Chapter 57: Growing Affection

FEELING HER CONCERNED EYES, HUO JUE SUDDENLY PUT DOWN THE IPAD, HE TURNED HIS HEAD AND ASKED, "SOMETHING?" ”

"Huh? Hehehehe, it's fine. With a smirk, Fang Xiaoye looked away in embarrassment, her whole face turned red, she was also very annoyed, every time she looked at her, she would blush very spinelessly, and she didn't know what she was blushing about.

Huo Jue pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing, and asked calmly: "It's rare to go back to the new area, do you want to go and see your mother?" ”

"Got time? If the time comes, it's gone. Fang Xiaoye's face was full of joy.

Who knows, Huo Jue said mercilessly: "There is no time." ”

"......" Fang Xiaoye was really speechless, "Then why are you asking me what to do, do you want to tease me, it's fun?" ”

Huo Jue nodded and said, "It's fun." ”

His expression was so serious, but what he said was so unbeatable, Fang Xiaoye admired him very much.

Huo Jue's eyes suddenly skimmed the hand she put on her knee, the originally slender and well-proportioned fingers were swollen into steamed buns because of chilblains, her index finger was thicker twice, her little finger was thicker than her ring finger, and the most serious thing was the thumb joint, which was cracked, as if it might burst the wound and bleed at any time.

"Why do you get frostbite on your hands?"

Fang Xiaoye subconsciously retracted her hand into her sleeve, she also knew that her hand was so ugly that she couldn't see anyone, "Well, it's nothing, it's old every year, and this year is good." ”

Huo Jue frowned at the moment, the more she disagreed, the more unpleasant he became.

"Wear gloves and keep warm." He reminded.

"Well, I know, I just forgot about it today."

Huo Jue glanced at her, not at all.

The car drove to the toll booth and was about to leave the city, Fang Xiaoye suddenly saw a cool car parked at the fork in front of him, and honked his horn at them.

"Wow, that's a cool car." Fang Xiaoye leaned on the window and looked out, it was an elongated car, taller than ordinary cars, the front of the car was more like an off-road vehicle, the whole body was bright black, at a glance, he knew that it was not small, and he couldn't see this kind of car on the road at all, "Eh, that car is following us, driving behind us all the time." ”

Huo Jue looked at her all the way to the back, and said dissatisfiedly: "If you don't sit down again, believe it or not, I'll throw you out?" ”

"......" said that if you turn your face, you will turn your face, how can a man turn his face, is it faster than turning a book?

Huo Jue said again: "What's so strange, didn't you sit last time?" ”

"Last time? Which time? ”

"The time you were kidnapped."

Fang Xiaoye suddenly realized, "Oh, it turned out to be the car, you asked someone to borrow it?" ”

Huo Jue threw her a roll of his eyes again, "He asked me to borrow it." ”

"Ahem, ahem, oh, okay."

There was no word all the way, the car was warm and quiet, Fang Xiaoye slowly couldn't open his eyes, and kept dozing off.

The air outlet of the air conditioner was facing her face, and although Huo Jue looked disgusted with her, he still thoughtfully lowered the shutter of the air outlet. His eyes always inadvertently aimed at her hands, she followed Fang Lan to sell fish for a living, and in winter, her hands were soaked in cold water for a long time, how could she not get frostbite.

Sometimes Huo Jue will also reflect on whether it will be too strict to ask Fang Xiaoye with his own high standards, after all, Fang Xiaoye's birth is there, and her character has been formed in the living environment for more than 20 years, and it is impossible for her to change along with her essence because the living environment changes overnight.

I don't know when he started, he always had such a concern in his heart, worried about whether she would teach her son badly, worried about whether she would study hard, worried about whether she could be admitted to college, and worried that even he felt inexplicable. He wanted her to get better than anyone else, and in addition to being conducive to his son's growth, there seemed to be other reasons, and as for what it was, he didn't figure it out himself.

I don't know when he started, he began to have some expectations for her, he looked forward to seeing her, even if it was a bickering, it was fun, maybe it was from sneaking into the kitchen in the middle of the night to find food, maybe it was from watching meteor showers together, or maybe after she moved out of the presidential palace, he always felt that he would miss her from time to time, want to see her, and even more want to tease her.

Thinking too much, his hand unconsciously moved to her side, he stretched out his fingers, and pressed lightly on her swollen hand, the area with chilblains turned white, and as soon as the hand was released, it was congested and recovered.

Fang Xiaoye seemed to feel the pain, she opened her eyes suddenly, Huo Jue maintained the same posture and didn't dare to move, only to see her eyes wide open and look at him, and then slowly, her eyelids were crisp again. He watched her open and close her eyes, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Suddenly, the car jolted, and Fang Xiaoye's body tilted and fell down.

Huo Jue moved his body and sat down, almost instinctively, he raised his shoulders and caught her smashed head steadily, she turned her neck to find a more comfortable position, and continued to sleep.

On the way out of the city, Fang Xiaoye was almost sleeping, crooked his neck, opened his mouth, and leaned on Huo Jue's shoulder and slept dimly.

At the police station of the new district, the car stopped at the door, and Huo Jue said: "Chen Geng, you follow her today, just go back to the city before dark." ”

Chen Geng nodded in command, "Yes, Your Excellency." ”

Chen Geng's voice was relatively loud, Fang Xiaoye woke up suddenly, she opened her eyes, sat up straight at the same time, her eyes blinked in confusion, the appearance of pretending to be calm, just like a student who secretly slept in class, suddenly woke up by a sound and pretended not to be asleep.

"Huh? Arrived? She asked with hindsight.

Huo Jue sighed, shook his head and said, "Wipe the saliva from your mouth before going in." As he spoke, he deliberately pulled out two pieces of paper with a big movement and wiped his shoulders in front of her.

Fang Xiaoye's face was so embarrassed that her face turned red, she looked at his shoulder, there was a small wet place, the dark color of the suit material, it was very obvious after it was wet. She was ashamed, and she smirked vigorously.

Huo Jue glared at her and said, "After finishing your errands, let Chen Geng take you there, you can accompany your mother to have a lunch and go back to the city before dark, don't stay too long, you still have to go to class tomorrow." ”

"Oh...... Thank you. Fang Xiaoye's heart was warm, and then he gave him a kind smile, from the heart.

Huo Jue was stunned for a moment, a little dazed, he immediately turned his head and said, "Jian Feng, let's change cars and go." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Huo Jue and Jian Feng left in the car behind, they were going to the new district government, and they had more important things to do.

Fang Xiaoye asked, "Brother Chen, is Huo Jue very busy these days?" ”

Chen Geng said: "Your Excellency is very busy every day. ”

Fang Xiaoye: "I mean, in the past few days when the scandal came out, hasn't he slept well?" ”

Chen Geng nodded, "Well, Your Excellency hasn't been back to the Presidential Palace for three days and two nights, except for going to the Western-style building to see the little master, he is in the Central Park Office." ”

Fang Xiaoye was a little surprised, "Why don't you go back, no matter how busy you are, you have to rest." ”

Chen Geng: "First, there are indeed a lot of things, and second, the gate of the presidential palace was crowded with reporters in the days when there was a scandal, and it was inconvenient to enter and exit. ”

It turned out that this was the case, Fang Xiaoye felt very sorry for him, he was so busy and took the time to look at the little stones, and he felt moved when he thought about it.

At this time, the doorman of the police station came over and asked, "Are you in there to do business?" Please drive the car to the temporary parking space on the left side of the door, thank you for your cooperation. ”

Chen Geng nodded and slowly drove the car in.
