"Okay, give me a shout if necessary."
"Um."
"By the way, are you going to attend your wife's graduation ceremony in two days?" Shen Tingxi changed the topic to a more relaxed topic.
At the mention of Shu Xin, the furrow between Huo Yanqing's brows slowly loosened, "Yeah."
"Ning Ning has also graduated. What graduation gifts do you think we should buy for them?"
Huo Yan was stunned because he had never thought about this problem, "I don't know."
"Is it possible that you planned to go there empty-handed?"
"Um."
Shen Tingxi said with some sadness: "How could Shu Xin like you, an old man who doesn't know anything about style and romance?"
Huo Yan frowned when he heard the word "old". Mu Jingping was as old as Xin'er, and he and Shen Tingxi were the same age, "Aren't you old?"
"Old man, so we need to create more sentiment and romance to make up for the shortcomings of our age. If you don't believe me, go home and ask your nephew how the couples in their school celebrated on graduation day?"
"No need to ask, Xin'er likes mature and steady men."
"I'm too lazy to tell you. If you don't prepare, I will prepare myself."
After Huo Yanqing hung up the phone, she thought for a moment before starting the car and heading back to the company.

Tingzhu Villa
In the study room, Huo Jibai was immersed in reading when he suddenly heard someone knocking on his desk. He looked up and saw Huo Yanqing standing in front of his desk. Huo Jibai subconsciously sat upright. Why did his fifth uncle suddenly arrive
Huo Jibai called out in a respectful tone, "Fifth Uncle."
"Yeah." Huo Yanqing responded, taking back the hand that was tapping the table and putting it into his trouser pocket, "How was your final exam score?"
Huo Jibai thought to himself that Uncle Wu was here to care about his studies. He had never taken exams before. His grades have been improving this semester, and his final exam scores were also very good this time.
Huo Jibai said with some pride: "Second in the entire department."
Huo Yanqing nodded, "Not bad."
Huo Yanqing rarely praised others. Huo Jibai suddenly heard him praise him. Although it was just two words of praise, it made him happier than the pile of praises from the teachers in school.
After all, Huo Jibai is still a boy of eighteen or nineteen, and he cannot be as moody as Huo Yanqing. A charming smile appeared on his face, "I will work harder."
"Yeah." Huo Yanqing raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who is the first place?"
The smile on Huo Jibai's lips froze, and his expression immediately became depressed, "Shu Xin."
Huo Jibai was a little unconvinced when he mentioned this. Shu Xin obviously never went to school, but only showed up during exams, but her final exam scores were still better than his. It was unreasonable!
A smile appeared in Huo Yanqing's deep eyes, and the proud and doting look on her eyebrows was undisguised.
I came second in the exam, and you looked calm. Shu Xin came first in the exam, and you are so happy. Uncle Wu, your mind is too far gone.
Huo Jibai was cursing in his heart when Huo Yanqing said, "Remember to call me aunt from now on."
Huo Jibai lowered his head and said nothing.
When Huo Yanqing saw that Huo Jibai was silent, the smile on his brow disappeared and his eyes darkened slightly.
Shu Xin and Huo Jibai were classmates, which made him feel like he was eating young grass. He had to change his name to Huo Jibai and call him aunt. At least, Shu Xin and he were of the same generation. Listening to that, he would feel much more comfortable.
He spoke coldly, "Didn't you hear?"
Even if Huo Jibai was unhappy, he didn't dare to contradict Huo Yanqing, "I heard you."
