Hearing this sentence, Mu Qian slowly moved her steps, walked to the side of the wine cabinet, and turned her head slightly to look at him.

Huo Jinxi didn't look at her and poured himself a glass of tequila.

Mu Qian smiled gently, "Didn't you want to hide from Mr. Huo? Are you afraid that you will be unhappy when you see me?"

But since you have seen it all, it doesn't matter.

Mu Qian put down the bottle of red wine in his hand and stared at the bottle of tequila in Huo Jinxi's hand. Seeing him pouring half a cup, Mu Qian reached out and took the cup, "Is this wine delicious?"

She said, and delivered the wine glass to her mouth.

Huo Jinxi raised his hand, pinched the bottom of the cup, and easily grabbed the wine glass back.

"What's wrong with giving me a sip?" Mu Qian looked at him, "Stingy."

Huo Jinxi turned around and walked upstairs.

Mu Qian paused and raised his heel to him.

This was their first meeting since they came back from the island. They parted through that unhappy period and resurfaced through the Ye Jingwei incident, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Mu Qian followed him upstairs and followed him all the way to the entrance of the study. Huo Jinxi stopped and she directly hit him.

Huo Jinxi then looked back at her. Mu Qian rubbed her nose and looked up at him, "It hurts so much..."

"Is there anything wrong?" Huo Jinxi asked without any trouble.

"I want to talk to you." Mu Qian said.

Huo Jinxi opened the door of the study and replied without looking back: "I'm not available."

Mu Qian glanced at the study room, and the computer screen flashed with a bunch of files next to it.

It can be seen that in order to go home for this meal today, he could only postpone all his work.

Mu Qian withdrew her gaze, looked at him for a moment, and suddenly laughed.

Seeing her smile, Huo Jinxi calmed down his eyes.

"Do you think the situation tonight seems a bit familiar?" Mu Qian said.

As soon as she said that, Huo Jinxi understood what she said.

Seven years ago, after Ye Jingwei had an accident, she was so scared that she hid in her room all day and night. It was not until the next day when he returned home that she finally walked out of the room and stood in front of him.

Not for anything else, but just to show his innocence to him and to tell him the love mood that he had not had time to formally tell him.

But he didn't want to hear it, even her admiration was only exchanged for ridicule.

The past that once thought was so far away that it could not be far away suddenly appeared in front of the two of them as if they had reappeared yesterday.

Mu Qian was lost for a moment, but soon came back to her senses, "You didn't want to listen to me that year, but now, you still don't want to listen, right?"

"I've already said the reason." Huo Jinxi, "Besides, I'm really not interested in the words you say."

After hearing this, Mu Qian couldn't help laughing again.

Is this still a blaming her for not being able to speak well?

"If you don't listen, how can you know what I will say?" Mu Qian looked at him, "You are not available now, right? Then I'll wait until you have time, and wait no matter how late."

After saying this, Mu Qian glanced at him again, then turned around and walked towards his room.

Huo Jinxi glanced at her back, turned her head and walked into the study, sat down behind the desk, and faced the documents she had seen before, but had not moved for a long time.

He couldn't help but reach out and pressed his eyebrows, drank the wine in the glass, and focused himself.

Late at night, the cell phone he placed next to him suddenly rang.

Huo Jinxi came back to his senses and answered the phone. Qi Yuan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Huo, I just received the news from Haicheng that Mr. Xu is critically ill!"

Huo Jinxi's eyes suddenly condensed.

Xu Canghai, the head of the Xu family in Haicheng, is his mentor.

When he first took over the Huo family, he was in turmoil. It was Xu Canghai who helped him all the way, which led to the Huo family today.

He respected Xu Canghai very much. He went to visit Haicheng a few days ago. At that time, the old man's health was not very optimistic. He didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

"Mr. Xu's lawyer said, Mr. Xu hopes you can rush over, otherwise something will happen, and the old man will die with his eyes."

Huo Jinxi slowly closed his eyes.

Xu Canghai worked hard for half his life to create a family business, but his children were not in a state of chaos and often made trouble for the sake of family business. Mr. Xu only trusted him very much and had already entrusted him in the morning. He hoped that he could take care of Xu's family in a hundred years.

"Arranging the plane and getting everything ready." Huo Jinxi said, "There may be a few days in Haicheng next."

Just half an hour after hanging up the phone, Huo Jinxi was ready to leave home.

Knowing that the matter was urgent, Qi Yuan was also fast, when Huo Jinxi went downstairs, he was already waiting in front of the building and the car was ready.

He reached out to take Huo Jinxi's luggage, but after he put it in, he saw that Huo Jinxi had not gotten in the car, but looked at a location in the main building.

"Mr. Huo?" Qi Yuan whispered to him.

Huo Jinxi came to his senses and got into the car.

The car slowly drove away from the Huo family mansion, and behind him, the windows of Mu Qian's room were still shining with bright lights.

She said she would wait for him any later.

...

In the early morning of the next day, Xu Canghai passed away suddenly and passed away forever.

As soon as he left, the Xu family was in chaos.

Huo Jinxi stayed in Haicheng for three days and finished the things that Mr. Xu had given in his hands - to manage the old man's funeral, temporarily calmed the conflict between the Xu brother and sister, and select a new group chairman for the Xu family. Every thing was a slap in trouble. Qi Yuan felt exhausted when he followed him, let alone Huo Jinxi.

Qi Yuan couldn't help falling asleep on the plane back, and suddenly woke up when he was about to land. When he saw Huo Jinxi was still sitting safely, as if he was looking at the documents along the way.

"Mr. Huo, you didn't sleep all night yesterday, please rest for a while." Qi Yuan couldn't help but speak in a low voice.

Huo Jinxi turned his head and looked at the gradually clear outline of the city outside the window.

In fact, he has never had the habit of sleeping on the plane, and this time is no exception.

Even though I am extremely tired, the closer I get to Tongcheng, the more I am, the more I am.

After getting off the plane, Huo Jinxi returned to Jiangnan Mansion first.

Lin Shu was cleaning the room. When she saw him, she immediately came forward with heartache, "You're back? Are you exhausted? I'll go and take a shower for you, and have a good rest after taking a shower."

Huo Jinxi went upstairs, but did not see Huo Qiran.

"Where is Qi Ran?"

"I went to the old man's place." Lin Shu said, "The old man is in a bad mood these two days, so he moved back to the sanatorium and asked someone to take Qi Ran there. I guess he wanted to relieve his boredom."

Huo Jinxi suddenly noticed something, and his hands, untied, paused slightly, turned to look at her, "What happened?"
