“Fine, I promise you . ”
Huo Suicheng took out his cell phone, made a call, and then got up, “I will wait for you at the company tomorrow . I have work to do, so I’ll leave first . ”
“Wait, what’s the child’s name?”
Huo Suicheng was stunned before casually speaking a name, “Huo Xiaoxiao . ”
The child is smart and cute . Father should like her .

Royal Orchid Villa .
After drinking milk and changing diapers, Huo Xiaoxiao, who was tired after playing games with the nanny, slept for a while and woke up to find herself in a different place .
“So well-behaved . Is this my granddaughter?”
Huo Xiaoxiao batted her eyes upon seeing a kind old man just around the corner .

“She smiled at me as soon as she woke up . ”
“Little Young Miss is your granddaughter, so of course, she wants to smile at you . You can see how lovely Little Young Miss is . Her small nose and eyes are exactly the same as those of the Young Master . ”
“That brat was very noisy when he was a child . How could he be as cute as my granddaughter?” Old Master Huo coaxed the child, and his eyes showed all his love . “Look at this child; how lovely she is! She doesn’t cry or make noise . By the way, have you washed the baby’s milk bottle yet?”
Huo Xiaoxiao was stunned .
Grandpa?
When did the surroundings change?
A’Xiao’s worried voice sounded at this moment, “Huo Suicheng will be able to completely control the company tomorrow . Without Old Master Huo’s suppression, he will show his fangs very soon…”
“I can’t help it,” said Huo Xiaoxiao with both hands .
“Don’t worry . I have a way, but I’ll have to trouble you . ”
“?”

Dusk .
At the banquet, Huo Suicheng stood quietly in the crowd with a glass in his hand, listening to the compliments around him . The eyes of beautiful women with all kinds of perfumes focused on him .
He didn’t like such occasions, but he was in a cheerful mood today and could still bear it .
“President Huo . ” A man approached Huo Suicheng and clinked their glasses . “I heard that your company has won the Nan city project . Congratulations . ”
“Thank you . ”
“My company also has a project that I believe President Huo will be very interested in . We’ll discuss it when we have a chance to talk, but I hope President Huo can keep the project confidential . ”
Huo Suicheng held his business card and took a sip of wine .
Huo Suicheng never regretted anything he had done . His father’s ideals were not suitable for this era . Everything he had done was for the sake of the company .
Swallowing red wine, his body temperature rose, the mood becoming inexplicable and impetuous . He put down the glass and went to the reception to clear his mind .

Behind the terrace was a spacious garden, in which there were various kinds of flowers . The breeze brought all kinds of fragrance to his nose .
Today was rare beautiful weather, full of stars like the Milky Way .
It was a good place to be alone .
At this moment, footsteps resounded in the vicinity, and Huo Suicheng looked inside . In the garden, a girl in a red dress with bare shoulders was walking barefoot on the gravel road with high heels .
She looked like someone who was not afraid of worldly affairs . She was lively and witty, shuttling among flowers and occasionally lowering her head to smell the blooming flowers .
Even in the dim light, the red dress attracted attention against the gray backdrop .
The green grass and the colorful flowers were overshadowed by her presence .
Huo Suicheng’s eyes narrowed slightly . He only felt that the red dress was amazing . Looking around, only the touch of red remained in his eyes .
He stood there, quietly watching without disturbing her .
The phone rang and broke the peace .
It was his father who called . Huo Suicheng answered the phone .
The old man’s voice on the phone was serious and anxious . “Suicheng, where are you now? Xiaoxiao has a fever! Come back quickly!”
Fever?
Huo Suicheng’s mind was filled with the palm-sized chubby child and her sweet-smelling milk .
He wanted to say if she was ill, send her to the hospital, but the words remained on the tip of his tongue, and he swallowed them for no reason . Suddenly, the scene of a child crying and making noise came to his mind .
No longer interested in staying here, he whispered, glanced at the girl in the garden, and turned away .
The sound of opening the door rang in the garden .
Hearing the sound, the girl looked back .
The place where Huo Suicheng originally stood was empty .
She suddenly stood up and looked around the garden, but there was no one but her .
