Chapter 56: Trouble Choosing Where To Spend Her Weekend (3)

“Yes, we have a lot of people, and we can also play games. It is much more fun than you with him.” Lu Jingyi chimned in to help

“Xiaoxiao, you can go to Yi Qian’s house with us. We can barbeque and grill fish. We can also teach you how to swim.”

Zhouzhou could only use the amusement park to convince Huo Xiaoxiao.

“Xiaoxiao, my family”s amusement park, there are no people, only the two of us to play ; we can play what we want to play, no need to line up!”

“Hey, we’ve also never lined up at the amusement park before.”

“Yeah, Yeah.”

“Xiaoxiao, you play with us. we will give you delicious food.”

Zhouzhou was outmatched four to one, inevitably he felt a little anxious, “Xiaoxiao, my house is really fun, will you come to play? I really hope you can come and play with me.”

Yi Qian not to be outdone, “Xiaoxiao is going to play with me this weekend! I asked her first!”

“You asked her first but Xiao Xiao didn’t promise you anything!”

“Okay. stop arguing!” Huo Xiaoxiao’s brain was about to explode, “I have to ask my dad first, I don’t know if I will be able to go out.”

“Then… Then tonight I will ask my dad to call your father, okay?”

“I will call too!”

“I will definitely call first!”

“I call first!”

Their argument was furious and almost started a fight.

Huo Xiaoxiao felt a migraine starting.

Yi Qian and Zhouzhou were really rowdy when they were together. It seems that there won’t be a quiet moment in the future.

——

Huo Suicheng had just solved a mess, it has been more than half a month since the Luming Mountain project was officially launched. Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner. There was no major issue which had propped up. He who had been watching over the project was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

After finally deciding to leave from work early, as soon as his foot stepped out of the office, he received a call from Lu Li Xing.

He and Lu Lixing had exchanged contact during their meeting in kindergarten. Huo Suicheng was quite surprised when he suddenly called.

“Hello President Huo, I am Lu Lixing. We had met in  kindergarten some time back.”

“President Lu? Did something happen?”

“It’s nothing big, but my son wants to invite your daughter to play at our house this weekend.” Lu Lixing smiled,, “Don’t get me wrong, just invite your daughter to come and play.” he added with a defeated tone.

Shopping malls generally use various excuses to expand contacts, and various social interactions are only for the exchange of business cards and resources.

Huo Suicheng stood in front of the lift. “Thank you President Lu for your kindness, but it’s an invitation to Xiaoxiao,  I have to go home and ask her, I can’t make a decision for her.” he replied.

“Okay, I  await the good news.”

When the phone hung up, Huo Suicheng stepped into the lift, but his thoughts were about Lu Lixing calling him just now.

Invite Xiaoxiao? Lu Xingchen’s invitation?

When the lift reached the ground, Huo Suicheng had already decided that Huo Xiaoxiao would stay at home this weekend.

“Do I have plans for this weekend?”

The assistant next to him quickly took out his mobile phone and flipped through the log, “You have a meeting at 2 o’clock in the afternoon this weekend, then another meeting at QianLong club in the evening after that.”

“Can you push it?”

“I am afraid that won’t be possible.”

Huo Suicheng pondered for a moment, “I understand.”

Ding—

The lift doors opened.

As soon as Huo Suicheng stepped out of the lift, his phone rang again.

“President Huo, it’s me, Yi Yang, do you have time this weekend?”

Huo Suicheng raised his eyebrows, “I’m busy, what is it, did something happen?”

“It’s nothing big, I want to invite you over this weekend, since you don’t have the time, does your daughter have time?”

” Get to the point.”

Yi Yang laughed, “My son wants to invite your daughter to play.”

“Invite my daughter?”

“Didn’t Yi Qian stay at your house for two days last time…”

Huo Suicheng interrupted him, “You don’t need to thank me, I will ask Xiaoxiao when I reach home and will reply her answer later.”

“Okay, then I will wait for your call.”

After the phone was hung up, Huo Suicheng walked outside. The two consecutive calls made him frown.

Seeing that Huo Suicheng was standing outside the car for a few minutes, the assistant asked, “President Huo? Is there something wrong?”

Huo Suicheng shook his head and got into the car.

It is actually quite natural for a child to invite classmates to play at home, but after seeing the two fight in the kindergarten last time, Huo Suicheng didn’t think it was something normal.

Huo Suicheng sneered when he remembered how the two  brats saying, “I want to marry Xiao Xiao.”

Dreaming in the broad daylight?

His car slowly drove into the Huo Mansion. The moment he got off the car, a cold wind blew, blowing the leaves all over the garden.

Huo Suicheng raised his head and glanced at the direction of the third floor. The balcony glass door was wide open,  the cold wind poured in, floating  the curtains.

He walked into the living room and found Aunt Zhao, “Auntie Zhao, I just saw the window in  Xiaoxiao’s room open. The temperature has gone down quite a lot recently, Please be careful, don’t open the window when Xiaoxiao is at home.”

“Okay, I will close it now.”

“Where is Xiaoxiao?”

