Chapter 175: Small Talk
As time passed, the moonlight gradually peeked out of the layer, and Mu Qingqing's soup was almost done, so she carefully took the soup aside, and reached out to wipe the fine sweat on her forehead.
At this moment, Father Mu's voice came from the living room: "Don't you really need to help?"
In this regard, Mu Qingqing sighed helplessly, and then turned his head and walked to the door of the kitchen, and said with a smile: "No, Dad, you can go and rest for a while." ”
After saying that, she waved at him, and then for fear that he would insist on coming in to help, Mu Qingqing walked to the kitchen door, closed the door, and returned to cooking.
There are too many things to worry about lately, and she is already very satisfied if she can put aside everything and cook a good meal for those who are worried about her.
Seeing her close the door, Father Mu had no choice but to sigh lightly, and then returned to the living room to sit on the sofa, watching TV absentmindedly.
From his contemplative eyes, it could be seen that he seemed to be thinking a little bit about something, until he was awakened by the ringtone of his mobile phone, and then he hurriedly picked it up, and he didn't have time to see whose phone it was, but hurriedly responded: "Hey?"
"Good evening. Huo Haoran leaned lazily on his car, his eyes looked directly at the Mu family with warm lights in front of him, and the coldness between his eyebrows finally eased unconsciously.
Listening to his familiar voice, Father Mu was a little surprised, and he didn't understand why he called him so late: "Well, good evening, what's wrong?"
Recently, because of the company's affairs, Mu's father instinctively thought that Huo Haoran had called him because something had happened, so he couldn't help but be a little worried.
Therefore, as he spoke, he also lowered his voice and turned his back to the kitchen, for fear that Mu Qingqing, who was cooking, would be worried when he heard it.
"It's okay, just wanted to come and talk to you, are you free now. Hearing the worry, Huo Haoran softened his tone a little and spoke his mind.
Hearing this, Father Mu couldn't help but feel his heart fall, and then he raised a smile: "If you are free, come here, just have dinner with us." ”
"Okay......" Hearing that Mu Qingqing hadn't eaten dinner so late, Huo Haoran frowned slightly, but he couldn't say anything to Father Mu, so he responded.
Then, after hanging up the phone, he parked the car directly, carried a delicate gift bag and walked inside.
Father Mu still thought that Huo Haoran would arrive for a while, and was about to get up and go to the kitchen to ask Mu Qingqing to stop and wait for him, but unexpectedly, he was embarrassed to get up, Huo Haoran was carrying the bag and standing behind him with a polite smile.
"Look at you, you didn't come in directly when you arrived early, and you had to make a special phone call, which was too rusty!" Father Mu slightly suppressed his startled heart, and pretended to stare at him with displeasure.
Seeing this, Huo Haoran also cooperated with an apologetic smile, handed the gift bag in his hand to Father Mu and said, "I just don't want to surprise you, so I will say hello first, this is my gift to you, please see if you like it." ”
When Father Mu, who deliberately said a few words, heard this, seeing that he actually brought him a gift, he didn't say anything polite to him, so he happily took the bag and opened it to see.
When the gift box was opened, several tea sets that exuded a warm luster were displayed in front of Father Mu, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then his eyes lit up.
"This is the best grade, it must have cost you. Father Mu carefully stroked the high-quality tea set given to him by Huo Haoran, and his eyes were obviously full of excitement.
Seeing that he had chosen the right gift, Huo Haoran also tugged at the corners of his lips, glanced around the room and didn't see Mu Qingqing, so he said, "Is she still working overtime?"
Hearing this, Father Mu only then accepted his excited face, and looked at the kitchen with a light voice: "No, no, cooking in the kitchen, you don't want me to help......"
Father Mu seemed to be a little helpless after speaking, paused, and then looked at Huo Haoran: "It should be almost good, you can sit down and rest for a while, just so we can talk." ”
After that, Father Mu carefully put the tea set he gave in the cabinet, and led Huo Haoran to the sofa to sit down, however, just as Huo Haoran had just sat down and was about to say something to him, Father Mu suddenly got up and left quickly.
For a while, I saw Father Mu walk to the cabinet again, take the tea set that Huo Haoran gave him in his hand, and look at him a little embarrassed when he walked over: "Hmm...... I still have some itchy hands, you sit down by yourself first, I'll wash the tea set and make tea. ”
"Hmm. Huo Haoran nodded understandingly, and then, seeing Father Mu walking away, he turned his eyes to the kitchen, and saw the busy and petite figure inside, with a slight smile in his eyes.
He's been here for so long, and she hasn't noticed him yet.
Thinking of this, Huo Haoran only deepened the smile in his eyes, and he didn't intend to disturb her now.
It didn't take long for Father Mu to wash the tea set, return to him with the mellow tea, pour two cups on the table, and after picking up one cup himself, he pushed the other cup in front of him, looked at him and smiled: "Drink." ”
"Do you have any thoughts on recent events? Seeing Huo Haoran take a sip of tea, Father Mu asked him with a serious face.
Shaking his head, he put the teacup on the table, guessing that he was worried about recent events, so he smiled soothingly, "Everything will pass, and everything will be revealed." ”
"Recently, the company's shares have fallen sharply, and other companies will definitely take advantage of the situation and jointly deal with us!" Hearing this, Father Mu was a little calmer, but he became more worried for a while.
In this regard, Huo Haoran still smiled indifferently: "So, during this period, don't worry too much, take a good rest, and formulate better coping strategies......"
Just as he was talking about the general, Mu Qingqing's sudden voice interrupted his words, and also interrupted the conversation between the two of them, who were just about to get to the point.
"The meal is ready, let's go, let's go over and eat first. Seeing this, Father Mu took the lead in speaking, and after speaking, he looked at Mu Qingqing again: "Let's go and prepare a pair of dishes and chopsticks." ”
Hearing this, Mu Qingqing came back to his senses a little, hurriedly returned to the kitchen, took another pair of dishes and chopsticks and put them in front of Huo Haoran, and sat down next to him.
"Why did you come here suddenly?" Thinking that he had been here for a long time, but he didn't notice his arrival, Mu Qingqing's eyes were slightly embarrassed, but he still asked in confusion at the moment.
In this regard, Huo Haoran only hooked the corners of his lips slightly, and picked up the chopsticks: "No suddenly, I called." ”
Mu Qingqing was about to open his mouth to refute, but after seeing his father's appearance that he had no objections, he immediately fell silent and ate silently.
Obviously, he had guessed that Huo Haoran had informed her father.
