Chapter 497

However, she still tapped on WeChat to check.

Upon seeing the photo, a dark glint flashed in the depths of Huo Jingyan's eyes.

Working together with Sheng An, Jiang Nannan seemed very happy, and they appeared to have plenty of topics to chat about.

Huo Jingyan's expression turned somber at once.

Ye Yaoguang: 【President Huo, I just went to the campus to chase stars and happened to see Mrs. Huo. Why did she go to be a celebrity's assistant? I have liked this celebrity for many years.】

Huo Jingyan did not reply and closed WeChat.

Ye Yaoguang waited for a moment, but did not see Huo Jingyan reply to her.

Unwilling to give up, she waited for another half hour, but there was still no reply; he was too heartless! For the past two days, no matter what she said, he would not reply. How could a person be so cold and heartless after getting out of bed?

Almost no one could do that, right?

And it was all because of a Jiang Nannan who was far inferior to her!

Ye Yaoguang took a deep breath.

Let her completely withdraw from his life?

Absolutely impossible!

——

When Jiang Nannan returned home from work in the evening, she saw Huo Jingyan.

Huo Jingyan had come home every day for the past two days, which made Jiang Nannan truly feel a bit unaccustomed.

"You..."

"I've come home every day for the past two days, and you're not used to it?" Huo Jingyan asked with a smile.

Her heart panicked for a brief moment; she had been gradually becoming calmer over the past two days, but if the person before her found out about the uncontrollable absurdity of the previous period...

Jiang Nannan nodded somewhat blankly, "Yeah, I've gotten used to you going on business trips often lately, not seeing you twice a month. As a result, you've come home every day for the past two days; we've met more times than in the last two months combined."

She was really a bit unaccustomed to it!

"It's my fault," Huo Jingyan smiled.

Jiang Nannan nodded immediately: "Of course it's your fault. You have no idea how I spent these past two months; it was boring to the extreme, okay? Huh? Why do I smell chicken soup? It seems like my mom's handiwork."

She was too familiar with this scent; no one else could make the flavor her mom made.

She was sensitive enough to judge whether it was her mom's handiwork just by the scent.

As soon as her voice fell, she saw her mom walking out of the kitchen with the soup in her hands.

Jiang Nannan widened her eyes, "Mom? Why are you here?"

"I haven't seen you much in these two months, so Mom missed you, didn't I? What, you don't welcome me?" Zhao Li rolled her eyes at Jiang Nannan. This daughter of hers was truly worrying, but fortunately, she had a good son-in-law.

"Of course I welcome you! I was just thinking about going home these two days to see you and Dad. How could you bear to leave Dad at home by himself to come see me? Why didn't you bring Dad along?" Jiang Nannan immediately coaxed Ms. Zhao with sweet words.

Zhao Li glanced at Huo Jingyan and then said, "Your dad made an appointment to go fishing and didn't have time to come. What have you been doing? You've almost been tanned into a little black ball."

"Being a bit tan is healthy; it's not like I've been tanned into a ball, right?" Jiang Nannan defended herself.

Zhao Li sighed inwardly. To be a perfectly good Mrs. Huo and not do it, but instead go be a celebrity's assistant—who would believe such a thing if it were told?

After sitting down and eating only a few bites, Zhao Li suddenly spoke: "I didn't see you when I arrived earlier, so I asked Jingyan, and he said you went to work? Being an assistant for a celebrity?"

Jiang Nannan's heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to be nonchalant, "Yeah, this job is very interesting; I quite like it."

Huo Jingyan's gaze turned cold imperceptibly.

"Nonsense! Go quit the job. Your top priority now is to have a child; what are you doing being a celebrity assistant? Listen to Mom, stop going to work for now. If you're really bored, Jingyan said you could open a coffee shop or a flower shop. The time is flexible and it's easy, which is very suitable for you to prepare for pregnancy." Zhao Li put on a stern face.

Jiang Nannan guessed that Huo Jingyan must have brought her mom here; he agreed on the surface, but in reality, he still didn't want her to go to work.

She took a deep breath, put down her chopsticks, and stated her position very firmly, "I'm still young and not in a hurry to have children. Mom, I also need to have my own pursuits and life. What I'm doing now is what I love, and what you're demanding is not what I want."
