My Auntie's Name Is Qin Ning (1)
My Auntie's Name Is Qin Ning (1)
One of the twins pretended to eat, while the other one pretended to sleep. Even Huo Mian had no way of dealing with them.
When they got home, it was almost half-past ten.
Huo Mian's mother took the twins upstairs for bed, while Huo Mian and Qin Chu were planning their trip to the United States in the downstairs living room.
At this moment, Zhixin came home...
"Hey guys, why aren't you asleep yet?
"How come you're home so late?" Huo Mian looked up at Zhixin.
"Eh... Is it late? It's only ten o'clock..."
"Ten o'clock? How many times have you been back after ten? Were you with clients or colleagues?"
"Um..."
"Be careful with your answer. I can easily confirm it with some investigation," Huo Mian threatened.
"Come on, Sis... Why are you so nosy? Can't I go out with my college classmates?"
"Were they really your college classmates? I'll call Bella and ask." Huo Mian picked up her cell phone as she was talking.
Zhixin was so frightened that he immediately jogged over.
"Um, don't. Don't call her, or it will be so embarrassing..."
"Were you really with Bella?" Huo Mian laughed.
She was just deliberately trying to draw out the truth and didn't expect Zhixin was really with Bella.
"Well… remember how I treated Bella to dinner that night? She ended up treating me tonight... We went to a farmyard in the eastern suburbs to eat cooktop fish. It tasted very good. I'll take you guys there when you are free."
"Forget it... You just enjoy yourself... But how's Bella doing right now?
"Sis, what do you mean by that...?"
"I mean her boyfriend..." Huo Mian supported Zhixin's pursuit of Bella, but if Bella already had a boyfriend, then he would be butting into another person's relationship.
"Her boyfriend cheated on her... So they broke up."
"I knew it..." Huo Mian guessed this already.
"That's good. Then here comes your chance..." Mr. Qin cut in.
"Ha, thanks for wishing me luck." Zhixin looked very happy.
"Come here and sit. We have something to tell you."
"Okay."
Zhixin then took a seat beside Qin Chu.
"Your sister and I are going to bring the twins to the United States next week to visit my parents."
"So soon?" Zhixin was a little surprised.
"Yes, and we would like you to help handle the company's affairs during this time. With important matters, we can guide you from a distance. Don't worry about it."
"Okay, you don't need to worry about that. I also have Bella and Yang who can help me... You can rest assured... Also, there's no rush. Do spend more time with your family since you rarely get a chance to visit. By the way, remember to say hello to your parents for me." Zhixin sincerely laughed.
"Sure."
"Does Mom know you're leaving?" Zhixin looked at Huo Mian.
"Yes, I mentioned it to her the other day... After we leave, you and Mom should also be careful... After all, there are people spying on us in the dark, and we are in the open..."
"Don't worry, Sis. Chu even has bodyguards protecting Mom when she buys groceries. We will be fine. You have been working so hard and rarely take vacations, so do have a good time..."
Zhixin was indeed a considerate man who always made Huo Mian feel warm inside.
"I will." Huo Mian tenderly touched Zhixin's head.
Then the couple stood up and went upstairs to rest...
- At the Huo Family Mansion -
"Siqian... I saw you didn't have much to eat tonight, so I've cooked some wontons for you."
Yan Ruoxi came over with a soup bowl and went to the study room.
"Ruoxi, you'd better go back home now, as it's already very late. I'll ask somebody to drive you home."
"I want to stay."
"You can't."
"Why not. Mo Xue'er has..." Yan Ruoxi was obviously not convinced.
"I mean what I say. You better leave soon."
Huo Siqian had been in a bad mood and have been suffering from insomnia. He really had no mood to coax the little girl and play with her.
At this moment, his subordinate came in.
"Boss... There's news."
Huo Siqian took a look at Yan Ruoxi...
"I won't go, I want to listen."
Huo Siqian was helpless. He took a look at his subordinate, which meant that if it wasn't particularly important, he could speak out.
The subordinate hesitated a while before he opened his mouth to speak.
"We just found out that Miss Huo and her husband booked their tickets to the United States."
"To the United States? When are they leaving?" Huo Siqian was shocked.
"Next week."
