Chapter 193: Chapter 193 Duanmu Qing
Song Song realized she was in the man’s arms, and immediately reached out to push him away, but at the same time, she saw the trolley behind her and guessed what Huo Junting had meant by his actions just now.
She smiled and said, "Thank you, big brother!"
Huo Junting’s eyes were clear and bright, and there was a momentary daze on his handsome face, "What did you just call me?"
"Big brother! I heard Huohuo also calls you that..."
Aren’t they siblings? Was there something wrong with her calling him big brother?
A glint of mystery flashed in Huo Junting’s eyes. In fact, both he and Huohuo weren’t Huo Chen’s biological children; they were orphans adopted by Huo Chen from the orphanage when he was ten and Huohuo was still an infant.
So, he and Huohuo were siblings by adoption, but they had no blood relation to the girl in front of them.
"If you feel calling me big brother is more natural, then go ahead."
Song Song had always wanted siblings since she was young, and now it had finally come true, she felt a bit delighted, "Big brother, shall we go in then!"
"Alright—"
Just as the two were about to return to the private room, someone approached them and spoke first, "What a coincidence, Mr. Huo!"
Song Song heard the voice and had a sudden flutter in her heart. She turned her head to look, and it was indeed him...
"Uncle... what are you doing here?"
Yesterday, she called him several times, but he didn’t answer. She didn’t expect to bump into him here today.
Huo Junting was evidently a bit surprised too, raising his hand to shake his, "President Xiao, indeed very coincidental, I didn’t expect to meet you here."
"Regarding my sister Huohuo’s matter, I haven’t thanked you yet. If you’re available, would you join us? How about it?"
Xiao Jinghuai smiled inscrutably and finally turned his gaze to Song Song’s shocked little face, "Just afraid some people might not welcome me..."
Uh, Song Song felt his sharp eyes; could it be that the unwelcome person he referred to was her?
"No, not at all! My mom is here too, you’re certainly welcome..."
She remembered the last person Ms. Song saw before leaving Qing City was him!
So, their relationship should be good, right!
Besides, she originally wanted to share with him about finding her biological father, wasn’t this a great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone?
Huo Junting, having been in the business world for so long, could easily see the way Xiao Jinghuai looked at Song Song.
Uncle?
How could he really be an uncle, probably just like him, also a pseudo blood relation!
However, in the end, Xiao Jinghuai didn’t enter Song Song’s private room. Using the excuse of having other matters, he turned and left.
Song Song watched his departing back with a hint of disappointment, unable to guess what he was really thinking.
After returning to the private room, Song Song became a bit absent-minded, unable to taste the food, and feeling dazed.
...
Meanwhile, in another private room, Xiao Jinghuai was eating with someone, occasionally showing a smile.
But this smile wasn’t due to the person he was dining with, but rather the little girl he had just seen outside the private room.
"Jinghuai..."
The other person suddenly called his name.
Xiao Jinghuai looked up, "What?"
"How are things with Qiao Yu, it’s about time to settle that. I’m eager to have a grandchild!"
The woman speaking wore an elegant and exquisite cheongsam, her face was charming and beautiful, even at her age, it did not mar her appearance in the slightest.
This was exactly Xiao Jinghuai’s mother, Duanmu Qing.
A light flashed in Xiao Jinghuai’s eyes, "You have grandchildren, there’s no need to rush."
"Ha!"
Duanmu Qing’s expression suddenly changed dramatically, and she threw down her chopsticks, "Jinghuai, we rarely have a quiet meal together, do you have to make it unpleasant for me?"
"I will never acknowledge that wild child as my grandchild, allowing him to have the Xiao surname is already the greatest kindness to him."
