On a large, cute pink bed, a girl dressed in pink pajamas was lying lazily.

She held a cell phone tightly in her hand, her eyes never leaving the screen.

He kept muttering to himself, "Hehe, I guess I did a good thing! If this woman had stayed in the entertainment industry, who knows how many families would have been destroyed, and people who are not as good as her would have been bullied."

"This is all your own doing. You could have lived a few more years of carefree life, but unfortunately you messed with me, hehehe."

At this moment, Huo Jinning was enthusiastically browsing the trending topics about Zhao Yihan, feeling exceptionally happy.

Suddenly, a crisp knock came at the door. "Who is it?"

Startled, Huo Jinning reluctantly put down her phone, got out of bed, and asked softly.

"Ningning, it's Third Brother." Huo Chengyu's deep and gentle voice came from outside the door.

"Oh, Third Brother, wait a moment, I'll change my clothes first." Hearing that it was her older brother, Huo Jinning's tone instantly became obedient.

"Okay, no rush, take your time packing. I'll wait for you downstairs," Huo Chengyu said softly after receiving a response.

"Okay, I know," Huo Jinning replied.

Not long after, Huo Jinning, who had changed into a blue tracksuit and quickly washed up, hurriedly ran downstairs.

At this moment, Huo Chengyu was dressed in a gray casual outfit and wearing a black baseball cap, sitting leisurely on the sofa eating fruit and waiting for his younger sister.

With light footsteps, Huo Jinning appeared in the living room. "Third Brother, what did you want to see me about?" she asked impatiently as soon as she stood still.

"Actually, it's nothing important, it's just that my childhood friend invited me to go out."

"You seem bored staying at home alone, so I was wondering if you wanted to come with me?" Huo Chengyu explained with a smile.

Huo Chengyu just received a call from his childhood friend Su Yu, inviting him to go horseback riding, fishing, and outdoor barbecue at a villa halfway up the mountain.

Upon hearing this news, Huo Jinning's eyes lit up, and she eagerly asked, "Where are we going? Is there anything good to eat?"

Huo Chengyu replied with a smile, "It's a villa on the hillside belonging to one of my childhood friends! It's spacious and has a beautiful environment."

“We’ve agreed to go horseback riding, fishing, and then have an outdoor barbecue together. How about it, wanna come?” Huo Chengyu explained.

"Would it be convenient for me to go? Would it bother you?" Huo Jinning asked.

"No, I've already arranged with him to take you with me," Huo Chengyu said.

"Okay, I want to go. When are we going?" Huo Jinning could no longer contain her joy.

"I'll go now," Huo Chengyu replied without hesitation.

"OK! Wait a moment, I'm going upstairs to get my bag." Before she finished speaking, Huo Jinning ran upstairs like a cheerful little bird.

Watching her departing figure, Huo Chengyu couldn't help but call out, "Ningning, don't rush, run slowly! Be careful not to fall."

Not long after, Huo Jinning appeared at the stairwell carrying a small, exquisite backpack.

She excitedly said to Huo Chengyu, "Okay, Third Brother, I'm ready, let's go."

So the two of them drove from home, chatting and laughing all the way, in a particularly pleasant mood, and before they knew it, they had arrived at their destination.

The hillside villas boast a beautiful environment with fresh air, shady trees, and abundant flowers and plants.

The spaciousness makes people feel free and comfortable, as if they can stretch out their body and mind to their heart's content.

Here, there is also an exciting racecourse with a wide, flat track and a clean surface.

Several people rode horses across the grassland. The horses were agile and their hooves clattered through the sky, as if they were telling a story of freedom and vitality.

The racecourse is surrounded by green hills and clear waters, offering a pleasant landscape that allows riders to experience the charm of nature while galloping.

"Xiao Yu, you've finally arrived! Didn't you say you were bringing Xin Xin? Where is she? And who is the little girl?" Su Yu dismounted and went to greet Huo Chengyu.

Su Yu asked Huo Jinxin because Huo Chengyu said he was bringing his sister along, which led Su Yu to misunderstand.

"Haha, it's not that Xinxin wanted to come, she has class today and can't come."

"Come on, let me introduce you. This is my younger sister. She went missing when she was little, but we just found her recently," Huo Chengyu said happily to his childhood friend.

Huo Jinning looked at the newcomer and saw a young man dressed in a tight-fitting black riding outfit, with neat short hair, handsome peach blossom eyes, clear gaze, and a high nose bridge—a typical sunny young man.

"Oh, oh, hello Ningning. My name is Su Yu, I'm your third brother's good friend, so I'm practically your brother too." Su Yu greeted Huo Jinning warmly.

Just then, the other two young men also stepped forward.

They are Zhao Ziyi from the Zhao family and Qian Chengyi from the Qian family.

"Hello, Brother Su Yu," Huo Jinning greeted Su Yu very politely.

"Oh my, Xiao Yu, who exactly is this fresh and refined young beauty? Tell us about her!" Qian Chengyi asked with a playful smile.

Xiao Liu's voice suddenly rang in my mind: [Ding, there's some gossip.]

Huo Jinning perked up: 【Let me see…】

Huo Chengyu seemed to notice his sister's little actions, but did not point it out.

Instead, he solemnly introduced Huo Jinning to everyone again: "Let me introduce you all, this is my younger sister, Huo Jinning. She got lost when she was little, but we just found her recently. I brought her out to play today."

"Oh, it's your cousin Ningning! I'm your second cousin. I've been busy with work in Y country for a while, and I just got back not long ago. I haven't had a chance to visit you yet, so please don't worry about it," Zhao Ziyi said with a smile and a warm tone.

"Hello, Second Cousin." Compared to Zhao Ziyi's excessive enthusiasm, Huo Jinning's response was rather cold, without much expression.

"Hey, hello there, Ningning, my little beauty." At this moment, Qian Chengyi suddenly interrupted and greeted Huo Jinning very warmly.

"Um... Hello." Faced with the stranger's sudden greeting, Huo Jinning hesitated slightly, but still nodded politely in response.

"Alright, let's stop chatting outside and come inside to talk things out." Seeing that the atmosphere was getting a little awkward, Su Yu, as the host, quickly spoke up to smooth things over and invited everyone inside to sit down.

"Yes, that's fine." So the group agreed and walked into the house chatting and laughing.
