97: We Are Old Partners

We Are Old Partners

He Xuanyao didn't feel too great; she was involved in this proposal as well.1

Did Huo Jinyao mean that my abilities aren't enough? Is he really unsatisfied with the proposal or unsatisfied with me?

"Chief Huo, I'm not sure which parts of the proposal you're unsatisfied with. I think that we can improve it."

"No need to change anything. I'm unsatisfied with the whole thing."

Huo Jinyao didn't leave her any face at all.

He Xuanyao became angry. "Chief Huo, our two companies are old partners. You seem to be…"

"You also know that we are old partners. Since we are old partners, then you should definitely know our standards. Do you think that it's suitable for you to come up with something like this?"

"Regardless, you should still tell me which parts you're unsatisfied with."

"I told you, all of it."

Huo Jinyao's words really annoyed He Xuanyao. She breathed deeply to calm herself down. "Chief Huo, Aunty and Uncle Huo…"

"Stop it." Huo Jinyao stood up and stared coldly at He Xuanyao sitting across the office desk.

"Don't bring up my parents in front of me. Don't bring personal matters into professional matters. If you like my parents, or if you think my parents like you, then you can be with my parents. As for working together, especially in this regard, I make the call. Got it?"

He Xuanyao was someone who had seen a lot of things, but she was unable to lift her head up in front of Huo Jinyao at that moment.

She gaped and couldn't find her voice. "Jin…"

"This is no personal or outside matter, please call me 'Chief Huo' or 'Mr. Huo'. Please leave now."

Huo Jinyao sat down again and He Xuanyao, who couldn't handle this shame, bit down on her teeth and left.

"Don't forget your proposal."

She heard Huo Jinyao's voice and had no choice but to clench her teeth to go grab it.

I will remember this, she thought.

Huo Jinyao watched the door close and picked up the phone. "Put out the news that Tian Area is planning to open the invitation to the public for the net project."

Tian Area was the name for the company based in Lin City. He family? Hmph. Do they really think that they're the only ones who can talk about working together? That's not the case.

Luo Meishan put down the shopping bag in her hands and sat down at the coffee table. She looked at Su Peizhen and said, "Peizhen, the clothing we just saw really suited you. How come you didn't buy it?"

"I didn't like it."

Su Peizhen's tone was cold. No matter whether she was outside or at home, she was always cold towards others.

Her clothes were taken care of by professionals and all sorts of new items from a variety of luxury brands were brought to the Su household before they went on the market. She only came out to shop because she had nothing to do today.

"That's right." Luo Meishan thought of something. "I think I saw your younger brother when I went to the hospital for a check-up a few days ago."

"Yuxin?" Su Peizhen's eyebrows jumped and she became curious. "Why did he go to the hospital? Was he not feeling well?"

The Su household had a set of primary care physicians that would do yearly check-ups. Although Su Yuxin went to school, he went to a wealthy school. They should have school doctors.

"Not sure. But I think he came from the gynecology department." Luo Meishan paused. "Afterwards, I went to take a look. It seems like your family's illegitimate daughter works at that hospital."

Su Qingsang? What did Su Yuxin go find her for?

Su Peizhen wasn't pleased. "Are you sure?"
