Chapter 1165: Already Met?

Song Zhi had finally gotten Song Ning to see them, but his plans were botched.

Song Zhi was exasperated.

He had called Fu Cheng in the afternoon, briefly mentioning that Huo Yao was a relative of the Song family. When Fu Cheng learned of this, his attitude became slightly better.

Song Zhi was hoping to improve his relationship with Song Ning this evening, but it only became worse instead.

What was he going to say to Fu Cheng?

Song Ning sat with her back straight in the car. She glanced at Huo Yao every now and then wanting to speak, but she did not know where to start. After some time, she asked softly. “Did Song Qi send you the ictures?”

“Uh huh,” acknowledged Huo Yao.

Song Ning tightened her grip slightly. “Don’t you have any questions for me?”

Huo Yao tilted her head sideways and looked at her anxious mother. She pondered for a couple of seconds before she pursed her lips and said, “I must say the Photoshop technology was really bad.”

Song Ning went speechless.

Huo Yao reached her hand out and patted her mother on the shoulder. She consoled Song Ning. “Don’t worry. It is just a matter of time before they pay. I will exact revenge from them on your behalf.”

Song Ning was feeling sad but became better the moment she heard what Huo Yao said. She sniffled slightly before she smiled. “It happened so long ago. Since they no longer mean anything to me, don’t bother wasting your time.”

Huo Yao nodded and stopped talking about the Song family. She raised her head and looked at Chen Ming sitting in the driver’s seat and told him to take them somewhere for dinner.

After she was done, she pondered and asked. “Oh yes. Uncle Ming, is Uncle Changfeng still in the capital?”

Chen Ming did not expect Huo Yao to suddenly bring up the chief steward. He coughed awkwardly before he hurriedly replied. “I don’t think so.”

“I see,” acknowledged Huo Yao disappointedly.

Huo Yao recalled Uncle Changfeng often talking about her parents whenever they were together. She reckoned he must miss them a lot. Since her parents were in town, she thought he might finally get to see them.

The moment Song Ning heard what Huo Yao said, she held Huo Yao’s arm and asked with her face twitching. “You just mentioned Uncle Changfeng. Have you met him already?”

Huo Yao turned to look at her. She noticed something amiss with her mother’s expression. She paused before she nodded.

Song Ning’s mind went blank. She asked. “Was he the one who came looking for you?”

Chen Ming furtively took out his phone and sent a text message when they were at a traffic light.

When he was assigned to be Miss Huo’s chauffeur, Master Jinyan and Madam Ning had told them to avoid showing their faces in front of Miss Huo. They did not want to scare Miss Huo.

Hence, Master Jinyan and Madam Ning did not know that the chief steward had already met Miss Huo.

The chief steward did not want Master Jinyan and Madam Ning to know that they were already on decent terms with Miss Huo.

Now, their cover had unexpectedly gotten blown.

Huo Yao went quiet for a couple of seconds before she finally replied to her mother. “I met Uncle Changfeng during Brother Yulin’s birthday. We had dinner together.”

Song Ning immediately believed Huo Yao. Since Huo Yulin and Huo Changfeng were very close, it made sense for Huo Yulin to celebrate Huo Changfeng’s birthday with him. She asked. “Just dinner?”

Huo Yao nodded with a straight face. “Uh huh.”

Song Ning heaved a sigh of relief. Huo Yulin was a smart man, so he probably did not tell Huo Yao much about the family. However, she could not say the same about others. She asked worriedly. “Did Uncle Changfeng tell you anything else?”
