âThat wonât do. Youâve helped me a lot, and Iâm starving. Besides, I can have meatballs at home anytime. Why donât ⦠we go to the tea restaurant opposite? What do you think? I have a discount coupon, so I can treat you to a big meal.â
âReally, you donât have to.â
âDonât be polite. Youâve been interning here for so long, and we have never had a meal together. Letâs go, letâs go.â
He is enthusiastically insistent.
Helpless, Su Wanwan had to follow him downstairs.
Exiting the broadcasting station, she saw a black luxury car parked by the road.
At first, Su Wanwan didnât pay much attention until she was about to cross the road, passing by the car, when a sudden honk startled her.
She instinctively turned around.
The taillights turned on, and under the night sky, the license plate number was striking.
N696969?
Holy crap.
She quickly said, âIâm sorry, my husband is here to pick me up, I have to go.â
Huang Gangsheng glanced at the luxury car, âIs this your husbandâs car?â
Su Wanwan nodded.
The look on Huang Gangshengâs face changed instantly, âAlright, you should go.â
After Su Wanwan got in the car, the black Mulsanne slowly drove away. Huang Gangsheng stood there, in shock for quite a while.
A Mulsanne worth nearly ten million!
OMG!
This Su Wanwan, it seems the rumors about her marrying a wealthy tycoon are true!

In the car.
Su Wanwan smilingly looked at her tycoon husband, âWhy didnât you give me a heads up that you were coming to pick me up?â
Huo Jingshen narrowed his eyes, his face solemn, âMy car has been parked here for half a day, and you were only interested in laughing with another man? If I didnât honk, were you planning on going with him?â
Su Wanwan was taken aback, âI didnât see, okay? You should have texted me.â
Huo Jingshenâs face tightened, âWho was that man?â
âA colleague.â After Su Wanwan finished speaking, she immediately added, âHe has a girlfriend and is preparing to get married. I was helping him with overtime, so he kindly wanted to treat me to dinner. Can you stop being jealous over nothing?â
Huo Jingshenâs tone softened slightly, âHavenât you had your dinner yet?â
âNot yet, Iâm starving.â Su Wanwan unbuttoned and removed her coat, throwing it back.
âDo you have to work overtime again tomorrow?â
Su Wanwan quickly reassured him, âNo, no, I donât need to go back until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I have several days off!â
Presuming that he would be pleased by this, Huo Jingshen, however, glanced at her indifferently, âAs an intern, you are busier than me, the CEO.â
Rolling her eyes, Su Wanwan retorted, âYou are the CEO. You can choose not to work whenever you want. What about your employees below? If you order them to work overtime, donât they have to slave away in the office?â
âThey voluntarily chose to work overtime,â Huo Jingshen said calmly, âbecause they can earn three times their normal wages during the holidays.â
Su Wanwan: ââ¦.â
Alright then.
Youâre the capitalist, so you must be right.
Her phone suddenly rang, Su Wanwan glanced at it and immediately picked it up, âHello?â
âWanwan, itâs me.â
âWhatâs up?â Su Wanwan frowned.
Ever since being bitten by KO, Qiao Zixin had been behaving for quite a while, almost no news at all. Why is she suddenly calling now?
âWanwan, didnât you know? Uncle has been promoted to the district head.â
Hearing this news, Su Wanwan felt no emotion, if anything, she almost chuckled, âIs that right? Then, congratulations to him.â
âWhat kind of reaction is that? Your father got promoted. You should be happy for him.â
âOh, anything else?â
âWe sisters havenât seen each other in a long time, right? Itâs the New Year holidays now, donât you plan to go home and visit? Grandfather and Uncle, they both miss you, you know.â
Qiao Zixinâs endless chatter was getting on Su Wanwanâs nerves, âI already asked Yang Aunt, my grandfatherâs health is fine.â
Indeed, she hadnât been home in a while. Usually, she would call Yang Aunt once in a while to ask about Su Xueqinâs health condition.
As for Su Yuntang.
Heh.
When has he ever treated her as his daughter?
All this time and not a single call to ask about her.
Why should she take the initiative to make things up with him, sycophantically offering up her usually warm face for his cold disregard?
Perhaps in his heart, only Su Yanyan is his daughter, even though Su Yanyan is such a venomous, scandalous creature, he still doesnât care about his elder daughter.
