"What? Feeling sad? Because of that man? Do you like him?"
"No..." She pursed her lips, "Even if it wasn't him, my father would marry me to someone else."
After a pause, she seemed to remember something: "Let me go quickly. I have to go back quickly. If my father finds out that I have been out for so long, he will be angry."
She thought she might have to say soft words before the man would let her go.
Unexpectedly, the man actually let her go in a friendly manner.
She immediately stayed away from him.
But after running away for two steps, he turned back timidly.
"Is your injury feeling better?" After saying that, he waved his hand hurriedly, "I don't mean anything else. After all, you helped me in what happened last time."
"Helped you?" Huo Jingmo smiled coldly and pulled her to his side and pressed her against the wall, "What? Do you want to thank the bad guy? Miss Gu seems to have forgotten that I was going to kill you.
Bar."
Little Rose seemed to think of it belatedly, but a moment later she was extremely naive: "But you didn't kill me in the end, so you shouldn't be a bad person."
Huo Jingmo laughed as if he had heard some big joke.
Little Rose was a little at a loss and didn't know what she said wrong.
But he suddenly stepped away, his eyes even colder than before.
"It's time for you to go back."
After saying that, he turned around and left.

Two days later, Huashangtan suddenly changed hands.
Things happened suddenly, and the original commander-in-chief Fang Zhenxing suddenly fell.
After learning about this incident, everyone in the Trade Association became worried.
Father Gu looked solemn when he came home.
Aunt Fang originally planned to tell some jokes to calm things down, but she didn't know which words made him uncomfortable, so she was dragged into the room and beaten for a long time.
Hearing the miserable cries coming from upstairs, the other people in the living room were frightened and trembling.
"I heard that the former commander-in-chief's army was swallowed up without any resistance. I don't know what happened."
"I heard that the military deployment map was stolen."
"No, this is actually happening?"
"It seems like some time ago..."
The two brothers from the Gu family were discussing in low voices.
She knew why, because Huo Jingmo stole the deployment map.
It's just that in the original plot, he was heavily rounded up because of his injuries. He barely escaped from the city and rested for more than half a month before recovering.
This time, with her help, Huo Jingmo successfully escaped capture.
Her two younger brothers were still saying, "I wonder what the new young commander's temperament is like?"
Just as he was talking, he saw Gu's father coming upstairs.
Not long after, Father Gu came down from upstairs.
Several people in the living room stood up.
Father Gu looked at his children critically, and finally his eyes fell on Gu Ruojiao, who was huddled in the corner and had perfectly inherited her mother's beauty.
Father Gu: "Ruoruo, go get ready and attend the welcome reception of the Chamber of Commerce with me tonight."
"Father!"
Hearing this, Gu Ruojiao's two younger brothers immediately shouted dissatisfied.
"Why take her there! What can she do?!"
"That's right, she shrinks into a quail when she sees a stranger. She can't help you at all, father."
Everyone knows that if you want to curry favor with the new young commander, now is the best opportunity.
They also want a chance to perform!
Naturally, Aunt Qian also wanted to earn a future for her child, so she helped: "Yes, Master, this girl Ruoruo is very stupid, and it will be even worse if she offends the new rich man."
Seeing this, Gu Ruojiao nodded slightly: "Father, I don't want to go. If my brother and the others want to..."
