Chapter Sixty-Seven: I Promised to Cancel the Marriage Contract, Not Because I Don't Like You
After a period of adjustment in the afternoon, Xia Huan's mood has recovered, but she is now thinking about how she will face Huo Qingnan when she goes home after work in the afternoon, anyway, she can't admit that she likes him.
In fact, I don't know when it started, no matter how noisy she and Huo Qingnan were, it wouldn't be long before she forgot about it. She thought that she must have owed Huo Qingnan a debt in her previous life, and she would repay the debt in this life.
Fortunately, when Xia Huan returned to Splendid Yaxuan, Huo Qingnan hadn't returned home yet, and when she found this, her uneasy heart along the way was slightly relieved.
After cleaning up in the room, the servants came to call her to eat, she walked to the dining table and saw that the meals were all set, but she still didn't see Huo Qingnan come back, usually Huo Qingnan has a very strange problem, that is, they eat, breakfast and dinner, the two of them must be together before they can eat, unless Huo Qingnan informs that there is a party at night and will not go home.
So Xia Huan pulled out a chair and sat down, silently counting in her heart, if she counted enough, Huo Qingnan hadn't come back yet, then she wouldn't wait.
She stared at the dishes on the table with a pair of eyes, her hands wrung together, and she pouted.
"Can you see enough?" Huo Qingnan suddenly walked to the dining table, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Xia Huan: "........"
She resisted the urge to look at him, quickly picked up the chopsticks and ate quietly, this dinner, except for Huo Qingnan's words, neither of them spoke.
Huo Qingnan didn't mention what happened in the company, and of course Xia Huan couldn't take the initiative to say it. But the two of them eat like this, which seems very awkward, especially when Xia Huan thinks of sleeping with Huo Qingnan at night, it is simply weird.
She found a problem, when she didn't move to Splendid Yaxuan before, she could still say something from time to time to block him and make him angry, but now that she has moved over, it is completely reversed, it is simply Huo Qingnan's casual words can block her, she jumped to her feet in anger, she is more and more aggrieved, on the contrary, Huo Qingnan is more and more comfortable.
Now that she is in front of Huo Qingnan, she can't let out any anger at all......
It's like a dumb person eating coptis, and there are words of suffering.
The more I thought about it, the lower I was, and I ate white rice all the time, but I didn't eat any dishes.
Suddenly, his forehead was knocked unexpectedly, and Xia Huan suddenly looked up at Huo Qingnan: "Why are you knocking me?
Huo Qingnan withdrew his hand casually: "Can you eat well?" ”
"Why do you like to take care of everything, take care of me and that, and still don't let me eat well?" she replied, pouting.
When Huo Qingnan heard her words, he frowned, and was about to say something, but his mobile phone suddenly rang. He picked up his phone and glanced at it, put down his chopsticks in an instant and stood up.
Xia Huan gave him a strange look. Huo Qingnan just stood up, inadvertently met Xia Huan's gaze, pursed his lips and said, "You eat first, I'll come when I answer the phone." ”
"Oh. Xia Huan always felt that this situation was a bit weird. However, she couldn't say what was strange.
There was a sudden sense of pre-tempest tranquility in my heart......
Huo Qingnan walked out of the living room with his mobile phone, standing in the garden outside the living room, he opened the answer button, and heard Qiao Mengyi's voice, with a hint of coquettishness, "Anan." ”
Hearing this voice, Huo Qingnan's face softened a lot, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "What's wrong?"
"No, it's just that I miss you. ”
"Be nice. Huo Qingnan smiled and said, "I miss you too." ”
"Really?" Qiao Mengyi smiled: "You don't know, you're not by my side, I don't have any taste when I eat, I don't want to eat after eating a little bit, I miss you now." ”
"Haven't you eaten yet?"
"I ate a little bit, I didn't finish half a bowl of rice, I'm thinking about it now...... What are you doing? It would be nice if you were to eat with me right now......"
Hearing this, the smile on Huo Qingnan's face was a little restrained, and he subconsciously glanced back, but didn't answer for a while.
Qiao Mengyi on the other end of the phone couldn't help but be a little anxious, "Anan, are you listening?"
