After making all her statements, she returned to her seat.
The manager from the Public Relations Department couldn’t help commenting, “I’ve always heard that Huangyou’s secretary is smart and efficient. Today I see it’s indeed true.”
The others didn’t say anything, but they all nodded in approval.
As for Chu Xiuhuang, he slightly raised one handsome eyebrow and looked at the chairman, “What do you think?”
Huo Jingshen perused the documents before finally saying, “I don’t want to see this kind of incident again.”
“Mr. Huo, rest assured, if such an event happens again, we at Huangyou will voluntarily resign from our partnership.” The secretary’s voice was soft, yet her words fell with a clear conviction.
Upon hearing this, the people present instinctively turned their heads towards Chu Xiuhuang.
After all, he was the real legal representative of Huangyou Investment. Nevertheless, Chu Xiuhuang remained calm and nonchalant. His lips curved into an evil smirk and his eyes were filled with amusement. His handsome face glowed without any hint of displeasure.
The crowd once again thought unanimously, apparently, the long-standing rumor was true. Young Chu had no real talent, he was all talk, and the actual decision-maker of Huangyou was this secretary!
Huo Jingshen’s thin lips lifted into a smirk, “In that case, I look forward to it.”
After the meeting ended and all the bystanders had departed, Chu Xiuhuang immediately stood up, loosened his tie, unbuttoned his dress shirt, and lit a cigarette for himself.
“That Xiao Yebai purposely planned this incident at the conference to smear me, that bastard did it on purpose.”
Huo Jingshen tossed the file on the table, “Your secretary hasn’t left yet, you can ask her to think of some other way to handle this.”
“That’s not necessary. Regardless, I can’t let big brother suffer any loss, can I?” Huo Jingshen remained silent.
Chu Xiuhuang clicked his tongue, feeling rather aggrieved.
He took a hard puff of his cigarette and suddenly dialed a number on his phone, “Secretary, place an order for flowers to be delivered to room 2202 at Nangong Hospital.”
“Yes.” Chu Xiuhuang smiled wickedly, “Let’s send 999 roses, red ones – the ones that symbolize love.”

Nangong Hospital.
Mo Weiyi woke up drowsily from her afternoon nap, disturbed by a commotion.
She opened her eyes, glanced at the time – it was four in the afternoon.
She decided to get up.
Auntie Jiang, can you check what’s happening outside?”
Auntie Jiang went out to check and returned promptly, “Princess, someone has sent flowers.”
Flowers?
Mo Weiyi blinked her beautiful cat-like eyes, “Then let them bring them in.”
“Um, but Rong An is worried…”
“What’s there to worry about? Just go ask who sent them.”
Auntie Jiang had no choice but to go back out and inquire. She returned and reported, “They said it’s from a young master surnamed Chu.”
Surname Chu?
Could it be Chu Xiuhuang?
“Let them bring it in.”
On Mo Weiyi’s orders, Auntie Jiang immediately went to open the door.
Soon, floral shop assistants started bringing in bouquets of roses one after another.
A few minutes later, Mo Weiyi sat in shock, her mouth agape at the entire room full of red roses.
What the hell was Chu Xiuhuang doing?
There were so many roses that the scent was overpowering, and she could barely suppress a sneeze.
Hardly had they sent away the flower delivery people when the phone rang.
It was a local number she was unfamiliar with.
“Who is this?”
“Little Princess.” A familiar frivolous male voice came from the other line, “Did you receive the roses I sent?”
Mo Weiyi rolled her eyes, “I’m only here for a few days, why would you send so many flowers?”
“Presenting flowers to a beauty, of course.”
So fake!
“Then thank you.”
Mo Weiyi followed suit: Fake!
Chu Xiuhuang chuckled, ‘You’re welcome. Just remember, you’re the first woman I’ve ever sent 999 roses to in my lifetime.”
Having said that, he hung up.
Mo Weiyi was completely bewildered.
“Mr. Xiao.” Suddenly, a bodyguard’s voice came from the door.
Mo Weiyi looked at the man entering with delight, “Xiaobai, how come you’re back so early? Are you here to keep me company?”
With that, a smile began to bloom on her face.
However, Xiao Yebai’s expression remained cold.
He looked at the spectacular sight in the hospital room, his voice low and his gaze behind his glasses even more obscure, “Who sent the flowers?”
Mo Weiyi blinked her cat eyes, “A friend.”
“Which friend?”
Mo Weiyi hesitated for a moment but finally admitted, “Chu Xiuhuang.” Xiao Yebai averted his gaze and moved to the side table, placing his phone and car keys down, “Rong An.”
A bodyguard in a black suit immediately came in, “Mr. Xiao.”
“Throw these flowers out.”
Mo Weiyi froze.
Rong An acknowledged the order and started to gather the flowers somewhat roughly and quickly..
“Wait a moment!” Mo Weiyi blurted out.
Xiao Yebai glanced at her indifferently, the glasses reflecting a sudden flash of light.
As if a cold blade had suddenly been unsheathed.
Mo Weiyi asked weakly, “Why throw them away? These flowers look so beautiful. It’s a pity to throw them away…”
“Pity?” Xiao Yebai sneered coldly, his voice filled with sarcasm, “The clothes jewelry, and shoes you’ve discarded in the past were worth much more than’ these. You’ve never expressed any regret before.”
Mo Weiyi:
For the time they had known each other, Xiao Yebai had always given the impression of being refined and calm, rarely showing any overt emotion.
And yet now, his tone and reaction starkly suggested….
“Are you jealous?”
As soon as she said it, Mo Weiyi immediately denied it.
As if Xiaobai would be jealous. That was as likely as a sow climbing a tree!
Expectedly, Xiao Yebai indifferently shifted his gaze away..
