Chapter Seventy-Four: Love Grinds
Chapter Seventy-Four: Love Grinds
After the start of school, the Xi Yizheng brothers and sisters still lived back in Huayi Garden. Since Huo Jun picked out on the day of the Lantern Festival, Xi Yizheng tried to avoid him as much as possible. When she went to Dongfang Luming's house, she would communicate with the teacher on the phone in advance, and ask for the information she needed, intentionally or unintentionally, if Huo Jun was there, she immediately decided to cancel the original plan and squat at home instead. A few times later, Dongfang Luming also understood Xi Yizheng's motives, one time it was clear that Huo Jun was there, but he deliberately did not disclose it to Xi Yizheng, and sure enough, half an hour later, Xi Yizheng appeared at the door of Dongfang's house, and it was Huo Jun who came out to greet her.
"You, why are you there?" Xi Yizheng was dumbfounded.
"What are you hiding?" Huo Jun was really a little angry this time, took the food box in Xi Yizheng's hand, and walked to the kitchen of Dongfang's house without looking back.
Xi Yizheng pursed his lips, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, then collapsed his shoulders, sighed secretly and followed him into the kitchen.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that." Xi Yizheng followed behind Huo Jun, and he didn't dare to raise his head, for fear that he would face his angry face.
"What do you mean?" Huo Jun turned around, and when he saw her like this, he was angry and funny, so he didn't rush to ask the reason, so he put his hands around his chest and waited for her answer.
"I, I'm not trying to hide from you. It's justβ" She explained softly, her eyes cast into the distance, she paused, the confusion in her eyes made Huo Jun who bumped into her suddenly feel distressed, damn he took two steps forward and reached out to support her slender body, "If my proposal really makes you so embarrassed, just because I didn't say it." The tenderness in Huo Jun's eyes flashed away, returning to his previous coldness. He didn't mean to force her, he knew that she was still too young, maybe he couldn't bear the feelings he had accumulated over the years, or perhaps, he sighed softly in his heart, he thought that he couldn't be as thoughtful and considerate as some men did to women, and the pressure of his work made him unable to have too much time to devote to romantic love. Just like what Xia Wei said when she left herself: no woman wants to marry a career.
"No, Huo Jun." Xi Yizheng obviously felt his lonely tone for a moment, and hurriedly stopped his body from leaving, "I just want to say, I don't know how to fall in love, if, if you don't mind my clumsiness, I'm willing to try." Xi Yizheng finished what he was thinking in one breath, and looked at Huo Jun's face eagerly, wanting to read his answer from his face. Just now, she was just afraid that her jerkiness would make him lose patience. The failed marriage in her previous life made her hesitate to move forward with her feelings in this life, and she didn't dare to taste it again.
When Huo Jun heard this, he looked at Xi Yizheng, who hung his head and didn't dare to face him, and after a while, he sighed lightly and took her into his arms, "I don't know what you're worried about." Does being my girlfriend really bother you so much? "No mistakes, no skipping words.
Xi Yizheng buried his head in his chest and shook his head lightly.
"In that case, leave everything to me." Huo Jun's tone was full of affirmation.
Okay, then give it a try.
Oriental House β
"So, you're going to open an online store first?" Dongfang Luming listened to Xi Yizheng's plan, and said after a while: "It's okay, but in terms of online stores, I don't understand your teacher at all, and your pressure is bound to be great." β
"I'll take care of that." Huo Jun put down the teacup in his hand, "Huo's has a special online sales department, and I will send someone to assist you then." Do not worry. β
"Okay." Xi Yizheng gladly accepted, she was worried about the lack of guidance.
"Okay, that's it. Find an auspicious day and open an online store first. By the way, the promotional picture is still to choose the finished jadeite products that are suitable for the public price, don't pass on those superb treasures and the like, so as not to attract attention. Dongfang Luming nagged about all aspects of Xi Yizheng's attention.
Xi Yizheng smiled lightly and accepted them one by one, "Got it, teacher." I have counted. β
Huo Jun chuckled, "What's the matter, nag is addicted? If you want to be a father, you have one with her. His words made Dongfang Luming jump to his feet, "Hey, stinky boy, I didn't have any worries with you, did I?" No mistakes, a lot of words - you're jealous, aren't you? There are many words without mistakes, I have a good relationship with Zheng, haha, I envy you to death"
"Dongfang, if you don't want me to help, just say it." Huo Jun ignored his shouting at all, and continued to pour a cup of the best Pu'er to enjoy it comfortably. Xi Yizheng was embarrassed by Dongfang Luming's ridicule, so he immediately dropped a sentence: "I'll go to the kitchen and get some snacks." In an instant, it had disappeared into the living room.
Out of the corner of his eye, Huo Jun caught a glimpse of her running away, and shook his head with a smile.
"Hey, I said, how did you get her? I think she's actually stubborn. Dongfang Luming stopped arguing with Huo Jun at this time, put his right hand on Huo Jun's shoulder, and teased narrowly.
