Chapter 418: Chapter 418: I Hope You Can Forgive Ou Cong

Xia Chuyi’s hand was slightly squeezed with force by Huo Shiqian.

“…”

Fortunately, Uncle Liberation Army didn’t say anything.

After greeting everyone and introducing the situation of the restaurant, business got busy.

Xia Chuyi wanted to help but was chased out by Qian Qianqian.

“You should go on a date with Commander Huo. He came all this way to see you!” Qian Qianqian told Xia Chuyi, “We don’t need your help in the shop. The three of us are more than enough. You standing around here are just in the way.”

Hearing this, Wang Yu and Huang Xiaoyun immediately echoed, “Yeah, yeah, go on a date with Commander Huo!”

Xia Chuyi: …

Even as the boss, to be despised by her employees…

And Qian Qianqian, didn’t she used to idolize her before?

Now she’s starting to “chase” her away?

Seeing the young girl’s depressed face, Huo Shiqian said to her, “Let’s go. I’ll take you to Jude to eat their roast duck. It’s quite famous in Capital City.”

Roast duck?

“Capital City roast duck?” Xia Chuyi tilted her head and asked him.

“Mhm.” Huo Shiqian nodded and said, “This time, my leave is relatively long.”

“During this time, I will accompany you and explore all the interesting places in Capital City.”

These words made Xia Chuyi light up, and she replied with a smile, “Okay.”

“Panpan, Xiao Ming, let’s go eat roast duck with big brother and big sister!” Xia Chuyi called out to the two kids.

“Qianqian, Sister Yu, Xiao Yun, I’ll bring back roast duck for you!”

Hearing this, a smile inadvertently appeared on the corner of Huo Shiqian’s mouth.

Luckily, he had anticipated that the young girl would do this, so when he had ordered the roast duck from his master, he had ordered two extra.

When they arrived at Jude, they unexpectedly ran into someone they knew.

“Senior Sister Jiang?” Xia Chuyi exclaimed in surprise.

“Chuyi?” Jiang Fengqi was also surprised to see her and then she understood when she saw Huo Shiqian.

“Senior Sister Jiang, have you eaten yet? If not, join us!” Xia Chuyi felt it was a fortunate coincidence and invited Jiang Fengqi.

Jiang Fengqi shook her head and said, “Thank you for the invitation, junior sister, but we have already eaten.”

She said “we” because Senior Sister Jiang’s group was there for a gathering, which included someone Xia Chuyi had seen before–Song Zhicheng.

At that moment, Huo Shiqian was talking to Song Zhicheng on the side.

“I hope, Commander Huo, that you won’t be too hard on Ou Cong regarding that matter,” Song Zhicheng said to Huo Shiqian.

Huo Shiqian’s expression was indifferent as he replied, “I have not blamed him. It’s just that he indeed needs to grow up now.”

Song Zhicheng frowned, looking as if he wanted to say more.

The two women had finished their small talk and walked over.

Huo Shiqian’s indifferent expression immediately softened when his gaze settled on his little girl.

“Zhicheng, let’s go,” Jiang Fengqi said to Song Zhicheng.

However, Song Zhicheng apologized to Jiang Fengqi and suddenly said to Xia Chuyi, “Xia Chuyi, right?”

“May I have a word with you?”

“Huh?” Xia Chuyi was instantly baffled.

What could they have to talk about?

Huo Shiqian looked at Jiang Fengqi, then at Song Zhicheng.

Jiang Fengqi was just as surprised, but Huo Shiqian’s brow furrowed in an instant.

“Well, Brother Song, if you have something to say, just say it,” said Xia Chuyi, reluctant to refuse Song Zhicheng, especially in front of Jiang Fengqi.

Most importantly, she was quite curious about what he would say.

Then, Song Zhicheng added, “May I borrow you for a moment to talk?”
