Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo

Chapter 267 The only weak spot

After returning to their home in Yunzhou, Mr. Huo put his cell phone on the bedroom table and went to take a shower first.

The sound of rushing water could be heard and mist gradually spread, covering up his slightly tired expression.

Then the phone on his desk rang, and his wife Tang Xiaqing saw a partial preview of a WeChat message: "Mr. Huo, I'm pregnant, and I don't know what to do?..."

The other party's name is "Secretary Xiao Su".

Tang Xiaqing's hand paused.

Secretary Xiao Su? That young and beautiful female secretary? Tang Xiaqing's mind quickly flashed back to Xiao Su's image—she always wore a well-fitting professional attire, had a sweet smile, and was efficient in her work.

She didn't know whether she should rush into the bathroom and question Mr. Huo immediately.

At this moment, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped. Mr. Huo came out, wiping his hair. Seeing Tang Xiaqing sitting by the bed with a strange look on her face, he asked, "What's wrong? You don't look well."

Tang Xiaqing is straightforward and doesn't like to beat around the bush. She said to Mr. Huo directly: "I'm unhappy. You need to give me an explanation. What does this message mean in the middle of the night?" Her tone was cold and there was obvious anger in her eyes.

Mr. Huo was confused: "Did you look at my phone?"

"I don't have your password, I just saw part of the preview." Tang Xiaqing responded.

Huo Chenjun picked up his phone and saw it was a message from his secretary, Su Xianyun. He immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, frowning, and said to Tang Xiaqing in a serious tone, "Don't worry, I'll get to the bottom of this." Then, he called Su Xianyun in person and put her on speakerphone.

As soon as the call was connected, President Huo directly questioned: "Xiao Su, what did that message you sent mean? Are you pregnant? Why are you looking for me in the middle of the night? Even if you need to ask for leave, you should contact the Human Resources Department."

Xiao Su's voice trembled slightly on the other end of the phone, and she cried, "Boss Huo, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause you any trouble. The child... the child is Vice President Bo's. He doesn't want to get married, and he doesn't want to take responsibility. I really had no other choice, so I thought of asking you for help... After all, you are his boss."

After hearing this, Mr. Huo's face became even gloomier.

He took a deep breath and scolded her sternly, "Xiao Su, don't get it wrong. You are my secretary and I am your superior, not your personal assistant! You should solve problems for me, not create them! How could you casually send me a message about something like this? And my wife saw it. Do you know how troublesome this is?"

Xiao Su burst into tears on the other end of the phone and apologized repeatedly: "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry, I really don't know what to do... Bo Lizhan won't answer my calls now, so I..."

President Huo interrupted her, his tone softening slightly but still serious: "Alright, stop crying. I'll talk to Vice President Bo about this, but you have to take responsibility for your actions. Come to the company tomorrow and I'll call him to talk to you in person."

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Huo rubbed his temples and felt a headache.

He said calmly, "I've clarified the situation. The child isn't mine, it's Vice President Bo's. Xiao Su just didn't know what to do, so she messaged me."

Tang Xiaqing raised her head and responded, "I heard it too. So that's how it is."

President Huo nodded and said firmly, "I will talk to Vice President Bo tomorrow and I will handle this matter properly. Don't worry, I don't have that much courage."

Tang Xiaqing raised an eyebrow, her tone teasing but also tinged with concern: "Really? I was in the car today and saw you speaking in such a sharp tone. You're quite courageous. Your business rivals are all afraid of you when they see you."

Huo Chenjun shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That's in business. How would I dare to do that to Mrs. Huo at home? You're my superior."

When he said this, his tone was playful, yet also serious. He paused, his gaze softened, and his voice deepened: "You are my only weakness. No matter how fierce and serious I am outside, I will always be attached to the gentle harbor of home."
