Qiu's Architecture has long been famous in the coastal construction industry. Although Qiu Bailu doesn't like running, as the only heir of Qiu's Architecture, she also has a certain reputation in the circle.
Many people who knew her thought she was attending as a judge when they saw her appearance. No one expected that she was also one of the contestants.
But there are no absolutes in everything.
Huo Dongheng was originally chatting with someone when he saw Qiu Bailu in front of the champagne stand from a distance. He immediately apologized and walked towards her.
In recent days, the weather has been getting warmer. Qiu Bailu wore a light blue backless dress. Her long black hair partially covered her beautiful back. Huo Dongheng's eyes passed over her smooth and fair skin.
, his throat was a little dry and itchy.
Qiu Bailu was in a daze looking at the glass cups arranged in a tower shape. She didn't notice until Huo Dongheng came to her side. Huo Dongheng put his palm on her bare skin like a prank. The temperature in his palm was very high, and Qiu Bailu looked like
She jumped as if she had been burned. After seeing clearly that the person coming was Huo Dongheng, she frowned without hesitation.
"It's you? What are you going to do?" Qiu Bailu's disgust was palpable, "Take your hand away!"
Huo Dongheng disagreed, and his hand did not leave Qiu Bailu's back, but started to rub it, "Xiao Lu, when did your temper become so bad? How did you come to a place like this? The organization does not have your name."
His tone was ambiguous, and a thin layer of calluses formed on the palms of his hands, moving uncertainly, like a caress. Qiu Bailu's whole body became covered with light suds, and she impatiently moved to the side to avoid Huo Dongheng's harassment. "The competition is over again.
If you didn’t drive it, what does it have to do with you whether I come or not?”
"You can't say that. Although Qiu's Construction is not the organizer this time, it has also paid a large sum of money for sponsorship. As the executive officer of Qiu's, I always have to know the information about the contestants. Xiaolu, don't you think so?
?”
"Qiu's family?" Qiu Bailu sneered, "You have the nerve to say this name."
"Why can't I tell you? It's in my hands now, but it's just missing a piece of paper. The employees only recognize me as their boss. Even if you sue, you may not be able to sue. Not only it, but you too
The same, you are still my wife, if I do something to you, it is reasonable."
His body was pressed tightly against Qiu Bailu, and his breath was hot against Qiu Bailu's ears. Through several thin layers of fabric, Qiu Bailu could clearly feel his body temperature and the changes in his body. His body temperature was hot.
Like fire, her muscles were tense and ready to go. She was ashamed and wanted to run away, but Huo Dongheng hugged her tightly from behind, "Xiaolu, you have participated in the competition, right? I saw it in the list of contestants.
If you want to win, I can help you."
"I don't need it!" Qiu Bailu's face changed drastically. She never wanted anyone to interfere in this matter! She could get the ranking because of her own ability, but she couldn't because she was not as good as others. She knew what Huo Dongheng was thinking in his mind.
What, she can never allow such a thing to happen!
"So stubborn? Is it because you think you can definitely win the championship? Or is it because I was the one who took action? Xiaolu, don't show off, you know I can make you win. Of course, I can also make you lose completely."
"Are you threatening me? What do you want?" Huo Dongheng is a person who can do what he says. Qiu Bailu heard the implication of his words. She only had one thought in her mind. She was really blind. How could she fall in love with him?
Such a person.
"No, I'm just showing you a clear path. What I want, Xiaolu, don't you know?" Huo Dongheng lowered his head and brushed his lips over her shoulder shamefully, "I want you...Xiaolu
, go home. I promised my father that I will take care of you and make sure you have enough food and clothing. I will give you whatever you want, as long as you stay with me."
He would not admit to her how much he missed her while she was gone. Missing was like an invisible hand, tightly strangling his throat, making him unable to breathe and unable to sleep at night. He
There had been some women, some beautiful or enchanting, but no matter who they were, they could not give him more joy than her, who was as raw as a green fruit. He missed her shy expression, her thin eyebrows that slightly furrowed when she cried out in pain,
And her silky moans when she is passionate...
He whispered in her ear with a gentle expression. To outsiders, they looked like a pair of intimate partners, whispering.
But Qiu Bailu was extremely bored, "Huo Dongheng, I don't know what's wrong with you. I just want to tell you that I don't want to do anything you think about. Qiu's Construction is just a sponsor for this competition.
You are not the final referee, you have no right to dictate the outcome of the game!"
"Xiao Lu, why are you still so naive? Haven't you heard that money can make all the difference?" She still likes to use lemon-flavored shampoo, and the sweet smell makes him reluctant to let her go.
His body was quietly heating up and was so swollen that he almost felt pain. "If you want ranking or fame, I can give it to you, as long as you behave."
"What if I don't?" Qiu Bailu's hand touched the champagne glass on the table behind her. She made up her mind. If Huo Dongheng dared to continue to pester like this, she would give him some color even if she really didn't participate in the competition.
