The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1250 - 1218: A Woman Who Doesn’t Make Sense

Just as Zhou Yuanchao came out, he heard Assistant Wu’s words and immediately took the phone: "Sister-in-law, what happened at home?"

"Anyway, tell Brother Yingjie right now to come back, there’s something important at home," He Tiantian said. Zhou Yuanchao was much easier to talk to than that Assistant Wu.

That woman, thinking she’s superior just because she became Huo Yingjie’s assistant!

Once the family matter is settled, the first thing to do is transfer that Assistant Wu to another position.

What a joke, unable to prioritize, obviously has ulterior motives.

"Okay, sister-in-law, wait a moment, I’ll go inform the boss right away," Zhou Yuanchao hurriedly agreed, hung up the phone, and looked up at Assistant Wu not far away.

If it weren’t an urgent matter, sister-in-law would never be so nervous.

"Assistant Wu, from now on when you receive a call from sister-in-law, no matter what the boss is doing, please inform Chief Engineer Huo immediately," Zhou Yuanchao said sternly. This Assistant Wu was sent by a certain bigshot, even the boss has to give way a little.

It’s probably their indulgence that made this Assistant Wu somewhat arrogant and presumptuous, senseless.

Also, the way Assistant Wu looks at the boss seems a bit off, probably has some thoughts about the boss.

"But Chief Engineer Huo is attending a seminar, it’s very important," Assistant Wu argued, "Everyone knows the rules of Chief Engineer Huo, I, a junior employee, naturally cannot break them."

Zhou Yuanchao squinted his eyes and sneered, "Heh, I hope you’re not having delusions!"

After that, Zhou Yuanchao no longer paid attention to Assistant Wu’s displeased face.

Assistant Wu was called out on the spot by Zhou Yuanchao and felt extremely annoyed, "How can Zhou Yuanchao say that!"

Deep down, she indeed had some thoughts about Chief Engineer Huo.

Since the first time she saw Huo Yingjie, she fell for this refined and handsome man.

She never knew that a man working in research could be so attractive and dress so well!

Leading a life that’s very composed, refined!

She likes men who are capable, come from similar family backgrounds, handsome, and have that noble charm!

Especially tasteful.

Even if she’s more than a decade younger than Huo Yingjie, she doesn’t see a problem, becoming increasingly fanciful.

Zhou Yuanchao went into the conference room and whispered a few words to Huo Yingjie.

Huo Yingjie raised his eyebrows, his expression grave, and then nodded, "Okay, I got it."

Then, he packed up the folders by his hand, turned to the people in the meeting, and solemnly said, "Today’s meeting ends here, if there are any issues, everyone can continue discussing. We will resume the meeting in three days."

Since its establishment, He Tiantian had never once asked Huo Yingjie to leave work early to go home.

Huo Yingjie believed that something definitely happened at home, and it was quite tricky.

Suppressing the panic in his heart, Huo Yingjie hurried to his office, put away the files, locked the safe, and prepared to rush home as soon as possible.

When Assistant Wu saw Huo Yingjie arrive, she quickly made tea and brought it in.

Huo Yingjie said to Zhou Yuanchao who followed, "I have something to deal with. For the work at the institute, I’ll need Deputy Chief Engineer Zhou to take care of it. If there are decisions that can’t be finalized, wait until I return."

"Chief Engineer Huo, our schedule is so tight!" Assistant Wu made some tea and sashayed in, revealing what she thought was an attractive face.

Huo Yingjie squinted his eyes and looked at Assistant Wu, saying, "First, in the future, you must knock before entering my office, even if you are my assistant, it’s the same; second, I don’t like to drink tea brewed by others; third, I am the chief engineer of this institute, not you. If there’s work, it’s my business, not yours, I know how to manage."

Huo Yingjie’s words were both harsh and biting!

Assistant Wu, hearing this, flew into a rage, "We’ll get in trouble if we fail to complete the project."

"That’s my concern," Huo Yingjie sneered, "You’re no longer allowed in my office, otherwise you’ll be charged with stealing secrets! Deputy Chief Engineer Zhou, Assistant Wu is not suitable to be my assistant, please arrange for her to work in a different position."

Zhou Yuanchao knew the boss was angry, but this woman brought it on herself.

Thinking she has a backer in the military, trying to boss everyone around, dream on!

"You’ll regret this." Assistant Wu was so angry she couldn’t speak properly; she had never been treated this way before.

Huo Yingjie didn’t even give a glance to Assistant Wu, and commanded sharply, "Carry out my orders immediately!"

After that, he left in a hurry.

"Yes, Chief Engineer Huo!" Zhou Yuanchao complied, "Assistant Wu, there’s a position available at the logistics department, pack your things, someone will take you there."

"You can’t do this to me," Assistant Wu said, "I was sent from above to supervise your work."

This Assistant Wu wouldn’t have been in a fix if she hadn’t said that, but hearing this, Zhou Yuanchao became even more angry.

This Assistant Wu, always claiming she’s here to supervise work from above, feigning knowledge, and blindly commanding!

Transferring her away from the core area will be safer.

If this woman still causes trouble, there will be a reason to get rid of her.

"Whether you can or not, it’s Chief Engineer Huo who has the final say," Zhou Yuanchao said, "You better pack your things quickly, or I’ll have to call the security guard to assist."

Thinking of being driven away, Assistant Wu felt very upset, but she also didn’t dare not to comply.

Being escorted away by security would be even more embarrassing.

She would be in trouble if she failed to complete the task; better be cautious.

Zhou Yuanchao got in the car and said to the driver Zhang Ning, "Zhang Ning, to the house, and make it fast."

"Yes!" Zhang Ning started the car, and Xie Wu vigilantly watched the surroundings.

They sped all the way and finally arrived at Maoer Alley in the shortest time.

When He Tiantian saw Huo Yingjie return, she quickly told him the whole story.

Huo Yingjie was astonished after hearing it.

A strange spirit was entangled with Xu Weiwei. He calculated a few times with his fingers and understood a bit.

That Fox Spirit has not yet transformed but has already possessed spiritual awareness.

However, the Spiritual Energy in the Human Realm is too sparse to allow her transformation. Thus, Xu Weiwei used a secret technique, killed a beautiful woman, and borrowed the body of that woman.

Xu Weiwei wanted revenge on the Huo Family but did not dare to come to Yanjing, so she set her sights on Huo Zheqian from Nanhu Province.

"Since Li Xian has already found out the truth, I’ll make a trip to Nanhu Province," Huo Yingjie quickly said, "This afternoon, I’ll have my doppelganger attend work at the institute, don’t worry."

He Tiantian nodded, "You better hurry, that woman has bewitched our uncle to the point of wanting a divorce; she must have lost her senses. If she can discard her old wife, there must be a lot of under-the-table power and money deals. You not only have to deal with Xu Weiwei and that Fox Spirit but also handle uncle’s affairs. If he’s really involved, it won’t just be a matter of job dismissal."

Removing Huo Zheqian would be easy, but it would inevitably cost the Huo Family dearly, and may even impact Huo Zhekun. freёweɓnovel.com
