Chapter 426: 426, Always Together
“Can’t you come over earlier?” She whined softly, “I’m so bored here all alone.”
“I have to accompany grandpa to meet the heads of the branches soon, I can’t getaway.”
Today’s anniversary celebration is huge. As the founder of the Mo Group, old Master Mo ceremoniously attends.
Mo Weiyi can only say, “Alright then, come over when you’re free. I’ll help you pick out a dress.”
“Ok.”
After hanging up the phone, a woman passes by pushing the door to enter.
Feeling that the figure seemed familiar, as Mo Weiyi walked into the store, he heard the salesperson at the counter saying, “Secretary Shi, this is the dress that Mr. Chu has reserved.”
“Alright, thank you.” Shi Huan picked up the bag and turned to leave.
**
Nangong Hospital.
Shi Huan rushed back to the ward and put down the bag, “Mr. Chu, here is the dress you requested.”
On the hospital bed, Chu Xiuhuang glanced at her, “Did you try it on?”
“What?”
“The dress, didn’t you try it on?” Chu Xiuhuang asked again.
Shi Huan blinked, “This dress is…”
“For tonight’s Mo Group anniversary celebration, naturally, the dress is for you.”
“Mr. Chu, I don’t need it.”
“No, you do.”
Shi Huan: “…”
“Didn’t I tell you before? When you attend public occasions, you naturally represent the image of Huangyou.”
Shi Huan nodded, “Alright.”
Anyway, he’s hospitalized, whether she wears it or not, he won’t be able to see.
But then Chu Xiuhuang said, “Try it on now.”
“No need,” Shi Huan immediately refused, “I just checked the size.”
“Hmm, does it fit well?” Chu Xiuhuang raised an eyebrow.
Having held her three times, and having seen her in a swimsuit, Chu Xiuhuang was confident in his estimates. The only thing he hadn’t measured was…
Chu Xiuhuang’s pair of phoenix eyes sneakily looked at Shi Huan.
From the bikini she was wearing that day, she didn’t seem overwhelmingly busty, but she should look pretty nice.
“Mr. Chu? Mr. Chu? Mr. Chu?”
Chu Xiuhuang hurriedly came back to his senses.
Shi Huan frowned, “What are you looking at?”
She lowered her head to check.
Wondering if she had gotten her clothes dirty.
But there was nothing.
Chu Xiuhuang turned his face away, his Adam’s apple suspiciously bobbing up and down a few times, as if suppressing some emotion.
Shi Huan’s brows furrowed even tighter.
She lowered her head to check again.
She noticed nothing wrong with her outfit, it was a black high collar sweater, and it was a loose fit too.
Finally, Chu Xiuhuang turned his face back and asked seriously, “How’s the company’s business going recently?”
Shi Huan’s eye twitched violently.
He is actually concerned about the company’s business?
“Hm?” Chu Xiuhuang’s phoenix eyes narrowed.
Shi Huan quickly said, “The communication process with Huan Teng is completed. I’ll have the contract brought over tomorrow for Mr. Chu to sign. The resort project with Huo Yuan is ongoing. As for Bingo’s upcoming publicity plans…”
“Cancel cooperation with Bingo.” Chu Xiuhuang interrupted directly.
“Why?”
Mr. Zhou from Bingo is a clever man, and the cooperation with Huangyou has been pleasant over the years.
Chu Xiuhuang impatiently narrowed his eyes again, “Director Shen actually tried to take advantage of my injury to molest me, do you think we can continue to cooperate?”
“But if we terminate the contract now, we the breaching party, not only have to compensate for the breach of contract, but also all the costs of this event…”
“I don’t care, terminate the cooperation immediately.”
“…Okay.”
The boss has money to throw around, as a secretary, Shi Huan could only agree.
Although she thought the fact that Director Shen molested him was somewhat unbelievable.
Next, Shi Huan reported the progress of her work, Chu Xiuhuang listened, time ticked by, everything seemed harmonious.
Until the door was suddenly knocked.
Shi Huan went to open it.
“Secretary Shi.” It was Chu Xiuhuang’s private villa’s maid, holding a large bag, “These are the clothes Mr. Chu needs.”
“Thank you, Auntie Wu.” Shi Huan took the bag.
Thinking it was a change of clothes, but then Chu Xiuhuang said, “Hand it to me.”
Shi Huan handed it over.
Chu Xiuhuang opened up the outer cover, revealing a three-piece suit inside.
Chu Xiuhuang raised his hand to unbutton the hospital gown he was wearing, quickly removing the top to reveal his bare, well-toned upper body.
