Chapter 97
Huo Xiaoxiao was woken up by his constantly shaking mobile phone the next day. +++Full American novel: www.sto123.cc
After being picked up from the airport by Huo Suicheng last night, because of the time difference, I didn't sleep for one night, and it was only a few minutes until dawn. I was awakened by the constantly vibrating prompts. Huo Xiaoxiao got up with a stomach. gas.
Hands for the phone under the pillow, and he picked it up with his eyes half open, and the messages in WeChat popped out one by one.
All know that she let her come together after returning home.
Huo Xiaoxiao ignored it and broke the net to continue to sleep.
She slept until one o'clock in the afternoon when the sun was shining, and her bones were crisp.
The plane meal was not good. When I arrived at home early last night, I didn’t feel awake to wake up Aunt Zhao. I just ate the bowl of noodles to eat.
She stroked her shriveled belly and went downstairs in pajamas to find food.
On the weekend, Huo Suicheng was at home, sitting on the sofa leisurely and complacently. When he saw Huo Xiaoxiao's unshaven borders coming down from the upstairs, his eyebrows were wrinkled, but he didn't want to say anything. Looking down at the tablet, he could not see it.
"Dad, early."
Huo Suicheng's eyelids didn't lift, "Uh."
Aunt Zhao came out of the kitchen, "Little awake? I left you a dish in the kitchen to see what I wanted to eat."
Huo Xiaoxiao heard the words and hurriedly entered the kitchen, seeing that Aunt Zhao came out of the refrigerator was all she likes to eat, and excitedly hugged Aunt Zhao's waist, "Aunt Zhao, you are still the best for me."
Aunt Zhao puts the food in the microwave and warms up to Huo Xiaoxiao:
I saw the bowl in the sink this morning. Was it hungry last night? Why didn’t I tell Aunt Zhao in advance when I returned home? You are preparing for supper."
"I wanted to give you a surprise, but the flight was delayed."
"The old man is taking a nap, knowing that you came back with great pleasure early in the morning, but you have slept until now."
"When Grandpa wakes up in the afternoon, I will talk to him well."
Ding
The food in the microwave oven was hot. Aunt Zhao served the table and brought the chopsticks. "Hurry up."
Huo Xiaoxiao sat down at the dining table and enjoyed himself. He was satisfied after a full stomach, and he calmed the suffocation in his heart after waking up early in the morning.
Go back to the living room and see her dad watching the tablet in that posture.
Although she usually doesn't deal with it at home, she still wonders about her dad for so many years abroad.
Move over to sit next to him, move over to look at the tablet in his hand, "Dad, are you..."
Huo Suicheng leaned back and looked at her frowningly. "Did you get up to wash your face and brush your teeth?"
Huo Xiaoxiao, who just wanted to cultivate his father-daughter relationship with Huo Suicheng's family, was disappointed and wrote with displeasure on his face, "Dad, I brushed my teeth, and I have no breath."
Huo Suicheng's chin pointed upstairs, "Go up to change clothes and come and talk to me."
"..."
Huo Suicheng glanced at her, "Go."
Helpless, Huo Xiaoxiao had to go upstairs and change clothes before coming back.
Four years ago, her ruthless father threw her to study abroad. It was four years after she lost her life. How strange and unfamiliar should she be in an unfamiliar place. She was an underage girl, how afraid she was. It’s hard to graduate. Although I returned to China secretly, it was also a surprise for her dad. After Father’s Day, her dad did well. She didn’t have a good complexion for her on her way home last night. Disgusted.
"Dad, is your company all right today?"
"There will be a meeting in the afternoon, don't worry." Huo Suicheng didn't lift his eyes, and brushed his tablet alone. "Play by yourself, don't disturb me."
"..."
Her dad doesn't love her anymore.
Definitely.
Over the years, she has also been paying attention to her father's developments. Some financial magazines and trail news have occasionally reported her father, some are about business reports, and some are candid photos of private life.
Gossip of her girlfriend’s illegitimate child is not strange, but her dad usually has no response. The most serious scandal is that her dad bought a sky-high price property abroad and prepared a marriage room for marriage.
Huo Xiaoxiao was also forced to live in that "marriage room" for several years.
"Dad, is there anyone out there?"
Huo Suicheng's hand on the screen was stagnant.
Huo Xiaoxiao sat next to him, the more likely it was.
Her dad seemed to be older, but for ten years, when she was studying abroad, the photos of her and her dad were seen by classmates. They all thought they were brothers and sisters, and neither went to the father and daughter. miss you.
