Chapter 194: 190. Product Named 'Yong Ge'! (Please subscribe, please vote for monthly tickets!)

Since Liu Lu had already spoken the words, she naturally could not go back on them; besides, since the other party had just gifted a whole pile of presents, eating two meals was nothing.

Zhang Sicheng remained silently quiet the whole time; in any case, he always felt something was not quite right, but he could not figure out what was wrong, so he could only eat in silence.

While eating, Huo Zhiyuan and Liu Lu chatted very happily, laughing out loud from time to time; it was clear that the two of them were getting along quite well.

After lunch, Liu Lu refused Huo Zhiyuan's offer to help wash the dishes; although there was a dishwasher in the house, Liu Lu had never been used to using such things, always feeling they did not wash things clean—this was purely a personal psychological factor.

Liu Lu and Huo Zhiyuan chatted for a while longer before going to work, while Zhang Sicheng left immediately after finishing his meal, as there was a whole pile of matters waiting for him at the company.

Zhang Ran and Huo Zhiyuan sat in the gazebo, leisurely drinking tea.

"Are you not going to the company?" Zhang Ran asked curiously.

Huo Zhiyuan stretched comfortably and said, "I want to take a break for this period; in any case, the company only has those few matters, so it doesn't require me to be there every day."

"That is fine too, get some good rest, don't overwork yourself," Zhang Ran nodded and said.

Huo Zhiyuan said happily, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Zhang."

"Haha, why are you thanking me? Just because I said a couple of nice words, you have to thank me?" Zhang Ran said casually.

Huo Zhiyuan smiled without speaking, just sitting quietly by Zhang Ran's side, watching the scene of curling smoke from the kitchens of every household in the residential complex, and for a moment, she felt somewhat dazed.

At this moment, Huo Zhiyuan suddenly wished for this instant to stop completely; how wonderful it would be if it could be like this for a lifetime! This was the life she wanted!

Just as Huo Zhiyuan had this thought, her dream was immediately shattered.

"Brother Zhang, President Huo." Zhao Hu walked over, accompanied by He Yong.

Huo Zhiyuan glared at Zhao Hu with some annoyance, leaving Zhao Hu feeling baffled; had he not been doing his best these past two days? Could it be that this President Huo still had not forgiven him?

Zhang Ran did not see Huo Zhiyuan's expression and said to the two of them, "What is the matter?"

"Huzi found Su Yu and has also investigated the matter clearly," He Yong briefly explained the reason for Zhao Hu's arrival.

Zhang Ran looked at Huo Zhiyuan and said, "How come you don't look concerned at all?"

Huo Zhiyuan said, "Of course I am concerned, it is just that I don't care that much; in any case, the matter has already happened, and I can roughly guess who it is. I believe you can guess it too, Brother Zhang."

Zhang Ran nodded noncommittally, then signaled for Zhao Hu to speak.

Zhao Hu hurriedly said, "It is like this: when I first found this Su Yu, she insisted that she had let it slip unintentionally, but after I used some methods, she confessed honestly."

"Is it Tian Yaohui?" Huo Zhiyuan said indifferently.

"Uh... President Huo guessed correctly, it is indeed Tian Yaohui, or rather, Hao Yuan," Zhao Hu said.

Zhang Ran did not show any look of surprise; he could actually guess some of it, as these matters were too coincidental. Although it could be explained away completely, it always felt a bit off.

As for how Zhao Hu knew it was Hao Yuan, that is to say, in modern society, no one is a fool, especially when doing things that skirt the edges of the law.

When Su Yu learned what Hao Yuan had asked her to do, she knew immediately it was not a good thing, and she was afraid of being implicated in the end, so she recorded a video without Hao Yuan knowing.

Hao Yuan probably never expected that this former secretary, whose spirit had been worn down by life, would still have such thoughts even with a large sum of money placed in front of her.

"What do you plan to do?" Zhang Ran looked at Huo Zhiyuan and asked.

Huo Zhiyuan put on the appearance of a weak woman and said, "I... I don't know. You make the decision for me, Brother Zhang."

Zhang Ran was left speechless by her antics, "Alright, how old are you now, still acting like you used to."

Hearing these words from Zhang Ran, Huo Zhiyuan's eyes dimmed slightly; yes, she was already forty.

Zhang Ran also realized he had said the wrong thing; a woman's age is a taboo!

"I apologize, I said the wrong thing, I will make it up to you," Zhang Ran said hurriedly.

Huo Zhiyuan recovered quickly; in fact, she had long been mentally prepared.

"Then what does Brother Zhang want to use to make amends?" Huo Zhiyuan said with a grin.

Zhang Ran looked at her and said, "How about this, in a while I will find you some skincare and beauty products that will make you look many years younger."

Upon hearing this, Huo Zhiyuan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, "Really?"

Zhang Ran said, "Of course it is real, when have I ever lied to you?"

"Thank you, Brother Zhang."

"I say, what is wrong with you women? You are clearly very beautiful and your age is completely unnoticeable, so why are you so petty?" Zhang Ran complained.

Huo Zhiyuan gave a light huff and said, "It's not for you men to look at." She said this very softly, and Zhang Ran did not hear it clearly.

"Leave Tian Yaohui aside for now, we will talk after 'Yong Ge' passes the review," Zhang Ran ignored Huo Zhiyuan and said to He Yong and the others.

Upon hearing this, He Yong was stunned; was Zhang Ran calling him?

Seeing his expression, Zhang Ran immediately patted his forehead and said with some 'malicious intent', "I forgot to tell you about this matter; I had already named that product 'Yong Ge' before you were even released from prison. How about it? This name is not bad, right? As long as there are no other better products on the market, you can be considered to have left your own mark on this era."

He Yong did not know what to say; he never expected that Zhang Ran would actually name the product 'Yong Ge'!

Huo Zhiyuan asked curiously, "What is 'Yong Ge'?"

Zhang Ran coughed and said, "It is the same kind of thing as Yaotian Pharmaceutical's star product, Dragon Tiger Ointment, only the effect is better than theirs."

Huo Zhiyuan understood immediately and shot Zhang Ran a glare.

"Um, Brother Zhang, can we change the name?" He Yong said dryly.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu said expectantly, "How about we call it 'Hu Ge' instead?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the look Zhang Ran gave him, and he immediately laughed sheepishly, "I was just joking, 'Yong Ge' is better."

After saying this, Zhao Hu looked at He Yong with eyes full of envy; although Zhang Ran's words seemed like a joke, Zhao Hu understood that if this product really performed as Zhang Ran said, then He Yong might truly leave his mark on this era!

After all, Zhang Ran's name for it was based on He Yong; once it was promoted a little, everyone would know.

How could Zhao Hu not be envious of such a thing? He was even a little jealous!

Watching Zhao Hu's envious gaze, He Yong suddenly felt, how did it seem like it was actually quite good?
