Su Fann looked at his sleeping face and lightly bit the corner of her lips. She gathered up her courage to reach out and touch his forehead to see if he had a fever.

However, she instantly retracted her hand as if she had been scalded. How could this person not care about her body? With such a fever, you still want to drink?

He had no choice but to go to the bathroom to get an ice towel to help him wipe his face and cool his hands and feet.

Huo Shuqing's alcoholicity was good, she was just sleeping when she was drunk. However, no matter how good her alcoholicity was, her stomach would always vomit if she felt uncomfortable.

That night was torture for Su Fann, and she had never done such things before. Whether it was feeding him water or cooling him, or scrubbing the filthy things he vomited, she could not count how many times she had gone to the bathroom that night.

He finally calmed down in the middle of the night.

Everything before his eyes was as illusory as a dream. Even though he opened his eyes wide, he was still unable to clearly see who the person before him was. In the dim light, he saw a man wiping his forehead and feeding him a glass of water.

Was it Xu Mann?

Su Fann sat by his bedside, quietly looking at his face under the lamp. She sighed deeply in her heart, turned off the lamp and walked out of his house.

The next morning, Huo Shuqing woke up abruptly. It was six o'clock every day, and it had been over a decade since he had last woken up. When he opened his eyes today, he checked his watch and realized that he had overslept.

After taking a shower and wiping his body of water, he inadvertently glanced over his shoulder to see the marsh water vapor on the mirror in the bathroom. He reached out his hand to touch it, and the water droplets congealed and flowed down. When the water droplets flowed over the surface of the mirror, his memory abruptly flashed.

Last night, that Su Fann came to his house and he still —

Huo Shuqing pressed her hand on the mirror.

He probably didn't do anything last night, right? He had no impression of her at all. If that had really happened between him and her, she would still be in his bed, not gone.

Damn it, Huo Shuqing, you really made a big mistake last night!

He dried his body and returned to the bedroom to sit by the bed. He thought back to last night's experience, and only after making sure that he did not have sex with her did he begin to change his clothes with a peace of mind.

However, when he passed by the living room, he saw clothes hanging on the balcony.

Could it be that Su Fann washed his clothes last night? This girl was really —

He suddenly couldn't think of a word to say. He stared blankly at the balcony, then put on a thick trench coat and hurried out of the house.

The next day, Su Fann came to the office early as usual. When she returned to the dormitory last night, it was already 4 in the morning, but she didn't feel sleepy at all. She was lying on the bed with her eyes wide open, her mind filled with thoughts of what just happened. Staring at the dark roof for half an hour, she still crawled out of bed. Since she didn't have much time to sleep, she might as well get up and wash her clothes.

Su Fann was the first person to come to the office every day since work. After cleaning the office and watering all the flowers in the office, her colleagues continued to arrive.

Su Fann didn't mind the occasional chatter in the office. She just stared at the boring data as she processed it. This was a huge headache for Su Fann, who came from a liberal arts background. But there was no helping it, the exam was one thing. Once you entered the exam, you would have to do whatever you were assigned to do. Fortunately, after a year of training, she had mastered her own work skills.

Today, as she stared at the numbers on the computer, Huo Shuqing's mind kept coming back to her. She wondered how he was and whether he had recovered. Although she wanted to ask, she knew that she didn't have the right to, so she could only think about it.

However, at around 10 AM, her phone suddenly rang. It was Director Huang!

Shit, could it be that Secretary General Huo told Director Huang that she didn't do anything after she went last night? There was clearly nothing in his house that needed her help — if Director Huang was weird about her, she would tell him the truth. However, with Secretary General Huo's status, he shouldn't care about a minor character like her!

The cell phone kept ringing, but Su Fann's mind was wandering and she didn't pick up the phone.

"Su, Su?" When Sister Li, who was sitting on the opposite desk, saw that Su Fann seemed to be in a daze, she stood up and walked over to Su Fann's side and gently nudged her.

"Yes?" Su Fann suddenly stared at her. Sister Li pointed at Su Fann's cell phone and walked out of the office.

Thus, Su Fann quickly pressed the answer button and Director Huang's voice came over the phone, "Su, come to my office."

It seemed like it was still last night! Su Fann stood up and tidied her clothes before heading to Director Huang's office.

Because she always felt that Huo Shuqing wouldn't tell Director Huang about her condition, Su Fann didn't feel uneasy about it. She walked to Director Huang's office and knocked on the door.

Seeing that she had arrived, Director Huang changed from his usual respectful demeanor. He got up from the chair and said with a smile, "Oh, Su is here. Sit down quickly."

Su Fann politely called out "Director Huang" and sat on the spot where his finger was pointing. Director Huang walked over and sat on the other sofa.

