C57 Is There Any Use in Hiding

Su Huai rushed out of the western restaurant with an ashen face.

His footsteps were fast. In the blink of an eye, he had thrown Zhang Xiaoyan, who was chasing him, a distance away.

The woman's cries shook the heavens and earth.

A bouquet of roses slid across the air and smashed toward Su Huai.

The petals fell one after another, and the bouquet drew an arc in the air. With a bang, it landed on the ground. The exquisite wrapping paper was torn into pieces, and those flowers that were about to bloom were still bright and beautiful, but in the end, they still could not escape the fate of being turned into a pile of trash.

Su Huai took out his phone, and his gaze was fierce and cold as he broadcasted that number.

In the few seconds he waited, he had already thought of over a dozen ways to ruthlessly pinch that detestable woman to death. He was not a man who was easily angered. He had always been polite and polite to the opposite sex, a standard gentleman's style. He had never thought that there would be a day when he would be provoked. This kind of feeling of losing his rationality and being dominated by anger was like his body that was drunk and out of control. Su Huai did not like it. But his emotions were there, and he only wanted to vent.

One second, two seconds, three seconds. . .

The phone automatically hung up. The beeping continued.

"Scared? You don't dare to answer?" Su Huai sneered and gave chase again.

Lin Jia was even more stubborn than him, and she stubbornly refused to answer the twenty plus calls.

Su Huai waved his hand to stop a taxi and decided to return early to wait for the rabbit.

She couldn't possibly stay home all night, right?

He had to personally ask her why she did this.

- - -

It was already late at night when Lin Jia left the conference room.

After drinking three cups of coffee in a row, she only felt tired, but not sleepy.

Her legs, which were wearing high heels, were unexpectedly sore and weak, unable to support the weight of her body. She walked forward as if nothing had happened, not allowing anyone to read her true feelings from her face.

Other than Zhang Di and the other two members of the investigation team, a handsome middle-aged man in his early forties was slowly putting on a expensive suit.

"Lin Jia, wait a moment"

There seemed to be a hint of a smile in the voice.

Lin Jia felt a tingling sensation on her back when she heard it. Her hair stood on end and she felt indescribably uncomfortable.

She clenched her fists tightly and turned around. No emotions could be seen on her face, but the corners of her mouth revealed the most appropriate smile.

"Director Huo, do you have any other instructions?"

Director Huo - Huo Ming, the true authority figure in the HMF who could call the wind and summon the rain, had actually appeared in a small conference room in the office area. There was a half-smile on her face, but her eyes were slightly sharper, and her gaze was cold and sharp.

"I've always heard that Miss Lin is a smart and capable girl. After meeting her personally today, I found out that the rumors are always rumors. Miss Lin's excellence is even more dazzling than the words on those personnel evaluation reports. "

Huo Ming walked to her leisurely. He maintained a safe distance from her that allowed them to chat comfortably. Even so, Lin Jia could still feel an irresistible powerful aura enveloping her head like a gentle spring breeze.

There was a trace of viciousness in Lin Jia's bones. It was something that she had brought from her mother's womb. She had suffered a lot since she was young, but her inner strength had never disappeared.

Huo Ming was very strong.

Huo Ming's status was extremely high.

Huo Ming decided that her f * cking life would be very difficult.

Huo Ming could even decide whether she would go or stay with a single word of his.

However, these would only make Lin Jia more cautious and cautious. She would not be able to influence her decision completely.

She looked at the time and smiled. "I am very honored to be praised by Director Huo. It is already very late. Director Huo, you have worked hard for a day and should have a good rest. I will not disturb you anymore. "

She took half a step back and continued to maintain her impeccable manners.

Huo Ming had no intention of letting her go. He raised his long legs and blocked her way. "Don't be in a hurry to leave. "

"Is there something else, Director Huo?" Lin Jia asked in puzzlement.

"Let's go together for dinner later. "

He didn't use a questioning tone.

Lin Jia smiled apologetically: "I have something to do, so I have to rush over immediately"

"Are you sure your business is more important than the dinner later?" Huo Ming's expression didn't change.

However, the surrounding atmosphere instantly became stiff.

Zhang Di and the others surrounded Huo Ming. A few big men surrounded Huo Ming. No one spoke, but that overwhelming pressure spread over.

Lin Jia gritted her teeth in her heart, but she maintained a calm expression on her face, as if she could not hear the hint in Huo Ming's words.

"CEO Huo's gathering is of course very important, but I believe that CEO Huo can understand that his subordinates have no other choice. " She put her hands together and gave a pleading smile, "Forgive me, forgive me. Tonight, all of you will gather first. Next time, you will definitely not be absent. "

If there was a next time.

"It seems like Miss Lin really has something very important to do. " Zhang Di reminded him in a low voice, "Director Huo, the car to pick you up has arrived. "

Huo Ming nodded, "Let's go. "

He walked at the front. A group of people followed behind him.

Lin Jia hugged the folder tightly in her arms. She felt her back against the wall and instantly felt at ease.

From start to finish, Huo Ming never looked at her again.

The messy footsteps followed Huo Ming into the distance. In the end, they disappeared completely and could not be heard anymore.

Lin Jia removed the unchanging smile on her face and slowly squatted down with a bitter face to rub her sore calves.

These difficult few hours were even more tiring than her continuous overtime for a week.

It finally ended.

It was a dispute that had nothing to do with her, yet she was dragged into it so deeply. It was truly an undeserved calamity.

The office, which she was used to staying in, seemed to be stifled and suffocating at this moment. She first went to the office to get her handbag and planned to immediately get off work and go home.

The phone in the bag suddenly gave a notification that there was not enough battery. Lin Jia was a little puzzled and took it out to take a look. She felt an even greater headache.

Dozens of missed calls were placed on the screen.

Over a hundred missed calls were very spectacular.

The two people who made the most calls were Zhang Xiaoyan and Su Huai.

It seemed that tonight's confession wasn't going smoothly. These two people had such an extreme reaction at the same time. Were they planning to vent their emotions on her?

After considering for three seconds, Lin Jia decided to push all these negative emotions to tomorrow. Since she had already disappeared for a few hours, there was nothing wrong with her disappearing until tomorrow morning.

After making up her mind, the phone suddenly lit up.

It was Su Huai! It was already so late, and he actually still hadn't given up.

Accept? Or not accept?

Lin Jia hesitated.

The phone rang a few times before returning to its original silence.

Before she could heave a sigh of relief, a voice behind her rose without warning. Due to anger and some other indescribable emotions, that low and deep voice was somewhat vile.

"Is there any use hiding and not answering the phone?"

Lin Jia's hand shook and the phone fell on the table, making a crisp "Pa" sound.

"You. . . Why are you here?"

She made a swallowing motion and inexplicably felt guilty.
