Chapter 43, I Like You
"Xiangxiang, I heard the housekeeper say, you went to my house a few days ago?" When Ji Xiangxiang felt that she couldn't help it, Huo Jiyun finally spoke. His heart rejoiced, and his face smiled brightly.
"Yes, Grandpa Huo also let me pick a lot of oranges, and when I took them home, my father said that he would make orange honey himself."
Ji Xiangxiang may have been too excited to notice that Huo Jiyun's expression was a little unhappy.
"Really? Your dad didn't say anything else? ”
"No! Oh, yes, he also said that he wanted me to accompany Grandpa Huo more. said that you are busy, and Grandpa Huo is alone at home, which is quite lonely. Ji Xiangxiang said obediently, her eyes were full of love. Huo Jiyun raised his eyebrows, his expression was serious, the waiter on the side felt that the handsome guy was not very happy, and the eyes of the girl were cold, but the little girl was stunned and hot.
"Please go to the lobby and find my assistant - pay the bill." Huo Jiyun's words were said to the waiter.
"Yes sir." The waiter immediately went out.
"Brother Huo, thank you for inviting me to dinner today, I'm really good-" Before Happy could say anything, Ji Xiangxiang was interrupted by a gesture from Huo Jiyun.
"Xiangxiang, how old are you today?" Ji Xiangxiang didn't understand why Huo Jiyun asked her age, but she still answered shyly.
"Brother Huo, I'm twenty-three years old this year." After saying that, I was still a little embarrassed.
"We are relatives, your father is my uncle, you are equal to my sister, you come to my house as a guest, I welcome you. But, as I said, don't be too casual. Do you remember what happened to the last dinner? Ji Xiangxiang seemed to feel Huo Jiyun's unhappiness at this time.
Biting his lip, he began to feel apprehensive in his heart, and then remembered the incident of the live broadcast in the orchard that day.
"Brother Huo—I was just having fun that day." Huo Jiyun looked at her silently, as if to say: It seems that you are not stupid.
"There should be a degree of fun. You are located in my house, provoking unprovoked people to wait and see. Then it shouldn't be. ”
"Brother Huo, what do you mean? I don't understand. Ji Xiangxiang's eyes widened, her face full of innocence.
Huo Jiyun took out his mobile phone and quickly sent a few words. Soon, Sen Sen opened the door and entered.
"Huo Shao." Huo Jiyun nodded to him, and Sen Sen took out his tablet and put it in front of Ji Xiangxiang.
"Miss Ji, these are the sequelae left after your live broadcast, you can take a look."
"Take your time, I'll go to the bathroom." Huo Jiyun stood up, exchanged glances with Sen Sen and walked out of the box door.
"I'm sorry Sister Zhang, I'll go to the bathroom."
"If it's a pity, are you okay, do you want me to accompany you?"
"No, I'm fine." After three rounds of drinking, Xuan Zhen inevitably drank half a glass of red wine. Her cheeks were slightly red, and her head began to be dizzy, and she didn't want to lose her temper, so she excused herself to come out to breathe. Just as she walked outside the door and rested against the pillar, a tall figure approached her.
As soon as Huo Jiyun came out of the bathroom, he unexpectedly found Xuan Ji leaning against the pillar. Surprised, people had already come to her.
"Why are you here?" Xuan Zhen, who was still taking a deep breath, was also surprised to see the person who came clearly.
"Huo Shao!"
"You've been drinking?" Huo Jiyun squinted slightly, seeing that her face was red, her eyes were confused, she was a little unhappy in her heart, and her resolute lips pursed. Grabbed her by the arm and helped her to lean towards himself. Xuan Jixi's eyes widened with fright by his actions, and he looked up at his deep eyes, and his heart suddenly panicked.
"Who are you eating with?" His question came overhead, his voice low and containing some heart-pounding charm.
"It's with some community leaders."
"Oh, leader!" Huo Jiyun raised his thick eyebrows and reached out to support her shoulder.
"What leader? Take me to meet me. "Someone who dares to let his woman drink! But he wants to see and learn. Huo Jiyun calmly hugged Xuan Ji and came to the box where she was eating.
When they showed up together, everyone in the box stopped talking and laughing.
The first to react was Sister Gu.
"Who is this?" Without waiting for Xuan Ji to speak, Huo Jiyun reported to his home.
"Huo Jiyun - Ruo's boyfriend." As soon as these words came out, Xuan Zhenxi's face turned even redder. Eldest Sister Gu opened her mouth wide and looked at Huo Jiyun in a daze.
Also present today is the blind date she specially found for Xuan Ruoxi. knew that Xuan Ruo was thin-faced, so he didn't tell her directly at first. It turns out that she has a boyfriend, and she is still such an outstanding man.
"Huo Jiyun! Is it Huo Shao of the Huo Group? Among the young people present recognized Huo Jiyun, and they all exchanged their heads in surprise.
"Yes, I'm Huo Jiyun of the Huo Group, because my girlfriend is too strong to drink. So- I took her home first. Tonight's me, leaders, please slow down. After saying it seriously, he didn't wait for others to come back to his senses, so he left directly with Xuan Zhen. When the people left, the people in the box reacted, and the atmosphere exploded in an instant.
"Xiao Zhang, what's going on?"
