Master Zhan, your daughter has gone out to catch ghosts again.

Chapter 266 An Encounter with Huo Kongye

The two-day weekend ended quickly, and Zhan Guiting arrived at the film set on Sunday afternoon to pick up the four little ones.

Sunday happened to be the day the crew wrapped up filming. When Zhan Guiting arrived, YoYo was celebrating their wrap with the crew, and Zhan Guiting had no choice but to join in.

Zhan Guiting's arrival made the atmosphere a little awkward, and everyone became more reserved and cautious.

Soon, filming wrapped up, and YoYo had cake all over her face.

As soon as filming wrapped on his new drama, Zhan Juzhou rushed to CCTV for rehearsals for the New Year's Eve Gala.

On New Year's Eve, the entire Zhan family gathered together, sitting on the sofa to watch the New Year's Eve gala, except for Zhan Juzhou.

Yoyo didn't seem very interested; she was fiddling with a Lego set that was taller than her.

During the war, he would sit cross-legged to the side, handing her tools. He would hand her whichever tool she wanted, making her a true tool person.

The triplets sat nearby watching, with Zhan Jingyang occasionally grumbling a few words.

The uncles would come over from time to time to feed them snacks and fruit.

“Sweetie, come here, Uncle San will be out soon. He’s the next performer. Come on, sit on Grandma’s lap and watch.”

Qin Yimo rushed over, picked up Youyou, and sat back on the sofa, waiting for Zhan Juzhou to appear.

Soon, Zhan Juzhou appeared.

Zhan Juzhou wore a dark red haute couture suit with a black gilded shirt underneath. His slightly tousled hair was casual yet orderly, exuding a touch of unruliness. His unadorned face was handsome and flamboyant, radiating youthful energy.

"Come on, let's take a family photo while Zhan Juzhou is out of the country."

Grandpa Zhan had already prepared the tripod and camera.

Zhan Guiting took Youyou from Qin Yimo's arms.

The family stood in front of the television, leaving a space for Zhan Juzhou on screen.

After adjusting the camera settings and setting the countdown, Grandpa Zhan ran into the group and hugged Grandma Zhan tightly, giving off the vibe of a domineering old CEO.

With a "click," happiness was captured in a moment, and it continues forever.

At one o'clock in the morning, after Yoyo and the triplets had fallen asleep, Zhan Guiting went to the study to call Wen Zijin.

……

After washing up in Zhan Jinxi's room, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

I don't know how many times I sat up, opened my phone, and saw countless blessings on various social media platforms.

Xiling Changxian bombarded her with several messages, but Zhan Jinxi didn't reply to any of them. The others were all group replies because she simply couldn't keep up with them.

Zhan Jinxi stared at Huo Kongye's chat box for a long time.

The last time we exchanged messages was several months ago, and we haven't been in touch since.

……

The next day, the first day of the new year, everyone was supposed to be busy, but in order to spend time with Yoyo, everyone put their work aside and the whole family went out to have some fun with her.

Wherever the whole family goes, they become the center of attention.

It's so captivating, it's like watching a wealthy family, a whole extended family out having fun.

But the reality is, it's not just a "seem" situation, it's exactly as they imagined.

When Zhan Jinxi saw the ice cream and was about to buy it, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Huo Kongye?

He was also holding the hand of a little boy who looked about six or seven years old.

Zhan Jinxi didn't think much of it and hurriedly prepared to chase after them. Then, remembering something, he turned back to greet Qin Yimo so they wouldn't worry, and then quickly followed after them.

"Huo Kongye!"

At the corner, Zhan Jinxi called out to Huo Kongye.

Huo Kong turned around, and the little boy also turned around, staring blankly at Zhan Jinxi, as if he were looking at air, indifferent and without any emotion.

"What a coincidence, you're at the amusement park too." Zhan Jinxi smiled and walked towards him.

"Mm." Huo Kong nodded slightly in response, his eyes lowered, not looking at her.

"Is this your younger brother?" Zhan Jinxi asked.

"Ah."

Zhan Jinxi noticed the aloofness emanating from him but didn't seem to care. "Won't you introduce me?"

“My brother doesn’t like strangers.” Huo Kong also kept his eyes straight ahead, his tone distant and aloof.

"Oh, is it so?"

Zhan Jinxi still refused to believe it. She squatted down, took the little boy's hand, and said, "Hello, little friend, my name is Zhan Jinxi. I'm your brother's friend. Can you tell me your name?"

The little boy looked at Zhan Jinxi, seemingly not understanding what he was saying. His expression was blank, his eyes were lifeless, and he made no movement, letting Zhan Jinxi hold his little hand.

Huo Kong was quite shocked by his younger brother's lack of resistance.

He wasn't at all averse to Zhan Jinxi's touch!

Zhan Jinxi looked at the little boy, who remained silent and with a blank expression, looking very strange, like a beautiful little puppet.

Suddenly remembering something, Zhan Jinxi looked at Huo Kongye with a questioning look in his eyes: "Your brother can't speak."

Huo Kong glanced at her impatiently.

Okay, I misunderstood. It must be that I'm shy and introverted.

They are the complete opposite of triplets.

"Hey, did you come back alone? Where's my sister-in-law?"

"The boss has a mission."

It was because Wen Zijin took on that task that Huo Kong had time to come back and spend time with his younger brother.

"Oh~" Zhan Jinxi drawled out the last syllable, as if thinking about something. "Alright then, you guys have fun, I'm leaving now."

She hoped he would call her back, but he didn't.

Zhan Jinxi gave a wry smile, turned around, and suddenly his clothes were tugged, followed by a childish voice, "Huo Yan."
