the next day.
It was Saturday, and Huo Yao didn't go to school.
In the afternoon, Song Ning's cell phone on the coffee table rang. She was sorting things in the upstairs room, but she didn't hear the call.
Huo Yao was crouching on the sofa and sending messages with someone. She stood up and looked at the phone screen. After a pause for two seconds, she suddenly raised her head again and picked up the phone instead.
The number above looks familiar.
Huo Yao glanced in the direction of the second floor, and then pressed the answer button.
The call was from Song Zhi.
Huo Yao didn't make a sound, Song Zhi over there spoke first.
He organized a banquet in the name of the Song family, and he had already invited people from the aristocratic circle to attend, and he called to talk about it.
It was agreed to the conditions proposed by Huo Yao last night.
After Song Zhi over there finished speaking, he realized that there was no sound coming from the phone, so he couldn't help taking the phone from his ear to see if he was still talking.
Seeing that it was still connected, when he opened his mouth to ask, he heard a young and cold voice coming over.
"What time?" Huo Yao asked lightly.
She was not too surprised by this call.
Judging from the fact that Song Zhi and Song Qi were going to great lengths to save Mr. Song, it was expected that they would agree to her request made last night.
It's just that this banquet is definitely not set up to apologize.
Song Zhi held the mobile phone in a daze for two seconds. He didn't expect that it would be Huo Yao who answered the phone. Soon he came back to his senses, "Seven o'clock, by the way, Yaoyao, where do you live now, or uncle will come over..."
Before I could say the word "accept you", there was a beeping sound of hanging up.
Song Zhi's words stopped abruptly, and his face was a little stiff.
Seeing this, Song Qi who was sitting opposite him had sarcasm in her eyes.
Don't you just know the president of the Medicine Association, and try to curry favor with him, and see if he still slaps you.
Song Qi frowned, but her face was as usual, "Is it done?"
Song Zhi's expression turned down, and he hummed as if nothing had happened. He put away his mobile phone and said: "The banquet tonight is very important, you control your temper."
When Song Qi heard the words, she knew that Song Zhi was still complaining about what happened to her yesterday, so she couldn't help pointing at her neck, and said mockingly: "I just said a few words yesterday, but I was stabbed by the bodyguard of the eldest sister for no reason. How dare you offend her again."
It was only then that Song Zhi realized that Song Qi's neck was injured, so he kept silent for Xiao Xu, and then said, "No matter what, the old man's illness depends on that child."
"So I don't think I should go through the night, lest I lose my temper and mess things up." Song Qi said coldly.
Song Zhi pressed the center of his eyebrows, "Don't be petty."
Song Qi snorted softly, but didn't say anything after all. All the people in the circle were invited tonight, so it was impossible for her not to go.
**
After Huo Yao hung up the phone, he thought to Xiao Xu, deleted the call history on the phone, and then put the phone back to its original place.
When Song Ning went downstairs, she had just nestled back on the sofa.
Song Ning went to the kitchen and poured a glass of warm water, returned to the living room, picked up the phone while watching.
Huo Yao looked at her and said, "By the way, Mom, my teacher has something to ask me, and I'll be going out in a while, so I won't be home for dinner."
Song Ning heard the words, but raised her head suspiciously, "I'm still looking for you on weekends?"
"Well, we made an appointment a few days ago to discuss academic issues." Huo Yao's expression was as usual, and he couldn't tell that he was lying.
Song Ning didn't doubt it, "Okay, then come back early after you're done."
Huo Yao nodded, then got up from the sofa, went back to the room to get a coat, and drove away from the villa not long after.
