At this moment, Mrs. Huo seemed to have realized something. She quickly said, "It"s upstairs. Come, follow me."
After saying that, he turned around and led the way upstairs.
Chen Yanzhuo carried Huo XIwen upstairs and soon arrived at her room.
As expected, Huo XIwen"s room was decorated in a cla.s.sic European style, a dreamy princess.
He gently placed her on the bed and gently covered her with the blanket before turning around to look at Mrs. Huo, "She has already slept for two hours. She will probably wake up after a while."
"I"ve already sent someone to make the Awakening Tea." Mrs. Huo nodded, then asked, "What"s your name?"
"My surname is Chen, Chen Yanzhuo." Chen Yanzhuo replied.
"Mr. Chen, let"s go down and talk." Mrs. Huo saw that he was dressed in a very refined and polite manner, and since Huo XIwen went to lunch with him, she naturally thought that he should be that mysterious boyfriend of Huo XIwen"s. She couldn"t help but want to ask him about it.
Chen Yanzhuo went downstairs with her, asking Little Du to bring in fresh grapes and red wine. "Mrs. Huo, this is the grapes that Xi Wen and I wrapped up in the winery for lunch today. Xi Wen thought it was delicious, so I let someone pick a basket. You try it, if you like it, I"ll get someone to send it over later."
"Mr. Chen, thank you for your concern. That silly girl of ours doesn"t have any other hobbies, but she likes to eat. "Gluttonous." Mrs. Huo smiled benevolently, looking at the well-mannered Chen Yanzhuo in front of her. No matter how one looked at it, she was still very satisfied.
He couldn"t help but give his daughter a big thumbs up in his heart.
"By the way, what does Mr. Chen do? How long have you known our Xiwen? " Madam Huo had finally found a chance to meet her future son-in-law. Naturally, she wasn"t going to let go of any opportunity to get to know the other party.
She didn"t care if her question was rude or not. She only knew that opportunities could be found and not sought, so she asked in one go.
"I work for the Ming Zhu group, I haven"t known Xi Wen for long, it"s only been ten days." He took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over with both hands. "Mrs. Huo, this is my business card."
Mrs. Huo took the business card, glanced at it, and nodded in satisfaction, "So the two of you have only known each other for such a short period of time. I was wondering why Xi Wen had never mentioned you, Mr. Chen. The a.s.sistant of the president of Ming Zhu Group, he never expected that at such a young age, Mr. Chen would already have achieved such a high position. One had to know that it was not easy to climb the mountain without having a strong background in such an enterprise as an a.s.sistant to the president. "I wonder what kind of business Mr. Chen"s family does?"
"Mommy …" Mrs. Huo was about to answer when Huo XIwen"s voice came from the second floor behind them.
Hearing that, Mrs. Huo immediately turned around to look at the second floor. She saw Huo XIwen rubbing her eyes as she came downstairs with a confused expression.
"Xi Wen, aren"t you sleeping? How did I wake up? " Mrs. Howe, seeing this, hurried to fetch her daughter, fearing that she might tumble down the stairs.
"Mommy, who are you talking to? How did I get back? "I remember that I"m not in the suburbs?" asked Huo XIwen as she was helped downstairs by Mrs. Huo.
When she went downstairs and reached the sofa, she looked up and saw Chen Yanzhuo sitting on the sofa, smiling at her. She immediately woke up and stared at him with wide eyes. "Why are you at my house?"
"Looks like your wine has awoken. I can feel relieved now." Chen Yanzhuo stood up from the sofa, looked at Mrs. Huo and said, "Mrs. Huo, there"s nothing else for you to do here, so I won"t bother you any longer. I"ll come pay my formal visit to you another day."
"You"re being too polite. You"re leaving just like that?" Mrs. Howe thought she had a lot of questions to ask.
"The company still has matters to take care of, I"m really sorry." Chen Yanzhuo said.
"Since business is more important, I won"t keep you any longer." Mrs. Huo nodded.
Chen Yanzhuo bid her farewell, turned around and walked out.
Seeing this, Huo XIwen immediately chased after them. As the two of them walked out of the door, Huo XIwen shouted towards his back, "Hey, wait a moment."
Chen Yanzhuo stopped and turned to look at her. "Miss Huo, is there anything else?"
"Then... That... You didn"t say anything to my mother just now, did you? " Huo XIwen asked in a small voice.
"Nonsense? What do you mean? " Chen Yanzhuo teased her deliberately.
"Then... That is … Did you say anything to her, anyway? "
"Yes, aunty seems to be really concerned about me and asked me a lot of questions." Chen Yanzhuo answered honestly.
"What did she ask you? How did you answer that? " Huo XIwen was very anxious. She was a bit worried that her mother would misunderstand that Chen Yanzhuo was her boyfriend.
"So it"s like this. She asks a lot of questions, so I can"t finish them all in one breath. When I have time, let"s sit down and talk slowly. "Now, my company still has things to do, so I won"t stay any longer. Take care, Miss Huo. I"ll see you tonight." Chen gave her a wink, then turned around and left.
Huo XIwen almost got electrocuted by those charming eyes of his just now. By the time she reacted, he was already far away.
Shaking her head, she suddenly felt that she was ridiculous.
Why was he bewitched by this man"s seductive eyes?
It was really strange.
Returning back to the house, Mrs. Huo had a servant bring the freshly brewed sobered tea up to Huo XIwen. "XIwen, how are you feeling right now? Have you sobered up? "
"I"m feeling a bit dizzy. I just need to rest for a bit." Huo XIwen took the sobering tea and took a sip, but he refused to drink anymore. He placed the bowl on the tea table, sat down on the sofa, and rested his head on the back of the sofa.
"It"s noon. What made you so happy that you drank so much?" At this time, Mrs. Huo asked indirectly.
"There"s nothing to be happy about, so I drank more of the wine." Huo Xi Wen said as he raised his hand to rub his temple. He then stood up and said, "Mummy, I think I"ll go upstairs and lie down for a while. Tell someone to wake me up at five-thirty."
"Okay, go quickly. Do you want someone to help you upstairs?" Mrs. Huo said worriedly.
"No need, I have no problems on my own." Huo Xi Wen waved his hands and walked upstairs.
Back in her room, she first washed her face. She felt much more awake, and the dizziness from before had also disappeared.
It was indeed a good wine. Even though it was slightly intoxicating, it would not cause any headaches and would wake up quickly.
Still feeling a little tired, she turned back to the bed and hid under the soft blanket, wanting to close her eyes to rest for a while longer.
"Ding." A text message notification sound suddenly came from his phone.
