Chapter 1088: Talk Heart-to-heart With Your Cousin
Translator: Yunyi
Huo Tian didn’t understand why Song Yaoyao wanted to bring her to a social event, but she could see that every single one of the employees looked at Song Yaoyao with absolute admiration and trust.
A 20-year-old girl was leading a large group of employees. Among these people, there was no lack of people older than Song Yaoyao, but no one underestimated her because of her age.
This was a side of her that Huo Tian had never seen before. Before this, Song Yaoyao’s image in her heart was similar to that of a troublemaker.
Other than acting cute and seducing her uncle, she didn’t do anything serious at all. Only now did she realize that everything was caused by her preconceived prejudice. Other than being with her uncle, Song Yaoyao also had her own business to run.
And she was very busy.
“What are you daydreaming about? Let’s go back.” Song Yayaoo stood by the roadside, the wind caressing her hair. Under the dusk, it was like a scene from a comic, so beautiful that it made one’s heart palpitate.
“I…” Being caught by Song Yaoyao, Huo Tian’s face was slightly hot, and she stuttered, not knowing how to explain. At this moment, her phone suddenly rang, and she let out a long sigh. “I, I need to take a call!”
She gripped her phone and looked at Song Yaoyao eagerly, waiting for her approval.
She probably didn’t even notice that she was already used to listening to Song Yaoyao’s words. In the past, this was something completely unimaginable.
“Go.” Song Yaoyao nodded.
Two minutes later, Huo Tian pursed her lips and walked back in silence.
Song Yaoyao bent down and got into the car. She turned her head to look out the window, but Huo Tian was still standing in place.
“What’s wrong?”
“I… Can I leave for a while? A friend is looking for me.” Huo Tian was a little nervous. Especially when she looked at Song Yaoyao’s clear eyes, her heart beat even faster.
Song Yaoyao didn’t say anything and just looked at her indifferently.
Huo Tian almost said, “Forget about it…”
“Go.”
But one word made Huo Tian heave a sigh of relief.
The car quickly left with Song Yaoyao in it. Huo Tian stood where she was and watched the car disappear into the traffic. When she thought of the phone call, she felt a little irritated. The joy and happiness she had before was gone.
In the car. “Miss Song, do you want to send someone to follow her?” Huo Si asked in a low voice.
Huo Si was born with a loud voice. But under Huo Jiu’s repeated warnings, he learned to control his voice a little.
“You just need to speak normally.” Song Yaoyao shook her head. “There’s no need. She’s neither my daughter nor a criminal. She has the freedom to choose where she wants to go.”
She did not like to meddle in other people’s business, even though Huo Tian’s expression did not look right.
“Get someone to pay attention. Just make sure nothing happens to her.”
Huo Si replied happily, thinking that he had to tell Huo Jiu later. Miss Song did not care about his loud voice at all. It seemed that he was not the only one who was not used to his suppressed voice; Song Yaoyao was not used to it either.
…
Huo Tian pushed open the door of the private room and walked in. The cold air blew into her face, making her shudder for some reason.
“Tian Tian, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
Seeing her enter, the woman went up to her affectionately and gave her a hug. She gently patted her back, “Why didn’t you say anything and return to the country alone?” she scolded. “You don’t know how worried I was. Besides, your mother found out that you ran away from school. She called me, so I could only hide it for you and tell her that you’re with me.”
Huo Tian’s eyes flashed. “Really?” Why would she care about her?
That’s right, this person was Dai Shiqing.
She was wearing a simple white dress with a wide hem. There were some folds around her waist, which made her waist even more slender and feminine.
“That’s right, Tian Tian. What’s wrong with you? Did I do something wrong and offend our Young Miss?” Dai Shiqing smiled lightly as she held Huo Tian and sat down. “If there’s anything that I didn’t notice, just say it. I’ve watched you grow up. You don’t want our relationship to be estranged, right?”
Huo Tian nodded.
Dai Shiqing stuffed a gift into Huo Tian’s hands, “This is the necklace that you took a fancy to before. Didn’t your mother say that she wasn’t willing to buy it for you? Here, I’ve been keeping an eye on it. As soon as it arrived, I immediately bought it for you. Look at you. You haven’t been answering my calls during this period of time. You’ve been worrying me to death. As soon as I was done with work, I immediately flew back to China to look for you!”
“So, you’re not angry anymore, right? I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Dai Shiqing clasped her hands together and looked into Huo Tian’s eyes sincerely.
Huo Tian pursed her lips. “I know. I’m not blaming you.” She was just very disappointed.
But for some reason, Huo Tian did not want to tell Dai Shiqing about this. She even felt a little regretful. If she had known earlier, she would have gone back with Song Yaoyao.
She had not applied any ice on her wound that night yet, and she did not know if her uncle was at home. Was Song Yaoyao going to let Brother Ningxi treat it for her?
Huo Tian fell into a trance as soon as she thought about this. Meanwhile, Dai Shiqing’s eyes flashed with emotion, and it disappeared in an instant.
“So, tell me, how have you been in China recently? I just found out that you’ve participated in a program. What happened?” She showed just the right amount of concern and waited quietly for Huo Tian’s answer.
At the same time, some food and drinks were served. “Have something to eat?”
“I’ve already eaten.” Huo Tian shook her head.
After that, Huo Tian realized that Dai Shiqing must have noticed that she didn’t like her mentioning Huo Yunque all the time. She had been here for so long, and she hadn’t even mentioned the Huos once. However, she started to ask about Song Yaoyao and her relationship with Song Yaoyao, whether intentionally or not.
Huo Tian lowered her eyes and looked at the lemon slices in her drink. She said calmly, “…that’s all.”
“Really?” Dai Shiqing was surprised and said as if she didn’t mean it, “I thought she would sign you to her studio. By the way, she works in the entertainment industry, right?”
“How do you know?” Huo Tian suddenly raised her head and looked at Dai Shiqing.
“I…” Dai Shiqing smiled, “It’s easy to guess this kind of thing. Don’t forget, I treat Song Yaoyao as my love rival. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle! Don’t you know this? Tian Tian, I won’t harm you. Are you still blaming me for neglecting you when I was busy with work?”
Huo Tian frowned and reluctantly accepted this explanation.
She said, “Cousin, have you ever thought about liking someone else? I’ve been back to the old residence the past two days and discovered that my uncle really doesn’t have eyes for other women. Even I, in his eyes, can’t compare to a single strand of Song Yaoyao’s hair. Furthermore, they’re already engaged. If you want to be together with my uncle, won’t that make you a mistress?”
“You…”
Dai Shiqing’s smile faded and she almost couldn’t keep up her act. “Tian Tian, what’s wrong with you? Weren’t you the one who supported me being with your uncle the most previously? Or did Song Yaoyao say something to you?”
