The two of them walked out of the building. Huo Xi Wen wanted to drive his own car, but Zhang Jun Xian"s car just happened to stop at the entrance. He walked two steps forward and opened the car door first.
Huo Xi Wen had no choice but to get on the carriage and sit on his secondary driving"s driving seat.
Zhang Jun Xian started the car and drove towards the main road. Huo Xi Wen sat on the car, her expression did not change, but her emotions were calm.However, what she did not know was that at that moment, behind them was a car. The person in the car had already captured the scene from the moment she received the flowers from Zhang Jun Xian.
Zhang Jun Xian parked his car in front of a Chinese restaurant.
The two got out of the car and walked into the restaurant.
Entering the room, under Zhang Jun Xian"s instructions, the waiter specially brought them to a seat close to the window.
After ordering the dishes, Huo Xi Wen stared at the scenery of the night outside the window in a daze.
Zhang Jun Xian waved his hand in front of her, "Hehehe, beautiful woman, come out and eat with me, can you not be so dazed?"
"Don"t you like being in a daze?" Huo Xi Wen returned to her senses and asked.
"Of course, since you"re acting like this, it"s clear that I don"t have any feelings for you."
"Oh, then I"ll be going." Huo Xi Wen said as she stood up.
"…" Seeing that, Zhang Jun Xian"s face was filled with speechlessness. He extended his hand out to pull her back: Ah, ah, ah, where are you going? We haven"t even eaten. "
"Didn"t you dislike me being in a daze?" Huo Xi Wen tilted her head and looked at him.
"No, no, I like you no matter what, okay?" Zhang Jun Xian also couldn"t do anything to her.
After hearing these words, Huo Xi Wen did not have the intention to leave. However, she suddenly looked at Zhang Jun Xian with an incomparably serious expression, and asked, "Zhang Jun Xian, you"re not pretending to be real, are you?
Hearing this, Zhang Jun Xian"s expression clearly stiffened, but in the next second, he started laughing out loud. "Hahaha, I love you, how is that possible?
"If there"s nothing good, then I"m afraid you"ll forget about the agreement between us." Huo Xi Wen retracted his gaze, and took a sip of the water on the table.
Zhang Jun Xian"s smile did not disappear as he continued, "Speaking of which, let me ask you, if I really fell in love with you, what would happen to you?"
"Nothing, it"s just that you may feel worse because I won"t fall in love with you." Huo Xi Wen"s expression was indifferent, and her tone did not carry much emotion.
He didn"t seem to care that he was in love with her. He just thought it would be troublesome.
"Oh? Why did you say you wouldn"t fall in love with me? Do you have someone you like in your heart? Who is it? " When Zhang Jun Xian said this, he had a probing expression.
Huo Xi Wen lifted her gaze, clear and calm as a spring, and looked straight at him, "Who is not important, you only need to know that that person can"t be you."
Hearing that, Zhang Jun Xian laughed again, and sighed: "Then I can relax, speaking of this, I am truly afraid that you will fall for me, that will be too troublesome."
"It"s for the best that you can think so." After Huo Xi Wen finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and she started to use all her strength to get the emerald bracelet on her wrist that was forcefully worn by the Mrs. Zhang.
Seeing that, Zhang Jun Xian frowned and asked: What are you doing?
Huo Xi Wen clenched her teeth and said, "This is for your future wife. I can"t take it, I"ll return it to you first. "The necklace is at home, I didn"t bring it with me. I"ll have someone deliver it to you when I get home."
"Don"t take it off, you can"t directly take it off like this, it will hurt your hand." Seeing that, Zhang Jun Xian immediately said.
Huo Xi Wen had to put in a lot of effort, but sshe was still unable to remove it. Inevitably, he felt dejected, "I really can"t take it off, hold on, I"ll go to the bathroom and get some detergent to lubricate it a bit."
After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave.
Seeing that, Zhang Jun Xian pulled her hand, "Enough, sit down."
Huo Xi Wen looked down at her, confused. "What"s wrong?"
"Even if you take it off, I won"t take it back. The bracelet was given to you by grandma, so it"s yours. You don"t have to care what it means. Furthermore, by returning the bracelet to me at this time, you want to tell your mother and my family that our relations.h.i.+p is fake? "
Huo Xi Wen didn"t think too much about it. She just felt that since she was pretending to accept such a precious and meaningful gift, it wasn"t appropriate for her to do so.
"Wasn"t it to avoid trouble that we decided to pretend to be together? If you take this bracelet off now, what do you think the elders will think? Do you have the courage to accept your mother"s disappointment? How could I explain all this to them? Huo Xi Wen, don"t you think that sometimes, when you do things you are too willful and selfish? " Zhang Jun Xian saw through her greatest fear, and asked.
Huo Xi Wen was convinced and did not insist on taking the bracelet off.
