Reborn in the 90s, I traded my ex-husband for eight apartments.

Huo Zheng checked the time:

"I have a meeting later, so I have to go now."

"I'll pick everyone up tomorrow morning, so you don't need to worry about it."

Despite being so busy, they still made a trip under the midday sun.

Bai Zhenzhu's heart softened:

"Then come over for breakfast tomorrow morning."

Huo Zheng did not hesitate:

"Okay."

He answered too quickly, as if afraid that Bai Zhenzhu would change her mind.

White Pearl: "..."

Huo Zheng smiled.

"Xiao Bai, this is the first time you've invited me to stay for dinner."

Bai Zhenzhu's lips twitched:

"Impossible, I've left it before."

Huo Zheng's eyes were burning:

"Different."

Bai Zhenzhu couldn't stand his gaze.

He stared intently at her, as if trying to see into her heart and brand his name, Huo Zheng, onto her soul.

"You should hurry up and leave, don't you have a meeting to attend?"

Huo Zheng smiled:

"I'm leaving."

After saying that, he actually got up and left.

Once inside the courtyard, Bai Chengxiang and Bai Jingsi sat under the eaves and chatted.

Huo Zheng smiled and said:

"Second Brother, Third Brother, I have a meeting this afternoon, so I'll have to go now. I'll drive everyone there tomorrow."

The two brothers quickly got up to see their guests off.

Bai Jingsi smiled and said:

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Huo."

Huo Zheng: "No trouble at all."

He nodded and left.

As soon as the person left, Bai Chengxiang and Bai Jingsi went into the living room.

Zhang Minmin and Liu Fang were already in the living room.

Bai Zhenzhu felt quite embarrassed being watched by her older brother and sister-in-law.

Voluntarily confess:

"I will seriously consider it."

Liu Fang smiled and said:

"My mom said that Mr. Huo's parents are also very good people. Last time the Huo family hosted a dinner party, my mom always gave a thumbs up when she mentioned the Huo family."

"Pearl, take your time to think it over, there's no rush."

Zhang Minmin is young, so her views are different:

"There's no need to think about it, just do what you like."

"Besides, with such a great offer from President Huo, what if someone else snatches it away?"

Bai Chengxiang snorted:

"Anything that can be stolen is not good."

This clearly shows that she was thinking of Pei Xiangyang.

Bai Zhenzhu chuckled:

"I know it well."

Bai Chengxiang had to do business in the afternoon, so he rode off on his tricycle.

In the afternoon, Bai Jingsi, Zhang Minmin, and Dong Juan went to Lotus Pond.

Lotus Pond already has autumn clothes. They went to Nie Li's place to get the autumn clothes, packed them up, and then a truck driver they knew came to Chengdu to help them bring them back.

Now that Bai Zhenzhu's leg is injured and it's inconvenient for her to travel, they took the opportunity to do what they needed to do while they were in Rongcheng.

The next day, Huo Zheng got up early for his usual run.

Then Qi Yunzhu saw her son taking a shower and tidying upstairs for a long time.

Finally, the shirts and trousers came out; all the clothes were new this year and I hadn't worn them yet.

Her hair was also clearly coated with hair oil.

Qi Yunzhu couldn't help but take a few more glances:

"Where are you going? You're dressed like you're going to your wedding."

Huo Zheng remained unfazed:

"The low-profit housing project went on sale today, and Xiaobai's family all came over. I have to go over there."

Qi Yunzhu knew that Huo Zheng was keeping an eye out for houses for Bai Zhenzhu, and nodded:

“Yes, it’s not easy for them to earn money, and buying a house is a big deal. You have to take care of it for them.”

Huo Zheng took a new pair of leather shoes out of the shoe cabinet:

"understood."

Qi Yunzhu saw him putting on his shoes and casually asked:

"Aren't you eating at home?"

Huo Zheng: "No, let's eat at Xiaobai's house."

Qi Yunzhu: "Okay, I'll just eat whatever I want."

Huo Zheng thought for a moment and said, "I won't be coming home for dinner tonight either."

