On the 29th day of the lunar year, Chen Ping'an called Dean Tao Zhixing to ask when they would arrive in Vienna.
What surprised Chen Ping'an was that they had agreed to come to Vienna to celebrate the New Year, but now Tao Zhixing changed his mind.
The touring exhibition was extremely popular in Paris, not only because the works of the Calligraphy and Painting Academy were popular among local Chinese, but also because local French people liked them very much.
They will stay in Paris and celebrate the Chinese New Year with the local Chinese community!
Although he felt a little regretful, Chen Pingan felt relieved when he heard that they were in Paris.
After casually sending his blessings, he did not take the initiative to mention the Chen family and his fifth uncle. After chatting for a few words, he hung up the phone.
Chen Yangyang was taking a flight back to Paris in the afternoon, and he hadn't thought of asking the Chen family to take care of anything.
The manor is decorated with lights and New Year's goods have been prepared, and we are just waiting to start working tomorrow.
This was also the day Huo Shijun returned to the capital.
After getting off the plane and getting into the family car, she sat in the car looking out the window at the streets that were already filled with the festive atmosphere of the New Year. Suddenly, she realized that she was already 22 years old, turning 23.
This is the first time I have seen my father in the past six months.
Not knowing what situation she was about to face, she suddenly felt a little timid.
Chinese New Year is tomorrow and there are a lot of cars on the road.
The car stopped and started, and she couldn't help but recall every detail from the time she met Chen Pingan to the present.
Whether he is trading or in his spare time, the guy who is one year younger than him is always so calm.
I really want to be by his side!
However, ever since Chen Ping'an went abroad three months ago, the two have had no contact at all, not even by phone or WeChat.
Time is indeed the best medicine to erase memories.
Perhaps, Chen Pingan has already forgotten himself.
An hour and a half later, she got out of the car carrying her small bag, while the driver was busy getting her luggage from the trunk.
The big villa looked at her silently as usual, and the steps were spotless.
The snow in the yard was piled up against the wall.
She looked around, then stepped onto the steps, opened the door and walked in.
"Shiyun, you're back!"
"Miss Shiyun is back."
In the living room, the servants, her father, and her eldest brother were all there. What surprised her was that her two sisters, Huo Shiting and Huo Shilan, were also there.
But my mother is still abroad, just like in previous years.
She was not very clear about the story between her mother and father, but she had long been accustomed to it. Like her brothers and sisters, she just avoided mentioning this topic.
"Dad, big brother, big sister, second sister, I'm back."
Huo Shijun took a deep breath and greeted calmly.
"Sister, does my brother-in-law still not have a holiday for the New Year this year?"
When she saw her elder sister, she thought of Zhu Zhengyang who was following her fifth uncle.
When she and Chen Ping'an were attacked in a hotel in Shenzhen, it was Zhu Zhengyang who brought two soldiers to the hotel to see her.
Huo Shiting smiled and shook her head. "No! It's not that easy for him to ask for leave. My fifth uncle told me."
"Okay, everyone, be quiet. Shiyun just came back. Let her go upstairs to change clothes and wash up." Huo Xiuzhu said, then waved at Huo Shiyun, "Your room has been cleaned. Go up directly."
Huo Shijun nodded and looked at Huo Zhiqiang, "Dad, I'm going upstairs to take a shower first, and then I'll come down to talk to you guys later."
Huo Zhiqiang nodded and said, "Go ahead."
She asked again: "Second sister, when did you come back?"
Huo Shilan said calmly, "I came back the day before yesterday, and I have to go to the Lin family in the Magic City in a few days."
Huo Shijun's heart tightened.
The second elder sister was going to marry into the Lin family of Magic City. This matter had been decided long ago, but either of her two elder sisters was luckier than her.
Both the eldest sister and Zhu Zhengyang like each other very much.
It seems that the second sister has a good relationship with Lin Ruijie from the Lin family, but she doesn’t know much about it.
Let’s talk about it when the three of them get together in the evening.
Huo Shiyun pushed the suitcase brought in by the driver and walked towards the elevator.
After she went up, Huo Xiuzhu sighed, "Finally, you're back."
Huo Shiting whispered, "Shiyun is out here alone. Dad, you and my brother are really relieved!"
Huo Zhiqiang shook his head. "I have no business dealing with this kind of thing. From now on, you can talk to Xiuzhu directly about these things."
I will retire after the new year, and then I will go abroad to visit your mother."
The living room suddenly became quiet.
After a moment, Huo Xiuzhu said, "Okay, you guys go up too. Shiyun must have had a hard time these past few months, and I don't know the specifics.
Huo Xiuwen's entire family has moved abroad. It was fine before, but now, I feel like I was wrong.
I didn’t expect that he would actually plan to start his own business…”
Huo Shiting and Huo Shilan naturally wouldn't respond.
The former has a master's degree from Tsinghua University and will graduate soon. Naturally, he will find a job in a government agency and has no worries at all.
The latter is studying hotel management in Switzerland and will have to marry into the Lin family in Shanghai in a year at most.
They both stood up and went to the elevator together.
Huo Zhiqiang picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and put it down. "Xiuzhu, I'll leave Shiyun to you. I let go when I say so."
Just like when I took over the Huo family, your grandfather also left me a difficult problem."
Huo Xiuzhu smiled, "Shiyun? She's not a problem at all.
I didn’t have time before, but after the Chinese New Year, I will go to Paris to have a look.
I have read all the information sent back by the people over there.
Xiu Wen and Shi Yun are now relying on Chen Pingan and the Chen family to do projects in Paris, and most people know this.
After there's trouble over there, I'll let them contact Xiu Wen.
We are all family, so we should help if we can.”
Huo Zhiqiang nodded and said, "Just keep it in mind."
Huo Xiuzhu continued, "You don't need to worry about Shiyun for now. Wait until she realizes that her abilities are insufficient.
Our focus remains on the domestic market.
But within ten years, if my eldest uncle and fifth uncle can't make any further progress, I will definitely find a way to move on."
Huo Zhiqiang was silent for a while, then sighed, "It's up to you to decide."
"Ok, I know."
"Also, you still have to maintain the relationship with Li Yifei and that guy." Huo Zhiqiang sighed after he finished speaking.
It's really frustrating.
But no way.
The Huo family is considered very powerful among the people, but compared with those powerful people, they really have little resistance.
If the law were not strictly enforced, it would be hard to say when someone would take advantage of it.
upstairs.
Huo Shijun took off her clothes and looked at her body in the mirror. After a moment, she shook her head, turned around, stepped across the bathtub, and slowly sat down.
Thinking of her eldest and second sisters whom she had just met, the depression in her heart was almost unbearable to suppress.
When I was a child, my eldest and second sisters were so good to me. They were both very outstanding people, but in the end they had no way to decide their own marriage.
The only difference is that at least they themselves are satisfied with their partners.
But what about yourself?
The Gao family probably has no hope of getting me, but I don’t know whether my eldest brother and father will keep their promise.
But no matter what, I won't give in!
I don't believe that I can't escape the fate of arranged marriage on my own.
