“Do you really want to know? I promised not to sell her out…” Mr . Qin replied mysteriously .
“It’s a she? Come on, tell me who it is!” Huo Mian said, coyishly leaning on Qin Chu’s shoulder .
“Okay then, I’ll tell you… I was enlightened by Qin Mumu,” Mr . Qin revealed the answer to her question, leaving her dumbfounded . “Little Bean?”
Qin Chu nodded .
“Honey, you’re kidding me, right?” Huo Mian asked in disbelief, so he told her his entire conversation with Little Bean .
Afterward, Huo Mian said awkwardly, “Um… I can’t believe Little Bean would sell me out and tell you something so private about me!”
“It’s good that she did, we’re not supposed to keep secrets from each other . If I find out you have been keeping secrets from me again, I won’t let you off so easy,” Qin Chu said, dotingly pinching Huo Mian’s face .
Huo Mian smiled in a brown-nosing manner . “Haha, Mr . Qin, don’t get mad at me, I’ll never keep secrets from you again . ”
“Mo Xue’er’s hospitalized at South Side, right?” Qin Chu asked .
Huo Mian picked up a bun and took a giant bite . “Mhm, I just saw her . ”
“How is she?”
“She’s fine, she was the star and director of this accident . She’s trying to frame Huo Siqian… Mo Xue’er’s pretty ruthless . Was Huo Siqian released? Is he going to cause trouble?” Huo Mian asked nonchalantly .
“Yeah, he was released . There weren’t any problems since Gao Ran said they couldn’t get enough evidence . The Huo Corporation’s stock prices evaporated quite a bit though . ”
“Okay, let’s stay away from others’ business, and fill up our own stomachs first . ” Huo Mian then went back to enjoying her midnight snack, leaning her head happily onto Qin Chu’s shoulder .
This day was exhausting, yet fulfilling, especially when she was with Qin Chu . Whenever they were together, she felt like she was the happiest person in the world .
– The next morning –
Since it was the weekend and Huo Mian had the day off, Qin Chu decided not to go to work either .
The twins wanted barbeque, so Qin Chu and Zhixin went to the supermarket that morning and bought a bunch of food and supplies .
Then, the family gathered around the yard, cooking, chatting, and laughing .
Zhixin was surprised by Bella’s sudden appearance .
“Um, why did Bella here over?”
“I called her over, is there a problem?” Huo Mian smiled .
“Not at all, Sis, you really are my sister!” Zhixin exclaimed, feeling happier than ever .
Bella brought two stuffed animals and gave one to each of the twins . “Thank you, Auntie Bella!”
“President Huo, what ingredients need to be washed? Let me help you~” Bella walked up to Huo Mian after washing her hands; she thought a lot of people were going to come, but upon arrival, she quickly realized that she was the only outsider, so she felt a little awkward .
Zhixin and Qin Chu were on the other side preparing the outdoor grill, while Yang Meirong ran around with the twins .
Therefore, Huo Mian and Bella could talk freely .
“Hey, come on, stop calling me President Huo . I don’t work at the company anymore,” Huo Mian corrected Bella, who stuck her tongue out playfully . “Then what should I call you? Dr . Huo or Director Huo?”
“Why don’t you just call me Mian?” Huo Mian chuckled .
“I can’t… I’ve been working with you for too long, you’re too authoritative for me to call Mian, haha . I’d feel really weird . ”
“Um, whatever you’re comfortable with then…” Huo Mian said helplessly .
“Okay then, President Huo . ”
Huo Mian: “…”
“Bella, that boyfriend of yours, are you still in contact with him?” Huo Mian asked probingly .
