Chapter 106 - Falling Ill (1)
The project over at City Hai, much like Huo YanXiao had mentioned, was a bit on the tricky side .
As such, after his arrival, Huo YanXiao poured almost all of his attention onto this demanding project .
As time moved forward and progress about this resort project continued to be reported on the news, the project was finally ready to commence two plus weeks later .
During this period of time, Nie AnAn had received a call from Huo YanXiao every afternoon . Sometimes, when he returned to the hotel early enough in the evening, they’d even video chat .
Nie AnAn’s initial worries had relaxed toward the end after being able to get hold of Huo YanXiao on a daily basis . She only hoped that Qin ZiMing and Mrs . Qin would give up on their plans after seeing that Huo YanXiao had already successfully joined the Qin’s .
According to the itinerary, Huo YanXiao would be at the ribbon-cutting ceremony with the partnering developer on the day that the Qin’s City Hai Resort commenced officially .
At 10 o’clock that morning, reporters had already arrived outside of the resort . Employees on the Qin’s had all arrived as well, waiting for the ribbon-cutting ceremony to begin .
The CEO of the partnering company had on a full suit . His cheeks were a healthy red glow, and he was doing interviews with the reporters from the media .
“Boss Ma, please tell us about your future plans? Words had it that you intended to continue your partnership with the Qin’s?”

“Actually, I mostly wanted to work with Mr . Huo . After working with him closely for the last month, I quite like his work style,” said Boss Ma .
As he was talking, his secretary whispered something into his ear . Boss Ma looked down at his watch; it was already time for the ribbon-cutting ceremony but Huo YanXiao was nowhere to be seen .
He frowned slightly . The reporters noticed that as well .
“Boss Ma, does Boss Huo being late signify some kind of issues with your future cooperation?”
Just when everyone was wondering about what was going on, a director from the Qin’s had finally arrived .
Director Gao walked over to Boss Ma and said to him, “Boss Ma . I do apologize . Boss Huo fell ill this morning and he had me come here in his place…”

His words caught the attention of the reporters immediately . “Director Gao, Mr . Huo has always been the type who’d work even when he was running a high fever . Is it some sudden illness that kept Mr . Huo from coming to the opening ceremony today? Is he on his way to the hospital already?”
As everyone were throwing out questions, someone chimed in –
“I saw an ambulance outside of the hotel that Mr . Huo stays in on my way over . ”
His words shocked everyone there . “Director Gao, please tell us whether Mr . Huo had an accident?”
Director Gao ignored the question from the reporter . Turning to Boss Ma, he said, “Boss Ma, let’s carry on . ”
Boss Ma was worried about Huo YanXiao as well, but he had no choice except to suppress his worry for the time being and follow through with their agenda .