She slumped back in her chair. "Sorry, it seems I didn"t think it through."
"You are a businessman, you should know that integrity is important. Right now, we are partners, although we have not signed a contract, but we should also have a spirit of contract. Huo Xi Wen, please always remember that you are my, Zhang Jun Xian"s, nominal girlfriend, so please consider my position when you do something. "
"You"re right, I know. In the future, I will think more about you in matters like these." Huo Xi Wen happily accepted Zhang Jun Xian"s "advice", and his mood did not become very bad because of it.
In reality, ever since she met Fu Mu Yun in the dining hall that day, her mood had never been as bright and beautiful as before.
At that moment, the waiters started to serve the dishes one by one. She took the chopsticks and slowly placed the food into her mouth.
Although it was very delicious, it tasted exactly the same as chewing wax in her mouth.
It wasn"t easy for Zhang Jun Xian to send her home after finis.h.i.+ng her meal.
When Mrs. Howe saw Zhang Jun Xian, he immediately ordered the servants to welcome him and pulled him to talk for a good while.
Huo Xi Wen felt very tired, so she went upstairs first.
When she had finished was.h.i.+ng up and was lying on the bed preparing to sleep, Zhou Wan Ru lightly knocked on the door and came in.
"Xi Wen, Baby, what"s wrong? Are you tired today? You went upstairs before Junxian left. " Zhou Wan Ru saw Huo Xi Wen lying on the bed with a tired look, and could not help but feel sorry for him.
"Mummy, there have been a lot of things happening in the company recently, so I"m a bit tired. Where was the handsome man? Is he gone? " Huo Xi Wen propped himself up and leaned against the bed.
Zhou Wan Ru sat on the side of the bed, reached out and caressed her emaciated face, "I just left. Xi Wen, it"s been hard on you. It"s because Mummy is useless. Even Mummy can"t help you with such a huge stall landing on your body. "
"Mummy, don"t say it like that. Being able to inherit my father"s company is my fortune. Huo Jia Bao fought for it with all his might but he still didn"t manage to get this position. At least right now in Huo Family, no one would dare to bully us, mother and daughter. " Huo Xi Wen leaned his head into his mother"s embrace, trying to find some warmth from her body.
With her heart that had been hurt by Fu Mu Yun, she had nowhere to pour out her heart to others. She could only endure the pain by herself, as if nothing had happened.
In this world, the person who cared about her the most was her mother.
However, she didn"t want her to feel sad with him, so she chose to not mention a single word to hide her feelings in front of him.
She also felt a little tired.
Seeing Huo Xi Wen like this, Zhou Wan Ru reached out and patted her under the bed, comforting her like a child, "Xi Wen, you"ve already done well.
"Mummy, do you like Zhang Jun Xian?" At this time, Huo Xi Wen raised her head and looked at her mother again.
Originally, she had maintained her young face well, but because of her father"s death, she became overly sad. In the short span of two months, there were many lines at the corners of her eyes, making her look like she had aged ten years.
"Why do you ask? That kid, Junxian, is not bad. I really like him. " Zhou Wan Ru said while beaming.
"If... I mean, what if he"s not what you think? " Huo Xi Wen could not help but ask.
Hearing that, Zhou Wan Ru frowned, "What happened? Are you having an affair with him? Or did you discover that he did something bad? "
Huo Xi Wen saw that she was overthinking it and immediately waved her hand, "No, it"s not like that, I"m just …. Didn"t those gossip magazines have a lot of stories about him, saying he was a philanderer or something? "
"Oh, you"re talking about those boring gossips? Ignore it. Xi Wen, since you"re so old, you should know that many gossip magazines, news, and in order to do some eye-catching news, you would always create some random news and force it on those celebrities and rich merchants. I"ve asked someone to investigate that kid, so don"t worry. Although he has a lot of gossip, in reality, he has no relations.h.i.+p with those women. "Don"t worry about that." Zhou Wan Ru patted her shoulder as she explained.
At this time, Huo Xi Wen finally understood that her mother did not like Zhang Jun Xian that much from the very beginning either.
She actually had someone investigate this fellow behind his back.
This way, it would also mean that Zhang Jun Xian"s position in his mother"s heart had not yet become unshakeable.
If she was unable to continue acting in the future, then it wasn"t impossible for her to withdraw.
Of course, this was on the premise that she would find a better man to convince her mother.
The next day, in the morning, Huo Xi Wen came to the company and discovered that the employees of the company were looking at her with a weird expression.
After entering the CEO office, the secretary walked in nervously with a magazine in hand. "Miss Huo …" That... I have something to tell you. "
Huo Xi Wen looked at her hesitant appearance and frowned: "What"s wrong?"
The secretary carefully placed the magazine in front of her. Before she could even look at it, a.s.sistant Sun walked in hurriedly with a face full of worry, "Miss Huo, have you seen today"s news?"
