Gu Qingcheng stopped in her tracks.
Li Jing saw it and hurried over to her.
“I know you and Huo Sicheng are sworn enemies,” she reminded Gu Qingcheng. “The Peach Lotus Cup is about to be held. Without the Huo Corporation’s investment, the students’ emotions will be affected if they don’t get their bonuses. If we lose the competition, it’ll only make things worse for Royal
Dance.”
Before Gu Qingcheng could say anything, she continued, “The original investors of Royal Dance withdrew their funds when the Peach Lotus Cup was about to start. On the day of the Peach Lotus Cup competition, according to the rules, Royal Dance will participate in the competition under the Huo
Corporation’s name. If you want to ruin it desperately, it’ll only be because we don’t have any investors to participate in the competition.
“Students value bonuses very much. A large sum of money and endorsements are the basis for their hard work for so many years. Once we don’t have a title sponsorship, we will lose a lot of momentum. Not to mention that Gu Mei is a mentor. She will definitely make things difficult for our students.”
“I know what you’re saying.” Gu Qingcheng looked at Li Jing. “Before you called me, I was going to Huo Corporation.”
Li Jing was stunned. “Then why take the contract? Why don’t you just sign your name here?”
The corners of Gu Qingcheng’s mouth twitched. After a while, she said, “I’ll be going to Huo Corporation.”
Hunt Corporation.
Gu Qingcheng went straight to the top floor.
However, Huo Sicheng was not in the office. She took out her phone and was about to call him.
“Madam, why are you here?” Chu Yu saw Gu Qingcheng and spoke first. “What’s the matter?”
Before Gu Qingcheng could make the call, she looked at Chu Yu and asked, “Where’s Huo Sicheng?”
“Meeting.” Chu Yu walked to his desk and took out a document. “Madam, you can wait for a moment. The meeting is almost over.”
Gu Qingcheng thought for a moment and sat down.
“I’ll get you a cup of coffee.” After Chu Yu poured the coffee, he glanced at the documents on the table. “Madam, President Huo is doing this for Madam’s sake. This investment project will not harm Royal Dance Baili at all. You can just sign it directly. There’s no need to come here.”
Gu Qingcheng picked up her coffee and took a sip, then said casually, “I don’t believe that a pie will fall from the sky.”
“You and President Huo are husband and wife,” Chu Yu explained. “It’s only right and proper that he helps you.”
“Really?” Gu Qingcheng looked into Chu Yu’s eyes. “I believe you’ve seen the trending searches today. In the end, there’s this sky-high investment. What do you think?”
Chu Yu knew that Gu Qingcheng was trending.
Perhaps it was because he had seen it too many times, but he was neither intrigued nor angry when he saw the trending searches.
However, he didn’t dare to say anything that didn’t suit Gu Qingcheng’s violent personality. She could slap him if she didn’t like what he said.
“I’ll handle this proposal, President Huo…” At this moment, Ji Sisi’s sweet voice sounded.
As Gu Qingcheng waited for Chu Yu to give his opinion, the office door opened. Ji Sisi’s voice made her heart ache.
Normally, she wouldn’t be able to sit still and would go up to him and slap him in the face.
It was just that she was trending today, and she had agreed to let Ji Sisi stay by Huo Sicheng’s side. If she were to get jealous and argue with him, she would appear narrow-minded and be slapping herself instead.
Ji Sisi didn’t enter the office. Instead, she stopped at the door. When she saw Gu Qingcheng, her expression froze, and she turned to leave.
Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng, his eyes dark and deep, but there was a flash of joy in them.
“President Huo, I’m very sorry that the documents weren’t sent over.” Chu Yu’s eyes lit up when he saw Huo Sicheng. “Madam suddenly came. I went to get her coffee.’
Huo Sicheng gestured for Chu Yu to leave.
“How long have you been here?” He walked up to Gu Qingcheng and said softly,
“Why didn’t you tell me in advance?”
“If I tell you in advance, wouldn’t I be disturbing you and Ji Sisi?” Gu Qingcheng put on a fake smile and added, “Of course, I have no right to criticize you. I was having dinner with Qi Shaoze yesterday, and today’s trending searches are true.”
Huo Sicheng’s eyes darkened as he picked up the document in front of him.
“Why aren’t you signing it?”
“Why are you so calm?” Gu Qingcheng asked Huo Sicheng, and she said in a serious tone, “I had a candlelit dinner with Qi Shaoze last night. Aren’t you going to say anything?”
When she saw him with Ji Sisi, her heart ached.
When she thought about how Mr. Zhao had said that he had cut off his intimacy with Huo Xuan’s mother because of her, her heart felt as if a knife was stabbing it.
However, he had been very calm ever since he appeared in her line of sight. He seemed to be completely unbothered that she was on the trending searches.
Was she sure that Mr. Zhao was telling her the truth? Was she really just a
trophy for him to collect?
If that was the case, it could indeed explain why Huo Sicheng wanted to divorce her but didn’t.
As long as he didn’t get a divorce, he could show off her spoils of war to the world for the rest of his life.
The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she became.
Huo Sicheng’s face was calm, but the vinegar jar in his chest had already flipped countless times.
He had endured it for the whole morning, thinking that he could temporarily forget the bitterness in his heart as long as he was busy enough.
However, at this moment, he looked at her and thought of the trending searches today. The jealousy in his chest surged like a huge wave.
He asked her patiently, “What do you think I should show?”
“Anger? Curse me for betraying you?” Gu Qingcheng shrugged. “Or should I leave? Or maybe we can fight?”
“Do you think I can do what you said?” Think about it,” Huo Sicheng retorted.
“Have I ever done anything like this to you?”
“Why haven’t you done it before?” Gu Qingcheng brought up the last time they had fought. “You hit me so hard that my butt hurt. You yelled at me. On the night of our engagement, you even called me a lunatic…”
She rambled on and on to Huo Sicheng.
In fact, she knew that she wanted him to scold her and get angry at her.
It wasn’t that she was masochistic, but his emotional fluctuations meant that he had her in his heart and cared about her.
However she had said a lot, but Huo Sicheng’s emotions did not change. He still stared at her calmly, and she could not see any emotion in his deep irises.
Only by caring and caring could she be affected by the other party’s every move. She was affected by Huo Sicheng’s emotions. Because of jealousy, she would feel pain, anger, sadness, and love.
He had nothing to do with her.
The only time was when he hit her butt.
Mr. Zhao’s words were like a knife that sliced into her heart. Even though she was bleeding, it couldn’t hide the fact that Huo Sicheng only had Huo Xuan’s mother in his heart.
She found it a little funny. It was meaningless to make a scene because she was jealous of Ji Sisi.
Ji Sisi was just a spice in Huo Sicheng’s life, just like Gu Qingcheng.
Neither of them could compare to the woman Huo Sicheng truly loved.
“From what you’ve said, I did go overboard in the past.” Huo Sicheng looked at Gu Qingcheng calmly. His voice had a hint of emotion. “I won’t do the things I did to you. You can be at ease and be Mrs. Huo.”
“Huo Sicheng, let me ask you.” Gu Oingcheng smiled. Her smile was exceptionally bright, and her beautiful face shone with charm.. “Do you like me?”