"What? Do you want to learn? It's simple, I'll pay you the tuition. Huo Jun stretched out his left hand towards Dongfang Luming, and teased in the opposite way.
"Cut." Dongfang Luming sat back in his seat stupidly, "Seriously, I really don't have any tricks." He spread out his arms, spread them on the backrest, closed his eyes and sighed in a low voice, "Why do you think that woman is so difficult?" I've explained it to her so many times, and I still don't believe me."
"I knew today, why bother in the first place" Huo Jun dropped a sentence lightly, no longer paying attention to the other party's long sighs, got up and went to the kitchen to see his little woman, I don't know when I was ashamed to come out.
Dongfang Luming shook his head when he heard this, yes, why bother in the first place, everything was self-inflicted. Since she wants to regain her feelings for herself, she naturally has to pay.
"When the online store of Zheng Zheng is almost over, I want to go to the United States." Dongfang Luming pondered for a long time, raised his eyes and announced to the two intimate emotional students opposite, he didn't believe it, and ran to the United States to find her sincerely, she could still be so stubborn not to see herself and refuse to forgive herself. Aren't all women soft-hearted? Why is his woman so stubborn
Xi Yizheng looked at Huo Jun, and when he saw his calm appearance, he knew in his heart, he must have known.
"Teacher, when do you plan to come back this time?" Although she didn't understand why Dongfang Luming had often run to the United States in the past two years, she was more diligent than the Dongfang family. Could it be that you really chased your wife?
"Not necessarily, let's get in touch then" Dongfang Luming drank all the tea in the cup, trying to hide his embarrassed face. Huo Jun's eyes really made people want to beat him.
Xi Yizheng nodded. Seeing that Dongfang Luming didn't want to explain to her, he gave up. Other people's privacy, she has no hobby of inquiry.
"Cough" Huo Jun cleared his throat, "Let's find a way to force her to return to China"
As soon as the words were spoken, the other two people had different expressions in an instant. Xi Yizheng suddenly felt in his heart: sure enough, it was a woman, and Dongfang Luming almost didn't jump to his feet, glanced at Xi Yizheng, and saw that she didn't have any curiosity, so he nodded indiscriminately, "I know, you kid's mouth is tightened for me." β
"Sooner or later, you know, why bother with such twisting and pinching." Huo Jun ignored his shame at all, and stabbed loudly: "What's more, it's not a bad thing to let your apprentice know, maybe you can even borrow her to help you." β
Dongfang Luming's eyes widened, and after looking at Huo Jun without saying a word for a few seconds, he leaned back on the sofa in a dejected manner, and said weakly: "Don't I feel ashamed" It's more than forty, and I can't even handle a woman.
"Teacher, since I am your apprentice, equivalent to your daughter, what can't I say in front of me?" Xi Yizheng persuaded softly, if he didn't even come over to this level himself, wouldn't he have to face it even worse next time.
Dongfang Luming was sullen for a long time, and he talked about the relationship between him and the woman that had been entangled for decades. After Xi Yizheng listened, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
It's nothing more than that the young master of the big family fell in love with the daughter of a small family, and after they both fell in love, the Dongfang family tried their best to oppose it, and in desperation, he had to follow the family mission and planned to break up with the woman. The woman was also a fierce woman, and when she learned the reason, she left the country. Dongfang Luming waited until he lost her to find out that he had fallen in love with her, and he publicly refused to marry the family, and resolutely cut off the family's inheritance and devoted himself to the jade industry that the woman chose back then. A few years later, he met the woman in the United States, discovered that she was also unmarried, and created the world-famous Dantina jewelry. In recent years, Dongfang Luming often went to the United States in the air, just to see her and explain to her the reason for the year, but the stubborn strange woman was indifferent to him and did not forgive him. The two of them just consumed it.
However, what can you do if you know it, and reward him with Huo Jun's "You deserve it?" "It seems to be to no avail. can only continue to run to the United States by Dongfang Luming, pestering the other party to explain, hoping that the two will reunite. And the Dongfang family also deserves it, not to mention losing a legitimate heir in his prime, and even the opportunity to meet during the New Year is very rare. One does not forgive the other, and it becomes an entangled serial set.
"Dongfang used to be an introverted person, but he didn't expect that after a few years, his temperament is very different now." After the two left Dongfang's house together, Huo Jun saw that Xi Yizheng still had a stunned expression, knowing that she was still thinking about the past that Dongfang Luming told just now.
"The teacher's temperament is actually quite good now. At least it's happier to live this way. "Introverted people are always not easy to express their true feelings. It's just that today's Dongfang Luming is really open-minded and cheerful? Not necessarily, perhaps the current East is more complicated and difficult to say emotionally.
"You're not someone to trust easily?" Huo Jun seemed to ask.
Xi Yizheng reciprocated with a light smile, "How can you see it?" Maybe it was because she trusted others too much in her previous life, and thenβshe shook her head and skimmed away the sourness in her heart.
"Feeling." Huo Jun clenched and pulled her hand, "In the future, try to trust me more." β
She nodded, she could try, trust him. Looking at the clasped hands, my heart slowly opened up a little bright.