“In the Old master’s room upstairs, talking with him.”

Huo Suicheng nodded and walked upstairs.

Before reaching the third floor, he heard Huo Xiaoxiao’s childish voice in  his father’s room on the third floor. It sounded like she was reading a fairy tale.

When he walked to the door, he heard Huo Xiaoxiao say: “Grandpa, the story is over, are you feeling better? Does your head still hurt?”

“No, its fine now.”

“Grandpa, let me give you a massage.”

“You know how to massage?”

“Yes! I learned it from the teacher, and the teacher said that massage will make grandpa feel comfortable.”

“Okay, then give grandpa a massage.”

The sound in the room quieted down.

“Grandpa, is this ok?”

Huo Suicheng opened the door and walked in.

Inside  the room, Huo Xiaoxiao was kneeling beside Grandpa Huo’s bed, and was stretching her hands to massage his head.

“Daddy you’re back?”

“Yes.” Huo Suicheng sat on the side of the bed, “The weather has been bad recently, pay more attention to your health.”

Old master Huo smiled “It is nothing serious, old problems, and the weather changes makes the body uncomfortable. But luckily there is a small kid who massages grandpa’s head and grandpa feels much better because of that.”

“Then I will massage grandpa everyday!”

“Okay!”

Huo Suicheng watched her massage and didn’t say anything. She massaged him for a while, then the old man grabbed her both hands, “Okay, grandpa feels a lot better now.” indicating her to stop.

After he said that, he looked at Huo Suicheng, “What’s wrong?”

“It is nothing big, it is about Xiaoxiao.”

“Me?” Huo Xiaoxiao exclaimed as she got off the bed.

“Today I received two calls, one was from Lu Xingchen and his father, saying that he would like to invite you to their house on the weekend, and the other was from Yi Qian’s father, who also invited you to his house on the weekend. Both had called to invite you, daddy can’t make the decision for you, who one do you want to meet up with?”

“They really called?”

Huo Suicheng raised his eyebrows, “You were expecting them to call?”

Huo Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, she actually wanted to go out to meet them, but suddenly she felt like staying at home for the weekend.

If she goes to Yi Qian’s house,those two brats will fight on Monday since the two of them don’t like each other.

If I go to Zhouzhou house… but Yi Qian invited her first.

Thinking about it, I don’t know what to do.

Huo Xiaoxiao’s only hope was her father, “Daddy, can I go out on the weekend?”

“Did daddy tie your legs or lock your door or stop you from going out?”

“…” At least pretend, to be a kind father right now.

Huo Suicheng didn’t seem to care, “If you decide where to go, daddy will call them back.”

“Daddy!”

“What happened?”

“If I go to Zhouzhou’s house, Yi Qian will be unhappy. If I go to Yi Qian’s house, Zhouzhou will be unhappy, you tell me, what should I do?”

“Why don’t you go to Zhouzhou’s house on Saturday and Yi Qian’s house on Sunday, that way both of them won’t be angry, what do you think?” Huo Suicheng suggested.

Huo Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up and thought that this idea was really great!

It was unexpected that her dad would be so helpful.

What a surprise!

“Wow, it seems to be …”

Huo Suicheng’s eyes opened, “ a great idea.”

“…”

“Is it not enough to stay at home with grandpa on weekends. Is it not enough to meet at school five days a week? Go out and play on weekends. Even if the weather is good, what should I do if you always run out and get sick because of the cold weather recently?”

Old master Huo looked at him disapprovingly, “She wants to go out to play, so why did you say that to her.”

“Dad, don’t worry, don’t you play enough during kindergarten all day long, and you don’t want to spend more time at home on weekends. Is it because the family has issues or you restless? If you don’t know where to go, then stay at home.”

Huo Xiaoxiao secretly gave her father a strange look.

If you don’t want me to go, just say it, don’t try to spin it in circles. Did you have to say it so rudely?

“Don’t go then.”

Old master Huo saw Huo Xiaoxiao’s unhappy  face, “Okay, let her go, what will she do at home anyways? Won’t she get tired of staying at home every day? I think it is good to go out and have fun and make some more friends once in a while.”

“Huo Xiaoxiao.” Huo Suicheng waited for her answer.

Where did Huo Xiaoxiao want to go, “Grandpa, I am not going, I want to stay with you at home!” she immediately replied.

“Okay, grandpa will tell you a story this weekend.”

Huo Suicheng got up, “Dad, have a good rest, I have something to do, so I will be busy.”

“Go ahead.”

Huo Suicheng left the room and called Yi Yang and Lu Lixing back. Huo Xiaoxiao stood in the corridor, eavesdropping on her daddy’s call.

“Sorry, I just asked Xiaoxiao about the weekend, she said she wants to stay with her grandpa at home.”

“…No problem… well, goodbye.”

“Sorry, I asked Xiaoxiao about the weekend. She said that she wants to stay with her grandpa at home.”

“… No problem… well, goodbye.”

" "

Two phone calls with the same reply.

Huo Xiaoxiao sighed, she actually wanted to go.

It was actually possible to go with Zhouzhou on saturday and Yi Qian on Sunday.
