The three of them set off together.

Huo Jing's destination was in a tall building not far from the Huo Corporation.

Huo Xiaozheng instructed the driver to drop off the two of them first.

Before getting out of the car, Huo Xiaozheng produced a small floral mask from somewhere and put it on Huo Ning.

"Stay close to your aunt, and call me if anything happens."

Huo Ning nodded.

Huo Jing got out of the car first and walked around to Huo Ning's side, reaching out to help her down.

"Bring Ning Ning back to the office before lunch."

"Huh?" Huo Jing was shocked. "Can't I even have a meal with my little niece?"

Huo Xiaozheng ignored her: "No."

Huo Jing, whose worldview had been refreshed once again, almost laughed in exasperation. How had she never noticed before that her cold brother also had the qualities of a doting father?

Huo Xiaozheng paid no heed to her thoughts, waved to Huo Ning, and drove away.

Huo Jing was fuming at being so blatantly disregarded.

Huo Ning knew Huo Xiaozheng was worried about her having an episode. She stepped forward, took Huo Jing's hand, and looked up with a sincere invitation: "Auntie, why don't you join us for baked lobster at lunch? It's so delicious!"

Huo Jing felt her anger subside a little: "Alright, I'll definitely come. It'll serve your dad right."

Huo Ning smiled sweetly: "No, no, we can't upset my dad."

After all, she was still relying on Huo Xiaozheng to live.

Huo Jing looked dejected: In this family, I'm truly the odd one out.

Visiting a magazine photo shoot location for the first time, Huo Ning looked around curiously.

"Jing-jie is here!" a young man wearing a baseball cap called out.

Huo Jing adjusted her demeanor, switching from a wronged wife to a superstar mode.

"Good morning, everyone."

"Good morning!" Everyone greeted her warmly.

"Oh, who's this little girl...?"

Huo Jing smiled: "This is my little niece. My family had something come up, so I'm looking after her for a bit. I hope it won't affect anyone's work?"

Although Huo Jing had the image of a cold beauty, she had always had a good reputation in the industry, so everyone was kind to her.

"Of course not. As expected of Huo beauty's niece, she's already showing signs of becoming a beauty herself!"

Huo Ning, wearing her mask, didn't quite believe it. How could they tell she was pretty just like this?

The person speaking was a production assistant, chubby with a round face. Seeing the doubt in her eyes, he smiled good-naturedly: "Your eyes are very beautiful. I wonder if you take after your dad or mom?"

People in the industry didn't know about Huo Jing's connection to the famous Huo family, so there was no malice when such questions were asked.

Huo Jing's smile faded a little: "Like her mom."

This was the truth.

Shi Lili might have had poor character, but she was quite beautiful, especially her eyes, which seemed to hold entire galaxies when she blinked.