Although her dad hasn't brought anyone home in recent years, she can't keep the flags fluttering outside.
This kind of thing is actually normal, Huo Xiaoxiao looks quite open, man, normal demand.
"Or do you have a son outside?"
Huo Suicheng's thin eyelids lifted, and a look of "how could I have such a daughter" looked at her.
"……daughter?"
"Huo Xiaoxiao, you studied directorship abroad? Do you have enough imagination to invest in a show?"
"Then you despise me so early in the morning? Dad, we haven't seen you for so many years, don't you miss me? Don't want to chat with me and cultivate the relationship between father and daughter? You are not curious about what I have experienced abroad? How about learning without friends..."
A mouth pit pit said endlessly.
Huo Suicheng put the tablet aside, and finally opened his mouth, "Huo Xiaoxiao, in addition to the big and small festivals in these four years, you come back once a month on average, two or three times in a few months or even a month, grandpa After getting better, I flew over to see you no less than ten times. As for me, do you remember how many times I have visited you? Can’t remember? The video call starts one hour every night, whether it is aidan or willia, or you are in the bathroom The Vivian who met you kindly handed you a tissue, you have said that, in addition, you have sent your test scores to my mailbox every time you study, Huo Xiaoxiao, what else do you know I don’t know ?"
Daddy, that's right.
It's the same as before.
Huo Suicheng picked up the tablet again and continued to look at the full screen of boring data reports.
In the elevator, Mr. Huo was helped out by people, and the smile on the old man's face could not be stopped.
"Little finally got up?"
"grandfather!"
Mr. Huo sat on the sofa. The old man was good at his age. He was not as energetic as he was at that time. He looked at Huo Xiaoxiao sitting beside him with reproach. "If you come back without a word, why don't you tell your family in advance Sound, what happened last night? Your dad said your wallet and mobile phone were stolen?"
"I did not notice."
"Be careful next time."
"You know, if it wasn't for the plane to be late, I must have had time for Grandpa's Day yesterday."
Grandpa Huo smiled, "Yes, Grandpa of your heart knows. By the way, after graduation, what are your plans?"
The Huo family has only her daughter. At that time, Huo Suicheng sent her to go abroad. It should be said that she had to let her go to study finance and later succeed Huo Shi.
But Huosuicheng did not.
Huo Xiaoxiao didn't let a major related to finance.
Of course, Huo Xiaoxiao's will is not in finance. She is naturally not interested in numbers. Relatively speaking, liberal arts is her strong point.
"Grandpa, I just returned, and the jet lag hasn't reversed yet."
"Yes, I will talk about it later."
Huo Xiaoxiao accompanied the grandfather to talk, but the old man was okay, but he was not in good spirits, and he would get tired when he laughed.
"Don't say, Grandpa is tired, you have a good rest, just returned to China to go out and have fun with friends."
Huo Xiaoxiao smiled and sent Grandpa back to his room.
Since returning home, Huo Xiaoxiao's mobile phone WeChat has been exploding. Among them, Lu Jingyi is the most popular, saying that he recently raised a horse and wants to invite her to play.
As long as Lu Jing was not sent to study abroad, he was not a material for reading. He spent all day long and did not expect him to inherit his family business. Anyway, there was a son at home who could count on Lu Jingyi.
Although several people are not in the same school, they are often in contact.
Huo Xiaoxiao readily replied: "Okay, come pick me up."
Lu Jing Yifei quickly replied: I don’t want to go, I’ll give you the address and drive by myself.
Huo Xiaoxiao: No sincerity.
Lu Jingyi: Miss you, please spare me, I dare not go to your house.
Lu Jingyi: "Location"
... Huo Xiaoxiao glanced at the phone and Huo Suicheng on the sofa.
Lu Jingyi's courage is also very small, is her father a flood beast?
"Dad, I'm going out once in the afternoon."
Huo Suicheng looked up at her, "Is the jet lag not turned upside down? Go out so anxiously?"
"Lu Jingyi said that he raised a horse and asked me to play with it. I was also curious." Speaking of which, she sat down beside her dad smilingly and reached out to him, "Dad..."
"Something?"
"It's no big deal. The 911 in the garage drives me."
"The key is in the study, get it yourself."
"Thank you dad! There is one more thing..." Huo Xiaoxiao tried to make himself look pitiful, "I have no money."
