Chapter 81: Huo Xiaoxiao’s Comeback (2)

“Hmm?”

“I want to spend two more days with Daddy at home.”

“Little brat, you don’t want to be with Grandpa?”

Huo Xiaoxiao seemed puzzled. “Daddy said that Grandpa wanted to send me to kindergarten. Grandpa… don’t want to play with Xiaoxiao?”

Hearing Huo Xiaoxiao’s words, Old Master Huo looked at Huo Suicheng and then put the spoon on the table.

“Humph!”

“…” Huo Suicheng also put down the bread in his hand, as he already felt full just hearing his daughter’s words. He got up and said, “I’m full. The company has a lot of things, so I’ll leave first.”

After speaking, he got up and left in a hurry.

“Grandpa, Daddy…”

“Xiaoxiao, don’t listen to your daddy’s nonsense. It’s him who wants to send you to kindergarten! How can your grandpa bear to send you there? Grandpa wants you to stay with him for a few more days.”

Huo Xiaoxiao blinked and nodded.

Huo Group, President’s Office.

Since there might be ancient tombs buried under Luming Mountain, the project had to be suspended before the archaeological expert team verified it.

However, as the project was already delayed for a day, there would be a huge investment loss if it got delayed anymore.

This was a major problem, and Yi Group’s side didn’t dare to take risks either. So, Yi Yang came to Huo Group to meet with Huo Suicheng early in the morning.

“The archaeological expert group hasn’t given a reply yet, but I have inside information. There is likely a tomb underneath.”

“A tomb…” Yi Yang frowned. “How can there be a tomb?”

“I don’t know. But if you really decide to dig while protecting it, the fastest time can be calculated in years.”

Yi Yang shook his head. “Can’t wait that long.”

Huo Suicheng knitted his eyebrows. “Even if the archaeological team gives a green signal, I’m afraid that the higher-ups have already decided to protect the cultural relics. Then, this project cannot be started again.”

Yi Yang raised his eyes to look at him.

“What do you think?”

Huo Suicheng rubbed his fingertips unconsciously, his eyes unconsciously exuding the aura of a hunter.

Before he could speak, though, there was a knock on the door.

“Come In.”

After getting permission, the assistant pushed the door in and said, “Mr. Huo, the archaeological team has arrived at the company and is now waiting for you in the lounge.”

Huo Suicheng raised his eyebrows. “I see. You go out first.”

“Okay.”

“The members of the expert group are here. I guess the survey results are out. If they really decide to protect the ancient tomb, what are you going to do?”

Huo Suicheng narrowed his eyes. “I can wait for a bit, but this project cannot be terminated.”

“You don’t mean to…”

Huo Suicheng just stared at him.

Yi Yang understood what he meant.

“Think about it; this is a big risk.”

“I understand.” Huo Suicheng’s face was stern as he stood up. “Let’s go and meet the archaeologists.”

Perhaps it was because the air-conditioning in the office was not enough or it was a little stuffy, Huo Suicheng took off his suit jacket, threw it on the sofa, and walked towards the lounge with Yi Yang.

Several assistants outside the door accompanied Huo Suicheng behind.

“…Mr. Huo.”

Huo Suicheng’s footsteps did not stop. “What’s the matter?”

Several assistants set their eyes on his back, fidgeting with their words.

“You… on your back…”

Huo Suicheng tilted his head and frowned slightly. “What the hell is going on?”

Yi Yang stepped behind Huo Suicheng and saw the big turtle painted on the back of his shirt. His serious face was instantly torn apart, and he couldn’t help but laugh.

“Huo’er… your daughter, good drawing.”

Huo Suicheng didn’t know why they were acting weirdly, but when he passed the conference room’s glass mirror, he saw the big turtle painted on his back.

“…” Huo Suicheng thought of Huo Xiaoxiao’s innocent hospitality in the morning and immediately understood what was going on. His eyes scanned over the several people present, who all bowed their heads and smiled.

He turned and walked back without saying a word, the turtle on his white shirt coming to life.

“Brother Huo, what about the meeting?”

Huo Suicheng waved his hand and threw down a word, “Wait!”
