Huo Jibai lowered the car window and Song Li's smiling face appeared in front of him. "Young Master Xiao Bai, The Fifth Lord is here to pick up Miss Shu."
Huo Jibai looked beside Song Li and saw Huo Yanqing's slender figure standing in the dark. The neon lights shone on his face, which seemed to have been sculpted by God himself, and he exuded a cold and powerful aura.
Huo Jibai opened the car door and got out of the car. He greeted him respectfully, "Fifth Uncle."
"Yes," Huo Yanqing responded. Song Li helped him to the car and bowed slightly. "Xin 'er, come here."
Shuxin wanted to go over to Huo Yanqing when she saw him, but her body refused to listen to her. Her limbs were weak. "Fifth Uncle … I don't have the strength …"
Huo Yanqing frowned slightly. He bent over and carried Shuxin out.
Song Li helped Huo Yanqing to the black Rolls-Royce.
Huo Yanqing took two steps and stopped. "Xiao Bai, follow me."
"Okay." Huo Jibai followed him reluctantly.
Song Li drove while Huo Jibai sat in the front passenger seat. Huo Yanqing and Shuxin sat in the backseat.
"Why aren't you home yet? It's so late." Huo Yanqing's deep voice sounded in the car.
Huo Jibai turned around and glanced at the backseat. Shuxin was obediently leaning in Fifth Uncle's arms and had fallen asleep.
Huo Jibai quickly looked away and sat properly. He looked straight ahead and replied, "I'm having dinner with friends."
Huo Yanqing grunted and did not say anything else.
When the car reached a fork in the road, Song Li asked, "Where is The Fifth Lord going?"
Huo Yanqing said, "Let's go back to Tingzhu Manor first."
About forty minutes later, the car stopped at the gate of Tingzhu Villa.
Huo Yanqing said to Huo Jibai, "Rest early."
"Yes." Huo Jibai opened the door and got out of the car. When he closed the door, he couldn't help but glance at the backseat. Then, he turned around and left.
It was almost ten o 'clock when they returned to Qin Garden.
Ji Chifeng was sitting on the sofa, scrolling through Weibo with his phone out of boredom. When he heard a commotion at the door, he looked up and saw Huo Yanqing carrying Shuxin into the house. He instantly felt uneasy. "Is this your so-called urgent matter?"
Ji Chifeng had been changing Huo Yanqing's bandages when Huo Yanqing received a call from Yang Ji saying that he had something urgent to attend to and had to go out.
Then, halfway through changing the bandages, Huo Yanqing put on his clothes and left.
Ji Chifeng thought that it was really an urgent matter at the company, so he couldn't say anything. However, he didn't expect that Huo Yanqing would leave him here for more than two hours to pick up Shuxin!
"Yes," Huo Yanqing answered matter-of-factly. "She's drunk. Do you have sobering tea here?"
Ji Chifeng said angrily, "Even if I do, I won't give it to you."
Huo Yanqing carried Shuxin upstairs. "Make a cup of sobering tea."
Ji Chifeng was so angry that he almost stomped his feet. "I'm not your nanny. I won't do anything like serving tea."
Huo Yanqing didn't stop walking. As he went upstairs, he said, "If you weren't here, I would have gone back to Dongfang Yue. Mother Yun is much more attentive than you."
Ji Chifeng was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his head. "You left me alone for more than two hours and even ordered me to work when you came back. Now, you're complaining that I'm not attentive enough. You're really self-righteous. Do you think I'm very free? There are a lot of things waiting for me at the hospital … "
Ji Chifeng lost interest as he spoke because Huo Yanqing ignored him and had already carried his little sweetheart into the room.
