Chapter 132: The Second Public Prosecution

Chapter 132

The room was spacious as this entire floor was designated for private use rather than for office purposes, resulting in minimal room arrangements, with most of them interconnected.

The fitness room and study were well-equipped. Rong Dai had seen the study in Huo Mansion before, and it had an impressive collection of books.

However, the study was primarily used by Huo Shaoting alone. The rooms of his younger brother and sister-in-law were also quite large. Huo Mansion was expansive, and each person had their own individual room, resembling a small suite, albeit without a kitchen.

It was quiet here, with two rows of bookshelves neatly displaying books. Some of them even had labels, covering topics ranging from finance and business management to historical literature.

"Come over here."

Huo Shaoting led her to the south-facing side of the room.

There was a massive floor-to-ceiling window that was clean and transparent. Soft carpets and cushions were placed here, with two or three open books nearby.

Rong Dai stood beside him, following his gaze as they overlooked the entire Shengjing city.

The feeling was akin to having the world beneath their feet, somewhat reminiscent of when she, as the empress in her past life, ascended the throne and received the court officials' respectful greetings.

This elevated sensation was one that no one would dislike.

"I enjoy sitting here. Just a glance back, and I can see the entire city. It helps me stay alert."

Huo Shaoting spoke, his handsome face exuding a resolute expression, devoid of the cold and serious facade he showed to others. He had softened considerably.

"Everyone aspires to be at the top, but only a few truly comprehend the hardship that comes with it."

Rong Dai looked at the towering skyscrapers that appeared minuscule from down below, and the spacious bustling streets that seemed like mere lines, and couldn't help but sigh.

"When we're together, we won't succumb to the coldness at the top."

He held her hand and slightly tilted his head, gazing at her cheek.

After sensing her transformation, he reevaluated his own heart.

He had asked himself if he could compromise for the sake of his family's peace of mind, even if marriage wasn't a necessity for him.

Before he met Rong Dai, he could have done it.

After trailing behind the CEO for ten years, he finally had a nine-to-five job.

"Madam, would you like some tea? The CEO's meeting will be over in half an hour," Zhang Assistant eagerly brought the tea, and his smiling face resembled a blooming chrysanthemum.

Rong Dai smiled lightly and nodded, "Thank you, I'm not in a hurry."

She managed her time well now, and completing the Bai Shou Tu quilt was not a difficult task for her; she could finish it in two months.

Moreover, she had learned a lot about acting from Jiang Ling, and she was doing a great job with the tasks assigned by Jiang Ling.

Her younger brother-in-law also kindly analyzed the entire play for her, and she compiled a set of information on designing the costumes for the new drama.

There were few things that Jiang Ling could teach her now; acting required practical experience, and no amount of talking could compare to firsthand experience.

So these days, she followed Jiang Ling around various drama crews in Shengjing, watching plays and listening to operas, significantly reducing her learning time.

But even so, she insisted on recording her insights every day, which was extremely helpful for her.

"Today's meeting is for the purpose of kicking out those bloodsucking troublemakers. It might take a bit longer," Zhang Assistant explained earnestly, despite Rong Dai's words.

After all, now that the madam's relationship with the CEO had improved, his own life would be easier.

Rong Dai nodded; Huo Shao Ting had already informed her about the company's affairs. Regarding matters related to her and the Huo family, he had no reason to hide anything.

"In addition, Wen Corporation has gone bankrupt. The authoritative institution that provided the appraisal report for Miss Wen Shi Lan will be exposed for corruption, bribery, and abuse of power. The appraisal report for Miss Wen will be invalidated and face a second public prosecution," Zhang Assistant pondered for a few seconds and couldn't help but disclose the inside information to her.

Having been by the side of the CEO for so many years, he had a good understanding of his thoughts. If the CEO didn't care about his wife, he wouldn't have gone through such great lengths.

As long as it could promote the relationship between the wife and the CEO, his "betrayal" wouldn't be a big deal. After all, it was the wife.

Rong Dai was taken aback. She had never heard Huo Shaoting mention this matter before.

"In fact, the CEO had already planned these things beforehand. Although the methods were a bit ruthless, the business world is like a battlefield. The Wen family has been relying on a little bit of favor from back then to poach quite a few people from the Huo family."

"If they hadn't hurt the wife this time, the CEO wouldn't have been so furious. That appraisal report was indeed fabricated by people from the Wen family, and the authoritative institutions and relevant inspectors were indeed involved in corruption and bribery."

"In order to thoroughly investigate these matters and set up this trap for Wen Corporation, the CEO only rested for a maximum of four hours each day."

Zhang Assistant continued to explain. He knew that the CEO wouldn't talk about these matters himself, but revealing them would benefit the relationship between the CEO and his wife.
