Yan Qing was feeling a bit bored staying at home that day, and she didn't know what Huo Beiting was busy with, as he was not at home. After thinking about it, she decided to go to her father's company to take a look.
It seemed like she hadn't visited her father's company for many days. Maybe this time she could take the opportunity to get something from her father. Thinking of this, Yan Qing chuckled.
When Yan Qing left, he did not tell Yan's father.
When they arrived at the company, the receptionist was about to make a phone call to report something when Yan Qing stopped her.
"No need to say anything, I can go up by myself!"
Yan Qing smiled and handed the small cake she had bought on the way to the front desk. "I saw this on the road. It smells good. I think you will like it!"
Yan Qing waved his hand and took the elevator upstairs.
When I arrived at Yan's father's office and just approached, I heard faint voices coming from inside. The voices sounded somewhat familiar.
Yan Qing was worried about delaying her father's work, so she strolled outside casually, and from time to time she would curiously go to an employee's computer to see what they were busy with.
After a while, Yan's father came out of the office. Next to him was an old man with a cane. He had gray hair and was wearing a navy blue shirt. Although he was using a cane, his body was not hunched at all.
"Qingqing?"
Father Yan saw Yan Qing's figure from a distance and shouted towards that direction.
Yan Qing turned around and saw the old man next to her. She lamented in her heart why she didn't call her father before coming! If she had known that Mr. Huo was here, she would have just joined in the fun!
"Qingqing! It's been such a long time!"
Huo Zhen smiled and waved at Yan Qing, the wrinkles on his face were tightly brought together because of the smile.
"Hello, Grandpa Huo!"
Yan Qing instantly turned into a good girl, walked up to Mr. Huo, and took the initiative to hold his hand.
Huo Zhen touched Yan Qing's furry head, and the smile in his eyes couldn't stop overflowing.
Yan Qing was feeling particularly lucky now. Fortunately, she was too lazy to put on makeup when she went out.
Huo Zhen and Yan's father originally planned to go out for lunch together and discuss business matters. Yan Qing came, so they added her to the group.
Yan Qing sat at the dining table somewhat awkwardly, with his hands placed stiffly on his knees.
While Huo Zhen was ordering the menu, Yan Qing secretly sent a message to her father, asking why Mr. Huo was here.
"I'm here to discuss business, and by the way, let me tell you about your marriage to the grandson of the Huo family."
Yan Qing looked at the message sent by her father, gave him a resentful look, and directly put the phone on the table, indicating that she didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.
Father Yan touched his nose, somewhat confused. He was just telling the truth and had no idea what made his precious daughter angry.
He gently poked Yan Qing's arm under the table and sent another message to her mobile phone.
"Why are you angry?"
Yan Qing glanced at him without paying any attention, and turned his head away, looking out the window, leaving his father with an angry look on his face.
Father Yan blinked, not understanding what was going on. When he was about to ask again, Huo Zhen had already ordered the dishes.
"I'm fine."
Huo Zhen's voice broke the atmosphere between the two, and Yan's father began to talk to Huo Zhen about business matters.
Yan Qing didn't understand these things, so she just focused on eating. She would only look up and agree with a word or two when Huo Zhen or Yan's father talked about her.
Maybe because he drank too much water, Yan Qing's stomach was bloated. He said goodbye to Yan's father and Huo Zhen and went to the toilet.
Yan's father was still brooding over why Yan Qing was angry. Not long after Yan Qing left, Yan's father followed him, using the excuse of going to the bathroom.
Huo Zhen didn't miss the interaction between Yan's father and Yan Qing at the dinner table. He just didn't say anything. It was really interesting to see the two of them quarreling.
When Yan Qing left, he didn't take his cell phone with him and left it on the table. Not long after he left, the cell phone rang.
Huo Zhen just glanced casually and happened to see Huo Beiting's name.
Huo Zhenwei raised his eyebrows, looked around guiltily, and secretly picked up the phone to answer it.
"Qingqing, when will you be back today? I bought you your favorite winter melon. How about making winter melon soup for you today?"
Huo Zhen couldn't help but click his tongue when he heard this, and he angrily yelled into the phone, "You little bastard! I've raised you, and when have you ever made me some winter melon soup? Who said a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen? What about now?"
Huo Beiting was stunned when he heard the voice. He took out his phone and took a look. It was indeed Yan Qing calling.
"Grandpa? Why did you answer the phone? Where's Qingqing?"
"Qingqing? Tsk tsk! You little brat, when did you learn to cook? When will you come home and make me some? I've never tasted your cooking!"
Huo Zhen felt a little jealous, but mostly happy.
Huo Beiting reluctantly agreed to go home and cook for Huo Zhen in the next two days, which made Huo Zhen feel a little more at ease.
"By the way, Grandpa, why are you with Qingqing?"
"How dare you say that? It's been so long, why haven't you caught her yet? I'm thinking about my granddaughter-in-law! If you don't bring her back to me, I'll have to come over and see for myself!"
When Huo Zhen said this, he began to blame Huo Beiting in his heart again, and said a string of words after another.
"Look at you, you've been living in someone else's house for so long, so it should be enough. But look at you, you haven't brought the person back to me yet. Are you capable of doing this? When can I see my granddaughter-in-law and when can I hold my great-grandson in my arms?"
Huo Zhen sighed softly, his tone full of disappointment.
Huo Beiting's face darkened. "Grandpa, this isn't something that can be accomplished in a day or two. Besides, my current identity... as you know, Grandpa, is quite sensitive. This has to be done slowly, right?"
"Slowly, slowly, you always give me the same answer. Give me a deadline!"
Huo Zhen was a little anxious, and his voice was inevitably a little loud.
Huo Beiting felt a headache after hearing this, so he deliberately screamed "ah ah" as if someone was calling him, and then immediately hung up the phone.
"This brat!"
Huo Zhen sighed and put down his phone, then nervously and secretly deleted the call record.
I was glad that Yan Qing didn't have a lock screen password on her phone, otherwise it would have been a disaster.
Not long after the phone call was hung up, Yan Qing and Yan's father came back one after another, both with smiles on their faces, obviously they had just had a conversation.
After returning, Huo Zhen noticed Yan Qing glanced at her phone. His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he was worried that he would be discovered to be abnormal. Fortunately, nothing happened. Yan Qing took a look and put down the phone.
Huo Zhen heaved a sigh of relief and continued chatting and laughing with Yan's father. He also teased Yan Qing from time to time, hoping that she would agree to the marriage with her grandson, but all these words were easily glossed over by Yan Qing.
