Huo Qingxiao was about to speak when Huo Jiuxiao’s voice came from outside the door. “Lin Wanli, come out.”

Lin Wanli turned around and looked at the door. Then, she looked at Huo Qingxiao and said, “Old Master, you’ve caused me a lot of trouble.”

“Go ahead,” Huo Qingxiao pointed at the door with his chin.

Lin Wanli seemed hesitant. After taking a deep breath, she walked out of the quarantine area, took off her sterile suit and gas mask, and followed Huo Jiuxiao to his temporary lounge.

When Lin Wanli was brought over by the Huo family, she was still wearing a dress. Huo Jiuxiao turned around and looked at Lin Wanli’s slightly swollen legs. Then, he took a step forward and reached out to pull her into his arms. He took a long breath, like a fish that had been stranded on the shore for a long time. It was only at this moment that he finally regained the freedom to breathe.

The laboratory equipment was advanced, but the living environment was not good. Therefore, after Huo Jiuxiao arrived, he only did a simple wash-up.

[Huo Jiuxiao, it hurts.]

Lin Wanli felt wronged in her heart.

Huo Jiuxiao let go of his hand and hooked it around the back of her neck. Then, he kissed her with longing and possessiveness, crazily sweeping across her thin lips and the inner wall of her mouth.

Lin Wanli couldn’t suppress the desire in her heart. She reached into Huo Jiuxiao’s shirt with both hands, but at this moment, Huo Jiuxiao stopped and frowned as he looked at the door of the lounge.

Lin Wanli leaned into his embrace. Her brain was deprived of oxygen for a few seconds. After she adjusted her breathing, she closed her eyes and reminded herself that now was not the time to indulge.

[Is there someone outside?]

“A smart woman should know that the Huo family is not a good place.” Huo Jiuxiao kissed Lin Wanli’s black hair as he spoke.

“I’m just a small fry, Master Xiao. I have no intention of getting involved in the Huo family’s grudges. I have no choice. Please be magnanimous.”

Lin Wanli reached out to touch Huo Jiuxiao’s body. She actually wanted to know if he was injured anywhere.

Huo Jiuxiao carried her horizontally and walked to the simple single bed. After sitting down, he changed into an extremely comfortable hugging position.

[I miss you so much.]

Huo Jiuxiao hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear, “Act this scene well. I’ll give vou a wedding of the centurv.”

On the other side, in the quarantine zone.

Huo Qingxiao’s men overheard a few words and returned to Huo Qingxiao’s side to tell him that it was exactly as he had imagined. Huo Jiuxiao wouldn’t give in so easily, and Lin Wanli didn’t want to get involved in the Huo family’s grudges.

“Chairman, I’m afraid this matter is not easy to handle. Why don’t we let them do what they want?”

Huo Qingxiao looked at his assistant meaningfully.

“We still have to see Lin Wanli’s ability to convince Jiuxiao. The most important thing is whether she wants it or not and whether she dares to do it.”

The assistant did not understand. How could Lin Wanli be so capable?

Only Huo Qingxiao knew that when a woman wanted to get a man regardless of the consequences, she would be a lethal weapon.

A moment later, Lin Wanli returned to Huo Qingxiao and asked him to send her off.

“The Huo Group has such a huge family business and is the world’s leading pharmaceutical company. Aren’t you tempted?”

Lin Wanli looked into Huo Qingxiao’s eyes. She did not hide her ambition. She replied, “I’m tempted. Only by standing at the top can I get what I want and protect what I cherish. However, the price is too high.”

“Little girl, don’t belittle yourself. I’ve been observing you for a long time. As a smart person, cough cough… You should know how many benefits there are to marrying Huo Jiuxiao. This is an opportunity that others can’t even dream of. Are you sure you want to reject it so easily?”

“Marry Huo Jiuxiao, cough… One percent of the Huo Group’s shares will be in your hands. And the shares in your hand will increase proportionately to the amount of time you stay by Huo Jiuxiao’s side. I promised him that after three years, he would be free to marry, but whether you can keep him or not depends on your own ability.”

“Lin Wanli, if it wasn’t you, it would have been someone else.”

Lin Wanli remained silent. After a while, she asked Huo Qingxiao, “What’s your motive for asking me to marry Master Xiao? In other words, what do you want from me?”

“No matter when and where, stand by his side unconditionally. Always be on his side and protect all his interests. Even if he has an illegitimate child outside, you have to take care of the child as your own child.”

Lin Wanli frowned and smiled. “It’s too difficult. I would be using myself to bet on this.”

This time, Huo Qingxiao coughed for a while. His phlegm was already bloodshot, but he still persisted. He said to Lin Wanli, “If it’s not difficult, I can just have any woman marry him. Why would I need you?”

“Chairman, stop talking! Rest is more important, doctor!” The assistant panicked. Even if it was an act, it was still a real crisis.

“Think about it again and give me an answer.”

“Since you want me to consider, you should at least prepare a place for me to rest, right? Also, prepare something else…”

Huo Yu’an went back to Jinzhou and asked her friends in the fashion industry to organize a party. She invited a few small celebrities to her house for dinner. Among them was Wen Lan’s sworn enemy, Wen Xin. In terms of strength, Wen Xin was the most outstanding. She was a professional and clean person. She was done-to-earth and did every work diligently. It was indeed not easy to get to where she was now.

However, Wen Lan’s sudden appearance had robbed Wen Xin of many resources. Coupled with resources, Wen Lan, who was a half-baked actress and did not stand out in any way, was now above Wen Xin.

And this so-called resource was Xiao Huaixing.

They were wearing silk pajamas and lying on the dark red sofa. Huo Yu’an held a glass of red wine and looked at Wen Xin. She said, “You said that there was a period drama with great potential that the production team wanted you to act in. However, because of Wen Lan’s interference, the investors withdrew their funds. How much money do you still need?”

Wen Xin wiped her red lips and smiled coldly. She replied, “They withdrew 100 million.”

‘What if I say that I’m willing to pay 100 million? Is 100 million enough? If the team is not bad, I can add more.”

“You’re joking, Miss Huo.” Wen Xin sobered up.

“From what you said tonight, Wen Lan stole quite a bit from you. Since that’s the case, I’ll use Xiao Huaixing’s money to compensate you. I haven’t introduced myself yet, right? I’m Xiao Huaixing’s wife.” Huo Yutan laughed.

When Wen Xin heard the relationship between Huo Yu’an and Xiao Huaixing, she was shocked for a while.

Then, she finally said, “Isn’t that President Xiao and Wen Lan… The paparazzi will take photos of the two of them every year. The industry has long tacitly agreed to their relationship. How could it be…”

“So, I’ll invest money for you. You just need to arrange for reliable people to help me collect information on those two people.. How about that?”
