Chapter 478 - Since You’re So Young, I Assume You’re Single (1/2)

“I’m here for her.”

Huo Jinyao’s words made everyone in the office fix their eyes on Su Qingsang.

Su Qingsang immediately felt extremely awkward. What was Huo Jinyao doing? It was only her first day working there.

Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao with an awkward expression, but he seemed not to notice the embarrassment on her face.

He made a few steps forward and walked up to Su Qingsang. Then, he put the box in his hand on the desk in the middle of the office.

“It’s my first time visiting you guys. I didn’t prepare any gifts for all of you, but I brought some desserts from Xiangshan. I hope you like it.”

Xiangshan. Upon hearing the word, the people in the office had their eyes glowing.

Xiangshan was a grand hotel. They did not only sell delicious food but also very famous desserts. It was said that one of the ancestors of the dessert chef in Xiangshan had made desserts for the royals long ago.

Later on, he had joined Xiangshan and made some rules. They could make three types of desserts each day, and twenty portions each kind only.

Xiangshan was opened from morning till night. Countless people would wait in line to purchase their desserts every day.

The desserts from Xiangshan needed to be ordered in advance. Surprisingly, Su Qingsang’s husband brought her colleagues desserts from Xiangshan on her first day. He must have had planned all this before already.

Su Qingsang had only been in Rong City for a short time, but Huo Jinyao had brought her and her family to Xiangshan once already, so she surely knew how the place operated.

What on earth was Huo Jinyao doing?

She couldn’t help but glare at him again and again. However, Huo Jinyao ignored the look in her eyes, but looked at the others and said, “good to see you all, I’m Huo Jinyao, Su Qingsang’s husband.”

“Nice to meet you.”

“Hi.”

The girls in the office stared at Huo Jinyao. The relatively older ones, like the director, didn’t do that as they were all married. They even had grown-up children.

Unlike them, a few young nurses had their eyes fixed on Huo Jinyao, filled with astonishment. Huo Jinyao made eye contact with the nurses and recognized the look in each other’s eyes.

“Hi,” said Huo Jinyao. He spotted Sun Huiya at first glance and asked her, “you’re the director, right?”

Huo Jinyao looked at the badge that was worn on her clothes and continued asking, “director Sun?”

“Yes, I am.”

“Qingsang is still young. Director Sun, please guide her if she has problems doing her job.”

Sun Huiya had witnessed how Su Qingsang did her work in the morning. She worked hard on her first day and never talked too much. Along with the fact that she was a student of one of her old classmates, Sun Huiya had a good impression of Su Qingsang because of the quality of her work.

“Hi, Mr. Huo. Oh, we’re colleagues, and we learn from each other. We’re a team.”

“Just call me Huo, Director Sun.”

Huo Jinyao gave a wide grin, exposing his white, shiny teeth. He looked so handsome, sunny, and warm.

He managed to leave Sun Huiya with a very good impression. After Director Sun, he greeted Shen Lingyun and Yang Lu, the two vice-directors.

Huo Jinyao greeted everyone on the scene, asking people to look after Su Qingsang, who was new to the team.

He seemed not to notice Zheng Chenyu until the very end. Standing before the man, he looked at his white coat.

“Hi, Doctor. Which department you’re from?”

“I’m from the gynecology and obstetrics department as well,” Zheng Chenyu said, reaching out a hand with a smile. “Nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you too.” Huo Jinyao shook his hand, looked at him from head to toe, then asked, “Doctor Zheng, you look so young. You don’t have a girlfriend yet, do you?” That sounded like a casual question.

“No, my job has been keeping me busy.”

Zheng Chenyu’s smile showed that he was a little embarrassed. Being busy was one of the reasons why he was still single. More importantly, people always found it weird that he was a male doctor in the gynecology and obstetrics department.

That was the main reason why he was still unmarried. Many girls even believed that he was mentally ill because he had majored in gynecology and obstetrics.

Zheng Chenyu felt helpless about that. He was not mentally sick.

“This job does seem hard,” said Huo Jinyao. After hearing his words, Zheng Chenyu shook his hand again.

Maybe it was his illusion, but Zheng Chenyu somehow felt that the smile on Huo Jinyao’s face had suddenly become fake after he confirmed that he did not have a girlfriend indeed.

Also, Huo Jinyao shook his hand very aggressively. That hurt.

Illusion. That must be his illusion.

Huo Jinyao didn’t make Zheng Chenyu suffer a long-lasting pain, but soon let go of him.

After greeting everyone in the office, he went back to Su Qingsang and asked her, “darling, you haven’t had lunch yet, have you?”

He was wearing a wide grin. Su Qingsang felt that he had emphasized the word ‘darling,’ to sound extra affectionate.

Su Qingsang looked at him helplessly.

“No, I’m about to have some with the rest of my colleagues.”

“I see.” Huo Jinyao put on a disappointed face and said, “alright. I thought we could have lunch together.”

“Of course you can.” Sun Huiya’s past experiences allowed her to read the look on Huo Jinyao’s face. She said, “Su, just go with Huo. We’re colleagues now. We’ll have plenty of other chances to eat together.”
