Hearing the knock on the door, Huo Qingzhou responded.

When he saw He Mei coming in again, he frowned slightly.

Then I thought that it was her first day here and she might not be familiar with the place.

"If it's about work, you can ask Zhang Cai."

"No."

He Mei walked closer, shook her head, hesitated for a moment, and handed the bag in her hand to him.

"Qing... Mr. Huo, this is my first day here, and I'll need your care in the future. This is a small gift I prepared specially for you, I hope you like it."

I thought Huo Qingzhou's eyes would light up, but unexpectedly his face darkened.

"I told you not to get close to me."

"I'm not trying to get close to you, I..."

"Just go out if you have nothing to do."

Before he could even finish his words, he was ordered to leave.

He Mei had no choice but to leave his office in disappointment, thinking that Huo Qingzhou might have said such things because he disliked others trying to get close to him, and she felt a little better.

She will pay more attention to this in the future.

Glancing at the bag in her hand, her eyes were filled with disappointment. This was the bag she had carefully prepared for Huo Qingzhou.

It's a pity that he didn't appreciate it.

Zhang Cai happened to pass by.

She had an idea and handed the bag to Zhang Cai: "Assistant Zhang, this is what I prepared for you."

Zhang Cai was full of surprise and was very happy after receiving the gift.

I didn't expect he was so popular!

He Mei even prepared a gift specifically for her.

He is so, so happy today!

……

Jiangcheng Prefecture.

Sixth Aunt went out to buy supplements, Huo Qingzhou had not returned yet, and Zhou Ning stayed in the room alone.

She paced back and forth leisurely. Her throat had really improved after drinking pear juice several times.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

I felt that it definitely wasn't Sixth Aunt or Huo Qingzhou who came back, otherwise they would have opened the door directly.

He walked to the door in confusion, opened it, and saw a woman standing in front of him.

She felt that it looked very familiar.

The man looked at her with the same eyes.

The two of them said almost in unison: "Is it you?"

He Mei was surprised that Zhou Ning appeared here. Although she had known that she knew Huo Qingzhou, she never thought that Huo Qingzhou would let her stay in Jiangcheng Mansion.

How could Huo Qingzhou, a xenophobic person, allow others to live in his house?

"Is Brother Qingzhou here?"

He Mei quickly got over her surprise.

Zhou Ning also came to his senses and answered truthfully. Seeing He Mei was about to come in, he consciously made way for her.

He Mei looked inside with an examining attitude, and then cast her eyes on Zhou Ning, with a preconceived impression.

"I've recently been interning at Brother Qingzhou's company as his secretary. This time I came here with a document that I needed him to sign in person."

Zhou Ning nodded: "He should be back soon."

"Why are you here? Do you live here?"

"I……"

She didn't know how to answer for a moment, considering that she didn't know clearly, maybe Huo Qingzhou didn't want to talk about the unclear relationship between them, and she wouldn't talk nonsense without permission.

She walked aside under the pretext of pouring water for He Mei and did not continue the topic.

When I brought the poured water to He Mei, I saw that He Mei had already sat down on the sofa and said,

"You and I are both guests. I can't trouble you."

Zhou Ning was stunned for a moment, then looked at He Mei, who had a kind smile on her face. He said nothing and sat down beside her.

"You haven't answered my question yet?"

Seeing the other party asked again, she answered wittily: "You should ask Mr. Huo about this."

He Mei's expression changed.

Although she was aware of the crisis, she knew that Huo Qingzhou had never made his relationship public, and that he might just be looking for something new for Zhou Ning.

If he really likes Zhou Ning, he will definitely make their relationship public.

There is no need to hide it.

Coupled with Zhou Ning's embarrassed expression, she concluded that Zhou Ning and Huo Qingzhou's relationship was not to be seen in public.

Like fireworks, fleeting.

Otherwise her family would know something about it, but she didn't get any information from her parents.

She had also investigated Zhou Ning's background before. Her family background was not up to par at all, and she was not even qualified to compare with her.

Even a wealthy family like the Huo family would not agree to let her marry into the family.

In this case, he is just a small fry.

Zhou Ning didn't know what to talk about. She didn't want to have an awkward conversation with someone she didn't know well. She just hoped that Huo Qingzhou would come back soon.

Suddenly seeing He Mei taking the initiative to add contact information, she had no reason to refuse.

The two of them added each other as friends.

Not long after, He Mei suddenly stood up, walked towards a place, and said with a smile: "This is an antique vase that our two families bought in France before. It has been so many years, I didn't expect Brother Qingzhou still kept it."

Zhou Ning took a look at it, she didn’t quite understand it either.

I just know that when I first saw this thing, I thought it was very expensive.

As for its origin, she was not very clear.

She had suddenly burst into Huo Qingzhou's world.

At this time, the door opened and Huo Qingzhou walked in, interrupting the conversation between the two.

Huo Qingzhou habitually looked for Zhou Ning. When he saw He Mei also appeared here, his face flashed with surprise: "Why are you here?"

"The company has a document that needs to be signed temporarily, so they sent me over to take a look at it for you."

He Mei answered in an orderly manner.

Although she took the initiative to grab this task, she certainly wouldn't say it out loud.

As she spoke, she walked up to Huo Qingzhou.

Unexpectedly, Huo Qingzhou just glanced at her indifferently, then walked straight around her and came to Zhou Ning.

"Why don't you wear a coat? Don't you want your throat to get better soon?"

Before Zhou Ning could react to Huo Qingzhou's words, she saw the man had already brought her coat and put it on her.

Her body felt warm.

He Mei watched the sudden scene from the side and her pupils shrank in surprise.

After helping Zhou Ning put on her coat, Huo Qingzhou led He Mei to the study to discuss some paperwork-related matters.

As soon as she entered the study, He Mei smelled the fragrance of books. Hiding her inner excitement, she handed the documents she brought to Huo Qingzhou.

While Huo Qingzhou was carefully reviewing the documents, she looked around curiously.

When her eyes fell on the corner, her gaze tightened.

The corner is obviously inconsistent with the calm atmosphere of the study. There are a few cute dolls on the recliner, and on the small coffee table next to it, in addition to a few books, there are also some cute decorations.

There is also a soft-looking carpet on the floor, which is very girly and makes people want to step on it.

Is this specially prepared for Zhou Ning?

Huo Qingzhou didn't notice it at all and just focused on the document.

He Mei stood in front of the table, facing him, but she felt that this was not enough and wanted to get closer to him. She pretended to walk to his side naturally and asked:

"Boss Huo, you are frowning. Are you facing any problems? Tell me about it. I might be able to provide some help."

When she approached, Huo Qingzhou smelled a scent of perfume and frowned.
