While Shuxin was still in a daze, Yao Huiqin spoke again, "Xin 'er, is that you?"
Shuxin quickly replied, "It's me, Auntie Yao. Are you looking for me?"
"Why are you calling me Auntie Yao?"
Shu Xin: "…" What else could it be? Could it be that he had to call her mom?
"You can call me whatever you want, as long as it's easy for you to say." Yao Huiqin's voice was tinged with a hint of a smile. "Let's have dinner together tonight? I'm almost at the Huo Corporation. I heard from Little Five that your company is also in the Huo Corporation. I'll ask Little Five to meet you together later. "
Shuxin, "…" He was already on his way. How could she refuse?
However, she couldn't let Huo Yanqing come to her place. Otherwise, she didn't know what Shen Aoteng would think of her.
Huo Yanqing was a low-key and mysterious person who rarely appeared in public. Zhu Wenwen probably didn't know him, but Shen Aoteng did. Huo Yanqing had given them an award at the design competition. With his distinguished status, it was easy for people to overthink if he came to pick her up from work.
Didn't he say that he would only pretend for one night? Why was there a follow-up?
Shuxin hung up the phone and saw that it was already past five o 'clock. It was almost time to get off work, so she said goodbye to Shen Aoteng and Zhu Wenwen and left the company to go to the Huo Corporation opposite.
Shuxin waited for a while at the entrance of the Huo Corporation building, but Yao Huiqin didn't come. Instead, Huo Yanqing and Song Li came first.
Song Li helped Huo Yanqing out. When he saw Shuxin, he turned to Huo Yanqing and said, "The Fifth Lord, Miss Shu is at the door."
Shuxin saw Huo Yanqing and greeted him with a smile. "Fifth Uncle."
"Yes." Huo Yanqing nodded slightly.
Song Li sent Huo Yanqing to Shuxin's side and said tactfully, "Miss Shu, I still have something to do, so I'll leave The Fifth Lord to you."
As soon as Song Li left, a Bentley stopped at the door.
Yao Huiqin poked his head out of the passenger window. "Little Five, Xin 'er, get in the car. It's hot outside."
Shuxin was about to help Huo Yanqing walk away. Just as she held his arm, he turned to ask her, "Are you hurt?"
Shuxin knew that Huo Yanqing must have smelled the scent of iodophor. His sense of smell was too sensitive. "It's just a scratch on my arm. It's nothing serious."
Huo Yanqing furrowed his brows. "How did you get scratched?"
Shuxin didn't want to tell Huo Yanqing about Shu Mengling. After all, it wasn't something to be proud of. However, she didn't expect him to ask about it in such detail. She didn't like to lie, so she could only tell him the truth. "Shu Mengling went to my company in the afternoon and she scratched me."
Huo Yanqing furrowed his brows and was silent for two seconds. "… Okay, let's go. Get in the car."
Yao Huiqin turned to look at the two in the backseat. No matter how he looked at them, they were a match made in heaven. He was happy from the bottom of his heart. "What were you two whispering about outside just now?"
Shuxin, "…" Couple?
Huo Yanqing didn't seem to notice Yao Huiqin's inappropriate choice of words. He said indifferently, "Nothing much. Where are we going to eat?"
"To Xin 'er's house." Yao Huiqin looked at Shuxin excitedly and said, "Xin 'er, Little Five said that your home-cooked dishes are delicious. Can you make a meal for Ma … Auntie to satisfy her cravings?"
Shuxin didn't expect Huo Yanqing to say that her cooking was delicious in front of Yao Huiqin. She was a little surprised, but more than that, she was happy to be praised. Her heart was filled with joy.
However, they didn't prepare any ingredients at home. If they went to the supermarket now … Fifth Uncle couldn't see and there were too many people at the supermarket.
Yao Huiqin seemed to understand Shuxin's dilemma. He said, "I've prepared all the ingredients. They're in the trunk."
Shuxin, "…" He didn't even intend to give her a chance to refuse, did he?
The car drove directly into the neighborhood and stopped in front of the apartment building.
