Chapter 382: Chapter 382 The First Lady
“Probably, I guess? I wasn’t paying attention to what he was saying…” Su Zixi indicated that she didn’t care about Ning Yichen at all, “By the way, are you done with your work? I took Uncle Li with me, so how will you handle dinner?”
Su Zixi asked worriedly.
“It’s not important that Uncle Li left.” He sighed softly, “It’s more fatal that you’re gone. What should I do tonight?”
Su Zixi’s face turned bright red! Fearing that Huo Yanhui next to her would see, she brushed her hair forward to block her flushed cheeks.
“Well, you might as well… take some rest and recuperation.” Su Zixi coughed lightly, “I’ll wait for you in Yangdong City.”
“Okay.” The man chuckled ambiguously.
Su Zixi quickly hung up the phone.
Bracing against Huo Yanhui’s teasing smile, she returned the phone as if nothing had happened: “Here.”
“Ah, such a long night, what will Jingyao do…” he said sentimentally.
Su Zixi felt so annoyed she wanted to kick him!
The car drove for a full hour before finally arriving at Wanhe Qianfeng Garden.
This was a very famous upscale villa area in Yangdong City, where many high-ranking officials resided, so it was not surprising that the He Family had a property here.
Huo Yanhui lamented, “Property in Yangdong City costs a fortune, one here can be several billion. Even I can’t afford it!”
Although the Huo Family was also quite wealthy, they couldn’t compare with top-tier tycoons. The Huo Family’s special status was more about their identity; after all, anyone could get sick, so in Yanzhou City, the Huo Family’s status was extraordinary, and everyone was willing to make nice with them. Wherever Huo Yanhui went, people would respectfully address him as Second Young Master Huo.
“As for a house, it’s fine as long as you can live in it.” Su Zixi sighed, “A place too large makes one lack a sense of belonging.”
Like Hades Manor, although He Jingyao had always told her it was her home, she only felt a sense of belonging in her room…
Huo Yanhui slapped his thigh, “Sister-in-law, you’re absolutely right!”
Su Zixi chuckled, “Doctor Huo, do you know what it’s called when you can’t eat grapes and say they’re sour?”
Huo Yanhui turned his head towards the window, pretending he heard nothing…
The car circled inside Wanhe Qianfeng Garden a few times and finally stopped in front of a villa.
At that moment, an understated luxury car drove past them.
Su Zixi didn’t pay much attention, but Huo Yanhui’s gaze was immediately drawn to that car.
“What’s wrong?” Su Zixi couldn’t help asking.
“Tsk, tsk…” He shook his head, “The license plate on that car just now… it’s probably someone from the President Mansion.”
Su Zixi grew curious and looked out the window with him, only to see that car slowly stopping.
Inside the car belonging to the President Mansion, Ye Shutong smiled at the lady beside her, “Auntie, I saw a friend and would like to go say hello, may I?”
The First Lady, Chu Jinyu, smiled, “Of course, go ahead. I’ll wait for you here.”
“Thank you, Auntie.” Ye Shutong beamed with a bright smile before getting out of the car.
On the passenger side, the housekeeper and companion to the First Lady, Han Ying, laughed, “The First Lady is really good to Miss Shutong.”
Chu Jinyu smiled, “Girls their age are supposed to be lively and playful. Seeing her reminds me of my younger self.”
As she spoke, she sighed slightly with a trace of melancholy and caressed a platinum ring on her right hand.
“You’re still young, First Lady,” Han Ying joked.
