Chapter 24: Meeting the Domineering CEO's Childhood Sweetheart
"I tried it myself, but after I sent the internship application email, it was like a dead end. It's been more than a month, and there's no response at all."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to help you. If you really can't get in, Dad will find someone to invest in you so you can open your own law firm."
"Dad! I have no experience at all. How can I become a partner in a law firm? I just want to be down-to-earth and learn from the big lawyers in Hejun for a few years. When I have a successful case in the future, I will open my own law firm. What do you think?"
"You have ideas and execution. Dad supports you. Wait for my news."
"Thank you dad."
Xin Suyan hung up the phone contentedly.
I packed my bag and went to the library to study, and prepared seriously for the legal internship interview at the law firm.
Xin Suyan was concentrating on writing her paper when a figure approached from afar.
"You finally showed up?"
Xin Suyan looked up at Huo Rongtin who was slowly walking towards her.
"I'm sorry. To make up for it, I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
"No, I have to go back early today to pack my luggage. I'm going back to my country tomorrow."
"There's still a week left before the holiday. Why are you going back so early?"
"I'm not like you. You're a busy man, and I don't have much to do. I'll go back early to accompany my father and brother."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I was recently criticized by my supervisor because of my thesis. My master also locked me up in Meigao Investment to work on a closed project, and I can't contact the outside world."
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Xin Suyan pouted in grievance and looked at him angrily.
"The projects we do at our investment bank require very high confidentiality. We cannot tell even our immediate family members because we are afraid of the risk of leakage. I know I was wrong this time. Can you forgive me this time? Next time, I will definitely tell you in advance?"
"Tell me in advance next time? Aren't you afraid that I will reveal your secret?"
"I know you won't."
After saying that, Huo Rongtin kissed her on the forehead.
Zhang Qianlin, who happened to be borrowing books from the library, saw this scene.
We also saw Shin So-yeon wearing a custom-made diamond bracelet on her arm.
That brand is Zhang Qianlin's favorite.
The sparkling diamond light in the sun deeply hurt her heart.
I subconsciously clenched the book in my hand, and my heart ached.
In the past, the two of them could be considered childhood sweethearts.
When they were in junior high school, Si Jin, Huo Rongtin and she were the three musketeers of the campus.
Especially in annual exams or competitions, the three of them are almost always among the top three in the grade.
Their school is notoriously strict.
Seats are rotated according to ranking every semester.
Huo Rongtian sat in the first row, the first seat;
Zhang Qianlin sat in the middle;
Si Jin followed closely behind.
Qianlin knew from childhood that she and Huo Rongtin were engaged as children;
He feels fearless because he is favored and has a somewhat willful personality.
Huo Rongtian only thought she was like Wenxi's sister, who needed care;
She is also the daughter of my father’s comrade-in-arms, Uncle Zhang;
So I respect her very much.
Si Jin seems like a naughty, rebellious teenager;
He either likes to pull her ponytail or poke her back with a pen;
Qianlin was so angry that she chased him and beat him.
The three are not only competitors in study.
There are many common interests.
I like doing charity and adventure.
Once, they made an appointment to go camping.
There was a heavy storm in the middle of the night.
Zhang Qianlin was so scared that she hid in Si Jin's tent.
The two were alone together for the first time.
Qianlin discovered that she liked Si Jin;
Si Jin also has a good impression of Qianlin.
The two of them hid under a tent, letting the storm rage outside;
We sat and chatted all night.
Just as I get older;
Qianlin increasingly likes Rongtian's mature and steady personality.
Plus, Rong Tian is very good at taking care of his sister;
Be gentlemanly and decent to girls.
Let Qianlin's attention slowly shift to Rongtian.
Si Jin also noticed this.
Fortunately, the two never dated.
But Rong Tian never noticed the subtle relationship between the three of them.
Qianlin's thoughts were interrupted by the laughter of two people in the distance.
He quickly pulled away and hid behind a bookcase and continued to peek.
Rong Tian helped Su Yan pack up her books and prepared to go out.
Qianlin hurried out and greeted them as if they met by chance.
"Hi, Rongtian, long time no see, Suyan, you are here too?"
Qianlin felt a little guilty, but she wanted to know the relationship between her and Rongtian.
"Yeah, what a coincidence."
Suyan felt a little guilty.
After all, Irene told her a lot of gossip about her and Rongtian.
But Rong Tian didn't know yet that she knew about their relationship.
"You're here to borrow books too. I won't bother you anymore. We'll leave first."
Huo Rongtin saw that she was holding two books in her hands and made an excuse to leave.
"Rongtian, we haven't gotten together for a long time. Can you call Sijin so we can get together?"
"Okay, I'll make arrangements."
Rong Tian smiled politely, took Su Yan's hand and left.
"How about today, ok?"
Zhang Qianlin grabbed Huo Rongtin's arm and stared at him blankly.
Huo Rongtin pushed her arm away with his hand.
"It's not convenient today. Suyan is going back to her country tomorrow. I want to see her off today."
"Then let's go together. You guys have to have dinner anyway."
Seeing the two people's strange expressions, Xin Suyan couldn't help but try to smooth things over: "Why don't we go together, Rongtian, why don't you introduce your friend to me?"
The three of them sat separately at the dining table, looking at each other.
"Won't you introduce me to each other? Are you and Suyan in a relationship?"
Huo Rongtin and Xin Suyan looked at each other.
"Yes. Let me formally introduce you. This is my girlfriend."
"Does Suyan know that I am your betrothed?"
"know."
Su Yan answered clearly and generously, which made Huo Rongtin look at her with new eyes.
"How do you know?" Huo Rongtin was also a little surprised.
"Mr. Huo is a well-known figure, so how could he not know such a small matter? I have asked around about the number of girls who have confessed their love to you."
Huo Rongtin looked at Su Yan lovingly with a smile on his face.
"You don't mind, then?"
Zhang Qianlin placed her hands under the table and gripped her thighs tightly.
Soyeon smiled and shook her head.
Looking at Rong Tian affectionately.
"Then bless you." Qianlin held the goblet in front of her.
Drink it all in one gulp.
The waiter next to him saw that the wine glass was empty and came forward to pour wine.
"You don't drink, drink less."
Huo Rongtin's habitual concern made Xin Suyan discover the tacit understanding between them.
"It's okay. I still have you. You're always the best at dealing with drunken me."
Huo Rongtin was used to Zhang Qianlin joking with him and didn't care.
Zhang Qianlin stole a glance at Xin Suyan;
Seeing the embarrassment on her face, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
The three of them suddenly fell silent and looked at each other for a long time.
Zhang Qianlin was the first to break the silence.
"When did you two start talking? How long has it been?"
Xin Suyan glanced at Huo Rongtian, and Rongtian answered knowingly.
"Two months."
Rong Tian nonchalantly raised his red wine glass and took a sip.
"You will graduate with your PhD in half a year. I thought you were busy with your thesis, but I didn't expect you would have time for a relationship."
Zhang Qianlin also pretended to be calm and took a sip of wine.
There was a stiff smile on his face, as if he had been injected with an injection.
"Well, I fell in love with her at first sight two years ago. I didn't expect to meet her at Newtown University."
"Really? It's quite predestined."
See Huo Rongtin looking at Xin Suyan lovingly.
Zhang Qianlin held back her eye rolling.
