Huo Mian nodded...
Huo Siqian smiled and said, "Look, I know that sister Xiaomian is the most reliable. She can see people's hearts at critical moments."
"Brother, what do you mean by this? It's not that I don't want to keep vigil for grandma, I just feel uncomfortable...?" Huo Yanyan explained hurriedly.
"Okay, stop arguing, let's just settle it." Huo Zhenghai glanced at Huo Mian, his expression a little complicated.
after 9 p.m.
Huo Mian was the only one left in the huge mourning hall. There were wreaths on both sides, and in the middle was grandma's coffin, with her body inside.
It is said that the funeral will not take place until tomorrow, so a vigil will be kept overnight tonight.
Huo Mian was born in a medical school and had worked in a hospital for so long that she had long been numb to corpses.
Moreover, he is one of his own relatives, so he does not feel scared.
I just didn't expect Huo Yanyan to be so timid... I really couldn't count on them.
She silently lowered her head to burn the paper, and suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
"Thank you for your hard work tonight..."
That old voice was clearly that of Huo Zhenghai.
"It should be done." Huo Mian replied calmly without looking back.
"I heard that you didn't eat anything at night, so I asked someone to make a midnight snack and bring it to you later."
"I'm not hungry."
"Your mother... is she okay?" Huo Zhenghai hesitated and asked.
"Thanks to you, it's very good." Huo Mian said deliberately.
"You all have the same temperament, you are all so strong."
"Mr. Huo was joking. It's good for us to support ourselves like this. After all, no one in this world can always be relied on. Relying on yourself is the way to go."
Huo Mian's words made Huo Zhenghai feel a little invincible...
"Huo Mian, actually back then...?"
"I'm sorry, I have no interest in what happened to you back then. If nothing happens, please leave, Mr. Huo. Didn't Mr. Feng Shui say that only one person can do it?"
"Have you ever thought about... coming back?"
"In no mood."
"Do you know what you have to lose by rejecting my offer?"
"It's just inheritance rights and the like. I'm not interested. Mr. Huo, you don't have to feel guilty. After grandma passes away, I will never return to this home again."
"You kid...?" Huo Zhenghai didn't expect that Huo Mian didn't want to come back to the Huo family, and he didn't even have the slightest intention of coming back when he invited her.
From what Si Qian said, this child is now working in a hospital and is still a trainee nurse. It seems that his life is not going well.
With just one word, he could arrange for her to find a senior executive position in the Huo Group with a high salary and no need to work.
But she refused...
She is really as stubborn and willful as her mother...
Inside the Huo family villa
"Si Qian, I think you are good to that child. Do you have any private dealings?" Jiang Hong asked while holding the teacup and looking at her son.
"No, I would like to associate with her, but this girl doesn't like me very much."
"I can see that you are very protective of her. Do you have any plans?"
Huo Siqian walked up behind Jiang Hong and gave his mother a gentle pat on the back, "Mom, what do you think?"
"You don't want to help her return to our Huo family, and then stand with us and get an extra share of the stock, right?" Jiang Hong knows this son well. Although he is not his biological son, he has been raised since he was a child, so he naturally knows him. Not a loser.
"This is really a good idea, but the plan is not going well. The girl seems unwilling to come back. Maybe our Huo family shares are a temptation, but they may not be rare, and they may not be unhappy now living the life of ordinary people. "
"Really? I'll ask her later. If you want, mom will help you."
"No, Mom, you can enjoy your old age in peace and leave the fighting in the nest to me. I won't take those two idiots seriously." Huo Siqian smiled slightly.
Qin Chu's plane was supposed to take off at twelve o'clock and arrive in this city at three o'clock, but he felt it was too late, so after signing the contract there, he drove to the airport in another city, and then took another flight to come back early. , it was only eleven fifty when we got off the plane.
After getting off the plane, he went straight to his home in Royal Forest Garden. He thought Huo Mian was fast asleep, but when he opened the door, there was no one there.
Huo Mian's voice sounded. In order not to disturb her grandma's rest, she adjusted the vibration.
"What's up?"
"You didn't go home?" Qin Chu asked.
"I'm at the Huo family." Huo Mian replied calmly.
Qin Chu frowned slightly. He knew the relationship between Huo Mian and the Huo family very well. Didn't Huo Mian hate returning to the Huo family
"Grandma passed away, and I came to keep vigil." Huo Mian explained after Qin Chu didn't speak.
"My condolences." Qin Chu consoled him.
"I can."
"Are you the only one keeping vigil?" Qin Chu asked worriedly when he heard the silence on the other end.
