Chapter 398: Amazing
After Li Muyao tacitly admitted that she was Huo Jiling’s girlfriend, Huo Jifeng generously gave her a check for 10 million yuan as a greeting gift.
“This is Big Brother’s greeting gift. When Grandma and your sister-in-law come back tonight, we’ll have a good chat. Ling is fine, so I’ll go back to the company first. There’s a lot of work to do.
Mu Yao, if you have anything to do, just let Ling do it. The doctor said that it’s good for Ling to move around more.”
In fact, Huo Jifeng had always thought highly of Li Muyao, his future sister-in-law. Moreover, Li Muyao had helped the Huo Corporation gain a lot of benefits by doing charity in the name of his wife and the Huo Corporation last month.
Ten million was a bit tacky, but Huo Jifeng really had nothing to give except money. He just wanted to wait for his wife and grandmother to come back. When they officially met Li Muyao as family members, he would give her a house, a car, or jewelry.
Li Muyao blinked her eyes and looked at Huo Jiling. Should she accept it or not?
Moreover, wasn’t the operation of a rich person a little too generous?
She had just confirmed that they were a couple, and her big brother had given her ten million yuan. Li Muyao wanted to say more!
“Take it. Big brother gave it to you.”
Finally, Huo Jiling could touch Mooncake’s hair openly. After he was done, he helped Li Muyao to take it and even gave his brother a look, telling him to leave quickly.
Oh, thank you, Big Brother!”
Since they were already boyfriend and girlfriend, Li Muyao didn’t try to be pretentious.
Huo Jiling’s father had helped Li Muyao find a partner. Even though they had already canceled the engagement, Li Muyao had already agreed to be Huo Jiling’s girlfriend.
For Li Muyao and Huo Jiling, this was because they were not bound by the betrothal, so they were indeed more relaxed than before.
After Huo Jifeng left, Chu Ranran followed him downstairs. Her hair was tied up and she had changed back into the clothes she brought. However, when she saw Huo Jiling sitting next to Li Muyao and sharing a teacup with her, she cried out in surprise and pointed at them.”You, you…Sister Yao, has Second Brother Huo really become our brother-in-law?”
After asking, Chu Ranran nodded and continued, “It’s indeed as Cai Mao said. You two are very compatible. “Originally, Chu Ranran wanted to say, “Didn’t you just break off the engagement?”
Was she getting back together again?
Chu Ranran still didn’t know that Li Muyao and Huo Jiling had been betrothed to each other since they were kids. She simply thought that the two of them had arranged a marriage.
“Thank you. You and Cai Mao are indeed very similar.”
Huo Jiling was quite satisfied with the words ‘compatible’ and ‘brother-in-law’. When Huo Jiling had fallen into darkness, he had seen himself not returning to the country in advance. Li Muyao’s name was there, but she was not there. When he saw himself die, Huo Jiling’s heart ached so much that he couldn’t breathe. That kind of despair and regret was something Huo Jiling never wanted to have in his life.
Yes, Huo Jiling didn’t think he was scared of dying. What was scary was that he hadn’t confessed to the girl he liked yet, hadn’t made her accept him, and hadn’t written his name in his household register. Huo Jiling felt a hundred times worse than when he was in a coma.
After breakfast, Jiang Chao and Huo Jiling went to his study. Li Muyao, Huang
Yuying, and Chu Ranran sat in the living room, drinking tea, chatting, and watching TV.
Li Muyao felt a little powerless under Chu Ranran’s hesitant gaze. She put down the teacup and said,”Tell me, Churanran, what do you want to ask? If you continue to stare at me like this, you’re going to stare a hole in me.”
Huang Yuying laughed out loud and continued eating her fruit as if nothing had happened. Huang Yuying had expected President Huo and Li Muyao to become a couple.
Before Huo Jiling came back, Huang Yuying had received a message from her husband, saying that President Huo had changed a little. At that time, Huang Yuying didn’t understand what was different about President Huo, but when she saw him sitting next to Li Muyao and trying to drink tea from Li Muyao’s teacup, eat breakfast with Li Muyao’s chopsticks, and scoop porridge with her bowl, she was shocked.
Huang Yuying instantly understood that Huo Jiling had become more aggressive and brazenly declared his sovereignty over Li Muyao. Even the temperament between President Huo’s eyebrows had changed. He wondered if this was a kind of metaphysics.
Hence, Huang Yuying began to learn from her husband, quietly watching from the background, quietly enjoying the sweet and mild dog food.
She was not like Chu Ranran, who always wanted to gossip.
“Hehe, I’m just a little curious. Sister Yao, you like Second Brother Huo. Why did you break off the engagement back then? But now, she was willing to take photos with Quinn as a couple. Wasn’t that a little contradictory?” Chu Ranran finally asked the gossip that she had been struggling with.
“There’s no conflict. Other people can get back together after a divorce, but Huo Jiling and I broke off our engagement because we didn’t know each other well.
Now that we’ve gotten to know each other for a while, we have the intention to continue dating.”
Yes, that was it. Li Muyao felt that it should be like that.
“Oh!” Chu Ranran was obviously a little disappointed by this answer.
Just as she was about to continue asking, Aunty Li came in with He Xiangxiang, who had been here last night. When she saw Li Muyao, He Xiangxiang said, “I told your Auntie Li that I can find you myself.
Yaoyao, this morning, the entire Jin City circle was talking about Huo Jiling waking up. Is it true?
Last night, my grandmother told me that I didn’t quite believe it. After all, she’s in a vegetative state. How could she wake up after a few injections? This matter is like Grandma Huo’s. It’s quite metaphysical, right?”
Indeed, He Xiangxiang believed in Old Mrs. Hunt’s metaphysics more than her grandmother’s acupuncture skills. She also admired the former more.
Metaphysical, it was said to be fortune-telling. This sounded very impressive.
Moreover, He Xiangxiang had been trained in the army since she was young. She had a natural good impression and worship of the strong.
There was also metaphysics. China had thousands of years of culture and history, and it was something that could not be proven by science. It sounded high and mysterious.
So, when she woke up this morning and heard that Huo Jiling was awake, He Xiangxiang subconsciously thought that Old Madam Huo was the best, even though her grandma had scolded her at the breakfast table.
“Huo Jiling is indeed awake. He’s talking about work with his assistant upstairs.
When he’s done, I’ll ask him to go to your house and thank Grandma He.
Without her help, Huo Jiling wouldn’t have woken up so quickly.”
He Jiuzhen was a master of acupuncture. After she helped Huo Jiling with the acupuncture, he woke up almost immediately. In Li Muyao’s eyes, Mrs. He was really better than Mrs. Huo..
