Chapter 338: Unaccountably Solicitous

Qiu Junqiao stood up hurriedly, her arms and legs still weak. However, she ignored that and nodded continuously. “I…I got it.”

“Please.” Huo Jinyao stepped back with a calm disposition. “Remember to send my regards to President Qiu.”

Qiu Junqiao nodded senselessly and looked like she was making an escape when she left.

Huo Jinyao straightened his clothes after she had gone and calmly settled back at his desk to handle the rest of his work.

When Su Qingsang exited the hospital, she immediately spotted Huo Jinyao waiting for her with a bouquet of roses in his hands as he stood by his car in an ostentatious manner.

She was shocked by his behavior. She looked left and right and realized that many people were looking in his direction.

“What are you doing?”

Stepping forward hurriedly, Su Qingsang wished that she could push him back into the car.

“I’m picking you up from work.” Huo Jinyao smiled brightly as he held out the bouquet of roses in front of Su Qingsang. “Fresh flowers for a beauty.”

“Why the flowers?” Su Qingsang received the bouquet of roses from him. “What’s the occasion?”

“Can’t I give you flowers when it’s not a special occasion?” Huo Jinyao circled her waist with his arm. “It’s not good for you to think this way, my dear.”

Su Qingsang stepped back slightly as her eyes bore into Huo Jinyao’s. Her beautiful and elegant face reflected amus.e.m.e.nt.

“Really? Why do I feel that you have a motive behind this unaccountably solicitous behavior?”

“Dear,” Huo Jinyao looked searchingly at Su Qingsang and a look of hurt flashed in his eyes. “Don’t you have any confidence in me?”

“Alright, fine, I was kidding.” Su Qingsang boldly stepped forward to kiss him on his cheek. “Thank you for the surprise, I like it very much.”

The pair got into the car and Huo Jinyao told her of his arrangements.

“The air tickets have been booked for a morning flight the day after tomorrow. The itinerary has been arranged too. When you arrive there, there will be a Mandarin-speaking tour guide accompanying both of you.”

“Great,” Su Qingsang glanced at Huo Jinyao with a look of appreciation in her eyes. “Thank you.”

A smile tugged at the corners of Huo Jinyao’s lips and the look in his eyes reflected joviality. “You’re welcome. I’ll personally accept your gift of appreciation tonight.”

Su Qingsang blushed a deep crimson. Sure enough, Huo Jinyao’s decency could not last more than three minutes.

Li Qianxue looked at Su Chenghui’s secretary who was standing before her and knocked softly on the table. “You’re sure that he is not exhibiting any strange behavior recently?”

“Yes, I’m sure.” The secretary shook his head. “During this period of time, President Su has been busy with the partners.h.i.+p project with Tianyu Group. There is a project that was originally a.s.signed to the Qiu Family, but it was later re-a.s.signed to us. That caused President Su to be extremely busy recently.”

Li Qianxue remained silent. She had Li Corporation’s latest financial report laid out in front of her. The rising numbers on the report also explained Su Chenghui’s capability.

“A few days ago, some smaller enterprises’ owners treated President Su to a meal, but such lunch meetings are very common.”

The secretary had arranged the lunch meeting and had left after introducing the partic.i.p.ants to one another. Therefore, he was not aware of Su Chenghui leaving early.

“You can leave to tend to your duties.” Li Qianxue had a nagging feeling that something was not right. “Oh, right, inform me of any schedule changes which President Su might have.”

“I will.” The secretary had originally been groomed by Old Master Li. Later on, due to an absence of any competent personnel under Su Chenghui, Old Master Li had a.s.signed the secretary to him.

After the a.s.signment, the secretary had been whole-heartedly serving Su Chenghui. However, Li Qianxue would occasionally ask for him to question him about trivial matters.

He naturally knew not to step on the toes of either party he served. He was well aware of what he could divulge and what he could not. Due to this, Su Chenghui had kept this secretary by his side.

After the secretary had taken his leave, Li Qianxue was still plagued by the feeling that the whole matter was not as simple as it appeared to be.
