The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 542

"I know, thank you."

Rong Dai nodded, and just then the room bell rang. Song Xuechun hurriedly wiped her eyes a couple of times and tried to calm her emotions.

Rong Dai waited until she was ready before going to open the door.

"Mrs. Huo, Mr. Huo Ersi invites you to join him for breakfast."

It was Huo Ersi's secretary.

Rong Dai nodded, letting him leave first.

"Order breakfast sent up. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat again later."

Recalling the dinner situation yesterday, she had to advise Song Xuechun.

Song Xuechun nodded. She really didn't want to see Huo Ersi, and she had something to tell Jia Yi to do.

Dai'er wasn't taking it to heart, but as her friend, she had to plan ahead.

Rong Dai got ready and went downstairs. In the dining room there was still only Huo Ersi alone.

Seeing her come over, he immediately stood up and courteously pulled out a chair for her.

"Thank you."

Rong Dai politely thanked him and sat down.

Huo Ersi still had that gentle, seemingly modest smile on his face. He had the waiter bring up breakfast.

Rong Dai didn't have the habit of discussing matters at the table, and if there was a result, Huo Ersi would give it to her.

Otherwise, asking was useless and would only annoy people.

"I'm very sorry about the Mina situation."

"I originally thought she would be a good candidate to become my wife, but this time I was really disappointed."

"Mrs. Huo is generous, please excuse me."

Halfway through the meal, Huo Ersi spoke up with a faint smile, looking at her with very gentle eyes.

Rong Dai was slightly stunned, paused in motion, a little surprised.

Huo Ersi was nearly forty, yet he still had no wife. She had thought Mina was his mistress he kept outside.

"It looks like Mrs. Huo has some misunderstandings about me!"

Huo Ersi was extremely good at reading people's expressions to guess their thoughts.

Seeing Rong Dai's expression, he immediately understood and mocked himself.

Rong Dai smiled awkwardly: "I didn't take Miss Mina's matter to heart. I just didn't expect Mr. Huo Ersi to be so young and accomplished, yet not already married."

"After all, men as excellent as you are rare these days."

Business flattery that wouldn't make her lose face, but she was also a little puzzled why Huo Ersi would suddenly say such things.

This feeling... seemed to be hinting something to her.

Whether he was married or not had nothing to do with her, and she didn't care either.

And Huo Ersi should also understand this, so why would he say such thought-provoking words to her?

"Mrs. Huo flatters me."

Huo Ersi smiled gently, then gestured for his secretary to bring over the documents and handed them to her, ending the topic.

"These are all the documents the madam wanted. If the madam reviews them and there are no issues, I'll arrange for someone to meet with you at noon."

"Thank you for your efforts, Sir."

Rong Dai nodded, discarding the strange feeling in her heart and seriously looking over the investigation reports in her hands.

The thick stack of documents was half blackmail material on that media outlet.

The rest were her and that foreign man's test reports, as well as some investigation reports on related personnel that were needed.

"Please go ahead and arrange it, Sir. The documents are very detailed."

She finally spoke after a few minutes.

Huo Ersi nodded in acknowledgment. Looking at her, he asked, "Does the madam play polo? I set up a field recently."

"If the madam is interested, we can go experience it in the morning."

Seeing him extend an invitation, Rong Dai put the documents down and nodded, "I'll follow the sir's arrangements. I probably can't wander the streets of Paris freely these next few days either."

Huo Ersi smiled and nodded, ordering his secretary to go make arrangements.

"The madam can bring her friend. When the matter is resolved, I can arrange for someone to accompany the madam out to experience the streets."

Rong Dai laughed faintly with a sigh: "Then that probably won't be until next time."

Huo Ersi was really a bit strange today. She didn't dare get too close with such a dangerous man either, so she could only make excuses to decline.
