Chu Xihang did not force it, smiled and nodded, then said: "Alright, I'll wait for you in the car."

"Yes, I will be back soon."

Lin Feifei could not help but heave a sigh of relief, she waved goodbye to Chu Xihang and went upstairs.

However, she didn't know that at this moment, Huo Minglang, who she thought should be at the company right now, was standing at the window upstairs with a dark expression.

Lin Feifei went up the stairs and opened the door. Aunt Lin was sitting on the sofa watching television, while Huo Minglang was sitting by the side with a cold expression.

Seeing that Huo Minglang had not gone to work, Lin Feifei's face immediately changed. She forced a smile and said to the Aunt Lin, "Mom, I'm back."

When Aunt Lin saw that Lin Feifei had finally returned, she immediately scolded him with a straight face: "Where did you go last night? Do you know how worried and anxious your father, Iti Van and I are? Especially Iti Van, this child has been searching everywhere for you yesterday and today.

Lin Feifei stood far away from him at the door, maintaining a safe distance from him, she explained the excuse she had thought of on Chu Xihang's car, "Mom, yesterday, when we were about to close up, the CEO sent me to go to the city to represent him and discuss a plan with someone. So, I didn't have the time to come back, and I haven't even developed that area yet, so I haven't been able to get a good signal, and I haven't been able to make a call to all of you.

The Aunt Lin was skeptical, "Really?"

"Of course, Mom. You know I never lie."

Lin Feifei braced herself and nodded seriously. This was the first time she lied in front of her parents. She did not expect her words to be so smooth, to the point that Lin Feifei started to admire herself.

Huo Minglang deeply furrowed his brows after hearing this, he couldn't tell if Lin Feifei's explanation was real or fake. Although he was the business manager of the Zhao Group, he had never personally done anything related to those development plans, because he was just too important.

But just now, he clearly saw that man at the window again. Even if Lin Feifei really went to the outer city, the first person she would see when she returned was not him nor Aunt Lin, but the man downstairs.

Thinking of this, Huo Minglang's face became even uglier.

The CEO took it very seriously. As his Chief Secretary, naturally, I have to take responsibility for the most important thing, so in order for me to work well with him, the CEO rented a room for me to focus on my work and complete this project. Therefore, I decided to move out this afternoon.

"So sudden?"

Aunt Lin stood up in shock.

Huo Minglang's face had already turned completely ashen after hearing what Lin Feifei had said. With a cold and steady voice, he said, "What kind of project is so important to you that it actually requires you to move out. No, if I do not agree, you are not allowed to move out."

Regardless if Lin Feifei was really moving out for work or not, Huo Minglang would not allow it, because he knew that as long as Lin Feifei walked out of this place today, she would never come back.

Lin Feifei smirked, "It doesn't matter if you agree or not, I will still move away."

"You dare?"

Huo Minglang angrily slapped the table and stood up. He had always been a gentle person, and had never firmly denied his words, it seemed like his explosive action two nights ago had truly hurt her heart, whenhe thought about it, she immediately said in a soft voice: "Fei Fei, you are a woman, you should put your family first, why are you so concerned about work, a woman will eventually return home, and it's not like I can't support you. How about this, you quit tomorrow and stay at home with your parents, I'll raise you guys."

When Aunt Lin heard this, she immediately felt comforted. She looked at Huo Minglang with even more satisfaction.

However, when these words entered Lin Feifei's ears, she only felt ridicule, an incomparable irony. Even at a time like this, he actually still wanted to take away her freedom to work.

Even to the point of being too lazy to bother with Huo Minglang, Lin Feifei only asked the Aunt Lin: "Where's Dad?"

From the moment he entered the room, he did not see Uncle Lin.

"Your father is cooking in the kitchen!"

The Aunt Lin replied.

"I'll go tell Dad."

Lin Feifei ran into the kitchen. She really didn't want to be in a place with Huo Minglang at all, since she was definitely going to leave today.
