641 New discovery (2)
After Huo ting hung up the phone, a new phone call came in immediately.
“It’s me.” A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone. She said, ” I’m back. Are you free tonight? Let’s meet.”
“Who are you?” Huo ting asked coldly.
The other party was silent.
Huo ting felt that it was simply inexplicable.
This was a private number. If he didn’t have a saved number, he wouldn’t be able to call.
“I’m Yao Xinyi.”
It was her.
“Is there something?” Huo ting asked coldly.
Yao Xinyi originally had a lot of things to say to him, but at this moment, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on her, and her entire body turned cold.
“Can we meet and have a meal together?”
“I’ve been very busy recently, I don’t have time.” Huo ting frowned and said in a deep voice.
He did not want to have anything to do with Yao Xinyi anymore.
How could Yao Xinyi not know that he had declined?
She didn’t get angry and just said softly,”Huo ting, it’s like this. At that time, uncle Huo gave me an object.” He said that if nothing happens to the Huo family, this item will be useless. But if something happens, he will hand this item over to you.”
After she finished, she didn’t wait for Huo ting to answer and said, ” “Huo ting, I just want to fulfill uncle Huo’s last wish and have no other intentions. If it wasn’t for this, I probably wouldn’t even have come back.”
Her voice suddenly became low, and she seemed very sad.
“Where are you?” Huo ting also didn’t agree to eat.
Yao Xinyi laughed and said, ” it’s just the time for a meal. Are you not willing? Huo ting, even if something happened between us, we’re still friends who grew up together. Don’t you think you’re being too heartless?”
Ever since Yao Xinyi left the country two years ago, the two of them had not kept in touch.
Moreover, her going abroad was actually driven away by Huo ting.
At that time, Huo ting and su Mianmian’s relationship wasn’t very stable. Because of her appearance, the two of them had a Cold War.
Therefore, Huo ting didn’t have a good impression of her.
However, this matter was somewhat beyond Huo ting’s expectations. This matter was related to Huo Zhenyuan, so he could not ignore it.
After thinking for a moment, Huo ting said, ” “Alright, see you tonight.”
“I’ll send the address to your phone later. See you tonight.”
After hanging up the phone, su Mianmian just happened to walk towards Huo ting.
He didn’t know if it was because he had done something guilty, but Huo ting was a little nervous after seeing su Mianmian.
He was not afraid of his wife.
“Uncle, who are you talking to on the phone?”
In fact, su Mianmian was just asking casually.
Huo ting was indeed shocked. Of course, he didn’t show anything on his face.
“There’s something going on at the company, so I’ll have to go out. You can have dinner with the children.”
Su Mianmian was a little confused after hearing this.
Because Huo ting had been working at home recently, he rarely went to the company, and at night, he would accompany the mother and son for dinner.
So su Mianmian was very surprised when he suddenly went out.
However, she did not ask further.
Su Mianmian smiled and said, ” go ahead, I made a cake. I’ll leave a piece for you later. Come back and eat it tonight.
okay, don’t give Dongdong too much. He’s getting new teeth recently, so he can’t eat too much sweet food.
“I know.” Su Mianmian said.
......
At 7:30 in the evening, Huo tingru arrived at the restaurant he had agreed to meet Yao Xinyi at.
When he arrived, Yao Xinyi was already there.
Seeing him walk over, Yao Xinyi smiled and stood up. As she moved, the light blue vintage lace Palace dress she was wearing swayed gently. The earrings of the same color on her ears also swayed with her.
“Ting, you’re here?” Yao Xinyi said with a smile.
Huo ting glanced at her and nodded slightly. He walked to the opposite side of her, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
Yao Xinyi pushed the menu in front of her to him and said, ” this restaurant’s steak is pretty good. It’s comparable to Country M’s steamed buns.
Huo ting directly pushed the menu to the side and said lightly, ” “You better give me the thing first.”
“Ting Junjun.” Yao Xinyi looked at him and revealed a bitter smile. “Don’t tell me you have to ask me for something before you even eat? I’ll pass it to you after we’re done eating, okay?”
Huo ting frowned, hesitated for a moment, called the waiter, and casually ordered a few dishes.
Yao Xinyi also ordered two dishes with a smile, and they were actually Huo ting’s favorite dishes.
He looked at her indifferently and didn’t say anything.
The dishes were served quickly, and the meal was particularly dull. Although Yao Xinyi would start a conversation and ask a question or two from time to time, Huo ting would either not answer, or nod or shake his head. The dinner table almost became Yao Xinyi’s one-man show.
However, looking at Yao Xinyi’s expression, she didn’t seem to care too much. Even if Huo ting ignored her, she could still maintain an elegant smile and maintain her temperament and upbringing as a lady from a noble family.
After more than half an hour, they finally finished their meal.
Huo ting wiped his hands with a napkin and asked, ” “Can you give me the thing now?”
ting Junjun! Yao Xinyi furrowed her brows in distress. you really don’t give me any face at all. If it wasn’t for this thing, you wouldn’t even be willing to come out and have this meal with me, right?”
Huo ting looked up at her and said lightly, ” “I’m already married, and I love my wife and child very much. This time I’m giving face to this old man, but this is also the last time I’ll have a meal with you alone.”
Yao Xinyi’s expression turned ugly in an instant, but she quickly burst out laughing.
“I’m just lying to you. You don’t think I still have feelings for you, do you?” She looked at Huo ting and said seriously, ” it’s all in the past. Don’t worry, I’ll find someone who loves me with all my heart.
Huo ting was expressionless and didn’t even nod.
Yao Xinyi didn’t mind. She smiled, picked up the paper bag on the side, and handed it to Huo ting.
Huo ting took the paper bag and took out a beautifully wrapped wooden box.
He opened it and found that it was a Chinese Chess set.
The Chinese Chess set made of Jade actually felt warm to the touch. It was obviously made of the best Jade.
Huo ting grabbed a handsome chess piece in his hand and felt the smooth touch with his thumb, and his expression was dazed for a moment.
uncle Huo asked me to get this custom-made for you. He said that he misses the past. Actually, he’s always wanted to play chess with you again, but he didn’t expect him to leave so suddenly. I’ll hand this chess piece to you.
Huo ting grabbed the chess piece with an unpredictable expression on his face.
Did Yao Xinyi mean that the old man regretted his actions before he passed away?
She wanted to repair their relationship?
“Do you know what happened to uncle Huo? I’ve been doing research all this time, so I didn’t know, ” Yao Xinyi said as she started crying. this is too sudden, waah.