Qi Yunzhu waved her hand:

"Get out of here."

Previously, Huo Zheng was acting mysteriously, but now he's openly flaunting himself in front of his mother, dressed like a peacock when he goes out, and Qi Yunzhu has no suspicions at all.

When Huo Zheng arrived at Bai Zhenzhu's house, the entire Bai family was already up.

Shuo Shuo and Jia Jia were quizzing each other on the text early in the morning.

Liu Fang and Zhang Minmin were helping with the cooking in the kitchen.

Bai Jingsi was helping to sweep the yard, while Xiao Wenbo, wearing open-crotch pants, was running and playing in the already swept areas of the yard.

This courtyard is full of life and looks lively.

Bai Jingsi opened the door for Huo Zheng. He was handsome and looked a lot like Bai Zhenzhu. He was always smiling.

"President Huo is here."

"Third brother."

Bai Jingsi pushed up her glasses. The person who called her name didn't seem embarrassed, but she, the one being called, was genuinely quite embarrassed.

He's a few years younger than Huo Zheng.

Just as Huo Zheng entered, Bai Chengxiang arrived.

He closed his braised meat shop today and took a day off.

He had a canvas bag hanging around his neck, which contained money and documents.

Seeing that Huo Zheng had arrived even earlier than him, Bai Chengxiang clicked his tongue inwardly.

That's really quite attentive.

When Li Xiufen heard that Huo Zheng had arrived, her face lit up with a big smile:

"Little Huo is here, come in and sit down."

"Are you hungry? We'll eat soon."

Bai Chengxiang shouted unhappily from behind:

"Mom, can't you see your big son?"

Li Xiufen said irritably:

"What, you still need your mother to take care of you? Want me to give you a beating with the sole of my shoe?"

Bai Chengxiang grinned foolishly.

Li Xiufen said irritably:

"He's thirty years old and not mature at all. Look at young Huo."

Bai Chengxiang: "..."

This comparison is too discouraging.

Li Xiufen ignored her second son and beckoned Huo Zheng into the main room.

The main house consisted of the living room and dining room. Huo Zheng was stunned for a moment when he entered the house.

Bai Zhenzhu wore a white dress and a headband today.

This outfit made her look younger, and it was hard to look away.

For some reason, Huo Zheng suddenly remembered the time Bai Zhenzhu saved him, and the fleeting moment of amazement he felt when he first saw her under the light.

The person in front of him suddenly raised his face and smiled at him:

"Mr. Huo, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you today."

Huo Zheng sat down on the single sofa next to him:

"No trouble."

His throat felt tight.

This face is clearly etched in my heart, yet I still panic.

Just then, Shuo Shuo came over.

"Uncle Huo, can we go with you today?"

Huo Zheng glanced at Bai Zhenzhu:

You'll have to ask your mom.

White Pearl shook her head beside her:

"No, your uncle and his family are going to take care of important business, not to play around."

Shuo Shuo looked at Huo Zheng with anticipation.

He thought that Uncle Huo was his best friend, and that as long as Uncle Huo agreed, his mother would definitely not object.

Who knew that even his Uncle Huo couldn't be relied on.

"It's really inconvenient today, and we've all gone out. Only you two are home, so you need to stay home and take care of Mom."

Upon hearing this, Shuo Shuo stopped insisting on going with them.

"Okay, then I'll stay home, do my homework, and take care of my mom."

Bai Zhenzhu said, "You can go to your godmother's house to play with your brother Zicheng, but you can't play for too long so as not to affect his studies."

Shuo Shuo jumped up happily again:

"I haven't seen my older brother in a long time."

"Mom, I'm not going to Godmother's house. I'll stay home with you. I'll ask my older brother to come over for lunch."

Bai Zhenzhu smiled and said, "Okay."

Huo Zheng patted Shuo Shuo's head.

Bai Zhenzhu strongly suspected that she had learned this action from her.

She loves to rub Shuo Shuo's little head the most.

After the family finished breakfast, Bai Zhenzhu gave Huo Zheng a bag of money.

She prepared 200,000 yuan in cash.
