"Okay. Just let me know if you need anything."
"Okay."
"By the way, are you going to attend your wife's graduation ceremony in two days?" Shen Tingxi changed the topic to a more relaxed one.
At the mention of Shuxin, Huo Yanqing's furrowed brows slowly relaxed. "Yes."
"Ningning has also graduated. What do you think we should buy for them as graduation gifts?"
Huo Yanqing had never thought about this question. "I don't know."
"Could it be that you were planning to go there alone?"
"Yes."
Shen Tingxi said bitterly, "Why would Shuxin like an old man like you who doesn't understand romance?"
Hearing the word "old", Huo Yanqing frowned. Mu Ning Jing was the same age as Xin 'er, and he was the same age as Shen Tingxi. "Aren't you old?"
"I am. So we need to create more romance to make up for the shortcomings of our age. If you don't believe me, you can go home and ask your nephew. Ask him how the couples in his school celebrated their graduation ceremony."
"No need to ask. Xin 'er likes mature and steady men."
"I don't want to talk to you. If you don't prepare, I'll do it myself."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yanqing pondered for a moment before he started the car and went back to the company.
…
Tingzhu Villas.
In the study, Huo Jibai was reading a book. Suddenly, he heard someone knocking on his desk. He looked up and saw Huo Yanqing standing in front of his desk. Huo Jibai subconsciously sat up straight. Why did Uncle Wu suddenly come?
Huo Jibai greeted him respectfully. "Uncle Wu."
"Yes." Huo Yanqing responded. He withdrew his hand from the desk and put it in his trouser pocket. "How did you do on the final exam?"
Huo Jibai thought that Uncle Wu came to ask about his studies. He had never taken any exams before. This semester, his grades had been improving, and his final exam results were very good.
Huo Jibai said proudly, "Second in the entire department."
Huo Yanqing nodded. "That's right."
Huo Yanqing rarely praised others. When Huo Jibai suddenly heard him praise him, even though it was just two words, it made him happier than the pile of praises from the teachers in school.
At the end of the day, Huo Jibai was still an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy. He couldn't be as expressionless as Huo Yanqing. A charming smile appeared on his face. "I'll work harder."
"Yes." Huo Yanqing raised his eyebrows. "Who's in first place?"
The smile on Huo Jibai's face froze, and his expression immediately withered. "Shuxin."
At the mention of this, Huo Jibai felt a little indignant. Shuxin never went to school and only showed up during exams. However, her final exam results were still better than his. It didn't make sense!
Huo Yanqing's deep eyes flashed with a hint of a smile. He didn't hide the proud and doting expression on his face.
When I got second place, you were expressionless. When Shuxin got first place, you were so happy. Uncle Wu, you were too biased.
Huo Jibai was cursing in his heart when Huo Yanqing said, "Remember to call me Auntie in the future."
Huo Jibai lowered his head and didn't say anything.
When Huo Yanqing saw that Huo Jibai didn't say anything, the smile on his face faded, and his eyes darkened.
Shuxin and Huo Jibai were classmates. This made him feel that he was an old cow eating young grass. He had to change the way he addressed Huo Jibai and call him Auntie. At least, Shuxin and he were of the same generation. He would feel a lot more comfortable hearing that.
He said coldly, "Didn't you hear me?"
