As he watched the car driving away, Huo Jinyan’s expression was no longer as gloomy as before. In fact, he even seemed a little livelier.
Chu Ting appeared from out of nowhere. “President Huo, Second Master is calling.”
Without turning his head, Huo Jinyan walked towards the car. “Ignore it.”
After saying this coldly, he got into the car.
Chu Ting hung the call and got into the driver’s seat.
“President Huo, are we heading home?”
“Yes.”
Huo Jinyan looked up towards the food street, still bustling with people.
“Have someone follow Lu Ning, and don’t let her find out.”
“Understood!”
Wei Mengxuan and Wei Yuntong were still in a daze when they returned.
“You two… what’s wrong?”
Zhao Qi raised her eyes from her magazine to look at the two of them.
A servant helped them take off their coats. Wei Mengxuan walked over and plopped on the sofa, looking at Zhao Qi. “Mom! We’ve got a big scoop today!” Not taking her seriously, Zhao Qi resumed browsing the magazine in her hand.
Wei Mengxuan had some scoop every other day—if she saw it, it was newsworthy. Zhao Qi was already accustomed to her antics.
Discontented, Wei Mengxuan looked at Zhao Qi. “Mom! Listen to me! It’s really a big one!”
Wei Yuntong hurriedly sat down, hoping to stop her.
“Sister’s only exaggerating, it’s not anything so dramatic. We’re just speculating, so it’s fine if you don’t listen.”
Her eyes widening, Wei Mengxuan gaped at her. “How am I exaggerating?! I’ve never seen Huo Jinyan with a girl in the capital for so many years, and this girl even spoon-fed him! If this isn’t big news, what is?! How is this exaggerated? This matter itself is outrageous!”
In the process of refuting her, she had already said it out loud. Wei Yuntong did not even have time to clam her mouth.
The magazine dropped from Zhao Qi’s hands as she looked at them in disbelief. “Who? Who did you just mention?”
Being someone who did not know the meaning of restraint, Wei Mengxuan immediately spilled the beans.
“Huo Jinyan.”
“Huo Jinyan? You mean Huo Jinyan from the Huo family?”
Zhao Qi was even more surprised than Wei Mengxuan was. Seeing her so shocked by the revelation, Wei Mengxuan stood up and hurried to comfort her. “Mom, have a seat. Don’t be so surprised.”
Wei Yuntong glanced at her. ‘
Zhao Qi sat down, still incredulous; she turned to look at Wei Yuntong. “Is your sister telling the truth? Did she make it up? Or did she just imagine it?”
When she heard that, Wei Mengxuan pouted, “Mom!”
Wei Yuntong nodded. “It’s the truth. We did see Huo Jinyan, but everything else regarding their relationship is only our guess. What Sister said doesn’t count.”
Clicking her tongue, Wei Mengxuan glared at her resentfully. “I haven’t even said it yet, so how can it not count?! I think my guess is very reasonable—she must be Huo Jinyan’s lover!”
At home, Wei Mengxuan let her guard down a little and simply said whatever came to her mind.
When Zhao Qi heard this, she hurriedly tugged at her. “Lower your voice!
Explain the exact situation to me.”
She wanted to hear it, but she was afraid that someone would leak it. She quickly turned around and barked some orders, “Zhi’zhi, get everyone out and close the door.”
Zhi’zhi, who was standing outside the door, responded and had everyone in the room leave.
Wei Mengxuan leaned back on the sofa. “Is there a need to be so worked up about it? Huo Jinyan doesn’t seem half as scary as you guys make him out to be; he looked quite easy-going when I saw him today.” Hearing this, Zhao Qi could not help but want to scoff.
“Easy-going?”
She reallv could not associate such a term with the iron-fisted King of Hell of the Huo family.
“What’s wrong? Why did you have everyone go out? What happened? Did
Mengxuan cause trouble again?”
