Chapter 680

eep after just a little rest.Her right arm was stretched across the partition, her small face pressed against her elbow. Her features were exquisitely beautiful; no matter how much she tried to hide t...At the morning meeting, Fu Yan unconsciously looked towards Cao Man's usual seat opposite her. She wasn't there today. Given Manager Duan's style, he would have let Cao Man submit her resignation and she probably wouldn't appear again.

Throughout the day, Cao Man did not appear at the project department.

During the morning meeting, Manager Duan told her that he had confronted Cao Man and asked her to resign from the company today.

Even if she went to HR to process her resignation, she should have come back to the office to collect her belongings. As a result, no one showed up all day.

Cao Man did not take leave nor resign. What exactly does she intend to do

But Fu Yan didn't take it too seriously, after all, Cao Man wouldn't be her colleague anymore. Since everyone was leaving the company, it could be considered a consequence of their actions. She figured she would just let bygones be bygones and wasn't going to stoop to making things worse for her.

So Cao Man's matter is considered closed for her here.

In the evening, Ji Lin suddenly sent her a WeChat message: "Little Yan'er, I have some bad news for you. Huo Mingzheng is also coming to dinner at my place."

Fu Yan slowly typed out a ‘’

Season told me: "My dad asked for Huo Mingzheng's phone number, saying he wanted to thank him for getting a doctor for me. I thought it was just a thank-you call, but he actually invited Huo Mingzheng home for dinner! I only realized he was serious when he took out his treasured old wine."

Fu Yan took her phone, she didn't expect Uncle Ji to actually ask Huo Mingzheng to come home for dinner, and she never thought Huo Mingzheng would agree.

But.

She asked herself, could it be that she truly didn't know why Huo Mingzheng had agreed

Ji Lin sent another message: 【Maybe you shouldn't come. You've eaten at my house before, and everyone knows what Huo Mingzheng is thinking.】

Fu Yan hadn't told Ji Lin that she had moved into the Jinling Mansion. Ji Lin was leaving for Zurich in a few days, and Fu Yan didn't want to distract him with the matter of the person behind the scenes.

Just at that moment, Fu Yan's phone screen flipped, and a call came in. The caller ID showed it was Ji Lin's mother.

"Aunt," she said.

"Little Xiaoyan, it's almost time to get off work, right Come over after work, Auntie specially learned a dish from Guangcheng for you to try and see if it's authentic."

Fu Yan smiled and said, “Then I have to try it.”

After hanging up the phone, she replied to Ji Lin's message: "What are you afraid of"

After packing up her things, she left the office. She vaguely heard her colleagues saying that someone's phone call couldn't get through.

She went downstairs and drove straight to Ji Lin's house.

As they arrived at the Ji family's villa, Fu Yan stopped the car. From the rearview mirror, she saw a black sedan following close behind. The license plate number was striking and domineering; it could only belong to Huo Mingzheng.

Even with Ji Lin's "precautions", the moment she truly saw Huo Mingzheng, she still found it hard to believe.

Except for family gatherings at the Huo family's home, he basically doesn't attend private dinners.

People in the circle all know, so normally no one would invite him. It's not that they don't want to, but they dare not.

Uncle Ji is also bold.

Fu Yan pushed open the car door and got out. Cao Fang just happened to get out of the car at the same time. He nodded slightly to Fu Yan, then turned to open the back door of the car. Huo Mingzheng had already opened the car door before him.

Fu Yan glanced at the remaining light, then turned and walked inside.

"Yan Yan."

The man called out to her.

Fu Yan's footsteps stopped, and Huo Mingzheng instructed Cao Fang to open the trunk and take out the prepared gift.

"There's a share for you too, take it yourself." Huo Mingzheng said to Fu Yan.

The housekeeper from the Qi family stood at the door, smiling and calling out to Miss Fu. The driver from the Qi family was also there. They watched Fu Yan and Huo Mingzheng, so Fu Yan had no choice but to walk back with a stiff face, until she reached the trunk of Huo Mingzheng's car.

Cao Fang handed her a gift box. "Miss Fu, this is yours."

Fu Yan murmured, "What should you get me"y skilled and knows how Huo Mingzheng got hurt""Wasn't it the Chen family who did this Could there be something more to it"That day, I was in the midst of intoxication, and with my own eyes, I saw tha...