Her pocket money has been strictly controlled in recent years. Even when abroad, Huo Suicheng did not let her spend money like other rich second generation. Every month, pocket money has a fixed amount, so that she now has cash deposits. , Not even six digits.
Grandpa occasionally crams her money, but can't escape her dad's eyes.
Of course, although she didn't have much money in her pocket, she lacked nothing.
But now that I have graduated from college and haven't worked yet, this time is very embarrassing.
Gnawing old, naked gnawing old!
Huo Suicheng asked her in doubt: "I didn't call you this month's pocket money two days ago? Did you lose a penny?"
"Six or seventy-eight thousand left, but I just returned to China and I went out to play. I can't rub against anyone else? That would lose your face? What's more, Dad, I'm an adult now. not enough money."
Huo Suicheng looked at her in silence for one second, two seconds, ten seconds, "A year ago, you said that one month's pocket money was not enough. Let me increase the amount. At that time, who assured me that I would not reach out to me again after graduation. Pocket money?"
Huo Xiaoxiao lowered his shameful head, "It's me."
She sighed faintly.
The wealthy second generation of other people didn't blink at the eyes of luxury goods, but now she doesn't even own pocket money.
Her dad is too stingy.
Or is it that their family is going bankrupt?
"But I don't have a job yet, dad, do you want to starve me?"
"Are you missing something at home?"
"Then I usually buy something..."
"What do you want to buy?"
Huo Xiaoxiao thought about it, "Clothes."
"Which piece of clothing did you like that was not selected and sent to the house for me to swipe? You don't know how much clothes in the cabinet in your room were not worn?"
...Her dad doesn't complain about her mouth now?
Huo Xiaoxiao molars.
Forget it, she is not the kind of boneless person. At first, if you say yes, don’t, don’t do it. She really doesn’t deserve this gnawing old family!
It’s not that there is no money for New Year’s, the small treasury is still there. She has been saved in these years, and she is still a rich lady.
Huo Xiaoxiao suddenly got up, glared at her dad, and turned upstairs to the study to get the car key.
Huo Suicheng is already a mature and stable age, and the light sports car has never been driven. The few sports cars in the garage that have been bought for less than two years can be imagined for whom.
The sports car key was placed in the drawer of the study bookcase. Huo Xiaoxiao took it out, but there was a credit card under the key.
She was sharp-eyed and saw the embossment of the pinyin of her name on the face of the credit card.
It is clear to whom this is prepared.
Huo Xiaoxiao took the key and credit card down the stairs, cleared his throat in front of her dad, and pretended to ask: "Dad, I found this credit card with my name written in your study drawer. It was my grandfather who helped me Is it?"
Huo Suicheng reached out to her, "Give me the card, I will ask your grandfather later."
Huo Xiaoxiao didn't care about her father's words, hugged him, "Dad, thank you."
"Don't come back too late, drive safely."
"I remember."
Finished driving and went out.
The address Lu Jingyi sent her was an equestrian club. The club is quite famous, mainly because those fun rich people have been tired of all kinds of entertainment facilities in recent years. The sport of horse riding does not know when it started to rise. Too.
Renting a horse is not expensive, if you have money, you can also keep a horse in the club.
Lu Jingyi has recently raised a very good one. If love is the best, you have to show off everything.
The club arrived soon after, Lu Jing came out to pick her up in advance, and gave her a big hug as soon as she met.
It’s not too many years I haven’t seen it. Every time I return to my country, I will always be pulled out and gather. It’s only been two or three months since the last meeting.
"Little, you are finally here, knowing how long I have waited for you? Take a walk and take you to see the horse I raised."
At the age of three, when I saw the old man, Lu Jingyi did not change much since he was a child. Still, that pair of lip-smoothing tongues couldn't be adjusted. With that pair of peach eyes, I don't know how many simple little girls were hooked.
"Let you go and pick me up, you don't go, I really don't have enough friends."
"Come on, last time I accompanied my brother to a banquet and met your dad. I didn't eat and drink well all night. Then let me go to the house and you will spare me. I see that Yi Qian can withstand you. Dad's pressure."
Speaking of Yi Qian, Huo Xiaoxiao raised his mouth again, "What about Yi Qian? Is he here?"
"Not yet, the company is busy, and said it was coming late."
Yi Qian is no different from them. Heir to inherit a family business is a stubborn thing. Before graduating from college, he was already familiar with company affairs under his dad's hands.
"What about Xiang Chen and Jiang Yue?"
"Don't mention, Xiang Chen's study abroad is still abroad. You don't know that, Jiang Yue is also miserable. He was forced to study by his dad all day."
