An Ran looked at Duan Qun’s facial expression with satisfaction. She knew that she had successfully angered him.
“I suggest that you two don’t do anything to hurt my family again, or I won’t let you off!”
An Ran walked toward the door right after she had warned Duan Qun and Tao Ya.
She had just closed the door when she turned around and bumped into Huo Qing.
“Ah… It hurts.”
An Ran covered her head and saw that it was Huo Qing
“Why are you here?!” An Ran was shocked.
She thought, “Did he hear everything I said just now? I just said that I liked him and even praised him for his good looks…”
“Is your head alright?” Huo Qing gently rubbed An Ran’s head.
“I was worried about you, so I came over to take a look. I heard what you said just now, and… I’m very glad.” Huo Qing’s face was full of smiles.
An Ran lowered her head as if she was looking for a hole so that she could climb into it immediately.
“Uh… I only said that to Duan Qun just now to anger him. Don’t take it seriously. I didn’t want to drag you into this, but he mentioned you first…”
“But I already took it seriously.” Huo Qing’s facial expression immediately turned cold.
“You…” An Ran was really awkward now. On the one hand, she was very sorry that she had used Huo Qing as a shield. On the other hand, when she heard Huo Qing say “I already took it seriously,” she felt a little shy.
She did not really like him, so why did he take it seriously?
Thinking back to the time they had spent together lately, Huo Qing seemed to treat her a little differently from others. However, An Ran did not think about it like that at all.
She had just broken off her engagement, and there were many things at home and the company waiting for her to resolve. She did not have the energy or time to think about matters of love right now.
Although An Ran knew that Huo Qing was very outstanding, there were many times when she thought that she was not good enough for him. An Ran had always thought that there would be a really good lady who would be good enough for Huo Qing, but that lady would not be her.

“Let’s go to the company first. I have something to tell you later,” Huo Qing broke the awkward silence first.

They went back to the company in a car to continue working on the contract.
It was initially very quiet in the car.
“Rumble, rumble, rumble…”
An Ran immediately covered her stomach.
Although she had just eaten, she had also used up a lot of energy berating the scumbag, so her stomach could not help but growl.
“Are you hungry? Let’s go and eat something first.” Huo Qing turned around and drove to the restaurant.
“Sure.” An Ran did not turn down his suggestion as she had always adhered to the principle of never going hungry if she could be full.
Soon, they arrived at the restaurant. An Ran did not stand on ceremony with Huo Qing and ordered a bunch of her favorite food.
Huo Qing totally softened as he watched her grab big bites.
“Mm… Why aren’t you eating? Join me.” An Ran stuffed a mouthful of dessert into her mouth and asked Huo Qing to eat with her.
“You can have it all. I’m not hungry.”
Huo Qing saw some residue of the dessert on the corner of her mouth and reached out to wipe it off.
“…” An Ran flushed.
She thought to herself, “Why couldn’t he just tell me that? Why must he wipe it off with his hands? How awkward was that?”
“An Ran, we have to go on a business trip for the new project. Let’s go together.”

Huo Qing also had a personal motive for inviting An Ran to go on a business trip together. He wanted to spend more time with her. Although he had yet to confess his feelings, the way he acted lately had been very obvious.
When An Ran heard about the business trip, she thought it would not be appropriate for a man and a woman to go on a business trip alone. Moreover, her mother was still in the hospital and needed someone to take care of her, so she rejected him.
Huo Qing tried to persuade An Ran, “This is the first project of the An Corporate Group that the Huo Corporate Group invests in. As the representative of the An Corporate Group, you should go. I’ll arrange for someone to take care of Auntie. You don’t have to worry about her.”
An Ran immediately agreed upon hearing him mention the An Corporate Group.
They went home to pack up the things they needed for the business trip after the meal.
