My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day - Chapter 375:
Chapter 375: 375, so charming and enticing
As the meeting had not yet begun, people from the other side were also making light-hearted conversation.
“No wonder they say, even a bunny can bite when cornered.”
“Turns out, Young Master Chu is just like Boss Huo, they both love having pets”
“Boss Huo’s German Shepard is called KO, right?”
Chu Xiuhuang laughed, “Yes, and the name of this little bunny I have at home is Pao Pao.”
“Pao Pao?” Shen Bingbing thought, isn’t that a cute name?
The next second, Chu Xiuhuang’s voice echoed again with a malicious tone, “Yes, I really enjoy playing it at home.”
‘Pffft!1 Ji Jie burst into laughter as he understood the joke.
The others also…
“cough,cough,cough!”
They were struggling to suppress their laughter.
Several women in the room were blushing with embarrassment.
Only Shi Huan maintain a poker face, seemingly immune to it all.
“I think you’ll have more fun sleeping at home.” Huo Jingshen shot him an icy glare.
“Nah.” Chu Xiuhuang continued the banter, “I think it’s more fun discussing Pao Pao with you, big brother.”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
Everyone:
A brief silence ensued.
“Let’s start.” With a handsome face, Huo Jingshen announced stoically.
Only then did Chu Xiuhuang stop poking fun and sit properly.
Just by looking, he seemed serious enough.
Shi Huan didn’t have time to care about anything else, she put all her focus into the meeting.
Today, since Chu Xiuhuang specifically forbade bringing assistants, Shi Huan was required to do all the proposal, discussion, and note-taking work.
After an hour-long meeting, her throat was already hoarse from speaking.
Finally, at the close of the meeting, she picked up the tea in front of her, took several gulps, then got up, “Boss Huo, I will collect all the issues and discuss possible solutions when I return to the company. By tomorrow morning at the latest, I will send an email to your inbox.”
“There’s no need to rush.” Huo Jingshen glanced at Chu Xiuhuang, “After all, tomorrow is the weekend.”
Shi Huan startled, then nodded, “Okay, thank you, Boss Huo.”
Huo Jingshen slightly nodded, and left quickly.
Chu Xiuhuang got up and followed.
Shen Bingbing wanted to follow too, but Chu Xiuhuang suddenly stopped and told Shi Huan, “Wait for me in the car.”
“Alright, Young Master Chu.”
Shen Bingbing helplessly followed Shi Huan out.

Upon entering the office…
“Big bro, quickly, wet wipes, quickly give me wet wipes.”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
While Chu Xiuhuang was meticulously wiping his handsome fingers clean with wet wipes, Huo Jingshen spoke in a low tone filled with disdain, “You can leave now.”
You came to my office just to clean your fingers?
After Chu Xiuhuang finished wiping his fingers and saw his clean hands resume their previous state, he let out a sign of relief.
Tossing the used wet wipes away, he pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Huo Jingshen, his eyes fixed on him.
Huo Jingshen: “…”
His deep eyes narrowed, his expression growing darker.
Just as he was about to lose his temper…
“Big bro.” Chu Xiuhuang broke the silence, “What do you think about… office romance?”
Huo Jingshen coldly glared at him, “Which poor female employee has caught your eye?”
Considering Chu Xiuhuang’s flirtatious nature, although he had been behaving for a while due to his blind date, still…
You can’t change a dog’s eating habits!
Naturally, Huo Jingshen assumed he had taken a liking to a female employee of Huangyou.
As expected.
Chu Xiuhuang admitted, “Indeed, it is a female employee.”
But…
Having a liking for?
No, no, no.
He was just fantasizing that’s all.
Huo Jingshen got up without hesitation, “I’m not interested in your personal matters.”
“But I want to talk about it with you.” Chu Xiuhuang licked his lips, “After all, everyone else is a bachelor. Although you don’t have much romance experience, you’ve had many scandals in the past, and you’ve met all sorts of women. Plus you’re married now and have a trophy wife, your experience is just too vast… Big bro, where are you going?”
Huo Jingshen grabbed his car keys and jacket and said arrogantly, “Picking my wife up from school.”
“Holy shit, why are you picking her up from school so early?”
“Taking my wife’s classmates out for dinner tonight.”
“Going out to dinner with students?” Chu Xiuhuang burst into laughter, “Stop joking, big bro. A 30-year-old CEO like you going out for dinner with female college students? The generation gap is huge, what can you possibly talk about with them? Do you understand what young girls like these days? Don’t scare them off.”
