Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

No matter what, the popularity of the Huo Corporation had temporarily decreased. Seeing that the commotion could not cause much trouble, gradually, no one said anything.

However, this was only what everyone saw on the surface. In fact, there were still problems within the Huo Corporation.

“The potential partners can be arranged for a meeting this afternoon. In addition…” Ye Zhen spoke quickly and fluently, reporting Huo Yichen’s schedule today.

Huo Yichen thought about it in his heart. “Keep an eye on the project and the group of people who jumped ship. I’ll go and take a look at the potential partners myself in the afternoon.”

Recently, the Huo Corporation’s problems were sprouting up here and there.

First, the bad news affected the stock price, and then the backbone of the company took the lead to jump ship. If anything happened to the partners this time, who knew what the board of directors would do?

Just to play safe, he wanted to personally monitor the process this time.

“Yes, I’ll remember it.” Ye Zhen nodded and added another note to the itinerary.

However, as he took down the notes, Ye Zhen saw from the corner of his eye that his President’s eyes were a little green. He could not help but feel a little worried.

For the past two days, the President had been busy with the company. Even Ye Zhen felt guilty when he saw this.

In fact, if not for the fact that he had to go home to accompany Murong Qiao, Huo Yichen would have stayed at the Huo Corporation for at least 20 hours today.

However, he felt that it would not work even if he persuaded him. After the report was over, Ye Zhen took out his phone and sent a message to Mrs President.

If he could not persuade her, Young Miss Murong would definitely be able to do it.

Every time the sky was blue in the day, the prosperity of the city would fade, revealing its bustling nature.

Countless people walked and stopped. The signals of the traffic lights changed in the blink of an eye. These scenes were infinitely far away, so Murong Qiao, who was standing in front of the windows, could only see people moving like scattered ants.

After a long period of work, her sore eyes finally got a break.

Murong Qiao gently pressed the cold coffee cup in her hand against her eye socket and immediately felt much better.

Ye Zhen’s message came at this moment, causing Murong Qiao’s cell phone to vibrate slightly.

Murong Qiao took the cell phone and unlocked it. She saw a photo sent by Ye Zhen.

From the angle, it was obvious that the photo had been secretly taken at the office door. The desk and the man’s figure in the image blended together, causing Murong Qiao to notice Huo Yichen’s cold and slightly haggard expression at a glance.

This made Murong Qiao, who was already worried, frown even more. Indeed, she had to make a trip.

She had been distracted by Huo Yichen last night and could not find out about the exact situation. Thinking of the pressure the other party might face at the Huo Corporation, Murong Qiao directly freed up the night to look for the other party.

Knock, knock.

Someone knocked on the door behind Murong Qiao. It was a rhythmic and restrained sound. The person Murong Qiao recognized without saying anything was Jiang Chi.

“Come in.” She turned.

With her permission, Jiang Chi pushed the door open and entered. However, this time, he did not bring any materials. Instead, he just handed the tablet to Murong Qiao.

“There will be a change in your schedule in two days.”

As Murong Qiao listened to Jiang Chi, she took the tablet and opened it.

“Two award ceremonies?” She glanced at it.

Jiang Chi nodded. “These two ceremonies are the most important this year. In addition, a few artists in the company have also won awards, so you have to attend.”

It had been more than a year since the creation of CG. The artists who had been recruited from the beginning had already changed drastically.

The report that Jiang Chi handed in was simple and clear. The two awards were for the singer and actor categories respectively. One was going to be held on the next day, and the other three days later.

“Ning Xiunian, Chi Hanjing, Shi Yang…” Murong Qiao roughly glanced at the list of award-winning artists.

She had an impression of these people. At the same time, they were the most powerful artists in the company.

They had to attend both rounds. Thinking of the schedule, Murong Qiao was even more determined to look for Huo Yichen tonight.

“Then let’s do this first…” Murong Qiao chatted with him in detail.

Time pa.s.sed in a flash.

She was always thinking about Huo Yichen, hence she was not in the mood to work. After settling the matters today, she went straight to the Huo Corporation.

She was naturally familiar with the road since she had been here several times. It only took her 20 minutes to get to the Huo Corporation.

Thinking of the news incident a few days ago, Murong Qiao subconsciously put on a mask and hat to prevent the paparazzi and reporters who were still waiting from using her to make any more articles.

“h.e.l.lo, I’m here—” She went up and spoke to the security officer.

Before she could finish speaking, the security officer stepped aside and invited her. “Madam, please.”

So he knew her.

Seeing that the other party moved aside without hesitation, Murong Qiao was caught between laughter and tears. However, this saved her the trouble of explaining. Murong Qiao walked in directly.

The elevator went all the way to the top floor. When Murong Qiao entered, she saw a bunch of busy secretaries.

The Huo Corporation was filled with major and minor matters all day. There were many complicated matters that did not need Huo Yichen to handle personally, and were all handled by the secretaries.

When Murong Qiao arrived, everyone was busy running around. Everyone was immersed in their work. Clearly, no one noticed that there was another visitor on this floor.

“The meeting is about to end. Go and take a look,” Murong Qiao heard someone say.

She had no intention of disturbing his work, so she lightened her footsteps and walked towards Huo Yichen’s office according to the route she had taken the last time she came. However, when she turned halfway, she b.u.mped into Ye Zhen, who was obviously going somewhere with the doc.u.ments.

The other party’s hurried footsteps did not stop at all. If not for his sharp eyes and quick reflexes, he would have b.u.mped into Murong Qiao in the next second.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry—Madam!” Ye Zhen subconsciously made way and stabilized his body. Then, he slowed down and recognized that the person he almost b.u.mped into was Murong Qiao.

Seeing how anxious he was, Murong Qiao waved her hand and moved aside. “Just go about your business. I’m here to look for Ah Chen.”

After all, she was familiar with this path, so there was no need to trouble Ye Zhen. Moreover, the other party looked like he had something urgent to attend to.

“The President is still in a meeting.” Ye Zhen realized that his loud voice had attracted the attention of the surrounding people and hurriedly lowered his voice.

After explaining, Ye Zhen waved the information in his hand and gestured at Murong Qiao.

He pointed at the meeting room not far ahead of him. “We’re still discussing the issue on business partners. If you’re not in a hurry, why don’t you go to the office and wait first?”

“Alright.” Murong Qiao was not in a hurry and nodded in agreement.

While the two of them were talking, they delayed Ye Zhen for half a minute before sending the information to the conference room.

Unlike the busy atmosphere outside, as soon as he pushed open the door and walked into the meeting room, Ye Zhen felt a quiet and serious atmosphere, as well as the smell of gunfire between everyone.

There were many people who came to the Huo Corporation to discuss cooperation this time. Among them, a few powerful people even offered generous conditions. At this moment, they were all starting a bloodless war in the conference room.

When Ye Zhen arrived, everyone had already reached the white-hot stage. The two most compet.i.tive people had already made themselves known.

As the person who had the deciding power, Huo Yichen sat in the center.

Although he did not say anything, he received a lot of attention..
