After Qiqi arrived downstairs, Sheng Yunxia asked her, "Why did you come out?"
Qiqi found an excuse and replied: "He is working upstairs."
Sheng Yunxia didn't speak when she heard this. She was silent for a while and said, "Go and rest."
Qiqi said: "I'd better stay here with you, I'm fine anyway."
Sheng Yunxia glanced at her: "I don't need you to do anything here. You just need to give birth to this child and have a good relationship with Shao Ting. As for the rest, you don't need to pay attention to those cats and dogs. No matter how popular you are, you can't get through the door of my Huo family."
Qiqi listened to her words and didn't respond, but she didn't move either.
Sheng Yunxia stood there and sighed, saying nothing more and continuing to make incense at the table. Qiqi still insisted on making incense beside her.
That night, the two of them occupied one side of the bed. Qiqi pretended to sleep with her eyes closed, while Huo Shaoting kept flipping through the book. Qiqi didn't know when the lights went out.
She just fell asleep from exhaustion.
When Qiqi woke up in the morning the next day, she found that the person who came to take care of her was another servant. The servant who took care of her personally was missing.
Qiqi felt strange sitting by the bed, so she asked the new servant who was bringing her clothes: "Where is that person?"
The new servant heard her inquiry and immediately replied at her bedside: "The servant has resigned."
"has resigned?"
This was something Qiqi didn't expect.
Is this because he is afraid that she will raise an army to investigate?
Of course, Qiqi had no such intention, but she was a little confused. The servant who took care of her personally had rich experience in taking care of pregnant women, and generally would not be replaced easily.
She couldn't figure out one thing about this, so she asked again: "Did you say why you resigned?"
The new servant replied to her: "No."
After the new servant finished speaking, she went to the cabinet to get her a thicker sweater and jacket.
Qiqi accumulated this question in her mind for a while, and decided to ask the reason later.
After Huo Shaoting came out of Huo's house early in the morning, he followed a few well-connected business executives to play golf. They walked around and swung a club from time to time.
The people walking beside him smiled and said, "The farm project is going pretty well. I heard it is still under construction. The holiday villas were sold out as soon as they were launched."
Remote places are generally not favored by many people. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, the transportation is not convenient. However, Huo's farm project is different. As soon as the construction of the houses started and the listings were opened, all the houses were sold out.
In the relatively sluggish real estate market in recent years, few real estate projects have done so well. "
Huo Shaoting heard the words of the people around him and said quietly: "Really? I don't even know about this."
Huo Shaoting didn't pay much attention to this project. He just allocated the project to Yu Ming and let his secretary stare at it without paying any attention to it. Real estate has never been Huo's main project, it was just developed casually.
Then Director Xu said, "Isn't that right? I also went to check the manager in charge of this project, and found out that your Huo company actually hired a new person. Mr. Huo really has many capable people."
Huo Shaoting listened to these words and smiled without saying a word. He looked at the skyline in front of him as if he was thinking about something. He looked at it for a long time and said, "What, Mr. Xu, do you want to borrow someone from me?"
The man who was called Xu Dong by Huo Shaoting quickly smiled and said: "How dare I borrow this person from you? I went to check that this person is the new consort of Yuzi Bank. No wonder I said that this new person got in easily. After joining the Huo family and taking the position of manager, no wonder he is from Yuzi."
Huo Shaoting still smiled lightly and took a swing with the club in his hand. Everyone applauded and said next to him: "Wonderful."
After Huo Shaoting watched the ball gradually deviate from the hole, the expressions of those who had praised him in advance all paused. Some of them did not expect such a result.
Huo Shaoting's golf skills have always been good. Not only did he hit the hole, but he rarely missed, that's why those people dared to praise him.
But in this situation today, everyone is a little embarrassed.
Huo Shaoting was calm and didn't care about the expressions of the people around him. He only asked and answered what Director Xu said before: "It seems that you all know it."
Director Xu clearly saw that he didn't seem to be thinking much today. He didn't mention the unexpected missed shot and just said: "Who doesn't know about the relationship between Yuzi and Huo? Mr. Xu is now your brother-in-law. Although My sister-in-law a few years ago..."
When Director Xu said this, he didn't know whether he should say it or not, so he hesitated in his tone, but Huo Shaoting's expression didn't change at all and he just listened.
When Director Xu saw that his expression did not change, his hesitant words became smoother and he said: "Although your sister, Miss Huo, unfortunately died young, everyone praised this marriage, even though it was not completed. , Miss Huo passed away, but who in Jinghaicheng now doesn’t know that the Yuzi and Huo families are actually related by marriage. This is not the case with the 20th anniversary ceremony of Yuzi a few days ago. Your brother-in-law came to power. I thanked Mr. Huo again and again."
Huo Shaoting listened to these words with a smile on his lips. He handed the club in his hand to the staff on the side and said with a smile: "Dr. Xu is a very understanding person." Jinlou
Then Xu Dong laughed and said: "So how can I dare to ask for people casually? People from the Yuzi and Huo families, no matter how big my temple is, I don't dare to pretend."
Huo Shaoting chuckled and continued walking forward.
Huo Shaoting played with those people for a while and felt a little tired, so a group of people went to stay at a resting place. However, they met Lin Ang and the others halfway. Lin Ang and the others greeted him immediately after seeing him: " Shao Ting, you are here too."
Huo Shaoting said to Xu Dong beside him: "A few friends are here, so I won't accompany them for the time being."
Those people responded immediately, and after saying goodbye to each other, Huo Shaoting walked up to Lin Ang and said, "Why are you all here too?"
They are all classmates and friends.
Lin Ang said with a smile: "Aren't we here to stretch our muscles when we are bored?"
Zhang Xu, who is also a classmate, came up and said, "Why do you come all the way to see that you are not interested in playing today? You just hit one shot and you lost the club."
Huo Shaoting looked a little lonely, and he said lightly: "Let's go have a drink."
Naturally, everyone had no objections, so they went to the lounge. After arriving in the lounge, Huo Shaoting sat on the sofa and drank by himself with a glass of red wine. The look on his face was still not very good.
Lin Ang came to him and asked, "What's wrong? Are you not adapting to newlywed life?"
Huo Shaoting glanced at Lin Ang and did not answer.
Zhang Xu also came over and asked, "What is it that bothers you so much?"
Huo Shaoting leaned on the sofa with his long legs crossed. He put down the empty wine glass and said, "Nothing." Then he thought of something and asked again, "When did you become so nosy?"