“A wifeless bachelor like you wouldn’t understand.” Huo Jingshen said, nonchalantly. He then opened the door and walked out.
Chu Xiuhuang:

When they reached the underground parking lot, Huo Jingshen coldly drove off, while Chu Xiuhuang walked over to a black Cayenne car nearby.
He opened the car door and sat in, “Xiaohuan, what do you think of office romance?”
Shi Huan didn’t say anything, she simply gestured with her eyes.
By then Shen Bingbing’s sweet voice was coming from the back, “Young Master Chu.”
Chu Xiuhuang’s temples pulsed twice.
Damn it.
Why is this flirty woman still here?
Shen Bingbing sweetly explained, “Something came up at home for one of my subordinates, so I need to return to the company. That’s why I’m catching a lift with Secretary Shi.”
Shi Huan chuckled without humor at her candid lie.
Chu Xiuhuang leaned back casually, “In that case, Secretary Shi, you can first drop Miss Shen off at the company, then head to my house.”
Shen Bingbing was ecstatic, she didn’t think twice about it.
Being a secretary naturally meant catering to all aspects of professional and personal life.
Moreover, Shi Huan was not at all attractive. Her constant old-maid attire of black suit and black-framed glasses was enough to scare off ninety-nine percent of men.
“Mr. Chu.” swiftly scrolling through her phone, Shen Bingbing asked, “Are you interested in the calligraphy and painting exhibition?”
She had quickly performed an online search. The Chu family were renowned for their love of literature, Chu Xiuhuang’s twin sister was a famous figure in the world of traditional Chinese painting, and Chu Xiuhuang himself was a double PhD in business and literature.
If she wanted to get closer to Chu Xiuhuang, starting from his areas of interest would be the best…
“Not interested.” Chu Xiuhuang rejected coldly.
Shen Bingbing hurriedly continued scrolling, “There seems to be a museum exhibition recently, and a drama performance as well…”
“Stop the car.” Chu Xiuhuang suddenly spoke up.
Shi Huan immediately pulled over.
Chu Xiuhuang reached out to open the car door and got out directly.
Shen Bingbing was surprised, “Mr. Chu, why are you…”
The car door was slammed shut.
Shi Huan quickly drove off again.
Shen Bingbing was still a bit dumbfounded, “Secretary Shi, why did Mr. Chu suddenly get out of the car?”
Shi Huan tone was placid, “Mr. Chu likes to have a drink after finishing his work.”
“Oh.” Shen Bingbing felt absolutely deflated, “Secretary Shi, Mr. Chu should be at the press conference as well, right?”
“Yes.”
Chu Xiuhuang had said that he was going to be in the office from nine to five every day recently. Since that was the case, he would definitely participate in important company events.
So Shen Bingbing immediately cheered up again.
When she got back to the company, she practically walked in while humming a tune.
“Bingbing, what’s got you so happy?”
The one who asked the question was Qiao Zixin.
She had intentionally tried to meet with Huo Jingshen last time, but instead got burnt by cigarette and bitten by a dog on her foot.
Not to mention being scolded by Su Yunrong for a long period, she even took a week off due to the injury and then continually got vaccinated against dog diseases at the epidemic prevention station. The project with Huo Yuan that she and Shen Bingbing were in charge of was now handled by someone else.
She was a newcomer, naturally, she didn’t dare to express her opinion too much. Today, Shen Bingbing took another subordinate to see Huo Yuan and she had no means to do anything about it. Seeing Shen Bingbing looking so happy, she could only conclude that something good must have happened during the meeting.
Once Shen Bingbing had put her bag down, she immediately pulled Qiao Zixin all the way to the pantry.
Once the door was closed, she excitedly said, “I saw Mr. Chu today.”
“Mr. Chu?” Qiao Zixin felt disappointed, thinking it was something about Huo Jingshen.
“Yes, the eldest young master of the Chu family, he’s really handsome up close, and I want to pursue him.” Shen Bingbing exclaimed excitedly, “For men of his reputation, if there is a problem with the woman, they will easily get her pregnant. As long as I get a chance to sleep with him, wouldn’t the position of the young missus of the Chu family be mine?”
