MTL - The Reborn Scholar Wants To Counterattack

 Chapter 63 Satisfaction

Huo Yan’s eyes were light and his voice was smooth as he said, “There are still three hours left.”

 It takes an hour to go to the airport from Gu's home, and you need to reserve at least an hour to go through the procedures at the airport.

If you don’t eat now, Huo Zhenhua may really not be able to catch the plane.

Huo Zhenhua nodded and glanced at his grandson with relief. It had been about three or four years since the last time Huo Yan cared about him.

Although his attitude was a bit cold, Huo Zhenhua was still very happy in his heart.

He felt that it was a really good idea to get Huo Yan and Gu Weimian engaged, and maybe Huo Yan would be able to come out of the shadows.

 Huo Zhenhua stood up from the sofa without noticing Gu Siyu's slightly twisted expression.

Although Gu Weimian was worried about Zhu Mingfei, she was always concerned about Mr. Huo's physical condition.

Seeing Huo Yan mention the flight at this time, she asked tentatively: "Grandpa Huo, maybe you won't leave today? It's my birthday in a few days, you can stay..."

"Weimian!" Gu Xinguo interrupted Gu Weimian, "Your Grandpa Huo has business to do back in Yanjing, so how can he have time to stay here with you for your birthday party?"

Gu Siyu poured a bowl of soup and put it in front of Huo Zhenhua, and said with a smile: "Sister, there is only half a month left, and there is no reason for elders to celebrate birthdays for younger ones. If sister wants any gifts, you can ask grandpa Tell me, grandpa will always satisfy you."

Gu Weimian narrowed her eyes. Does this mean that she is deliberately asking Huo Zhenhua for a gift?

 Gu Xinguo did not refute. In fact, in his impression, every time Gu Weimian mentioned his birthday in front of him, it was just because he wanted something that was too expensive or difficult to buy, so he would find ways to tease him in front of him.

 But it was indeed a bit too much for Gu Weimian to ask Huo Zhenhua for something.

Gu Weimian took a piece of asparagus and put it to her mouth. Her mind was thinking about Huo Zhenhua's affairs and the teacher's affairs. She raised her head and said, "Or...shall I accompany you to Yanjing?"

If Huo Zhenhua insists on getting on the plane today, she can still do some basic first aid measures if she is with him.

 For an acute illness like stroke, if the first aid measures are done well, the subsequent side effects can be alleviated very effectively.

 This is also the last resort.

 At the dining table, it was a little too quiet, with only the sound of clinking bowls and spoons.

Gu Xinguo looked at his eldest granddaughter with a bit of disappointment in his eyes.

Such entanglement will probably destroy all the goodwill Huo Zhenhua has finally built up.

Huo Zhenhua put down his knife and fork, picked up a napkin and pressed it to his lips. He said with a smile: "What birthday gift does Weimian want? When we get to Yanjing, I will ask someone to bring it to you."

Although the words were polite, it was obvious that Huo Zhenhua rejected Gu Weimian's proposal to get on the plane with him to Yanjing.

 He also felt that Gu Weimian might have a childish nature and wanted gifts.

However, he can also understand that Gu Weimian is only 17 years old after all, and he has been raised by Gu Xinguo in his hands since he was a child, so he will inevitably have to be pampered.

He glanced at Gu Siyu who was standing aside. In comparison, the youngest daughter of the Gu family was indeed raised to be more outstanding.

From beginning to end, Gu Siyu showed enthusiasm without losing dignity, politeness without losing the innocence that a young girl should have.

 He gathered his thoughts.
