Chapter 168: His Assistant

Lu Mo shouted at Huo Xiaoran’s workplace, which was very unbecoming. Huo Xiaoran finally raised his head and glanced at her indifferently. Only then did Lu Mo shut up.

Qiao An followed behind the examiner and walked up to Huo Xiaoran.

The examiner taught Huo Xiaoran Qiao An’s written test paper. After Huo Xiaoran quickly browsed through the entire paper, his eyes revealed an imperceptible look of surprise.

He suddenly looked up. When he saw Qiao An, he was momentarily dazed.

The eagle’s sharp gaze seemed to penetrate Qiao An’s soul and see through her.

“Get out,” Huo Xiaoran said in a low voice.

With the passage of time, his voice was no longer as thin and gentle as before. Instead, it was filled with an oppressive aura.

Lu Mo looked at Qiao An smugly, but Qiao An did not move.

She wanted to shamelessly fight for a chance for herself.

After all, she had been preparing for so long. Just because he asked her to leave, would she become a quitter?

“He told you to go out, didn’t you hear it?” Lu Momo said.

Huo Xiaoran looked at Lu Mo. “Momo, go out.”

Lu Mo’s expression was colorful, and Qiao An smiled.

“Oh.” Lu Mo was as obedient as a puppy.

Huo Xiaoran looked at the examiner. The examiner understood and turned to leave.

At this moment, only Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran were left in the huge office.

There was an instant silence.

Qiao An forced herself to remain calm under Huo Xiaoran’s sharp gaze.

“Why do you want to be my assistant?” Huo Xiaoran asked.

Qiao An thought that there was no harm in flattering him. He raised his head and said with admiration, “CEO Huo is a legend in the capital. He defeated his peers in three years and became a leader. If I can be the CEO’s assistant, I will definitely learn a lot about business.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at her steadily. For some reason, he seemed to have seen Qiao An.

Actually, from the moment he saw her, he realized that Chen Sisi and Qiao An had similar eyebrows.

Now, Huo Xiaoran felt that Chen Sisi’s personality was very similar to Qiao An’s. Her personality was straightforward and she placed her desires in front of her.

Except she was definitely not Qiao An.

Qiao An would not worship him.

Huo Xiaoran realized that he was missing the shadow that should have been sealed and buried. He frowned in anger.

Qian An had been gone for three years. Three years of ignoring him, which showed how hard she was on him.

She had completely given up on him. He should have completely let go of her.

Huo Xiaoran looked at Chen Sisi and said, “You’re not suitable to be my assistant. Leave.”

Qiao An could probably see Huo Xiaoran’s hesitation at that moment. She asked him, “CEO Huo, I want to know the reason why I was eliminated?”

Huo Xiaoran stared at her deeply. “Because looking at you makes me think of an old friend.”

Qiao An seemed to see the piercing expression in his eyes. She wondered if he felt guilty or blamed himself when he thought of her now.

Qiao An said, “I heard that CEO Huo was a doctor before business. Then you must understand the principle of antibody immunity. If you want to completely forget her, why don’t you keep me by your side and take a few more glances? Perhaps I’ll help you gain immunity to your ex-girlfriend.”

Huo Xiaoran was amused by Qiao An’s playful words. He thought for a moment, took out the assistant’s contract from the drawer, and threw it to Qiao An. “Take a look. If there’s no problem, sign the contract.”

Qiao An read it very seriously. The clauses of the contract were very demanding and were in the CEO’s favor. This made Qiao An very angry, but she needed the job.

She could only bite the bullet and accept these unreasonable terms.

“Come to work tomorrow.”

“Yes.” Qiao An left happily.

News of Huo Xiaoran hiring a cute girl as his assistant instantly caused an uproar in the Huo family.

After all, all the beautiful girls in the Angel Group were forced in by Huo Zhou. His goal was to let Huo Xiaoran discover that other than Qiao An, there were many girls who were prettier, gentler, and more flirtatious than Qiao An.

However, three years had passed, and Huo Xiaoran was like an insulator. He didn’t have any feelings for those beautiful employees at all. Even his relationship with his girlfriend, Lu Mo, was neither close nor distant. If Lu Mo hadn’t taken the initiative to look for him, he would never have taken the initiative to look for Lu Mo.

Anyone could tell that President Huo was not interested in women.

Now, he had taken the initiative to hire a female assistant. This made Huo Zhou extremely excited.

That night, Huo Zhou came to Huo Xiaoran’s Heavenly Imperial Garden and conducted a soul interrogation.

“I heard that you hired a female assistant for the first time. Tell me quickly, what’s going on? Don’t you not need a female assistant?”

Huo Xiaoran suddenly took a sip of cold wine and said leisurely, “She looks very similar to her.”

“Her?” Huo Zhou was a little dumbfounded.

After being stunned for a long time, he came back to her senses. The her that Huo Xiaoran was talking about should be Qiao An.

Ever since Huo Xiaoran was hospitalized in the ICU three years ago and was discharged, he had never mentioned Qiao An again. He thought that he had forgotten about her, but he didn’t expect Huo Xiaoran to hide her in his heart.

Now that he saw a girl who looked like Qiao An, the love hidden deep in his heart began to overflow again.

“You haven’t let go of her?” Huo Zhou was very helpless.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Zhouzhou, I did something wrong and hurt her back then. How can I forget a girl I hurt deeply?”

Huo Zhou was speechless.

“In the past few years, you’ve been in the business world. The methods you used on those people are completely sinister. I thought that with your cold heart today, you should be able to be ruthless to Qiao An.”

“Isn’t it just a mistake after drinking? Xiaoran, in the eyes of others, it’s Qiao An’s blessing to be doted on by you. She’s the one who’s not satisfied.”

Huo Xiaoran smiled bitterly. “Qiao An is different from the others.”

“How are they different?” In fact, in Huo Zhou’s eyes, there was only skin and beauty in the world.

Although Qiao An was beautiful, with Huo Xiaoran’s status, he could totally find a girl more beautiful than her. He really didn’t know why Huo Xiaoran was competing with Qiao An.

“She’s as important to me as my mother,” Huo Xiaoran said faintly.

Huo Zhou was dumbfounded.

At this moment, he finally understood that Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An would probably never be able to escape each other.

“In my opinion, you just didn’t get her. As the saying goes, what you didn’t get will always cause you to be restless. Since you’re lucky enough to recruit a girl who looks like her, try to transfer your feelings for Qiao An to Chen Sisi. If you get Chen Sisi, you might not find Qiao An fragrant anymore.”

Huo Xiaoran glanced at Huo Zhou.

He was not a casanova who could sleep with any woman.
