Chapter Thirty-Five: A Woman with Personality

  Late at night.

  Dazzling neon lights have begun to flicker, casting a beam of light on this desolate city, adding a touch of warmth.

  She is indeed a woman with her own personality! Let him, Huo Yize, wait... She was the first one! This woman seems to be used to making him break his rules? His fingertips held a cigar, and amidst the swirling smoke, a hint of coldness seeped out. However, he didn't show any anger or annoyance, his face was exceptionally calm. The depths of his eyes couldn't reveal what he was thinking, but the corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile.

  What trick did she want to play in front of him? He would accompany her to the end! And more and more, Huo Yize felt that this game was interesting...

  "Hey... you're still at the company? Rarely seen!"

  At this time, the originally quiet space was suddenly broken by a voice, and the words were filled with intense surprise! Ding Haowei also approached him incredulously, somewhat disbelieving his own eyes.

  Of course, Ding Haowei was not intentionally teasing him, he simply came back to pick up his fallen phone and left, only to find that Huo Yize's office was brightly lit.

  Huo Yize seemed dissatisfied with the interruption, his eyes deepened a bit, and he glanced at him casually, seemingly not intending to speak...

  "What's wrong? You seem unhappy. Did you have a fight with Miss Yin? Or... is it because of Tong Mai? Although Ding Haoxue didn't know what exactly happened between him and Tong Mai, his intuition told him that their relationship must be extraordinary, otherwise, how could Huo Yize be so furious as to 'drive her out' and make things difficult for her?"

  "Mind your own business." The tone wasn't quite right, and he continued to puff out smoke rings. In the ashtray, cigarette butts of varying lengths were scattered about, some more, some less, revealing his irritation.

  "Huo Xiao, why smoke and look for trouble here? Let's go have a drink instead. When we're drunk, everything will be fine." Ding Haoxuan was used to hanging out in pubs, drinking, and flirting. Perhaps this was the common nature of rich kids, one of their favorite forms of entertainment.

  Huo Yize raised an eyebrow, his expression clearly showing that he wasn't very interested. After a brief pause, he said calmly, "No, some other time. I'm going home!"

  As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the luxurious suit on the back of the chair and walked out of the office with a straight posture. His tall and handsome figure stood out from the crowd, making anyone standing next to him feel inferior...

  Ding Haowei seemed unwilling to let him go like this, and stepped forward. "I'm saying, Mr. Huo, about the vacant secretary position... why not let Miss Tong come back? Her resume is good, just let her try for a month. You're treating a young woman like this, it's not very manly. Letting her be unable to find work doesn't benefit us either."

  Tong Mai was looking for a job during this period, and in fact, Ding Hao Wei had been paying attention to her. She was indeed very down on her luck, every day running around interviewing at many companies, and each time the result was being ruthlessly rejected! Did she know? As long as Ho Yi Ze spoke up, there wasn't a single company that dared not to buy his account!

  Ding Hao's words successfully attracted Huo Yize's footsteps, turned around, looked back, and stared at him. The series of movements was so elegant, but his eyes now had an extremely sharp gaze, with a scrutinizing expression staring at him. When did he care about Tong Mai so much? This point, inexplicably made Huo Yize feel uncomfortable in his heart.

  "Why are you looking at me like that? I'm telling the truth! It's better for me to find a secretary for you every day!"

  Ding Haowei's words were followed by a supplementary sentence, and Huo Yize relaxed slightly.

  "This matter... you don't need to worry about it! Continue to find a secretary for me, if within three days, there isn't a qualified secretary appearing in front of me, then you can pack your bags and go home too."

  He didn't say anything, but as soon as he did, it involuntarily accelerated his decision. Originally, he was still hesitant about whether to use her or not. However, at this moment, he had made up his mind and would absolutely not let Tong Mai enter the company.

  She was originally a hot potato for him, and bringing her in would be equivalent to finding trouble for himself.

  Ding Haowei felt even more that he shouldn't have interfered in other people's business today. If he hadn't brought it up, Huo Yize wouldn't have pressured him so much. Now, he had dragged himself into the mess...

  Tong Mai, Tong Mai, angel, angel...

  These two names kept hovering in Huo Yize's mind, her charm, her pride, her youth, her innocence... All the images kept overlapping, repeatedly appearing. Even if he didn't think of her, she was like a piece of sticky candy, tightly attached to his body, following him everywhere!

  There was also a beautiful tactile sensation of touching her, bit by bit, gathering together, thoroughly disturbing his heart...
