CHAPTER 76: CHAPTER 76: THIS IS MY STEPMOM

When Ye Anxin hung up the phone and turned to look at Huo Jiantian, she found Huo Jiantian pouting, looking very aggrieved at her.

Ye Anxin asked with a laugh, "Little thing, what’s wrong with you?"

Huo Jiantian furrowed his little brows tightly, "Sister Anxin, do you care about the person on the phone just now? Is he your boyfriend, and do you love him?"

Ye Anxin rolled her eyes at him and said amusedly, "What do you know at your age? Love or not, it’s not something you should be asking about at your age! You should focus on studying hard now!"

Huo Jiantian put his hands on his hips, pouting, and said unhappily, "I’m not small, I’m five years old!"

Ye Anxin patted his head and said perfunctorily, "Alright, alright, you’re not small anymore! Our little Tiantian has grown up! Let’s go, we’ll take the bus to your dad’s company!" With that, she took Huo Jiantian’s hand and walked towards the bus stop.

Huo Jiantian was led forward by Ye Anxin, filled with concern, "Sister Anxin, I don’t like the uncle who called you just now!"

Ye Anxin turned around in surprise and asked, puzzled, "Why don’t you like him?"

Huo Jiantian’s left eyebrow was raised high, saying angrily, "He always wants you to coax him! You’ve never coaxed me like that! So I’m not happy, I don’t like him!"

Thinking about how cautious Ye Anxin was while talking on the phone earlier, coaxing and convincing, he felt a sour displeasure in his heart.

Although he was young, he wasn’t stupid. From Anxin’s demeanor, he knew she cared about the person on the other end! But who exactly was that person on the phone?

He heard Anxin casually call him uncle? Could it be Sister Anxin’s uncle?

Ye Anxin looked back, squatted down, and couldn’t help pinching his cute little nose, saying with a smile, "He’s just like Tiantian, like a child, so he needs coaxing! Didn’t I just coax you too? Don’t be unbalanced in your heart!"

Huo Jiantian retorted, "But he’s not a child, he’s your uncle!"

"Cough, cough...!" Hearing the word "uncle," Ye Anxin accidentally choked on her own saliva, coughing uncomfortably.

Seeing this, Huo Jiantian hurriedly patted her back gently, asking with concern, "Sister Anxin, are you okay? What’s wrong?"

"I’m fine, I’m fine!" Ye Anxin steadied her breath, swallowed her saliva hard, and felt much better in her throat.

"Let’s go! If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late, and there won’t be any seats to eat!" Ye Anxin didn’t want to discuss this topic further, so she took his hand and walked to the roadside, not daring to wait for a bus, and directly hailed a taxi to head to Huo Tian Group.

Little did they know that as soon as they left, a figure immediately followed behind.

The two of them arrived at Huo Tian Group, and Huo Jiantian took Ye Anxin straight to the CEO’s office on the top floor.

As usual, Huo Jiantian didn’t knock, he just pushed the door open and went in.

When Ye Anxin entered the CEO’s office, Huo Junmo was talking with a man, discussing something.

Huo Jiantian pointed at the young man talking with Huo Junmo, proudly introducing, "Sister Anxin, this is the new secretary my dad hired. Isn’t he handsome!"

Ye Anxin gave a shy smile, nodded at him, and greeted, "Hello!"

After introducing Secretary Zhao, Huo Jiantian then introduced Ye Anxin to him, "Secretary Zhao, this is my stepmother, Ye Anxin! Isn’t she beautiful?"

"Cough, cough...!" Just as she steadied her breath, it got chaotic again, and Ye Anxin started coughing uncomfortably.

Huo Junmo gave Huo Jiantian a warning glare and handed the document in his hand to Secretary Zhao, "Alright, you can leave now!"

"Yes!" Secretary Zhao accepted the order and turned to leave.
