Chapter 207: A Bad Premonition

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“President Song, President Huo of the Huo Corporation is looking for Miss Lu. Shall we let him in?”

The receptionist at the front desk kept her eyes on Huo Jinyan as she made the office line call.

Song Qinghe’s voice came from inside. “Bring him in.”

“Understood!”

The receptionist at the front desk hung up, relieved. “President Huo, this way please.”

Then, she carefully brought Huo Jinyan and Chu Ting in.

“Hey, give me your number and add me on WeChat.”

When Huo Jinyan entered, he saw Jiang Zhou pushing his phone to Lu Ning as he spoke.

He frowned slightly as he watched Lu Ning leave her contact details to him and Song Qinghe, before she turned to look at him.

“Teacher Huo, wait a moment.”

Then, she turned around and said something to Song Qinghe; Jiang Zhou looked at Huo Jinyan, raising his eyebrows. He spoke, his voice filled with confusion, “Teacher?”

Huo Jinyan turned to look at him. “You have a problem with that?”

Jiang Zhou grinned obsequiously. “I wouldn’t dare.”

Lu Ning checked her wrist to look at the time, and then stood up.

Lu Jingzhi stood up with Lu Ning.

The few of them had just walked out of the meeting room when Lyu Nanyin came over from a short distance away, headed straight for Lu Ning.

“Boss, where are you going? I’ll go with you!”

Gazing at her, Lu Ning smiled, feeling flattered. “There’s no need for that, just continue working here. Call me if you need anything.”

Wanting to cultivate a relationship with her new boss, Lyu Nanyin dogged her. “I can work on my phone too, and I’m good at my work. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the last boss!”

Jiang Zhou turned to look at Song Qinghe. “So you’re the final obstacle…”

Song Qinghe was speechless. “She means her ex-boss.”

“Ha, ha, ha!”

Lu Ning tugged at Lyu Nanyin. “The company can’t do without you. Besides, I’m still in school, you won’t have anything to do if you follow me around. Work at the company first, I’ll come over and see you when I get the time. Be good now

Lu Nanyin was comforted by her words, and was understanding when she heard that her boss was still in school. “Okay, boss!”

Lu Ning smiled at her with relief. “Good luck! Thanks for your hard work!”

“Don’t mention it!”

When they sent Lu Ning off, Song Qinghe said goodbye to her coolly while Jiang Zhou waved his hand energetically, until the car turned the corner and they could not see them any more.

Lu Ning felt that if Jiang Zhou had met Gu Zi, they would definitely become fast friends. After all, the two of them were equally thick-skinned and shameless.

“Have you settled your business?”

Lu Ning turned towards Huo Jinyan.

Huo Jinyan peered up at her from the project folder in his hand. “Yes.”

Looking at her, he suddenly asked, “He’s your… friend?”

Lu Ning nodded. “Yes, he’s really my friend.”

Huo Jinyan did not dwell on this anymore… It’s just, ifhe was a friend, why did she not even have his contact number?

He lowered his gaze and continued to read the project folder in his hand.

Lu Ning glanced at it curiously.

Then, she silently shifted her gaze to Huo Jinyan’s face.

Someone once said that a man who’s serious at work is really charming.

Huo Jinyan was already very handsome, but while he was working his temperament was different from usual.

As her gaze fell on his eyes, she realized that his eyelashes were rather long; she could not help but reach for her own eyelashes.

Lu Jingzhi peered at his sister, then at Huo Jinyan. He had a bad premonition about this.

Although he could not put his finger on it, he simply wanted the two of them to stay away from each other.

When they arrived at the airport, Lu Ning and Lu Jingzhi checked the time.

“Our flight’s over an hour later.”

Looking at her, Huo Jinyan grabbed her wrist and led her to the registration counter on the other side..
