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

Zhou Ning was obviously stunned.

Seeing that Bai Yu had invited her again, Zhou Ning thought that she was also a leader and had just started working, so it was difficult to refuse and she had to agree.

"Do you want to call other people?"

"No, I want to take you to see someone during this dinner."

Zhou Ning responded and became even more puzzled.

The two came to a restaurant near the company and sat down face to face. Knowing that the man had not arrived yet, Zhou Ning was full of curiosity and waited obediently.

Thinking of something, Zhou Ning sent a message to Huo Qingzhou, informing him that he had to attend a social event with his boss and would be back later.

Sitting opposite Bai Yu, Zhou Ning didn't know what to say. Besides the fact that they were unfamiliar with each other, the atmosphere was very subtle as their relationship was that of a leader and an employee.

Suddenly, Zhou Ning noticed that Bai Yu waved towards the restaurant door.

It seems that the person I've been waiting for has arrived.

Zhou Ning looked back curiously, her eyes also flashing with surprise. The person Bai Yu said he would take her to meet turned out to be Senior Chen Yuan.

When Chen Yuan's gaze fell on Zhou Ning, he was slightly stunned, with a complicated look, then he retracted his gaze, walked up to them, and sat down next to Bai Yu.

Zhou Ning came back to his senses and greeted him generously: "Senior, long time no see."

The two haven't met since their last field trip.

Zhou Ning didn't expect to meet on an occasion like today.

Bai Yu took Chen Yuan's arm and introduced him with a smile: "This is my boyfriend Chen Yuan. I've heard Chen Yuan mention you before, so I brought you here to meet him today."

Zhou Ning understood and instantly realized why Bai Yu suddenly said those words in the conference room.

It turns out that she and Chen Yuan are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

Chen Yuan just sat next to Bai Yu, glanced at Zhou Ning, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Ever since he learned the news that Zhou Ning and Huo Qingzhou were getting married, he was completely desperate. He could only bury his love deep in his heart, knowing that no matter how much he liked her, he could not disturb her.

Besides, he had no right to compare himself with a big shot like Huo Qingzhou.

This may be his sadness as an ordinary person.

Zhou Ning was surprised to learn that Chen Yuan worked in the same company as her: "Senior, it turns out that Erwen was where you interned back then."

Chen Yuan nodded, "Yes, but I'm not in the same department as you."

Zhou Ning suddenly felt that the world was much smaller than she had imagined.

However, Erwen is a big company that carries the dreams of many young people.

Bai Yu then added: "Chen Yuan is also a leader now."

Zhou Ning quickly praised him a few words, knowing that Chen Yuan had started his internship early and had outstanding abilities, it was normal for him to become a leader after working hard for a few years.

Chen Yuan didn't answer, and changed the subject: "Let's order some food."

Under Chen Yuan's warm hospitality, Zhou Ning ordered a dish.

Bai Yu immediately smiled and said, "Zhou Ning, you can eat spicy food too. Come to think of it, our tastes are quite similar."

During the meal, Bai Yu did most of the talking. She mentioned her love story with Chen Yuan. They met while interning at the company, and over time, they began a relationship.

"Zhou Ning, you know Chen Yuan and you're in my group. When I get married to Chen Yuan in the future, I will definitely invite you to our wedding."

Zhou Ning: "Okay, I'd love to have you. I'll definitely prepare the money for the gift when the time comes."

Bai Yu: "Remember to invite your husband as well."

Zhou Ning simply responded, thinking that if that day really came, given Huo Qingzhou's personality, it was unclear whether he would go, not to mention that Bai Yu was just being polite.

"Are you planning to settle down in Jiangcheng?"

Chen Yuan: "Almost, but the house hasn't been bought yet."

When Bai Yu heard what Chen Yuan said, his expression changed slightly, and he added in time: "We have the money to buy a house, but we just haven't decided where to buy it."

Zhou Ning nodded in sudden realization without giving it any further thought.

Bai Yu: "After a while, Chen Yuan will be able to get promoted again."

When Chen Yuan heard this, he lowered his head and said nothing.

After the meal, Zhou Ning was about to pay but was stopped by the two men.

Bai Yu: "We agreed that we would treat you to a meal."

Zhou Ning felt a little embarrassed.

"If you feel embarrassed, you can invite him back when you have the chance in the future, and ask Mr. Huo to come along." Bai Yu said with a smile.

the other side.

Beibei and Xixi paced back and forth in the living room, looking at the closed door with frowns, wondering why mommy hasn't come back yet.

Beibei crossed his hands behind his back, looking like a little adult.

Xixi held her cheeks with both hands and pouted her rosy little lips.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang, attracting the attention of both of them.

Beibei's eyes lit up: "It must be Mommy coming back!"

"Mommy! Mommy!"

The two of them ran to the door happily, waiting with eyes wide open and full of anticipation. The moment the door opened, their shoulders slumped when they saw Huo Qingzhou walk in.

Huo Qingzhou looked at them: "Are you unhappy to see your father?"

Xixi was stunned for a moment and shook her head: "No, I'm happy to see Daddy."

As he spoke, he opened his arms.

Seeing Xixi asking for a hug, Huo Qingzhou's heart melted. He picked her up, and then heard Xixi's voice continue to ring.

"But I'll be happier to see Mommy."

Huo Qingzhou was speechless, but soon recovered and continued to happily hold Xixi in his arms, gently swinging her in the air a few times.

Xixi shouted happily: "Hahaha, I'm flying."

After they stood firm on their feet, Xixi looked at Beibei and said, "Brother, you want to fly, right? Let daddy hold you and spin around, okay?"

Beibei's eyes lit up at first, then he thought of something and shook his head: "No, no, this is a bit childish for me."

"This is really fun. You can see from a very high place."

Beibei stood like a pine tree, with his hands in his pockets, unmoved, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Xixi looked at her in surprise, her brother is so cool!

Beibei changed the subject: "Dad, why hasn't Mommy come back yet?"

When Huo Qingzhou heard Zhou Ning, his eyebrows almost drooped, and he said in a sullen tone: "She has an appointment today and will be back later."

Then he walked to the sofa and sat down, thinking that it was only Zhou Ning's first day at work and he had to deal with this social event. What will happen in the future?

What should I do if my boss asks me to drink during a social event in the future and I get drunk?

Huo Qingzhou's heart is conflicted. On the one hand, he doesn't want Zhou Ning to be too tired and worry about everything. On the other hand, he hopes that Zhou Ning can go further and pursue his dreams boldly.

When the two little guys saw Huo Qingzhou sitting on the sofa, they quickly ran over to him, climbed onto the sofa, and sat down on both sides of him.

Xixi: "Dad, are you unhappy?"

Huo Qingzhou denied it.

Xixi: "Your expression is obviously unhappy."

Huo Qingzhou didn't know what to say for a moment. The child's observation skills were very meticulous.

When Xixi asked Huo Qingzhou what he was thinking about, Huo Qingzhou was thinking about how to answer when Beibei's voice sounded first:

"Xiao Xixi, Daddy is unhappy because Mommy hasn't come home yet. Daddy misses Mommy."
