The first time I went to He's house without worry

  Unfortunately, he ultimately couldn't get what he wanted. His lips had yet to touch hers when suddenly a cell phone ringtone went off. That unique ringtone made him stop in his tracks, despite being consumed by desire.

  Ling Yuqian suddenly felt a sense of loss, and an even stronger feeling was heart-wrenching, just because she thought of a certain scene from the previous two times. This phone call, wouldn't it be Li Xiaotong calling again?

  Fortunately, the old man was merciful. Although He Wei's voice became very gentle after answering the phone, the title he shouted out was not Tongtong, but... Grandpa! This call was made by his grandfather.

  "Let's go, it's more convenient that way. See you later."

  He said two brief sentences and hung up the phone, his gaze returning to Ling Yuqian's body, staring at her steadily, with a deep and piercing look in his eyes.

  Ling Yuqian was even more focused, her cherry lips moving slightly, wanting to speak but stopping herself.

  After a while, he spoke first, his tone returned to indifference, "You go back to work."

  Ling Yuqian bit her lip, and a hint of sadness reappeared in her eyes.

  He Wei Jun's expression slightly froze, and after a moment, he resolutely shook his head and continued in a light tone, "The time for Grandfather's birthday banquet is approaching, you need to stay close, can't afford any mistakes or accidents, huh?"

  Ling Yuqian furrowed her brow and stared at him for a moment, then turned around and rushed out without saying another word. She ran into the old man and middle-aged man from last time in the corridor again.

  Her mind suddenly wandered off for a moment, but soon her thoughts turned to the scene outside the high-end restaurant last time, and an uncomfortable feeling quietly sprouted from her heart.

  The old man didn't say anything this time, just smiled at her. The smile made her feel strange again, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was so strange about it. She didn't think much of it and responded with polite and courteous gestures, slipping to the side like last time, waiting for them to pass before continuing on her way to her office.

  "Dad, you seem to be very concerned about this girl. By the way, you didn't tell me last time, who is she?" He Yihang suddenly asked aloud, his tone calm with a hint of curiosity.

  He Yunqing turned his face slightly and gave his son a meaningful glance, ambiguously answering, "She's wearing the uniform of our hotel staff. As the chairman, you only need to give an order, and it will be possible to find out who she is."

  Watching his father's interesting expression, He Yihang couldn't help but feel more surprised, but he just smiled lightly and didn't make a sound.

  He Yunqing also fell silent, as if deep in thought, and walked forward until he stepped into He Yu's office.

  He Yue was sipping tea in the leisure area, seeing them enter, he stood up to greet, "Grandpa, I've brewed your favorite Kung Fu tea, come and try my skills."

  He Yunqing raised an eyebrow, looking surprised and approving, sitting shoulder to shoulder with He Yihang on the sofa.

  He Yu poured hot tea for both of them and then picked up a cup himself.

  A wisp of white smoke, a gentle curl of fragrance wafting everywhere, three generations savoring tea and chatting idly, the whole scene warm and cozy. Then, an uninvited figure appears.

  Compared to the previous two times when she directly entered, Li Xiaoyun knew to knock on the door today. After entering, she had a bright smile and a sweet voice that was exceptionally polite and respectful. "Grandpa He, Uncle He, hello! You really care about Da Ge, especially Grandpa, who came all the way to find Da Ge for tea. Da Ge must be extremely happy."

  After speaking, her slender and charming Danfeng eyes swept towards He Yu, smiling even sweeter and more charming.

  He Wei pursed his lips and remained silent.

  It was He Yunqing who spoke up, "I didn't expect Li Kun, this iron man, not only to have achieved great things in his career, but also to have raised two excellent daughters. Truly impressive."

  "Thank you, Grandpa, for your praise. I'll definitely tell my dad about this when I get home tonight, and he'll be very happy and excited." Li Xiaojun hastily responded, still smiling brightly, and without hesitation, she returned the compliment, "Actually, Grandpa He is the most amazing one. The development of G City is all thanks to his efforts. And Uncle He's generation is a renowned figure in both politics and business, which proves the saying 'a tiger father begets no dog son' true. All the people in the city admire and look up to the He family. Isn't that right, Uncle He?"

  As expected, He Yihang was overjoyed and loudly praised, "Jun Jun and Tong Tong are a rare and precious pair of outstanding sister flowers. Apart from Ah Yu, I don't know who else is the lucky one."

  Li Xiaoyun's face suddenly turned red, and she pouted, "He Bo, you always like to tease people. How can I compare with my sister? My sister has Yu Da Ge, but I'm still alone."

  "That's because Yunyun has high standards, haha." To liven up the atmosphere, He Yihang continued to tease her, and immediately his tone couldn't hide his pride and arrogance, "Of course, if you want to find a boyfriend as perfect as our family's Ayu, you'll have to work harder and ask your sister for advice more often."

  "Grandpa He," Li Xiaoyun said with a soft rebuke, her gaze returning to He Yunqing's face. "By the way, Grandpa, tomorrow I and Xinxin have agreed to go pick out a birthday gift for you. Is there anything in particular that you like? Don't hesitate to give me some hints, Xiaoyun will prepare something even better."

  "It doesn't matter what gift it is, as long as it's sincere, Yunyun can just prepare something casually." He Yunque spoke again, his expression still kind and gentle.

  Li Xiaoyun nodded immediately, "Grandfather is right, I will prepare myself. I will definitely put my heart into it and give grandfather a satisfactory gift that he likes. I won't disturb you anymore, I'll go busy first."

  She finished speaking and smiled sweetly at everyone before walking away with elegant steps.

  The room gradually quieted down, and the three generations of family members tacitly ended their previous conversation, turning to other topics. The fragrance of tea continued to waft through the air, filling the room with warmth and affection...

  Ling Yuqian, after this experience of "柳暗花明" (a Chinese idiom meaning a sudden turn for the better), she no longer spent her days with a worried and sad face, but instead regained hope and expectation. She often thought about how to get closer to He Wei, unfortunately, day after day, she didn't have the opportunity to see him. He was still like before, whenever there were things to be done, he would instruct Chi Zhenfeng to convey and arrange, making her wonder if the scene of her deeply hugging him in his office that day was just an illusion.

  She gradually returned to her usual melancholy, but she didn't have much time to indulge in self-pity. As the distance to He Yunqing's birthday banquet drew near, preparations became increasingly tense. In a few days, the important day finally arrived.

  The birthday banquet was held at He's house and was scheduled to start at 3 pm. She arrived early with a group of colleagues at He's large estate.
