Chapter 1063: Chapter 1066-Side Story (5)
Even though Old Mrs. Huo did not have the Heavenly Eye, her title as a master of metaphysics was not for nothing. Moreover, she had long expected the problem between Li Muyao and her grandson. She had been waiting.
He waited year after year, until the fifteenth of the eighth month of the eighth year after Li Muyao returned!
“I… Grandma Huo, I’m indeed a little busy. I have to go back to my hometown tonight. Besides, I’m in Sun City now, not Jin City.”Li Muyao didn’t know if it was because she had been avoiding everyone recently that she hadn’t been eating well or sleeping well.
She even felt a little disgusted. When she called Huo Jiling, she often felt wronged and scared, but she didn’t dare to show it. Also, Li Muyao had been very lucky since her rebirth, but after being away from Huo Jiling and her brothers, Li Muyao found that she was in a bad mood and her luck wasn’t very good.
Especially when Li Muyao was in a bad mood, she wanted to grab a doll to play and hit the wooden warehouse to play. After playing it a few times, Li Muyao didn’t get anything. She had played with dolls and wooden barns before, and she had always hit the mark.
“Yaoyao is in Sun City? Ah Ling is also in Sun City. If you want to go back to your hometown, then let Ah Ling send you home. Ling is your boyfriend, so it’s only right for him to send you home and visit your father.
Yaoyao, is your company now? I’ll call Ah Ling to look for you now. It’s still early. I have to get home before it gets dark. Yaoyao, did you hear Grandma?
Don’t reject me, alright?
It’s your birthday today. Even if something unhappy happens between you and Ling, you can hit and scold him. If Ling doesn’t coax you, I, as his grandmother, won’t let him off.
Yaoyao, let Ling send you back to your hometown. Grandma will be at ease. Besides, Yaoyao, you haven’t been feeling well recently. You won’t let an old woman like me worry about you, right?”
Li Muyao finally nodded when she heard Old Mrs. Huo’s refusal. Indeed, Li Muyao missed Huo Jiling very much. However, Li Muyao didn’t understand. She hadn’t told anyone about her discomfort.
Even the hospital didn’t go to the hospital to get rid of Li Muyao because they were worried about meeting someone they knew. Even when Little Cangzhu and Little Jingjing said they missed her, Li Muyao found an excuse to reject them. He was afraid that the She family would see through his discomfort.
“Grandma, how did you know I wasn’t feeling well?”
Li Muyao still asked, and Old Madam Huo immediately smiled on the other end of the phone. She was very happy.”Yaoyao, when you come back with Ling, I’ll tell you the answer, okay?”
“Uh… Alright, goodbye, Grandma.”
Less than ten minutes after Li Muyao hung up with Old Mrs. Huo, Huo Jiling, whom she hadn’t seen for almost twenty-three days, appeared in her office. Li Muyao wanted to run over and jump into Huo Jiling’s arms, but she was afraid. She just bit her lips and looked at Huo Jiling with reddened eyes.
Huo Jiling wasn’t as calm as Li Muyao. If it wasn’t for Grandma’s reminder, Huo Jiling wouldn’t have let Li Muyao leave him for 23 days without seeing him. They only talked on the phone every day, and they rarely even had video calls. Huo Jiling couldn’t stand it at all.
Coincidentally, Huo Jiling was also in Yang City. However, as soon as Li Muyao got on the plane to Yang City, Huo Jiling immediately followed her. The two flights took less than half an hour.
Li Muyao didn’t move, but Huo Jiling did. He went forward and gently hugged Li Muyao.”Baby, don’t you miss me? Twenty-three days. I missed you every day. I missed you so much that I couldn’t eat or sleep well. Look, I’ve lost weight. Especially his hands. Baby, look at them. They’ve become ugly.”
Huo Jiling always knew that his baby wouldn’t care much if he lost weight.
However, if he said that his hands were going to become ugly, his baby would definitely be heartbroken.
As expected, Li Muyao couldn’t hold on to her beautiful hands anymore. She held Huo Jiling’s hands and observed them carefully. His hands were dry and not smooth at all. It was obvious that Huo Jiling hadn’t taken good care of his hands. Li Muyao was a little angry. These were her hands. How could she treat them like this?
“It’s all your fault. You didn’t take good care of it. Look, it’s not easy to touch at all. Ah Ling, you promised me that you would take good care of these hands every day. You simply didn’t keep your word. I’m very angry.”
She was really angry, but she was also really happy. Li Muyao really missed Huo Jiling, but because she was going to die on her 32nd birthday, it had been stuck in Li Muyao’s mind. Recently, it was especially obvious and intense. It tortured Li Muyao so much that she felt like she was going crazy. She was obviously a very cheerful person.
“Baby, I’m sorry. You should be angry. Baby, why don’t you punish me to accompany you back to your hometown? Didn’t you miss Daddy? I’ll accompany you to see him. Baby, you promised me before that no matter what mistake I made, you had to tell me face to face.
This time, for a whole twenty-three days, baby, you said that I was right, but you were unwilling to see me.
Baby, we agreed to be honest with each other. If you have anything on your mind, you have to tell me… Now, you’re acting like you’re leaving me, baby, you Do you really not want me anymore?”
In the end, Huo Jiling felt wronged. He didn’t know what had happened to his baby recently, but nothing had happened. If it wasn’t for Grandma, Huo Jiling would have appeared in front of Li Muyao long ago. He had been waiting and waiting until today.
Huo Jiling even thought that if Li Muyao didn’t want to get married, she didn’t have to get engaged. As long as his baby was by his side every day, it didn’t matter if he didn’t give her a title.
One had to know that during this period of time, his baby had been hiding from him. Even Li Muyu, Li Muyang, and Cai Mao’s three younger brothers had been hiding together. Huo Jiling was both angry and amused, but at the same time, he felt sorry for himself and worried about his baby.
There’s no such thing as a new one. Forget it, let’s go home together.”
Li Muyao didn’t know what to say, but she thought of her birthday that Old Mrs. Huo had mentioned on the phone.
Yes, today was the 15th of August, the Mid-Autumn Festival.
“Good!”
Huo Jiling answered straightforwardly, so he immediately held Li Muyao’s hand and left the company, driving to Pinglan County. Not long after they got on the highway, Li Muyao’s eyelids became heavy. Huo Jiling gently said to her,”Baby, if you’re tired, you can sleep for a while. I’ll call you when we reach the county town.”
“Okay, remember to call me when you get home.” Li Muyao nodded in relief and really fell asleep.
