Seeing her cold attitude, Huo Shao Ting's eyes became deep, his thin lips tightened as he looked into her eyes for a few seconds before saying, "Then go change your clothes, I'll take care of some paperwork and we'll head out."
Rong Dai nodded and withdrew her gaze.
As she passed him, she felt something in her heart kept falling, tumbling into a bottomless abyss.
Her fingertips tightened slightly, and her hands and feet involuntarily turned icy cold.
After entering the dressing room, she let out a breath.
She sat in the chair, looking at herself in the mirror, she had indeed become much more haggard these past few days.
She glanced at the time and carefully selected a long dress in the dressing room.
Although she was still not very used to this kind of dress that exposed her arms and legs, she would have to get used to it, as she preferred long dresses.
Huo Shao Ting left the bedroom and went to the study, opening his computer, Zhang Assistant's call came in.
"Boss, are you sure you want to do this? The madam may not be willing!"
Zhang Assistant was very worried.
He knew the result of Wen Shi Lan's return to the Wen Family these past few days.
To get Wen Shi Lan back, the Wen Family had given up 60% of their shares.
Even though the Wen Family was not what it used to be, this hump of a camel was still bigger than a horse. He knew very clearly what these 60% of shares meant.
But he did not expect the boss to transfer all these shares to the madam. In other words, the boss took down the Wen Family and gave it to his wife.
Only the boss could carry out such an overbearing punishment and gift.
But in order to ensure these 60% of shares were valid and legal, the boss had rested less than 4 hours a day these past few days.
"Where is all this nonsense coming from? Did I take it down to give to you?"
Huo Shao Ting said coldly, startling Zhang Assistant so much his back went cold.
Such a big gift, even if the boss dared to give it, he didn't dare accept it!
"Do as I said."
"Yes, boss."
Zhang Assistant didn't dare ask again, and hurried to get things done.
Rong Dai had changed her clothes and had been waiting downstairs for a while. The moment she saw Huo Shao Ting coming down the stairs, she could still clearly hear her accelerated heartbeat.
The aura this man emitted made it impossible to ignore him.
The two got in the car and arrived at the reserved restaurant in the evening glow of dusk.
The husband and wife walking together were simply a beautiful sight.
When they arrived at the reserved room, Rong Dai saw Ji Zheng who had been waiting here for some time.
She looked at him in slight surprise, not saying anything.
Ji Zheng, on the other hand, was not surprised at all.
He looked at the husband and wife with a smile, his gaze finally falling on Rong Dai, "Ms. Rong, we meet again."
Before Rong Dai could respond, she heard Huo Shao Ting next to her say indifferently while staring at him, "I'd prefer you address her Mrs. Huo."
"Alright, Mrs. Huo it is. When I heard you got married, I didn't believe it. I didn't expect my client to turn out to be sister-in-law."
Ji Zheng smiled lightly, separated from the couple by a table.
His temperament was similarly impossible to ignore, but he was not as cold as Huo Shao Ting.
"Don't overthink it, sister-in-law. Before meeting you, Ms. An rarely mentioned you to me. I hadn't seen your photo or met you in person either. Although I'm quite curious, I don't pry into my clients' privacy."
"I also only found out recently. Mainly because of the commotion, I think it'd be hard not to know."
Seeing her indifferent expression, Ji Zheng also understood his own profession, so he immediately explained.
Rong Dai was actually only a little surprised, nothing more.
Even if she overthought things, with Huo Shao Ting and Ji Zheng's capabilities, what could she resist?
"It's fine, I trust Mr. Ji's professionalism."
She nodded politely and responded lightly.
Ji Zheng looked at the couple leisurely, hands crossed on the table. "So, shall we eat first or discuss business first?"
Rong Dai was confused. From the moment she saw Ji Zheng, she knew Huo Shao Ting didn't just bring her here to eat, there must be something else.
But Ji Zheng was a lawyer. Why would Huo Shao Ting want a lawyer to discuss things with them?
Divorce and assets.
Only these two.
But she was very clear about her assets with Huo Shao Ting. So they were getting a divorce?
She didn't know Ji Zheng's business scope was so wide he could even handle divorce cases.
She didn't say anything since Huo Shao Ting had arranged this. It wasn't her place to speak.
No matter what, it seemed they would have to reach this point. A fleeting romance, wanting it to last long was simply wishful thinking.
She took a sip of water from her glass. Watching as Huo Shao Ting called Zhang Assistant in, and Ji Zheng also took out his briefcase.
Thick documents, placed on the table, the scent of ink still lingered.
"Mr. Huo, are you really decided about transferring 60% of Wen's shares?"
Before starting, Ji Zheng asked Huo Shao Ting very seriously.
Of course he recognized Huo Shao Ting. They were alumni, just took different paths and had different professions.
Otherwise, he and Huo Shao Ting would definitely have been rivals.
"You asking this makes me very doubtful of your professionalism." Huo Shao Ting answered indifferently.
Ji Zheng was speechless. This guy really hadn't changed one bit.
"Mrs. Huo, please take a careful look at these documents. If there are no issues, just sign at the designated places. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me."
Ji Zheng handed her a document, and started working very professionally.
Rong Dai took it, confused, and couldn't help but turn to Huo Shao Ting, asking, "Shao Ting, what is going on?"
Hearing this, Ji Zheng stopped his pen and looked at Huo Shao Ting, then at Zhang Assistant. Seeing Zhang Assistant's helpless expression, he immediately understood.
He had taken over this share transfer case, so he knew some of the reasons behind it.
He just didn't expect Huo Shao Ting to not have told Rong Dai about it.
"Mr. Huo, I suggest you communicate with your wife first. I'll step out for a moment."
After saying that, he got up and walked out. Zhang Assistant followed him out.
The room became quiet. Rong Dai glanced through the documents before placing them back on the table.
She was a clever woman. Although she didn't understand these things, she could still make out a little.
Share transfers, and Wen Family's at that.
She vaguely understood now why Huo Shao Ting had let Wen Shi Lan off.
"I won't let that woman off, but the Wen Family must compensate you what you deserve. These 60% of shares are not much."
Before she could speak, Huo Shao Ting turned to face her, deep eyes looking at her solemnly.
Rong Dai's heart thumped wildly under his gaze. The calm she had just managed to regain was once again out of control.
