Raising her head to look at the night view outside the window, Mo Zhu tapped her knees lightly.
A moment later, the screen lit up.
[Sure, thanks.]
After reading the message, Mo Zhu neatly turned off her phone screen and pocketed her phone. She leaned against the backrest and started thinking about the auction.
She didn’t want to participate in the matter between Black Tiger and Huo Xuan. In a place like Beijing that was filled with trouble, it was best to keep a low profile. If someone with ill intentions found out about her other identities, moving around and completing what she wanted to do wouldn’t be as convenient as it was now. She didn’t want to be targeted like Black Tiger.
Xu Huan sent Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu to the Huo family’s mansion. After they got out of the car, they went straight into the house to visit Old Master Huo.
Just as she pushed open the bedroom door, she saw Huo Tao and Chen Man giving Old Master Huo medicine.
Upon hearing that something had happened to Old Master Huo, the two of them hurriedly put down the work they were doing and rushed over. They had just arrived a little before Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu had returned.
Old Master Huo was lying in bed, holding Chen Man’s hand and chatting with her. When he saw Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu walk in, he waved at them and said, “Xuan’er and Xiao Zhu are here. Come over quickly. Come over and chat with me.”
After the old man finished speaking, Chen Man turned around and saw the two of them. She stood up and gave her seat to Mo Zhu. She smiled happily and said, “Xiao Zhu has been busy the entire day. She must be exhausted. Quickly sit here and chat with grandpa.”
Seeing this happy family scene, an unknown emotion welled up in Mo Zhu’s heart and she recalled her grandmother, who was still lying on the hospital bed. She nodded obediently, took Old Master Huo’s hand and sat by the bed.
Although Old Master Huo was not very energetic now, when he saw that his children and grandchildren were all here, he instantly felt better. “Xiao Zhu, I heard that you cured Xuan’er’s strange illness?”
Mo Zhu nodded. She knew that Old Master Huo truly doted on Huo Xuan, so she didn’t want to deliberately hide the fact that she knew medicine from him.
“I really didn’t expect this. Xiao Zhu is so capable at such a young age. Xuan’er is lucky to be with you.” Old Master Huo laughed kindly. The more he looked at Mo Zhu, the more satisfied he was with his granddaughter-in-law.
Previously, he had always heard about Mo Zhu from Chen Man. Now that he was seeing her in person, Old Master Huo felt that those praises were really not groundless.
After saying this, Old Master Huo seemed to have recalled something. He pinched the space between his eyebrows and reminded Mo Zhu worriedly, “Good child, I know that you’re a kind child, but Beijing is filled with lots of dangers. Xuan’er is born in the Huo family and you’re his fiancée. It’s best not to publicize the fact that you know medicine. It’s best to keep a low profile.”
Mo Zhu understood the old master’s painstaking effort. She held his hand and replied gently, “Don’t worry, grandpa. I’ll be more careful.”
After a pause, Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and looked at Huo Xuan from the corner of her eye. Her tone immediately rose. “In addition, isn’t Huo Xuan still protecting me? You know his ability very well.”
“Haha, the girl is right.”
Mo Zhu’s words made Old Master Huo laugh loudly. Even the built up unhappiness in his heart dissipated a lot.
Although the news that Mo Zhu knew medicine might bring her danger, if someone wanted to harm her, they had to see if they had the ability to go against the Huo family.
After roaming the business world for so many years, Old Master Huo had some ability to read people. Through the interaction he had with Mo Zhu for that one day, he understood that this young girl in front of him was not as simple as she looked. Instead, she was very shrewd.
Speaking of medicine, Huo Tao, who had been standing at the side silently, suddenly reminded him, “Xuan’er, your second uncle and sixth aunt will be attending the Gao family’s auction the day after tomorrow..”
