After Learning How to Read Minds, Mr. Huo Takes Me to Bed Every Night!

Chapter 116: I’m Just Recuperating, Not Dead

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lin Wanli had a four-hour video conference in the study. When she finished her work and walked out of the study, Huo Jiuxiao was in the garden having a discussion with Song Huaishu and the Vice President of Diheng.

Lu Xunyan left behind a mess. Although Huo Jiuxiao didn’t want to clean it up and was resistant to messy trifles, he suppressed his evasive attitude when he thought of protecting his wife and daughter. He looked at the people in management and said, “Tell me.”

“Master Xiao, Diheng is in a mess right now. Everyone is panicking. The shareholders have called me countless times to find out about your situation. They want to know if anyone is going to be in charge of Diheng.” The Vice President held a large stack of documents with a helpless expression.

“I’m just recuperating, not dead.” Huo Jiuxiao’s eyes were filled with frustration. “Which shareholder can’t stand the loneliness? Tell him to contact me.”

“What about the future?” Actually, the management wanted to test who would be in charge of Diheng in the future.

Huo Jiuxiao raised an eyebrow and asked, ‘Why don’t you take over?”

“I don’t have that ability.” The Vice President broke out in cold sweat and kept waving his hands.

“Take advantage of the next few days of preparation for the shareholders’ meeting to submit a list of Lu Xunyan’s trusted aides. I’ll say this first. If I manage Diheng, you guys will suffer.”

When the Vice President heard that, he looked up at Huo Jiuxiao in surprise.

Song Huaishu was even more delighted, the corners of his mouth almost reaching the back of his head.

In the end, the Vice President came conscientiously and left happily.

[Master, I know. In fact, you strongly resist running a company and are not interested in anything. Madam told me that your condition is called willpower decline. I also suddenly understood why you hated this world so much. If I had to listen to so much nonsense every day, I would also feel that I have nothing to live for. But…]

[Since you’ve already chosen to live, does that mean you’re willing to change slowly?]

[Madam has instructed me to take over the things that you’re unwilling to do. If you don’t want to see someone, we can meet them for you. As long as you have a little more enthusiasm for life today than yesterday, that’s a bonus.]

“You talk too much.” Huo Jiuxiao glared at Song Huaishu, his gaze returning to the game interface on his phone. He would probably never be able to feel the passion of life again in his lifetime, but he didn’t want Lin Wanli to cry.

Lin Wanli stood on the steps and felt the slight change in Huo Jiuxiao. She smiled in relief. Then, she was curious about how far Master Xiao could hear people’s thoughts, so she ran up to the second floor and thought to herself.

[Master, are we having a candlelight dinner tonight?]

A few seconds later, Lin Wanli’s phone rang. She picked it up and saw that Huo Jiuxiao had sent her a message, “Yes.”

[Then tonight, we’ll follow my arrangements.]

However, Huo Jiuxiao never told Lin Wanli that he would have a headache if he stayed too long in crowded places. Even a computer couldn’t handle the thousands of voices rushing into one’s head for a long time.

But as long as she wanted to, he would accompany her.

Huamei Design clocked out at 6 pm, and they arrived at Yuebo Hotel at about 6:30 pm. Lin Wanli brought Yan Qiu out after calculating the time and arrived at the booth in the hotel’s Changsheng Hall in advance.

Sitting in a Southeast Asian-style seat, Lin Wanli waited and sipped her tea. Her expression was calm, and there seemed to be a faint smile on her lips. The entire Changsheng Hall had a U-shaped structure. In addition to the main hall in the middle, there were four seats at the bottom of the U-shape. They were separated by lotus ponds and were covered with brown and yellow sheer curtains, so they had better privacy and were perfect for watching shows.

“President Lin, Chairman Yue is here.” Yan Qiu reminded Lin Wanli from behind.

“Go and make the arrangements.”

Yan Qiu went over to receive her, but she found that Madam Yue had brought Lin Xueyi with her.

At the same time, Fu Hongsheng, the silly son of the Yue Family, had also arrived. Probably to surprise his girlfriend, he handed the gift he had prepared to the waiter and asked the waiter to present the gift according to his instructions.

Looking at the size and shape of the gift, Lin Wanli guessed that it was a ring. That showed how much he was infatuated with Nan Xing. When Madam Yue saw that, she almost had a heart attack.

A few minutes later, Tong La and Rui Jing also arrived secretly. In order not to be discovered, the two of them even wore masks and caps. However, when the two of them realized Lin Wanli was so high-profile, they felt they were a little silly.

The booth was not far away. After exchanging glances, everyone ordered their dishes and prepared to watch the show.

At 6:40 pm, a tall, thin, tanned, and scholarly boy appeared in Changsheng Hall. He didn’t use the special booth lane, so when he appeared in Changsheng Hall, he was looking for the booth number.

At that time, Fu Hongsheng was very dissatisfied and said to the waiter, “What’s wrong with that person? My girlfriend will be here soon. Go and clear the scene.”

“Okay, Mr. Fu.”

The waiter walked to the man’s side and said politely, “Sir, are you lost?”

“No, I’m looking for booth COI,” the man said.

“I see. It is the first one on the right.”

The man nodded and glanced at Fu Hongsheng before entering the booth. The waiter returned to Fu Hongsheng’s side and explained, “Mr. Fu, that’s a guest in one of the booths.”

“Doesn’t your hotel check attire? How does someone with that kind of taste get in?” Fu Hongsheng rubbed his nose unhappily as if he had smelled something poor.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Fu. There’s no distinction between noble and humble guests. If you don’t have any other instructions, I’ll go and do my work first.”

“Go ahead. No wonder you can only be a waiter.”

Actually, Fu Hongsheng was not like that in the past. Although he was also profligate, he did not have a clear hierarchy because he felt inferior. However, ever since he got to know Nan Xing, Nan Xing had been praising him lavishly and bewitching him with the ideas of upper-class and lower-class people.

Once a person was praised for too long, it was easy for him to lose himself. Therefore, one could imagine how furious Madam Yue was when she saw that scene.

On the other side, in booth Col, the man was already seated in front of Lin Wanli.

“Wanli, long time no see.”

“Long time no see.” Lin Wanli slowly raised her head and looked at him.

It was only two years, but… the man felt as if a lifetime had passed. Lin Wanli appeared quiet and indifferent. She was no longer as enthusiastic and cheerful as before.

Her eyes were no longer as clear and straightforward as before.

He couldn’t figure out her true motive.

“I know you asked me here to find out some details about what happened in the hotel two years ago. I still see you as Nan Xing’s friend, so I came. If you have any questions, just ask. Nan Xing is an innocent and simple girl. She doesn’t have the guts to hurt you..”
