Hearing the commotion at the door, Huo Yichen brought the dishes that had just been cooked to the table. He turned around and looked at Murong Qiao standing at the door, then smiled.
“Welcome back.”
As soon as he said this, Murong Qiao felt that if she couldn’t take the initiative to hug the other party, she’d be a heinous sinner.
Unfortunately, in the next second, she regretted it.
The wolf, who had been quietly waiting for its prey to come knocking on its door, finally seized the opportunity and firmly held the escaping rabbit in its arms, not giving the other party any room to breathe.
When it saw the rabbit’s red face, the fierce wolf finally relaxed its grip reluctantly.
“We’ve kissed so many times. Why haven’t you learned how to breathe?” Huo Yichen let go of her in amus.e.m.e.nt. Looking at Murong Qiao’s flushed face, he couldn’t help but raise his finger and rub her nose.
Murong Qiao shrank away from his arms. “Who’s like you?”
“You’ve been out for so many days. Aren’t you going to let me collect some interest?” Huo Yichen asked.
Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows. This time, she did not refute Huo Yichen. Instead, she touched the tip of her nose guiltily.
Who asked a certain someone to hungrily press against her every day to discuss the true meaning of life?
“Alright, let’s get ready to eat.” Huo Yichen was just teasing her.
After some intimacy, Huo Yichen went to the kitchen to take some dishes.
Murong Qiao relaxed because of this and helped.
“It smells so good.” Murong Qiao picked up a piece of meat and bit it.
The meat had clearly been carefully stewed by someone. After being simmered under low temperature for a long time, the bones had become soft enough to be eaten.
The fragrance of the meat lingered in her mouth for a long time. Coupled with the refreshing beancurd, Murong Qiao would not get sick of one flavor. It was so tasty that she couldn’t help but squint her eyes.
Seeing this, Huo Yichen picked up another piece for her. “Why didn’t you like it as much when I brought you to eat steak previously?”
“How can that be compared to what my boyfriend made himself?” Murong Qiao replied.
She picked up the piece of meat Huo Yichen had given her with her chopsticks and waved it in front of his eyes as if she was showing off.
This was made by Ah Chen. It was a unique feeding service only for her.
As Murong Qiao ate the meat, her gaze shifted to Huo Yichen from time to time.
Huo Yichen had been focused on eating. At this moment, he was sitting at the dining table without even taking off his ap.r.o.n.
The black ap.r.o.n itself looked monotonous, but with Huo Yichen’s face, it immediately made people feel that no matter what food he cooked, they would have the desire to eat.
Warm yellow light shone down from above. The dark night outside made the man’s face look even gentler. When he didn’t even speak and ate quietly, Murong Qiao felt that the other party was extremely gentle.
With a thought, she suddenly could not help but pull the other party’s free hand.
“Huh?” Huo Yichen sensed the other party’s movements and naturally held it back. Then, he stopped eating and turned to look at her.
Seeing his actions, Murong Qiao could not help but laugh again.
“I feel that you’re not the same person as you were in high school,” she suddenly said.
At that time, Huo Yichen was extremely cold. Even Murong Qiao did not expect the two of them to have such an intimate relationship.
“High school?” Huo Yichen raised his eyebrows and asked, “Then which me do you like?”
This was a dangerous question.
“Nonsense, I like all sides of you, okay!” Murong Qiao hurriedly turned the tide.
She did not want to take leave the next day and not be able to go to the company.
“Tell me, you’re bluffing, right?” Huo Yichen didn’t intend to let her off.
Murong Qiao said seriously, “No, really!”
Unfortunately, her attempt to explain herself was crushed by a scorching heat.
The young man who looked like a pine tree back then had long grown into a towering tree.

The night was long.
The next morning, as the sunlight penetrated the thick curtain with extreme difficulty, they reached an agreement with the alarm clock and woke up on the bed together. It was already ten in the morning.
There was an unknown object on the huge double bed. As the alarm sounded, a hand stretched out from the gap between the blanket and the bed. It fumbled around randomly before pressing the alarm off angrily.
“Wu—”
Murong Qiao couldn’t help but stretch her body. Her body vaguely reacted with a sore feeling, causing her to return to some rationality.
She was the only one on the bed. When Murong Qiao slowly got up, she saw a note with elegant handwriting on the bedside table.
[I’m going to the office. Breakfast is in the kitchen. I’ve already told Jiang Chi. If the alarm wakes you up on time, the porridge will be at the right temperature.] What did not match this handwriting was a very beautiful heart drawn at the end.
It was obvious that the person who wrote was very serious. The heart painting was a little like an emoji, but it was this emotion that made Murong Qiao smile.
Forget it, she would forgive him for being too much last night.
Murong Qiao got up and washed up. Then, he went to the kitchen and saw the glutinous rice porridge that Huo Yichen had already set a time for.
There was some black rice added in, and it tasted sweet, making the last trace of irritation from waking up in the morning disappear.
While eating breakfast, Murong Qiao sent a message to Huo Yichen. Then, she saw that some of the reports Jiang Chi had sent her this morning were piled up in the chat box.
Most of them were doc.u.ments and reports, as well as a plan.
[In addition, many artists from the company have received awards and nominations. You also need to make a trip to the event location for the award ceremony.] Jiang Chi then gave her a brand new itinerary.
Awards…
Murong Qiao calculated in her heart. It seemed like the last award ceremony was last year.
It could only be said that a day apart was like three autumns. This year’s CG development was in full swing. It was no longer the time when only a few artistes could be used.
Just looking at the name list given by Jiang Chi, there were more than ten people who wanted to go.
[I’ll go to the company later.] Murong Qiao replied.
While typing, Murong Qiao suddenly remembered that after she went back last night, she had never asked Huo Yichen about the company’s news.
Tsk, she had been fooled by the other party.
Thinking about how her attention had been diverted last night, Murong Qiao shook her head helplessly. In the end, she could only remember this matter and pay attention to it today.
When he received the news that Murong Qiao had woken up, Huo Yichen was in the Huo Corporation’s office talking to the project manager he had spoken to yesterday.
“Regarding what happened yesterday, we’ve already investigated clearly. There’s a problem with the quality test of the equipment this time. Two of the key components have clearly been replaced.” The project person-in-charge raised his conclusion.
However, when these words came out of his mouth, the project manager broke out in a cold sweat without Huo Yichen saying anything.
Saying that there was a problem with the quality check, the project manager could feel that his head was on the line for a moment.
“We discovered through the surveillance cameras that it was Director w.a.n.g’s people who secretly swapped the parts of this batch of equipment…” The person-in-charge’s voice became softer and softer.
Huo Yichen narrowed his eyes and looked at the information in his hand. It was a photo of a middle-aged man’s face that had been corroded by alcohol..
