Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 740: I Can’t Just Secretly Run Away with You

A voice ca from the office: "Co in."

Before Huo Jingrui could push the door, soone inside had already opened it: "Comrade, who are you looking for?"

Huo Jingrui glanced inside, just as Xiao Yuanshan looked over.

Seeing the visitor, Xiao Yuanshan imdiately stood up from behind the desk: "Brother Huo, what brings you here?"

As they got closer, he noticed Yunyi standing behind Huo Jingrui: "Ah, is this your wife?"

Huo Jingrui introduced them with a smile: "Yunyi, this is my brother Xiao, Guo Qiming’s cousin-in-law. You can call him Brother Xiao."

Yunyi nodded at Xiao Yuanshan: "Hello, Brother Xiao."

Huo Jingrui then continued with the introduction: "This is my fiancée, Chuyunyi."

Xiao Yuanshan had heard Huo Jingrui ntion Yunyi before: "Hello, hello, I’ve heard Brother Huo talk about you, truly a perfect match."

As he spoke, he pointed to the adjacent room: "Co, let’s talk over here."

The office was crowded and chaotic, and the smoke-filled environnt wasn’t suitable for hosting guests.

Once inside the small eting room, Xiao Yuanshan fetched so cups from below and poured them water: "Have so water."

Huo Jingrui took the cup: "Brother Xiao, we’re here to ask for a favor."

Xiao Yuanshan laughed heartily: "Go ahead."

Huo Jingrui lowered his voice: "We want to buy so Maotai liquor. But there’s a ration and quota requirent, I wondered if you had any connections?"

Xiao Yuanshan thought for a mont: "How much do you need?"

Huo Jingrui looked at Yunyi, receiving her subtle signal, feeling sowhat embarrassed: "It depends on your situation."

Xiao Yuanshan understood his aning: "Wait for a mont."

Then he turned and went into the next office.

After a while, he returned with a slip: "A shipnt arrived today, but not much stock. I reserved three boxes for ergencies, and you can take the remaining three, I’ll get a few more boxes for you later."

Huo Jingrui replied: "Thank you very much."

After exchanging so pleasantries, Xiao Yuanshan accompanied them to the finance departnt to settle the paynt, then directed Huo Jingrui to drive the car to the back door.

Xiao Yuanshan personally helped load the three boxes of Maotai liquor onto the car: "Brother Huo, when the next batch arrives, I’ll call you."

Huo Jingrui nodded: "Alright."

As they left the departnt store, Yunyi glanced at Huo Jingrui but quickly looked away.

Huo Jingrui could easily guess her thoughts: "Are you wondering why I didn’t ntion our upcoming wedding feast?"

Yunyi nodded slightly: "We’ve asked for help today, surely they’ll hear from Qiming later."

Huo Jingrui turned the car out of the alley: "If not for Qiming, I wouldn’t know Brother Xiao. I wanted to ntion the wedding, but we’re soon moving away; eting again may be difficult."

Yunyi instantly understood his reasoning; they’ll be leaving Zeyang County soon, and ntioning it would obligate them to give a wedding gift, which wouldn’t be appropriate.

Huo Jingrui saw she understood: "Next ti we co to pick up the liquor, I’ll treat him to a nice al."

As they chatted, the car left the town.

Huo Jingrui cleared his throat: "I plan to go back to Beijing soon."

Yunyi turned to look at him: "Is sothing up?"

Huo Jingrui gently said: "You’ve been acquainted with the Ye Family; I can’t just whisk you away quietly, it’s better to visit personally."
