huo jiajia looked at the invitation and curiously said, "the new ceo has even held a royal ball. it seems that the ming zhu group really values this new ceo." do you know the background of the other party? "

"it's our old friend, the a.s.sistant who helped fu muyun previously, zhao wei." qian jun replied.

"zhao wei?" huo jiabao laughed when he heard this name, "i thought it was someone. why would he hold a royal ball when he took office? who in the circle doesn't know him? "

"this... "i think it's because everyone knew that he was fu muyun's a.s.sistant. in order to change everyone's impression of him, he held a royal ball." qian jun said.

"speaking of which, i quite admire this zhao wei. she went from an a.s.sistant to a ceo. he was indeed a very capable person. although fu muyun was no longer here, ming zhu group was still well run by him. alright, since he's so generous with her words and readily signed the contract, we naturally have to go congratulate him. "in the evening of the day after tomorrow, arrange my itinerary so that we can go together."

"yes, ceo."

on this day, huo xiwen was waiting for fu mujun's call.

however, throughout the entire day, fu mujun did not call her, nor did he send her a message.

did he get angry because of what happened yesterday?

or was he too busy to contact her?

after daydreaming for a long time, in the evening, she finally couldn't hold it in anymore. she picked up her phone and sent a message: "are you busy?"

there was no response even after a long time. it was as if a stone had sunk into the ocean.

huo xiwen couldn't help but feel somewhat discouraged.

at that moment, a servant came upstairs and told her to go to the dining room for dinner.

although she had no appet.i.te, she still went downstairs.

as soon as he arrived at the living room, he saw huo jiu walk in from outside.

"brother jiabao, why are you here?" he was slightly surprised to see huo jiuji.

"what kind of expression is that? "don't worry, i'm not here to see you. i'm here to see aunt." huo jiu saw that huo xiwen's expression was off, and purposely said that.

"i'm not saying i don't welcome you. "coincidentally, you didn't eat, right? we were just about to start eating." huo xi wen said as he started walking towards the dining room.

huojiao followed her into the dining room.

when mrs. huo saw the arrival of the huojiao, she immediately got up from her chair. "the huijiao is here. have you eaten yet?"

"no, i just came here to get some food." he walked over to mrs. huo and sat down on the seat to his left.

huo xiwen sat opposite him. mrs. huo immediately ordered someone to get more chopsticks, and the three of them picked up their bowls and ate in silence.

after eating only two mouthfuls of rice, huo jique felt that the atmosphere at the table was unusually cold. he raised his head and looked at huo xiwen: "what's going on today? it was so quiet at the table. "who p.i.s.sed you off?"

at this moment, mrs. huo said, "this girl has been in a bad mood for the whole day. why is she in a bad mood? why isn't she saying anything?"

"did your boyfriend make you angry?" huo jiabao said.

his words immediately reminded mrs. huo, "xi wen, is it true? are you having an argument with your boyfriend? "

"mom, no, don't listen to his nonsense." huo xiwen became even more depressed after being hit by the crow's beak.

"if you aren't arguing with your boyfriend, then why are you putting on a lovelorn face?" huo jiabao purposely provoked her.

"you're the one who's been lovelorn. no, you've never been in love before." huo xi wen rolled his eyes and retorted.

huo jiu wasn't angry. looking at her fl.u.s.tered and exasperated expression, she turned to mrs. huo and said in a low voice, "aunt, i think she's probably having an argument with her boyfriend."

mrs. huo also felt that this made sense. just as she was about to inquire further, huo xiwen's phone suddenly beeped and received a message.

she quickly picked up her phone and looked at it. when she sent the text message to mu jun, she only sent him a short sentence, "i was a bit busy today, what's the matter? what's the matter? "

looking at the message, huo xiwen was instantly so happy that he was about to take off.

he said he was a little busy, which meant that he didn't mean to ignore her.

it seemed that he wasn't angry with her. she was overthinking things.

"it's nothing, i'm just casually asking. you can be busy now, i won't disturb you any longer." she quickly finished editing the text and sent it over. her lips unconsciously curled up into a smile.

"alright, i'll call you later." very quickly, another message flew over.

huo xiwen couldn't hide the joy in his heart any longer when he saw the message. the haze on his face disappeared in a flash, and was replaced with a brilliant smile.

she was staring blankly at her phone when huo jiu suddenly reached over and took her phone, "who are you chatting so happily with while eating?"

"huo jiu, return my phone to me." seeing this, huo xiwen immediately became anxious.

huo jiabao didn't even look at her phone, but just pa.s.sed it to mrs. huo, "auntie, take a look and see if she's chatting with his boyfriend."

"huo jiu, you …" huo xiwen looked at him angrily. his phone was in his mother's hands, so she couldn't do anything about it.

mrs. huo took the phone, glanced at it, then looked at huo xiwen: "xiwen, is this your boyfriend?"

"mom …" don't listen to huo jiabao's nonsense. " huo xiwen was afraid that they would keep asking, so she didn't bother to admit to it.

"xi wen, speaking of this, you haven't told us what your boyfriend does?" however, she didn't admit it. it didn't mean that huo jiabao was willing to let her go.

he had come here today specifically to understand this matter.

"what does what have to do with you? i won't tell you. " as if he had lost his temper, huo xiwen turned his head and said.

"xi wen, jiabao cares about you too, don't talk to him like that." mrs. huo could not stand it any longer, so she lectured her daughter.

"mommy, don't worry about me. i know what i'm doing. when the time is right, i'll bring him here to meet you, okay?" huo xiwen could only beg.

mrs. huo knew that if her daughter didn't want to say it, it would be bad for her if she pushed it too hard.

it was rare for her to have someone she liked now. as long as she was happy, it would be the best result.

"so mysterious. sure, if you don't want to say it, i won't bother asking." however, let me tell you, if this boyfriend of yours isn't reliable, just tell this bro that big bro still has a lot of outstanding unmarried young men's resources, you can choose whatever you want. " huo jiabao didn't press her any further at this time, and only spoke in a big brother's tone.

huo xiwen laughed when he heard this, "now that's what a big brother should say. however, don't worry, i'm afraid i won't be able to use those resources of yours. "

"it's best if he doesn't use it." huo jiu said, and continued, "oh right, i came today because i have something to tell you. the day after tomorrow, there will be a gathering for the pearl group, and they will send me an invitation. they will invite you to come with me, and if you have the time, you can come with me. "

"ming zhu group's royal ball?" huo xi wen thought for a moment. then, wouldn't he have to see that chen yanzhuo again?

thinking of him, her heart involuntarily tightened. it was a very strange feeling.

"i'll come pick you up the day after tomorrow. of course, if you want, you can also bring that mysterious boyfriend of yours." huo jiabao deliberately said at this time.
