Chapter 974 (Page 1/2)

Time flies, Huo Qingci's sick leave is about to end. He bought a ticket back to Hai City in advance, ready to end this short vacation.

Before Huo Qingci returned to Hai City, Huo Li called his son Huo Junshan's workplace and asked him to come to the city to discuss the specific arrangements for this year's New Year.

Huo Junshan readily agreed to the call and went to the city with his wife and children. At the same time, Huo Qingyan also came to the city with his eldest son.

Because the store business was booming, Lin Man and Huo Qingci were too busy with work to go home to entertain them, so they decided to invite all the family members to dine together at the hot pot restaurant.

Song Jingjing caused her mother-in-law to break her leg. Lin Man thought she would not show up, but unexpectedly, when it was time for dinner, Song Jingjing actually came with Huo Yingzi and Huo Yifei.

Seeing this, Lin Man couldn't help but glance at her mother-in-law who was still wrapped in plaster, and then turned her gaze to Song Jingjing.

She noticed that Song Jingjing was talking and laughing with her mother-in-law, who nodded from time to time, and their relationship seemed quite close, while her father-in-law looked at them with a gloomy expression, and her grandfather also frowned.

Lin Man looked at them and couldn't help but shook her head helplessly, secretly sighing in her heart, my mother-in-law has really forgotten the pain after the scar has healed!

Her gaze fell on Song Jingjing's face again, and she saw that the scar was still very hideous. Although she had applied a thick layer of powder, it was obviously not covered.

What surprised her even more was that Song Jingjing dared to wear such bright lipstick today.

Lin Man thought, maybe it was because Song Jingjing was making money now, she became more confident. Even though the scar on her face was so conspicuous, she was no longer as inferior as before.

Lin Man naturally didn't know that the reason why Song Jingjing was no longer so self-deprecating was that she heard that as long as she had money, she could have plastic surgery to make her face as beautiful as a fairy.

So, all she is thinking about now is how to make more money so that she can use the money to turn herself into a real beauty in the future.

By that time, she would not only be rich, but also have stunning looks. I'm sure the Huo family's relatives would flock to her like flies to honey, flattering and fawning over her.

Huo Li coughed lightly, then slowly said: "I called you here today to discuss the arrangements for the New Year.

Qingci will be back in Hai City in two days. Xiaoman has to look after the store, so she won't be going to Hai City this winter vacation. She will stay in Jing City for the New Year, and I will stay in Jing City for the New Year too."

Huo Junshan said, "Dad is in Beijing for the New Year, so Xiaoya and I will come back early on the 28th to celebrate the New Year."

Huo Li nodded and looked at Huo Qingyan, "Where's Qingyan?"

The reason why Huo Li asked Huo Qingyan was because he heard what his eldest grandson said. He suspected that Song Jingjing would take his grandson back to her parents' home for the New Year.

Huo Qingyan smiled and said, "Grandpa, we will also accompany you to celebrate the New Year."

Song Jingjing gently tugged at Che Huo Qingyan's sleeve, then turned her head, looked at her grandfather with a smile, and said softly, "Grandpa, Qingyan and I should come over to wish you a happy new year on the first day of the new year! We can spend New Year's Eve at home."

Huo Qingyan looked puzzled after hearing what Song Jingjing said. He looked at Song Jingjing and asked in confusion:

"Jingjing, why don't we celebrate New Year's Eve with Grandpa and the others? It would be so nice for the whole family to get together and have a lively time."

Song Jingjing quickly explained, "As everyone knows, my mother-in-law has difficulty walking, and my sister-in-law is so busy. I am just being considerate of her and my sister-in-law!"

If our family goes there, we will have to set up another table, and it will definitely be more difficult for my sister-in-law to cook."

At this moment, Huo Qinghuan, who was standing aside, suddenly rolled her eyes. She said unhappily, "I know that eldest sister-in-law is working hard, but I haven't seen you, second sister-in-law, help with cooking in all those years."

Song Jingjing's smile suddenly became awkward. She gave a dry laugh and explained, "Didn't Qingyan say that my cooking skills weren't as good as my sister-in-law's? If I were a good cook, I would definitely take the initiative to help."

Huo Qinghuan snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Second sister-in-law's cooking skills are not good, but she can help..."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was getting tense, Xiao Ya quickly interrupted, "Alright, Qing Huan, we're discussing the New Year's celebration right now, so please don't mess with us."
