Chapter 18 Pampered
When I was almost facing the face, I met Ruan Mingshu again. Huo Yuanzhe looked at her without avoiding her eyes and was completely unruly. The corners of his lips were casually raised and said to Ruan Mingshu with a teasing meaning: "Wear this dress on you, it will definitely be more beautiful at my brother's birthday party, and it will be quite innocent."
Huo Yuanzhe thought that his words reflected his emotional intelligence very well, but Ruan Mingshu's face changed, her apricot eyes dimmed, and she murmured softly: "What birthday party is it?"
She didn't know that this was happening.
Although her voice was very light, Huo Yuanzhe's hearing level 10 player had already caught what she was saying. Huo Yuanzhe, who knew that he was saying the wrong thing, raised his eyebrows and thought that nothing had happened before and said calmly, "It's nothing, it's just that my mother and the others are worried about it. My uncle didn't care at all."
The girl in front of her has a skin that is better than snow. The dazzling red satin-like dress and lips are shining with each other, and the ink-colored hair is casually spread on the lotus-colored shoulders.
The red really highlights her, Huo Yuanzhe pursed his lips.
Under his affectionate eyes, Ruan Mingshu responded softly and knew about this, but the feeling of gap in her heart could not be eliminated.
Huo Yuanzhe wanted to save him guiltily, "I may say that my uncle will pick you up in person tomorrow. If he forgot, I will pick you up the same thing." Just as he finished saying this, Ruan Mingshu shook his head and said no to him.
"It's different, I believe he will come to pick me up." Ruan Mingshu had her own stubbornness. She reached out to grab the down jacket beside her, and then walked towards the cash register area as if she was running away.
Looking at Ruan Mingshu's back, Huo Yuanzhe suddenly felt a little speechless. He wanted to chase him and send him home in this cold winter, but her blunt refusal was like a hanging sharp blade tilting over her head.
Such a girl is born with the pride of refusing to surrender and has a bright and tenacious personality that is not dragged on. She should be the pearl held in her palm.
After packing Xinyue's dress home, it was already six o'clock in the evening. Huo Yuan also got off work at this time. The two of them sat on the round table to have a meal. Ruan Mingshu turned her eyes to Huo Yuan's slender and powerful fingertips and she was out of her mind.
Seeing that she was even casually eating, Huo Yuan put down his chopsticks and asked her leisurely: "Look at me, will you give me a meal?"
Hearing this, Ruan Mingshu raised her eyes like a sudden realization, blinked her eyes with admiration, shook her head and nodded, "I met a friend today, and then talked to me a lot."
"What did you talk about? If it's convenient to say to me." Huo Yuan has never liked to force others. In Ruan Mingshu's world, he wanted to be a listener.
With light lips, Ruan Mingshu looked at Huo Yuan with a bit of obsession. She sneered: "It's nothing, it's just about feelings. You don't like this kind of love between children."
Seeing Huo Yuan silent, Ruan Mingshu started drinking soup on his own, showing that he didn't care much, but soon Huo Yuan raised his lips and raised his eyebrows and said, "I am also an ordinary person, how could I not care about the love between children?"
As long as it is Ruan Mingshu's business, he has time to listen to it and solve it.
"I have a classmate in London. She fell in love with a senior who is very cold and very strong in her professional field, but he doesn't seem to like my classmate, but just treats her as a junior." Ruan Mingshu was a little afraid to look at Huo Yuan when she said this, for fear that some feelings she wanted to hide would be captured by him.
If she says all her feelings, then will she not even be able to do anything to him?
Some people say that the cheap feelings of love will eventually turn into family affection and always accompany you. Ruan Mingshu's eyes looked at Huo Yuan with lustrous eyes and suddenly felt a chill in her heart. Perhaps it would be better to be with Huo Yuan as her sister.
At this moment, Ruan Mingshu didn't even know how humble this idea was.
Huo Yuan only thought about the problem Ruan Mingshu said, without digging in depth at all, nor did he observe the look that Ruan Mingshu dared not look directly at him.
He seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and then snorted: "A arrogant and rude but talented person is sought after by many girls, but he cannot force himself to do so in terms of feelings. If he likes it, then he will regret it if he loses it."
Ruan Mingshu didn't listen to the words "too regret" at all, but put the four words "can't force" in her heart. Perhaps the relationship is really impossible.
As soon as the topic changed, Ruan Mingshu raised her bright eyes lightly. She asked again without admitting her defeat: "Tomorrow is Sunday, are you going to stay in the company or at home?" Or do you have any other activities?
Ruan Mingshu bit her lips and looked away. She really couldn't break the window paper.
Could it be that she still took the initiative to expose this matter and let Huo Yuan bring her to everyone? This is too incredible and she can't do it.
"Yeah." Huo Yuan responded tiredly and casually. He rubbed his high nose and said, "I have to go to the company tomorrow to deal with some matters, as for the evening..."
