Huo Huaien stayed in the front yard for a while. She felt that she was out of place with this group of people, so she decided to return to the Fourth Brother's courtyard.

Auntie made her a cup of coffee.

She sat alone at the coffee table, lost in thought.

Not long after, someone walked in from the door.

She looked over and saw Mo Xinian, who was tall and handsome.

Her heart tightened as she stood up and looked at Mo Xinian. She said with a panicked voice, "Brother Xinian ??"

Mo Xinian walked in front of her.

"Did I say that if you live under my nose, you must follow my rules? Who allowed you to leave without saying a word? "

Huo Huaien lowered her eyes in silence.

Mo Xinian frowned and said, "Don't think that just because you are Tingshen's sister, I will accommodate you. This matter can only happen this once, and it won't happen again."

He turned to go.

Huo Huaien immediately said, "Brother Xinian, please wait."

Mo Xinian stopped.

Huo Huaien walked in front of him. "This time, you didn't come back with my third brother ??" Say what. "

"What do you think I can say?"

Huo Huaien clasped her hands together and lowered her head uneasily. "What happened that night ??" You didn't mention anything to my third brother, right? "

Mo Xinian's heart softened for a moment when he saw the pitiful look on Ye Zichen's face.

But very quickly, he recalled her willfulness and boldness from that day.

He harrumphed, "You still dare to bring up that night's matter?"

Huo Huaien shrunk her neck in guilt and said with a hint of cowardice, "I ??" "I ??"

"Tomorrow morning, I will send someone to pick you up. If you don't want to leave, you should tell your third brother as soon as possible. It will save me the trouble."

After Mo Xinian finished speaking, he left her side in big strides.

After walking a distance, although he did not look back, he slightly shifted his line of sight back a bit.

Of course, he couldn't see Huo Huaien's current appearance.

Huo Huaien closed her eyes and sighed.

He thought that once he returned to the United States, he would be able to forget the past and relax a little.

However, there were no such things. So it turned out that the worries of humans could not be cast away no matter where one went.

In the evening, the entire Huo Family family sat together and ate a round meal together.

Huo Huaien was happy to see her third brother and Fourth Brother being accompanied by their respective lovers and children. Their faces were brimming with happiness.

He had wanted to ask his third brother to let him stay in China, but he couldn't.

Right now, if she stayed in China, she would be a burden to Third Brother and Fourth Brother.

The next morning, Mo Xinian sent his personal assistant, Yun Luo, to pick her up.

On the way to the airport, Yun Luo greeted Huo Huaien respectfully, "Miss Huaien, are you feeling better?"

Yun Luo had worked with Mo Xinian for seven years and was his most trusted assistant.

Yun Luo was also one of the people who knew about what had happened that night.

Huo Huaien didn't know how to reply, so she just smiled.

Third sister had taught her that when she was embarrassed and didn't want to talk, smiling was the best response.

There was no need to refuse.

"This time, President Mo came to pick you up. He gave you three very important meetings and specially flew back from the United States."

Huo Huaien was a little surprised. "He ??" Didn't you come back to work? "

Yun Luo smiled, "That's not it, the focus of President Mo's work is in the United States. Coming back to pick you up is the most important thing."

Hearing this, Huo Huaien had an indescribable feeling in her heart.

When she arrived at the airport and entered the VIP waiting area, Huo Huaien saw Mo Xinian, who was looking at his computer.

She stopped. Yun Luo walked over first, respectfully bowed next to Mo Xinian, and said in a low voice: "President Mo, Miss Huaien is here."

Mo Xinian raised his eyes and looked at her. With a dignified and domineering voice, he said, "Come here."

Huo Huaien slowly walked over.

Mo Xinian said again: "What, this chair has needles? Can't sit down? "

Huo Huaien said in a low voice. She sat down, put down her bag and looked at his computer screen.

He's in the office.

Yun Luo smiled at her and said a few words to the waiter before leaving first.

After Mo Xinian finished dealing with a document, he casually touched his coffee cup and held Huo Huaien's hand, who was going to give him the cup.

The moment they crossed hands, Mo Xinian immediately let go and looked back at her.

She smirked awkwardly, "Brother Xinian, have some coffee."

Mo Xinian took the coffee cup. Huo Huaien quickly retracted her hand and used her other hand to gently rub the spot where Mo Xinian had held the cup.

"Brother Xinian."

Mo Xinian put down his coffee cup. His gaze was still lingering on the computer as he said, "Speak."

"I'm sorry."

Mo Xinian turned around and gave her a blow: "Sorry about what?"

"I heard that you delayed your work and specifically came back to pick me up."

Mo Xinian snorted and didn't say anything.

Huo Huaien knew that he was too lazy to acknowledge her.

The flight back to the United States was not a short one, but Huo Huaien had slept almost all the way to avoid embarrassment.

It was already evening by the time he got off the plane.

The chauffeur directly brought the two of them home.

Huo Huaien, who followed behind Mo Xinian, saw Su Yao sitting in the living room as soon as they entered the door.

Huo Huaien couldn't say that she felt guilty when she saw her.

Su Yao stood up and walked over.

"You're back?"

Mo Xinian nodded at her. He was neither close nor distant.

There was no passion that a married couple should have.

Su Yao looked at Huo Huaien who was standing behind Mo Xinian and said calmly: "Miss Huo."

However, Huo Huaien nodded at her guiltily. "Miss Su."

Mo Xinian said to Yun Luo, "Take a few aunties with you and go out first."

Yun Luo accepted the order and left.

Mo Xinian looked at Su Yao and said, "Follow me to the study room."

"Xi Nian, I think we should call Miss Huo to discuss this matter."

"No need."

"But now, this is no longer a matter between the two of us." Su Yao was also very calm. She looked into Mo Xinian's eyes and seemed to be telling him that she did not plan on giving in.

Mo Xinian looked at Huo Huaien with a serious expression.

Su Yao looked at Huo Huaien and said with a firm voice, "Miss Huo, do you mind talking to us?"

Since she was called, Huo Huaien naturally knew what she wanted to talk about.

In this situation, she couldn't seem to avoid it.

She nodded. "Okay."

Su Yao came to the sofa and sat down. Huo Huaien followed and sat opposite of the TV.

At this moment, the TV was showing the progress of the third serial murder case that had occurred in the last two months ??

Mo Xinian walked to the sofa and sat down.

Su Yao went straight to the point. "I think we shouldn't waste each other's time. Xi Nian, Miss Huo, what do you plan to do about what happened that night?"

Huo Huaien's expression instantly became embarrassed.

Mo Xinian's eyes became sharp: "Say it, what conditions do you want?"

When the two women looked at Mo Xinian at the same time, they realized that Mo Xinian was talking to Su Yao.
