Chapter 341 Hometown
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but the man turned around at this moment and looked directly into her eyes.
Shen Pianpian quickly retracted his gaze, looking serious as if nothing had happened.
Cheng Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and lowered his eyes silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
It was unknown what lawsuit the two men were involved in, but Ning Haoyu's face turned pale.
He stared at Cheng Zhiyuan with a sinister and strange look in his eyes. Huo Chengde frowned, feeling something was wrong.
"What are you looking at him for?"
Ning Haoyu didn't dare to reply. How could he dare to tell Huo Chengde at this time that Xia Yunduan's body was not with him at all? How could he dare to let the old man know that his beloved granddaughter's body was taken away by someone else? As a husband, he didn't dare to say a word, so he just looked away and laughed hoarsely.
"Nothing. I came here sincerely to ask for your help today, but I didn't expect this result."
He helped Ning Qianqian stand up.
"No matter what, you will always be my grandfather. Whether you still recognize me or not, I am still your granddaughter's husband."
Huo Chengde didn't react much, but the two people in front of him had the same expression.
Shen Pianpian wrinkled her nose and turned her mouth downwards at the same time, feeling disgusted as if she had eaten feces.
Cheng Zhiyuan looked down, with the left corner of his lips slightly raised, an unhappy and cold arc.
Huo Chengde took in the expressions of the two people: "..."
Always feel like something is wrong?
Before Ning Haoyu helped Ning Qianqian leave, Huo Chengde finally said,
"It's too late today. You can stay in the guest room for one night and leave tomorrow."
Ning Haoyu looked down with a pale face, wanting to refuse, but was interrupted by the old man indifferently.
"After all, I don't want you to go to the airport in the middle of the night with a pregnant woman who's about to give birth. If anything goes wrong, you'll say it's the Huo family that won't let you stay."
Then he called Huo Lang and quickly took the two away.
When everything quieted down, the old man looked at Shen Pianpian, and looked her over carefully and inquiringly.
Miss Shen, who had always been fearless, inexplicably felt a bit nervous when she saw this look, just like when she was a child and was punished for making a mistake.
She kept her lips curled up in a smile, but the old man frowned.
"Why are you so nervous? Since you're Yunduan's friend, I won't do anything to you."
Shen Pianpian froze, but the old man had already patted the wheelchair armrest and said,
"Let's go for a walk in the yard."
Shen Pianxian then breathed a sigh of relief, walked behind him with a smile and held the wheelchair.
"Okay!"
She pushed the wheelchair out of the study, and Cheng Zhiyuan followed slowly behind her.
After leaving the study and passing the flower hall, the old man signaled Shen Pianxian to stop and said to Huo Zhenqing who was rushing over,
"Take care of the Cheng family kid. I want to talk to this girl."
Huo Zhenqing naturally nodded repeatedly.
Seeing the girl pushing the old man slowly into the yard, and the way she lowered her head and smiled and talked to the old man from time to time, Huo Zhenqing couldn't help but sigh.
"If Yunduan were still here, he and the old man would still get along in the same way."
Cheng Zhiyuan didn't say anything.
Huo Zhenqing suddenly remembered something, glanced at him suspiciously and asked,
"Speaking of which, the Ning Group is short of so much funds. Was this something you did?"
Cheng Zhiyuan still looked at the girl's gradually disappearing back, and slightly raised his lower lip.
"I was the cause, but not the result."
"What's the meaning?"
Huo Zhenqing was confused, but Cheng Zhiyuan stopped answering.
The man turned around and sat down elegantly on the wooden chair in the flower hall, and began to drink tea leisurely. The faint sunlight fell through the flower stands above his head. His profile looked as handsome and distant as a god in this sunlight.
·
Shen Pianpian pushed the old man to the yard behind the manor.
It was evening now, the sky was dimly lit, and a gentle breeze carrying the damp smell of the sea flowed down from the hillside where Mother Xia Yun was buried.
In this gust of wind, Shen Pianpian slowly stopped.
