Chapter 98: A Change in Plans
The private plane landed on the helipad in the back garden of the Huo Manor. The Huo family had been waiting for a long time.
Standing in front of them was the Huo family’s old master, Huo Qi.
Although the old master was in his 70s, he was still in good health. However, when he received the news of Huo Zhen’s unexpected death, he fell seriously ill.
Huo Zhen, who was dressed in a black suit, stepped out of the plane and stopped in front of the old man.
“Grandpa, I’m back.”
Hearing this, the eyes of the usually tough old master Huo could not help but turn red.
Huo Zhen greeted everyone one by one and did not make any mistakes in etiquette.
For the old man’s health, everyone decided to hold the welcoming banquet for Huo Zhen in a few days, so they left after greeting each other.
Returning to the familiar room, Huo Zhen was still a little absent-minded.
He had not expected old master Huo to be so emotional today. Now, it seemed that it would not be possible for him to stay at a hotel anymore. It was said that plans could not keep up with changes, but it was true.
As soon as Mo Yan got off the plane, she sent a message to Luo Tao. She did not expect Luo Tao to call her.
“Hello, Luo Tao, I got off the plane. Where are you now?”
Luo Tao looked at the large lawn outside the window. He hesitated for a moment and said, “There are some problems at work. I might not be able to go to Jing City for the time being.”
When Mo Yan heard Luo Tao’s words, her excited expression gradually dimmed. She calmed herself down, sorted out her emotions, and smiled at Luo Tao, “I see! Then you have to work hard! Otherwise, you won’t be able to earn money to support me!”
It would be a lie to say that she wasn’t disappointed. Although Mo Yan was here for work, she was looking forward to walking around Jing City with Luo Tao in her spare time.
Now that her plans had changed, she could only spend more time with sister Xu and Li Guoguo.
“Alright, take care of yourself. Stay with your colleagues, don’t go out alone. I’ll come over after things are settled.”
“Yes, okay.” Then she thought of Luo Tao’s last sentence and raised her voice, “Will you come soon?”
Luo Tao could hear the happiness in Mo Yan’s words and laughed softly.
“Yes, I still want to tour Jing City with you.”
Mo Yan smiled with her eyes curved, and her voice became sweeter, “Okay, Hubby, I’ll wait for you.”
“Okay, take care of yourself,” Luo Tao reminded gently.
“Okay! I promise to follow your instructions! When you come, I’ll return to you a fair, fat, and unharmed wife!”
“Naughty girl!”
Luo Tao smiled as he hung up the phone, and his expression gradually returned to normal.
Mo Yan’s trip to Jing City this time was fraught with danger. It was not only because of the Deputy General Manager’s malicious intentions, but also because the Huo family could not find out about Mo Yan’s existence for the time being.
Making a call to his subordinate, Luo Tao gave an order to protect Mo Yan and emphasized that Mo Yan should not have any contact with the other members of the Huo family.
Since Lin Group’s project was still not fully investigated, It was time for him to have a face-to-face chat with young master Lin.
...
When Mo Yan heard this, she could not help but laugh after hanging up the phone.
This caused sister Xu and Li Guoguo to look over frequently. Li Guoguo tugged on Mo Yan’s sleeve and asked, “Mo Yan, why are you so happy?”
“I am?” Mo Yan forced a smile and pretended to be serious.
“Yes, you’re smiling from ear to ear.”
Li Guoguo did not hesitate to expose Mo Yan’s happiness. She whispered to her, “My husband said that after I finish my work, he will come to the Jing City and go back with me.”
“Huh? Your husband will come?” Li Guoguo subconsciously glanced at Mo Yan’s wrist as she spoke.
Mo Yan nodded. Although Luo Tao was supposed to come to protect her, since Luo Tao couldn’t come, she believed that she could take care of herself.
“Mo Yan, your husband is really good to you. He bought you an expensive bracelet and is even coming to pick you up from your business trip.”
Hearing Li Guoguo’s words, Mo Yan smiled but didn’t answer. She wanted the whole world to know how good Luo Tao was, but she also wanted to hide him and keep him for herself.
When Li Guoguo said this, sister Xu deliberately looked at her and frowned.
Mo Yan caught a glimpse of Chen Ya and the other two passing by and stopped talking. They were here to work. It would be bad if Chen Ya caught them.
The company arranged for everyone to stay in a hotel in the city, not far from Lin Group’s building. According to the receptionist, the hotel had received several guests in the past few days. It seemed that the competition for Lin Group’s project was more intense than expected.