âRegardless, we are still a family, and families donât hold grudges overnight. Wanwan, what happened before was Yanyanâs fault, but your grandfather and uncle have already punished herâ¦â
âAlright, thatâs enough, I have things to do. Iâll hang up now.â
After that, Su Wanwan immediately hung up.
So annoying, my good mood is completely ruined.
âWhose call was it?â Huo Jingshen asked.
âMy cousin.â
Qiao Zixin?
Huo Jingshen raised his eyebrows slightly, âA few days ago, I had someone look into that club.â
âWhat club? Look into what?â Su Wanwan looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.
âThe night you were drugged, your cousin was also at that club.â
ââ¦â Su Wanwan opened her mouth wide in surprise.
After a long while, she asked,âSo you suspect my cousin drugged me? Why?â
Huo Jingshen, his long, bony fingers gripping the steering wheel, his face focused, his eyes slightly narrowed, âBe careful around her in the future.â
Su Wanwan quickly nodded.
Her relationship with Qiao Zixin wasnât really good.
But all along, aside from sending a dog after her when they were kids, Qiao Zixin hadnât done anything too outrageous.
Why would she suddenly want to drug her for no reason?
And even used an aphrodisiac.
At that time, she was drinking with Ye Qitian. If Huo Jingshen hadnât rushed over in timeâ¦
Holy crap!
Does Qiao Zixin hate her that much?
Does she want to ruin her reputation?
Suddenly thinking about what Mo Weiyi said at noon, Su Wanwanâs mind was in a whirl, âHoly crap, did my cousin fall in love with you?â
Huo Jingshen glanced at her sideways without denying it.
Su Wanwan: ââ¦â
Damn it!
Is it really true?
If it were in the past, she would never have believed it, but after what happened to Qu Yunyao, Su Wanwan suddenly realized that reality is often more absurd than novels and TV dramas!
If Qu Yunyao could fall for her brother-in-law, then itâs natural for Qiao Zixin to fall for her brother-in-law!
Looking at the devastatingly handsome face of Huo Jingshen, Su Wanwan suddenly clenched her fist, âHusband, donât worry, Iâll protect your chastity, I wonât let my cousin defile and take advantage of you!â
Huo Jingshen: ââ¦â
It was the first time in 30 years he had a woman tell him she would protect hisâ¦chastity. And the woman was a girl 10 years younger than him.
Huo Jingshen couldnât quite describe the odd feeling in his heart, especially when he looked at Su Wanwanâs serious little face. He couldnât help but find it funny. Seeing a red light at the intersection ahead, he stopped the car and squeezed her soft cheek.
âBaby, take care of yourself first.â
âIâm serious!â Su Wanwan looked at his elegant and handsome face, âOf course, you also need to protect yourself, because if you get touch by other women, I will not want you!â
âI remember you were hugged by Ye Qitian.â Huo Jingshen squinted, his handsome figure dangerous and sexy, âBefore you ask me, shouldnât you set an example first?â
Su Wanwan coughed twice.
Damn it, when did that happen?
He still remembers?
Heâs a big jealous pot!
âAlright, alright, itâs green light, letâs go. I want to eat the beef noodles you make.â Su Wanwan stroked him along the grain.
Huo Jingshen slowly took his eyes back, âAlright, the husband will make some noodles for you when we get home.â
Su Wanwan: ââ¦..â
Thisâ¦
The old driver is pushing the accelerator!
Whatever.
Iâm at fault, let him take advantage of the words a bit. After all, these days Iâve been busy with the internship, getting up early and returning late, I really have been neglecting him.
â¦
When they were almost home, Su Wanwan suddenly thought of something, âI donât need to go to the TV station tomorrow, can you go to the hospital with me in the morning?â
âFor what?â
âPresident Xiao is sick, as a friend we should visit him, right?â
Huo Jingshen scoffed at her mockingly, âMaybe he doesnât consider you a friend.â
Su Wanwan: ââ¦â
Damn it!
Does he have to⦠hit the nail on the head like this?
Su Wanwan justified her position, âIf others donât understand, that doesnât mean I shouldnât! Weiyi is my best girlfriend, her husband is so ill, as her friend, we should go to the hospital. Plus, Iâm on vacation right now. Of course, if you donât want to, Iâll go alone.â
Huo Jingshenâs jaw tightened slightly.
A moment later, he spoke coldly, âDid I say I didnât want to?â
Su Wanwan immediately scooted over and hugged his arm, âYouâre the best, husband!â
