Chapter 113: A dilemma
After Pei Huamo got on the plane and flew to the United States, Yan Ximo was a little unaccustomed to staying at home.
Because she had been with Pei Huamo a few days ago, she could basically see the person she liked as soon as she woke up every day, so when she got up the next morning and couldn't see that person, she felt a little lost in her heart.
When she first woke up, she didn't react a little, and it wasn't until she saw the ash placed on the head of the bed that she had a real feeling that she had really returned to China.
After eating breakfast alone, Yan Ximo returned to the room again, looking at the pile of gifts he bought back in a daze.
If it weren't for those gifts, which were really piled up in her room, she really felt that the few days she and Pei Huamo went to the United States was just a beautiful dream for her.
After being stunned for a while, Yan Ximo began to organize his things.
She doesn't have many friends, but Du Wanxin must be her friend, and the little awkward worm in her family are all good people to her.
After picking out the gifts of these two people separately, Yan Ximo tidied up his clothes.
Just then, her phone rang, "I heard that Snow White is running away, and Little Red Riding Riding Hood is worried about the big bad wolf......"
Yan Ximo was startled by the sudden sound, but quickly reacted again, picked up the phone, and slid the answer button.
"Hello?"
As soon as the phone was connected, Huo Zhiyan's anxious voice came: "Ximo Ximo, I heard that you returned to China, why didn't you tell me!" ”
"Well, I just came back yesterday, and I haven't had time to pack my things yet, so I haven't told anyone about this!"
"Well, I was busy some time ago, so I never had time to play with you, and then after I was almost busy, I heard that you went abroad, so I missed it!"
There was infinite pity in Huo Yiyan's voice, and Yan Ximo could imagine it on the phone, the pitiful expression on his face now.
Yan Ximo, who was a little soft-hearted, hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay, I know you're busy, and I'm not back?" ”
"Then when are you free, let's go out and play!"
"Rebel, why are you in such a hurry? My things haven't been packed yet. ”
Yan Ximo very tactfully rejected his invitation, hoping that he could understand what he meant.
But Huo Yiyan has never known what euphemism is, let alone in front of the person he likes.
If you don't even know how to take the initiative and be cheeky in pursuing a girl, then you won't have a chance at all!
Huo Zhiyan also understood this truth, so he directly took it for granted and said: "If you don't have time today, then we can go tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow." ”
"Uh...... Well, I'll tell you when I have time. Yan Ximo, who really had no reason to refuse, had no choice but to implement the procrastination trick now.
"Okay, then you get busy first, I won't bother you!"
"Hmm!"
After Yan Ximo hung up the phone, she felt a little embarrassed in her heart, she felt that she couldn't delay Huo Zhiyan so much now, but she was embarrassed to say it directly.
After all, the person she liked was her titular uncle, and she really couldn't say the reason for this refusal.
Now she only hopes that her uncle can come back from the United States as soon as possible, as if as long as he is there, she has a backbone.
She doesn't have to think about it, she knows that the news of her return to China must have been leaked by Pei Li and her grandmother.
She knew that her grandmother had always wanted to match Huo Yiyan with her, and she also promised that her grandmother would try to have more contact with Huo Yiyan.
But this idea only came when her feelings were not reciprocated, and now that her relationship with her uncle had stabilized, she didn't want anyone to come and intervene.
Caught in a dilemma, I was in no mood to pack up my things at all, so I simply lay back on the bed and forced myself not to think about these things.
However, there are some things that have to be faced after all, and if you escape for a while, you can't escape for a lifetime.
In the next day and two days, Yan Ximo did not receive a call from Pei Huamo.
Although she knew that the time difference between the two places was different, and she might miss it like this, but looking at the mobile phone without a missed call, her mood was slightly depressed.
But no matter how sluggish he is, Yan Ximo will not show it on his face, let alone to outsiders.
So when she was in front of Pei Li, Yan Ximo still looked like a good girl, smiling and staying by Pei Li's side.
At breakfast that day, there were only two people at the table, Pei Li and Yan Ximo, Yan Ximo has always been the kind of person who doesn't talk much, and he tries to minimize his presence in front of Pei Li.
Because when facing Pei Li, she has an inexplicable weakness, just like a child who has done something wrong, and she is very worried about being discovered.
Yan Ximo lowered his head and ate his breakfast, wanting to leave here as soon as possible, but Pei Li had a bunch of questions to ask her.
"Ximo, how did you go to the United States with your uncle? Did you make a custom dress? ”
Yan Ximo was frightened by Pei Li's voice, and was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I had a lot of fun with my uncle over there, and I also ordered a dress!" ”
She can now talk less and talk less, just in case something goes wrong.
