Her family member was not only heartbroken.

Huo Jiuxiao had been in AFF’s underground parking lot for almost an hour. In this hour, he had heard more than ten people complaining about his wife. Among them, there were a few higher-ups who plotted to cause trouble for Lin Wanli because his wife had cut off their source of income.

Just ten minutes ago, they came out of AFF’s elevator together.

[Lin Wanli, that b*tch, I really have to teach her a lesson. She dares to interfere in everything. It’s really disgusting.]

[I have to find some trouble and give her a warning. Otherwise, she won’t know whose territory this is.]

[You’re meddling in men’s affairs. Did she really think that she could cut off our income just because she has some ability?]

Huo Jiuxiao had been taking a nap in the car. When he heard the complaints in their hearts, he ordered Song Huaishu to get out of the car to arrange a meal.

It had been a long time since anyone went down to visit Master Xiao’s sewers. Although he did not think that Lin Wanli would fall into a trap, since he had heard it, he naturally could not let this matter go.

Were people nowadays so ignorant? Any Tom, Dick, or Harry would dare to come and scam him?

When Lin Wanli got into the car, she knew what was going on when she saw Master Xiao’s expression. Whenever Master Xiao showed this expression, it meant that someone was going to be in trouble.

This husband and wife were protective of each other.

Before Song Huaishu returned, Huo Jiuxiao quickly pulled her into his arms and kissed her.

When the atmosphere in the car rose, Lin Wanli quickly reached out to cover Master Xiao’s lips and reminded him in her heart.

[Song Huaishu will be back.]

Actually, Song Huaishu had already returned. He was just hiding outside and did not dare to get into the car directly.

After all, he had followed Huo Jiuxiao for many years, so he could more or less Imow what Huo Jiuxiao was thinking.

“President Lin, let’s go on a date. Is there anywhere you especially want to go with me?”

Lin Wanli adjusted her position in his arms and said.

[Let’s go to the beach and gaze at the stars.]

In fact, they could see stars just outside Yujing Peak, but there were too many people around, and it was not the best viewing point.

Huo Jiuxiao thought for a moment, “I know a good place.”

However, it was not a scenic spot and was rather remote. It was under a cliff and was one of Huo Jiuxiao’s escape grounds back then.

The car could only drive up to the top of a semi-circular boulder.

It was not tainted by red, revealing the most primitive navy blue, which contrasted with half of the moon, making it especially bright.

[Unfortunately, there are not many stars.]

Lin Wanli looked up at the sky and said regretfully in her heart.

“Why don’t you take a look again?”

Lin Wanli looked down at Huo Jiuxiao and stared into his eyes seriously.

[I was wrong. There is clearly the most beautiful star.]

Huo Jiuxiao wrapped his arms around her neck and kissed her lower lip. His voice became hoarse and deep. “Did you really come here to look at the stars?” Lin Wanli’s entire body heated up. She wanted to dodge, but she could not. Because Huo Jiuxiao could hear exactly what she was thinking. “I thought you wanted to change places and get me.”

Lin Wanli straightened up and held Huo Jiuxiao’s cheek, her breathing becoming sticky.

[Since you know, why say it? I miss you.]

Then, Lin Wanli got what she wanted.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, and heaven and earth were like blankets. What they felt was heavenly. At that moment, they only had each other. Bathing in the same moonlight and breathing in the same cool breeze, it was as if they had eternity…

[Huo Jiuxiao, you’re mine, mine alone. You belong to me, Lin Wanli, but how can I prove it?]

“Stupid, there’s a marriage certificate and household register. Two years ago, when we registered our marriage, I told myself that unless you took the initiative, I would never get a divorce.” Lin Wanli hugged Huo Jiuxiao’s neck tightly.

[I love you.]

“Thinking again?”

Between them, was mentioning love, not an invitation in that aspect?

This time, Lin Wanli took the initiative to raise her head and ask for a kiss from her lover.

When the sky turned blue, they returned to Yujing Peak to wash up.

Lin Wanli took a nap in Huo Jiuxiao’s arms. After daybreak, she drove to AFF to work in high spirits.

However, as soon as she reached her level, her secretary quickly got up from her seat and greeted Lin Wanli. “The inspector sent by the headquarters has arrived. She has been waiting in your office for a long time. She is a lady not to be trifled with.”

Lin Wanli nodded. She understood her secretary’s intentions, but she did not look burdened at all when she pushed the door open and entered the office.

In front of the office chair stood a tall and fashionably dressed woman. She was wearing a tight-fitting strapless sweater and a black leather skirt. She had heavy makeup on, making her look like a flaming rose.

Just as Lin Wanli was examining the other party, the other party was also examining her.

She sized her up and then raised her eyebrows casually.

“You handled AFF’s crisis public relations?” The other party’s words were provocative, and she was even unwilling to tell Lin Wanli her name.

“What can I do for you?” Lin Wanli asked politely. However, the distance in her eyes made people feel pressured. “If I say it’s stupid, you probably can’t refute it, right?”

“May I ask your identity and authority?”

“To supervise you.”

“That’s right. You’re just supervising, not giving orders.” Lin Wanli flipped her hair and sat down on the sofa in the reception area.

If you have nothing else to do, I still have a lot of things to deal with today.”

The other party glared at her and said, “You’ve damaged AFF’s reputation.

You’ve let the whole world see AFF as a joke. This has made the headquarters very dissatisfied. Lin Wanli, how are you going to clean up this mess? Do you know how much AFF’s stock has fallen today because of your misdeeds? What high-level negotiation expert? Did you buy the title to gain fame?”

“Why are you so agitated?” Lin Wanli was not angry. She just smiled. “I can tell that you’re very dissatisfied with me. But, forgive me for being presumptuous, but what’s your nationality?”

“Of course I’m from Country Z.”

“Since you’re from the same country, then let me ask you again. Why can’t our people enjoy Europe service standards? I don’t know what your background is, nor do I want to know what your strength is. But before you provoke me, I hope that you will face your nationality.”

After saying that, Lin Wanli walked up to the woman and took her documents.

“I have a meeting. Are you coming?

The other party looked at Lin Wanli’s back and frowned. This woman was harder to deal with than she had imagined.

In fact, she was not only here for AFF. She had other missions.

What right did this woman have to be chosen by the Huo Family and arranged to be the future mistress of the house?
