Mrs. Huo is a Crybaby Chapter 159

It was hard to refuse this kindness.
So, Huo Qi watched as Miss Song ordered a huge array of desserts.
Cookies, cakes, milk tea...
His mouth twitched as he thought to himself. Although there is no main dish, the Master did tell her to order anything she wanted.
There should be no problem, right?
Song Yaoyao licked some cream from the corner of her mouth, not noticing the bright gazes from the two secretaries on the side. Soon, she lay on the desk, swinging her legs as she yawned in boredom.
The meeting lasted more than two hours.
When Huo Yunque entered the office, the place was empty except for the desserts all over his desk.
His temples twitched and he walked over as he rolled up his sleeves.
"Where is she?"
"Sir, Miss Song felt sleepy after eating dinner so she is sleeping in your resting room," Huo Qi replied in fear.
"Dinner?"
Huo Yunque lowered his gaze coldly and swept it across the desserts on his desk. He then walked toward the resting room.
Huo Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was not blamed.
The office door opened. When she heard the movement, the girl furrowed her brows and shrunk into the quilt.
The heater was on high in the room, causing her cheeks to turn rosy like an overly ripe peach, tempting one to take a bite.
Huo Yunque adjusted the temperature and sat on the edge of the bed.
He lifted his hand to brush her hair behind her ear. All of a sudden, the girl stretched out her hand and held onto his finger in her sleep.
Tightly.
"Song Yaoyao?"
He poked her puffy cheeks.
It seemed as though she had gained some weight after coming to the Huo Family.

Huo Yunque raised an eyebrow as amusement appeared in his gaze. He looked down and quietly analyzed the girl's sleeping face.
Her lips were slightly parted, her dark eyelashes were curled, and they quivered slightly with each breath.
As she lay on the big gray bed, her cute and delicate face did not match her surroundings.
Huo Yunque ripped open the top two buttons on his collar and tried to pull his hand away, but he failed. Instead, he caused the girl to furrow her brows and groan.
So sensitive...
Huo Yunque shook his head, pulled out some documents, and started looking through them.
As the documents were boring, his free hand subconsciously played with the girl's puffy cheeks.
The lights turned on and the night arrived.
Song Yaoyao had a really good sleep. She sat up, rubbed her eyes, and looked blankly at her foreign surroundings.
"Gege?"
A good while later, she finally realized she was at her Gege's company.
At that moment, in the office next door.
The atmosphere was extremely oppressed. The company's higher-ups had their heads lowered, too afraid to make a sound as they sensed the pressure from their boss.
"You need to know that what I want is not an apology. I want a solution."
He pressed on a document and pushed it over. He then curled his finger and knocked on it as he looked at everyone with his dull gray eyes. "Give me a new proposal by tomorrow morning or hand in your resignation. Understood?"
"Yes! Boss!"
The person leading the project broke out in a cold sweat. He was bent at the waist and was too afraid to even wipe his forehead.
The office was so quiet that one could even hear a pin drop.
Suddenly, there was a 'click' and a head with rosy cheeks poked out from behind the door. Probably because she had just woken up, her eyes were slightly dazed and innocent.

She pursed her lips and looked around the office. When she spotted the familiar figure she was looking for, a smile appeared on her lips.
"Gege, hug..." the girl stretched out her arms cutely.
"You're awake."
Huo Yunque walked over, glanced at her bare feet, and furrowed his brows. He leaned over slightly, lifted her into his arms, and returned to the front of the room.
As he placed the girl on his lap, he nodded slightly. "Continue..."
