Chapter 1944 - 434: Wanting to Make Her His Own_2
It’s really infuriating....
Huo Family:
Although the stocks have been declining, the board members remain calm, eagerly anticipating a turnaround in three days.
Therefore, the entire Huo Family is orderly, and the researchers in the laboratory are focused on their work, very attentive.
Earlier, Wang Ming gave Huo Si a heads-up, saying that everyone would resign in about three days.
So to prevent outsiders from entering and finding out about progress, Huo Zun arranged for everyone to seal off the laboratory in advance.
This way, no one knows what the situation in the laboratory is like.
...
Hua Nuan was in the laboratory studying a physics popularization instrument when Wang Ming’s phone rang. Seeing the familiar number on the phone, Hua Nuan raised a smirk.
Huo Si... actually called personally.
Not bad.
Hua Nuan walked towards Wang Ming, pulling him directly out of the lab, while turning on her phone’s recorder, signaling Wang Ming to answer the call.
"How’s it going on your end?"
The man’s deep, cold, and charming voice exuded a chill. Hua Nuan whispered into Wang Ming’s ear, "The Huo Family is now just an empty shell. Although the lab is open, all the staff have left, ready to job hop. If you’re not assured, you can come and see for yourself."
Not daring to slack off, Wang Ming relayed Hua Nuan’s message verbatim to Huo Si.
Hearing this, Huo Si on the other end of the line raised a satisfied smirk.
"Good... Without those tech stocks, they’re falling. I’m curious to see what else Huo Zun has."
Hua Nuan’s eyes cooled, and she whispered into Wang Ming’s ear.
"Mr. Huo Si, you truly strategize perfectly. This is called ’cutting off supplies,’ using me as an inside agent and offering high salaries to poach talent."
"Hmm, if there’s nothing else, continue to monitor. Call me if there’s any issue. I want Huo Zun to be unable to turn things around this time."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
Hua Nuan hung up the phone, her beautiful eyes squinting as she looked at the somewhat dispirited Wang Ming, curling her lips.
"Well done."
"If this happens a few more times, I might just drop dead, fair lady, spare me, please."
Hua Nuan smirked, then squinted her eyes, softly murmuring, "Relax, after this is done, I’ll surely spare you, especially since Huo Zun values talent in the Huo Family."
"Ah... then please."
"Hmm, I still have your phone with me. If Huo Si calls again, I’ll contact you."
"Alright."
...
Hua Nuan watched Wang Ming return to the office, checking the recording on her phone.
This time, Huo Si must be completely convinced of his inevitable success.
Ha, I just love watching men being blindingly confident and ignorant, like a trapped beast.
It makes me extremely delighted...
Hua Nuan returned to Huo Zun’s office, where the man was reviewing the latest drug feedback.
The assistant respectfully said, "Mr. Huo, the Huo Family’s drug has been well-received upon release, with a gentle effect and significant results."
"Hmm."
Huo Zun seriously reviewed the report in his hand, and upon hearing Hua Nuan’s footsteps, a doting curve appeared on his lips as he handed the report over.
Hua Nuan took it with a raised lip.
"Additionally, Mr. Huo, Huo Si’s drug is still being tested on white mice, and the data will take 1 to 2 days to be released. Based on clinical responses, the mice display high drug resistance, indicating substandard efficacy."
"Hmm."
Huo Zun’s blue eyes turned cold; to beat him, Huo Si really would stop at nothing.
A wicked smile full of allure appeared on Huo Zun’s lips.
"In 2 days, Huo Si will prove his drug’s effectiveness in front of the media at the hospital. We can use this opportunity to directly slap him in the face. After all... we’ll save the trouble of calling journalists ourselves."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
Seeing Hua Nuan, the assistant naturally felt embarrassed to stay and quickly said, "Mr. Huo, Madam, I’ll take my leave now. Let me know if you need anything."
"Hmm, thank you."
...
After the assistant left, Hua Nuan curled her lips, saying softly, "Huo Si called Wang Ming earlier, confirming the resignation of the lab staff. I had Wang Ming tell him that everyone has already left, reassuring him."
Huo Zun’s lips curled at her words.
"Hmm, with this, Huo Si must be certain that the Huo Family will fail completely."
"Yes."
Huo Zun raised his hand and embraced Hua Nuan directly, kissing her forehead.
How could his wife be so smart?
Smart enough to captivate him entirely with her charm.
Hua Nuan wrapped her arms around Huo Zun’s neck as if she’d thought of something, suddenly saying, "By the way, Huo Zun, aren’t the high school results out today?"
These days, the sweet post-wedding period had them sticking together all the time.
Unexpectedly, another corporate battle began during this time.
These days, thoughts were all on company matters, almost forgetting about the exams.
"Yes, I’ve already got your scores."
Seeing the little girl’s absent-minded look, Huo Zun’s lips curled into a wicked smile.
"Congratulations, your scores far exceed Yuncheng University’s admission line."
Hua Nuan: "..."
She didn’t expect Huo Zun to remember.
She thought everyone had forgotten about it.
"You haven’t told me the exact score."
"380, with physics and chemistry graded A."
Hua Nuan: "..."
Better than I expected.
Pretty much stable performance.
Hua Nuan couldn’t help but laugh, "Then I can really become a schoolmate with Ranran and Xiaowan."
"Hmm."
Seeing the little girl’s bright smile like a child, Huo Zun reached out to affectionately ruffle her hair, pulling her into his arms, his thin lips landing on her cheek, a smile spread on his lips.
Yuncheng University truly produces talent.
Actually, with Hua Nuan’s grades, other choices wouldn’t be a problem, but this woman is particularly fond of Yuncheng University.
Naturally, Huo Zun wouldn’t want his little wife to study far away.
With his wife by his side, he’d be most assured.
Snuggled in Huo Zun’s embrace, Hua Nuan squinted her beautiful eyes and said, "Let’s treat Ranran and Xiaowan to some spicy hot pot tonight, it’s on me..."
Women love spicy hot pot the most.
Huo Zun raised an eyebrow, "What about me?"
"You and Gu Mochen can stay home and watch the kids."
Huo Zun: "..."
The little girl is quite mischievous.
...
Hua Nuan and Huo Zun lingered in the office for a while before getting ready to head home after work.
Unexpectedly, as they left the CEO’s office, the assistant came up and whispered, "Mr. Huo, Huo Si is here, sorry, we couldn’t stop him."
"Hmm."
Huo Zun responded faintly, subtly shielding Hua Nuan behind him.
Hua Nuan’s beautiful eyes turned cold; this Huo Si was truly shameless, trying every trick to approach her and Huo Zun.
So shameless.
Internally, Hua Nuan had nothing but disdain for Huo Si.
Huo Si, dressed in a white suit, appeared at the end of the corridor, walking step by step towards Huo Zun and Hua Nuan, with a malevolent, icy smile.
The evil and flamboyance exuded by the man was detestable.
Hua Nuan raised a cold smile, while Huo Zun softly whispered, "Go back to the office and wait for me."
"No need, I’m fine."
Hua Nuan directly reached up, wrapping around the man’s arm, showing her solidarity with the man in her own way.
Huo Si, looking at the intimacy between the two, eyes turning cold, with deep jealousy,
"Big Brother, Sister-in-law, long time no see."
With his malevolent greeting, Huo Zun’s eyes turned frosty as ice.
