Huo XIwen did not have much interest in these vague words from the attendant. She rely nodded her head and did not pursue the matter.
As for the phone number in her hand, she treated it as soone’s clumsy way to strike up a conversation. She didn’t intend to save it at all. She crumpled it up and threw it into a nearby trash can.
The next morning, Huo XIwen was still sleeping on the bed when his phone, which was placed on the bedside table, suddenly rang.
She looked at the caller ID and saw that it was a call from Huojiao. She pressed the ’Reject’ button at random, and was ready to go back to sleep with her head covered.
However, a few seconds later, her phone rang again. She was so noisy that she could only pick up the phone and feebly said, "Why are you calling so early in the morning? I’m still falling behind. I’m so sleepy. "
"You didn’t date tonight, did you?" Huojiao asked from the other end of the phone.
"What?"
"I told you last night. A blind date. "Let tell you, I didn’t tell him who you are. I only said that you were my younger sister and he didn’t know that you were the Huo Family’s eldest daughter. You should get in touch with him properly."
"Oh, got it. Just send the address, I’ll go there tonight."
"Sure, don’t be late, the man I introduced you to is not wrong." Huo Jiu saw that she agreed readily, so he didn’t say anything more. He just said a few words of warning and hung up the phone. He sent her a ssage with the eting address and ti written on it.
Putting down the phone, she turned over and fell asleep again.
She slept for a long ti and did not wake up until after four in the afternoon, during which ti Mrs. Huo knew she was going to be out of ti and did not let anyone disturb her.
When she went downstairs, she found Mrs. Howe sitting on the sofa, wearing glasses and watching a TV show with an iPad.
"Mommy." Huo XIwen walked up to his mother and wrapped his arms around her waist. He leaned his face against her back and yawned.
"I woke up from my sleep." At the sound of her daughter’s voice, Mrs. Huo put down the tablet she was pointing to and turned to look at her.
Huo Xiwen nodded, then grabbed an apple from the tea table and took two bites. "Why didn’t you go out and play mahjong today?"
"Since you’re back, of course I’ll be at ho with you. "You must be hungry. I’ll let Mother Li heat up the food and go to the restaurant to eat." said Mrs. Huo, taking the apple from her hand and putting it on the plate.
"Let Mother Li bring the dishes here, I’ll sit here and eat." Huo XIwen sat cross-legged with a carefree look on his face.
When Mrs. Huo saw this, she poked her forehead with a doting expression. "You’re really getting lazier and lazier these days."
Following that, he instructed the steward to have the kitchen prepare food.
"Oh right, don’t cook so much. I’m going out for dinner later." Huo Xiwen was afraid that she had eaten too much and wouldn’t be able to eat at night, so she said that.
"Going out to dinner? With whom? " Mrs. Huo asked curiously when she heard this.
"I don’t know either. It was a blind date arranged for by Huo Jiajia." Huo XIwen shrugged.
Hearing that, Mrs. Huo’s face was full of happiness. "Really? You’re going on a blind date tonight? "
"Yes." Huo Xiwen nodded. She could tell that her mother really wished for him to take this step.
"I really didn’t expect Huo Jiabao to know that he cares about your little sister. At least he has a bit of conscience."
"Mommy, in fact, Brother Jiabao has always been nice to . It’s also because of this reason that I can relax and hand the company over to him." Huo XIwen knew that his mother’s heart had always been a little resentful about the ti she handed over the company to Huo Jianji, so he said.
Mrs. Huo patted her hand. "I know that you siblings have a good relationship with each other. I didn’t say anything to him. What are you so anxious for?"
"Why would I be in such a hurry? I’m just worried that you might have misunderstood him." Huo Xiwen stuck out her tongue.
"Don’t worry, your mother. I’m not stupid, so I can tell who’s good and who’s bad. Your uncle is your uncle and your family’s treasure is your family’s. " As Mrs. Huo spoke, she asked curiously, "Tell , who did the family heirloom introduce to you? What did the other party do? Which family’s young master is this? "
"I don’t know." Huo XIwen shook his head.
"Don’t know?" He didn’t tell you? " Mrs. Howe frowned.
"I didn’t ask. Aiya, Mommy, the person he introduced to must be either rich or noble. What is there to be worried about? Are you afraid that he’ll cheat ?"
"I didn’t an that. I was just curious. "Alright, I’ll tell Mommy about it when you get back." As Mrs. Huo spoke, she saw the servants bringing in warm food. She imdiately called out to them. "The food has arrived. You should eat first. You must be hungry."
"Yeah, I’m so hungry. I’m going to eat first." Huo XIwen finally stopped talking and focused on eating. He quickly picked up his bowl and chopsticks, and started to eat with his head lowered.
It was probably because she hadn’t eaten her family’s food for a long ti, that she felt that it was exceptionally tasty. Just a little carelessness made her eat a little too much. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and even let out a burp.
"Aiya, it seems that I ate too much. I might not be able to eat anything else after dinner." She was sowhat distressed.
"That’s good as well. If you had that appearance just now, I would have been scared away by you." Mrs. Huo joked.
"Mommy, how can you talk about your daughter like that?" Huo XIwen bit his lips in dissatisfaction.
"Alright, hurry up and go upstairs to clean up. Dress well." Mrs. Howe said.
Huo XIwen burped again, stood up, and went upstairs to change.
Contrary to Mrs. Huo’s expectations, she did not change into a very elegant outfit. On the contrary, she wore a T-shirt and jeans she had bought at a foreign roadside stall. Although the style was very casual and casual, her figure was simply too good.
Carrying her backpack and putting on her sunglasses, she went downstairs.
Mrs. Huo was still waiting downstairs to see how she was dressed. When she saw Huo XIwen’s simple attire, her face imdiately darkened: "XIwen, are you going for a blind date or shopping? Why are you dressed so casually? "
"What’s wrong? Isn’t that good? " Huo XIwen didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with his appearance at all.
"If you are so casual, you will give others the feeling that you don’t value this date." Mrs. Howe reminded her.
"No, I think that’s good. You don’t know that young n these days like . "Alright, stop worrying. I’m going out." Huo XIwen didn’t want to hear her nagging, so he walked out as he spoke.
"I said it’s still early. Aren’t you supposed to be at 7 o’clock? It’s only five o’clock, why are you out so early? " cried Mrs. Howe, looking after her.
"I want to go for a walk in the street." He waved at her, went into the garage, got into a nanny car, and drove out.
