Chapter 179: A Belated Proposal
Hearing this conclusion, the people around became more and more agreeable, and when everyone saw Huo Li, who rarely appeared in public, they couldn't bear the gossip and discussed it in a stumbling manner.
These discussions drifted into Huo Li's ears, a trace of displeasure flashed on his face, and he was just about to get up but was pressed down by Cen Man, Cen Man shook his head, today is a good day for Bai Annian and Chen Mingchu, and the atmosphere of the scene cannot be ruined because of the gossip of a few people.
Huo Li looked at the people around him, wrapped one hand around Cen Man's slender waist, and the other hand stroked her long hair, kissed it in public, feeling the warm and moist lips, Cen Man understood that he would hook his neck and respond regardless of the gaze of others.
Suddenly, the squirming voice stopped for a few seconds and sounded again: "Look, you still said that Mr. Huo doesn't love his wife" "Yes, it seems that the relationship between the two is very good" "Tsk, this Mrs. Huo is really capable"
"Manman, say hello to Chen Mingchu, let's go back." Huo Li's hand never left Cen Man's waist tonight, and he hugged her tightly and walked towards the door, leaving a crowd of sighs.
After returning home, "I'm sorry" Huo Li hugged Cen Man on the bed and whispered to her.
Cen Man didn't know if this sorry was for his mother or because of a misunderstanding of herself, but she didn't dig deeper, and the two tacitly didn't mention anything about Mrs. Huo or Li Xian after that.
"Mom, the day after tomorrow there will be a party in the kindergarten, parents are asked to wear the most beautiful clothes to participate, you must remember!" When he got up in the morning, Xiao Huo Mo muttered, rummaged through his schoolbag with his little fat hand and handed Cen Man a letter.
X Park is a private garden not far from the kindergarten, and Cen Man did not suspect that the kindergarten had chartered the site for the safety of the children.
Huo Li walked over at this time and winked at Xiao Huo Mo,
"Mom, the teacher said you can't be late." Xiao Huo Mo seemed to understand, and left this sentence and dragged his grandmother out of the door.
"Manman, it just so happens that I asked Xiao Wang to buy you a dress, and you can wear it at night." Huo Li finished speaking in a very ordinary tone and went out to leave.
Then a box that was the size of a normal dress was delivered home, Cen Man didn't know what the father and son were doing, she opened the box, and her face was full of surprise.
The first thought that popped into Cen Man's mind was, why is this dress so similar, like a wedding dress!
When this dress was completely displayed in front of Cen Man, looking at the pure white in front of her, she only had one thought left, that is, this dress was too beautiful.
When Cen Man grew up, he had seen a lot of gorgeous and expensive dresses, but this one exuded a sense of holiness, which was not found in other clothes.
That night, Cen Man hesitated for a long time and put on an ordinary little dress, she was about to go out, but Mother Sun stopped her, "Young grandma, why don't you wear this one sent by the young master?" ”
This is still too ostentatious in Xiao Huo Mo's kindergarten, Cen Man shook his head.
But Mother Sun took the dress in front of her eyes,
"Why don't you give it a try, after all, this is the young master's heart."
Cen Man was moved by Mother Sun's words, and only put on it with the mentality of only trying it out.
She looked at herself in the mirror, the dress seemed to have magical power, and at this moment it seemed that there was light on her body, holy and shining, but the style and color of the dress seemed unimportant.
"Xiao Wang, take the young grandmother down." Mother Sun took advantage of Cen Man's attention, put away Cen Man's ordinary dress at a very fast speed, and pushed her out of the door.
"Young grandma, please hurry up and get in the car with me, the little young master specially instructed you not to be late for this activity." Outside the door, Cen Man was about to knock on the door, but was taken into the car by the anxious Xiao Wang.
The car quickly drove into the park, but after Cen Man got out of the car, it was pitch black, remembering the last time she met the gangsters in the park, she was a little scared in her heart, and subconsciously looked for the alarm in her bag.
Oops, he didn't take the bag when he was pushed out of the door by Mother Sun, Cen Man secretly screamed in his heart, and when he was about to go back to the car to let Xiao Wang leave, he found that the car was gone.
Cen Man was about to run back, but the lights in the park turned on, illuminating the entire park as if it were day, and the fountain next to her was also opened, she instinctively squinted her eyes, and saw that the fountain reflected a circle of light, and Huo Li, who was wearing a black suit and dark blue bow tie, was standing in the circle of light.
The red carpet under his feet was sprinkled with champagne-colored petals, and a bunch of red roses tied around him were also erected.
Huo Li looked at himself, his handsome face was only affectionate, and he didn't have his usual seriousness and indifference.
"Manman, I never proposed to you, nor did I give you a grand wedding." He slowly knelt down on one knee, lifted the ring, and said slowly:
"But what others have, my Huo Li's woman will definitely give her better. Manman, I love you, I promise to trust you in the future, please go down with me, okay? ”
Cen Man was very excited at the moment, she never thought that this arrogant man who had reluctantly accepted her would actually give her a marriage proposal.
