Chapter 605: 605, Chu Er plays tricks: I’m sticking to you now!
“It’s getting late.”
“I’m in this state and you still want me to go? What on earth are you thinking?”
Shi Huan fell silent.
The room descended into an eerie silence, with even a pin-drop being heard.
Chu Xiuhuang just sat there, his sharp phoenix eyes focused and deep, staring at her like a predator.
Eat her up?
Should he or shouldn’t he?
Eat or not?
His slender phoenix eyes swirled with hidden currents, until suddenly a piercing ringtone of a cell phone broke through the silence.
Chu Xiuhuang grabbed his phone impatiently and glanced at the screen, feeling even more annoyed.
After unconsciously licking the corner of his cheek, he reluctantly rose from the sofa.
Shi Huan quickly averted her gaze.
Unable to resist, she coughed twice as a hint.
“Stop coughing, do you think I wouldn’t know myself?”
Shi Huan: “…”
Fine. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
A few minutes later, Chu Xiuhuang finally got up, strolled over to the door and flung it open, “Sooner or later, you’ll be the death of me!”
First, she had kicked him in the office, then bumped into him at the hospital, and just now she had…
What did all this mean?
Chu Xiuhuang clenched his fist, and suddenly spouted angrily, “I don’t care, I’m damned hooked on you now! Remember this, it’s been the third time now, and you will pay me back tenfold in the future! One time counts for ten! Do you understand?”
Shi Huan was taken aback, “What?”
Understand what?
What did ‘one time counts for ten’ mean?
What did all this imply?
Before Shi Huan could respond, the man left, swinging the door behind him arrogantly.

At the same time, at Nangong Hospital, in a luxurious ward.
Shi Minyan stood by the bed, his normally handsome face was now shrouded with gloom.
Zhu Mingpeng was in a hospital gown, feet and face wrapped in gauze, and even his neck and wrists were bandaged. He looked utterly distressed.
“Minyan, you see, I was bitten by a dog, it really wasn’t my fault. It was your niece who splashed red wine on me first, hit me with money, humiliated me in front of so many people, and finally set a ferocious dog on me. I’m the victim!”
“What did you say to her?”
“I really didn’t say anything, your niece is just a shrew. Also, since she has a boyfriend, why would she lie to me? If I had known she had a boyfriend, I wouldn’t have bothered. Do you know, I gave her 521 roses and it cost me more than twenty thousand dollars, I even invited her to a dinner costing a few thousand dollars, who did I provoke?”
Zhu Mingpeng was absolutely upset.
He thought because of what had happened a few years ago, Shi Huan might have some issues with men.
For so long, no man had shown any interest in her.
He thought he could impress her by doing something special for Valentine’s Day. He spent a lot buying 521 roses and treating her to a fancy restaurant, just to show his sincerity.
Who would have thought…..
Shi Huan, who looked as innocuous as a bunny, turned out to be as ferocious as a wild cat, first splashing red wine on him, then publicly striking his face.
As if that weren’t enough, two men came to back her up and even set a dog on him!
On Valentine’s Day, instead of getting a date after giving flowers and inviting her to dinner, he ended up being bitten by a dog. Who else could be as unlucky as him?
Zhu Mingpeng could not swallow his anger. Even though he was staying in such a good hospital, he was determined to blame Shi Huan for everything.
If the Shi family did not give a satisfactory explanation, he would not let go.
He gritted his teeth and said, “Medical expenses, hospitalization fees, and even my mental loss fees, as well as the money spent on chasing her, all must be fully returned to me! Otherwise, I’ll see you in court! I’ll sue you to death!”
“See you in court?” Shi Minyan sneered, “Heh, Zhu Mingpeng, I know Huanhuan’s temperament best. If it weren’t for your filthy mouth, she would not splash you with red wine, let alone assault you.”
Zhu Mingpeng felt guilty, but he stubbornly retorted, “I didn’t make up those messy things about her five years ago! What, after all was said and done, are you afraid of it being talked about? Minyan, you may love this niece of yours, but there should be limits. This niece of yours seems calm and quiet on the outside, but who knows what she’s up to behind the scenes. She was fooling around with an old man a few years ago, even got pregnant and gave birth to a dead fetus. I’m not disgusted by her past and am helping the Shi family to deal with this trouble. Instead, you should be thanking me. Otherwise, do you think any other man would want her? … Ah!”
