Chapter 794 - Happy New Year (1/2)

Everyone in the group knew what he was up to.

Lu Yubai: You agreed?

Huo Ci: How could that be? I would never agree to this marriage!

Rong Yin: Then why are you eating New Year’s Eve dinner with him? Isn’t New Year’s Eve dinner a family reunion dinner?

Jiang Zhe: He probably just won’t admit it verbally even though he has accepted him in his heart.

Yan Yuanfei: Sixth Brother, Ah Yan is quite nice. You can’t find such an outstanding son-in-law elsewhere. Let me remind you that there is no such shop after passing this village[1].

Huo Ci: You wish. Whoever wants him can give birth to a daughter. Let him be your son-in-law.

Rong Yin: If I had a daughter, I would really consider it.

Xiaoqi had already brought out the yogurt. He gave Huo Ci a glass and Nangong Lengyu another cup.

Huo Ci posted more photos to show off his daughter’s culinary skills, making the group extremely envious. He was immensely satisfied.

The gala’s New Year’s bell rang for the last time. The old year had passed, and a new year arrived.

Xiaoqi nestled in Huo Ci’s embrace and nodded his head. He was sleepy, but he was still trying his best to focus on the television. When he heard the New Year’s bell, his eyes widened abruptly and he jumped up excitedly. He was the first to give his blessing. “Happy New Year!”

Ling Sheng’s eyes felt a little warm as she looked at the people beside her. It was good to have people she cared about accompanying her on New Year’s Eve. If her grandparents were here too, it would be perfect.

The moment the bell rang at midnight, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers echoed around them. It was very lively. One could see the beautiful fireworks in the sky from the window.

Huo Ci had just entered the bathroom when he realized that he had not taken his bathrobe. When he turned around, he saw the brat taking a thick coat and sneaking out like a thief. He coughed, “Where are you going?”

Ling Sheng had just seen her father go to the bathroom. It would probably take him more than 10 minutes to take a shower. She had not expected him to come out as soon as he entered. She stood up calmly. She definitely must not show any fear or guilt. She looked at him and smiled sweetly. “I’m going to ask the doctor about Xiaoqi’s condition.”

There was no way Huo Ci would believe her. To go next door to find a doctor, did she have to grab such a thick down jacket like she would freeze to death? “There’s central heating outside and in the doctor’s office too.”

Under her father’s death glare, Ling Sheng put down the down jacket and smiled. “Father, I’ll be back soon. Xiaoqi is asleep. You can take your time bathing. Don’t worry.”

She suspected that her father had done it on purpose. She had just been about to leave when he caught her red-handed. This really made her suspect that he had a mind-reading ability or a premonition ability.

Upon seeing her leave as though nothing had happened, Huo Ci’s lips curled up coldly. That brat! Did she think he did not know that she was out for a rendezvous?

Xiaoqi was sleeping. It would not do if no one was watching him. Otherwise, he would definitely have followed her to see what that scumbag Old Jun was up to.

Ling Sheng was about to freeze to death. Her father had not allowed her to take the down jacket, so in order to eliminate his suspicions, she had not dared to take it. She was only wearing a woolen shirt.