She looked at the ring she had brought to herself and nodded solemnly.
Huo Li stood up and gently wrapped his arms around her, lowered his head and kissed her lips.
"Dad, great, we have succeeded, we will always be together as a family." Xiao Huo Mo, who was hiding on the side, couldn't squat anymore and ran out with a large bouquet of roses.
Cen Man wiped his tears, took the flower, hugged Xiao Huo Mo and cried and laughed.
When Huo Li heard others talking about Cen Man at Bai Annian's wedding, he thought that Cen Man was his wife, and he didn't want Cen Man to be wronged, knowing that Cen Man didn't like to be high-profile, so he discussed with Xiao Huo Mo and prepared a late marriage proposal for her.
This night, the bed tent was flying, and the bedroom was ambiguous, quite like the taste of the wedding night.
Cen Man woke up in Huo Li's arms in the morning, she gently stroked Huo Li's angular face, and quietly kissed it, recalling that everything was like a dream last night.
Cen Man's heart was a little grateful, she had been in the Huo family for so long, and after the relationship between the two had gone through so many ups and downs, this man would still take into account his mood and give himself such a romantic night.
"Madame is awake?" Huo Li opened his eyes, looked at Cen Man, who was secretly kissing him, laughed evilly, and pressed her down to kiss him back.
"Mr. Huo, this agreement has expired." Assistant Xiao Wang took the document to Huo Li to sign, he always felt that today's Huo Li was different from usual, and there was an indescribable strangeness.
Xiao Wang, who was standing at the door, patted his head and muttered, "That's right! Today, Mr. Huo didn't have a straight face, and even smiled. ”
But in the conference room in the afternoon, the middle level of the Huo Group was arguing.
Huo Li waited for them to have enough of arguing, turned his chair and looked at the people below, and suddenly everyone shut up, and the conference room was silent.
"Lao Yu, you are the general manager in charge of the market, you can tell me what is wrong." Huo Li regained his poker face and said to the nearest subordinate.
"After Ji's knew that he was cooperating with small and medium-sized enterprises, he didn't know where to know our reserve price, and re-signed contracts with these small and medium-sized enterprises at a more favorable price, so that these enterprises turned against each other and wanted to cooperate with Ji's one by one."
"Mr. Huo, although we are doing well in other sectors, but once we lose the cooperation of these small and medium-sized enterprises, our funds will have big problems in the short term."
"Where did Ji's know our reserve price?" Huo Li looked at his subordinates one by one and asked sharply.
"Such a trade secret thing should have a mole." Others didn't dare to answer, only Lao Yu raised his glasses and said solemnly, this Lao Yu is also an old employee of Huo's for more than ten years, and he has worked hard from a small staff to the position of general manager of the marketing department, and he dares to say it naturally hopes that Huo's is good.
After the meeting, Huo Li sat alone in the office and thought about Lao Yu's words repeatedly, although Yang Fuliang's whereabouts are unknown, but since Secretary Chen was arrested, it should be too late to install a traitor in Huo's family.
What went wrong made the Huo Group leak the handle again and again.
Mrs. Huo, who was in the Huo family's old mansion, also heard the news and had her own thoughts in her heart. Since Yang Fuliang left Huo's family, other people who have access to this kind of secret are decades of veteran employees, and they can be regarded as loyal and reliable.
And there is only one person who can have anything to do with Ji's family, and that is Cen Man.
Whether it is said that Mrs. Huo is prejudiced against Cen Man, or clinging to her own rational judgment, this time she is unwavering in her heart that Cen Man is a traitor.
Thinking of her son's attitude, Mrs. Huo didn't say anything at first, and secretly sent someone to investigate the correspondence between Ji and Cen Man, and made up her mind that she had to show Huo Li the evidence this time.
This time, Mrs. Huo came to Huo Li with a fierce attitude, and there was a smug look in her eyes that she couldn't hide: "Xiao Li, this is the evidence that Cen Man brought the list of Huo's cooperative enterprises in and out of Ji's family, you should believe your mother this time." ”
Mrs. Huo was referring to the time when Cen Man wanted to remind Huang Ailin.
"Mom, how can you be sure that there is an offer from the Huo family on this list, and besides, Cen Man and the little girl of the Huang family are friends, so it's not surprising to go to her." Huo Li didn't look at these things and persuaded Mrs. Huo.
"She can go to Ji's with the list, do you dare to say that there is no offer on it, and besides, I will check it clearly, it was Ji Shenyan who she went to see that time!" Mrs. Huo saw that her son was blindly helping Cen Man speak, and she was particularly angry and said angrily:
"I don't care if you believe it or not, I will hand over these materials to the board of directors, and let the board of directors check whether she is a traitor to the Huo Group, and you won't be able to protect her at that time."
Huo Li sent away Mrs. Huo, who had left the cruel words, and he threw the materials into the wastepaper basket next to him, and on the night of the proposal, he had promised to believe Cen Man, and he would not make the mistake of doubting her again.
