Chapter 127 Huo Jinning is drunk



Huo Jinning was still worried about her grandmother's health, so she took her to the hospital for another check-up.

To everyone's delight, the results of this examination were significantly better than the last one, and Huo Jinning's worries were finally relieved.

Clearly, after Grandma stopped taking that medication, her condition naturally improved.

In addition, my grandfather's complexion looked much rosier.

She also thoughtfully brought some tea leaves and secretly gave them to her grandfather.

What made her even happier was that she learned from her maternal grandparents that her second uncle and second cousin had already started working at the company and were performing exceptionally well.

Originally, my grandfather had always hoped to hand over the company to my eldest uncle, but now he also thinks that my second uncle is a reliable person, and even has the idea of ​​distributing some of my eldest uncle's power to my second uncle.

In Huo Jinning's eyes, this was undoubtedly a good thing, so she took the initiative to say a few good words for her second uncle and second cousin.

Seeing how considerate and devoted Huo Jinning is to her family, the two elderly people felt deeply gratified.

Finally, Huo Jinning returned home satisfied.

Since her family reunion banquet, her aunt and uncle have returned to the United States and are planning to move their company from overseas to China.

...

"Mom and Dad, Sister, come quick! Today is the awards ceremony for the photography competition. I think Third Brother will definitely win an award, maybe even a gold medal!" Huo Jinning excitedly turned on the TV and called to her family to watch together.

She also prepared a bunch of snacks and fruits, such as French fries and cakes, and then sat comfortably on the sofa with her family, her eyes glued to the TV screen, afraid of missing any exciting moments.

Especially when the camera panned across Huo Chengyu, the two sisters were so excited that they cheered and jumped for joy, just like when they were chasing after a celebrity.

As time went on, Huo Chengyu's name was not among the awards presented so far. With only the last gold award remaining to be announced, everyone was so nervous that they dared not breathe, eagerly hoping to hear the name of the final winner from the host.

Finally, when the host announced that Huo Chengyu had won the gold medal, Huo Jinning jumped up from the sofa excitedly: "Wow, Third Brother is so awesome!"

She was overjoyed, dancing with excitement as if she were the one who had won the award.

Furthermore, Huo Chengyu thanked her at the awards ceremony: "The person I should thank most for achieving what I have today is my dear sister Ningning. Without her, I might not be standing here, so I want to say thank you to her!"

Upon hearing these words, Huo Jinning felt joy and gratitude, but also a touch of shyness and embarrassment.

She couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Do you think I'm going to be famous now? My third brother is really something, why would he say that..."

However, Huo Jinxin bluntly exposed her little scheme, saying, "Little sister, I think you're just showing off."

Unexpectedly, Huo Jinning not only didn't deny it, but shamelessly replied, "Hehe, sis, you're right. But I'm not just showing off, I just want everyone to know that we have such an outstanding older brother." After saying that, she playfully winked at her sister.

Seeing this, Huo Shan and Zhao Qiuying couldn't help but smile at each other.

They stood there, watching the two sisters tease each other with delight, their eyes full of affection and satisfaction.

Huo Jinning was so immersed in joy that she completely forgot an important thing—that her third brother's matter actually had nothing to do with her.

Although she was aware of her brother's stolen work and took precautions, her knowledge was ultimately not put to use.

Furthermore, Huo Chengyu became somewhat arrogant after winning the award, even forgetting that it was through Huo Jinning's words that his family learned in advance that his assistant had sold his photos to others.

In doing so, his actions were inadvertently exposed, but fortunately, no one noticed, and the matter was dropped.

"Mom, let's have a good celebration tonight, what do you say?" Huo Jinning said after her excitement subsided.

Actually, she just wanted to take the opportunity to eat a few more dishes.

"Your third brother can't make it back in time, so what's there to celebrate? We'll celebrate together when he gets back," Zhao Qiuying teased, trying to make Huo Jinning laugh.

"Mom, you can't say that. We can have a simple celebration for my third brother at home first, so everyone can be happy. Wouldn't that be better? Then we can celebrate again when he comes back." Huo Jinning hugged Zhao Qiuying's arm tightly and pleaded sweetly.

"Pfft, you little glutton, all you do is eat all day long, as if the family has mistreated you."

Zhao Qiuying couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw Huo Jinning spouting some nonsense.

"Mom, you know me best," Huo Jin said with a grin.

Of course, Huo Jinning eventually got to enjoy several more delicious dishes and even had a few glasses of red wine.

However, she became dizzy and disoriented immediately after only a tiny bit of alcohol.

Then, she started singing loudly to herself, but her singing was so bad that the rest of the family wished they didn't have ears at all.

In the end, it took Huo Jinxin a great deal of effort to drag Huo Jinning back to her room.

But to everyone's surprise, Huo Jinning didn't seem to want her to leave. He insisted that she praise his singing and offered to be her audience.

Just as Huo Jinxin was racking her brains trying to figure out how to get rid of the annoying singing, suddenly, a name popped into her mind—Fu Qinian.

"Little sister, you sang so well just now, has Fu Qinian heard you sing?"

"Fu Qinian?" Huo Jinning repeated groggily.

"Yes, has he heard of him?" In order to get rid of Huo Jinning as soon as possible, Huo Jinxin had no choice but to ask again patiently.

"No... Aqi, he has never heard me sing."

"Then why don't you sing it for him? After all, such a... beautiful voice deserves to be appreciated by more people." Huo Jinxin said this somewhat insincerely, so she paused for a moment before continuing to tempt Huo Jinning with her words.

"That's right, sis, you're absolutely right! But he's not here, how can we make him hear us?"

"You can send him a video, then he can hear it?"

"Yes, yes, send a video, but where did I put my phone? Where did it go?" Huo Jinning frantically started looking for her phone.

"Here it is." Huo Jinxin handed the phone to Huo Jinning.

Seeing Huo Jinning frantically searching for Fu Qinian's contact information on her phone, Huo Jinxin seized the opportunity to sneak away.

After successfully closing the door, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, my ears are finally free from this suffering."

And silently in her heart she said, "Fu Qinian, I'm sorry. Don't blame me, I was just creating an opportunity for you."
