The stagnant atmosphere in the room made Zhu Jin freeze in place.

She cast a questioning look at Huo Jingcheng for help.

She really didn't understand what she said was wrong.

"Grandma Song, those who don't know are not guilty."

Under the table, warm palms covered her hands and patted her twice gently.

Mrs. Song's suddenly cold face softened slightly after these words, but it didn't look much better either.

She pursed her lips for a while before shaking her head, "Forget it. If you can't see what you want to design from this piece of paper, forget it. I don't want to embarrass you."

"The Huo Group has a lot of good tasks. You can take on another one."

He refused directly when he opened his mouth. This was an answer Zhu Jin had never thought of.

"see a visitor out."

Mrs. Song looked like she didn't want to talk anymore.

Uncle Gui still had a faint smile on his face, "This way, please."

Zhu Jin and Huo Jingcheng had no choice but to leave first.

Uncle Gui led the way and explained in a low voice after leaving the hall, "I'm sorry, that design drawing is of great significance to the old lady. Maybe she didn't really mean to issue that mission, but just wanted to have something to rely on."

"However, thank you for coming today."

"I'm sorry if I was slight."

Zhu Jin said, "It's okay. Maybe my words were inappropriate and made the old lady unhappy."

Uncle Gui looked like he was hesitating to speak, and he didn't say much until he sent the two of them to the car.

After the car drove away from the Song family, Huo Jingcheng said, "What do you want to ask?"

Zhu Jin's eyes were still on the retreating Song family villa in the rearview mirror, "Well, I do have some questions I want to ask, but I'm afraid it might be too presumptuous?"

"Don't want to give up on this mission?" Huo Jingcheng asked.

Zhu Jin nodded, "Yes. I can see that there is still hope in Mrs. Song's eyes. She may be waiting for someone to help make this necklace and fulfill her dream."

"So, I want to try it."

She won't brag and say that she can definitely complete it. She just thinks this can be a try.

"Well, you ask."

"Is there a child in Mrs. Song's family who died young?" Zhu Jin added, "It should be her own biological child."

Only relatives who passed away early will be missed so much.

Huo Jingcheng raised his eyelids and took a deep look at Zhu Jin.

"You're quite smart."

"Since you've already guessed it, I'll just tell you."

A story about Mrs. Song slowly came out of Huo Jingcheng's mouth.

Mrs. Song and Mr. Ji were a match made in heaven when they got married. The two were particularly loving and had a close relationship. Soon they had their first son, who is now the head of the Ji family.

After her eldest son was three years old, Mrs. Song gave birth to a younger daughter who took her surname.

Everything was originally happy and perfect, but who knew that the little daughter was killed by the nanny invited.

From the nanny's mouth, Mrs. Song found out that Mr. Ji had a one-night stand with the nanny.

The nanny was jealous of Mrs. Song and didn't want her to be so happy, so she deliberately moved her little daughter down the stairs when she was away.

The three-year-old girl died on the stairs.

Although, later investigation revealed that the nanny was abused by others and suffered from severe depression and hallucinations.

The old man of the Ji family is innocent.

But Mrs. Song's heart has died along with her little daughter.

After this incident, something happened to the Song family.

Mrs. Song divorced Mr. Ji and returned to the Song family alone to support the entire Song family.

"This matter was very popular in Beijing circles at the time." Huo Jingcheng said, "Maybe you didn't pay attention at that time. Later, the Song family and the Ji family didn't have much relationship, and everyone gradually forgot about it."

Zhu Jin was stunned when he heard this.

She never thought it would be such a sad story.

What was supposed to be a happy and happy family ended up being destroyed because of a mentally ill person.

Zhu Jin suddenly thought of something. She raised her head and looked at Huo Jingcheng, "Is this really a slander by the nanny?"

Huo Jingcheng took a sip of the tea in the thermos cup and said, "At least that's the result of the investigation. As for whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter anymore."

Zhu Jin was dumbfounded. After a long silence, she asked, "So, that picture was drawn by the youngest daughter?"

Huo Jingcheng nodded.

The car is quiet.

When they were about to return to the Huo family's old house, Huo Jingcheng asked, "So, are you still planning to take on this mission?"

The person who drew the design had passed away, and it was difficult for her to find the true intention of the drawing.

It is difficult to design works that satisfy people in this way.

Zhu Jin suddenly understood why others would choose to give up on this task.

It is obviously not cost-effective in the eyes of the designer to spend more time on a family that seems to have been lonely for a long time.

"If possible, I hope to see Mrs. Song again."

As a mother, she knows better than anyone what kind of necklace she hopes to get.

Or it should be said that for so many years, there has been a little daughter in Mrs. Song's heart who will never grow up.

Only she can give Zhu Jin the answer.

A trace of surprise flashed in Huo Jingcheng's eyes.

"Okay. In a few days, I will ask Assistant Chen to take you there."

"Thank you."

This is not Huo Jingcheng's scope of responsibility.

Huo Jingcheng said calmly, "Remuneration."

Zhu Jin was stunned.

Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows at her.

Zhu Jin's cheeks turned red, she leaned over and kissed Huo Jingcheng's face very quickly.

When she sat back down, her heart was beating fast, as if it would jump out of her chest in the next second.

"If you want to talk about other things... let's talk about it when we get back." Zhu Jin hesitated.

No matter how honest she was with him, it would be difficult for her to interact intimately with him in front of everyone without changing her expression.

Originally I just wanted to tease the other person, but I didn't expect to receive a big gift.

The lips were pursed tightly, the corners of the lips were slightly raised, with a faint smile that could not be detected.

"Wait and see."

……

When Zhu Jin saw herself in the mirror, she was in a trance.

Among the several sets of clothes she bought, she chose the one that seemed the most conservative, but was actually the most alluring.

There seems to be a lot of fabric, but it fails to cover the places that should be covered. On the contrary, the fabric is cool and breathable.

When walking and swaying, you can even see the graceful body curves and the beautiful body that is difficult to take away from the side.

Do you really want to go out wearing this?

Zhu Jin silently retreated.

"are you ready."

The man said as he opened the door.

His eyes were instantly fixed on the woman in front of him.

His throat rolled, and he silently swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.

Her gaze was like it could ignite a person's body. Wherever she looked, Zhu Jin felt as if that place was burned by fire, so she subconsciously covered it up.

His eyes were full of naked and unconcealed desire.

"I, I might as well change it." Zhu Jin was so anxious that he stuttered.

Looking at Huo Jingcheng's appearance, she suspected that he was planning to eat her up.

"Need not."

As Huo Jingcheng finished speaking, Zhu Jin felt a pain in his wrist and fell into the other person's arms.
