Chapter 11, The Dinner Party
"I'm sorry, I'm going to the bathroom." It was the first excuse she learned to escape after coming here.
"Really? Then I just want to go, so let's go together. "People want to be together, doesn't she say no!
Ji Xiangxiang watched them go upstairs one after the other, so she whispered to the people around her, and then went upstairs as well.
Xuan Ruoxi was not very familiar with the Huo family's villa, and she didn't go to the bathroom last time, so in order to avoid embarrassment, she had to follow Lin Xi upstairs. Seeing her familiar appearance, Xuan Ruoxi was not too surprised.
Lin Xi, who was walking in front, looked back at her proudly, "Ah, I forgot, there was also a bathroom on the first floor, is Miss Xuan coming for the first time?" Don't you know? She asked on purpose. Because Xuan Ruoxi showed that she was unfamiliar with the Huo family, she guessed that she had never been here. That way, her odds are a little better.
Xuan Ruoxi didn't say anything, just shook his head.
"......" Lin Xi, who was walking in front, turned around elegantly and continued to walk forward, and stopped in front of a door with the words "lounge" on it.
"This is the lounge, a place for guests to rest, with a separate bathroom. Let's go inside. After speaking, she pushed the door in, Xuan Ruoxi hesitated, she didn't really want to go to the toilet, but she didn't seem to have a choice in front of her, she glanced at the direction of the stairs behind her, and walked in with small strides.
Just after they entered, another person appeared in the corridor, it was Ji Xiangxiang.
Outside, she frowned and hesitated to go inβbut she only hesitated for a few seconds before pushing the door in.
The lounge is quite large with several sets of sofas and coffee tables. Floor-to-ceiling windows have blankets, and thin curtains let out the daylight outside.
There is a wine cabinet on the left-hand side where you can drink and chat. There is a bookshelf next to the wine cabinet full of books. Xuan Ruoxi did not go directly to the bathroom after entering, but looked around the house. The low-heeled shoes don't make any sound when stepping on the blanket, and there are a lot of sofa combinations, so it must be very comfortable to lie on. There was a small door on the right side, and Lin Xi stood at the door and glanced at her, the corners of her mouth raised to reveal a hint of mockery.
"It seems that Miss Xuan is not in a hurry, then I will go first." After saying that, he pushed open the door and walked in.
Xuan Ruoxi saw the word WC written on the door.
The corners of his eyebrows were hooked, he smiled indifferently, and he was extremely surprised everywhere he looked.
The Huo family is indeed very rich, and every lounge is so luxurious.
At this time, the door opened, and Ji Xiangxiang walked in, a face with exquisite makeup full of hostility.
"Hmph, who am I, it turned out to be you?"
"Hello, Miss Ji."
"Hmph, good memory!" Xuan Ruo blinked helplessly, how long has it been, and no one will forget it.
"You're from an orphanage, aren't you?" Ji Xiangxiang walked to the sofa on the side and sat down, looking at Xuan Ruoxi arrogantly.
"Yes, Licheng Welfare Institute, Xuan Ruoxi." This is her identity, there is nothing to hide, and there is no need to hide it.
"Heh, then you really have the ability, you can actually seduce Huo Shao, look at your young age, but you are dressed old-fashioned, pretending to be mature, and you have done your homework quite well." Xuan Ruoxi didn't understand what she meant.
She is no longer the Xuan Ruo regret she used to be.
In the face of such a young girl's provocation, she would not be timid or caring.
Smiled gently, Xuan Ruoxi only looked at her with pity, the little girl would not know that it would be painful to like a man who didn't like her.
"Miss Ji, how old is this year?"
Ji Xiangxiang didn't expect that Xuan Ruoxi didn't have any counterattack in the face of other people's ridicule!
Sure enough, it's a scheming vixen.
The resentment in Ji Xiangxiang's eyes made Xuan Ruoxi feel helpless.
"Huo Shao and I are just friends, so there's no need to do any homework. It's Miss Ji--"
Xuan Ruoxi looked at her delicate cheeks, but she was wearing inappropriate makeup, and a faint smile appeared on her face.
"What's wrong with me?" Ji Xiangxiang felt very annoyed that she was seen through her thoughts.
"It's really not appropriate for your age. You are very beautiful and have a pure temperament, there is really no need to dress up and become old, youth is your best weapon. "She didn't laugh at her, she just told the truth.
I don't think there's any need to stay any longer, and the one in the bathroom has been staying for a long time.
Xuan Ruoxi was about to turn around and leave, but Ji Xiangxiang felt that she had been ridiculed and taught a lesson, and she was about to stand up in anger, but because her skirt was too long, she was accidentally stepped on by her shoes, and her center of gravity was unstable after taking a few steps, and she was about to fall to the ground.
Xuan Ruoxi heard the exclamation, instinctively turned around, and saw Ji Xiangxiang turning in her direction.
She subconsciously reached out to stop her, but because the distance was a little off. She only grabbed her collar --- tear it!
The collar of Ji Xiangxiang's dress was torn, and Xuan Ruoxi looked at the sudden situation in front of her in amazement, and didn't know how to react for a while.
This scene happened to be seen by Lin Xi who came out of the bathroom, so she screamed.
"Ah, Miss Xuan, you are so vicious, you actually beat Miss Ji! And tear her clothes! β
"No, I saw that Miss Ji was about to fall--" She wanted to explain, but Ji Xiangxiang burst into tears.
"Ah, my dress, my beloved dress, it was you, you did it on purpose. You're a bad woman. β
What? Xuan Ruoxi suddenly realized that she had made a mistake.
That is to be soft-hearted to the enemy. In addition to being annoyed, he was panicked, after all, this is not a welfare home, people's hearts are deceitful, and there is no one else at the scene. If they were united, she would be speechless. Many memories of her past life poured into her heart like a tidal wave. Retracting her hand, the look on her face became heavy, until she stumbled upon the camera diagonally above her--
"What happened?" At this time, someone came in at the door, and the voice was a man. Xuan Ruoxi almost didn't think about it, and used her body to block the spring leakage of Ji Xiangxiang.
But Ji Xiangxiang didn't appreciate it at all, because it was Huo Jiyun who came in.
She pushed Xuan Ruo away, and Pear Blossom threw herself in front of Huo Jiyun with tears, crying: "Brother Ji Yun, it was she who beat me and tore my dress. β
Huo Jiyun frowned and looked at Ji Xiangxiang, who was crying and had spent all her makeup, as well as her half-torn neckline. With his snow-white skin exposed, he pursed his lips and took off his coat to cover her embarrassment from the front.
He said to the door, "Sensen, don't let anyone in." β
At this time, there were other people at the door who wanted to come in, but they were stopped by the tall assistant Sen Sen.
Huo Jiyun looked at Xuan Ruoxi, who was at a loss, and his eyes were a little deeper.
"Ji Yun, Miss Ji's skirt was indeed torn by Miss Xuan just now." Lin Xi, who was making a good show on the side, saw Huo Jiyun come in, and he had already thought of his rhetoric. Xuan Ruoxi glanced at her, this woman is scheming, if she hadn't yelled just now, Ji Xiangxiang wouldn't have bitten her so bite.
"What do you see?" Huo Jiyun asked a question, but the person walked to the sofa and sat down.
His principle of life is to make a decision on the spot, and to make it clear in person if there is anything.