Qiao Zixin deliberately poured cold water on her, “Mr. Chu has had so many girlfriends before, but no one has ever entered the Chu family’s door. He’s ruthless when he dumps people and never shows mercy to beauties…” “Nonsense!” Shen Bingbing glared at her, “Those are all made up by the media. After interacting with Mr. Chu today, I feel that he’s very approachable. After the meeting ended, he even had his secretary drive me back to the company.”
Qiao Zixin: “…”
” If he didn’ t have any feelings for me, why would he be so considerate?” Shen Bingbing felt more and more pleased as she thought about it.
As long as she gets a chance, it’s only a matter of time before she enters the Chu family’s door.
Would she still need to go to work every day in the future?
Or even have to please those ugly and old men for the sake of her performance? “Zixin, You’re just too indecisive! If you ask me, aren’t you interested in Mr. Huo? Quickly look for an opportunity to get on him!” Shen Bingbing nudged her, hinting non-stop, “Even if he doesn’t want to take responsibility afterward, you’ll still benefit a lot, right? After all, you slept with him, so it will not be a disadvantage for you!”
Qiao Zixin: “…”

Elsewhere, Huo Jingshen drove to Nancheng University.
After sending the young girl a WeChat message, he got out of the car, lit a cigarette, and casually leaned against the front of the car to wait.
It was freezing in December. Passersby rushed past, each of them dressed in bloated, heavy cotton jackets, wrapped up like dumplings.
Only he, relaxed and casual, wore a black coat. His tall and upright figure, distinct handsome features, mature and restrained demeanor, coupled with his luxury car…
Like a natural shining entity, he attracted the gazes and whispers of the passing female students.
Finally, a few girls came out from inside. His dark eyes immediately focused on the one in the middle.
Su Wanwan wore a thick white down jacket that reached her knees, paired with denim jeans and pink snow boots. She wore a red hat and a red scarf, looking a bit cute in her chunkiness.
Huo Jingshen raised an eyebrow, immediately triggering a gasp from the girls.
As he walked towards them with his long strides, the whispered discussions became more excited.
“Wanwan, your boyfriend is so handsome!”
“He even drove a luxury car to pick us up!”
“Oh no, he’s coming over.”
“I’m so nervous!”
“Is he really inviting us for dinner?”
Su Wanwan: “…”
She had no idea what had gone wrong with Huo Jingshen, suddenly wanting to invite her classmates for a meal!
They had already agreed that she would spend the next month helping Mo Weiyi study for exams.
While she was in her afternoon study session, he suddenly called, saying he wanted to thank her classmates for helping clear up the forum posts last time. Please! That incident had already happened a month ago!
Also, because Huo Jingshen had specifically instructed at the time, the disciplinary notice later issued by the school only said that Lin Qiao and Zhou Xiaohan were punished because of viciously defamatory postings. There was no disclosure of Su Wanwan’s marriage.
There was no news about it in the newspapers either.
So apart from those present that day, the whole school thought Su Wanwan had unjustly been splashed with dirty water and had her reputation restored. They had no clue about the inside story.
Su Wanwan felt this was quite alright. However, from that day onwards, those two girls in her class started paying her compliments and showing their goodwill.
Other than Mo Weiyi, she didn’t have many friends at school. She couldn’t possibly invite the boys for the meal Huo Jingshen was hosting. Afraid that Zhao Qianqian would feel uncomfortable alone, she had to include those two girls.
Unexpectedly, the moment they heard about the dinner, they spent the entire afternoon in their dormitory carefully dressing up.
Even though it was freezing today, with the outdoor temperature close to zero, the two wore dresses, heavy makeup, and stilettos, trembling in the cold wind…
When Huo Jingshen approached, their trembles intensified.
The three girls had little contact with people in society. Huo Jingshen’s powerful identity and standing were obvious. Combined with his aura, their inhibitions…
All these factors together made them uneasy and wary. They didn’t dare to speak out of turn.
Until…
“Baby.”
As Huo Jingshen said this, Su Wanwan’s legs went weak without reason.
The three girls, on the other hand, had their eyes wide open in shock.
What the hell!
Baby?
When Mr. Huo called her that, his tone was deep, magnetic and gentle, making their hearts flutter. They were publicly displaying affection…
Huo Jingshen had already taken Su Wanwan’s little hand and spoke in a low voice, “Aren’t you going to introduce me first, dear?”
After a couple of coughs, Su Wanwan had no choice but to raise her hand and introduce her friends one by one, “This is Zhao Qianqian, this is Li Xiaolin, and this is Wu Ying, all classmates from my class.”