Before he could finish his sentence, a punch hit him, and he was knocked off the hospital bed.
The IV stand was knocked over, and he was knocked to the ground along with a loud crash, which sounded particularly creepy in the middle of the night.
“Help, someone! Help! There’s assault!” Zhu Mingpeng’s hysterical cries rang out.
Shi Minyan grabbed his collar and kept on swinging his fists.
Due to the forceful removal of the IV needle, blood flowed out of Zhu Mingpeng’s hand. His face which was already scratched by a dog was now marred by flying bandages due to the blows, his mouth was split, and his eyes were swollen.
Finally, the doctors and nurses came in and pulled Shi Minyan away.
For a man who was usually gentle and elegant, his countenance was fearsome, his eyes bloodshot. He roared, “Who told you about what happened back then?”
Zhu Mingpeng trembled, but didn’t want to answer.
“Speak! Who exactly told you about what happened back then?”
At Shi Minyan’s thunderous roar, Zhu Mingpeng jerked in fright and quickly replied, “It was Youran, Youran told me!”
Shi Minyan gave a bloody laugh, “Good.”
He turned and left the room.
Zhu Mingpeng, clenching his teeth in pain, hurriedly pulled out his mobile phone to call his family.
Just as the call connected, Madame Zhu was shouting from the other end, “Mingpeng, what exactly did you say to Shi Huan?”
“What do you mean?”
“Do you even know who was the man who set the dog on you today?”
“Who was it?”
Zhu Mingpeng was out of his mind with fear when the dog bit him, how could he have noticed who the man was?
Madame Zhu said, “It was Chu Xiuhuang, the eldest son of the Chu Family!”
“Impossible!” Zhu Mingpeng cried out, “He is just her boss.”
“But the several companies we, the Zhu Family, have partnered with just called, saying that Chu Xiuhuang directly ordered them to cancel all collaborations with us.”
“What? Why is this happening?” Now Zhu Mingpeng was suddenly in a panic.
The company had just signed several contracts with the start of the new year, but if things fell through now…
Madame Zhu sighed, “Don’t you understand? You upset Shi Huan, it displeased Chu Xiuhuang and he took action against our family’s company. Mingpeng, our Zhu Family is doomed this time! Truly doomed!”
Zhu Mingpeng: “…”
The phone fell to the ground.
Only now did he realize who he had actually offended.
But it’s too late for regrets now.

As soon as Su Wanwan arrived at the TV station today, she checked her final exam grades and ranked third in the class.
The first place was Jian Shuhao, the second place was another girl.
Su Wanwan was very satisfied with her results, so she took a screenshot and sent it to Huo Jingshen.
Huo Jingshen replied immediately: [You’re incredible, baby!]
Then, Su Wanwan asked, [Is there a reward?]
Huo Jingshen responded, [Yes.]
Su Wanwan’s eyes lit up, [What kind of reward?]
“You’ll find out tonight, baby.”
At night again?
Upon hearing this, Su Wanwan immediately had some unpleasant thoughts.
This despicable man!
“Lili, your flowers!” The receptionist suddenly walked into the office with a delivery boy.
When everyone saw the roses delivered, there was a gasp in the whole office.
99 pink roses.
And an exquisite gift.
Upon opening, it was a platinum necklace.
Consequently, everyone crowded around expressing their admiration.
Today was Valentine’s Day, even though Su Wanwan didn’t take it seriously at first, but not long after, another delivery boy came in, delivering 52 champagne roses this time.
Then a while later, a large bunch of bright red roses were delivered.
A short time after that, even the blue enchantress flowers arrived.
Truth be told, the atmosphere in the office had completely transformed.
Even Zhao Qianqian came over to ask, “Wanwan, didn’t your husband, Little Huo, send anything?”
With an air of indifference, Su Wanwan replied, “What would he need to send, we’re an old married couple.”
Zhao Qianqian was taken aback, “Already acting like an old couple and you’ve only been married for a short time?”
**
At lunch, the rare visiting Di Chenghe arrived with many staff members following him and a large bouquet of red roses in his arms.
