Chapter 54 Piglet



Lin Ruanruan, who had been paying close attention to online public opinion these past few days, slept until late morning, since it was Saturday.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Lin Ruanruan quickly checked her phone. Isn't that how it's written in novels?

The villains will cause trouble for the protagonist when she is most relaxed. She needs to check if there is any other news online. She feels that Xu Yelu must have a backup plan.

She casually hung up the WeChat voice call she was on with Huo Qizheng.

Um?

Lin Ruanruan blinked. What had she just hung up on?

She quickly opened her chat with Huo Qi and her mouth dropped open. She had actually been on a voice call with Brother Huo for almost 10 hours!

"Am I seeing things?" Lin Ruanruan rubbed her eyes and looked at it carefully. It really was 10 hours.

Lin Ruanruan was still a little dazed, clutching her hot phone. She sat on the bed, propping her head up as she reviewed the events.

Yes, when she got back to her room yesterday, she saw that Brother Huo had sent her a message, so she replied.

Then Brother Huo called her with a voice message, and she answered.

Later, she thought Brother Huo's voice was really nice, so she lay in bed and listened to it intently.

She couldn't hear what was said after that, only remembering Brother Huo's gentle voice and what seemed like two soft laughs.

She was exhausted. At the end of the day, first, her homeroom teacher misunderstood her as having a puppy love; then there was the trending topic; then she became deskmates with the cold and domineering CEO Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng; then she got into a group fight in the cafeteria; and finally she cried terribly. She finally made it to the hospital for a check-up, but she was already too weak to go on.

She seemed to have fallen asleep listening to Brother Huo's voice.

And then, that was it. Then came what she saw today: she talked to Brother Huo for 10 hours straight.

"Hiss..." Lin Ruanruan was a little frantic. Huo Gege hadn't hung up for so long. Could it be that he had fallen asleep like her?

Yes, that must be it. Maybe he hasn't gotten up yet.

Before Lin Ruanruan could finish her assessment, Huo Qi sent a message.

'Our little piggy bunny has finally woken up! She slept for 10 hours!'

Lin Ruanruan's pupils trembled as she looked at the newly released news.

Why didn't Brother Huo hang up the phone in the middle of the night when he knew he was asleep?

Why did she know as soon as she hung up on Brother Huo?

Was Brother Huo keeping the chat interface open the whole time?

Does she snore at night?

Before Lin Ruanruan could figure it out, Huo Qi sent a second message.

"You must have been exhausted yesterday. You fell asleep after only a short phone call, and you were even snoring softly."

Lin Ruanruan collapsed onto the bed, kicking the pink blankets with her feet.

Destroy it! She's actually snoring. She's going to dig herself a super-sized villa with her toes today!

The phone rang again, and Lin Ruanruan quickly opened it, only to find that it was another message from Huo Qi.

"I ordered some small cakes and some special medicine for you; they should arrive soon."

Lin Ruanruan looked at it carefully and suddenly felt a sweet warmth in her heart, and her frantic state subsided.

She thought about it for a moment and then replied to Huo Qi's message. She was really curious why Huo Qi didn't hang up the phone even though he knew she was asleep.

Why didn't Brother Huo hang up on me last night?

Huo Qi was sitting in his office looking at the newly developed program when he saw the message Ruan Ruan sent him, and his eyes crinkled into a smile.

Actually, he originally wanted to hang up the phone after realizing that Ruan Ruan had fallen asleep, but for some reason he was reluctant to do so.

He fell asleep to the sound of soft, shallow breathing and slept soundly all night. It was the first good night's sleep he had had in a long time.

I only realized I hadn't hung up the phone when I woke up this morning. I was going to hang up, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

I just took the power bank to charge my phone while I tidied myself up. I could hear Ruan Ruan snoring a few times; she sounded like she was sleeping soundly.

Huo Qi was itching to see her and wanted to teleport right next to Lin Ruanruan to watch her sleep.

I wonder if Ruanruan's sleeping posture is as obedient and gentle as her personality.

Huo Qi touched his nose and replied to Lin Ruanruan anyway.

'Because I accidentally fell asleep, and then I was curious how long you could sleep, so I didn't hang up.'

Lin Ruanruan widened her eyes, pouted, and huffed. This was a bit too much, so she decided to ignore Huo Qi.

Send the other person an angry emoji directly.

Just then, Ms. Li Shuzhen knocked on Lin Ruanruan's door. "Ruanruan, your brother Huo ordered a small cake for you. Would you like to come down and eat it?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Ruanruan replied enthusiastically. Anyone who doesn't respond enthusiastically to a meal must have a problem.

Brother Huo ordered her a handmade cake from a recently trending online cake shop, and she absolutely had to try it.

Huo Qi couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the emoji Lin Ruanruan sent him.

The little rabbit is getting bolder and bolder; just a few months ago, she wouldn't even dare to look at him. Huo Qi smiled and saved the emoji Lin Ruanruan sent him. This is good.

At that moment, the secretary knocked on the door for Huo Qi.

"Enter."

The secretary said to Huo Qi, "Fang Si, the president of Fang's Group, contacted you and said he wants to discuss a cooperation with you."

Huo Qi raised an eyebrow. The Fang family had actually come to him now. "Okay, I'll contact him directly."

Huo Qi immediately called Fang Si back, and the two agreed to meet to discuss the matter in detail.

After hanging up the phone, Huo Qi remained silent for a long time. The Fang family's businesses were mostly overseas and involved in the financial industry, which had nothing to do with his current business.

If he were truly discussing business, he should have been talking to the Huo family, unless the other party's business dealings were a pretense and their real purpose was to gather information.

Huo Qi directly called his father via WeChat, informing him that Fang Si had asked him to discuss business, and also sharing his speculations with his father.
