Huo Yulin was stunned. It took him a while to recover. "Didn't you say you would lend me your car for two days?"
"Young Master Lin, you must have misheard. That's impossible," denied Huo Changfeng with a straight face.
Huo Yulin went speechless. "..."
How could he go back on his word like this?
Since when did Uncle Changfeng become like this?
Huo Changfeng coughed deeply. He knocked on the table again and gestured for Huo Yulin to return the car keys.
Huo Yulin felt even more conflicted. He raised his head and said, "Uncle Changfeng, you can't go back on your word just because my little sister isn't around."
After all, he had watched Huo Yulin grow up.
"Uh huh. Did I?" Huo Changfeng's voice was soft. Then, his tone changed and became slightly disdainful. "Young Master Lin, you're an adult. How dare you compare yourself to your little sister?"
Huo Yulin went speechless.
So, love would eventually disappear, right?
In the end, Huo Yulin took out the car keys from his pocket and handed them over.
He simply did not want to be hurt again.
He had thoroughly experienced the difference in treatment his parents had given to his second and fourth children back at home.
When Huo Yao came back, the atmosphere in the private room was very harmonious. She raised her brow and pulled out a chair to sit down.
After dinner, Huo Changfeng wanted to chat with Huo Yao for a while. However, his subordinates called him, so he left before long.
Cheng Ming was waiting for them at the entrance when they left the restaurant. There was a solemn look on his face, but it was hard to notice if one did not look closely.
Huo Yao contemplated for two seconds before she said, "Uncle Cheng, you go ahead. I'll take Brother Yulin's car."
Cheng Ming looked at Huo Yao and contemplated for two seconds. Then he nodded without any hesitation. "Okay. I'll make a move then."
Huo Yao acknowledged him softly.
Soon, Cheng Ming left in his car.
Huo Yulin's eyes looked deep. However, when Huo Yao turned to look at him, he composed himself and said, "Give me a minute. I'll get the car."
Then he walked to the parking lot.
After he got into the car, he did not start it immediately. Instead, he took out his phone and called Cheng Ming.
Just now in the private room, Uncle Changfeng had picked up the phone several times. Obviously, something had happened.
Not long after, the call was connected.
Cheng Ming seemed to have expected that he would call, so he didn't hide it, "Someone smuggled a batch of weapons in the name of the Huo Family and even used the Huo Family's shipping route. Now they are detained by the authorities, and the chief steward has already gone over."
Huo Yulin frowned. "Is there a mole?"
"I'm not sure. I'm still investigating." Cheng Ming's voice was deep and he did not look too good. After a pause, he added, "Young Master Lin, you don't have to worry too much. With the Head Chief here, this matter should be resolved very quickly."
Huo Yulin nodded. "Let me know if anything happens."
"Alright."
Huo Yulin hung up and contemplated for two seconds before he started the car and drove out of the parking lot.
After Huo Yao got into the car, she did not pay much attention to Huo Yulin's expression. Instead, she was replying to Yang Yi's text on her phone.
[I'm outside right now. I don't have a computer with me. Are you in a hurry?]
When Yang Yi received Huo Yao's reply, he hurriedly typed: [Yes, I am. Miss Huo, when will you be free?]
Huo Yao's fingers rubbed the screen as she replied that she would be in about 20 minutes.
