"It'd be best not to meet him at all, but if you do, stay away from him." Huo Jingting tightened his hold on her hand, agreeing but then thought of something else, "His birthday is coming up soon, join me in going back that day."
Gu Nanqiao didn't immediately catch on to who "he" was and asked in a daze, "Whose birthday?"
Right after asking, she caught the last two words of his sentence, going back.
Where else could he mean by going back?
"Is it…" She bit her lip corner, asking somewhat awkwardly, "your father's birthday?"
She knew their father-son relationship was strained, but as a junior, it wasn't proper to address him directly by name, so she had to ask this way.
Huo Jingting's thoughts flew far away, he nodded indifferently, "Hmm."
Once his family was mentioned, her thoughts inevitably drifted towards Mu Wanhua.
