Poor little homeless, Mr. Huo took her home and loved her

Mother He sighed again.

"Look at you, how can you be so incompetent? They've already got the marriage certificate, but you haven't even gotten her yet."

He Mei complained a little: "I didn't know this situation would suddenly happen."

"You don't know?" Mother He glanced at her. "He got married on a whim? You swore to me that as long as I could find a way to get you to work at Huo's and become his secretary, you would be able to pursue him. But... Oh!"

He Mei lowered her head when she heard this.

She couldn't help but think of the solemn words she had said before. She felt that as long as she served as Huo Qingzhou's secretary, stayed by his side every day, and spent time with him often, he would develop feelings for her.

This way, it would be easier for her to catch him.

However, she didn't expect that Zhou Ning would come and defeat her.

Even though she was working for Huo Qingzhou, Huo Qingzhou was always cold to her.

"Marriage is fine, but the key is that I have investigated and found that the person who got the marriage certificate with Huo Qingzhou is just a low-class person. I cannot swallow this anger by letting a person without any background take advantage of it. How can she be worthy of it?"

He Mei was so irritated by these words that she clenched her teeth.

Mother He: "It would be great if you had half the ability I had back then."

He Mei understood that her mother had successfully used some tricks to snatch away her best friend's husband, and that's how she got to her current position.

Now, he was hoping that she could marry into the Huo family as soon as possible and become the young lady of the Huo family. This way, their status in the He family would be consolidated, and they could get their father's attention and please him.

He Mei took a deep breath and said, "I won't let you down. I will continue to find a way."

Mother He's eyes were calculating: "Since you can't please Huo Qingzhou now, and Huo Qingzhou is so obsessed with that low-class girl, then find another way in."

He Mei's expression changed after hearing this.

The two looked at each other, with thousands of calculations swirling around...

*

Zhou Ning learned that Huo Zhengan and Zhou Zhi's wedding anniversary was approaching, and also from Huo Qingzhou, she learned that the two celebrated their anniversary almost every year.

Huo Zhengan likes quietness, but Naihe Zhouzhi likes noise.

He is also a person who attaches great importance to ritual, so he naturally supports Zhou Zhi's idea unconditionally.

Almost every year on the anniversary, Zhou Zhi would invite people in his circle and a few close friends to the old house to have some fun.

Many people are eager to be invited by Zhou Zhi, but not many people can be invited. Everyone envies Zhou Zhi's status and wants to squeeze in.

Although everyone who came to participate had to prepare gifts, the Huo family prepared more gifts in return.

Rich families won't be too fussy about these things.

Zhou Ning thought that Huo Zhengan and Zhou Zhi were very nice to her on weekdays, especially Zhou Zhi, who was definitely a good mother-in-law and very open-minded. She must prepare a satisfactory gift for Zhou Zhi.

So, he took Ruan Huan to the old street, ready to find a good antique shop to prepare gifts for them.

After learning about it, Ruan Huan sighed and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Huo's parents have such a good relationship. He has lived in a loving family since he was a child. He must be very happy."

Suddenly I thought of Fu Hechuan. From childhood to adulthood, his parents were too busy with work to take care of him, until they passed away unexpectedly. He grew up under the control and tremendous pressure exerted by Grandma Fu.

This atmosphere is like an inescapable and suffocating cage.

Thinking of this, her eyes dimmed.

Zhou Ning responded. Huo Qingzhou had seen how his father treated his mother since he was a child, and he also learned how to love someone invisibly.

Love is subtle.

Love is learned through observation and hearing.

Noticing the change in Ruan Huan's eyes, she looked worried. Of course, she had another purpose in asking Ruan Huan out this time, which was to hope that he could accompany her to relax.

"Huanhuan, how have you been these past two days?"

After Ruan Huan's story, Zhou Ning learned that Fu Hechuan had been busy these two days and they didn't have much communication, but Fu Hechuan had been more strict with her travel requirements these days.

Apart from entering and leaving the school, you are allowed to see her and are not allowed to go anywhere else.

Zhou Ning's first reaction when she heard this was that Fu Hechuan might be worried that Grandma Fu would cause trouble for Ruan Huan.

Even though she was a little worried, after listening to Huo Qingzhou's words that day, she knew that even the best of friends had to have a sense of propriety, and that private emotional matters needed to be experienced and resolved by oneself.

Too much interference may cause things to deviate from their own track.

Although she has a grudge against Fu Hechuan now, she has to admit that Ruan Huan has been safe for so many years.

"Ningning, let's not talk about this anymore. It's rare for us to come out and relax. You want to buy me a pair of jade pendants as a gift, right? Let's go and take a look."

Zhou Ning nodded.

The two walked and chatted.

There are several antique shops around the place they came to.

Suddenly, an old man came uninvited and looked at them with a smile: "Little girls, I just heard your conversation, do you want to buy jade pendants?"

After nodding, the old man continued, "It just so happens that I have a lot of jade pendants in my store, all of which are genuine. If you are interested, you can come and have a look."

The two men saw the old man pointing to the location of the store, which was nearby, so they prepared to go and take a look.

As soon as you enter the store, you will see a wide variety of antiques.

The two of them were dazzled.

The old man led them to a place and said, "Look, there are several kinds of jade pendants here. Pick one and give it to your elders as a gift. It's perfect."

Zhou Ning was cautious: "How do you know I want to give it to my elders as a gift?"

The old man's eyes flickered a few times, and he hid his smile: "I heard you guys talking just now, it's easy to guess."

Zhou Ning didn't think much about it and took a fancy to one of the pair of jade pendants. She picked it up and found that the style was very beautiful and had a good meaning. Her intuition told her that Zhou Zhi would like this style very much.

Just as he was about to ask, the old man took the jade pendant away.

"Little girl, you have a good eye. This pair of jade pendants is the best thing in my collection, but it is very expensive. I see that you are still young and probably can't afford it. Don't touch it. If you break it, you can't even afford the compensation."

Ruan Huan blurted out: "How do you know we can't afford it? You know Ning Ning is Huo..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhou Ning.

You should keep a low profile when you are outside.

Ruan Huan had no choice but to stop talking.

Zhou Ning asked about the price of the pair of jade pendants and learned that it was five million. She felt that the old man's thought was understandable, as five million was a large sum of money for her.

However, if it was given as a gift to Zhou Zhi and Huo Zhengan, it would not be a big deal.

Since it is a gift for them, of course it has to be a good one, so as not to lose face for Huo Qingzhou on the anniversary day.

After all, her words and actions now also represent Huo Qingzhou.

After taking a look around, Zhou Ning was still moved by the pair of jade pendants she had just seen. Perhaps this was a special fate.

The old man urged: "If you really want to buy it, hurry up, it's a hot commodity. Don't worry about the quality, it won't be a fake."

Zhou Ning's heart was moved, but she still remained rational.

Especially seeing that the old man was so enthusiastic, we just met on the street for no reason.

At the same time, Ruan Huan's questioning voice sounded: "Ningning, there is something wrong with this pair of jade pendants."
