"I'll pretend I didn't hear anything … You know that I've always been indifferent. I don't meddle in other people's business." Jiang Xiaowei smiled.
"Yes, that's what you said …"
After dinner with Xiaowei, Huo Mien went back to work.
Mo Xue 'er's release on bail surprised her.
After all, these were all people who had interacted with her before … It didn't matter if they were friends or foes, their ending was tragic.
– In the afternoon –
Huo Mien had a meeting to discuss the new real estate development. Bella prepared the documents and followed him into the meeting room.
Then, Bella quietly walked out and waited outside the door.
"President Huo is in a meeting … Director Jing," Bella immediately reminded Zhixin when she saw him walk over.
"Oh, I'm not here for my sister. I'm here for you."
"What is it, Director Jing?" Bella was always so cautious and conservative.
"This is for you …" Zhixin handed her a delicate handbag.
"What … is this?" Bella froze for a second.
"Your birthday is today, right? I wanted to treat you to dinner, but … your boyfriend is coming, so I had to give you a present …"
"You don't have to be so polite." Bella was a bit embarrassed.
"Take it … We're so close now. You've been taking care of my sister for so long … I'm very grateful."
Before Bella could say anything, Jing Zhixin stuffed the present into her hands.
Then, he turned around and left …
"Hey, Director Jing …"
Jing Zhixin was conflicted. He shouldn't have pursued her after knowing that she had a boyfriend.
However, since he already prepared the present, he should give it to her. It was good to be a good colleague and friend.
Bella held the paper bag with a complicated expression on her face …
When Huo Mien's meeting ended, it was already 5 PM. Night came really early in the north wind.
At 5 PM, it was completely dark and nothing could be seen. The lights outside the building flickered.
"President Huo … I see that you're still busy today. Do you want to work overtime?" Bella asked.
"No, everyone's tired. Just get off work on time."
"Okay."
Huo Mien took out a dark red brocade box and handed it to her.
"Bella, this is for you."
"President Huo …" Bella was surprised.
"Happy birthday." Huo Mien smiled.
"You … still remember?" Bella was touched. Ever since she became Huo Mien's assistant, her boss would always prepare a birthday present for her every year. It had already been three years. This year, she was so busy that she thought Huo Mien had forgotten about it.
"How could I forget? I remember it every year. Open it and take a look. I personally chose the gift."
Bella carefully opened the brocade box. Inside was a silver-white brooch in the shape of a swan. It was very beautiful.
The eye of the swan was set with a very large and bright diamond, sparkling.
"Isn't … isn't this GK Jewelry's new luxury collection? Oh my god, it's too expensive … President Huo, I don't want it."
Bella was shocked. This female brooch was a new design that was released half a month ago.
The price of a single piece was more than forty thousand … because the diamonds were very expensive and the craftsmanship was very delicate.
"It's not expensive. You've worked hard for a year … this is nothing. Take it."
Under Huo Mien's insistence, Bella nervously accepted the gift.
"I was going to treat you to dinner tonight, but Yang said that your boyfriend will be here with you. So, I decided to make it up to you another day …"
"Thank you, President Huo. That was my plan, but he's busy today and can't come. I'll eat at home. My parents cooked for me."
"He's not coming? How can he not come on such an important day? "Huo Mien probed.
