Since Chi Jiao had already said so much, Chi Mingwei naturally believed her.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. He tried his best to control the complicated emotions in his heart and looked deeply at her. "Jiaojiao, you have to remember that you shouldn't show off your wealth. You have to keep a low profile and try not to get into trouble."
His precious daughter was actually so rich.
Since she could buy the Huo family, her assets must be several times that of the Chi family.
Chi Mingwei couldn't take it anymore when he thought of how innocent his precious daughter was.
What if someone with ulterior motives found out about this and did something bad to Jiaojiao?
Chi Mingwei felt terrible when he thought of the kidnapping case that Chi Jiao had encountered.
That was why he warned Jiaojiao righteously.
Chi Jiao could tell what her father was worried about and nodded cooperatively. "I know, Dad. This is our little secret. I won't tell anyone."
With that, she gave Chi Mingwei her pinky.
Chi Mingwei looked at her childish actions and hooked his pinky with hers. He couldn't help but smile. "Then, it's settled. Don't let anyone know, including Quan Jue."
When Chi Mingwei specially mentioned Quan Jue, the corners of Chi Jiao's lips twitched silently.
She didn't dare to imagine what her father's expression would be if he knew that she had brought Quan Jue to visit 007 Laboratory but didn't tell him about it.

The Huo family.
When Huo Wanwan returned home, the more she thought about what had happened at the Qin family today, the angrier she became. Then, she went straight to her grandfather's room.
The moment she pushed open the door and entered, she saw her uncle, Huo Chen, who had not been home for a long time.
Huo Chen was chatting with Old Master Huo when he saw Huo Wanwan barging in without knocking. His handsome face darkened slightly.
He was born with a rather cold and abstinent appearance, and when his expression darkened, he looked threatening and intimidating.
Huo Wanwan's heart skipped a beat when she saw the displeased expression on his face.
"Uncle, when did you come back?" Huo Wanwan smiled guiltily.
"I just came back today," Huo Chen said coldly.
"Wanwan, why did you barge in so hastily? What's the matter?" Grandfather Huo pushed up his reading glasses and asked Huo Wanwan.
Huo Wanwan walked to Old Master Huo's side and sat down. She hugged Old Master Huo's arm and said in an aggrieved tone, "Grandpa, you have to stand up for me. Qin Qingrong bullied me!"
Hearing Huo Wanwan call Qin Qingrong by his name, Huo Chen frowned slightly. He looked at Huo Wanwan with even more displeasure and said sternly, "Wanwan, how can you call an elder by his name?"
Old Master Huo was already used to Huo Wanwan's straightforwardness. He was worried that Huo Chen's sternness would scare Huo Wanwan, so he immediately raised his head and glared at Huo Chen. "Our Wanwan has received a Western education. The West doesn't pay attention to these things."
Huo Chen knew that Old Master Huo was being protective of his children again, but he didn't intend to compromise at all. He continued to stare at Huo Wanwan with a cold and stern gaze. "Even if you've received a Western education, since you're Chinese now, you have to abide by the etiquette of our country. From now on, I can't hear you call your elders by their names. "
