"Fourth Master, it seems that Miss Xia is looking for you outside because of the illegal possession of Qingyuan, Xia's legacy, by the Mo family."

Assistant Yang watched as Huo Beixiao's brows were furrowed little by little, and asked in a low voice, "Shouldn't Mo's provoke him again and again, should we give it some color?"

"That……"

Assistant Yang paused, "Miss Xia is still waiting outside."

"Let her in first."

Is there nothing he can do about his little guy?She only thinks of him when she has no other choice.

When Xia Nuanxin came in, he was a little surprised to meet her eyes.There was stubbornness in her eyes, compared to the first time I saw her, when she was running around with the box in her arms, like a helpless little girl, the pleading in her eyes was clearly revealed.

It seemed that he at that time was her only life-saving straw.

Seeing her again, his heart suddenly ached a little, and his face, which was originally not big, looked thinner and thinner.

She bit her lip and spoke first, "Fourth Master, I..."

It was she who offered to leave at the beginning, but now, it was she who came back to look for him on her own initiative, her face was a little red.

Since Assistant Yang came to tell him everything in advance, he didn't seem surprised by her arrival, and looked at her with a slight smile, "Hesitating is not your style."

He smiled and looked at the woman in front of him. Since the first time he knew her, she had been so stubborn, and her stubbornness made people feel distressed.

After looking at him for a long time, she finally opened her mouth.

"The Mo Clan illegally occupied Qingyuan,"

"Oh?"

and then?
He looked at her curiously. He had known for a long time that the Mo clan illegally occupied the Xia clan's inheritance. It is not just as simple as a piece of land. If it is well developed, it will be an endless asset.

With just a poor daughter, how could she guard that piece of land?

Including Huo's, they were also waiting to take a bite of that piece of meat.

Seeing his indifferent expression, she became a little anxious, "That's my parents' memory, it's the only thing they left me, I must protect it."

It's just that simple, if she just wants to protect the good memories of her parents, she will do whatever it takes to protect it.

He suddenly felt stuck in his throat, and he really didn't know what to say to her innocent, pure and impurity-free request.

His throat was a little rough, but he finally opened his mouth, "I'll give you one billion and give up that piece of land."

"Do not."

Without thinking, she refused his request with righteous words without any hesitation.

20 billion is not as good as the memory left by her parents.

In this world, money is not enough. Money cannot buy many things, for example, family affection.

He looked at her and suddenly smiled, "What conditions do you offer in exchange for me to help you?"

It was only then that she remembered that he was a businessman, and had always been.

What else can she have in exchange for chips?In exchange for Huo's 20 billion economic benefits?

Not to mention 20 billion, she doesn't even have 20 now.

However, she couldn't give up, she wanted to protect that place, even with her life.

"I……"

She was a little speechless for a moment, she really couldn't find anything else she could use in exchange.

"you……?"

He repeated her words, waiting for the next one, accidentally met her clear eyes, at that moment, he suddenly couldn't bear to force her.

After a while, she raised her head with unusually firm eyes.

"What do you want? As long as I have it, I will try my best to make it."

This is her last bet, to take everything she has, to force Huo Beixiao to give Qingyuan a future.

He didn't speak, and took a step forward, getting closer to her, so close that he could breathe on her forehead, or so close that he could hold her in his arms.

However, he didn't do that. If she didn't volunteer, he wouldn't force her.

Obviously, she is not used to this distance, being oppressed by him makes her feel uncomfortable.

However, she didn't escape because she wanted something from him.

He raised one hand, ruffled her hair, and walked away, returning to his original position.

"I want you to be my secretary."

To be his secretary and return to his side?

"I……"

She subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after saying "I", she suddenly realized that she had no right to bargain with him.

"Say."

He allowed her to tell all the easy things.

"I, can I change my position?"

Her voice was a little low, and it was obvious that she lacked confidence. It stands to reason that she had no reason to negotiate terms with him.

"Then what position do you want?"

He stared at her with a smile, as long as she was happy.

"I...must I stay in Huo's?"

He nodded, "Well, it must, this is the condition."

He can satisfy all her conditions, but the only thing he can't do is leave the Huo family. She is too weak, and there are too many people waiting to take away everything she has. Without his protection, how can she be alone?
"Then can I start from the grassroots?"

Starting from the grassroots level, he was stunned.

That's right, Huo's is also a prestigious company in Ruancheng. Assistant Yang alone is a doctoral student at Columbia University. To be his secretary is what many women dream of.

