"Mr . Su, it's very nice to meet you . " Huo Zhenghai put on his socializing face as he walked through the door .

Su Yu slumped more into his chair, barely acknowledging Huo Zhenghai's presence .

"Have a seat, Chairman Huo . "

Su Yu's secretary brought in two cups of hot tea as soon as Huo Zhenghai sat down .

"Oh yes, very good tea!" Huo Zhenghai sipped a mouthful and complimented . "Must be Longjing leaves picked right after the rain, sweet and refreshing . " He continued .

"Hm . I have no idea what it is . Someone had gifted to my father and he couldn't finish it . He gave it to me to serve it to old grandpas like you . "

Su Yu had no intention of coating his thoughts as he directly called Huo Zhenghai an old grandpa . . .

However, Huo Zhenghai was not upset by Su Yu's choice of words . After all, humans had a way of picking their battles that reconciled with their own personal interest . If Su Yu's last name wasn't Su, he would have most definitely lashed out .

"Haha, I like your straightforwardness, Mr . Su . "

"I don't remember having any business contacts with the Huo Corporation . What is it that you are looking for here?" Su Yu asked with his eyes half open, seemingly bored .

"Since you've asked, I guess there's no point of me going in circles . I heard that you've taken an interest in my daughter, Huo Mian? Is that correct?" Huo Zhenghai put down his cup of tea and carefully examined Su Yu's expression .

"Your daughter? Does Huo Mian have anything to do with your family?" Su Yu asked deliberately .

"Haha, Mr . Su, perhaps you didn't know . I'm rather embarrassed about it too, but it happened twenty or so odd years ago . Huo Mian is a lost daughter of mine . "



"A lost daughter, hm? Why, I must have heard a different story then, where you didn't even admit her existence . I only know you have one daughter, and its Huo Yanyan . "

"Oh . Ha . Well . Mian's mother wouldn't forgive me . I was young and naïve then and hurt her deeply . As the days pass, age is starting to creep up on me . The importance of family is incomparable, so naturally…" Huo Zhenghai continued, in an attempt to appear as a good father figure in front of Su Yu .

Deep down, Su Yu felt a strong sense of disgust . . .

It was no surprise that Huo Mian had publicly announced her disengagement from this old guy . If it were up to him, he would have slapped Huo Zhenghai across the face by now .

"I see… so, you're here to inquire about my interest in Huo Mian?"

"Yes . Rumors are just rumors, and I can't believe everything I heard . I thought I would come and verify with you . "

"It's true, I like Huo Mian . However, the feeling isn't mutual . She's not interested . "



"Oh, really?" Huo Zhenghai appeared rather content .

"Yup . I've tried everything I can, but she would barely throw me a glance . I'm all out of ideas, I should probably give up . . . " Su Yu said intentionally .

"Hm . Perhaps I could help you, Mr . Su . "

"You? How?" Su Yu lazily leaned forward from his chair and observed Huo Zhenghai .

"I can help you convince her, of course! The kid is rather stubborn, but she's got a soft heart . If I were to welcome her back to the family and give her a decent identity, it would surely look good for the Su Family if you guys decide to get engaged . "

"Engaged? You're thinking rather far . . . " Su Yu sneered .

"Well, it's not impossible . Think about it, the marriage would advance both of our enterprises . Haha, your father will be delighted to hear the union of two strong families . "



"That's not important to my family . My grandfather only expects my future wife to be a self-respecting woman . "

"Oh yes, your grandfather is very correct . "

"Anyway, I don't think you'll be of much help to me, Chairman Huo . "

"Why do you say that, Mr . Su?" Huo Zhenghai noticed Su Yu only told him half of the story .

"Because Huo Mian is married . . . "

"What?" Huo Zhenghai was dumbstruck .

"Haha, sounds like you didn't know?" Su Yu enjoyed watching Huo Zhenghai's reaction .

"What… to who? Who is she married to?" Huo Zhenghai asked . Clearly, the news came too fast, and he had no way of digesting it .
