Chapter 152: Blind Man and Blind Horse
A hint of coldness flashed across Huo Yunting's eyes, and then he slowly said, "Very good."
"I also know that Tianyi's current status in the Huo family is very awkward, but you two are brothers, so I still hope you can help him more. After all, he..."
At this point, a trace of sadness flashed in Mrs. Huo's eyes. She sighed and said nothing more.
Huo Yunting looked indifferent, but still nodded and said, "If he doesn't do anything out of line, I won't treat him unfairly."
After all, the position of the president of Huo Group should have belonged to Huo Tianyi.
But after his uncle and his family had a car accident that year, Huo Tianyi went abroad directly.
After Huo Yunting took over the Huo Group, he put in a lot of effort to bring the Huo Group to its current position. It is obviously impossible for him to hand it over to others.
"Well, after a while, when Tianyi is sure to stay in Rongcheng, I will give him some money and let him start his own business. If you can help him then, please do so."
"Okay, I understand."
The two of them stopped talking and did not continue the topic.
Huo Yunting still had a few documents to look at, so after spending some time with Old Mrs. Huo, he went to the study to work.
When only Mrs. Huo and Chi Muzhen were left in the living room, she took Chi Muzhen's hand and said softly, "Zhenbao, thank you for giving Yun Ting a chance."
She really couldn't bear to part with Chi Muzhen, and she also thought she was a very good person.
Sometimes, Old Mrs. Huo was extremely envious of Old Master and Old Mrs. Chi. If she had such a good granddaughter, she would treasure her like the apple of her eye.
It’s just that the Chi family has poor eyesight and always feels that Chi Xuan is better than Chi Muzhen in every way.
"Grandma, even if I give him a chance, I can't guarantee that we can always be together."
Mrs. Huo nodded and said, "I know that if you give up on him again, it must be because he did something to hurt you. I will never plead for him."
A warm feeling passed through Chi Muzhen's heart, "Grandma, thank you!"
"Why are you thanking me? I've treated you like my own granddaughter these past few years! By the way, do you have any girls around your age?"
"What's wrong?"
Old Madam Huo sighed and lowered her voice a few notches. "Tianyi is three years older than Yunting, but he still doesn't have a girlfriend...and your ex-mother-in-law can't possibly find him one. This has always been a concern of mine."
Huo Tianyi's parents are both dead, and when she dies, he will be really alone, so Mrs. Huo hopes that he can get married as soon as possible.
Chi Muzhen thought for a while, shook her head and said, "Grandma, I don't have any girls of this age around me, but you can hold a party and invite all the unmarried socialites in Rongcheng to attend. Maybe my cousin can meet the girl he likes."
"But in what name?"
Chi Muzhen smiled and said, "My cousin has been away from Rongcheng for so many years, how about holding a welcoming banquet for him?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Huo's eyes lit up and she nodded, "Zhenzhen, you're really smart! Let's do it!"
After reading the documents, Huo Yunting returned to the living room and saw Chi Muzhen and Old Mrs. Huo huddled together, whispering about something.
"Grandma, Zhenzhen, what are you doing?"
Mrs. Huo looked up at him and said, "It has nothing to do with you. Just take care of yourself."
The two discussed it for a while, and Mrs. Huo finally made the final decision, "Okay, this weekend!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the servant came over.
"Ma'am, the meal is ready."
"Huayuan asked Tianyi to come back for dinner."
Soon, the four of them sat together to eat.
Old Mrs. Huo sat in the main seat, Huo Tianyi and Huo Yunting sat on either side of her, and Chi Muzhen sat next to Huo Yunting.
Huo Tianyi ate the whole meal in silence. Except for occasionally replying to Mrs. Huo's words, he kept his head down and ate silently the rest of the time.
Noticing that Chi Muzhen was looking at Huo Tianyi frequently, Huo Yunting's face darkened visibly.
After finishing the meal, without even taking a sip of tea, Huo Yunting pulled Chi Muzhen away.
