The metaphysical mother returns, and the villain son stands at attention

Chapter 78: We Went to the Wrong Place
After returning to Yuncheng, Gu Qingyin and Huo Xinghai separated. Their son was not as idle as her, as he had other announcements to attend to.

Gu Qingyin returned to the old house and had just finished cleaning up when Liu Ergou came to her house about Xia Zelin's matter. This man actually knew Lin Wu.

Although the two were very secretive when they were in contact, it could still be discovered if someone was careful.

"The master behind Xia Zelin is Lin Wu." Liu Ergou sat in the tea room, drinking tea happily and said, "Xia Zelin knew Lin Wu a long time ago. His purpose in entering the entertainment industry was to develop clients. After all, the entertainment industry makes money quickly, and those stars are willing to spend money to become famous."

Gu Qingyin lazily sat opposite him, drinking tea in a casual manner, "Is there any news about Lin Wu?"

Liu Ergou shook his head, "He never showed up."

"Xia Zelin might know." Gu Qingyin asked: "Is he in Yuncheng?"

"There will be a roadshow in Yuncheng in a few days, and Xia Zelin will be here."

Gu Qingyin hummed, "Then wait until he comes over." After drinking a cup of tea, she asked again, "Xuanxie hasn't moved to another place, right?"

"No, it's still hidden in the old city." Liu Ergou paused while drinking his tea. "Are you going to report it?"

Gu Qingyin glanced at him and said, "I will report it, but not this matter."

Liu Ergou was about to ask when he suddenly felt his trouser leg being pulled. He looked at Gu Qingyin opposite him in confusion, his whole body stiffened and he dared not move.

In an instant, a lot of thoughts went through his mind.

Gu Qingyin, who was standing opposite him, saw that he had been holding the teacup for a long time without moving, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Liu Ergou became even more stiff, "No, it's okay." He lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea. While putting down the teacup, he lowered his head very naturally, and then looked at the little monkey on his lap.

Neither the man nor the monkey moved for several seconds.

People thought: Why is it a monkey?
The monkey thought: Why is this person staring at me? Is he trying to attack me?

"Maomao." Gu Qingyin finally realized that something was wrong and said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you not to run around? Come back soon."

The monkey raised its paw vigilantly and backed away slowly. After it got off the man's legs, it quickly ran back to Gu Qingyin and thought, it's because this man looks a bit delicious.

Liu Ergou also reacted. He couldn't tell whether he felt disappointed or relieved, but he felt much more at ease than before.

He stretched his neck to look at Maomao, his eyes full of curiosity. "Is this the thing you brought back from the island?"

Gu Qingyin nodded, "Yes, it's not a spirit, nor is it a ghost, but it was born, which is magical." Maomao can be said to be a unique form of life in this world.

Liu Ergou felt itchy after hearing this, "Let me see it."

Gu Qingyin smiled, "Talk to it yourself."

Liu Ergou looked at Maomao and didn't think of how to start the conversation for several seconds. He couldn't just say, "Come here, I want to study you,"
Maomao felt nervous when he was stared at, and couldn't help but bare his teeth at him.

Liu Ergou sneered, "Forget it, the opportunity has not yet arrived, and we can't force it."

Gu Qingyin sneered, "Don't make it up to yourself."

Liu Ergou coughed lightly and started to make tea again, "Chen Ling is pregnant."

Gu Qingyin raised an eyebrow, "The risk of giving birth to an older mother is not low. Does she love it so much?"

Liu Ergou also found it strange.

He knew Chen Ling’s husband, a very conventional Taoist priest who hadn’t made any great achievements, but hadn’t made any mistakes either. How could Chen Ling, who was so proud and arrogant, end up choosing to marry such a mediocre person?
Liu Ergou shook his head and said, "Maybe it's fate."

Gu Qingyin shrugged. The family affairs had not been sorted out yet, so she would just treat outsiders' affairs as gossip and there was no need to delve into them.

"I sent you the list before, see if there is anyone who can help, and help them." Gu Qingyin was talking about the people who were cursed by Huo Xinghai before. She used tea instead of wine to toast Liu Ergou, "I owe you a favor."

Liu Ergou was immediately unhappy, "We have known each other for many years, there is no need to be so formal."

Gu Qingyin curled her eyes and said, "Let's put things one way or the other." Liu Ergou curled his lips and still drank the cup of tea.

"When are you going to Xuanxie?"

Gu Qingyin thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow."

Liu Ergou nodded, "I'm free these two days, I can go with you." As if afraid of being rejected, he added: "The Xuan Association has changed a lot in the past twenty years, and many old people have retired. If I go with you, it can save a lot of trouble."

Gu Qingyin didn't care. She smiled and nodded when she heard that.

After chatting for a while, Liu Ergou left with satisfaction.

In the evening, Aunt Hua asked the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous meal, and Huo Xingye and Huo Xinghai were both coming back for dinner.

This was the first real dinner for them since they met, so Hua Xin took it very seriously. From the control of ingredients to the choice of tableware, even the tablecloth was changed to a new color.

Gu Qingyin didn't understand, but expressed respect, well, and was grateful.

At around seven o'clock in the evening, Huo Xingye came back first.

Gu Qingyin hadn't seen her eldest son for several days. She happily went up to him and gave him a loving hug, then took a step back to look at him carefully.

Huo Xingye was changing his shoes, and his movements became increasingly unnatural when being stared at. He pursed his lips, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Qingyin frowned, "Did you not get enough rest these days? Why are your dark circles so heavy? Your face looks a little thinner. Did you eat well?"

Huo Xingye suddenly felt warm in his heart, and a relaxed smile appeared on the corner of his lips. "I've been a little busy with work these days, I'll be fine after I finish this."

Gu Qingyin sighed, "No matter how busy you are, you must take care of your health first."

"Got it." Huo Xingye put his hand on Gu Qingyin's shoulder and pushed her to the living room. "You watch TV first. I'll go upstairs to clean up and wait for Xinghai to come back to eat together."

Gu Qingyin followed his force and muttered threats, "Don't stay up late tonight. I will keep an eye on you. If you stay up late again, I will knock you out and throw you back on the bed."

Huo Xingye's eyes twitched, and he completely gave up the idea of staying up late to work.

Other people's mothers might just be verbal threats, but his mother really does it.

Not long after Huo Xingye went upstairs, Huo Xinghai came back looking tired, without even removing his makeup.

Gu Qingyin felt distressed when she saw this, "Go up and take a bath quickly, there's no need to rush down."

Huo Xinghai was too lazy to talk. He leaned over to hug his mother and took the elevator upstairs.

When I came downstairs again, it was more than half an hour later. Huo Xingye and Gu Qingyin were sitting on the sofa talking.

Huo Xinghai vaguely heard Huo Zhaohua's name, but he didn't ask.

If he needed to know, his mother and elder brother would naturally tell him. If he didn't need to know, then he could just follow his heart and get along with Huo Zhaohua. He didn't need to worry about anything else.

"Everyone is here, let's eat."

The family of three sat down in the restaurant, eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was very good.

Perhaps because everyone was too focused, no one heard the sound of the door opening.

However, the visitor was shocked by the laughter and cheers as soon as he opened the door, and even wondered if he had come to the wrong place.

After a pause, the person walked in with very light footsteps. The happy scene in the restaurant came into his sight, making him dazed for a short time.

It turned out that I went to the wrong place.
