Gu Shishi felt her eyes warming up and she quickly lowered her eyes and blinked.

“Mmm… but I am nervous.”

Huo Sishen was stunned for a second and finally laughed out loud heartily after the elevator door had closed.

He pulled her into his arms and patted her on her back.

“Here I thought you are afraid of nothing.”

Gu Shishi pouted.

It had been a year since she heard anything from the system.

Any way she looked at it, his danger should have passed and she no longer had to live with worries.

Inside a private room of Jinhai Club.

For a change, the entire Huo family was present.

Mother Huo reminded her pair of children after the waiter had left.

“The party that we are meeting have been overseas for a long time. Many of the enterprises overseas are family businesses that had passed down from generation to generation so the family situations of their partners are important to them.

“Don’t do anything that will embarrass us today. One way or another, do show them how well the two of you work together.”

Huo ChuChu pouted a little when she heard that.

“She got pregnant a while ago. It was an accident, I think. Neither one of them were prepared. My daughter-in-law ran into her and Wencheng when she went for her prenatal checkup. She ran into them a week ago right after the miscarriage and Gu Wushuang was crying. My daughter-in-law overheard that she asked… for 50 million from Huo Wencheng and they will get a divorce.”

Chen Kexin’s eyes widened as she gasped. “50 million. Oh wow! Huh, I didn’t hear about that before.”

Mrs. Zhang smiled and waved her hand. “You are a single girl. You don’t need to know these things.

“And it only happened a week ago. I have invited you to come for flower appreciation and you skipped out on it.”

Chen Kexin let out a small cry. “Oh. I was travelling last week.”

She missed out on this big melon.

Old Mrs. Chen’s eyes reddened a little all of a sudden. “When you were still a child, you came to celebrate my birthday once. I remember a girl was chasing behind you and Keke bawled her eyes out because you didn’t want to play with her.”

“No way, Grandma! That did not happen!”

Chen Kexin almost bit her own tongue.

Huo Sishen’s lips curved a little. He reached out his hand and held Gu Shishi’s. “Mmhmm. I remember that too. Grandma Chen didn’t look a day older than you did before.”

Old Mrs. Chen put her hand over her mouth and smiled.
