"Brother, sister-in-law's foot should be fine, right?"
Huo Nanchen only glanced at Huo Zijun as he followed him like a silly husky. "Of course it will be fine."
"That's good, that's good."
Gu Ruochu noticed that there were several people in the living room. Most of them looked at Huo Nanchen and they had some wild hairstyles.
Mrs. Huo felt gratified and happy when she saw that the couple seemed to be showing more concern for each other. At the same time, she was even more certain that her catalyst would bring even better changes for the two.
"Since Ruochu isn't feeling well, you should go upstairs and rest." Mrs. Huo immediately looked at Huo Zijun and he understood her meaning.
Huo Zirui saw the interaction between them and stood up indifferently. "I'll go and receive my friends. You guys do as you please."
Huo Zijun could not wait for Huo Zirui to leave. He had been keeping an eye on Gu Ruochu and his brother. When he saw that Huo Nanchen had carried his sister-in-law upstairs, he began to make plans in his heart.
Of course, he would not make it too obvious if he wanted to drug him.
When it was time for dinner, he would open a bottle of red wine. He would not drug the red wine. Instead, he would place the drug in the glass and let him pour the wine for himself.
Huo Zijun was his biological younger brother. His brother would never suspect him.
Gu Ruochu rested upstairs and was watching a movie in her room.
Huo Nanchen had returned to the office not long after he had put her down to rest. It was good that he had left. Otherwise, she would not know how to deal with him.
She needed time to slowly sort out the recent changes in her emotions.
So far, Gu Ruochu had come into contact with several film directors in her class and had watched some excellent films. Her mind was filled with many fantasies.
Professor Shen Bihua had said that every character in her films had their own unique emotions and the details were very touching.
Gu Ruochu was busy watching the films.
Before she knew it, it was time for dinner. Gu Ruochu heard someone calling her and went downstairs.
"Oh my, Ruochu, why are you so late? You must be starving. Come and eat."
Zhou Yunxi sat at the dining table and her gentle voice rang out, causing Gu Ruochu to think that something was wrong with her ears.
She had never been kind to her before.
Huo Nanchen sat at the table and had deliberately reserved a seat for her.
When he saw Gu Ruochu come down, his deep eyes stared straight at her.
Zhou Yunxi also had an empty seat next to her. She hoped that Gu Ruochu would sit next to her. It would be best if she did not sit next to Huo Nanchen.
Gu Ruochu glanced at Gu Yanwei who was sitting quietly like a chicken. A hint of doubt appeared in her eyes.
Why was the mother and daughter pair acting so strangely?
"Mother."
Gu Ruochu called out to Mrs. Huo.
Mrs. Huo wiped her mouth with a napkin and smiled. "Sit down and eat."
Gu Ruochu ignored Zhou Yunxi's friendly gesture and sat down next to Huo Nanchen.
The corners of his lips curled into a smile.
"In the future, the in-laws must visit the Huo family more often. I admire Yanwei's talent. Don't worry. As long as Yanwei does her job well, I will definitely treat her well."
"Thanks... you're too kind."
Zhou Yunxi had never dealt with such a situation before. She stuttered a little as she spoke, but Gu Yanwei quickly tried to smooth things over.
Huo Zhenggang did not mind. He was only trying to win over their hearts.
If it were not for Huo Zhenggang, Zhou Yunxi and her daughter would never have visited the Huo family again.
To Huo Zhenggang, a woman's quarrel was a small matter. There was no need to hold grudges.
"It's rare to be happy these days. Why don't we drink?" Huo Zijun's eyes lit up like crescent moons as he spoke.
