“Alright, then go do your thing. Sister Ying and I will go back to my office for another meeting.”
After Li Muyao told Wu Yuanyuan to return to her post, she went to her office with Huang Yuying for a meeting.
After the meeting, Li Muyao planned to invite everyone to dinner. However, Huo Jiling called her and asked her to go to his company.
“Sister Ying, I’ll pay for the meal. Just pay the bill. Everyone can eat whatever they want!”
Anyway, it was on the company’s account, so it was not a problem for Li Muyao not to go.
When Li Muyao went to Huo Jiling’s office, she saw Huo Jiling’s handsome eyebrows frowning. He was still holding his phone. When he saw her, he told Li Muyao to sit down while he continued to make the call.
He sat there for half an hour.
Huo Jiling hung up the phone and walked over to Li Muyao’s sofa. He held her hand and said, “Mooncake, Grandma is not feeling well. I want you to accompany me back to Jin City to see Grandma, okay?
She needs to go abroad for surgery, but she doesn’t want me to accompany her. Moreover, if it wasn’t for sister-in-law calling me, I wouldn’t even know that sister-in-law would be accompanying grandma overseas for treatment in three days.”
To be honest, Huo Jiling had just returned to Sun City from Jin City, and his grandma had been very nice to him last time.
However, not long after, Grandma was not doing well.
He needed surgery, but Huo Jiling didn’t know what surgery it was.
Her sister-in-law didn’t say anything over the phone. She just asked Huo Jiling if he was free in the next two days and if he was, she would go back to Jin City.
Li Muyao was shocked by Huo Ling’s words. Usually, no one would use the word ” not too good ” to describe an elderly woman. If they did, then the old lady was really not in a good state.
Moreover, he needed to go abroad for surgery. That would be a little serious.
“What’s wrong with Grandma Huo? He still needed to go abroad for surgery? I’m not very busy recently. If there’s anything, I can just call Sister Ying and do it remotely.
As for Little Yu and Yang Yang, I’ll ask Sister Yujin to let them stay at Sister Yujin’s house tor a tew days. I’ll accompany you back to Jincheng to see
Grandma Huo.”
Li Muyao held Huo Jiling’s beautiful hand and patted the back of his hand with her other hand. “Don’t worry. Grandma Huo will definitely be fine. If it’s really serious, your brother and sister-in-law won’t hide it from you. Should we leave tonight or wait until tomorrow?”
Huo Jiling was comforted by the girl he liked, and he felt much more at ease.
To be honest, Huo Jiling was really shocked when he heard his sister-in-law say that Grandma wasn’t doing well. Huo Jiling had been close to his grandmother since he was young, and there were many traces of his grandmother in his life.
Especially when Huo Jiling fell in love with Li Muyao, Grandma played a decisive role in the beginning.
Of course, the most important thing was that Huo Jiling loved his grandmother so much that no one could imagine.
“Tomorrow. We still have to rest well tonight. I still have some work to finish after I leave tomorrow. Mooncake, you can go back later and arrange for Little
Yu and Yang Yang.”
I also packed my luggage. No matter how my grandmother’s condition is, I want to stay by her side more. If he went abroad…Let’s talk about it later!” Huo Jiling knew that his sister-in-law was going to take his grandmother abroad to get sick, so his first reaction was to go with her.
After all, Huo Jiling had been abroad for a long time. But when he heard that his grandmother was going to United Kingdom, he couldn’t bring himself to go with her. Besides, his sister-in-law told him clearly that his grandmother didn’t want him to go with her.
“Alright! Then stay in the company and work overtime. Send me a text message when you book the flight for tomorrow. I’ve also helped you pack your luggage.”
Li Muyao thought about it and agreed. Indeed, she was more free.
Huo Jiling’s company had recently launched a Mini games. As the boss and one of the important people involved in the design, Huo Jiling was indeed a little busy.
Hearing that Li Muyao was going to help him pack his luggage, Huo Jiling was immediately happy. He let go of Li Muyao’s soft hand and hugged her. Li Muyao’s body immediately stiffened. Huo Jiling didn’t let go, but leaned his head against Li Muyao’s neck and said angrily,”Mooncake, it’s good to have you around!”
Li Muyao didn’t understand what Huo Jiling meant, but after a few seconds, she understood what he meant.
Her stiff body slowly relaxed. Li Muyao patted Huo Jiling’s back.””Be good.
Believe me, Grandma Huo will definitely live to a hundred years old. This time, I’m going abroad with your sister-in-law to treat her illness. I’m sure she’ll recover soon.
Go back to your work. We’ll go back to Jin City together tomorrow. If you’re working overtime tonight, I’ll bring you supper later. Of course, it would be even better if you could come home to eat. Anyway, you can take your work home and do it!”
Huo Jiling’s work was basically done on a computer. However, he brought home a laptop. Even if the desktop computer in the office was connected, it was not as fast as the processor of the desktop computer.
“Mooncake, I can’t go back tonight. I have to do the final test before the launch, so I can only stay in the company. I can only trouble you to send the mooncakes to the company. I’ll get the chauffeur to pick you up at ten o’clock tonight. It’s not convenient or safe for a girl to drive at night.
It’s settled then. I’m going to work. It’s about time. Do you want to pick up Little Yu and Yang Yang?”Even though the twins had a school bus to pick them up. But… The twins wanted Li Muyao to pick them up.
The twins, Li Muyu and Li Muyang, had mentioned this to Huo Jiling.
“Alright, then I’ll go pick up Xiao Yu and Yang Yang. I’ll be waiting at home for your driver to pick me up at ten. Do you need me to help your company’s employees order some takeout?”
Working overtime at night was indeed a need for supper.
As the boss, Huo Jiling had food delivered to him, so his employees were hungry too!
Li Muyao thought that she couldn’t cook for so many people, but she could get takeout.
Huo Jiling was pleasantly surprised by Li Muyao’s words. He suppressed the smile on his face and replied,”Sure. Thank you for your hard work, Mooncake. I’ll tell Special Assistant Jiang and the others later that you’ll buy takeout and treat them to supper tonight.”
“Okay, then it’s settled. I’ll leave first.”
Li Muyao was sent into the elevator by Huo Jiling. When she got into the car, she realized that she didn’t say anything. Why did Huo Jiling’s originally uncomfortable face turn into a smile?
Li Muyao didn’t know that Huo Jiling was suddenly happy because she had started to help him think about some things as his girlfriend..
