Chapter 30: Broken Appointment?

Rong Mansion is the residence of Charlie, the ambassador of the Hidden State Office in China during the Republic of China and the Duke of Yingguo.

Charlie gave himself a Chinese name called "Ronghua", so the mansion was named "Rong Mansion".

This is a typical English manor house style building.

The baroque European-style promenade has a large green lawn growing in front of the courtyard, and a European-style pool fountain in the center.

The bonsai vegetation that can be seen everywhere is decorated with warm yellow lights.

Not far away, a symphony orchestra plays gentle and elegant music.

Waiters in black and white tuxedos shuttled through the crowd, looking around, all of them were scenes of fragrant clothes and sideburns.

Zhou Niannian had never seen this kind of scene.

Holding Huo Ting's hand and walking over, he couldn't help but look around.

Huo Ting lowered his head and whispered to her, threatening her,

"If you look around like this, I'll push you into the fountain pool in front of you."

Hearing this, Zhou Niannian didn't dare to move again.

Tighten your back and don't squint, and make vases with peace of mind.

"That's good"

Huo Ting hooked the corners of his lips.

The man in front of him raised his glass and stopped,

"Mr. Cheng, come alone today?"

Cheng Fei and Huo Ting have always been good friends, and when he saw him with a female companion by his side, he quipped,

"Naturally, I don't have Mr. Huo so glamorous......"

"Mr. Cheng is raised, the secretary is only"

He said to Zhou Niannian again,

"Don't you want to say hello to Mr. Cheng?"

Zhou Niannian bowed slightly,

"Cheng is always good"

Cheng Fei is a person who spends his days drinking and sleeping in the willows.

Hearing that Zhou Niannian was just Huo Ting's secretary, he was a little more interested.

"With Miss Zhou's talent, wouldn't it be a pity to only be a secretary......"

Zhou Niannian heard the deep meaning between his words, and said generously,

"It is my honor to be Mr. Huo's secretary"

At this time, Huo Ting glanced over, looking like he wanted to smile or not,

"I don't know yet, my secretary...... He can talk so much."

"I have time to visit Mr. Huo in the company"

Although Cheng Fei said what he said to Huo Ting, a pair of eyes lingered on Zhou Niannian's face.

His eyes were presumptuous, and Zhou Niannian lowered his head by his staring.

Pulled Huo Ting's sleeve and begged him for help.

Huo Ting didn't say anything,

"Of course you're welcome"

He chatted with Cheng Fei for a few more words, and then left with Zhou Niannian.

Zhou Niannian was dissatisfied with his "don't save when you see death" just now,

"That's what Mr. Huo brought me here for? to push me to another man? for your business contact?"

Huo Ting stopped,

"Do you think you're qualified?"

The tone is extremely sarcastic.

"Then why didn't Mr. Huo help me just now?"

Zhou Niannian glared at him, his eyes full of stubbornness.

"Who are you, I'm going to help you?"

Huo Ting sneered,

"Zhou Niannian, are you a little too self-righteous?"

Breathing is stagnant.

It turns out that's what he thinks of himself.

"I know Mr. Huo"

Zhou Niannian whispered,

"Don't worry, I won't be so self-righteous again"

The evening cocktail party ended.

Cheng Fei came over and asked Zhou Niannian,

"It's late, it's not safe for Miss Zhou to go home alone, right? I wonder if I can enjoy the light and let me send you back?"

The meaning of his invitation is obvious, Zhou Niannian is not stupid, and naturally knows that it will not be as simple as "sending her home".

looked at Huo Ting, who was lighting a cigarette next to him, completely out of the way, and nodded angrily.

"Good"

Raising his heels Cheng Fei to leave, Huo Ting grabbed her wrist again.

His movements were so rough that he almost fell.

"It's not like it's good to come home with me at night"

Huo Ting smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his tone was ambiguous,

"What, you're going to miss the appointment?"
