"Mother Yun." Huo Yanqing interrupted Mother Yun helplessly. "You'll scare her like this."
"Huh?" Mother Yun was stunned. "You'll scare her? Then … then I won't ask anymore." She then looked at Shuxin lovingly. "Miss Shu, don't be afraid. I don't mean any harm. I'm just asking casually."
Shuxin smiled and shook her head. "It's fine."
"That's good. You must be hungry. I made some millet porridge for you. Here, eat it while it's hot." Mother Yun was about to feed Shuxin.
Shuxin hurriedly reached out to take the bowl. "I can do it myself."
Mother Yun smiled as if she was looking at her daughter-in-law. "Be careful. It's hot. Don't rush. Eat slowly." She then patted Huo Yanqing's shoulder. "Come out for a while." She then walked out of the room.
Huo Yanqing got up and walked two steps. He seemed to have thought of something and turned back. "Your phone rang a few times. I thought it was your family, so I picked it up."
"Thank you, Fifth Uncle. Sorry for the trouble."
Huo Yanqing walked out of the room. Mother Yun pulled him aside and whispered, "Yanqing, you won't be able to get a girl like this. You have to be passionate and take the initiative."
Huo Yanqing pinched his brows and said helplessly, "Mother Yun, Miss Shu and I don't have that kind of relationship."
Mother Yun didn't believe him. "You've always been punctual. Today was the first time you left work early. Also, you never let any woman get close to you. Today, you took the initiative to carry Miss Shu into the house. I saw it with my own eyes. Don't try to lie to me."
Huo Yanqing furrowed his brows. He was silent for a few seconds before speaking. "I'm not lying to you. I was discussing a collaboration with her when she suddenly fainted from a high fever. Moreover, she's Xiao Bai's classmate. I couldn't just ignore her."
"Miss Shu is Young Master Xiao Bai's classmate?" Mother Yun was shocked and disappointed. She thought that Huo Yanqing had finally learned his lesson. She didn't expect that … she was happy for nothing.
"Yes." Huo Yanqing softened his voice and comforted Mother Yun, "Don't worry about me. I'll bring her home when the time comes."
When Mother Yun heard that there was a chance, her mood instantly rose. "You already have someone in mind?"
When Huo Yanqing heard the word 'beloved', he was slightly startled. Then, he gently curled the corner of his lips but did not answer.
"Who is she? Which family is she from? Was she beautiful? How old is he? She … "
"Mother Yun …" Huo Yanqing had a headache. His voice was filled with helplessness.
"Okay, okay, okay. I won't ask anymore. I'll wait for you to bring the girl back." Mother Yun didn't dare to push her too much. She was afraid that the hope that she had obtained with much difficulty would be dashed again.
"Yes." Huo Yanqing was silent for two seconds. "Don't tell my mom first. She's too enthusiastic. I'm worried that she'll be scared away."
Mother Yun was just thinking about going downstairs to call Old Madam to tell her the good news. When she heard Huo Yanqing's words, her excitement instantly died down. "… Okay, I'll listen to you."
Huo Yanqing's furrowed brows gradually relaxed. "I still have some work to discuss with Miss Shu. I'll go in first."
Mother Yun pulled Huo Yanqing back. "I don't care who your beloved is. But Mother Yun wants to tell you that you can't be too bored when chasing a girl. You have to …"
"Be enthusiastic and take the initiative."
"Yes, and …"
"Mother Yun …"
