Chapter 541: 541, husband you’re the best!
“That won’t do. You’ve helped me a lot, and I’m starving. Besides, I can have meatballs at home anytime. Why don’t … 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.”
“Really, you don’t have to.”
“Don’t be polite. You’ve been interning here for so long, and we have never had a meal together. Let’s go, let’s go.”
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 didn’t 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, “I’m sorry, my husband is here to pick me up, I have to go.”
Huang Gangsheng glanced at the luxury car, “Is this your husband’s car?”
Su Wanwan nodded.
The look on Huang Gangsheng’s face changed instantly, “Alright, you should go.”
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, “Why didn’t you give me a heads up that you were coming to pick me up?”
Huo Jingshen narrowed his eyes, his face solemn, “My car has been parked here for half a day, and you were only interested in laughing with another man? If I didn’t honk, were you planning on going with him?”
Su Wanwan was taken aback, “I didn’t see, okay? You should have texted me.”
Huo Jingshen’s face tightened, “Who was that man?”
“A colleague.” After Su Wanwan finished speaking, she immediately added, “He 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?”
Huo Jingshen’s tone softened slightly, “Haven’t you had your dinner yet?”
“Not yet, I’m starving.” Su Wanwan unbuttoned and removed her coat, throwing it back.
“Do you have to work overtime again tomorrow?”
Su Wanwan quickly reassured him, “No, no, I don’t need to go back until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I have several days off!”
Presuming that he would be pleased by this, Huo Jingshen, however, glanced at her indifferently, “As an intern, you are busier than me, the CEO.”
Rolling her eyes, Su Wanwan retorted, “You are the CEO. You can choose not to work whenever you want. What about your employees below? If you order them to work overtime, don’t they have to slave away in the office?”
“They voluntarily chose to work overtime,” Huo Jingshen said calmly, “because they can earn three times their normal wages during the holidays.”
Su Wanwan: “….”
Alright then.
You’re the capitalist, so you must be right.
Her phone suddenly rang, Su Wanwan glanced at it and immediately picked it up, “Hello?”
“Wanwan, it’s me.”
“What’s up?” 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?
“Wanwan, didn’t you know? Uncle has been promoted to the district head.”
Hearing this news, Su Wanwan felt no emotion, if anything, she almost chuckled, “Is that right? Then, congratulations to him.”
“What kind of reaction is that? Your father got promoted. You should be happy for him.”
“Oh, anything else?”
“We sisters haven’t seen each other in a long time, right? It’s the New Year holidays now, don’t you plan to go home and visit? Grandfather and Uncle, they both miss you, you know.”
Qiao Zixin’s endless chatter was getting on Su Wanwan’s nerves, “I already asked Yang Aunt, my grandfather’s health is fine.”
Indeed, she hadn’t been home in a while. Usually, she would call Yang Aunt once in a while to ask about Su Xueqin’s 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 doesn’t care about his elder daughter.
“Regardless, we are still a family, and families don’t hold grudges overnight. Wanwan, what happened before was Yanyan’s fault, but your grandfather and uncle have already punished her…”
“Alright, that’s enough, I have things to do. I’ll hang up now.”
After that, Su Wanwan immediately hung up.
So annoying, my good mood is completely ruined.
“Whose call was it?” Huo Jingshen asked.
“My cousin.”
Qiao Zixin?
Huo Jingshen raised his eyebrows slightly, “A few days ago, I had someone look into that club.”
“What club? Look into what?” Su Wanwan looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.
“The night you were drugged, your cousin was also at that club.”
“…” Su Wanwan opened her mouth wide in surprise.
After a long while, she asked,”So you suspect my cousin drugged me? Why?”
Huo Jingshen, his long, bony fingers gripping the steering wheel, his face focused, his eyes slightly narrowed, “Be careful around her in the future.”
Su Wanwan quickly nodded.
Her relationship with Qiao Zixin wasn’t really good.
But all along, aside from sending a dog after her when they were kids, Qiao Zixin hadn’t 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 hadn’t rushed over in time…
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 Wanwan’s mind was in a whirl, “Holy crap, did my cousin fall in love with you?”
Huo Jingshen glanced at her sideways without denying it.
Su Wanwan: “…”
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 it’s 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, “Husband, don’t worry, I’ll protect your chastity, I won’t let my cousin defile and take advantage of you!”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
It was the first time in 30 years he had a woman tell him she would protect his…chastity. And the woman was a girl 10 years younger than him.
Huo Jingshen couldn’t quite describe the odd feeling in his heart, especially when he looked at Su Wanwan’s serious little face. He couldn’t help but find it funny. Seeing a red light at the intersection ahead, he stopped the car and squeezed her soft cheek.
“Baby, take care of yourself first.”
“I’m serious!” Su Wanwan looked at his elegant and handsome face, “Of course, you also need to protect yourself, because if you get touch by other women, I will not want you!”
“I remember you were hugged by Ye Qitian.” Huo Jingshen squinted, his handsome figure dangerous and sexy, “Before you ask me, shouldn’t you set an example first?”
Su Wanwan coughed twice.
Damn it, when did that happen?
He still remembers?
He’s a big jealous pot!
“Alright, alright, it’s green light, let’s go. I want to eat the beef noodles you make.” Su Wanwan stroked him along the grain.
Huo Jingshen slowly took his eyes back, “Alright, the husband will make some noodles for you when we get home.”
Su Wanwan: “…..”
This…
The old driver is pushing the accelerator!
Whatever.
I’m at fault, let him take advantage of the words a bit. After all, these days I’ve been busy with the internship, getting up early and returning late, I really have been neglecting him.
…
When they were almost home, Su Wanwan suddenly thought of something, “I don’t need to go to the TV station tomorrow, can you go to the hospital with me in the morning?”
“For what?”
“President Xiao is sick, as a friend we should visit him, right?”
Huo Jingshen scoffed at her mockingly, “Maybe he doesn’t consider you a friend.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Damn it!
Does he have to… hit the nail on the head like this?
Su Wanwan justified her position, “If others don’t understand, that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t! Weiyi is my best girlfriend, her husband is so ill, as her friend, we should go to the hospital. Plus, I’m on vacation right now. Of course, if you don’t want to, I’ll go alone.”
Huo Jingshen’s jaw tightened slightly.
A moment later, he spoke coldly, “Did I say I didn’t want to?”
Su Wanwan immediately scooted over and hugged his arm, “You’re the best, husband!”
