Jin Xuyuan frowned deeply when he heard the line go dead. Huo Xiang's background was not simple?
How could it not be simple?
Did he know something?
Jin Xuyuan could not help but call Xiang Nan out of curiosity. When he heard that Xiang Nan's phone was off, he hung up with a dark face.
Jin Xuyuan contemplated before he walked out of the office to go to Xiang Nan's place. When he passed by Tong Yu's office, he noticed that the door was unlatched, so he could hear Tong Yu talking on the phone.
When he heard the word 'surrender', Jin Xuyuan subconsciously stopped in his tracks.
Tong Yu was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his back facing the door. He was talking on the phone. "... Okay, Brother Huo. I got it. I'll post Huo Xiang's condition online. Don't worry. This matter will blow over soon."
Before long, Tong Yu hung up the phone. He was rather surprised to hear that Xiang Nan's younger brother had surrendered.
After all, Xiang Nan had refused to admit to it in the afternoon.
He turned around and looked up to see that the door was ajar. It seemed like someone had passed by.
Tong Yu narrowed his eyes quizzically. However, he quickly averted his eyes and did not take it to heart.
He picked up the landline phone on the desk and called the marketing department at the same time.
Shortly after Xiang Nan's clarification post was published, Tong Yu arranged for someone from the marketing department to log in to Huo Xiang's VIP account to explain to the netizens that Huo Xiang was fine.
Huo Yao was bored at the hospital, so she checked Weibo. She had seen Xiang Nan's post and felt nothing about his decision to retire from the industry.
However, it was a happy ending to one less person who had caused trouble for her little princess.
Min Yu sent her a WeChat message asking if she wanted to head out for dinner. He happened to be passing by the hospital.
Huo Yao raised her brow after reading the message. She replied, "Okay." Then she jumped off the bed and put on her coat. She said to Xiang Nan, who was an internet addict, "Brother Xiang, I'm going for a walk downstairs."
Huo Xiang was playing games. "Uh huh." It took him a while to respond. By the time he raised his head, Huo Yao had already left the ward.
Huo Xiang went quiet.
Huo Xiang scratched his head before he changed his posture and started another game.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door. He thought it was the caretaker who came in to tidy up the room, so after he said yes, he was still playing with his phone with his head down.
Huo Xiang's hand froze when he saw a pair of shiny black leather shoes next to the bed. He raised his head with a look of surprise on his handsome face. "Uncle... Uncle Changfeng... Why are you here?"
His voice sounded a little unnatural.
Only the heavens knew that other than his eldest uncle, the person he feared the most was Uncle Changfeng.
Huo Changfeng raised his eyebrows and placed the fruit basket he had bought on the table beside him. Then, he pulled a chair over and sat down. "Why? Am I not welcome?"
Huo Xiang hurriedly put his phone under his pillow and sat up straight. He pursed his lips into a smile. "Uncle Changfeng, I'm more than happy to see you."
Huo Changfeng did not expose the young master's hypocrisy. He glanced at the empty bed next to him and asked, "Why are you alone? Where's your sister?"
"She said she went downstairs for a walk. Didn't you bump into her?" replied Huo Xiang honestly.
Huo Changfeng was taken aback. He shook his head. "Maybe we missed each other when we were taking the elevator."
