Just when Lu Zhaoyang thought she had escaped from Huo Yunting, he was now pursuing her right up to her doorstep. How could she not get frustrated?

“Then let’s talk.”

Huo Yunting was happy to oblige. He sat down on her right, the corners of his mouth raised to reveal a subtle smile, and his beautiful eyes gluing to her body.

The stare made Lu Zhaoyang uncomfortable, but she still put on a bold face and read the agreement at the table.

“Honey, what are we having for lunch?”

“Packed lunch!” Lu Zhaoyang almost lost her patience.

“What? You have been eating that all this while?” Huo Yunting squinted. He stretched out his big hand to cover the documents in front of her.

Lu Zhaoyang looked at the hand that suddenly appeared in front of her. His fingers were long with distinct knuckles. They looked strong, just like him, who could make things happen with the snap of a finger.

“The cafeteria,” she explained helplessly.

“Are you telling me that you will bring me to eat at the cafeteria?” As Huo Yunting said that, he was actually sorry for her not having a real meal for the past one month.

“Let us get down to business and close the deal before noon. President Huo, you might want to get your lunch elsewhere, for a small company like us, all we have here is only a cafeteria.”

If eyes could be as sharp as a dagger, Huo Yunting’s hand would have been pierced with many holes.

Huo Yunting suddenly got to his feet but did not remove his hand. His hands went around her and suddenly hugged her from behind.

“Tell me, have you had a proper meal recently?”

The sudden gesture of concern stunned Lu Zhaoyang. Since he had chosen to hurt her mother, what was the point of caring for her now?

“President Huo, please stop doing things that cause confusion.” Her muscles tensed, but she still sounded calm.

“Confusion? What confusion? Let’s be clear; I am here just for you.” Huo Yunting lowered his head close to her ear. “I would not have come had you not been here. Ge Yu? I have never heard of it before.”

“If you think we are a nobody, I don’t mind if you leave now.”

Lu Zhaoyang tilted her head slightly, and Huo Yunting’s slight cold lips touched her cheek.

Once he kissed her, it would be endless.

“As a professional manager, your job is to look after the interests of the company. What would your boss think of you if you ask me to leave now?”

“It is never easy to get business from Thunderbolt Corp, and I believe my boss will understand me.” Lu Zhaoyang bet that Xiang Jinxi could not care less whether she could strike a deal with Thunderbolt judging from his indifference.

“You were my former chief secretary. If you cannot do it, who could?” Huo Yunting suddenly let go of her and patted her little face. “Let’s eat something. I am starving. We talk later in the afternoon.”

Afternoon?

Lu Zhaoyang took a deep breath. For business sake, she followed Huo Yunting to a high-end restaurant near her office.

But what did the cozy setting and the red rose on the table mean?

“Today is—”

“It is Valentine’s Day.”

Lu Zhaoyang shot him a look. “Valentine’s Day is on February 14; it’s too early.”

“It’s White Valentine’s Day.”

Lu Zhaoyang almost fainted. “President Huo, I am here to talk about business, not to date you!”

Huo Yunting noticed her gloomy face and knew that it was time for restraint. He flicked his fingers for food to be served and stopped agitating her anymore.
