Chapter 1159 - A Very Kind Smile
Helian Qingyu knew that the thing between them was not love, but he still could not let her go.
He was confused. He had a lot of women in his life, but Li Ruochu was the only one who could make him lose all his composure all the time.
…
The President’s Mansion was busy from early morning.
The servants began to prepare for a feast by order of the President.
Helian Wei also woke up early and showered after working out. He put on a new bespoke suit and appeared dashingly in front of his servants.
The servants were shocked as they could clearly see the excitement and happiness hanging on the President’s face, and they were wondering if he had met something happy in the past few days.
“Helian, who’s the guest today?” Yun Xuerou asked.
“Some acquaintance, you might know them too,” Helian Wei replied.
Only Helian Wei and Helian Qingyu knew that Huo Yunshen and Xu Xiyan were the guests for the feast. It was all done in secrecy, and no one other than them knew of the details because they knew that exposing Xu Xiyan’s identity would be catastrophic.
As for the news that Jing Xi was, in fact, Helian Wei’s daughter, he also kept it a secret from Yun Xuerou.
Helian Wei even canceled the council meeting for the day and waited in the White Tower until noon when his servant came in and reported that his guests had arrived.
“Hurry up and invite them in!” Helian Wei ordered as he put down the documents he was working on.
He went to the garden and waited until all four people were coming in.
Helian Wei could see that his son was walking with Huo Yunshen while Lan Ling’er walked slightly behind Helian Qingyu. On the other side, a short-haired man was walking behind Huo Yunshen.
Is that… Jing Xi? Helian Wei was shocked by Xu Xiyan’s appearance. She really looks like a man!
Helian Qingyu raised his head and noticed that Helian Wei was waiting for them and said, “Let’s go, my father is waiting for us.”
Xu Xiyan raised her head too and saw the President standing at the door; he looked as if he was waiting for something to happen.
They arrived at the garden, and Huo Yunshen greeted the President.
After a few formalities, Helian Wei looked at Xu Xiyan and smiled at her.
Xu Xiyan could feel something special from the way Helian Wei smiled and looked at her. It was as if he was meeting a long lost friend.
His smile was a very kind one.
Xu Xiyan did not say anything because she was disguised as Jun Yan, Huo Yunshen’s assistant. She could only bow at the President and had no right to raise her voice.
Helian Wei invited them into the mansion and guided them to the dining room.
“Thank you for the invitation,” Huo Yunshen said as Xu Xiyan sat next to him.
“I admire Mr. Huo’s achievements at such a young age, and since you’re my son’s best friend, you are free to visit us whenever you feel like it,” Helian Wei smiled.
“Thank you very much.”
Helian Wei intended that if Huo Yunshen were to visit him from time to time, he had more chance to meet with his daughter.
