“Alright, I want to see if Huo Corporation can survive without you, Huo Tingyang. Starting from tomorrow, you’ll be the vice president of Huo Corporation.”
Vice president? Although Xian Yaping was somewhat dissatisfied with the word ‘vice,’ it was still better than nothing, and she immediately beamed with joy.
“Won’t you hurry up and thank Grandpa?”
Huo Tingyang hadn’t even recovered from the news and was stunned for a while before he spoke:
“Thank you, Grandpa…”
Han Yongmei sneered and stood up to leave without even greeting anyone, seizing such a good opportunity—of course, Xian Yaping couldn’t let it pass and shamelessly blocked Han Yongmei’s way.
“Are you angry, sister? However it is, isn’t it too much to leave without even saying hello to the old man?”
“Don’t wrongly claim relations, who is your sister?”
Watching Han Yongmei leave in a huff, Huo Tingxiao decided not to stay either.
Before leaving, he didn’t forget to congratulate Huo Tingyang.
“Congratulations, Vice President.”
Huo Tingyang, of course, knew Huo Tingxiao was deliberately mocking him.
He swore that he would seize this opportunity, take root in Huo Corporation, and not let anyone drive him away!
Mu Lan was completely unaware of what Huo Tingxiao was scheming.
“Huo Tingxiao, what on earth…”
“Was today’s drama entertaining?”
Huo Tingxiao looked at her and suddenly asked.
Mu Lan was silent for a while, then shook her head.
“I… I don’t really like it. It seems like my time can only be spent fighting with these irrelevant people. People have limited energy; it should be spent on worthwhile things.”
Huo Tingxiao looked at her.
“I just don’t want you to be wronged, I want to teach them a lesson, to let them know how important you are to me.”
Mu Lan pursed her lips and suddenly felt that Huo Tingxiao was like a boy from the next class who tries hard to chase the girl he has a crush on.

“Huo Tingxiao, I’m starting to believe you’ve never been in a relationship.”
“What?”
“Love doesn’t need proof. It’s revealed in your eyes and all your actions.
You don’t need to try so hard, Huo Tingxiao. You still…don’t quite understand what love is.
Well… maybe, I don’t quite understand it either.”
When Mu Lan said this, her emotions were not very turbulent, yet they made Huo Tingxiao’s heart tremble.
“Mu Lan…”
“It’s getting late; I’m going back to rest, and you should sleep early too.”
“Good night.”
“Yeah, good night.”
After bidding farewell to Mu Lan, Huo Tingxiao went back to his room and suffered from insomnia.
He had thought that she would be very happy with the surprises he had organized.
After all, these were the ‘innovations’ he had expended a lot of effort to search for online, but Mu Lan seemed… not to like them very much.
She said that love doesn’t need to be proven, but should naturally flow.
Had he gone overboard, causing her to feel repulsed?
Huo Tingxiao felt that guessing a woman’s thoughts was harder than multi-billion dollar business deals.
The next day.
Just as Mu Lan had gotten out of bed, there was a hurried knock on the door.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she opened the door to find Gu Xiaoman standing there with a cheeky grin.
“Why are you so early?”
“It’s you who’s late, what time do you think it is? Hurry up and get ready for breakfast.”
“Can’t we just order room service in our room?”
Mu Lan turned around, threw herself onto the bed with a thud.
She wanted to sleep a little longer…
“I came over because I wanted to gossip with you, did you hear that Sheng Xueqin fell flat on her face yesterday?”
The tone of Gu Xiaoman’s voice conveyed an uncontrollable delight.
“Did you hear that from Grandpa Shen Zichu?”
“Hehe, it was Grandpa Shen Zichu who told Shen Zichu, then Shen Zichu came to tell me, and I almost died laughing.
What was that sly move from Sheng Xueqin, hahahahaha…”
Hearing Gu Xiaoman’s cackle, Mu Lan put her hands over her ears.
“Gu Xiaoman, you’re disturbing the peace. Your laughter is really like a demonic possession, quickly have your Dean Shen treat you! Oh, but your Dean Shen is getting on in years, nowhere near your youthful invincibility.”
The moment Gu Xiaoman heard this, she ran out of steam.
Mu Lan felt this wasn’t Gu Xiaoman’s style at all, shouldn’t she be fervently defending Dean Shen?
“What’s wrong? Why aren’t you speaking?”
“We are still platonic, how would I know if he’s old or not.”
Tone tinged with resentment, Mu Lan stared in disbelief.
“What? You two haven’t… done that yet?”
“No, he said to wait until the official wedding and after we officially live together, then to do that…”
Observing the melancholic look on Gu Xiaoman’s face, it was clear she was quite upset.
“Is your Dean Shen really… irrational? A beauty like you standing right before him and he’s not even anxious?
Is he that traditional? What era are we in? Dean Shen has truly surprised me.”
Gu Xiaoman sighed.
“Ah well, it doesn’t really matter, might as well go along with him, it’s no big deal.”
Mu Lan shook her head, disagreeing.
“How about this, take a bold risk and try seducing him a bit?”
Gu Xiaoman looked troubled.
“With this turnip-like face, seducing? Please spare ‘beauty’ these two words, beg you, always giving me bad ideas…”
Mu Lan rolled her eyes.
“Have some confidence in yourself. Once we disembark, I’ll take you shopping, it’s exactly what I need to unwind, yesterday’s drama was just too exhausting.
To my left, Pei Zhao, to my right, Sheng Xueqin, my head hurts.”
“Alright, no problem, I might not be good at other things, but I can do shopping, just the right time to test if Shen Zichu’s supplementary card works well.”
The two women quickly rushed to the shopping mall as soon as they got off the boat, leaving Huo Tingxiao, who had wanted to ask Mu Lan out for a meal, rejected and resigned to return to his office to bury himself in work.
Mu Lan led Gu Xiaoman to a lingerie store and quickly identified a little leopard print three-piece set.
“It all rests on this one effort, darling, with this little leopard print on, you will be—”
“A cavewoman?”
“How did you end up a cavewoman? The sexiest creature! A woman needs to be beautiful inside and out, got it?”
Gu Xiaoman shook her head, feeling it was a bit too over, and wanted to back out.
“Let’s drop it, no more thinking about these shady tricks, I think a comfy cotton set is better.”
“How wonderful is this set? How wild? Don’t you know somehow women are inherently beautiful? That’s why, woman, be bold and be yourself, okay?”
Hearing her speak so confidently, Gu Xiaoman retorted:
“Have you worn it?”
“… Haven’t eaten pork, haven’t seen a pig run?”
Gu Xiaoman realized, turns out she was preaching without practice.
“How about this, one set each, I buy it if you buy it, huh? How does that sound, isn’t that sincere of me?”
This was clearly a trap, Mu Lan was wondering, should she jump in or not?