However, she is unwilling, even at the lowest level, to work with a group of skilled workers.

It seemed that she was afraid that he would disagree, so she hurriedly emphasized, "At the bottom, I can get familiar with the work and the assembly line of the company's operations as soon as possible. I want to grow as soon as possible."

Her face was slightly red.

There is really no reason to refute such a high-sounding reason, but is it really the case?
She just wanted to escape from his side, and he understood all of this.

After a long silence, he finally nodded.

"That's up to you."

After Xia Nuanxin left, Huo Beixiao called Assistant Yang.

Throughout the whole process, he kept a dark face, "It seems that the last time I taught Mo's lesson was not enough, this time it's time to make it a long memory."

"Then, what does fourth master mean?"

Assistant Yang understood that Huo Beixiao was really angry, and he was going to get serious this time.

Mo Yixuan was the first person who could make Huo Beixiao angry twice.

"The Mo Clan illegally occupied the right to use the Xia Clan's estate. Find the best lawyer and make the trouble as serious as possible."

Assistant Yang nodded.

After Xia Nuanxin returned to Qingyuan, Aunt Li was still looking anxiously at the door. She was afraid that those people from yesterday would come again and forcibly demolish the place. She alone had no way to protect it.

After a day of worrying like this, after seeing Xia Nuanxin's figure, the heart in his throat seemed to be let go.

"Miss?"

She knew what Aunt Li wanted to ask, so she patted Aunt Li on the shoulder lightly, and comforted, "It's okay, Huo Beixiao is willing to help us, Qingyuan will be fine."

It's not that Aunt Li has never heard of Huo Beixiao's name, she is young and promising, and the Huo family he runs has a prestigious position in Ruan City.

However, the most important thing for a businessman is the relationship of interests. As the saying goes, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.How could Huo Beixiao agree to help the Xia family protect Qingyuan without the support of extremely tempting interests?
"Miss, did you promise him something?"

Aunt Li's eyes were a bit solemn. When she was working in Xia's house, she saw this kind of thing a lot. A simple little girl like Xia Nuanxin, in the end, lost her chastity and family. She couldn't just watch Xia Nuanxin, who she had dragged since she was a child, into the tiger's mouth.

"Ah."

She nodded, and seeing Aunt Li's nervous appearance, she chuckled, "Don't worry, I just promised him to work in Huo's, starting from the lowest level, everything will be fine."

How could there be such a good thing in the world?
Aunt Li was dubious.

The next morning, when Xia Nuanxin was still sound asleep, Aunt Li happily came in with a newspaper.

"Miss, miss, look quickly."

Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she took the newspaper, only to see such a headline written on it——The Mo Clan's illegal occupation of the Xia Clan's inheritance, whether it is the loss of humanity or the loss of morality.

Looking at the content of the article again, the sharp writing style turned the point of view of the whole matter to one side. If they wanted to turn Qianlong around, the Mo family would have to spend a lot of effort.

Thinking about it now, Mo Yixuan might be jumping his feet in anger. The fat that was in his mouth, now, not only did he not eat it, but instead he won't be able to eat it.

However, that's not what she wants to consider.

He did what he said.

So, should I also keep my promise?

When she went to Huo's to report this time, because she rejected Huo Beixiao's kindness, no one knew the fundamental relationship.

"Name?"

"Xia Nuanxin."

"age?"

"20."

"Education?"

"..."

Faced with the interviewer's pressing questions, she had nowhere to hide. Because of family changes, she gave up her original studies. She bit her lip, as if she could ooze blood.

Seeing that she was silent, the interviewer put down the resume in his hand, and said to her harshly, "Miss Xia, I know that you used to be the daughter of the Xia family, but the Xia family was a few years ago, and our company is not a key university. You won’t be admitted for master’s degree and overseas doctorate degree, we can’t let you in just because you were the daughter of the Xia family, that would be extremely unfair to other employees.”

Even though the words were very tactful, she was still bruised to the point where the interviewer had only one meaning, and that was—not to admit her.

It turned out that without Huo Beixiao's protection, she really couldn't move a single step, even if it was for survival.

She took her resume, and just as she was about to leave, a person came and said something to the interviewer. The attitude of the interviewer behind him suddenly turned 180 degrees.

"Miss Xia, wait a moment."

She turned around and stared at the interviewer in surprise.

The interviewer said to her with a smile on his face, "Miss Xia, you have been admitted."
