normal man, and I also like your body..."
