If Jing Li could barely hold on in front of Gu Wan before, now in such an absolutely safe environment, after she lowered her guard, she really lost her composure.
So Huo Qiran said to listen to him, so she listened to him.
Huo Qiran called Mu Qian in advance and asked her to help prepare the guest room. Therefore, when Huo Qiran took Jing Li and Xi Xi home, he happened to see Mu Qian instructing Aunt Chen to spread the sheets in the guest room.
Jing Li was still a little embarrassed and said to Mu Qian, "Auntie, I'm really bothering you."
"What's the point of disturbing this?" Mu Qian smiled and teased Xi Xi in her arms, "It would be more lively if there are more people in the family, right son?"
Huo Qiran was helpless, "Mom, you can go and rest, I'll be fine here."
Mu Qian glanced at him, then smiled and said to Jing Li: "Just treat it as your own family. Our family is very casual. If you need anything, just tell Aunt Chen."
Jing Li nodded slightly.
Mu Qian then waved to Xi Xi again, "Good night, little princess."
Xi Xi lay on Jing Li's shoulder happily and shyly, and responded: "Good night, aunt."
Mu Qian raised her eyebrows slightly and didn't bother to care about this confusing title. It was better than calling her "grandma" after all.
After secretly giving her son a thumbs up, Mu Qian walked out of the guest room. When she returned to the bedroom, Huo Jinxi was sitting on the bed reading a book.
"Have you brought him back?" Huo Jinxi asked.
"We have brought him back." Mu Qian responded lazily and said, "But from what I see, your son is still far away from his body!"
On this side, Huo Qiran settled Jing Li and Xi Xi, told them to rest early, and then returned to his room.
This time was still early for him, and he was scheduled to go out tomorrow. He should have a lot of things to do, but he was sitting at his desk, facing the computer in front of him, and he couldn't concentrate for a while.
In his scattered thoughts, he easily caught the two soft knocks at the door of the room.
Huo Qiran came to his senses, walked to the door, opened it, lowered his head, and saw the chubby little man.
"Brother Qi Ran!" Xi Xi seemed to be wandering around, but accidentally passed by the door of his room, so she was very surprised when she saw him.
Huo Qiran saw that she had changed into her pajamas, and bent down to pick her up, "Why did you run out on your own? Aren't you still sleeping? Where is my aunt?"
"Auntie took a bath..." Xi Xi muttered, "I took a bath for a long time..."
After hearing this, Huo Qiran suddenly thought of the scene he saw in the elevator today, and his heart sank slightly.
She was really hurt, that's why she took Xi Xi out to live and took a bath for so long...
Huo Qiran didn't know how to react for a moment. He just said to Xi Xi, "Then I'll play with Xi Xi first and wait for my aunt to wash the dishes and take a bath?"
Xi Xi nodded happily.
Huo Qiran took her to the small living room on the second floor, picked out a few toys for her, and patiently played with her.
When Jing Li hurriedly ran out of the guest room with wet hair and saw Huo Qiran and Xi Xi in the small living room, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, walked to Xi Xi, and said to her: "Why did you run out?
Can’t sleep?”
Xi Xi was having fun and happily shared a "delicious dish" she had just finished with Jing Li.
Jing Li touched her head and exhaled again unconsciously.
Seeing her like this, Huo Qiran whispered: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to Xi Xi here. I promise you, you can't throw her away or knock her down."
When Jing Li heard this, she just looked at him quietly.
Huo Qiran added: "So you don't have to be so nervous, relax, have a good rest, and don't think about anything anymore."
Facing his gentle and peaceful eyes, Jing Li finally nodded lightly after a long time.
…
The next morning, Su Zhen arrived at Huo's house early in the morning. As soon as she walked in the door excitedly, she saw the person sitting at the dining table -
Huo Qiran... Jing Li and Xi Xi?
She was stunned at the door for a moment, not knowing how to react.
Until Jing Li saw her and took the initiative to say hello to her: "Su Su."
Su Zhen finally regained her composure and walked forward slowly, "Hey, Jing Li, Xi Xi, why are you here?"
"Something happened last night, so I brought them back to live temporarily." Huo Qiran said.
"Really?" Su Zhen asked hurriedly, "It's nothing important, right? Is there anything you need my help with?"
Jing Li slowly shook her head and simply said: "It's okay, it's all over."
"That's good." Su Zhen said, turning her head and glancing at Huo Qiran again, and lightly kicked him under the table.
Huo Qiran turned to look at her. Su Zhen was communicating with him with her eyes, but Jing Li saw them.
"By the way, I looked at an apartment online last night." Jing Li said, "It's pretty good. You can rent it long-term or short-term. I think Xi Xi and I can live there temporarily."
"What apartment?" Huo Qiran said, "Show me."
Jing Li found the information on her mobile phone and handed it to Huo Qiran, "It's quite new."
"That's not possible." Huo Qiran said, "How do you determine what decoration materials he used, and how do you determine that the indoor formaldehyde does not exceed the standard? What if Xi Xi gets sick after living in it?"
Jing Li hurriedly said: "I have read the posts, and everyone's feedback is pretty good——"
"You can live here with peace of mind." Huo Qiran said, "I won't drive you away, why are you anxious?"
"Yes, yes." Su Zhen helped, "The Huo family is now at ease. There are no messy rules at all. Uncle Huo and Aunt Qianqian are both very good people. You don't have to worry about what is there and what is not. You can live with peace of mind."
Bar!"
Jing Li heard this, but still hesitated. After a pause, she said, "Then I'll look for another place."
Huo Qiran was about to say something else, but Xi Xi suddenly accidentally spilled the milk in front of her. Jing Li hurriedly pushed away the chair and stood up. After hurriedly wiping it, she took Xi Xi upstairs to change clothes.
Huo Qiran and Su Zhen were the only two people left at the dining table. Huo Qiran turned to look at her. Su Zhen suddenly pushed away the chair and stood up, walking to the sofa in the center of the living room and sitting down.
Huo Qiran hesitated for a moment, then stood up and walked over.
"Don't you want to go skiing? If you can't go to Switzerland, how about going to Rambo Villa?" Huo Qiran finally said in a low voice after sitting down next to her.
"I knew it! I knew it would be up to you as soon as you opened your mouth!" Su Zhen said, "Huo Qiran, you said you would never let me go!"
"I know." Huo Qiran looked at her, "Isn't this a special situation..."
"Every time there is a special situation, every time other people's situations are special?" Su Zhen said, "What about me? I will always be the one who is sacrificed, right?"
"Let's play somewhere else." Huo Qiran said, "What you said is too harsh."
Su Zhen bit her lip, breathing rapidly, and finally looked at him again, "Do you like Jing Li?"
Huo Qiran was suddenly startled.
"Say!" Su Zhen said, "As long as you say you like her, then I won't say anything. I will bear any grievances, just to satisfy you!"
"Of course not." He spoke slowly, "I consider her a friend..."
"Really just friends?" Su Zhen asked again.
Huo Qiran nodded, "Don't be angry...how about Rambo Villa?"
Su Zhen was quiet for a moment, then suddenly raised her eyes again, "Then do you know how I can stop being angry?"
Huo Qiran thought, looking for the answer in her expression.
However, the next moment, the expression on her face suddenly magnified infinitely, and then, Huo Qiran only felt a slight bump on the corner of her lips...
