The incandescent lamps in the parking lot gave off a pale light, illuminating the surrounding area.
Huo Guanchen felt it was very dazzling.
Looking back, he walked out of the parking lot with Zhang Baochen expressionlessly and came to the small private room agreed with Guo Huining.
This is also a private room facing the water and by the window.
Guo Huining sat alone inside, looking a little haggard, staring blankly at the small lake outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking.
The waiter who led them in knocked on the door and said with a smile: "Miss Guo, your friend has arrived."
Guo Huining turned around suddenly and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Huo Guanchen coming.
"You two are here, please take a seat." Guo Huining greeted warmly and asked the waiter to serve the food quickly.
Huo Guanchen sat down opposite her and said calmly: "I've already eaten. Just give me a cup of tea."
Zhang Baochen happily sat down next to Huo Guanchen and said with a smile: "I was thinking about the dinner Miss Guo invited me, and I didn't even eat a bite at home!"
Huo Guanchen: "..."
He frowned slightly and said softly: "Baochen, are you okay?"
"Second brother, you are a full man and don't know a hungry man is hungry. Ever since we left the Huo family mansion, we have not dared to eat outside. Who knows who we will offend one day, and even the last work will be gone?"
Zhang Baochen spoke very frankly, not caring about face issues at all.
Guo Huining knew a little about the Zhang family's situation and didn't take it to heart.
Her purpose was just to establish a relationship with Huo Guanchen through Zhang Baochen, including treating Mr. Huo's illness. Her ultimate goal was Huo Guanchen.
He held a high position and was Huo Shaoheng's biological father and Gu Nianzhi's future father-in-law.
If Gu Nianzhi wanted to enter the Huo family, it was impossible not to value Huo Guanchen.
Guo Huining heard Dou Aiyan say that Huo Guanchen was actually dissatisfied with Gu Nianzhi, his daughter-in-law, and despised her as being from an ordinary family. It was just that Huo Shaoheng really liked her, so he had no objection.
Guo Huining couldn't help curling his lips in disdain.
She was not optimistic about the prospects of Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng at all.
So what if you're engaged
She had been engaged to Hong Ziqi for so many years, but they still kicked her out...
Thinking of Hong Ziqi, he couldn't help but think of the dispute with the Hong Group, which made Guo Huining even more troubled.
She waved to the waiter to come in and give Huo Guanchen a cup of tea.
After the dishes were served, Guo Huining asked the waiter to close the door when he went out, then raised his glass and said to Zhang Baochen and Huo Guanchen, "I am very grateful that you two can enjoy the meal today."
She got the news in the afternoon and decided to invite Huo Guanchen and Zhang Baochen to have dinner here.
This time was specially chosen.
I have to say that the time she chose was too coincidental...
Huo Guanchen is a busy man, and he will basically not go to such a last-minute invitation.
But Guo Huining's case is special.
The doctor she hired cured Mr. Huo, so Huo Guanchen must give her this face and help her.
He raised his tea cup and said calmly: "Is it because Miss Guo invited us to dinner today to apologize to Gu Nianzhi?"
More than a month ago, Guo Huining said that because he had offended Gu Nianzhi, he wanted to invite them to dinner and would personally apologize to Gu Nianzhi during the dinner.
Huo Guanchen agreed to her, but after waiting for a month, he didn't even wait for the dinner.
Guo Huining finally couldn't sit still today, right
Guo Huining became even more embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, he said: "... That's it. The incident with Miss Gu has passed, and there is no need to mention it again in the future."
"Oh? Did she accept your apology? Tsk tsk, the sun really came out in the west and she changed her gender..." Zhang Baochen took a bite of the food and couldn't help but shake his head.
Guo Huining didn't want to mention this matter, so he coughed lightly, looked at Huo Guanchen, and said softly in the most tactful tone and the most beautiful voice: "Admiral Huo, I really have no choice but to have no other choice, so I want to ask you to help me." busy."
"What's the favor?" Huo Guanchen put down his tea cup, "As long as it doesn't break the law or violate our discipline, I will help you if I can."
It's just a favor. As for adding so many attributives in front of it
Guo Huining lowered his eyes, twirling a snow-white napkin uneasily with his fingers, thought for a while, and said, "That's it. Because of my quarrel with Miss Gu, the Hong family is at odds with me."
"And because of the different business philosophies between me and the older generation of the Hong family, something went wrong in the business."
"It's a long story. In short, the old lady of the Hong family not only canceled my engagement with her great-grandson, but also... she also wanted... me to compensate for the losses, or else she would go to court to sue me!"
She cried as she spoke, feeling very aggrieved.
Zhang Baochen looked at her in surprise, even forgetting to eat the food, and said hurriedly: "Have you not been engaged to Hong Ziqi for several years?!"
"... It's been seven or eight years." Guo Huining smiled bitterly, "I'm over thirty... I spent my entire youth with the Hong Group and Hong Ziqi. Now they let me go when they say they want me to leave, and they kick me out. No mercy…”
She talked about her sad things and her eyes were red.
There was no need to disguise this kind of discomfort. She was really heartbroken and couldn't control her emotions.
Huo Guanchen and Zhang Baochen looked at each other a little unbearably.
"... What Miss Guo means is that she wants us to help go to the Hong family to intercede?" Huo Guanchen pondered for a while and couldn't figure out what Guo Huining meant.
"But we are not familiar with the Hong family, so I'm afraid we can't help." Zhang Baochen spread his hands helplessly, too embarrassed to continue eating.
Guo Huining hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile through his tears: "Of course not. You and the Hong family are indeed strangers. How could I ask you to intercede for me?"
As she said that, she raised her eyes to look at Huo Guanchen, then quickly lowered her eyes and said, "I have nothing now. I was kicked out by the Hong family. I can't find a new job and have nowhere to go."
"The Hong family has taken back the house and stocks. Now I am homeless and have to stay in a hotel."
"My family is not in this city. The only friends I know well here are the Hong family. Now that I have fallen out with them, I can't even find a job..."
She murmured: "I want to ask you two if you can help me find a job... I don't have to choose, and it's not expensive. It only includes food and accommodation. I can be a personal legal consultant or assistant."
Zhang Baochen frowned and said in embarrassment: "But I can't even protect myself. I have been out of work for a long time."
As he said that, he looked at Huo Guanchen and said cautiously: "Second brother, how about you help her? Miss Guo is also a top student who graduated from the law department of University B. She is just your personal assistant and takes care of your personal affairs. It shouldn’t be difficult, right?”
Huo Guanchen pondered for a long time, thinking that because of his high position, he couldn't have a personal assistant at all.
His personal affairs are taken care of by a dedicated life secretary.
But Guo Huining was really pitiful, and it was indeed caused by a conflict with Gu Nianzhi. He also found someone to help him cure his father, so he had to return this favor.
He thought about it and said, "I can't have a personal assistant, but my father needs someone to help him with trivial matters. If Miss Guo doesn't mind, she can be my father's assistant for a while. I can wait until I find a job later." Not too late."
Guo Huining's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Really?! Great! Thank you, Admiral Huo! I will take good care of Mr. Huo!"
"You don't need to take care of it yourself." Huo Guanchen smiled, thinking that Miss Guo is really naive...
"I hired some people for the old man to take care of him, including rehabilitation doctors and nurses, nannies and chefs, as well as gardeners and hourly workers. You can help me take care of these people. I will trouble you when I am not at home."