"I'm listening. He replied, then said, "I have a call coming in now, I'll call you back later." ”
"That's right...... Alright then, you go get busy first, I'll wait for your call. ”
"Hmm. Huo Qingnan thought for a while and instructed: "You have to pay attention to your body, and remember, remember the monthly check-up, you can't fall behind, in addition, you can't skip meals, only after eating can you be nutritious, and your body can be good, you know?"
In an instant, Qiao Mengyi laughed again, "Okay, I'll listen to you, I'll do whatever you say." I'm going to eat now. ”
"That's good. ”
Nam. Qiao Mengyi shouted softly, "Anan, I want to tell you..... I love you, I love you very much. ”
After she finished speaking, she waited nervously for Huo Qingnan to answer, but waited for the hang-up sound of the mobile phone......
It turned out that Huo Qingnan had already hung up the phone.
Qiao Mengyi put away her phone, her face showed an aggrieved expression, she could feel that this was the change that had occurred since Huo Qingnan married Xia Huan, she had never been so perfunctory before, but now it is becoming more and more perfunctory.
Just now she said I love you, Huo Qingnan couldn't have not heard it, but ...... No response.
Huo Qingnan's second wife is called Xia Huan, so it's time for her to go back to meet this mysterious second Mrs. Huo, Qiao Mengyi stood on the balcony, looking into the distance, with a hint of thoughtfulness in her eyes.
And Huo Qingnan, who hung up the phone, saw Xia Huan standing at the door of the living room and looking straight at him the moment he turned around. He lowered his eyes instantly, his eyelids jumped, and he was inexplicably ....... Guilty.
And Xia Huan just glanced at him, turned around and went upstairs.
Huo Qingnan stood in place, slowly walked back to the living room, looked at the table, lost his appetite in an instant, and looked at Xia Huan's figure upstairs, his eyes were obscure and complicated.
The next day, the sky in Jincheng was very blue, and white clouds floated in the blue sky.
In a golf course, although wearing a set of casual clothes, after playing golf, there is an assistant handing over a bottle of water, people like them, in addition to talking about business, at the request of customers, to play golf, to do some leisure and entertainment things, this is a common thing.
Su Ruoqing drank the water and handed the remaining half bottle of water back to the assistant, but unexpectedly saw a person: Huo Qingnan.
Originally, I was still a little happy because of this person, and I became unhappy in an instant.
Su Ruoqing was still stunned and looked over there, and then the assistant behind him said to him: "Mr. Su, President Huo also came to this stadium just now, do you think we should go over...... Say hello or something?"
Hearing this, Su Ruoqing looked indifferent: "No." ”
"Mr. Su, although the cooperation between Uniasia and Huo's has been temporarily stopped, it has not been canceled, you are here, Mr. Huo is also here, you are not going, this is not ......"
Su Ruoqing instantly turned his head and glared at the assistant, his face gloomy: "I said no, don't I understand the words?" Tell you, this matter, don't mention it, just don't see it." ”
“........ Oh. ”
In an instant, all the interest was gone, and he stood still and did not move, although he was quiet, but the anger on his face was still so obvious.
The assistant left, Su Ruoqing had just been quiet for two minutes, and the assistant hurriedly walked over, "Mr. Su." ”
"What's your urgency? The tone was thick and impatient, and the assistant couldn't see it, Su Ruoqing was angry, and very angry.
Huo Qingnan only appeared for a while, but Su Ruoqing couldn't help but get angry, he didn't understand, what was so good about Huo Qingnan, why did Xia Huan like him so much? He thought he was no worse than Huo Qingnan, why didn't Xia Huan want to come to him?"
"Your phone rang, and I saw it was a strange call. ”
"Strange call?" Su Ruoqing was stunned for a moment, then took the mobile phone from the assistant's hand and glanced at it, calling from abroad.
Su Ruoqing hesitated for a moment, but still opened the answer button and put it to his ear: "Hey, who?"
"Mr. Su, hello!" A woman's voice rang on the other end of the phone: "I know that Mr. Su has been sending people around to inquire about me and my whereabouts recently, I have said so, does Mr. Su know who I am?"
"Miss Zhao?" Su Ruoqing asked in a low voice, then lowered her voice and looked around.
"Mr. Su is so smart, he guessed it with a little reminder. Zhao Lingling said with a smile.
