Huo Xu frowned and said with a cold face, "You seem to be very idle all the time?"
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder smoke between the two was getting stronger and stronger, the owner of the manor hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over, "You two don't want to argue. Let's not discuss business for the time being, okay? The wine in our manor is very delicious. Why don't you stay and have a drink first?"
lunch."
"snort."
Han Guangji stood up, raised his eyebrows provocatively at Huo Xu, and followed the boss out of the open-air teahouse.
Yu Ruoruan looked at the other person's walking figure, feeling very unsure.
I am really afraid of what will happen.
"don’t worry."
A deep voice fell from the top of her head, her shoulders sank, and Huo Xu's palm fell on her shoulders, "With me here, everything will go well."
Yu Ruoruan was speechless immediately.
In fact, purchasing the manor is not a big problem, but meeting Han Guangji, a difficult character, is a bit of a headache.
This man doesn't play by the rules and is a dangerous person.
But risks and profits coexist. If she wants to win the manor and earn future appreciation, she must face the pressure brought by competition.
Yu Ruanruan smiled gratefully at Huo Xu, "Thank you! I will work hard too!"
The boss of the manor arranged lunch in a large banquet hall. In order to accompany these important guests, the boss called all the shareholders of the manor over.
For a while, the banquet hall was filled with people drinking and drinking.
During the dinner, Yu Ruanruan went out to the bathroom. When she stood by the sink and washed her hands, there was a pungent smell of smoke behind her, accompanied by a dangerous smell approaching.
She turned around instinctively, stepped back, and her lower back hit the marble edge of the sink hard.
Facing Han Guangji's smiling eyes, Yu Ruoruan's heart rang with alarm bells.
"Ruanruan, long time no see." The man looked at her with a smile, just like when he first met half a year ago.
"Young Master Han, long time no see."
Yu Ruoruan smiled politely, neither humble nor overbearing, wiped the water stains on her hands, and walked past the boy without looking away.
"Is your relationship with Brother Xu actually so good? I remember when you were engaged, I was sitting in Brother Xu's car. It was raining so hard, and you were squatting alone in the rain curtain. Wow, how pitiful you are."
Han Guangji shook his head and clicked his tongue, "But Brother Xu didn't even go to the hotel where he was engaged. He just ordered the driver to drive away from you."
Yu Ruanruan's back stiffened suddenly, and those sealed memories came to him unexpectedly.
Maybe it was because the dress was too thin, or maybe the air-conditioning in the winery was too strong. Yu Ruanruan felt cold all over, as cold as that rainy night.
Although those old memories are old, they are like thumbtacks stuck in my heart, a hole that cannot be healed.
Seeing the girl's pale face, Han Guangji took some time to relax and leaned lazily against the wall, "Ruanruan, I felt so sorry for you at that time. How could Brother Xu be so cruel? But now I see that your relationship is so good, I'm very relieved. It turns out that as long as
If he is willing to look back, you will continue to love him. It is really a great love."
Han Guangji's words may sound like a blessing at first, but they are actually very strange.
How could Yu Ruanruan not notice that he was provoking?
Deliberately mentioning past hurts to hurt her and make her wary of Huo Xu.
In fact, her feelings for Huo Xu were indeed fragile.
She couldn't forget the hurt in the past or the experiences of her previous life. Every time she thought of it, her heart ached and she fell into a self-state of avoidance and hatred again.
"Ruanruan, when you and Brother Xu get married, remember to treat me to a wedding banquet. If Brother Xu is absent again that day, I can take his place and give you a shoulder to lean on."
"Who wants to rely on your shoulders?" Yu Ruanruan was furious and glared at Han Guangji.
But Han Guangji still looked at her with a smile, raised his hands, took a step back, and expressed his surrender to her, "Don't get excited, I really just want to help you and feel sorry for you."
"roll!"
Yu Ruanruan yelled angrily, stepped on her high heels, and ran quickly towards the banquet hall.
She ran a little staggeringly.
Outside the door of the banquet hall, a familiar figure walked out. The man had a handsome face, deep and stern eyebrows, and walked out of the banquet hall with a calm face, his footsteps were windy.
Seeing Huo Xu coming out, Yu Ruanruan's heart skipped a beat and she instinctively took a step back.
"Soft."
Huo Xu frowned, his eyes full of worry, and walked quickly towards Yu Ruanruan.
He felt the girl's shrinkage and fear.
Fearful eyes cannot deceive anyone.
Huo Xu's heart skipped a beat and he quickly approached Yu Ruanruan.
The girl clasped her hands together and stood there, tense all over.
Huo Xu stretched out his hand and wanted to hug her, but she avoided it reflexively, "Huo Xu..."
Yu Ruoruan's voice trembled slightly. Looking at Huo Xu with eyes full of concern and worry, the heartless and cruel Huo Xu flashed in her mind.
Same facial features, same person, but two completely different attitudes.
Yu Ruoruan felt as if her heart had been completely torn apart. She could neither forgive the cruel Huo Xu in the past nor let go of the gentle Huo Xu in front of her.
"Soft..."
Huo Xu heard her voice, so how could his heart not be in pain because of her entanglement and rejection?
"Ruanruan, I'm sorry..."
Huo Xu tentatively apologized, "I didn't notice you going out. Did something unhappy happen to you? Don't be afraid. I'm here and we'll face it together, okay?"
Face it together.
He guided her gently and patiently with such a magnetic and beautiful voice.
He tentatively opened his arms and slowly approached her. His heart really ached, and the anger in his heart was aroused at this moment.
However, he hid it very well. The more painful and cold his heart was, the gentler the expression on his face became. The more violent he was, the more cautious his tone of voice became.
Han Guangji, I can give you whatever you want.
But you shouldn't touch her!
He lay dormant for three months and tolerated not seeing her for three months before she could forget the pain and start accepting him again.
Huo Xu's gentle phoenix eyes hid murderous intent, and all his kindness and righteousness towards Guangzi turned into a coldness that would destroy both jade and stone at this moment.
The girl stood frozen on the spot, and every time he got closer, her body became stiffer.
Huo Xu's heart also lost its initial warmth little by little.
Time seemed to freeze. Huo Xu looked at the guarded posture of the girl in front of him, and the belief that supported him finally collapsed.
The gentleness and smile on his face slowly disappeared, and he slowly lowered his arms, like a mountain about to collapse.
But at this moment, the eyes of the girl in front of him, which had been wide open, were suddenly filled with tears, and all the guard and defense fell apart at this moment.
She rushed into Huo Xu's arms, broke down and cried.
【Which one is you? Huo Xu.】
【Will you always be like this and treat me like this? 】
[Will one day, you suddenly withdraw your kindness to me? Become the cruel man again? 】
