Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo

Chapter 87 Huo Chenjun's Request

Ning Tingbei's eyes were filled with tears, and every drop was filled with regret.

She tried to persuade him to stay, her voice trembling as she said, "Can't our relationship of so many years make up for this mistake? I really know I was wrong..."

However, Huo Chenjun's gaze was like an icy knife, showing no sign of backing down. "Infidelity is the greatest desecration of a marriage. I can't pretend it never happened," he said with unwavering force.

Ning Tingbei's eyes were filled with despair and unwillingness, tears silently rolled down her cheeks, her hands trembling, she almost begged, "Can we try again? I really don't want to get divorced. Is there no way our marriage can be saved?" Her words were mixed with helplessness and pleading, as if she was trying to grasp the last glimmer of hope.

"No." Huo Chenjun's attitude was firm and resolute, and every word he said was as heavy as ice.

Ning Tingbei stared at him for a long time without saying a word, and finally nodded slowly.

She took a deep breath, as if trying to accept this cruel fact.

Her hand gently stroked the tabletop, as if saying goodbye to something dear.

"Okay, I'll sign." Her voice was almost inaudible, but every word was filled with determination. She picked up the pen and signed slowly and heavily, as if signing her own fate.

After Ning Tingbei signed, Huo Chenjun left with the lawyer.

Before the lawyer left, He Ningtingbei said, "Mr. Huo has already informed the hospital about your hospitalization expenses, and he will pay for them all. From now on, there will be no relationship between you two."

Ning Tingbei covered his face and cried.

Huo Chenjun drove back to the company with a serious look on his face.

Inside the office, the sun shines obliquely, casting a golden glow on the heavy wooden desk, adding a touch of warmth.

Mr. Huo was reviewing documents, his brows furrowed, looking very focused.

At this moment, a burst of light footsteps broke the silence. Intern assistant Su Xianyun, holding a document in her hand, gently knocked on the office door.

Su Xianyun walked into the room, wearing a gray business suit with an elegant silk scarf around her neck. She was thin and had fair skin. Her beauty had a freshness that was untainted by the world, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes.

After Mr. Huo finished signing the documents, Su Xianyun was still standing beside him.

"Why don't you leave?" Mr. Huo's voice was low and powerful, and his usual majesty had not diminished in the slightest.

Su Xianyun bit her lip, and hesitated several times before finally summoning all her courage and saying, "Actually... I have a request."

"whats the matter?"

After a brief thought, she lowered her head and said cautiously, "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry to bother you, but there's a very urgent situation at home..."

Mr. Huo looked up, his sharp gaze penetrating his glasses and reaching directly into Su Xianyun's heart. He sensed that the woman before him wasn't just there to deliver the documents; she also had something else to say.

He gently put down his pen, motioned her to sit down, and said, "Sit down and talk."

Su Xianyun choked up a bit, then finally mustered the courage to tell the truth: "My mother recently fell ill and urgently needs a large sum of medical expenses. My family has tried their best to raise money, but it's still far from enough... I'd like to advance a year's salary. I know this is presumptuous, but I'm really desperate."

After hearing this, Mr. Huo frowned.

In this rigorous and orderly office environment, the air is filled with tension and pressure.

On the one hand, he felt that he could provide help with Su Xianyun's matter; on the other hand, he also knew that the company's regulations did not allow advance payment of wages.

After a brief silence, Mr. Huo took a deep breath and made a decision. "Su Xianyun, I understand your situation. As the head of the company, I cannot violate the rules and regulations. But as a person, I am willing to help you."

"Thank you, Mr. Huo."

"How much do you want?" he asked directly but politely, then pulled out his phone to make the transfer. His actions were quick and decisive, without any hesitation, showcasing his decisive leadership.

"20, is that okay?"

When Mr. Huo heard that Su Xianyun asked for 20 yuan of help, he frowned slightly. Although this was not a huge sum of money for him, it was not a small amount for an ordinary employee.

Tears welled up in Su Xianyun's eyes. She clutched the check tightly, her hands trembling. "Mr. Huo, I don't know how to thank you enough. This money is a real life saver for us. I promise I'll repay you as soon as I'm able..."

"How do you plan to pay it back? Tell me." Mr. Huo looked straight at her.

Su Xianyun met Mr. Huo's deep gaze, feeling mixed emotions in her heart, including uncertainty about the future and firmness in her commitment to herself.

"I can work overtime, I can do part-time jobs, or even live frugally. No matter what, I will save enough money as soon as possible and return it to you without a penny less." The determination and self-esteem revealed in his words eased the tense atmosphere in the air slightly.

Mr. Huo listened thoughtfully and nodded. "That's a good attitude," he paused. "Do you have a boyfriend?"

The atmosphere in the air became tense because of Mr. Huo's sudden question.

Su Xianyun was clearly not expecting this turn of conversation, and a flicker of surprise crossed her face, but she quickly regained her composure. "Not yet," she answered frankly. "Do you need my boyfriend as a guarantor? Are you worried that I can't pay it back on my own?"

"No." Huo Chenjun said calmly. He was not actually worried about this problem, and he was not short of this little money.

"Mr. Huo, I believe that with my own efforts, whether or not I have a partner's support, I can overcome difficulties and fulfill my promise."

Faced with Su Xianyun's firm, self-respecting and self-reliant attitude, President Huo felt a surge of admiration in his heart.

Mr. Huo thought that he was nearly 40 years old and needed a wife to give birth to his children. Su Xianyun in front of him had a master's degree and a gentle appearance. If he married Su Xianyun, it would be a good choice.

However, Huo Chenjun soon realized that there was an age gap of more than ten years between the two of them. This thought was immediately suppressed by his reason, but he didn't want to suppress it.

Mr. Huo's eyes were slightly deep, and he asked, "What's your bank card number?" His voice was low and clear, echoing in the quiet office without any extra words.

"Can I add you on WeChat? Can I send you my card number? If not, I'll email you when I get back to the office?"

Mr. Huo took out the QR code and asked her to scan it: "Add WeChat."

Su Xianyun immediately sent her bank card number to Mr. Huo.

Mr. Huo then completed the transfer.

"Please check it." After saying this, Mr. Huo put the phone back on the table and looked at Su Xianyun again, waiting for her confirmation.

Su Xianyun's phone soon sent a payment reminder. After checking it, a hint of relief flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "Got it, thank you for your help. I'll write you an IOU." The words were simple, but they were full of gratitude.

"You don't need to write an IOU, but," Mr. Huo replied calmly, then paused and said, "I have one more request."

"What's the request?" Su Xianyun asked.