"What did you call me for?" asked Su Ruoqing.
"I know that Mr. Su has been investigating the divorce between me and Huo Qingnan recently, I don't care about how much Mr. Su has found out, and I care about it. ”
"That's my business, it's none of your business. ”
After receiving Zhao Lingling's call, Su Ruoqing was a little surprised, he wanted to find out why Huo Qingnan and Zhao Lingling divorced, and what kind of situation Huo Qingnan had set up at the expense of falling out with the Zhao family, so that Xia Huan could see Huo Qingnan's true face, but he didn't expect that he would do it so secretively that he would let Zhao Lingling, who was far abroad, know.
Since Zhao Lingling will know, it means that some people are not so reliable.
After Zhao Lingling heard Su Ruoqing's words, she put away her jokes, and instantly became a little unpredictable, "I don't care why Mr. Su investigated me, although you also explained that it has nothing to do with me, then, this matter is related to Huo Qingnan." ”
Su Ruoqing glanced at the assistant, walked away a little in an instant, and lowered her voice, "Zhao Lingling, what do you want to say when you call?"
"I want to tell you, the news you haven't found out, and I won't charge you money, I know everything you want to know. Zhao Lingling's tone couldn't hide her excitement: "Your purpose is Huo Qingnan, it's unfortunate, my purpose is also Huo Qingnan, since the purpose is the same, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, as long as you can make Huo Qingnan pay the price, you can reach a consensus on anything, right?"
Hearing this, Su Ruoqing was a little interested, "When you say this, I'm a little curious, didn't you and Huo Qingnan divorce peacefully at the beginning? ”
"Now that Mr. Su is clear, then I don't say secret words, Huo Qingnan harmed me and I can only stay abroad and suffer, I hate him, he also abolished my hand, I want revenge. ”
"I'm sorry, Miss Zhao, I don't think I can help you, I investigated Huo Qingnan because of a personal matter, as for the grievances between you and Huo Qingnan, it has nothing to do with me, I don't want to participate, and I'm not interested in knowing, so, goodbye." Su Ruoqing said calmly.
"Wait, Mr. Su, actually, you don't have to tell me in such a hurry, you have time to think about it....."
"I don't have to think about this matter, I really don't have any interest in the grudge between you and Huo Qingnan. Su Ruoqing never gave Zhao Lingling a chance to speak, and immediately took down the phone and hung up.
A young lady who has lost her use value, who was abandoned by both the Zhao family and Huo Qingnan, and has been rushed abroad, what is there to pay attention to? Zhao Lingling is the only one who is still worthy of attention, is nothing more than the identity of Huo Qingnan's ex-wife, but to him, it is useless.
Just when Su Ruoqing put away his mobile phone, a crisp and pleasant voice came from behind him, and Su Ruoqing, who was already frowning, frowned even tighter when he heard this voice, "Brother Qing." ”
Xia Chengxi strode over with a baseball cap, and soon arrived at Su Ruoqing's side, as soon as he got closer, he couldn't wait to hold Su Ruoqing's arm, looked up at Su Ruoqing and said with a smile: "Brother Qing, I thought they lied to me, but I didn't expect you to be really here." ”
Su Ruoqing withdrew his hand from Xia Chengxi's hand without a trace, and then smiled gently: "I didn't expect Xixi to be here, are you here alone? Or are you with friends? You just said that I was here, who did you listen to?"
"I came with my dad, he made an appointment with a friend to play here, I didn't have fun at home, but Huo Qingnan also came over just now, he told me, I saw you here, and then I came to look for you. “
"Since you're here with Uncle Xia, why don't you accompany him?" Su Ruoqing thought for a while and said.
"Don't, they're talking to a few big men over there, what am I doing over there, I don't understand what they say, I might as well come over and play with you." ”
Su Ruoqing walked forward little by little, who knew that when he left, Xia Chengxi also followed him, if he had to be side by side with him, it was like a couple. Looking at this, Su Ruoqing was a little helpless, turned her head to look at Xia Chengxi and said, "Xixi, don't forget, you are a girl, girls are reserved, and you can't be too close to a boy, this will be talked about by others." ”
When Xia Chengxi heard Su Ruoqing's words, his mouth instantly flattened, and he was aggrieved, "Didn't you say it at the beginning, even if we can't be husband and wife, I'm still your sister." ”
"Yes, but shouldn't my sister also have a distance?
