Chapter 1149: Not Coming
"What are you thinking about so intently? Even your brows are furrowed." asked Huo's father.
"Nothing." Huo Yanxi pursed his lips and smiled. He raised his head and looked outside the garage, and asked casually, "By the way, where's mom? Is she home?"
"Watching TV."
Huo Yanxi said "oh", put his hands in his pockets, thought about it, and said: "Dad, do you know the situation at Mom's family?"
When Mr. Huo heard this, he was slightly stunned, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Seeing this, Huo Yanxi realized that his father must have known about this. He took out Song Zhi's business card and said, "The Song family came to see me this morning."
When Father Huo saw the two gold-plated words "Song Zhi" on the business card, his eyes narrowed and he asked, "What's the matter?"
"It is said that the old man of the Song family is critically ill, and asked Mom to go back..." Huo Yanxi roughly repeated what Song Zhi said. After he finished speaking, he asked again: "Why did Mom leave the Song family?"
Father Huo took the business card and said in a cold voice, "Except for your mother, no one in the Song family is a good person."
It was the first time that Huo Yanxi saw his father with such a cold expression, which was like a completely different person from his usual gentle appearance.
Mr. Huo didn't explain much and turned and walked into the house.
Huo Yanxi paused and followed him.
In the hall.
Song Ning was a little surprised when he saw the boss suddenly come back, "Boss?"
Huo Yanxi glanced at Huo's father, not knowing what he was going to do. He just nodded and replied, "The company is not busy today, so I'll come back early."
"Oh." Song Ning didn't think much about it, but when his eyes swept over Huo's father, he saw that his expression was a little strange, so he called him again.
Father Huo looked at Song Ning, who had his hands behind his back with the business card still between his fingertips.
Over the years, although the Song family was rarely mentioned at home, there were some people who could not be avoided.
With a sigh, Dad Huo pointed to the room and said, "Aning, I have something to tell you."
Song Ning's heart skipped a beat, the smile on her face froze slightly, and then she stood up.
Soon, the two returned to the room.
**
It’s almost eight o’clock in the evening, here at the hotel.
Song Zhi sat on the sofa in the suite, his arms folded across his chest, his eyes coldly fixed on the mobile phone on the coffee table.
Throughout the entire day, apart from the inquiry call from the Song family, he received almost no calls from any unfamiliar numbers.
Xiao Zhu looked at the time on his wrist, then turned to look at Song Zhi, "I'm afraid the young lady won't come."
Song Zhi closed his eyes and suppressed his anger.
"Otherwise, let's give her a call." Xiao Zhu asked in a low voice. He couldn't possibly come back empty-handed.
He just couldn't understand why the eldest young master insisted on not calling Song Ning. Maybe making a phone call wouldn't be that complicated.
"No need. If she doesn't come at eight o'clock, we'll leave." Song Zhi stood up.
When he returned to the hotel in the afternoon, he asked Xiao Zhu to book a flight back to Beijing, as he did not plan to stay here for long.
"Okay." Xiao Zhu nodded. He didn't know what Song Zhi was planning, so he had to follow his instructions.
Soon, it was eight o'clock.
The phone didn't ring and there was no knock on the door.
Song Zhi asked Xiao Zhu to leave with the suitcase. His face showed no emotion, but Xiao Zhu, who knew his character well, felt an inexplicable chill down his spine.
I'm afraid the eldest lady has really angered the eldest master this time.
When checking out downstairs, the cell phone in Song Zhi's pocket rang.
It's a text message.
