"Why can't she be my mother? I like her so much."
Facing his repeated inquiries, Huo Shaoting spoke forcefully: "A teacher can only be a teacher, not a mother, is that clear?"
Huo Yi's face looked a little confused, and he still couldn't tell what was inside.
Huo Shaoting didn't say much more, and the topic ended quickly.
But when Huo Shaoting's car drove to Tan Palace, as soon as the car stopped, the car lights shone on a figure.
The moment Huo Shaoting saw that person while sitting in the car, he frowned slightly.
"Aunt Yiyi! Dad!"
Huo Shaoting's car finally stopped in front of Ke Weiyi, but he did not get out of the car. Instead, he sat in the car and looked at the people standing in front of the car.
Ke Weiyi panted and looked at the people in the car. Soon, she raised her steps and walked towards the door of the car. After she stood still, she called: "Mr. Huo."
Huo Shaoting was sitting in the car and saw her approaching. He lowered the car window and looked at Ke Weiyi standing outside the door. He asked
: "Didn't you go back? Why are you here?"
Ke Weiyi replied: "Brother Shao Ting, what happened today..."
Huo Shaoting knew what she cared about, so he only whispered slightly: "I know what you want to say. The old lady is sensitive and suspicious. You don't need to care. You are Huo Yi's teacher and I respect you."
"Just a teacher?"
Ke Weiyi asked in a daze, but when she asked that sentence, she immediately realized that she had made a mistake.
She quickly regained her composure and said in a flustered tone, "I'm sorry, Mr. Huo."
Of course, Huo Shaoting also heard what she said: "Teacher Ke, we are all adults in some things. It is enough for you to teach Huo Yi well. Otherwise, I hope you will figure out the boundaries."
Ke Weiyi looked at the handsome but cold face of the man in front of her. Her hands were trembling. After a long while, she nodded and said, "I understand, Mr. Huo."
The weather was a bit cold, and there was already a layer of drizzle on Kevey's hair.
Huo Shaoting said: "Has the Huo family's car gone back?"
Ke Weiyi flinched his arms twice: "I asked the Huo family's driver to drop me off halfway."
Huo Shaoting is not an ungentleman, on the contrary, he is very gentleman.
"I'll ask the driver to take you off again."
Ke Weiyi couldn't tell whether it was disappointment or something else. She nodded with a stiff neck: "Okay, okay."
At this time, the drizzle began to turn into heavy rain, and Kevey raised his face to look at the dark sky.
Huo Shaoting also looked at the rain outside the car and thought for a while: "You should get in the car first."
A hint of joy arose in Ke Weiyi's heart: "Thank you, Brother Shao Ting."
The car door was opened, and Ke Weiyi quickly got into the car.
At that moment, a heavy rain poured down.
Huo Shaoting looked forward, not at Ke Weiyi.
The car also drove towards the gate of Tan Palace, and not long after, the car stopped in the garage.
The servants from Tan Palace came to greet him. Huo Shaoting got out of the car first, holding Huo Yiliao in his arms. After he got off the car, he turned back to Ke Weiyi in the car and said, "You go back first."
Ke Weiyi sat in the car and nodded: "Okay, thank you, Brother Shao Ting."
Huo Shaoting turned and left.
Ke Weiyi looked at the back obsessively, and the hands on his legs tightened slightly.
…
Huo Yi fell asleep on the way back from the orphanage and was not sleepy at all at night. He took Huo Shaoting from the servant's hand and said, "Dad, can you play with building blocks with me?"
Normally, Huo Shaoting would agree directly, but today Huo Shaoting's eyes fell on Huo Yi. She looked at Huo Yi for a long time and whispered: "Take him to take a bath and let him rest early."
He said this to the servant on the side, who immediately responded: "Okay, Mr. Huo."
"dad."
Huo Yi grabbed the corner of his clothes and acted coquettishly, pouting her little mouth.
Huo Shaoting glanced at the servant. The servant understood what he meant. She walked up and hugged Huo Yi.
Huo Shaoting only felt that he had a headache today. He rubbed his forehead with his hand and walked upstairs without looking at Huo Yi.
When he arrived at the bedroom, he stood at the door, in pitch black darkness, and the frown between his eyebrows became more obvious.
In his mind, he thought of her standing there in a water-red dress with a graceful posture, and Huo Shaoting smiled a bit coldly.
In four years, she has changed so much.
Catherine?
…
Huo Shaoting coughed the next morning.
The servant was preparing breakfast downstairs. When he heard the coughing upstairs, he immediately raised his face and saw that Huo Yi was being fed by the nanny.
The child had a sharp ear and was holding a spoon with grains of rice falling on it. He looked curious and said, "Daddy seems to have caught a cold!"
Listening to the coughing sound coming from upstairs, the servant realized that he really seemed to have a cold, so he said to the nanny, "I'll go up and take a look."
After the servant arrived upstairs, Huo Shaoting clenched his hands into fists and put them on his thin lips, coughing in his throat.
Someone just walked out of the room.
The servant asked with concern: "Sir, are you sick?"
Huo Shaoting glanced up, took a deep breath, calmed his chest, and whispered, "It's nothing."
Seeing that he was still wearing thin clothes, the servant added, "I'll get you some medicine."
Huo Shaoting said directly: "Make a cup of ginger tea."
The servant immediately stopped and looked up at the person in front of him.
After a while, the servant could only reply: "Okay, sir."
At this time, the car from the Huo family's old residence arrived at Tan Palace.
Huo Shaoting looked over and saw that the person getting out of the car was the housekeeper of the Huo family.
Huo Shaoting frowned, and the servants looked at him, but no one said anything.
Huo Shaoting was the first to walk downstairs. When he reached the hall downstairs, the housekeeper walked in and walked up to him: "Shao Ting."
Huo Shaoting sat down at the dining table. At this time, the housekeeper took out something and put it in front of him: "This is the photo the old lady asked me to bring over. She asked you to take a look again."
This kind of thing has not happened once or twice. Of course Huo Shaoting knows what it is. It was just discussed yesterday.
He took the photo album and flipped through the photos.
The housekeeper said: "The old lady asked if you saw anything, she would come to contact you."
Huo Shaoting closed the photo album directly, and said to the housekeeper: "I told you, there is no need to bring these things over again. I don't have any thoughts about remarrying yet, so let the old lady stop worrying about it."
When the housekeeper heard this, there was hesitation on his face.
"Are you sure you won't look at it again?"
Huo Shaoting didn't even think about it: "No."
The butler didn't want to continue talking, so he nodded.
At this time, Ke Weiyi's car arrived at Tan Palace. She happened to get out of the car and saw the scene in the hall.
She was standing next to the car.
Huo Yi, who was sitting at the dining table, saw the person coming and immediately shouted happily: "Aunt Yiyi."
Ke Weiyi immediately had a smile on her face, and she walked in quickly and said hello to the housekeeper of the Huo family.
The housekeeper also nodded politely to Ke Weiyi.
Kewei's eyes fell on the photo album on the dining table, which was full of photos of women.