In an instant, Xia Chengxi stretched out his hand and grabbed Su Ruoqing's arm, looked up at his eyes, and said with a serious face: "Brother Qing, let me tell you, everyone in Jincheng knows that there is a girl named Xia Chengxi who likes Su Ruoqing, and she likes it very much, if you don't believe it, I will prove it to you." ”
Hearing this, Su Ruoqing sighed with a headache.
Xia Chengxi continued to look at Su Ruoqing and said, " Brother Qing, do you know, back then, you wanted to dissolve the marriage contract, because you proposed it, I agreed without objection, I pestered my parents and your parents to say how many good things, for this, I was also snubbed by my father for a month, in fact, I promised very simply, not that I don't like you, in fact, I want to tell you, because you said that the marriage you want is that two people who love each other have feelings and are not bound by anything, and we are together by two parents when we were not yet born, so, it is restricted, and there is no emotion, so, for, your words, I agreed very simply, I swore in my heart at the time, even if I don't have two parents, I must be your wife Su Ruoqing, and I will work hard to sit in Mrs. Su's position. ”
Hearing this, Su Ruoqing was stunned, looked at her for a while, and finally stretched out her hand and patted her head, "Xixi, in fact, you can be reluctant in everything, only the matter of feelings cannot be forced, don't waste your efforts on me, it will delay you." ”
"But, Brother Qing, I didn't do anything, I just ..... I just like you. ”
"But Sissy, you're going to get me in a little bit of trouble like this, and you're stopping the boys who like you. ”
"That's easy, I like you. ”
Su Ruoqing took Xia Chengxi back to sit inside, then opened a bottle of water for her, and looked at her: "You chase me like this, what if the girl I like misunderstands?"
"What? Brother Qing, do you have a favorite girl? You didn't lie to me?"
"Well, I kid you not. ”
Xia Chengxi took the water bottle and looked at him blankly, a little sluggish, his eyes innocent and aggrieved.
At this moment, in the Huo's planning department, Xia Huan was in front of the computer desk, carefully checking the report. Suddenly, the computer screen was blocked by a folder.
Xia Huan looked up, Zhou Mu was standing in front of her desk, holding the document blocking her computer in her hand, she looked at Zhou Mu for some reason, and asked, "Team leader...... What's wrong?"
Zhou Mu looked at Xia Huan carefully, with a complicated expression, and then put the folder in her hand: "At this time, Mr. Huo called and said that the documents needed. ”
"Mr. Huo's documents, what are you going to do for me?"
"That's right, Mr. Huo is talking about things outside, the document has just been typed out, and you need to send it to him for signature, I heard that it is..... Mr. Huo asked you to send it by name. ”
Xia Huan looked surprised, "You're not wrong, do you?"
"Yes, it's you. Zhou Mu said again: "Fang Tezhu called and said, let Xia Huan of the planning department send it, it's you." ”
Hearing this, Xia Huan didn't have time to think about what kind of wind Huo Qingnan smoked, so he had to agree first, so as not to talk about it again, and there would be gossip tomorrow. But Zhou Mu's words just now had already been heard clearly by everyone in the office.
Xia Huan took the document and suddenly asked, "However, team leader, do you know this document....... Where am I going?"
"Golf course, Huo is there, you just leave it to Fang Tesuke, he is waiting for you at the golf gate. Zhou Mu looked at her and said.
Hearing this, Xia Huan picked up his bag, took the documents and strode out of the planning department.
Out of the company, Xia Huan quickly stopped a taxi, took the documents and went straight to the golf course, at this moment Assistant Fang hung up the phone and walked to Huo Qingnan's side: "Mr. Huo, my wife is on the way here." ”
"It's good to be here. Huo Qingnan looked at the club in his hand, quickly swung a shot, and then asked, "By the way, is Miss Xia still there?"
"Yes, she is still sitting and chatting with Mr. Su. ”
"Alright, you go and wait for her at the entrance, and come and tell me. ”
"Okay, Mr. Huo. After Fang Yan finished speaking, he retreated.