.
Huo Dongheng knew nothing about her plan, but he still pressed against her and sighed, "I don't want to see such a result, because I make you sad."
Is there anyone more shameless than him in the world? Qiu Bailu laughed angrily. She grabbed the cup and threw the wine out with her backhand. Huo Dongheng felt something was wrong when he saw her smiling. When he saw her picking up the wine cup, he
He immediately dodged to the side.
A glass of champagne fell to the ground, leaving an amber trail.
A waiter carrying hot soup passed by. One of them didn't pay attention and stepped on the wine. He tilted his body and poured the whole pot of hot soup towards Qiu Bailu. Huo Dongheng pulled her hard and pushed her away.
In his arms, he moved quickly, but some of the soup was poured on one of his arms.
The back of Huo Dongheng's hand was immediately red from the hot soup. Without even frowning, he quickly looked Qiu Bailu up and down several times, "Are you burned?"
The waiter looked at Huo Dongheng's wet sleeves and the blisters gradually rising on the back of his hands. He was so shocked that he rushed forward to take Huo Dongheng to apply for a cold compress. Huo Dongheng pushed him away impatiently and asked Qiu Bailu again, "
Were you scared? Did you know you were in trouble? Did you get burned anywhere?"
Qiu Bailu looked at him with confusion, "Why do you want to help me?"
He is a person who has nothing to gain and can't afford to be early. It was clear that she was trying to offend him just now. If he hadn't escaped quickly, he would have had his face poured with wine and his face was disgraced. But not only was he not angry, he also came to help.
.
"You are my wife. If I don't help you, why should I push you back?"
You haven't always been like this before, Qiu Bailu complained, but before she could say the words, Huo Dongheng pulled her out two steps. Qiu Bailu struggled slightly, and Huo Dongheng said unhappily, "My hands are like this now, no.
If you deal with it, the consequences will be serious. Don’t you think you should bear some responsibility? Or do you want to stay here and let the organizing committee hold you accountable?!"
Some people have heard the news and are paying attention here. Burning a big sponsor is not a trivial matter. Coupled with her recent relationship with Huo Dongheng, I'm afraid there will be another story in the tabloids tomorrow. A rich couple turns against each other and the wife burns her husband's lace.
News, although Qiu Bailu didn't want to go with Huo Dongheng, she didn't want to appear in the entertainment headlines. She thought about it, gritted her teeth and left with Huo Dongheng.
Huo Dongheng's car stopped not far away, and the driver was Lao Wang from the Qiu family. When Lao Wang saw Qiu Bailu, his expression was stunned, and then he opened the car door diligently, "Miss, I haven't seen you for a long time.
How are you doing lately?"
"Uncle Wang, thank you for your hard work."
There were tears in Uncle Wang's eyes, which made Qiu Bailu feel unbearable. These old servants had been following Qiu Chengjia for decades. Qiu Bailu wanted to think that Huo Dongheng would replace them all after he left the Qiu family, but she didn't expect that he would
Still have them.
She looked at Huo Dongheng with a more profound look, and Huo Dongheng let her look at him.
The car was quiet for a moment, and Qiu Bailu looked out the window. The scenery outside flew by. It was almost March, and the branches had sprouted new green. The sea in the distance was no longer gray, and the blue waves were covered with white waves.
The flowers look full of life.
Qiu Bailu didn't understand what Huo Dongheng was thinking. He hated her to the core and was always thinking about how to make her unhappy. If he didn't pull her back just now, she would be the one who got hurt... But he
Why did he take action again? What else did he want from her? What else did she deserve for him to care about?
He always said he only wanted her, but he didn't know how ridiculous his words sounded to her.
She would have to be crazy to believe that he still had the slightest reluctance to let her go, but she wouldn't be crazy. She was sober that she couldn't even deceive herself.
"Don't think about it, Xiaolu, I'm just acting out of instinct." Seeing Qiu Bailu frowning, Huo Dongheng seemed to see the doubt in her heart. He covered his hand on her palm, and Qiu Bailu subconsciously wanted to pull it out.
But after seeing the hideous wounds on his hands, he didn't move in the end.
The car drove halfway up the mountain and slowly drove into the Qiu family's villa. Aunt Zhou was watering the flowers in the yard. When she saw the car driving in, she stopped what she was doing.
As soon as she saw Qiu Bailu getting out of the car, she immediately ran towards her and said, "Xiao Lu!"
Aunt Zhou was half a head shorter than Qiu Bailu. She could only hug Qiu Bailu's waist and cry so hard that she couldn't help herself. "Silly girl, why have you been away for so long without even saying a word to Auntie? Auntie is so worried about you.
.How did you become so thin? Are you having a hard time?"
Qiu Bailu's eyes were sour, and she suddenly felt that she was as cruel as Huo Dongheng. She was hurt a little, so she left all the people who loved her and cared about her and disappeared without a trace, leaving them to be afraid for her.
