Chapter 556: I Think I Just Saw Miss Huo

Huo Yao walked behind Min Yu. She heard her phone ping when she was getting out of the car, so she was replying to a text message with her head lowered.

Pei Feng was waiting for them downstairs and had just come back from the bathroom. He looked a little excited when he spotted Min Yu.

Even though Min Yu did not seem to like him when they crossed paths at the Yi residence, he did not take it to heart. Considering Min Yu’s high status, it was understandable for him to have an eccentric temper.

Pei Feng quickly walked over and bowed to Min Yu reverently. “Hello, Young Master Min.”

Min Yu glanced at Pei Feng calmly without saying a word. He turned to look at Huo Yao behind him. Since she was still texting, he remained standing and seemed to be waiting for her to finish.

Pei Feng frowned briefly. However, he said nothing as he stood beside Min Yu quietly and watched.

Huo Yao detected them looking at her. After she was done typing the last word and hit send, she looked up. “Why did you stop walking?”

Her eyes landed on Min Yu’s face as she spoke quizzically.

“I’m waiting for you to finish,” said Min Yu calmly in a cool tone.

The reception manager was stunned when he got a clear look at Huo Yao’s face.

Huo Yao pursed her lips as she put her phone away. She finally noticed Pei Feng standing beside them. She merely glanced at him before saying to Min Yu, “It’s okay. Don’t worry about it.”

Pei Feng did not try to greet Huo Yao. Instead, he continued smiling. “Let’s head upstairs.”

He gestured for them to go upstairs.

Min Yu looked at Huo Yao. His exquisite face looked elegant as he said, “Ladies first.”

Huo Yao smiled ambiguously and walked in front of Pei Feng without trying to be polite.

Their behavior left Pei Feng feeling awkward briefly.

Min Yu had high status, but he had deliberately let an ordinary young woman walk ahead of him. He must be trying to tell Pei Feng something.

All Pei Feng cared about was Min Yu’s impression of him, so he kept flattering him and did not care about anyone else, especially Huo Yao.

After all, it did not cross his mind that Min Yu would fancy an ordinary young woman like her. However, from the looks of it now... Pei Feng composed himself before he turned to follow behind Min Yu.

After they went upstairs, the reception manager spent some time calming himself before he finally took out his phone and tapped on the management level chat group.

He sent out a text to the group: [I think I just saw Miss Huo.]

The moment he sent the message, the chat group with over 500 people exploded.

Manager Wang Ocean Trading (Capital): [God. I’m so green with envy.]

Flower Haven General Manager (Province Y): [Looks like you are going to get promoted!]

Forte Mining General Manager (Province B): [Sigh. All I can do is dig ore.]

Fishery District Manager (Province A): [The only thing I’m fit to do is fish.]

Real Estate District Manager (Province C): [I’m only worthy of selling property.]

Logistics District Manager (Country M): [I can only sail.]

After the reception manager saw the bursts of jealousy inside the group chat, he smiled. He did not reply and put away his phone and hurried to the second floor, waving to the general manager.

Old Mr. Pei was chatting with Fang Chen and Lin Shuwen while they sat on the couch. The moment he saw Huo Yao and Min Yu enter the private room, he stood up and walked over. “Little Master Huo, Young Master Min, welcome.”

They walked in at 12:00 pm sharp and were quite punctual.
