2732 To Be Honest, I'm a Good Person (2)

"Mingxi… why are you suddenly… asking about that?" Huo Yanyan forced a smile at Shen Mingxi.

"Oh, nothing, I just suddenly thought of it."

"My mother hasn't been back to the country for a very long time. Now that she's finally back, it makes sense that she's visiting all of her relatives. Also, I don't know what would happen if Huo Siqian found out about her return… so, I told her to stay longer at the village." Huo Yanyan came up with the perfect excuse. 

"Oh, I see…" Shen Mingxi nodded, saying nothing more.

After dinner, Huo Yanyan sat down with Tiantian to read her a fairytale. Shen Mingxi put on his jacket and headed out.

"You're going out?"

"Yeah, I'm meeting a couple of friends to discuss some business."

"Okay. Don't drink too much and come home early." Huo Yanyan was gentle as always.

It was a quality not possessed by Wei Ying, so Shen Mingxi had always felt happy with Huo Yanyan.
