Hundreds of meters of red carpet stretched all the way to the road. On both sides of the red carpet

were colorful flowers and balloons. Today VSUS would hold its annual meeting here.

Speaking of VSUS boss Quarmy Huo in Jiang City, he was truly somebody. He was a real business

wizard. It only took him three years to get his company listed after graduated from university.

Since then, Quarmy Huo has made the company one of the world's largest group companies through a

series of acquisitions.

In recent years, his momentum had become more and more fierce. This year, he had expanded his

business to Europe. Recently, he had just returned from the Arctic Circle. It was said that the company

would start a multi-billion dollar project there.

If this project went well, Quarmy Huo's status would be further enhanced. By then, no one in Jiang City

should be able to compete with him.

It was noon, several luxury cars drove slowly toward the hotel. The extended Rolls-Royce in the middle

was particularly eye- catching. The crowd stirred when they saw the several 8 on the license plate

which represented prominent status, "Quarmy Huo... Look, it's him... Here he comes" The journalists

waiting outside the hotel all lifted their cameras and started shooting, apart from the journalists, there

was a full crowd of people standing on the streets, discussing and longingly to witness the presence of

this business genius.

The car steadily parked at the door of the hotel. The man in gloves stepped forward respectfully and

pulled the car door. The first thing he saw was a pair of shiny leather shoes sticking out of the car and

then a pair of slender legs.

Quarmy Huo bent over and came out of the car. "God, what a fine look!" Someone in the crowd sighed

in awe.

"The real one looks much better than the one in the TV and magazines!"

The flashes were so flickering that people couldn't open their eyes, but Quarmy Huo walked calmly

across the red carpet, leaving admiration and surprise behind him.

His secretary, Linda, followed closely with a briefcase and walked through the hotel lobby. Linda rushed

a few steps ahead to open the elevator door, and Quarmy Huo stepped into the elevator with those

long legs.

When the elevator door closed, a purple figure flashed through. "Wait a minute!" He said in a hurry, but

it was too late.

"Boss Huo, what can I do for you?" Linda was surprised.

"Forget it, maybe I'm seeing things!" Quarmy Huo closed his eyes. How could a person who hadn't

been heard for three years suddenly appear? He knew very well how much she hated him. Even if she

wanted to make an appearance, she would not pick his own company that held the annual meeting

here.

In the lobby of the hotel, Monica was following a young man, carrying a big bag and wearing a pair of

black-framed glasses flatteringly The man was in a hurry. "What's my schedule today?"

"At 1 pm Mr. Pan will talk to you about cooperation. At three o'clock, you have to go to the nursing

home to do charity. Mr. Liu will treat you to a dinner tonight which you have already agreed." Monica

looked at the card in her hand. "By the way, Miss Lily will come back tonight..."

"You'll attend the banquet tonight for me!"

"Me?" Monica opened her mouth wide with shock, and then immediately shook her head like a rattle

drum. "No! Mr. Wang, I can't!"

"Why not?" Roland Wang turned around and looked at her. He hated women with glasses the most, but

Leon Gu gave him a woman with glasses as his secretary firmly. Even if he could put up with the

glasses, but what kind of the black-framed glasses was this?

Serious, old- fashioned, rigid, and depressed, this was the first impression Roland Wang had on her.

He was already used to be frivolous, suddenly a dull-look woman appeared and this made him

extremely uncomfortable.

However, the connection with Leon Gu was so crucial that it was impossible to say no, he had to

reluctantly accept it. Although he accepted it, it didn't mean that he would make her get away with it

easily. Monica had been given several hard times in just a few months.

However, this woman was really tough. No matter how he tortured her, she would not say a word nor

complain to Leon Gu. The only advantage of her made Roland Wang feel comforted.

However, he was still uncomfortable. This time, Grandpa asked him to take care of a job in Jiang City.

He clearly wanted to discipline him. The first impression was that this woman was a jinx. If she hadn't

come he would have had a nice time here, however after she came his life had been hard. If he was

feeling down, the people around him would not have a good time either, which was why he brought her

back to give a hard time without thinking.

Monica was very resistant to returning to Jiang City. "Mr. Wang, can you find someone else to go?"

If she agreed to come back with him without hesitation, Roland Wang might consider letting her go.

Since she was so resistant, he might as well make her suffer one more time. Therefore, Monica's

accompany to Jiang City was settled.

"I'm stiff, dumb, I don't talk properly and don't drink... and I'm also ugly." Seeing Roland Wang staring at

her for answers, Monica spat out a dozen of her shortcomings in one breath.

"Finally you have some self- knowledge. But don't worry. It's exactly because of your shortcomings that

I let you go. If you're smarter and prettier, I won't be willing to send you to those perverts." Monica

suddenly got tongue-tied. To stop her from saying more, Roland Wang added, "Of course, if you don't

want to do it, you can always quit!"

Leaving these words behind, he strode out of the hotel. Monica was a bit shocked but quickly ran after

him.
