Early the next morning.
When Su Yaoyao got up, Yu Chiyan had already left early.
When she came downstairs, Madam Yu was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.
Thinking about what happened last night still made her feel somewhat embarrassed.
"Grandma... Grandma."
Madam Yu put down the newspaper in her hand. After all, she was old and had seen a lot, so her skin wasn't as thin as a young girl's.
"You're up? Did you sleep well last night?"
Su Yaoyao's face immediately turned red when the topic of last night was mentioned.
She answered somewhat hesitantly, "Um... it's... it's fine."
Madam Yu's original intention was simply to ask a question. The two of them must have drunk quite a bit last night. She was just worried that the girl might have a headache or something. She didn't expect it to have so many implications.
As the old lady Yu watched her face grow increasingly red, she was about to say something more when she was interrupted by Su Yaoyao's extremely flustered voice.
"Um... Grandma, I'm going to be late for work, I have to go now!"
After saying this, Su Yaoyao didn't give Old Madam Yu time to react and slipped out with her bag in her hand.
Madam Yu: "..."
Aunt Zhang, who was just coming out of the kitchen with a plate of breakfast in her hand, only had time to catch a glimpse of Su Yaoyao's back.
"Madam, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Aunt Zhang's voice finally brought the old lady to her senses. Upon hearing her words, a disdainful smile appeared on the old lady's face.
"Sigh, that's how young people are. They get so shy about the smallest things that they're afraid to face anyone."
Don't think she doesn't know. Su Yaoyao has taken leave, and her vacation isn't over yet. What kind of work is she going to do?
Aunt Zhang was completely confused by what the old lady Yu was saying, so she couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.
"Madam, what did Madam do that made her so shy that she doesn't want to see anyone?"
When the old lady heard her ask this, she narrowed her eyes and asked, "You really want to hear it?"
Aunt Zhang placed the tray on the table, looking at the somewhat malicious smile on Madam Yu's face, and hesitated.
Reason told her that the wise thing to do was to change the subject when the old lady showed such an expression, but a curious little voice inside her was also nagging at her.
Seeing the conflicted expression on her face, Madam Yu finally smiled and waved to her.
"Come here, I want to tell you something in secret."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang leaned close to Old Madam Yu's ear.
As the old man spoke, his expression became somewhat agitated.
When Aunt Zhang heard clearly what the old lady had said, her face couldn't help but turn red.
"Madam...you...how could you be like this?"
Madam Yu glared at her; "What did I do wrong? Humph, I didn't do it on purpose."
Madam Yu paused for a moment, then added, "Besides, what's the big deal? When I was young, I was with Chi Yan's grandfather..."
"Cough cough cough..."
Before Madam Yu could finish speaking, Aunt Zhang coughed violently.
Aunt Zhang was utterly speechless. Was this something she could listen to?
"Um, Madam, do you mean you want the young master and madam to stay here indefinitely?"
Aunt Zhang's question hit the nail on the head.
In her heart, Madam Yu hoped that Su Yaoyao and Yu Chiyan could continue to live in the old house, but young people still need their own space.
It was indeed a bit embarrassing that she caught me in what happened last night.
“Oh dear, this child has grown up. How can he stay by the side of this old woman forever?”
When Aunt Zhang heard the old woman say this, she understood what she meant.
Neither of them spoke again in the end.
...
As soon as Su Yaoyao stepped out of the Yu family's gate, Huo Xiting called.
"Xi Ting, is there something you need?"
"Yaoyao, I've had some free time these past couple of days, and I wanted to give you that thing. Are you free later?"
Su Yaoyao smiled and said, "Yes, where are you now? I'll come find you."
"good."
Huo Xiting sent her the address of a Western restaurant. Without thinking much, Su Yaoyao immediately told the driver to turn the car around and head towards the restaurant.
...
About half an hour later.
The car came to a smooth stop. Su Yaoyao got out, paid the fare, and walked straight inside.
She had been to this restaurant with Huo Xiting before, and the first thing she saw when she entered was Huo Xiting.
He looked much more haggard after just two days.
Since Yu Qing's downfall, Huo Xiting, as Yu Qing's only adopted son, was also invited to investigate. Coupled with the issue of his identity, the old guys in the Yu family were unwilling to let Huo Xiting continue to manage the Yu family, and they used the same trick a second time.
This time, however, those old guys didn't intend to send Yu Chiyan back; instead, they planned to select a new chairman from within the Yu Group.
However, this idea was cut off by Yu Chiyan as soon as it took root.
Since he had planned to set up a scheme from the beginning, how could he possibly let the Yu family be destroyed in his own hands?
How have you been lately?
She sat down directly opposite Huo Xiting, her tone tinged with concern.
The realization that Su Yaoyao still cares about him makes Huo Xiting extremely happy.
"I'm fine, how about you?"
Su Yaoyao smiled; "I'm fine."
After a brief exchange, the two fell silent.
A bitter look suddenly appeared on Huo Xiting's face; "Right now, I don't know what to say to you."
Hearing his words, Su Yaoyao felt very uncomfortable.
Huo Xiting reached out to her when she was at her most helpless and desperate.
Although there was some scheming involved, Su Yaoyao still felt grateful.
