y, and Huo Shaoting was too aggressive..."Ho Shaoting…""Ouch!"She leaned against his arm, forgetting their earlier argument. Only the warmth of his body could soothe her, making her feel like she was...Wen Man really wanted to cheer him up.

She leaned into him, wrapping her arms around his neck and calling out to him softly, "Daddy."

Ho Shao-ting was taken aback.

Then, a very subtle ripple went through his heart.

This air of excitement continued into the firm, even Zhang, the secretary, noticed that Lawyer Huo was in an especially good mood and looked even more handsome than usual.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Zhang's secretary knocked on the door and came in.

She smiled and said, "Mr. Huo, the legal counsel from Gu's wants to meet you! I looked at your schedule, this afternoon at 4 o'clock..."

"I won't see you!" Huo Shaoting said in a flat tone: "Now the relevant departments have filed a lawsuit against Gu Shi's financial problems. They need to solve their own problems."

Zhang's secretary was a little surprised.

Master Gu and Lawyer Huo are in-laws, Lawyer Huo really doesn't give any face.

Ms. Zhang kept a professional smile and said, "Understood, Mr. Huo."

She returned to her secretary's office and responded to Gu Shi's legal counsel.

This message, naturally, reached Gu Changqing.

Gu Changqing was not surprised.

Ho Shao-ting's actions this time were clearly directed at him. At this time, it was too late to jump in and save him, let alone lend a helping hand.

This crisis is neither big nor small, it just prevents Gu Changqing from being able to intervene.

For example, entanglement with Wen Man.

For example, dealing with Wen Boyan.

Huo Shaoting is indeed the king of the legal world, he's very skilled at manipulating others. Gu Changqing considers himself ruthless after years in the business world, but compared to Huo Shaoting——

He yields to the superior force!

Gu Changqing was feeling irritable.

He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, smoking one cigarette after another.

He remembered that even during the biggest crisis that Gu Shi had faced, he hadn't smoked this much. Back then, Wen Man would always say in a soft voice, "Smoking too much isn't good."

Then he popped a mint into his mouth.

Cool and refreshing.

At that time, Gu Changqing actually found her annoying, Wen Man to him was a bit of a nuisance.

Though beautiful in appearance, she lacks tact and understanding.

If it wasn't for making Wen Berian a scapegoat, how could he have entangled with her for four years But now that she was truly gone, he felt an emptiness in his heart.

It's not used to, is it!

Gu Changqing told himself, it's just getting used to!

There was a knock on the office door.

His secretary came in and told him that the mall they had acquired at the beginning of the year was having some problems.

Gu Changqing said softly, "Go take a look."

Half an hour later, Gu Changqing's car stopped at the "Chang Teng" shopping mall.

He spent half the morning dealing with affairs. By the time he was finished, it was four o'clock in the afternoon. His secretary brought him a light meal: "Mr. Gu, you haven't had lunch yet! Have a bite first."

Gu Changqing had no appetite.

He said softly, "Let's go back to the company first."

I took the elevator down from the four-story office building, but unfortunately, it broke down. In the end, I had to use the customer's private elevator.

Gu Changqing's mood worsened, his face turning ashen.

As the elevator was about to reach the first floor, his eyes flickered.

He saw Wen Man.

Wen Man was shopping alone, carrying several bags in her hands. At this time, she was in a well-known menswear store, carefully selecting clothes. Her expression was very focused, even gentle.

Gu Changqing knew she was picking out clothes for Huo Shaoting.

The sight made him feel blinded, he didn't even want to look anymore. He quickly walked out of the mall and got into his car.

Gu Changqing gently closed his eyes and instructed the driver to turn back towards the mansion.

The secretary also saw Wen Man, but she didn't dare to speak or ask...

Gu Changqing returned home. When his mother saw him, she was a little surprised and wanted to ask about the company. Gu Changqing went upstairs while loosening his tie: "Mom, I'm a bit tired and want to rest."

Seeing his expression, Mother Gu hesitated to speak.

Gu Changqing entered the room and slammed the door shut. He lay on the bed, blocking his eyes with one elbow. His eyes were hot, his mind filled with Wen Man's gentle image...d, but Huo Shaoting quickly regained his composure: "Wait for me there, I'll be right over."Wen Man hummed in agreement.After hanging up the phone, she looked at the bill for a long time.……Ho Shao-tin...