On the way back, Huo Yunting had a cold face all the time, and every time Chi Muzhen spoke to him, he answered briefly and concisely.
It was obvious that he was angry, and Chi Muzhen felt a little puzzled.
"Mr. Huo, what's wrong with you tonight? Did I make you angry?"
Huo Yunting had an indifferent expression and his voice sounded a little sarcastic.
"Why were you staring at Huo Tianyi while eating?! I didn't know that he was your boyfriend!"
Chi Muzhen couldn't help but smile. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Huo Yunting and asked, "Is this what you're angry about?"
"Isn't that enough?"
"That's enough, but I think he's doing it because grandma wanted me to introduce him to a girlfriend today, but there's no one suitable around me, so I suggested to grandma that she hold a welcoming banquet for my cousin and invite famous ladies from Rongcheng to attend."
Huo Yunting sneered, "This isn't a welcoming banquet, I think it's a concubine selection ceremony."
Chi Muzhen: "..."
After a few seconds of silence, she looked at Huo Yunting and said, "I noticed that you seem to be hostile to Huo Tianyi. Do you have a grudge against him?"
"No, we simply don't get along."
Seeing Huo Yunting's bad expression, Chi Muzhen didn't ask any further questions.
When the two returned to the Imperial Court, they happened to meet Cheng Shumin who came to look for Huo Yunting.
Seeing Chi Muzhen, Cheng Shumin's eyes darkened. Huo Yunting actually got back together with her?!
Knowing that Cheng Shumin didn't like him very much, Chi Muzhen said hello lightly, turned to look at Huo Yunting and said, "I'll go back to my room first."
Cheng Shumin suddenly stopped her with a smile on her face, "No need, I just came to give Yun Ting some dumplings I made. You can put them in the refrigerator later. If you don't want Auntie to cook, you can make some dumplings to eat."
Seeing the dumplings handed over by Cheng Shumin, Chi Muzhen was a little surprised and didn't understand why her attitude towards her seemed like a different person.
Seeing that Chi Muzhen didn't answer, Cheng Shumin smiled and said, "Muzhen, I did have some opinions about you before, but I have thought it through recently. Relationships are a matter between the two of you, and I shouldn't interfere."
Not knowing what she was up to, Chi Muzhen took the dumplings she handed over.
"Thank you Ms. Cheng for your understanding."
Cheng Shumin didn't say anything else. She said a few words to Huo Yunting and left.
After putting the dumplings in the refrigerator, Chi Muzhen was about to go back to the bedroom to take a shower, but as soon as he turned around, Huo Yunting pushed him between him and the refrigerator.
"Mr. Huo, you..."
Before she could finish her words, she was kissed by Huo Yunting.
Chi Muzhen unconsciously grabbed his shirt and was forced to respond to his kiss.
Huo Yunting didn't let her go until she was about to suffocate.
"Move into my bedroom tonight."
"No, I told you that the condition for me to live here is to sleep in separate rooms. You can't cheat."
He looked down at Chi Muzhen. Her eyes were full of determination, without the slightest hesitation.
"All right."
Chi Muzhen pushed him away and said with a smile: "Mr. Huo, it's time for us to wash up and go to bed."
Huo Yunting held her waist and lowered his head for another long kiss.
"This is my compensation for staying alone in an empty house."
Chi Muzhen was about to speak when Huo Yunting's phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was Ke Ning, Huo Yunting let go of her and said, "I'll go pick it up."
"good."
Huo Yunting walked into the living room and answered the phone. He didn't know what was said on the other end, but he quickly hung up and went into the kitchen.
"There's a problem at the company. I need to go over there now and may be back very late. You should go to bed early."
Seeing his gloomy face, Chi Muzhen nodded and said, "Okay, go quickly, work is important."
An indescribable emotion flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes. He held Chi Muzhen and kissed her for a while before turning and leaving.
Just as I reached the door, Chi Muzhen's voice suddenly sounded from behind me.
"Wait a moment!"
Huo Yunting's body suddenly stiffened, and the hands hanging by his sides unconsciously tightened.
