Chapter 997: I Like You Very Much (2/2)

Mo Ning realized immediately that Huo Run had called her in a more familiar way and saw that she was blushing. She suppressed the uncomfortable feeling in her chest and played along. “Runrun.”

Huo Run bit down on her lip and blushed even more.

Mo Ning smiled tenderly at the sight of Huo Run, but her eyes flashed in recognition at what it all meant.

She knew that from that moment on, the Huo family’s young miss had fallen for her.

Even though she had failed to kill Lu Zhaoyang that night, her bond with Huo Run would provide her with ample opportunity later.

When the banquet was finally over, the guests began to take their leave.

Lu Zhaoyang and Huo Yunting were there to see them off.

“You are welcome to visit our place anytime, Mo Ning,” Lu Zhaoyang said with a cheerful smile and added frankly, “I like you very much.”

Huo Yunting threw a look at her. “I thought you told me last night that I’m the only one you like?”

“…”

Lu Zhaoyang wanted to roll her eyes.

Why can’t the man just grow up and act his age?!

“Shut up!”

Lu Zhaoyang felt embarrassed when she noticed that Mo Ning was enjoying the scene.

She coughed awkwardly and glared at Huo Yunting. Then, she took Mo Ning’s hand and said, “You’re Runrun’s classmate, right? Please take care of her.”

“I will.”

“Cough, it’s getting late, you should head back now.”

Huo Yunting went to them, discreetly separated her hands from Ning’s and then gripped his wife’s hand tightly. “I’ll ask the driver to send you home.”

“Thank you, Uncle.”

In the end, however, Mo Ning rejected the driver’s service and went back with Yan Sinian in Huo Junyu’s car.
