"Did I hear it wrong?"

Because of the transfer of the content in Fatty's hands and the fact that the mid-term report was just around the corner, Cheng Yan was very busy working for a few days. It could even be said that he was so busy that he didn't even have time to pay attention to what Huo Sheng was doing these days. Tian was immersed in his desk catching up with the progress of all aspects.

Fortunately, although the content is a bit much, the difficulty is not bad. Finally, after the last week of get off work in a row, I completed the content at hand.

When Cheng Yan sorted out the email and forwarded it to Fatty Wang, it was already before get off work on Friday.

As soon as the fat man saw the content of the email, he smiled kindly, as if he didn't throw it directly without his consent, and boasted: "Thank you, thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to finish it here."

Hearing this, Cheng Yan nodded and didn't answer. He took the water cup and got up and walked over to the tea room.

Although he used to work overtime a lot in the previous days, Cheng Yan was mostly waiting for Huo Sheng at that time, and he was a little tired after a week's work just for the sake of work.

He picked up the coffee capsule, pressed the button, and the machine immediately made a thin hum.

There were footsteps outside the tea room, Cheng Yan peeled off the body leaning against the wall and stood up a little bit.

The person who came was Miao Yu, who looked around like a thief, came over after two seconds, and whispered, "Cheng Yan, are you free after get off work?"

"Huh? Is there something wrong?" Cheng Yan turned his head, his voice soft.

"That's right, that," Miao Yu said after a moment's hesitation. "There is a movie that is showing today. I don't want to go alone. If you have time after get off work, go with me."

Cheng Yan didn't answer after listening, and was slowly thinking about what to say in his mind, but unexpectedly heard that there seemed to be some noise in the big office.

Miao Yu, who didn't wait for an answer, suddenly became curious when she heard the sound, and explained in a low voice, then turned out to take a look.

But she didn't want to. When she came back, Miao Yu shook Cheng Yan's arm frantically and asked, "Assistant Liang has a child? Cheng Yan, didn't you say she has no partner yet?"

Cheng Yan was at a loss, what child? How could Liang Chen have children

The buzzing of the machine stopped at this moment, he picked up the coffee cup, and walked out slowly, not caring that he had not answered Miao Yu's question just now.

And just when Miao Yu was about to speak again, Cheng Yan followed the box-shaped scene in the corridor and saw the child she was talking about.

At the end of the office where there were not many people, Huo Xiaoman followed Liang Chen step by step like a little duck, pulling the corner of her clothes, as if pulling Huo Sheng every time.

He was suddenly stunned at the intersection, and his mind was a little confused for a while because of exhaustion.

Miao Yu looked at him strangely, and wanted to ask what was the matter, when she saw the little guy who had been following Liang Chen, suddenly let go and ran over, bumping his head into Cheng Yan's leg.

Cheng Yan couldn't react in time, and the coffee cup in his hand was shaken violently. Seeing that the coffee was about to spill out, he raised his hand to stop it regardless of the temperature, and then let the temperature scald and hurt lightly. gas.

Huo Xiaoman, who was in front of him, didn't notice what was going on at all, so he smiled happily and shouted, "Brother Cheng Yan."

Miao Yu next to him was even more surprised. He didn't know why this child knew Cheng Yan and called him brother.

Liang Chen walked over slowly and said with a smile, "Xiaoman, how do you know brother Cheng Yan?"

Huo Xiaoman raised his head and said, "Brother, little cake."

"Little cake?" Liang Chen was still wondering.

I just listened, and before the words were finished, Miao Yu exclaimed suddenly, "Cheng Yan, give me your coffee, hurry up and make it."

The pain in Cheng Yan's hand seemed to come back to himself, he couldn't help biting his lip, and endured saying to Huo Xiaoman, "Wait for me," turned around and entered the tea room again.

The cold water hit the skin, suppressing the stinging pain on the skin, but the temperature of the coffee was really high, and the redness didn't fade after rushing for a long time.

When he came back, Huo Xiaoman was no longer in the office.

When he walked to the seat, he saw the fat man raised his eyes and asked him, "Cheng Yan, was that kid your sister?"

"No." Cheng Yan replied in a low voice, without saying much.

Fatty asked him again, "It can't be Assistant Liang's sister, she's pretty cute."

At this time, Miao Yu came out of the inner office and saw Cheng Yan and quickly asked him how his hands were.

"It's alright," Cheng Yan just replied, and then Miao Yu said again, "The minister said that you should come back and go in."

"Is something wrong?" Cheng Yan asked.

I saw Miao Yu shook her head, and then sat down with a confused look on her face.

When the fat man saw that he was back, he turned to ask Miao Yu the question just now.

Cheng Yan was silent for a few minutes, then got up and walked inside.

The office door made a soft opening and closing sound. Huo Sheng raised his eyes to see Cheng Yan, and the corner of his mouth lifted slightly, and said, "I just heard Miao Yu say that your hand is scalded, is it alright?"

"It's okay." Cheng Yan replied, feeling a little warm in his heart.

Later, while he was waiting for Huo Sheng to explain the next step, he saw Huo Sheng raise his hand and wave towards the corner of the office. This action made Cheng Yan a little strange. He didn't want to turn his head to see Huo Xiaoman dawdling to his side, and then tugged at his pants as if to ask him to squat down.

Cheng Yan squatted down according to her movements, and the little guy in front of him used his two chubby hands to pull up his scalded hand, and exhaled at the back of his hand.

Huo Xiaoman held his hand like this, with a little milky voice unique to children, and said, "Brother Cheng Yan, I'm sorry."

This made Cheng Yan stunned for a moment, and wanted to explain to Huo Sheng that this was not Xiaoman's problem, so when he heard his footsteps approaching, Huo Sheng also came over, facing the little guy who was still hanging his head. Said, "Don't be so reckless next time, rush forward regardless of walking."

"Yeah." Huo Xiaoman responded in a low voice, nodded, and breathed into Cheng Yan's hand.

Cheng Yan then smiled and said, "It's not all Xiaoman's fault, and my brother didn't stand firm either."

Huo Xiaoman nodded again after hearing this, his excitement when he first saw it was gone.

Cheng Yan wanted to comfort her again, but Huo Sheng opened his mouth first and asked Cheng Yan, "Do you have any plans for tonight?"

"No, no, is there anything I need to do?" Cheng Yan stood up and said honestly.

I saw Huo Sheng grinned at him and said, "Yes, a small task. Let's have dinner together."

At that moment, Cheng Yan felt that he was so tired that he had hallucinations, and couldn't help but ask himself in his heart, did I hear it wrong
