Attending a Meeting

"What are you doing…"

They were in a very intimate position. Huo Qing was still hugging An Ran, and a shoulder strap of An Ran's nightdress had already slipped off. He could see her beautiful chest once he looked down.

Huo Qing felt awkward too. He was not trying to take advantage of her. He only wanted her to sleep on the bed. He had not expected that she would wake up.

"I just want to lay you on the bed for you to sleep on the bed…" Huo Qing said in a low voice, but there was a strong desire in his voice.

An Ran moved uneasily. "Okay… Thank you."

Her body touched him, and Huo Qing could not help but let out a grunt. "Don't move."

"What?"

An Ran said in a daze, and then her face turned red.

She was wearing thin clothes, and she could clearly feel that Huo Qing had already gotten an erection and that it was pressing hard against her thigh.

What a scoundrel!

However… Somehow she did not feel disgusted.

"An Ran, what are you doing? You're here to work, but not to date. You just broke off your engagement, and there are many things going on at home…"

An Ran suddenly thought of this and pushed Huo Qing away.

"You said you wouldn't take advantage of me, so keep your word!" An Ran suddenly said to Huo Qing in a serious tone.

Huo Qing also realized what had happened. He coughed and got up from her body. "I'm sorry."

After saying that, Huo Qing walked to the bathroom.

In the end, An Ran did not sleep on the sofa. Huo Qing insisted that she sleep on the bed.

An Ran did not turn him down again as she thought that would be pretentious of her.

The next day, Huo Qing got up very early. He did not sleep well on the sofa.

Huo Qing went to deal with some company affairs first. He sent a message to his secretary, Wu Min, asking her to take An Ran to the negotiation after she woke up.

When An Ran woke up, she found that she was the only one in the room, so she quickly got herself ready.

An Ran went out for breakfast and bumped into Huo Qing's female secretary, Wu Min.

Wu Min had been Huo Qing's secretary for five years, but she had never seen him treat any woman so gently.

Although Huo Qing was almost 30 years old, there had never been any news about him having a girlfriend or any other dating rumors in the outside world. Huo Qing was a single, outstanding, good-looking, and rich man, so of course many people had secret crushes on him.

Wu Min was no exception. She had fallen in love with him ever since her first day of work, and she took advantage of work to get closer to him every day. When Wu Min had seen An Ran yesterday, she had already guessed that the relationship between An Ran and Huo Qing had not been that simple as Huo Qing specially had someone change the seats so that An Ran could sit next to him on the plane.

Seeing that An Ran had just gotten up, Wu Min became even angrier. Huo Qing had always disliked others getting close to him, especially women. Now, An Ran became an exception.

She imagined what had happened between Huo Qing and An Ran in the room last night. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails were pinching her flesh until it bled. Her eyes were full of jealousy.

"An Ran, President Huo asked me to tell you that you should go to the Xingyue International Hotel to wait for the business partner. President Huo will go there with the business partner later."

"Okay. Thank you, Secretary Wu," An Ran replied politely.

An Ran felt that something was off. Although she had not had much interaction with Wu Min, she felt that Wu Min was picking on her, and she talked to her in a strange tone.

An Ran comforted herself that she might be overthinking it. She thought she could not think straight since there had been too many things going on lately.

After An Ran finished her breakfast, she set off for the Xingyue International Hotel.

After waiting for a long time, she still had not seen Huo Qing and the business partner.

"Ring, ring, ring…"

"An Ran, where have you been? We're waiting for you at the Central Building of City B to attend the negotiation meeting."

An Ran was stunned when she received a call from Huo Qing.

???

"Didn't you ask your secretary to tell me to wait for you at the Xingyue International Hotel?"

Huo Qing was puzzled as well. "I didn't ask my secretary to tell you to go there. Can you rush over now? If you can't, I'll handle it."

An Ran thought that she could not let their business partner think she was putting on airs, so she told Huo Qing that she could make it.

After hanging up the phone, she immediately took a taxi to City By's Central Building.

There were still three minutes before the meeting started, and she finally made it to the door of the meeting room.

"Huff… Hang in there, An Ran. Don't let others look down on you." An Ran encouraged herself while adjusting her breathing before entering the meeting room.

"Miss An, you're really busy, indeed. You're in such a hurry just to attend a meeting."

The moment An Ran entered the meeting room, the business partner spoke sarcastically.

In fact, the business partner had already been impatient since earlier. He felt that An Ran was disrespecting him for not being present when he arrived.

If it were not for Huo Qing's explanation and pushing the meeting time to 20 minutes later, An Ran might have missed this opportunity to collaborate with them.

"I'm sorry. It's my fault for making you wait so long." An Ran knew that she was only almost late, but she still did not refute and only apologized humbly.

"Hmph."

Seeing that Huo Qing was here, the other party said nothing more.

"Alright, let the meeting begin."

With the memories from her previous life, An Ran performed very well at the meeting.

The business partner was very engrossed in listening to her and even praised her for her beauty and talent. Soon, both parties signed the contract.

Huo Qing, who was sitting at the side, also looked at An Ran with admiration. He also had not expected An Ran to be so talented, so he smiled.