As if on purpose, Pei Li took the coffee and asked casually: "Yes, since you have come back from the United States, why haven't you seen that kid from the Huo family come to play with you?" ”
"The day after I came back, he called me!"
As soon as she heard the news, Pei Li's face flashed with excitement, but she quickly returned to normal, "Then why didn't you go out with him?" ”
"Because I haven't packed my things that day, and the jet lag hasn't been reversed, I said I'll go out in two days!"
Pei Li nodded knowingly, with a look of approval, "Also, you went to the United States to play around, you should be tired, and it is good to rest at home for two days." ”
"Well, so I told him to come back to me in two days!"
"Okay, okay, you young people's affairs, just discuss it with you young people, I, as a grandmother, just care about it, don't think too much!"
Pei Li also knew that this matter was in a hurry, she knew that the child at the end of the river was still a little young, and everything could be done slowly.
"I know my grandmother is good to me, I don't think about it that much! I didn't mean to blame my grandmother. ”
"It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have Grandma just wants you to be happy! ”
Yan Ximo drank the last sip of juice and continued: "Grandma, I know your hard work, so you don't have to worry too much about me." I've eaten, so I'll go back and rest first. ”
"Okay, okay, you go back, just go out with that kid from the Huo family to have more fun, anyway, you're still young now, it's good to go out and see more!"
"Well, I know grandma, I'll go back first!"
After finishing speaking, Yan Ximo stood up directly from the dining table and walked towards the stairs, but the pace was a little faster than usual.
Yan Ximo was really afraid that if he stayed like this again, sooner or later he would be exposed, his grandmother had high hopes for her and Huo Zhiyan, and he was destined to live up to this high hope.
This is really not the result she wants to see, so at this time she misses Pei Huamo very much.
At this time, Pei Huamo had just been busy with a day's work and lay down on the bed in the hotel.
Things weren't particularly smooth on his side, and the problems he thought could be solved quickly were now a bit tricky.
He knew that he would open his mouth with the other party and put forward many conditions with him, but he didn't expect the other party to be so greedy.
Now he urgently needs the shares in the hands of the other party, so he has to lower his status and negotiate with the other party.
It's just that there hasn't been any progress yet, and things are suddenly at an impasse.
But this kind of thing can't be rushed, you can only think of a way to deal with it.
Yan Ximo and Pei Huamo are not having a good time, but two of them have been very proud recently.
After Pei Yuyuan learned that Pei Huamo went to the United States on a business trip, her whole mood was much happier.
She is not so anxious about revenge on Yan Ximo.
Pei Yuyuan felt that it would be too cheap for her to directly expose all these things and let Pei Li drive Yan Ximo out directly, so she has been thinking about ways to make her fate even more miserable recently.
She wants to take revenge on Yan Ximo little by little for the pain she has suffered during this time.
After careful planning, Pei Yuyuan and her mother set up a series of plans, and she wanted to make Yanxi ruined.
Through the performance of the two people in the United States, Pei Yuyuan can be sure that Yan Ximo must have had something to do with his uncle, and at this time, Pei Li wanted to match the marriage with the Huo family and let her marry Huo Yiyan directly, which was too cheap for her.
If at this time, my grandmother finds that the marriage tool she has carefully prepared is no longer such a pure woman, and the situation must be very funny at that time!
Yan Ximo was not aware of all this conspiracy at all, she never thought that there would be such a day!
However, at this time, Huo Zhiyan called her again.
After the phone rang, Yan Ximo glanced at the contact on it and connected the phone a little helplessly.
"Hey, Rebel, do you have anything to do with me?"
"Ximo, are you free tomorrow? I'd like to ask you out for a meal. ”
"Tomorrow......" Yan Ximo stretched his tone, looking embarrassed.
"What's the matter, do you have something to do tomorrow?"
"No, I don't have anything to do, it's just that I ......"
Before Yan Ximo's words were finished, he was directly interrupted by Huo Zhiyan, "If you don't have anything to do, then let's go to dinner tomorrow, even if you have something to do, I can accompany you." ”
Huo Zhiyan directly blocked Yan Ximo's back road, so that she didn't have the slightest reason to refuse.
"Well, well, are we going to have lunch or dinner tomorrow?"
"In order to punish you for not being in the country for so long, I specially asked for a day off, will you accompany me for a day tomorrow?"
"What?" Yan Ximo was a little reluctant.
"What's wrong? You don't want to? ”
"No, I just think you're so busy with work, there's no need to take a day off to invite me to dinner, let's just have lunch!"
"It's okay, if it's someone else, forget it, because the object is you, so it's worth it for me to ask for this leave!"
"Hehe, yes!" Yan Ximo smiled a little awkwardly at his sudden sensational confession, she really didn't know how to respond to his feelings.