Shi Huan watched him, seeming a bit stupefied.
It wasn’t until Chu Xiuhuang undid his belt and then, with his gorgeous thin lips hooked up wickedly, asked, “Little Huanhuan, do you like what you see?” Shi Huan’s mind exploded and she quickly turned around.
“Heh.” A man’s low chuckle came from behind her.
Shi Huan didn’t speak again, she heard the rustling sounds from behind her, feeling her face gradually heating up.
Chu Xiuhuang’s physique…
Needless to say…
He was nearly 1.9 meters tall and had practiced martial arts for years, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a standard male model figure.
Furthermore, he wasn’t the pale-skinned type, but he wasn’t dark either. He had a very healthy wheat complexion, which balanced out his slightly effeminate facial features. He was wickedly charming, very masculine and gentlemanly.
A ranking list of the top ten sexiest men in Nancheng was previously posted on a social media platform, and Chu Xiuhuang, outranking all the male artists, received the most votes. Looking back now, he truly deserved it.
An eight-pack abdomen, uniform and good-looking, not too muscular yet not too frail.
Even in the loosely fitting hospital gown, you could see that…
Realizing what she was thinking, Shi Huan’s face suddenly blushed.
Having put on his trousers, Chu Xiuhuang picked up a shirt from the side. As he put it on, he watched the young woman in front of him.
She stood there with her back to him, her back straight as a rod, her lustrous black hair reaching only to her shoulder’s length. It wasn’t styled, but the quality was good, shiny and glossy.
With his thin lips gently sketching out a trace of an arc, Chu Xiuhuang said, “I’m ready.”
Shi Huan didn’t turn around.
Only when the warmth on her face had finally subsided, she expressionlessly turned around.
The next second.
“Mr. Chu, are you going out?”
Chu Xiuhuang was actually wearing the three-piece suit, even his tie was neatly tied.
Chu Xiuhuang lifted his long brows, “It’s Mo Group’s anniversary celebration, what do you think?”
“But your… health…” Shi Huan couldn’t help but glance towards a certain part of the man.
He had been hospitalized because of an injury in that area. Was he sure he could go out?
Chu Xiuhuang flashed a devilish grin, “I’ve got it covered, as long as it isn’t touched.”
Shi Huan: “…”
“So Secretary Shi, remember to stick with me every step of the way tonight,” Chu Xiuhuang added.
Shi Huan replied with a forced smile, “Understood.”
**
At six o’clock in the evening, Huashang Hotel.
At the hotel’s entrance on the first floor, a red carpet stretched from the banquet hall all the way to the roadside parking lot.
Many stars and artists were invited to help cheer on the event, including several current popular idols. Plus, tonight’s attendees were all Nancheng’s elites, including representatives from several major families. It was a gathering of the grand, with an astounding display of fanfare.
Outside the security barriers, besides fans and onlookers, most of the others were journalists from various media outlets.
Even though the cold wind was howling, the on-scene atmosphere was incredibly vibrant. Everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of the celebrities.
Shi Huan parked the car and waited for a while. Then she turned to Chu Xiuhuang and asked, “Mr. Chu, aren’t you getting out of the car?”
Chu Xiuhuang’s face was tense.
He was not happy.
Very unhappy.
This woman insisted upon changing into her dress inside the banquet hall and adamantly refused to change into her evening dress right away.
Didn’t she realize they had to walk the red carpet?
“Mr. Chu?”
As soon as the question was voiced, Chu Xiuhuang forcefully pushed open the car door.
As if taking offense, he walked away.
Shi Huan hurriedly got out of the car, handed the car keys to the valet, grabbed her bag and hurriedly followed after.
Outside the security barriers, fans had already started holding up signs and shouting crazily.
“Brother Fire Emperor is so handsome!”
“We will always love you, Brother Fire Emperor!”
“Fly high, Brother Fire Emperor. May your fire always follow you.”
The pair of sister stars who had just passed by were the current sensations of the entertainment industry. Yet, the shouting of Chu Xiuhuang’s fans… totally drowned them out.
How embarrassing!
Shi Huan stayed three steps behind Chu Xiuhuang. When they reached the press area, her hand was suddenly pulled, and then looped onto a man’s arm.
Before she could react, the sound of camera shutters went off in front of her. Shi Huan resisted the urge to pull her hand away, slightly hooking up the corners of her lips and looked at the reporters.
A microphone was immediately thrust in front of her, “We heard Mr. Chu was not feeling well recently. Could you say something to your concerned fans?”
Chu Xiuhuang’s smile was radiant, “Thankyou all for your concern, I’m feeling very well.”
