Susu stood at the company's entrance with the chicken soup in her hands. After calling nearly three times, the call was finally connected.

From the other end of the line came the sound of dripping water. The phone should be a little far away from him. It sounded like the sound was a little low. After gently feeding him a few times, only after a long while did he hear Huo Zhou's impatient voice. "What's wrong?"

The temperature in winter was very low. Afraid that the chicken soup would cool, she deliberately put it in her coat to cover it. Her posture was not very good, so she managed to hold her mobile phone with difficulty and asked carefully, "Why didn't you answer my call for so long?"

"A meeting." Huo Zhou's answer was concise and concise, as if saying one more word was wasting his time. "What's the matter? I'll hang up if there's nothing else."

Susu grabbed the end and hurriedly said, "I cooked chicken soup for you. It's downstairs."

There was a moment of silence. Su didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt like Huo Zhou was speaking. His voice became even deeper. "Are you downstairs?"

Su instinctively withdrew his voice. He bit his lower lip and hesitated for a moment before saying, "... I forgot to call you. Do you want to drink it?"

There was a hint of pleading in his voice, and even she herself did not notice it. After a moment of silence, Huo Zhou finally replied in a cold tone, "Come on up, wait for me in the reception room."

After receiving permission, a flush appeared on Susu's originally pale face. Only after hanging up did she walk towards the company's entrance.

Huo Zhou didn't like her to appear in his company rashly. In the past, in order to give him a surprise, Susu had secretly come over to deliver food. However, what she received was a questioning and a cold war that lasted for a few days. Later on, she learned to be smart and would inform Huo Zhou in advance when she came. She would only enter this place after receiving his permission.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Huo Zhou's assistant, He Wen, standing there. It was obvious that he had received an order to come down to pick him up.

Susu followed him to the reception room. When she sat inside and waited for him, she was bored as she played with her phone. She looked at the clock on the wall, calculating how long it would be before Huo Zhou's meeting would end. She felt bored, so she simply followed the path she remembered and took the elevator to Huo Zhou's office.

Susu rarely came here. Only when she stood in front of the tightly shut "President's office" did she realize that the door was still a magnetic card door. After a moment of hesitation, she reached out and knocked on it.

Sure enough, there was no response.

Su sighed inwardly. Just as he was about to head downstairs and continue sitting in the reception room, he suddenly heard a sharp and clear sound of high heels hitting against the ground behind him. Then, a high-pitched female voice sounded. "What are you doing here?"

Su turned around to take a look. That woman was dressed differently from the others. She wasn't wearing a suit of the same style, but rather a bright red dress that was sticking to her waist in a flamboyant manner, revealing her beautiful figure. Her black hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall, and her eyes were fixed on Susu. There was a hint of a smile in her voice as she said, "Oh, it turns out to be President Huo's wife."

Her tone was extremely uncomfortable. Although there was a smile on her lips, it did not reach her eyes. Instead, there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone. Susu had never seen such a person before, so she naturally did not know who it was. She subconsciously asked in disgust, "Who are you?"

The woman didn't answer. She took a magnetic card in her hand and suddenly dripped it on the door. The door opened. Then she turned back and leaned against the door frame with a strange smile. "Mrs. Huo, you rarely come to the company. It's the first time that I've seen someone holding such a lovely thermos to deliver things to Mr. Huo."

Although the woman's words couldn't be picked out, her attitude made one feel uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts. Su was naturally not stupid enough to think that the other party really was praising her. She couldn't help but tighten the thermos bottle in her arms.

This strange woman who could open Huo Zhou's office door with a magnetic card in her hand, perhaps due to her sixth sense, made it impossible for her to have a good impression of her.

"Lin Yan." Seeing that she didn't answer, the woman made way for her as if she was very familiar with the layout on the opposite side. She walked to the desk with her bright red nails slowly sorting out the messy documents on the table. When she turned around and saw that she didn't speak, she smiled again. "Mr. Huo's life secretary."

Su Su had never seen a secretary like her who didn't wear formal clothes and had an ambiguous attitude. She could only say with a cold expression, "I understand. You can go out first. I want to wait for Ah Zhou here."

However, Lin Yan acted as if she didn't hear him and ignored her words. She just tidied up the table and picked up the suit beside her.

"Sorry, I can help you with this dress." Seeing that Lin Yan's hand was about to touch the dress, Susu suddenly said, as if there was a thorn in her heart. "You go out first."

However, Lin Yan smiled without saying anything. She looked at her playfully and said meaningfully, "Mrs. Huo, although you are Mr. Huo's wife, this is also my job. Don't want to replace it."

Su's expression changed. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a dripping sound behind him. The door opened, and a tall figure slowly walked in from outside. When his eyes landed on the two of them, his narrow and deep eyes suddenly narrowed, revealing a handsome and noble face. One couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.

On the other hand, Lin Yan was the first to greet him. "President Huo."

Huo Zhou nodded slightly. Only then did his gaze fall on the small figure beside him. He frowned slightly and said, "Didn't I ask you to wait in the reception room? What are you doing here?"

Before Susu could explain, Lin Yan interrupted her with a sweet smile. She smiled at Huo Zhou and said, "President Huo, you can have a chat with Mistress Huo. I'll go out first."

With her permission, she suddenly turned around, pointed at the suit beside her, and asked Susu, "Mrs. Huo, can you give me what belongs to me?"

Susu's face was a little ugly and she was almost speechless. Lin Yan seemed to be implying something, but she had no time to take care of it. After she left, she nervously looked into Huo Zhou's eyes and called out, "Honey."

Huo Zhou looked at her unhappily, "Why did you come here today?"

"I'll bring you chicken soup." For some reason, Susu suddenly didn't want to reveal the decorated thermos bottle, so she could only laugh dryly. "I'll do it. I have something to tell you."

He did come to the company to tell him a piece of news.

However, before Susu could finish her sentence, she saw Huo Zhou raise his hand impatiently and glance at the time. His tone was concise as he said, "I still have a meeting in ten minutes. If there's anything you need to say, we can talk about it when we get home."

Su Su's heart sank to the bottom. She subconsciously wanted to catch up, but she didn't even manage to grab a piece of Huo Zhou's clothes. Her face was pale and she wanted to say something, but she only heard Huo Zhou turn around and say softly. His voice was as cold as ice on a cold day.

"Susu, can you be more obedient?"

Su's heart suddenly contracted. He almost couldn't maintain the fake expression on his face, so he could only release a rigid laugh. His fingers moved back a bit, and then he nodded his head that was almost undetectable.

Huo Zhou's gaze fell on her pale face. In the end, he couldn't bear it, but in the end, he steeled his heart and tried to persuade her, "Let's talk about it when we get home."

This time, he really had a meeting to attend.

Susu's face was as pale as paper. She squeezed out a smile and gave him a considerate look. She nodded and said, "Alright, let's go home first."

Huo Zhou patted her hand, turned around mercilessly, and disappeared in Su Su's teary eyes.

Inside the warm room, he could also wear a shirt and work in a room that was ten degrees below zero. Su covered the chicken soup that had been carefully warming in his arms with his hands. However, it was still slowly, slowly, and impossible to reverse. It completely became ice-cold.

Today was the first day of their marriage.
