In the Huo family鈥檚 mansion.
At the dining table, the family of the Huo Family was having their meal.
Huo Jiabao put down his chopsticks and said to Tang Yingyue, who was sitting across from him, "I鈥檓 going to the United States next week. I won鈥檛 be home for a few days."
Xu Lan, who was sitting beside him, immediately raised her head when she heard her words. "Brother Jiabao, you want to go to America?"
"What are we going to do in America? Don鈥檛 you hate long distance flights the most? " Tang Yingyue asked in surprise.
"To sign an important contract." Huojiao replied.
"Brother Jiabao, how many days are you going to go?" Xu Lan asked again.
"Three or four days. I鈥檓 not sure yet." Huo Jianji casually said.
Xu Lan took a glance at Tang Yingyue, then said with a face full of respect, "I don鈥檛 know what America looks like. I鈥檝e only seen it on TV and I鈥檝e never been able to see it for myself."
"What can it look like? It鈥檚 like it鈥檚 in the country, there are houses everywhere." Huo Jiabao disapproved.
"I heard from my classmates who came back from studying in the United States that the roads in the United States are very wide and people are very enthusiastic. The hamburgers are bigger than those in the country." Xu Lan said.
When Tang Yingyue heard this, she couldn鈥檛 help but frown. "Xu Lan, in front of others in the future, don鈥檛 ever speak like this and make them laugh. There is nothing special about the United States, it is just that the architectural style is different from ours, and the historical thickness is far less profound than that of our country and other European countries. "
"Aunty did indeed teach him a lesson. It was because I didn鈥檛 have enough experience." Xu Lan lowered her head as she spoke.
After all, she wasn鈥檛 a young miss from a wealthy family, and she did not have much experience. All these years, it was only because she was by her side that she had slowly gained a bit of a famous woman, but at the critical moment, she had already revealed her cowardice.
"Jiao, since you鈥檙e going to work in America, why don鈥檛 you bring Xu Lan along so that she can gain some experience." Tang Yingyue suggested.
Huo Ying naturally was unwilling when he heard this, "I鈥檒l bring her? "It鈥檚 not convenient. This time, the only two people who signed the contract are Qian Jun and me. It鈥檚 not good for two men like us."
"What鈥檚 wrong with that?" She鈥檚 not a child, and she doesn鈥檛 need your care. "It just so happens that I鈥檓 a bit worried if you go with Qian Jun, the two men. With Xu Lan by your side, I can take care of you if there鈥檚 anything I need to." The more Tang Yingyue spoke, the more she felt that it was necessary to have Xu Lan go with her.
"Aunt, maybe Brother Jiabao has other social events over there. It鈥檚 not convenient to take me with you. It鈥檚 okay, I won鈥檛 go and cause him any trouble." At this time, Xu Lan had a cute look on her face.
It was good that she didn鈥檛 say these words, but those words actually reminded Tang Yingyue of something.
She knew her son, a total playboy. Moreover, a foreign woman was open to temptation, so he might not have been able to resist it. Other than that, it would have been bad if he had added a mixed blood grandson to her list. With Xu Lan watching, she would feel more at ease.
Thinking this way, she changed from her initial tone of discussion to an order: "Jiao, listen to mom and bring Xu Lan along."
Huo Jiu didn鈥檛 mind if he didn鈥檛 bring Xu Lan. In any case, Xu Lan could fit all ten of his private jets.
However, the problem was that Xu Lan had always listened to everything her mother said. Bringing her along was the same as wearing a pair of eyes. He would more or less feel uncomfortable.
"Brother Jiabao, I won鈥檛 give you any trouble. When you come to America, just focus on your own business. I know English, so I can walk around by myself." At this time, Xu Lan blinked and said with an extremely sincere expression.
Huo Jianxue was still hesitant in his heart, but Tang Yingyue was suspicious, "Jiao, you aren鈥檛 willing to bring Xu Lan along. Could it be that there鈥檚 another reason? Speaking of which, it鈥檚 indeed a little strange that you鈥檙e suddenly going to the United States. Before, there were so many important contracts in the company, but didn鈥檛 you send Old Wu to sign them? "Now that I鈥檓 going to go over myself, I don鈥檛 think ..."
Seeing that his mother had already begun to analyze the situation, Huo Jiabao could only interrupt her. "Fine, fine, fine. Just take her along. But don鈥檛 hold me back when the time comes."
"I鈥檓 sure I won鈥檛 hold up your work, Brother Jiabao." Xu Lan promised with a sweet smile.
Huo Jiu pouted. He was still a bit unhappy, but he didn鈥檛 say anything more.
On the other side of the hospital, Chen Yanzhuo only stayed in the hospital for five days, but his body recovered a lot. With the doctor鈥檚 permission, he was discharged early.
Huo Xiwen hadn鈥檛 come to see him since the last time she came to the hospital to deliver the soup.
Although he was in favor of her in his heart, he was still somewhat gratified when he saw her retreat in the face of difficulties.
That afternoon, when he returned home from the hospital, the doorbell rang.
Vivian opened the door for him and saw a strange man standing there.
"Who are you looking for?" Vivian asked.
The man looked Vivian up and down and asked, "Who are you, Chen Yanzhuo?"
When Vivian heard this, she knew that he must be here to see Chen Yanzhuo. She knew most of the people who had come into contact with Chen Yanzhuo. She had never seen this man before, so for a moment, she was suspicious of his identity.
"Who are you?" she asked.
"I鈥檓 a friend of Huo XIwen." "Yes," he replied.
So it was Huo XIwen鈥檚 friend. Looking at his aggressive appearance, it couldn鈥檛 be that Huo XIwen had injured himself at Chen Yanzhuo鈥檚 place and her friend had come to seek an explanation on her behalf, right?
"I鈥檓 Zhuo鈥檚 girlfriend," Vivian said. "He鈥檚 not feeling well. I鈥檓 afraid he won鈥檛 be able to see guests."
"What did you say?" "You鈥檙e Chen Yanzhuo鈥檚 girlfriend?" Chen Zicheng had never dreamed that he would be so lucky to find Chen Yanzhuo and receive such an explosive piece of news. The heavens were truly helping him.
"Yes." Vivian saw the excitement on his face and wondered.
"What about Chen Yanzhuo? I want to see him. " Chen Zi Chen immediately said.
"Like I said, he鈥檚 not feeling well. He鈥檚 resting, so it鈥檚 inconvenient for him to see guests." Vivian had no intention of letting him in.
"Are you feeling really uncomfortable, or do you feel too ashamed to see others and want to be a turtle hiding in its shell?" Chen Zi Chen said with disdain.
He had thought that Chen Yanzhuo was some kind of good man. It turned out that he was the same as Chen Yanzhuo, who was also eating in a bowl, looking at the playboy in the pot.
"Vivian, who鈥檚 out there?" At this time, Chen Yanzhuo鈥檚 voice came from inside the room. Not long later, he had arrived at the door.
Upon seeing him, Chen Zicheng immediately stepped forward, "Mr. Chen, we meet again."
Chen Yanzhuo didn鈥檛 expect Chen Zichen to appear at his doorstep. Surprisingly, he looked at him with a calm expression, "Mr. Chen, what are you looking for?"
"Is that how you treat your guests? The customers are already at your doorstep, and you鈥檙e not letting them in? " Chen Zi Chen鈥檚 tone was laced with anger.
Chen Yanzhuo opened the door and said, "Come in."
Chen Zichen then swaggered into the house.