"I guess I'll be back very late, so don't wait for me to have dinner." Huo Yuan said carelessly. He felt a headache when he thought of tomorrow's birthday dinner. He should leave this kind of thing to Huo Yuanzhe to do, rather than letting him who is not good at it.
He felt like a mirror in his heart, so he was deliberately unwilling to tell Ruan Mingshu that if even the little girl followed him, he would be in a real dilemma.
After answering Ruan Mingshu's question, Ruan Mingshu responded casually, and then she put down her chopsticks.
"I'm finished eating now?" Staring at Ruan Mingshu's bowl of white rice that had not moved a few chopsticks, Huo Yuan's forehead suddenly thrust. The mild crux of the last time he hugged her was probably this. How could he gain weight if he didn't eat well?
Ruan Mingshu didn't look back, and she bulged her cheeks and seemed to be bullied. Seeing Aunt Ji, who was walking towards her, was full of doubts.
Looking at the girl's back, then looking at Huo Yuan, Aunt Ji asked helplessly, "Is this girl bullied?"
Huo Yuan, who was stunned, pursed his lips slightly. He shouldn't have bullied the little girl.
Ruan Mingshu, who had never closed her eyes all night, heard the door of her bedroom quietly opened by Huo Yuan in the early morning. Almost the moment he heard the door open, Ruan Mingshu quickly closed her eyes and even held her breath. The man didn't say anything, but thoughtfully closed her quilt that was not covered with her chest.
The simple action, like a butterfly flapping its wings, caused a series of reactions to trigger Ruan Mingshu's heart to tighten. His concern for her was just to treat her as a child, right?
The moment the bedroom door was closed, Ruan Mingshu opened her eyes and she no longer had the intention to fall asleep.
All night, she wondered why Huo Yuan didn't even tell her about his birthday party. This feeling of being ignored by the most cherished person really made Ruan Mingshu feel uncomfortable.
Perhaps, in Huo Yuan's heart, she may really not matter at all.
Huo Yuan, who did have a company matter, received a call from Huo Yuanzhe's mother after finishing the difficult matter. Facing his sister-in-law, Huo Yuan's arrogance and slutiness were all restrained. He responded: "Don't worry, I will definitely arrive for another half an hour, and I will not let you open the skylight at this banquet."
"It will take half an hour?" The sister-in-law on the other end stared at her phone incredibly, and her eyes widened. "You can only be limited to ten minutes to come over quickly, otherwise I can't hold you back if your dad gets angry."
After saying that, Huo Yuanzhe's mother hung up the phone.
Huo Yuan, who was still in a traffic jam on the downhill section of the expressway, frowned. He was not even anxious, the person who was unwilling to hold a birthday party. What were they anxious? And he said he would go.
Is his integrity so worthless?
Arriving at the old house with a garden structure in the Huo family, the antique Chinese design and modern banquet podium were blended together. Huo Yuan, who had just arrived, was soon led to the meeting with the ladies of various famous families by the Huo family.
Both girls who are so handsome and smart are wearing the dress that Huo Father likes, which is the restrained and fashionable cheongsam.
Since he came, he would be at peace. Huo Yuan greeted him respectfully or curled his lips and smiled with him. But when he saw these two girls wearing cheongsams, he unknowingly thought of Ruan Mingshu. That day, she was wearing cheongsams, like a cold plum swaying in the severe winter wind and snow.
"You dance with Miss Zhe, and I will go to the door with your sister-in-law to welcome the guests." After that, the sister-in-law of the Huo family walked out, afraid that it would disturb the tacit understanding between the young people.
After hearing them say that, one of the two girls wearing cheongsams whispered to the other girl, then covered her lips and chuckled and flew away like a butterfly.
The one who stayed should be Miss Zhu. Huo Yuan looked at the girl in front of him who was probably similar to Ruan Mingshu.
It seemed as if he was shy of seeing her, she whispered to her: "My name is Zhe Dai, Dai Dai from Dai, you can call me A Dai."
“…”
Huo Yuan, who really didn't know how to speak, pursed his lips lightly and looked straight at him with cold eyes. The girl in front of him was obviously afraid of him, but pretended not to be afraid of him at all.
"Miss Zhe." Huo Yuan called her softly, and then he was not straightforward. "I don't know what my sister-in-law said to you, but I can tell you clearly that I don't have the idea of falling in love for the moment, so..."
He had not even handled his current relationship well, so what qualifications he had to consider the next relationship? Huo Yuan told her directly.
After hearing what she said, Zhe Dai was stunned for a moment, but the man in front of him was definitely beaten by the 80% of the men she knew. Even if Huo Yuan said frankly, she still didn't want to miss it.
She raised her eyebrows helplessly, and then angrily said with the meaning of her little daughter's thin-skinnedness: "Then won't you dance with me today?"