"I didn't expect to see Huo Shao here, I had seen it on the news before. I'm too handsome, right? ”
"It turns out that the rumors are true." In the box on the other end, after Ji Xiangxiang watched the video, tears fell down.
"Miss Ji, Huo Shao said. This time it's your unintentional fault. If there is a next time, then directly block your account. Sen Sen looked at Ji Xiangxiang, who kept shedding tears, and had no sympathy in his heart, because it was not worth it.
Some people just like to be hypocritical, and try to be delusional if they are not their own. Following Huo Jiyun's side, I haven't seen any woman, like Ji Xiangxiang, who is a pediatrician.
The mobile phone message rang, Sen Sen took it out and saw that it was Huo Shao.
[I went back beforehand, you called a car to take Miss Ji home. Uh, Huo Shao left first? Although it is a bit inexplicable, Sen Sen is still very experienced in ordering a taxi directly.
"Miss Ji, Huo Shao said that he has something to do temporarily, let me send you back." Ji Xiangxiang was still hesitant to explain. When he heard that Huo Shao had left, he was actually relieved in his heart, nodded with his mouth held back, and followed Sen Sen out of the hotel.
Xuan Zhen sat in the co-pilot, because he was startled, the cold wind blew, and most of the alcohol just now had gone. She cautiously looked at Huo Jiyun who was driving, and he looked so serious without saying a word.
"Well, then, if you leave like this, will it affect your meal?" Although he didn't know who he was eating with at the hotel, Xuan felt the need to care.
"No, it won't." Two simple words, clean and crisp, with a cold tone.
Xuan Ji felt a little dry and licked his lips subconsciously.
A bottle of water was handed to her, and she turned her head in disbelief to look at the man in front of her.
"If you drink wine, your mouth will be dry, just drink some water." Still don't look at her. Xuan Ji took the water and thanked him in a low voice: "Oh, thank you." I turned on the water and drank a few sips, the cool and slightly sweet taste directly reduced the dryness of my mouth, and the night wind gently blew into the car, and Xuan Zhenxi's wine was completely sober.
"Just now—thank you."
"Thank me for what?" yes, thank you, break the siege, or is he her boyfriend! For a while, Xuan Zhen regretted that he had nothing to say.
"Why did you eat with them?" Also drinking.
"To thank them for their help." Xuan Zhen cherishes the honest truth.
"Thanks!" Huo Jiyun snorted coldly, she simply thought it was an ordinary dinner, just now he just glanced at it and knew that this meal was not simple. A group of big men, except for a married woman, there is only one single woman. The other half are young men, and a discerning person can see what it means.
"Don't attend a dinner like this next time."
"Oh, I see." Xuan Zhen regretted that he didn't know why he obediently agreed. Huo Jiyun suddenly smiled softly, and with a serious expression on his face, he smiled naturally and happily.
Xuan Ji glanced at him inexplicably, and her good-looking side face made her heart beat faster.
"It's a pity." The four words that seemed to be spoiled and ridiculed made Xuan Zhenxi's face flush instantly. , turned his head to hide his hastiness.
The street lights at the entrance of the Cherish Blessing Courtyard had been lit, and Xuan Ji Xi got out of the car, and she accidentally stumbled a little in a hurry.
"Are you alright?" Huo Jiyun also got out of the car, and Xuan Ji felt that he had no face to look at him, so he lowered his head and shook it, intending to flee the scene.
"Are you afraid of me?" Huo Jiyun didn't let her go, moving her feet to block her way, her slender figure was magnificent, and their shadows looked intimate under the light of the street lamp.
"Nope." Still keeping his head down, Xuan Zhen regretted that he didn't dare to look at him at the moment.
"Lying." In the next second, Xuan Zhen was gently pressed against the car window, and his shoulders couldn't move. His chin was also lifted by Huo Jiyun, and he was forcing her to face each other, her eyes met, and there were different sparks in her eyes.
Huo Jiyun is exploring, and Xuan Zhen is panicking.
"I've always wondered why you are so young, but you have maturity in your eyes that is beyond your age. Is it the hardships of life that cause you to be more mentally stable than the average person, or is it because of something else? Many times, I want to ask you, but I don't think our relationship is at that level yet, but tonight, I want to go one step further.
It's a pity, no matter what has happened to you, I want to live in your heart and become a harbor you can rely on, I'm not a promiscuous person, you're the only girl I really want to date so far.
I'm serious. People who don't care about identity, only care about you, I like you. Be my girlfriend and let me protect you, okay? Facing his sincere eyes, Xuan Ji felt that his heart could no longer bear it. The past is vivid, and her tears are falling.
"What a pity!" Huo Jiyun stunned her tears, and let go of the hands that suppressed her shoulders, he was Huo Jiyun, the heir of the Huo Group.
He has his pride, and he has his principles. If she really didn't want to, he naturally wouldn't force it.
"I'm sorry, Huo Shao, I thank you for liking, but I-really can't accept you." Huo Jiyun looked at her silently, neither comforting nor wiping her tears. Instead, he looked at her deeply until she wiped her eyes dry.
"I see, you go in, good night." Xuan Jixi almost ran into the gate of the welfare home. She didn't look back, and she didn't dare to look. Huo Jiyun's identity is noble, he has his pride, and she understands it. Just like the face of a king, the dignity of a nobleman, she can't afford to offend, and she can't afford it.
