Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo

Chapter 243 A Mystery

Tang Xiaqing lowered her eyes, clutching a corner of the quilt with her hand, and said clearly, "According to the criteria you mentioned, he has never touched me, so Gu Zhian is not considered an ex-boyfriend."

After saying that, Tang Xiaqing raised her head and looked at Huo Chenjun quietly, as if waiting for his reaction.

"He and I are only at the level of emotional exchange. You said last time that it is necessary to tell you only if we have had sex before. You said that just holding hands, eating together, reading and studying together do not count." Tang Xiaqing added.

After hearing what Tang Xiaqing said, Huo Chenjun was silent for a moment.

He turned his head, looked at Tang Xiaqing's long eyelashes, and asked, "Can I have a cigarette?"

Tang Xiaqing shook her head: "No."

Huo Chenjun responded: "Okay."

Huo Chenjun knew Gu Zhian - the man who once loved Tang Xiaqing deeply but left her.

Then he reached out and gently held Tang Xiaqing's hand, his thumb gently stroking the back of her hand.

Then, Huo Chenjun exerted a little force, pulled Tang Xiaqing into his arms, and said softly, "Little Princess, thank you for telling me this frankly. The past is in the past. What I care about is the present and the future. You are by my side now, and that is what matters most."

“I haven’t finished yet…”

"Uh, what else?" Huo Chenjun was stunned.

"When Chaoyang Company, a subsidiary of our Tanghai Group, raised funds, the investor was Qiaowang Group. However, Qiaowang Group is controlled by Boyuan Group."

Huo Chenjun's hand then gently rested on Tang Xiaqing's hair, his movements gentle and soothing. He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze radiating calmness and composure as he spoke slowly, "You know what? When you told me a company wanted to discuss an investment with you, out of caution, I had already arranged for someone to thoroughly investigate the company in question."

When Tang Xiaqing heard this, her eyes, which were originally full of affection, suddenly widened, and her eyes were full of surprise.

She raised her head slightly, looked at Huo Chenjun in disbelief, and blurted out: "So do you know everything?"

Huo Chenjun shook his head gently, his movements neither hurried nor slow, his expression calm and composed. His eyes were clear and deep, as if he could see through everything without being disturbed.

"Of course not." Huo Chenjun's voice was low and steady, revealing calmness. "In business cooperation, ensuring the legality of the source of funds is crucial. I first focus on the other party's business background, financial status, and reputation. Boyuan Group has a long-standing reputation in the industry, strong strength, and standardized operations. All indicators meet my usual criteria for a partner."

"You are so cautious." Tang Xiaqing sighed.

At this point, Huo Chenjun paused for a moment, his gaze sharpening as if he could see through the space before him and grasp a deeper perspective. "My investigation at the time focused on the business side, assessing whether this collaboration posed any potential risks and whether it could create a win-win situation for both parties. Everything I did was based on the rigor and professionalism of business decision-making."

"This is something I should learn from. I have never thought about it before. My family used to train my brother as the successor of the group." Tang Xiaqing said.

"I understand, so I will teach you slowly in the future. But regarding this project, I couldn't have thought of the fact that Gu Zhian was your ex-boyfriend, and it was unlikely that I would have found out. I have a feeling that you didn't know it at the beginning either."

Tang Xiaqing listened quietly to Huo Chenjun's story, and her admiration for his calmness, wisdom and prudence increased.

She realized that Huo Chenjun always maintained a high degree of rationality and professionalism when handling things. This trait enabled him to navigate the complex business world with ease and made her full of confidence in their future together.

"Yes, I just found out recently that he is the investor behind the new project." Tang Xiaqing leaned lightly on Huo Chenjun's shoulder.

Huo Chenjun gently stroked Tang Xiaqing's hair, his eyes a little distant, and said slowly: "Now that you say that, the mystery that has been in my heart has been solved."

Tang Xiaqing tilted her head slightly, her eyes full of confusion. She looked up at Huo Chenjun and asked softly, "What's the mystery?"