"I think we are the happiest of you. I eat, drink and play all day, and I don't worry about anything."
Lu Jing raised an eyebrow and smiled, "That is. Here, I will introduce you to a few friends."
A few young and beautiful men and women were sitting in the lounge area. They were all dressed up. They wanted to be the rich second generation Lu Jingyi knew, but Huo Xiaoxiao had not seen much.
Lu Jingyi whispered in her ear: "Wine friends, just play."
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded.
"Let me introduce to you, I am young, Huo Xiaoxiao, you should have heard of it, just returned to China, and met."
The sitting couple stood up one after another. "Of course I have heard of it, but I haven't seen it. I didn't expect to be so beautiful."
Lu Jingyi looked at the set of near men, "Don't move your mind, little is famous."
Huo Xiaoxiao glanced at him, "Don't talk nonsense about any famous flowers."
"Huh, Yi Qian hasn't taken you down yet? Will he?"
Huo Xiaoxiao gave him a glance and smiled and said to the people in front of him, "Hello, I am Huo Xiaoxiao."
Several people introduced themselves one after another.
Lu Jingyi asked the waiter to bring a glass of juice. Several people sat down and chatted a few words, most of them were talking, Huo Xiaoxiao listened.
Since all of them are Lu Jingyi's wine and meat friends, she was too lazy to negotiate with her.
It didn't take long for the staff to pull out a horse.
"Look, that's the horse I raised, how?"
The horse raised by Lu Jingyi was sturdy and tall, with shiny hair, and his horseshoes were standing high with his neck high. At first glance, he took good care of it. Now he is being comforted by the staff of the club. .
Huo Xiaoxiao watched the horse up close and touched his fur.
"How's that good?"
Huo Xiaoxiao has no research on horses and can only say politely: "Well, not bad."
"Last two laps last time?"
"I do not know."
"It's okay, just take the horse rope and walk slowly. Believe me, it won't be a problem."
Huo Xiaoxiao stepped on the stirrup with the help of the staff and sat on the saddle.
I didn't think the horse was high when I didn't come up. As soon as I sat up, I found it outrageously high. Huo Xiaoxiao, who was afraid of height, grabbed the horse rope tightly and told the staff to slow down.
The horse took a few laps under the traction of the staff.
Huo Xiaoxiao sat high and glanced at the entrance where a staff led someone in. The outline was vaguely like Yi Qian.
The horse turned around, Huo Xiaoxiao turned his head to look at the entrance, and came closer to find that it was indeed Yi Qian.
"Yi Qian!"
She waved her hand, and the horse rope she was holding was naturally loose. The horse felt the movement and sound on her back. She walked two steps forward. Huo Xiaoxiao accidentally threw himself forward and almost fell off the horse. Go down.
Fortunately, the staff holding Ma Sheng stabilized, before this tragedy was caused.
Huo Xiaoxiao let out a sigh of relief, and just wanted to get off the horse, he saw Yi Qian coming to her.
I haven’t seen it for a while, and Yi Qian, who has taken off his school uniform, is much more mature than before. The greenness of the school has been polished cleanly by his father.
It should have just come from the company, the suit had not been changed, he took off his coat, and the white shirt cuffs were elbowed, neat and clean.
She stretched out her hand on the horseback, "You came over so late on the first day of my return home, and helped me down."
Yi Qian looked up at her and grabbed her hand, "Slow down, I will follow you."
Huo Xiaoxiao jumped down, but unfortunately she ignored the water stains on the ground, her feet slipped at the moment she just landed, she didn't stand at all, and the whole person had to pounce into Yi Qian's arms.
He did not fall, but his feet fell.
"hiss"
Yi Qian picked her up steadily, seeing her with pain all over her face and a stretched face, "Does it hurt?"
"really hurts."
"Can you go?"
"Foot is not broken, but you hold me up." Huo Xiaoxiao is still Zhijian, climbing Yi Qian with both hands, limping back to the rest area.
"What's wrong? Falling?"
Yi Qian glanced at Huo Xiaoxiao's ankle injury, "Go and find the medicine for the beating, it should be twisted, nothing."
"It's okay? Yi Qian, look at it, it's all red and blue, maybe a fracture!" Huo Xiaoxiao took off his shoes and rubbed his ankles, and immediately had a pain in his teeth. "No, no, it hurts, I blame you, Don't catch me."
"Who made you jump down?"