However, Director Huang just smiled at her and didn't say anything.

"Bureau Chief, you're looking for me? Is there something you need?" she asked.

"Su, did you do what I told you to do last night?" the director asked with a smile.

Su Fann nodded.

"You are a smart man. I am doing this for your own good. In the future, you must communicate with Mayor Huo more — —" Wu Tie said.

"Mayor Huo?" Su Fann asked in surprise.

"Secretary General Huo is about to become our Cloud City's Mayor." Director Huang replied, but a trace of doubt arose in his heart. Could it be that Huo Shuqing didn't tell her last night? Oh, why should Huo Shuqing tell her? She was only sleeping with him for the night. Why would Huo Shuqing talk to her about so many things?

Su Fann suddenly understood the reason why the bureau chief fawned over Huo Shuqing. Huo Shuqing had become Cloud City's Mayor and was now Director Huang's direct leader. No wonder —

"Su, what problems do you have with your work and life? Don't worry, just tell me and I'll find a way to solve them for you, okay?" Director Huang was like a good father.

Su Fann also knew that the Leader only said those words in an official tone. She couldn't give him any benefits, so how could he be so good to her? Even though she didn't believe the director, she nodded.

Director Huang seemed to be relieved, and his whole body relaxed.

However, at this moment, Director Huang's phone rang. Su Fann quickly got up and prepared to leave. The bureau chief silently agreed.

Director Huang walked to his desk and picked up the phone. Huo Shuqing's voice came from the other end.

"Hello, Director Huang. I'm Huo Shuqing."

"It's Secretary General Huo!" Director Huang hurriedly looked towards the door and noticed that it was just closed. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, why didn't he keep Su Fann here?

"It's me. There's something I need to trouble you with." Huo Shuqing said directly.

"As long as you give me your orders." Director Huang was secretly delighted when he heard Huo Shuqing's words. It seemed that giving Su Fann to Huo Shuqing was the right move!

"I don't have any instructions!" Huo Shuqing said, "I want to ask for Su's number. You should have one, right?"

Director Huang's face was already blooming with happiness as he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, please wait." Thus, Director Huang quickly gave Su Fann's cell phone number to Huo Shuqing.

Huo Shuqing took out a pen and quickly wrote down the numbers. She expressed her thanks to Director Huang with a smile and then hung up the phone. As for Director Huang, he was so happy that his white hair was almost standing up.

Before Su Fann could return to her office, she received a call from Huo Shuqing.

Huo Shuqing had used her cell phone to call her. It was a string of numbers that she was unfamiliar with.

"Hello, hello," she said politely.

"Hello, I'm Huo Shuqing!" His voice sounded a little different from last night.

"Oh, oh." Su Fann, who was on the stairs, quickly went to the window. "What can I do for you?"

Huo Shuqing smiled and said, "It must have been hard on you last night. I want to treat you to a meal. Are you free tonight?"

He's treating? Su Fann didn't know what to do when she thought of facing him face-to-face. Eating with someone like him, no matter how delicious the food was, he would not be able to eat it. It would be better to cook instant noodles on your own!

"No need, no need, you're welcome —" She refused.

"At six thirty in the afternoon, at Maxim's Restaurant in the Wannsee Building on the west side of Beijing, I won't come to pick you up if you go by yourself," he said directly, ignoring her refusal.

His tone was commanding, but it was filled with a gentleness that made her feel unfamiliar, and she could no longer say any words of rejection.

"Then let's leave it at this for now, I still have some matters to attend to!" See you tonight. He said goodbye and hung up.

At this moment, in Su Fann's small heart, Huo Shuqing had suddenly become much, much taller.

Running errands for the leader was nothing out of the ordinary, but there had never been anyone like him. Even though it was just a meal, Su Fann already had a sense of being respected.

Secretary General Huo was such a good person! Su Fann thought.

All day long, Su Fann's mood had been elevated because of Huo Shuqing's dinner. She usually liked to smile at others and had a good relationship in the office. Today, she couldn't hide her joy, making her colleagues wonder if she had a boyfriend.

The west side of the capital city was still quite a distance away from the road where Environmental Protection Agency resided. The west side of the capital city was where Cloud City flourished, while the democratic road was relatively more remote. It was very difficult to take a taxi, so Su Fann left the office early. After all, this was the first time she was invited by a senior official for a meal, so she couldn't be late.

He finally managed to get a taxi, but the road was blocked. By the time he arrived at the Wansheng Building, it was already almost 6: 30.

Su Fann quickly got on the elevator and went to this high-end western restaurant on the 13th floor. However, she didn't know if Huo Shuqing had reserved a place for them. Just as she was standing in the doorway to the dining room, her cell phone rang.
