Chapter 1236 The Huo Family’s Plots (3)
After eating for a while, the little boy said to Gu Qingyao, “Mother, I need to use the toilet!”
There were too many people at the wedding today. Little Mo Yang was still too young, so Gu Qingyao said to Mo Beihan, “I’ll bring him. You take care of things here.”
Lin Dongxu’s wedding!
Everyone in the capital knew that Lin Dongxu was connected to Mo Beihan.
Today was Qin Si’s wedding day. The Qiao family, Gu family, and Mo family would all be present on the wedding day of the Qin family’s daughter. This was the capital’s most powerful organization. Everyone wanted to curry favor with them.
So with Mo Beihan present, there was an especially large number of people who wanted to propose a toast. He had to host them.
Gu Qingyao brought the little fellow to the toilet. When she reached the entrance, she said, “Go in yourself. I’ll go and get some fresh air in the corridor over there. It’s so noisy where your Father is. We’ll get some fresh air before we go back.”
“Um! Okay!”
The little fellow was very obedient. After Gu Qingyao finished speaking, he obediently went into the toilet.
After Gu Qingyao saw him enter the toilet, she went to a corridor at the other end.
It was rather hot today, and she had drunk a few gla.s.ses of wine. She was feeling warm, so she stood there enjoying the breeze.
There were windows in this corridor from which the restaurant’s gardens could be seen. The flowers were blooming now, and the garden was extremely beautiful.
Various brightly colored flowers swayed in the wind. The gentle breeze wafted the fragrance of the flowers towards her. Gu Qingyao stood there. She did not really want to go back to the noisy hall.
Meanwhile, the little fellow emerged from the toilet and washed his hands. He had just reached the door when Huo Tianning appeared.
“Yang Yang!” Huo Tianning smiled in what he thought was a very kindly manner. He beamed brightly at Mo Yang.
Little Mo Yang paused and looked at him. A hint of interest appeared in his eyes.
Why is this idiot looking for me?
“Uncle, are you looking for me?”
Huo Tianning was startled. The child did not recognize him?
That was to be expected. After all, he was a young boy who had only met him once, and so long ago too. It would be more surprising if the child recognized him!
Huo Tianning smiled. “Yang Yang! You don’t remember me? We met in the hotpot restaurant! I’m your mother’s close friend, the one who used to live overseas. Do you remember now?”
Mo Yang c.o.c.ked his little head and began to think.
Huo Tianning smiled and said, “I last saw you when you were out having fun with your Fourth Cousin at the hotpot restaurant. You told me that your mother loves studying gourmet food, and likes the food at Jin Jiang Restaurant. Do you remember now?”
Little Mo Yang’s eyes brightened. “Oh… I remember now. You’re that uncle. Uncle, what are you doing here? What a coincidence!”
The little fellow batted his large eyes, looking very ignorant and innocent!
Look at my large, innocent eyes!
Huo Tianning was not wary of him at all. He smiled and asked, “Where’s your mother? I’m looking for your mother. I’m her friend! I agreed to meet her here, but where is she?”
He thought that he had seen Gu Qingyao bring the child here. But why was the child by himself now?
“Agreed?” Little Fellow looked at Huo Tianning meaningfully. “Uncle, have you met my mother? She hasn’t mentioned you before!”
With his scheme in mind, Huo Tianning said, “I’ve met your mother many times before, without you or your father knowing. Your mother is afraid that your father will be angry, so of course she wouldn’t say anything. Yang Yang! You mustn’t tell your father either! Or your father might get angry. Do you understand?”
