Chapter 38 Make him a midnight snack
The Porsche's body is smooth and it flies out like a sharp arrow.
Mr. Li was sweating profusely. "Assistant Mu, I didn't say anything wrong just now, did I?"
Mu Yi folded his hands, his face gloomy. "Don't worry, if Mr. Huo asks this question again in the future, you should stick to your answer. He always handles things impartially and will not show favoritism."
"I understand that," Mr. Li said, feeling uneasy. "But Jian Mo and Mr. Huo seem a little..."
"No!" Mu Yi interrupted abruptly, "Mr. Huo is not talking about the person, but the matter. Don't make blind assumptions."
She could find out the truth or pretend nothing happened, but others couldn't. She wouldn't allow anyone other than her in the Huo family to know about the relationship between Huo Qichen and Jian Mo!
"All right……"
Tomorrow is the weekend. Jian Mo didn't rush to go to bed early, but instead made midnight snacks with Ju Ma to pass the time.
Ju Ma nodded repeatedly, "Madam, you cook a lot, and your cooking skills are really good."
Hearing this, Jian Mo nodded proudly, "My family is not well off, and we often have no food to eat. If we don't have food, we have to go hungry. I have no choice but to do it myself. I will get the hang of it after a while."
In the Jian family, Jian's mother is lazy and likes to eat, but Jian's father can cook. However, Jian Mo feels sorry for him having to juggle work and housework, so she takes care of all the housework.
Jian Mo poured the prepared drink into the cup and looked outside, but there was still no movement.
"Auntie Ju, does Mr. Huo often not come home so late?" She had lived here for so long and had never seen Huo Qichen come home early.
"Yes, my husband is busy with work, and sometimes he comes home in the early morning. Before you came, he was out drinking too much and usually went to a hotel to sleep, and didn't go back to Mingyuan."
This sounds strange, but after Jian Mo gets off work, her mind also gets off work, and she doesn't like to think too much.
It turns out Huo Qichen works so hard, no wonder he can become a capitalist.
"Madam." Ju Ma nudged Jian Mo with her arm and winked at her ambiguously, "You made so many delicious dishes tonight, waiting for Mr. Huo to come home, right?"
"You could say that..."
She was thankful that it was Huo Qichen, and she still had a chance to apologize. If it were any other man, upon hearing someone slander him for having a hidden illness, he would definitely fire her!
Recalling Huo Qichen's eyes at that time...
Just then, the sound of a car engine came from the garden outside, getting closer and closer.
Ju Ma took the desserts and drinks off the table and said, "Sir, you're back. This is the midnight snack that Madam prepared for you."
Huo Qichen's eyes, as cold as the stars, flashed with surprise. The table was filled with exquisite food, and the sweet aroma filled the air.
When I looked up again, I saw Jian Mo hurriedly taking off her apron and jogging out.
"You...you're back."
Ju Ma and the servants left at the right time, leaving only two people in the quiet space.
"You did it?" Huo Qichen asked suspiciously.
"Yes, but Ju Ma and the others helped me. Um, do you want to try it? I made strawberry cake, mango mille-feuille, and chocolate daifuku. They must be better than those sold outside!"
"I don't eat sweets."
“…”
I was so embarrassed.
"...I don't know. I said before that I wanted to thank you and cook you a meal, but you didn't come back tonight, so I can only make you a midnight snack." She lowered her head, wishing she could bury her face in his chest.
"Jian Mo," Huo Qichen said in a deep voice. For the first time, he wondered why this woman was so short. "Are you trying to please me?"
Jian Mo looked up blankly and quickly waved her hand, "No, I just wanted to apologize to you. Today, when I was leaving get off work, I said some... slanderous words about you. I hope you don't take it to heart. I was just talking nonsense! I will definitely change next time!"
There is no ambiguity, only a face full of desire to survive!