Huo Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to kick him, turned his head to look at Lu Jingyi, "Look, just like him, can he?"
Lu Jing shook his head, "No."
After so many years, Yi Qian's mouth still won't coax the girl, and she deserves it.
The staff brought me the medicine oil, and Yi Qian pours it on his palm, rubbing it at Huo Xiaoxiao's ankle.
The palm temperature after rubbing the medicated oil rose sharply, pressing on the ankle, almost burning.
"It hurts...you tap it, it's sore!"
Yi Qian frowned and looked at the red and swollen ankles, "Hold on."
"..." Huo Xiaoxiao gritted his teeth in tears.
After rubbing for a while, the pain in the ankle was finally reduced, but the sprained area was swollen to the naked eye, and the pain was painful when it touched the ground.
"No, I can't go home today, otherwise my dad must say me again."
Lu Jing is very experienced in nightlife, "Not going home? OK, I will arrange it at night."
Huo Xiaoxiao waved his hand, and never returned home at night. Where did she come from?
"No, I'll go back to Yipin Lanting to deal with one night, and I will spend the night with you. My dad is afraid that I will peel my skin."
Lu Jingyi didn't force him. He really took Huo Xiaoxiao to play for one night. Uncle Huo estimated that he would also take his skin off.
Because of a foot injury, Huo Xiaoxiao stayed in the rest area all afternoon and did not move, watching Jing Yi and his friends playing on the horse farm. Yi Qian also seemed to be uninterested in the sport, and did not move away from sitting beside her.
"Yi Qian, how do I think my ankles are getting more and more swollen?"
Yi Qian's brow furrowed with just a glance, hugged her knees effortlessly, and hugged her up.
Huo Xiaoxiao was shocked and hugged his neck with both hands. "Why? Frighten me."
"Go to the hospital." He said to the staff at the scene: "We will go to the hospital when asked later."
"Ok."
Yi Qian took Huo Xiaoxiao stride out and drove to the hospital.
Seeing that his ankles were getting more and more swollen, Huo Xiaoxiao once thought it was a fracture, but the results of the hospital examination only twisted.
"Foot is okay, rest assured." The doctor looked at the film and prescribed some medicine to her. "It's okay to apply the medicine after two days, but you still need to pay attention. Okay, boyfriend hug him back."
"..." Huo Xiaoxiao glanced at Yi Qian and held out his hand.
Yi Qian silently hugged Huo Xiaoxiao.
Just stepping out of the hospital, it was mostly dark outside. Huo Xiaoxiao sat on the co-pilot of Yi Qian car and prayed to look at him, "Yi Qian, you shouldn't know about this matter, send me to Yipin Lanting, OK?"
"You go to Yipin Lanting, who takes care of you?"
"The doctor said, it will be fine in two days, not to mention that I am such a big person that I can take care of myself, this little injury is really fine."
Yi Qian did not speak, but refused with silence.
"You know my dad, he must be nagging me when I go back here, maybe I won't be allowed to go out in the next few days, you can help me, don't send me home."
"Yi Qian"
"Yi Qian, please."
"Okay, you say something."
Huo Xiaoxiao urged, Yi Qian's stretched face helplessly said: "I'm not relieved."
"There's nothing to worry about," Huo Xiaoxiao muttered, and then said, "You send me to Yipin Lanting first, this little injury I don't want my dad and grandpa to see, I can walk after swelling tomorrow Go home, just sleep for one night."
"I have been abroad for four years. What can I worry about in one night?"
Under Huo Xiaoxiao's enthusiasm, Yi Qian eventually sent her to Yipin Lanting. Going upstairs, Huo Xiaoxiao took out the phone code while taking out the door code and took Zhang Zhao to send to her dad.
WeChat is written like this: Dad, I'm too tired to move. I live in Yipin Lanting tonight and won't go back.
A photo was attached afterwards.
　嚓
The door opened.
Yi Qian walked into the door holding Huo Xiaoxiao, and walked at the entrance and said, "I still find it inconvenient for you to be here alone."
"Then you stay with me? Anyway, I won't go home."
Yi Qian's lips squeezed tightly without answering.
"Brother Yi Qian? Brother Yi? Brother Qian? Brother? You stay with others." Huo Xiaoxiao shook his goose bumps.
Just after entering the living room, the two realized that the lights in the whole room were on.
Before Huo Xiaoxiao came down from Yi Qian's arms, he saw Huo Suicheng in pajamas sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed and refreshing, his hair wet and dripping down, apparently just after taking a shower.
