Huo Ye grabbed the woman’s hand tightly and flung it to the side. “Get lost!”

The woman stumbled and almost sprained her ankle from her high heels. Her face turned pale and she wanted to explain, but she was stopped by Huo Ye’s assistant.

Huo Ye looked coldly at the rest of the people in the meeting room and suddenly chuckled, but his eyes were filled with coldness. “Throw her out and let her reflect on herself, so that she doesn’t forget who she is!”

“President Huo!” The woman’s breathing quickened as she struggled to throw herself at Huo Ye. However, in the next moment, she was thrown out of the meeting room by his assistant, and she fell heavily onto the ground.

The employees who were passing by were shocked. They looked at the woman’s indecent posture and pointed at her.

After this move, everyone in the meeting room was stunned by Huo Ye’s swift and decisive methods, and they reported their work honestly.

The woman failed to seduce Huo Ye and secretly contacted Huo Yihua to report the situation.

Huo Yihua was angry as he cursed in disgust, “Useless! You can’t even do such a small thing!”

“President Huo, give me another chance. I will definitely complete my mission.” The woman begged fearfully. She was originally a chess piece planted beside Huo Ye. Under Huo Yihua’s acquiescence, the woman proceeded to seduce Huo Ye.

In the end, she went for wool and came back shorn. She angered Huo Ye and was worried that she would lose her job because of this, so she could only seek help from Huo Yihua.

Huo Yihua was a little tempted as he looked at the woman’s pitiful look. He lifted her chin and smiled evilly. “I’ll give you another chance, but if you still mess things up, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

The woman hurriedly nodded her head. However, after this failure, she had restrained herself and kept a low profile in the company. No one could find fault with her. Huo Ye turned a blind eye to this and did not probe further.

“Boss, what should we do with that woman?” Not to mention seducing Huo Ye in front of everyone, just this thought alone was enough to kill that woman a thousand times over.

Upon hearing his assistant mention it, a look of disgust flashed across Huo Ye’s eyes. He mocked, “If she’s willing to turn over a new leaf and work hard, she can naturally stay.” However, there was another meaning behind his words. If that woman was bent on courting death and still harbored ill intentions, then he couldn’t be blamed.

The assistant understood and thought that Huo Ye had his own plans, so he left obediently.

Although the two of them were still arguing, Huo Ye still contacted Xia Sheng to discuss work with her. Xia Sheng was businesslike. After the handover, she let Huo Ye out without any hesitation.

The two of them had cold expressions and the atmosphere was weird. The company employees were affected and were much more well-behaved than before. However, in the dark, a pair of eyes burst out with a vicious light, watching everything intently.

Because of this, the woman knew that her opportunity had come. She fixed her eyes on an intern who had been trying to get on her good side and stuffed a sum of money into her hands.

“As long as you help me do it, I can give you more than just money.”

The intern saw the money and nodded without hesitation. “I’m willing to do anything for you.”

The woman muttered something in the intern’s ear and left.

Not long after, a rumor suddenly spread within the company, causing everyone to talk about it.

“Is it true? Is President Huo really that kind of person?”

“A man’s mouth is a liar. Who knows how many women are trying to climb onto President Huo’s bed? It’s normal to have one or two lovers.”

“President Xia was kept in the dark. How pitiful.”

Xia Sheng came out of the pantry and heard everything clearly.

Her heart skipped a beat and her expression did not change at all. She slowly walked towards the few employees who were still unaware of the danger. “Why are you guys staying here instead of working?”

The employees were gossiping about what happened between Xia Sheng and Huo Ye. Now that they were discovered by the main character, they were scared out of their wits.

“We’re going!” The few of them returned to their workstations guiltily, burying their heads in their documents and drawing randomly.

Xia Sheng swept her gaze over the people who were looking around. Her expressionless face frightened many people, and for a moment, there was only the sound of typing.

Although she didn’t believe those rumors, she wouldn’t let them go so easily.

Seeing that everyone was working hard, she said coldly, “I’ll announce a mission. As long as someone can find the person who started the gossip, his salary will double this month.”

This wasn’t a small amount, and it was sufficient to move the hearts of everyone.

The person who spread the rumors was immediately found out. The chess piece that was planted with great difficulty was removed by Xia Sheng. Huo Yihua knew that Xia Sheng was not to be trifled with, but he could not swallow this anger, so he thought of getting someone to investigate Xia Sheng’s background.

Luo Shuqi’s appearance surprised Huo Yihua, but he was also secretly delighted. He immediately went to look for him.

“Young Master Luo is a smart person. Since you know my intentions, I won’t beat around the bush. How about we work together?”

Luo Shuqi sneered. He had not gained anything from Xia Sheng, so the other party’s plan had probably failed.

“To be honest, I did meet Xia Sheng last time, but we didn’t come to an agreement. I’m afraid I can’t help Mr. Huo.”

“Young Master Luo, why don’t you use force?” Huo Yihua smiled maliciously.

The two of them were in cahoots and had a common enemy. They quickly reached a consensus. Before long, the rumors started again. However, Huo Ye stopped them halfway.

Huo Ye was so angry that his face was ashen. He gritted his teeth and knocked on the table. “These people are really tired of living!”

The assistant lowered his head and complained in his heart.

“Go and find out who is fanning the flames behind the scenes?!” A storm brewed in Huo Ye’s eyes, and his voice was so cold that it could freeze someone to death.

The assistant did not dare to delay and ran away hurriedly.

Xia Sheng knew nothing about the rumors. She got off work as usual and was about to go home when she suddenly received a message from Song Mingyuan. She had no choice but to get someone to book a plane ticket to the Capital and rush to the Song family.

Mother Song welcomed Xia Sheng back into the house. “Have a seat first. I’ll go to the kitchen to see how the food is doing.”

Song Mingyuan rushed back from work early and said with a smile, “Don’t leave after dinner. Your room has been cleaned by the servants. Stay at home tonight.”

Everything had been arranged clearly by the Song family. Xia Sheng could not think of a reason to reject them, so she agreed. “Okay, sorry to disturb you.”

Father Song, who always kept a straight face, squeezed out a rare smile and said lovingly, “What do you mean by interrupting? This is your home, there’s no need to be polite with your family.”

However, there was a difference in their statuses and the two men in the house were not good with words, so they simply went to the study and let Xia Sheng get along well with Mother Song.

Song Qian saw the change in Xia Sheng’s expression and smiled again in the blink of an eye. “Sheng Sheng, you’re here. I was so focused on resting that I forgot to come out to greet you..”
