Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Huo Jinyun breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to bring up the company, the old master turned and went upstairs to his study.

Huo Jinyun followed, but the door to the study was already closed.

She stood at the door, knocking, but there was no response from inside.

After standing for a while, she returned to the living room and looked at Aunt Shen in the old house, ”How has Grandpa been these past few days?”

Aunt Shen looked at Huo Jinyun, ”Miss, the old master has been holding a grudge these past few days, but perhaps he will feel better in a few days.”

Huo Jinyun nodded, ”Then I’ll be going now. I’ll come to see Grandpa another day.”

Aunt Shen saw Huo Jinyun out.

Huo Jinyun thought for a moment, fearing that the old master might find out about Jizhou and Che Huan’s issue, and looked at Butler Liu after getting into the car, giving him a few instructions before saying, ”Let’s go back to the Gu Family.”

In the car, she made a phone call to Huo Jinnan, ”Anan, about the child Jizhou... Ah, I’m really confused right now, Grandpa is still angry, and I have no idea what to do. How do you think we should handle this matter?”

Huo Jinnan was admiring the black and white photos he had developed himself, ”Suspend the project, issue a public apology, and for the home buyers and shop purchasers, full refunds. I believe that’s the best way to salvage Gu Yuan’s reputation.”

”But... Anan, this project had an investment of several billion yuan. If we refund, the loss will be more than just this amount.”

”...” Huo Jinnan remained silent, lighting a cigarette.

Not hearing his voice for a long time, Huo Jinyun softly broke the silence, ”Anan, because of that matter five years ago, you’ve grown distant from me.”

”...”

Huo Jinnan remained silent, his eyes darkening.

Huo Jinyun took a deep breath, ”Anan, Yunqing...”

Before she could finish, the call was disconnected!

The breath Huo Jinyun had just swallowed rushed back to her throat. She turned her head to look out the window and took a difficult breath, throwing her phone to the side.

...

Huo Jinnan gathered the photos together and looked at Huo Bei.

Huo Bei stepped forward, ”Sir, the old master hasn’t intervened for now.”

A strange black gleam flashed in Huo Jinnan’s eyes, ”What about Jizhou?”

Huo Bei continued, ”He went to find Miss Che today, and Miss Che slapped him.”

Huo Jinnan glanced sideways at Huo Bei.

Huo Bei lowered his head, not wanting to say it, but continued, ”Miss went to find Miss Che as well; they probably had a disagreement and she ended up slapping Miss Che.”

The darkness in Huo Jinnan’s eyes deepened a few shades as he took a drag from his cigarette, then lowered his gaze to flick the ash into the ashtray.

Huo Bei stood by, silent.

After a while, Huo Jinnan looked at Huo Bei, ”Have Yu Zimu and Shen You post some job advertisements, and have the companies below do the same.”

Job advertisements?

Soon, Huo Bei realized—was the sir providing an employment opportunity for Miss Che?

If no one helped her, Miss Che would probably not be able to find any job in Hongcheng.

As far as he knew, over the years, Miss Che had sent out enough resumes to fill a box, but all to no avail and without a single response.

Huo Jinnan slightly lifted his gaze, ”Anything else?”

Remembering the previous instructions from the sir, Huo Bei continued, ”Miss Che has been looking for the group leader these past few days, posting quite a lot of lost dog notices, and she seems very anxious.”

He handed a torn notice to Huo Jinnan.

Huo Jinnan took it, glanced at it, and saw that in addition to the text description, a rough sketch of the group leader was drawn, not a bad likeness, ”Have they all been cleared?”
