Then her face flushed scarlet. She picked up the paper bag in her hand: “I came to return Mr. Huo’s coat.”

Ho Shao-ting reached out and took it.

He nodded curtly, "Thank you."

After saying that, he went straight to the elevator without a word.

Wen Man was getting anxious. She hurried to catch up with him: "Mr. Huo, I want to ask you…"

Huo Shaoting pressed the elevator button. The elevator door opened, and Wen Man followed in, putting on a brave face.

Huo Shaoting gave her a sideways glance.

He straightened his shirt in the mirror, his voice flat. "I won't take your case."

Wen Man's hands and feet were ice cold.

It seems that Huo Shaoting already knows about her family affairs!

She whispered, "Has Gu Changqing greeted you"

Ho Shaoting met her gaze in the mirror, smiling faintly: "He doesn't have that much face! Miss Wen, I just like to separate public and private."

Wen Man understood his meaning: he wanted a thrilling experience with her, and he welcomed it, but if it involved work, then it was off-limits.

She felt a little embarrassed.

Ho Shaoting did not force her.

Although Wen Man fit his aesthetic, she wasn't enough to make him break his rules. Besides, it was broad daylight and he wasn't in the mood.

The elevator arrived at the 28th floor.

Ho Shaoting's secretary waited at the door. She was a little surprised to see Wen Man, but years of training prevented her from losing composure. She still said respectfully, "Mr. Ho, Mr. Ma has arrived."

Ho Shao-ting threw the handbag to his secretary and instructed, "Send it to the dry cleaners."

The secretary tactfully excused herself and left.

Ho Shaoting lowered his head to browse the information on his phone, casually saying to Wen Man: "You find another lawyer! ... Also, women's belts shouldn't be too loose!"

He finished speaking, then walked out of the elevator.

Wen Man thought he was hypocritical and a bit of a sleaze!

……

Wen Man was rejected by Huo Shaoting, and she tried every means to see him but failed.

Ruan Yi at home was getting increasingly anxious, constantly complaining. Wen Man was under a lot of pressure. She made an appointment to meet with her university classmate Bai Wei.

Bai Wei got married right after graduation. She married a rich second-generation from the city and has a wide social circle.

Wen Man asked Bai Wei to help her think of a way.

The two met at a cafe, and Wen Man told him everything that happened.

Bai Wei cursed at Gu Changqing, after venting her anger, she rolled her eyes: "You almost had a shootout with Huo Shaoting that night, didn't you"

Wen Man's face flushed, gently stirring her coffee.

Bai Wei lowered her voice: "Wen Man, you're amazing! Huo Shaoting has a sharp eye and rarely has any scandals."

Wen Man smiled wryly: "I really had no other choice, or I wouldn't have bothered you."

Ho Shao-ting held considerable power in that circle, and Bai Wei's assistance to her could easily make enemies.

Bai Wei is very righteous. She used some connections to get Huo Shaoting's schedule.

*** Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

On Saturday afternoon at three o'clock, Huo Shaoting made an appointment with people to play golf at the club.

Wen Man followed Bai Wei and her husband, unexpectedly seeing Gu Changqing there as well.

Wen Man was stunned for a moment.

Bai Wei pinched her own husband hard, complaining: "You didn't find out beforehand, how could Wen Man be so open with Gu Changqing here"

Bai Wei's husband sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, Wen Man! It's my fault for not checking things out."

Wen Man was about to speak when Huo Shaoting had already seen them.

He was dressed in a white casual outfit, tall and handsome with striking features... He stood out from the crowd like a star surrounded by admirers.

Just like the law firm, Huo Shaoting pretended not to know Wen Man and only greeted Bai Wei's husband.

Bai Wei's husband was treated like a precious jewel, smiling with all his might.

At this moment, Huo Shaoting seemed to notice Wen Man for the first time.

Wen Man's skin was already good, and today she wore light clothing on purpose.

White loose, light gray athletic shorts.

Her chestnut brown hair, slightly curled and styled in a bun, was both fresh and alluring.

Ho Shaoting's gaze swept over Wen Man's pale and slender legs, casually saying: "This one I haven't seen..."the cooked meat on a plate in front of her."Eat something! You've lost so much weight!"Li Siqi didn't speak, quietly eating two pieces. Gu Yunfan was obviously hungry, but he only focused on taking ca...
