Chapter 801: Who Will Take Over The Huo Family?
Chen Ming updated Huo Changfeng about some company matters before he asked. “Chief Steward, are you going out this afternoon to have lunch with Miss Huo?”
Huo Changfeng glanced at him and nodded in acknowledgement.
A thought suddenly occurred to Chen Ming, so he said, “Are you going to tell Miss Huo more about the family? After all, she is already an adult. Perhaps you can prepare her mentally by telling her a little more about the family.”
Huo Changfeng was signing a doc.u.ment when his hand paused for a couple of seconds before he answered. “There is no hurry.”
Chen Ming did not continue with the subject and thought about the tasks he had completed earlier and said, “I have taken care of everything in the capital, so Miss Huo will have protection detail when she gets there.
“Uh huh. You can come along later,” said Huo Changfeng before he lowered his head and continued working.
Chen Ming looked delighted. “Thanks, Chief Steward.”
Huo Changfeng said nothing.

Huo Changfeng went to the driving school to pick up Huo Yao at midday to have lunch at a family-owned restaurant.
Shortly after they ordered, the kitchen sent the food.
This time, Huo Changfeng was clearly a lot more relaxed than the last time he saw Huo Yao. Also, he had been working on his geniality. Since he had been practicing his smile hard, it did not look as stiff this time around.
Naturally, he only acted this way in front of Huo Yao.
After they were more or less done with lunch, Huo Yao wiped her mouth with a piece of tissue before retrieving a white plastic bottle from her pocket. “Uncle Changfeng, help me pa.s.s this medicine to my uncle.”
Huo Changfeng put down his chopsticks. He coughed uneasily when he saw the sticker of some calcium tablets on the bottle.
He extended his hand to take the bottle without opening it and found that it had a decent weight to it.
Although the bottle was ordinary, its contents were phenomenal.
Huo Changfeng placed the medication in his coat pocket carefully and looked grateful. “Miss Huo, thank you so much.”
Huo Yao nodded. “You’re welcome.”
“Oh yes. Have you heard about the Apothecaries’ a.s.sociation?” asked Huo Changfeng after thinking briefly.
Huo Yao poured herself a cup of tea and took a sip before she nodded. “A little.”
Huo Changfeng contemplated before he continued. “I know someone from the Apothecaries’ a.s.sociation. If you are interested, I can introduce you.”
Since Huo Yao was a doctor and an apothecary, she would probably be interested in the Apothecaries’ a.s.sociation.
“I am not interested.” Huo Yao shook her head and felt that it was a bad idea.
Huo Changfeng was surprised. A lot of people wanted to get into the a.s.sociation. Also, all members of the a.s.sociation had high social status.
“Uh huh. In that case, you can tell me about it when you change your mind,” answered Huo Changfeng.
“Sure,” acknowledged Huo Yao obediently.
“We parted ways in such a hurry that I didn’t have the chance to ask about what faculty you picked,” asked Huo Changfeng as he smiled.
“Biology,” answered Huo Yao candidly.
Huo Changfeng’s temples throbbed when he heard this and breathed heavily. “… Why did you choose Biology?”
Why were all of them into research? Who was going to take over the Huo family’s operations?
“I like it.” Huo Yao lowered her eyes.
Huo Changfeng wanted her to change her mind. “Don’t you think that it is a little dry for a girl to do research? Why don’t you major in something else?”
Such as finance and economics? Otherwise, any other business subject would work as well!
