Chapter 255: Other Than Life And Death, Everything Is A Small Matter
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Huo Yutan stayed in Lin Wanli’s office for the whole day. At first, she was worried that someone would come in, but in the end, she understood Lin Wanli’s intentions. In her sad mood, Huo Yu’an could finally feel a trace of warmth from others.
Moreover, she had mocked this bystander countless times and looked down on Lin Wanli from the bottom of her heart.
When Lin Wanli returned to the office, the sky had already turned dark. The employees had already gotten off work. Only the secretary was still at her post, leaving the only light on her desk.
“She hasn’t come out yet?”
The secretary quickly got up and nodded. “She hasn’t eaten or drunk the whole day. There’s no movement either. If I hadn’t seen her go in, I would have suspected that there was no one inside. President Lin, what happened to Miss
Huo?”
“Don’t ask too much about personal matters. You can get off work. Leave this to me.” Lin Wanli instructed her.
The secretary nodded and quickly packed her things before leaving.
Lin Wanli stared at the tightly shut office door and took a deep breath. In the end, she still knocked a few times. After a minute of silence, she pushed the door open and entered. This was her office, but she still treated Huo Yutan with the respect she deserved.
In the office, Huo Yutan was too lazy to turn on the lights or get up.
She thought that Lin Wanli would mock her, but after Lin Wanli entered, she did not turn on the main light. Instead, she turned on the small lamp on her desk.
Huo Yutan had been tense, but when Lin Wanli asked, her throat choked up and her tears boiled. She felt so wronged.
Where else could she go?
The house she shared with that man disgusted her.
“I have a hotel business under me. If you like meditation so much, that place should be very suitable for you.”
After hearing Lin Wanli’s words, Huo Yu’an suddenly raised her head because Lin Wanli always guessed what she was thinking.
“Get up. I’ll send you there.” Lin Wanli remained calm and said, “Unless there’s someone who truly cares about you, you can only digest the emotions of an adult yourself. You should understand this more than anyone else.”
Huo Yu’an stood up and obediently followed Lin Wanli. She then followed her into the car and arrived at the Qiushan Hot Spring Zen Temple.
When she saw the manager, Lin Wanli instructed him, “Prepare some food and send it to this lady’s room. Also, prepare some things to help her sleep. Perhaps she will need them.”
“Okay, President Lin.”
Huo Yu’an’s eyes were red and swollen. She looked at Lin Wanli with a pitiful expression and asked, “Why did you choose to help me instead of hitting me when I’m down?”
“What do you have that is worth me hitting you when you’re down?” Lin Wanli asked her back, “Your acting skills as a villain are a little bad. Don’t act next time.”
“Miss Huo, please follow me.” The manager politely led Huo Yu’an to the room that Lin Wanli had arranged for her.
When the manager returned, Lin Wanli, who was waiting in the lobby, said to the manager, “She has depression. Although we don’t know the extent, we have to prevent her from self-harming.”
“Don’t worry, President Lin.”
Lin Wanli sighed and turned around to leave. No wonder Huo Qingxiao wanted her to be his daughter-in-law. She wasn’t boasting, but she was truly unrivaled in this aspect.
Lin Wanli returned to the car. At this moment, Yan Qiu, who was in the driver’s seat, said, “President Lin, the old lady’s people went to look for the relatives of the deceased girl. They also went to look for the entertainment company’s team. They even went to their own research and development studio to obtain evidence. Tomorrow’s shareholders’ meeting should be very exciting.”
“Being a mantis and an oriole at the same time, she doesn’t mind being tormented and tired.” Lin Wanli commented, “However, this move of hers can indeed turn all the dirty water back on the Ye family’s mother and daughter and restore the Lin Group’s reputation.”
“Don’t we need to tell the Ye family’s mother and daughter in advance?”
“No need.” Lin Wanli said. Even if she said it, what could the mother and daughter change overnight? Why don’t they put on a good show tomorrow?
She continued, “The old lady is putting in so much effort. She probably doesn’t just want to take care of the Ye family. Her final target might be me. Let’s see how she snipes. Let’s go home.”
Yan Qiu nodded and sent Lin Wanli back to Yujing Peak.
When Lin Wanli got out of the car, she happened to bump into Huo Jiuxiao’s car which was parked at the entrance. She turned around and saw Master Xiao stride forward with his long legs. She went up to him.
Some people, even if they were to reveal a part of their face, would still be able to make others feel the pull, like a work of art.
[From the legs to the waist, it’s strong.]
When Huo Jiuxiao got out of the car, he looked at his little sweet wife in amusement because he had read a certain someone’s lustful heart again.
Lin Wanli didn’t avoid his burning expression at all. Instead, she raised her eyebrows. Wasn’t she just bewitched? Wasn’t it just like being addicted to poison? What was so hard to admit?
Huo Jiuxiao picked her up and walked straight into the house, all the way to the bedroom.
As soon as the door closed, Huo Jiuxiao pushed Lin Wanli against the door. Then, he lifted her skirt and kissed her thin lips. Vaguely, he seemed to have tasted chocolate. It was very sweet.
In the darlmess, the two of them were pulling and entangling with each other. The room seemed to have been lit with incense, bringing with it a seductive drug until the two of them fell from the clouds and felt satisfied.
Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. When Huo Jiuxiao came out in his pajamas, Lin Wanli lay on the bed and looked at him.
[Master, please do me a favor.]
It was early in the morning, and the air in the suburbs was exceptionally fresh. However, there were no stars or starlight tonight. There was only the incomplete moon hanging in the sky.
Huo Yu’an asked the front desk for a lot of ice and then soaked herself in the bathtub, trying to numb herself completely. She even wondered if she would feel no pain even if she cut her wrist like this.
“Miss Huo, I’ve prepared some medicine to help you sleep.” The manager Imocked on the door.
Huo Yu’an took a deep breath and pulled back the thought of suicide.
She climbed out of the bathtub stiffly, then wrapped herself in a bathrobe and went to open the door.
Outside the door, the manager smiled and handed her a tray. He said, “Director Lin instructed us to take these sleeping pills to you. There are no side effects. I hope Miss Huo can have a good night’s sleep.”
“What else did President Lin order you to do?” Huo Yu’an asked, wrapping herself up tightly.
“President Lin also said that other than life and death, everything else is trivial.”
Huo Yu’an’s tears fell.
She took the tray from the manager and ate one after returning to her room.
No matter how painful it was, she was not wrong!
The last thing she needed was to blame herself.
As for the rest, she would slowly tidy them up after she woke up.
Huo Yutan was indeed a member of the Huo family, but that didn’t mean that she had to be bullied by a small entertainment company.. If there was no need to talk about kindness, then the person who owed her was Xiao Huaixing!
