"After dinner, take a rest with me."
After a morning of meetings and being busy on Sunday, Huo Licheng did feel a little tired.
Cheng Cheng sat next to him obediently, thinking about the call from Xiao Ling just now. Cheng Cheng pursed his lips and said, "My cousin called me just now. She came over and invited me to dinner tonight, so I won't Let’s go back to eat, okay?”
Huo Licheng frowned slightly and thought for two seconds: "Your cousin? Xiao Ling?"
"Um!"
"Okay, I have something to do tonight, I'll ask Xiao Zhou to see you off, please be safe."
Huo Licheng took a bite of food, thought of something, and said again: "Shall I have someone book a restaurant for you?"
Cheng Cheng had not thought about where to take Xiao Ling to eat. After hearing what Huo Licheng said, of course it was the best, but the place he booked should be expensive, right
"No, the place you booked is too expensive."
These words made Master Huo successfully stop eating and looked at Cheng Cheng with a frown: "Didn't I give you the gold card?"
"That's yours."
Cheng Cheng was not hypocritical, but she had no love experience and had never thought about using Huo Licheng's money. Cheng Cheng didn't feel much about the situation of two people going to the supermarket together and Huo Licheng finally paying for it, but this kind of directness Cheng Cheng really never thought about swiping his card and using his money.
When she was with Ning Zexuan in the past, it was her money that gave to Ning Zexuan, but now it's the other way around. To be honest, Cheng Cheng is not very used to it.
Huo Licheng looked at her sincere face and couldn't laugh or cry. He knew her little thoughts and didn't necessarily have to draw any clear boundaries, but this little girl really didn't think of it.
"You can use it if it's given to you. Besides, it would be rude of me not to receive your cousin when she comes. If I don't even invite her to a meal, it would be too shameful for me to act like a brother-in-law."
Sister...brother-in-law
This familiar yet fresh term made Cheng Cheng's cheeks blush slightly. He said it so naturally.
Cheng Cheng lowered his head, ate, and ignored this person who wanted to take advantage of her anytime and anywhere.
Huo Licheng was busy all afternoon. He took a nap with Cheng Cheng for half an hour at noon, and then devoted himself to work. Cheng Cheng got off work on time and gave Xiao Ling a place to eat in advance.
When he got downstairs, Xiao Zhou was already waiting outside.
"Miss Cheng, please!"
"Thanks."
Xiao Zhou's car was parked in front of Huocheng City, and it was time to get off work, so many people saw Cheng Cheng getting into Xiao Zhou's car, and some people immediately started talking about it.
"Who said people can't show off? Look, isn't this a show off?"
"But it's strange to say that since she has climbed into the big boss's bed, why haven't she bought a car yet? I see, she is not very popular in front of the big boss."
Jiang Shan also saw this scene when she left Huocheng. Listening to the discussion of the two people walking behind her, the corners of her mouth raised slightly. No matter how Cheng Cheng was in front of Huo Licheng now, that position would be hers from now on.
She only paused for a moment before walking towards her car. What she had to do now was to recharge her batteries. She could do anything that Cheng Cheng could do.

The restaurant that Huo Licheng booked was a very chic but expensive restaurant that he took Cheng Cheng to. It had an antique design, the decoration was very high-end, and the taste was very good.
