Huo Jiyun saw such a scene as soon as he walked into the Cherished Home. A girl in a white dress, with long black hair hanging down behind her, smiling at a boy from the side. There was light in the boy's eyes, and his smile was innocent and simple.
The soft beam of light enveloped them, with the big green trees in the background, the verdant lawn on the ground, the gentle expression of the girl in white, and the innocent eyes of a child. At this moment, his heart, which had not been calm for a long time, actually felt inexplicable restlessness, and his indifferent face
There is also a slight arc on the top.
"Master Huo, why are you here? Where is the old man?" Dean Xuan looked at the visitor in surprise.
"My grandfather is inconvenient, so he asked me to donate to you on his behalf."
"That's right. Thank you so much." Xuan Minru's gratitude was reflected on her face.
"It's okay." Huo Jiyun looked very calm.
"How is Mr. Huo's health?"
"Well, it's not a big problem. It's just that my legs and feet are inconvenient due to my age."
While they were still being warm and polite, Xuan Ruoxi had already arrived behind them. Dean Xuan saw her and immediately smiled and waved: "Ruoxi, come quickly, we have a distinguished guest."
Huo Jiyun followed Dean Xuan's line of sight and looked back, just in front of the girl. A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Xuan Ruoxi looked at the person coming, it seemed his name was Huo Jiyun!
"Master Huo, this is Ruoxi, the eldest in the Xifu Courtyard. Thanks to her, I can feel more relaxed." Xuan Minru lovingly hugged Ruoxi's shoulders, her eyes full of relief.
Huo Jiyun's deep eyes looked at Xuan Ruoxi who lowered his head slightly, and for the first time, he took the initiative to reach out--
The assistant behind him almost dropped his jaw!
"Hello, Miss Ruoxi, I'm Huo Jiyun." Xuan Ruoxi hesitated looking at the long fingers on the broad palm.
"Ruoxi, hurry up, don't be rude." Dean Xuan saw that she was still hesitating and urged her hastily.
Xuan Ruoxi seemed to have mustered up the courage to stretch out her hand and gently placed it on his palm. Huo Jiyun only touched it slightly and retracted his hand.
"Then - the task is completed, I will take my leave."
"Are you leaving now? Why don't you go in and sit for a while? Have a cup of tea?"
"No, I have to go back to the company for a meeting. Goodbye."
"Okay, goodbye Mr. Huo." Huo Jiyun nodded, turned and left without saying anything.
Watching him leave, they quickly got into the car. The black car slowly left their sight. Xuan Minru didn't look back until it was out of sight.
She turned to look at Xuan Ruoxi and said happily: "Xixi, great, we have funds again." Xuan Minru took her hand and walked into the house together, while saying excitedly: "This money,
I plan to build a small sports ground for the children. You see, our yard is not big enough and there are more and more children, so we need to expand it."
"That's great. If the dean has any instructions, just tell Ruoxi."
"Okay! My good boy, my Ruoxi, has grown up and is a beautiful girl." Unknowingly, the little girl in front of her has grown into a big girl. Xuan Minru's eyes are inexplicably sour, and her eyes are thick.
Deep reluctance.
At this moment, Ruoxi didn't know the dean's mood, she was still feeling happy because she had received a large donation.
"Master Huo's grandfather is a powerful figure. I heard that the Huo family has been a big family from ancient times to the present. It is also recorded in history. I heard that many of the ancestors were marshals at the beginning of the dynasty.
I vaguely remember that when our orphanage was first launched, a man came to donate money. His surname was also Huo. Later I found out that this man was actually Mr. Huo’s son.
At that time, I was still young, less than forty years old..." Dean Xuan pulled Xuan Ruoxi inside while telling her about the past.
"Minru, when will you come to the hospital?" At night, when the children were asleep, Xuan Minru looked at the stars in the night sky on the balcony. The summer wind was slightly hot, and there was a middle-aged man on the other end of the phone.
Rushing bass.
"What kind of hospital should I live in? I'm not doing well."
"What's good? Do you know that you are in danger now?" The other end of the phone almost roared.
Xuan Minru chuckled calmly: "Old Zhou, why are you still like this? You are already in your fifties. Don't get angry all the time. It is not good for your health. You are still a doctor!"
"Yeah, I'm a doctor and I can't get angry. Then you have to listen to me. It's been so long and you're still delaying. Don't you think about the children? What will they do if they don't have you?"
"What else can I do? Isn't there Ruoxi? She is my successor."
"Oh, Ruoxi, poor Ruoxi, you pushed her to Calvary at such a young age--"
There was suddenly no sound on the other end of the phone, and Xuan Minru also fell silent.
"Minru, I'm sorry!" After a long time, another voice came from the other end, but it was not a roar but an apology.
Xuan Minru laughed a few times and said, "Old Zhou, Old Zhou, you are like this--" His words were full of kindness and friendship.
"We grew up together. You know who I am, Minru. I beg you, please come to the hospital tomorrow - you might as well let me take a look at you."
Listening to his almost pleading tone, Xuan Minru's tears fell silently, dripping silently on her wrist.
"I know, I'll go see you tomorrow. Okay, can you sleep peacefully now? You're still young, so you should pay more attention to your health, don't stay up late, and don't be too stubborn."
"Come on, just teach me a lesson and don't look at your own virtues! Okay, I'm going to rest. You should also rest quickly. I will see you early tomorrow morning."
"As you command, Mr. Zhou."
After hanging up the phone, Xuan Minru let out a long sigh.
Life is a journey, and when the time comes, it’s time to go home.
——
The taxi stopped under a building, "Miss, here we are, this is the Huo Group building." Xuan Ruoxi got out of the taxi, and when she got there, she turned around and looked up at the tall building in front of her.
It's such a high floor, there must be dozens of floors! Take a deep breath, muster up your courage and walk towards the entrance and exit of the building.
Just a few hours ago, the dean gave her a task.
"Ruoxi, do you remember that Mr. Huo who came yesterday?"
Xuan Ruoxi thought for a moment, then a handsome face with sharp angles came to mind, and then nodded.
"I have a letter here and some gifts. Can you help me deliver them to the Huo Group?"
So she readily agreed under the dean's expectant eyes.
The black glass building stands majestically, giving people a majestic feeling.
Xuan Ruoxi strode inside.
"Hello, I'm here to see General Manager Huo. Excuse me, which floor is he on?" When he came to the front desk, Xuan Ruoxi politely asked the lady at the counter, but the other party looked her up and down and said, "You have an appointment."
?"
"Make an appointment?" Do you still want to make an appointment? The dean didn't say anything?
When the lady at the counter saw her confused look, she twitched her lips in contempt, she was another one who was trying to be polite for nothing. Seeing her innocent face, who was she acting for?
"Sorry, we can't go up here without a reservation." Xuan Ruoxi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.
