Huo Yao raised her hand and patted Meng Jue on the shoulder before she said candidly, "Don't worry. Papa has already forgiven you."
Since she was rather tall for a woman, she looked like a genial elder when she spoke in this tone with a kind smile on her face.
Meng Jue went speechless.
"I'm going." Huo Yao waved and entered the school.
Meng Jue stood where he was until she was completely out of sight before he finally veered his eyes.
She was clearly still the same. This meant he was imagining things earlier.
Meng Jue pulled his curly hair in annoyance. He suddenly felt relieved that he had stopped mid-sentence. Otherwise, she might have blacklisted him again!
Jie Xi was waiting for Meng Jue by the roadside. When he got closer, Jie Xi opened the car door and asked. "Are you going to the hotel? The regional managers are ready for the video conference."
