"Alright, Aunty, I understand. I’ll go find Brother Jiabao in a bit. If you have nothing else, I’ll hang up first. " Xu Lan had wanted to pick up the phone a long time ago, but now she had finally found an excuse.

"Mm, go ahead."

After Tang Yingyue hung up, she put down her phone and let out a long sigh.

She got up and prepared to go to Huo Jiu’s bedroom. As she walked to the door, her eyes inadvertently glanced at the casual clothes she was wearing, and her eyeballs rolled for a moment before she returned to the cabinet. She changed into a sexy, sexy, silk nightgown with a silk dress over it.

She put a bit of perfume on her neck and wrist, then tidied up her fluffy curly hair before wearing her high heels and headed for the room where the family heirloom was kept.

Arriving at the door of Huo Jiu’s room, she knocked lightly on the door, but there was no response from inside.

Isn’t he here?

He lowered his head and looked at the time on his phone. It was already past 10 pm. At this time, he should be returning to the hotel.

After some thought, she still dialed Qian Jun’s number to confirm.

The phone was picked up not long later as Qian Jun’s voice sounded from inside, "Miss Xu, is there something you need?"

"Assistant Qian?" Let me ask you, is Jiabao in the hotel? I had an urgent matter to discuss with him, and my aunt just called me and told me something important to tell Brother Jiabao. "

"Oh, we just came back from outside and are getting ready to get out of the elevator." As soon as Qian Jun finished speaking, he walked out of the elevator with Huo Jianji.

Arriving at the corridor, he could see Xu Lan in her pajamas standing in front of the door of the Huojiao Suite from afar.

Qian Jun’s brows twitched as he intentionally cast a glance at Huo Jiabao, "Boss Huo, Miss Xu looks really cool this time. The temperature in your room has been set so low; I wonder if you’ve caught a cold."

How could Huo Jiajou not understand what he meant by that? He immediately glared at him.

Qian Jun suddenly reached out his hand to cover his stomach, feigning a stomachache. "Director Huo, my stomach isn’t feeling well. I think I’ll go back to my room to use the toilet first."

"Hold it right there!" Huojiao knew he was looking for an excuse to slip away, and immediately warned him.

"Director Huo, you’re too inhumane like this." Qian Jun retorted in a low voice.

"I have something even more inhumane. Do you want to try it?" The Hornet’s Nest threatened him.

Qian Jun hurriedly shook his head. "I’ll accompany you back to your room."

On the other side of the door, Xu Lan didn’t expect Huo Jiu to return with Qian Jun. When Qian Jun saw her like this, she couldn’t help but feel a little awkward. She tightened her robe and pressed her legs together.

"What is it? I came back late to delay your business? " Huo Jiabao said in an indifferent tone.

Xu Lan’s face turned red as she felt even more uncomfortable.

Qian Jun stepped forward, swiped his room card to open the door. Huo Jiu walked in with big strides, Qian Jun and Xu Lan following behind him.

He purposely slowed down his footsteps, waited until Xu Lan had walked to her side, and whispered to her, "Director Huo is not in a good mood today, don’t mind who gets to eat who."

Hearing this, Xu Lan’s mood improved a little. As long as Huo Jiu wasn’t targeting her, it didn’t matter.

Smiling faintly, she shook her head and said, "I’m fine."

Huo Jiu walked into the living room, sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and impatiently looked at Xu Lan: "Speak, don’t you have urgent matters to tell me? "What is it?"

"Oh, it’s like this, Brother Jiabao. My aunt just called and said that your sister, Miss Huo Xi Wen Huo, went to the company today. She even kicked my aunt out of the company in front of so many people. It was really embarrassing for my aunt ..." Xu Lan briefly reported the contents of Tang Yingyue’s phone call to Huo Jianji.

Huo Jiabao frowned when he heard this. "Why would my mom go to the company?"

"Huh?" Xu Lan did not expect Huo Jiabao’s focus to be on why Tang Yingyue appeared in the company.

"I’m asking you, she’s perfectly fine. Why is she running to the company when she has nothing to do?" Huo Jiabao asked again.

"This... Auntie, she probably wants to keep an eye on the situation of the company for you since you’re not here. " Xu Lan could only find an excuse.

"She went to see the company for me? What does she know? " Huo Jiko coldly snorted.

"Then... No matter what, Miss Huo couldn’t kick her aunt out of the company. She did it in front of so many people, so she didn’t care about your face at all. If you go back to the company, what would those employees think of you? Besides, didn’t she give you full authority over the company? Now that you’re not here, what’s wrong with her taking the opportunity to return to the company? " Xu Feng felt that this was the main point of this matter.

"I told her to go back." Huo Jiabao said.

"What?" You let her... "Why are you ..." Xu Lan was puzzled. Was he not afraid that it would be easier to send her to heaven if she invited a god? If Huo Xi Wen didn’t leave, wouldn’t Huo Ying give her a seat?

"The Huo family is hers to begin with. Now that I’m not at the company, isn’t it normal for her to go back and take care of some related matters?" Huo Jiujiao looked at her impatiently, then said, "It’s the middle of the night, why are you dressing up like this when you’re going out? Aren’t you afraid of being misunderstood? Treat you like a professional woman. "

Hearing his evaluation of her, Xu Feng’s face blushed again. She lowered her head and said softly, "I just received a call from my aunt. In a hurry, I left in my pajamas before I could change."

"Miss Xu even wears high heels when she sleeps. As expected, it’s really not easy for you women." Qian Jun sighed to the side, seemingly unintentionally.

His words were a reminder to Huo Jiabao. It wasn’t that she didn’t have time to change clothes; even his shoes knew that he needed to wear high heels. It was obvious that she didn’t change his pajamas on purpose.

In this way, her motives were a little obvious.

This made Huo Jiu’s frown deepen.

One had to know that he had never had any presumptuous thoughts towards Xu Lan.

All this time, he had only regarded her as a sister that wasn’t close to him.

Xu Lan lived in her house, so for his mother’s sake, he didn’t show any disgust towards her. Occasionally, when she was in a good mood, he would give her a few smiley faces, but that didn’t mean he liked her that much.

Now that her actions and mental calculations had been exposed, it made him unhappy.

He could accept the company of an unimportant person eating and drinking in his home, but that didn’t mean he could accept a woman wanting to do these things in his home.
