Mengmeng shut down the computer, took her bag and was ready to leave. Seeing Su Mianmian still at her seat, she asked, “Mianmian, you’ll be late if you don’t leave now. Sister Mary said that the welcome party will start on time at eight o’clock.

To celebrate the three newcomers joining the company today, the secretary department was holding a welcome party tonight.

!!
Actually the welcome party just meant that everyone would get together for a meal followed by some singing.

“You go first, I’ll leave in a while.” Su Mianmian replied.

The reason that she didn’t dare leave was because she hadn’t reported to Uncle.

“See you later.”

After Mengmeng left, Su Mianmian got up and walked to Huo Ting’s office. When she was about to knock, the door suddenly opened.

Su Mianmian got a shock and took a step back.

Huo Ting looked at her with a blank expression on his face.

“Uncle, why did you come out and scare me?” She rubbed her chest, feeling a little guilty for some unknown reason.

Huo Ting looked at her and said indifferently, “Let’s go back.”

He was feeling a little unhappy. He had intended to ignore Little Lamb and make her not used to it so that she would come and find him, but she didn’t appear at all the whole day.

Huo Ting now had serious doubts on the strategy Chen Ce bought.

Playing hard to get doesn’t seem to work on Little Lamb?

Su Mianmian didn’t seem to hear the unhappiness in Huo Ting’s tone. She tugged at his arm and asked in an ingratiating manner, “Can I go home a little later tonight? The department colleagues organized a welcome party, and I want to go too.”

Hearing this, Huo Ting felt even more upset! You still want to go out and enjoy with other people? This is outrageous, what happened to putting your husband above all things?!

“Sure.”

“Really? That’s great!” Uncle is really easy to talk to after all.

Huo Ting said coldly, “Our family’s curfew is eight o’clock.”

Eight o’clock…she wouldn’t be able to make it even if she leaves immediately after drinking a glass of water.

“When did we have this?”

“Now.”

“…” Uncle, stop acting cute! She wanted to cry…

Su Mianmian couldn’t control the expression on her face. She pursed her lips, stretched out her hand and continued to tug at Huo Ting’s arm before saying coquettishly, “Uncle, I won’t be able to make any friends if I don’t go. And I won’t be able to blend into the company if I don’t make any friends.”

“Why do you need to make friends? Little Lamb, get your priorities right. Do you need me to remind you of your job details?” Huo Ting said unhappily. “You only need to serve me well, and other things have nothing to do with you.”

Su Mianmian was speechless when she thought of her job.

He should give her a slightly more meaningful job even if he wants to feed her?

As for those one hundred pages of likes and dislikes, she only did a rough scan and already felt that the credibility was extremely low.

Uncle obviously likes cakes, and his favorite is strawberry cake.

But such important information wasn’t even written on it.

Su Mianmian knew that she had to use the soft approach on Huo Ting.

She thought about it, gave a pitiful expression, and said in an ingratiating manner, “Dear, I promise that you will have a little surprise for your lunch and afternoon tea tomorrow. I’ve been thinking about this the whole of today.”

Huo Ting felt much better after hearing Su Mianmian’s words. He pretended not to care and said, “Actually I don’t care about all these. You should know that I can do with anything made by you.”

What? Uncle actually wants her to cook for him?

“You’re so stupid and can’t do anything well, so I had to ask Mary to assign you the easiest job.” See how thoughtful and understanding he is.

“Yes, yes.” Su Mianmian spoke with a forked tongue.

But she was complaining in her heart, this job isn’t easy at all, all right?

Seeing how obedient she was, Huo Ting’s anger was almost gone. After thinking about it, he asked, “Do you really want to go?”

Su Mianmian nodded hard.

“All right.” Huo Ting said kindly, “I’ll go with you.”

“…” Uncle, are you sure you wouldn’t scare everyone to death if you go?
