Chapter 770: Good Brothers Fighting Passionately

It was all thanks to Huo Qiuguang’s arrangements. Although Huo Ya didn’t have much talent, she was under the finance department and she occupied a position.
This also made her movements today more convenient.
Thinking of the purpose of her trip, Huo Ya took a deep breath and walked towards the route she had memorized.
It was nighttime now. Although many employees of the Huo Corporation were working overtime, they were all busy with their own work, so not many people paid attention to the changes in their surroundings.
Therefore, Huo Ya easily passed through the area filled with employees and headed straight for the accounting office.
The accounting office at night was locked. Fortunately, she had seen the password with her father in the past, so Huo Ya entered very smoothly.
[It’s just a small favor. As long as you help me…] Recalling the message the other party had sent her, Huo Ya took a deep breath.
When the two employees standing beside the coffee machine saw Huo Ya turn around and disappear, they didn’t pay much attention to her.
They chatted casually and were about to return to work when they turned around and saw Huo Qiuguang behind the two of them.
“G-General Manager!”
The employee was so frightened that he almost spilled the coffee in his hand. Fortunately, his ability to adapt at the last minute was relatively fast. In the end, he didn’t embarrass himself in front of Huo Qiuguang.
Huo Qiuguang glanced at the two employees. “It’s fine. I’m here to take a look. He usually had a serious image in the eyes of the employees, so after saying that, he walked in without looking at the two of them.
Although he looked calm, Huo Qiuguang had actually only recently learned that Huo Xiuyuan had returned to the country.
Huo Xiuyuan didn’t make a scene when he returned to the country this time, but he didn’t hide his tracks either. As long as anyone paid attention, they would notice.
Huo Qiuguang was naturally one of them. However, the problem was that he didn’t know that the other party would return to the country at all. He didn t even know anything.
Therefore, after knowing that Huo Xiuyuan had returned, Huo Qiuguang had been feeling a little uneasy recently. He couldn’t sleep well, so he simply gave up on going home tonight and came to the Huo Corporation at the last minute to take a look.
The finance department was a place that Huo Qiuguang was even more familiar with than his family.
He walked in along the path and happened to see a person who almost shouldn’t appear here.
Huo Ya?
Seeing his daughter walking towards him with her head lowered, Huo Qiuguang immediately frowned.
Huo Ya was feeling flustered after finishing her work and planned to walk ahead without looking at anyone. In the end, her heart skipped a beat when she saw the very familiar leather shoes.
Fortunately, her reaction was faster than the panic on her face. She smiled and called out, ’Dad’.
“What are you doing here?” Huo Qiuguang looked at his daughter.
Usually, she could hardly be seen in the company even once a month, but she appeared here at night.
Huo Ya opened her mouth. “I…”
“Forget it.” Huo Qiuguang couldn’t be bothered to listen to his daughter say this. He waved his hand impatiently. “Go home early. Don’t let your mother worry.”
“Alright.” Huo Ya nodded and hurriedly walked around to leave.
The moment she bumped into her father just now, her heart was almost in her throat.
Fortunately, she was fine…
Huo Ya took the elevator to the first floor and slowly heaved a sigh of relief.
When she went out, it was already 10 p.m.
The traffic on both sides of the road had decreased a little. Even though it was still prosperous, it was gradually approaching the beginning of night life. However, this prosperity and busyness didn’t affect the people roasting in the backyard of the Murong Residence at all.
“I’m planning to write a new song recently…” Xian Yu shared his recent life as he ate.
Murong Chuan was a suitable listener. Although he was not allowed to help with the cooking, he didn’t feel tired at all from the flipping of the barbecue.
As he listened to Xian Yu talk about his new song and concepts, Murong Zheng occasionally opened his mouth.
“For someone that couldn’t even sing in tune when young, you’re working so hard now as a grown up?”
Although he rarely spoke, every time, Murong Zheng could hit Xian Yu’s sore spot.
Xian Yu’s face turned red and he immediately shouted guiltily, “Nonsense! My vocal teacher even praised me when I was young!”
“It’s a white lie.”
“Someone was even frightened by the frogs that were still moving after the dissection!”
“That’s a normal residual neurological reaction.
“Oh—”
Hearing the exchange of blows beside her, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but laugh.
However, while she was still smiling, another string of mushrooms appeared in her hand.
Murong Qiao turned around and saw Huo Yichen grilling a skewer seriously.
“It’s not too spicy. Try it.”
Sensing Murong Qiao’s gaze, Huo Yichen flipped the skewers in his hand without changing his expression, so that the ingredients on them were evenly heated.
It had to be said that good-looking people could really do whatever they wanted sometimes.
Even though he was the barbecue boss and had a smoky aura, when it matched Huo Yichen’s face, even the food that had yet to be eaten seemed to have a layer of delicious filter.
The meat was skewered on an iron skewer. Under the roasting of the charcoal, it gradually emitted a ripe fragrance. With a little cumin and other seasoning, it was enough to stimulate one’s sense of smell and make one’s appetite increase. While the mushroom in her hand was still warm, Murong Qiao bit off a piece without hesitation.
The mushroom was the size that could be eaten now. One could taste the slightly overcooked juice inside with a bite.
Unlike the usual strong taste of mushrooms, the fragrance of the mushrooms today had a different kind of cloying taste from the barbecue. Coupled with the fact that the mushrooms were slightly soft and tasted like meat, Murong Qiao liked it very much.
“Master Huo’s culinary skills are so good,” Murong Qiao praised unreservedly.
Huo Yichen agreed indifferently, looking like he enjoyed it.
Yan Xiu sat at the side and watched his Little Sister and Huo Yichen’s interaction. He acted as if he didn’t feel that he was a third wheel and ate happily.
As for An Nuo, she was currently being fed by Murong Chen.
“This is not bad. You can try it, but you have to eat it while it’s hot.” Murong Chen picked up a piece of meat that had just been roasted and gave it to An Nuo. He didn’t forget to add some dipping sauce.
An Nuo accepted the other party’s kindness, feeling flattered.
In fact, Murong Chen was also a little helpless. Among the few people present, not to mention his Little Sister and Huo Yichen, Murong Zheng and Murong Chuan were chatting together, and Yan Xiu was completely offline. Xian Yu was making a fuss himself, let alone taking care of others.
In the end, Murong Chen was the one who took care of the guest.
After all, it was not good to let An Nuo eat alone. How could that be befitting of like the host?
“Then, you eat too. Don’t just focus on me.” An Nuo mustered her courage and picked up a piece for Murong Chen.
After picking up the food, she picked up the beverage beside her as if to hide her discomfort. She placed it to her mouth and took a sip.
But…
Murong Chen looked at the can in the other party’s hand. It was obviously his drink. After hesitating for a long time, he held it in and didn’t say anything.
According to An Nuo’s personality, if he really said it, she would probably lose her hard-earned relaxation.
An Nuo didn’t notice it at all. She even felt that this peach-flavored fruit wine was not bad and drank a few more mouthfuls..
