Chapter 433: All in One
However, she felt that this aunt was very gentle, and when she looked at her, there was no disgust in her eyes that her mother had when she looked at her.
She couldn't help but think, if only her aunt could be her mother...
Xiao Muzhen asked Huo Yunting to bring the dishes to the table, while she served a few bowls of rice and brought them out of the kitchen.
Old Mrs. Huo is sober now. After tasting the dishes made by Xiao Muzhen, she immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes.
"Zhenbao, your cooking is really delicious, but don't cook too much on a regular basis. Just cook for this brat occasionally, otherwise he'll get too picky and might ask you to cook every day."
Hearing this, Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but smile, "Yeah, I know, I don't usually have time."
"Well, don't work too hard. You can spend whatever Yun Ting earns. If it's not enough, let him work hard to earn more."
Seeing Mrs. Huo's serious expression, Xiao Muzhen felt a familiar feeling in his heart, as if the two of them had gotten along in the same way before.
"Okay, grandma, I understand."
Looking at Xiao Muzhen with a smile on her face, Old Mrs. Huo also smiled, her eyes full of relief.
Xiao Muzhen lowered her head to eat, and out of the corner of her eye she noticed Huo Zimeng's eyes were fixed on the cola chicken wings farthest from her, and she picked one up and put it in her bowl.
"Eat it."
Huo Zimeng's eyes suddenly widened, and after a long while she whispered, "Thank you, Auntie."
Xiao Muzhen smiled and said, "You're welcome. Just tell me or your uncle what you want to eat."
Meeting Xiao Muzhen's gentle gaze, Huo Zimeng's little face turned red and she quickly lowered her head to eat chicken wings, but in her heart she couldn't help wanting Xiao Muzhen to be her mother.
After dinner, Huo Yunting and Xiao Muzhen cleaned up the dishes and put them into the dishwasher. When they walked out of the kitchen, they saw that Mrs. Huo looked a little unwell, so they immediately walked over to her.
"Grandma, are you sleepy? I'll take you to rest."
"good."
After taking Mrs. Huo to the guest room on the first floor, and after she fell asleep, Huo Yunting walked out lightly and called Ke Ning directly.
"Go find two nannies. They should be honest. The old lady will be staying in the capital for a while."
After giving instructions to Ke Ning, Huo Yunting returned to the living room and saw Xiao Muzhen telling a fairy tale to Huo Zimeng with a gentle expression, without any impatience in his eyes.
He stood by and watched for a while, and his originally cold eyes became soft.
When they have children in the future, she will definitely tell them stories with such patience. Thinking of that scene, Huo Yunting's mouth curled up slightly.
Just thinking about that scene makes me happy.
As he listened, Huo Zimeng began to feel sleepy.
She grabbed Xiao Muzhen's sleeve, and her eyelids gradually drooped.
Xiao Muzhen smiled, brought her a pillow, let her lean on it, and whispered: "Mengmeng, if you are sleepy, go to sleep."
"good."
Huo Zimeng gradually fell asleep.
Xiao Muzhen's voice as he told the story became lower and lower, and slowly stopped.
She was about to get up and find a small blanket to cover her when Huo Zimeng suddenly turned over, revealing an arm as white as a lotus root node, but there were purple marks on that arm, which were obviously man-made.
Her expression changed and a cold look flashed in her eyes.
As soon as she stood up, she saw Huo Yunting standing not far from the sofa, looking at her gently.
She pursed her lips, went to the guest room to get a small blanket to cover Huo Zimeng, and whispered, "I have something to tell you, let's go to the study."
The two walked into the study, and as soon as the door closed, Huo Yunting grabbed her waist.
The moment his lips pressed down, Xiao Muzhen suddenly stretched out his hand to block them and whispered, "I have something serious to tell you."
Huo Yunting felt a little aggrieved, "I'm also doing something serious."
"Wait, let me go first."
"I refuse, that's all you need to say."
Xiao Muzhen: "..."
After a moment of silence, her voice turned serious. "Just now, after Mengmeng fell asleep, I saw a lot of bruises on her arms. They must have been caused by someone. I suspect... Chi Xuan or Huo Tianyi often uses her to vent their anger."
However, judging from the depth of the marks on the arm, that person is most likely Chi Xuan.
Thinking of her venting her frustrations on a three-year-old child, Xiao Muzhen felt a surge of disgust.
Huo Yunting's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly, and he said coldly: "I'll find a doctor right away!"
On the other side, Chi Xuan finally discovered that Huo Zimeng was missing and immediately asked the servants of the villa to look for her.
Huo Tianyi was originally handling work at the company, but he soon learned about this and rushed back immediately.
Seeing Chi Xuan's anxious face, his expression turned icy cold. "How could Meng Meng be lost?!"
Chi Xuan didn't dare look him in the eye and lowered her head, "I... I don't know... I felt a little dizzy just now, so I rested in the bedroom for a while. I didn't expect that when I came out, Mengmeng was gone..."
Huo Tianyi sneered, pinched her chin and forced her to look up at him.
"You'd better find Mengmeng as soon as possible, otherwise I won't let you go easily!"
Chi Xuan's body trembled, her eyes full of grievance, "There are so many servants at home, how could I have known that she would suddenly disappear..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Tianyi slapped her in the face.
"You are Mengmeng's mother. Those servants are there to help you take care of the child. Now that you've lost the child, you're still making excuses. Go find someone!"
Chi Xuan felt a burning pain on her face, but she didn't dare to say anything. She quickly turned around and started looking for Huo Zimeng in the villa.
She was filled with anger, secretly thinking that when she found Huo Zimeng, she would definitely give her a good beating when Huo Tianyi was not at home!
After searching for more than half an hour, Huo Zimeng was still not found. At this time, the servant who went to investigate the surveillance hurriedly ran to Huo Tianyi.
"Mr. Huo, I saw from the surveillance that the young lady secretly climbed into Huo Yunting's car."
Upon hearing this, Huo Tianyi's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly, and he said in a cold voice: "Go and ask the driver to drive the car over!"
He didn't think Huo Yunting would treat his child well, and Huo Yunting actually told him about Mengmeng in his car. He must want to use Mengmeng for something.
Chi Xuan happened to come over and when she heard that Huo Zimeng was with Huo Yunting, her face suddenly turned pale and she froze in place.
Huo Tianyi stood up and was about to leave when he saw Chi Xuan standing beside him. He said coldly, "Follow me!"
Chi Xuan didn't want to go, but she knew that if she didn't go, Huo Tianyi would not let her go, so she had to grit her teeth and follow.
After getting in the car, Huo Tianyi called Huo Yunting directly.
"Huo Yunting, is Mengmeng with you?!"
"It just so happens that I have something to talk to you about. Come over now."
After saying that, Huo Yunting hung up the phone.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Huo Tianyi's face was full of anger, and he slapped Chi Xuan again with his backhand.
"Idiot, if it weren't for you, Mengmeng wouldn't have been taken away by Huo Yunting!"