When he let his staff start handing out roses to the ladies in the office, the festive atmosphere had been elevated to its peak.
Each intern, including Su Wanwan, also received a red rose.
But she was a little upset because other than the few messages that morning, Huo Jingshen hadn’t sent anything else.
By the afternoon, even Mo Weiyi had started posting lovey-dovey messages in the group chat.
That’s when Su Wanwan started to get mad.
How could Xiao Yebai, that cold-blooded animal, know to take Mo Weiyi to play the piano at the church, and yet this despicable Huo Jingshen had made no loving gestures today at all?
Was he just waiting for tonight’s activities?
Beast!
Bum!
Shameless!
Cheeky rogue!
In a huff, Su Wanwan opened Huo Jingshen’s wechat profile, and directly changed his nickname to “Huo Rogue”.
**
As it was nearing the end of the workday, the Rogue finally sent her a WeChat message, “Baby, what time do you finish work?”
Su Wanwan didn’t even want to respond.
But not long after, he actually called.
Su Wanwan answered grudgingly.
“What do you want?”
“What’s wrong? Is work really busy?”
“What do you want?” Su Wanwan said with a purposely cold tone.
“What’s wrong, baby?” Being the astute man he is, Huo Jingshen immediately caught on that something was off.
Su Wanwan retorted, “I’m busy at work, if it’s nothing then I need to hang up.”
“You’re just an intern, how can you be busier than me?”
“So what if I am an intern? Am I eating your family’s rice?”
“Isn’t the rice you eat every day from my family?”
“You…” Su Wanwan was caught off guard.
“Alright, alright, I was just joking.” Unable to suppress a chuckle, Huo Jingshen said, “Ok, what time will you be free?”
“What do you want?”
“Can I do you?”
“…You cheeky rogue!”
Huo Jingshen finally let out a chuckle, unable to hold it back any longer.
A mature man’s deep and sonorous laughter is extremely sexy, even more so when it is being transmitted through a receiver, it’s no exaggeration to say it could get you pregnant.
“I’m coming to pick you up now, come down when you’ve finished. I’ll hang up first.”
After saying this, Huo Jingshen hung up the phone.
Su Wanwan thought he was probably coming to pick her up for a Valentine’s Date, maybe there will even be a large bouquet of roses?
Thinking of this, her heart was glad and her lips couldn’t help but curl up into a smile, causing Huang Gangsheng opposite her to ask, “Why is Little Su so happy? Are you going on a Valentine’s Day date tonight with your husband?”
Su Wanwan just smiled without saying anything.
**
When it was time to end work, Su Wanwan swiftly got up, carrying the bouquet of roses, and took the elevator down.
When she arrived at the elevator entrance, and the doors opened, she saw Xia Mei walk out from inside.
Su Wanwan’s heart “thumped.”
Normally, she didn’t leave right when work ended, but today was an exception.
So she had run into her.
All she could say was…
Bad luck.
“Good day, Editor.”
Xia Mei glanced at her casually, “In a hurry to go on a date?”
After quickly considering it, Su Wanwan nodded in acknowledgment, “Yes.”
Unexpectedly, Xia Mei replied, “I was originally going to discuss the shooting arrangement for tomorrow with you, but since you’re going on a date, go ahead.”
“Huh?”
“Happy Valentine’s Day.” Having said that, Xia Mei walked inside.
Upon entering the elevator, Su Wanwan’s little brow furrowed.
Could she have any more bad luck?
And was Xia Mei doing this on purpose?
She had been interning here for over half a month now, and even though Zhao Qianqian had been on several shoots, she had not been included on any.
On any other day she wouldn’t mention the arrangement, but today, the day she leaves work early, she mentioned arranging it.
Huh.
Forget it.
Su Wanwan pressed the first floor button.
She had no idea what she had done to upset Xia Mei, but the relationship between women can be quite complex.
Su Wanwan was not one to let such things bother her. As long as she did her work conscientiously during her internship, she would not insist on staying if she wasn’t offered a chance, she would accept whatever comes her way.
When the elevator reached the ground floor and she walked out of the doors of the television station, from a distance, she saw that familiar black Bentley Mulsanne parked by the roadside.
