During the period when Zhu Shiguang came to Tancheng, Huo Shenxiu put aside some of the group's affairs and attended various dinner parties with him.
Therefore, in the few days after the Zhu family and his daughter left, he basically stayed at the company, dealt with the backlog of official work, and stayed at a nearby property at night.
For several days, Su Mi didn't see him much.
On the night of the fourth day, she was watching dramas in the living room on the first floor, just like the previous days.
I don’t know whether it’s because I’m following the drama or because I subconsciously want to wait for him to come back.
Just like before, the clock passed midnight and there was no sound at all outside the door.
She was dozing off, her eyelids were getting dark, and she probably wouldn't come back tonight. She was thinking of turning off the TV and heard the sound of cars outside.
The energy came up all of a sudden.
She opened her eyes and looked towards the entrance.
Sure enough, after a while, a familiar tall and tall figure walked into the door, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger in the entrance.
She was completely sleepless and stood up: "You are back."
The chandeliers and other big lights were not turned on in the living room, only the wall lamps and the TV screen were turned on to emit blue light.
Huo Shenxiu didn't expect that she hadn't slept yet. He stood by the clothes rack in the entrance hall and looked at her: "You haven't slept yet?"
She walked over and nodded: "Have you eaten? I made some small desserts tonight and there are some left. I'll get them for you?"
He knew that she was awake and waiting for him. His eyes moved slightly, and a hint of teasing appeared on his lips: "What time is it? If it's breakfast tomorrow morning, it hasn't been eaten yet."
She pursed her lips in embarrassment: "Then let me warm up a glass of milk for you? You should go back to your room to take a shower and change clothes first..."
Just as he was about to turn around, he felt his wrist being grabbed by someone, not lightly but not hard.
She was caught off guard and ran into his arms. Her forehead was pressed against his chiseled and clear jaw. She could feel the lightness of his breath. She was stunned and felt as if she had been given an injection.
My whole body was paralyzed and I couldn't move. My heartbeat was so fast that it was beating out of my chest.
He raised his hand, held the back of her petite head, fixed it diagonally below his face, and stared at her with his dark eyes:
"You've been waiting so late for me these days?"
Seeing that he saw it, Su Mi didn't hide it: "Yeah."
He flicked his thick eyelashes and said, "There's no need to work so hard."
"It's not hard, it's just sitting around watching TV shows. It's harder for you. Although your illness is better, you still have to take care of your body."
Although he has recovered physically, she is still haunted by his death.
Even if he saved his life, he would still be reminded to pay attention to his health from time to time.
He saw the worry in her eyes, and his heart actually felt a little melted. Finally, he opened his lips and said, "I know. I'm back now. You can go and rest."
She looked up at him.
I don't know why, but I always feel like he's a bit shy about me.
Even though she clearly feels that his attitude toward her has improved, and even often shows warmth and affection...
But it's still like there's a layer of veil between them.
He always seemed to stop in time and regain his senses when he was moved by her.
It seems a little less enthusiastic.
Maybe his feelings for her haven't reached that stage yet...
After all, he is a slow-tempered person, and he is not the kind of person who is easily fooled.
Now he has lost his memory, and he has only known her for a few months.
How can you expect him to be so enthusiastic and proactive towards a woman he has completely forgotten and only known for a few months?
She really wanted to find out how he felt about her, so she didn't leave and looked at him boldly:
"Did you ask Brother Long to arrange Gao Zang's matter?"
He knew that Han Fei had mentioned it to her, but he didn't deny it.
Su Mi's breathing slowed down: "Huo Shenxiu, have you started to like me? Even just a little bit?"
I don’t know what kind of courage she had to say these words.
Even if he thought he was being sentimental, he would still give it a go.
Huo Shenxiu looked at her and said slowly: "Because you are little Subao's mother. So I will not let others hurt you."
She took a few steps closer to him: "Then if not, will you let me be bullied by others and not help me vent my anger?"
Huo Shenxiu calmly said: "I won't answer the hypothetical question."
Then he avoided her: "It's getting late. Go to bed. Don't you still have work tomorrow?"
She was unwilling to give in and took a few steps back to block him.
He frowned and was about to speak, but in the dim light, he saw her eyes were red and her eyes were full of water.
It was the first time he saw her cry, at least in his current memory, and his heart immediately beat much faster.
I was so panicked that I felt like I was about to take Jiuxin Pills.
She took two steps towards him, raised her pale pink hands and grabbed his collar tightly, sobbing in a choked voice:
"Why do you remember everything but forget about me, Huo Shenxiu, how could you do this?"
His panic intensified, and he had the urge to stop her crying at all costs. After a while, he grabbed her wrist and slid it down slowly:
"I'm sorry. Give me some time."
He raised his fingertips again and wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes.
No matter what, he didn't want to see her cry.
"Go back to your room and sleep."
The slightly rough fingertips grazed the skin of her cheek, which doubled her courage and gave her the strength to fight completely.
I can't eat the hard ones, I can't eat the soft ones...
Then, the most shameful temptation she had before might be able to bring his relationship with her further.
Obviously before, I was so resistant to using seduction to get closer to him...
But she was really impatient.
He forgot everything and had the patience to take his time.
But she hasn't forgotten that patience is really not enough...
She took half a step forward and hooked her tiptoes around his neck. She pressed her entire soft body against his strong body and leaned close to his ear. Her breath was mixed with sobs, and it was all so charming that people couldn't stop saying:
"You hug me. Carry me back to the room."
As an actress, she is very familiar with how to arouse the perceptions of others.
Because of this, she also disdained using this method to gain his attention.
His body was obviously shaken, as if being ignited by a bomb. He was extremely uneasy, and his hands climbed up to her soft waist.
How can I bear such beauty?
The heat all over his body slowly dropped again.
Pull away from her body and lift up her trembling white chin:
"Did you do this to Holang before?"
Horan?
Su Mi looked stunned. She didn't understand why he suddenly mentioned Huo Lang, and her back felt cold several times:
"Holang and I have finished long ago. What do you mean?"
Intuition told her——
He was hot and cold towards her at times, but he couldn't be too devoted to her. It was always like there was a layer of veil between her, and he was a little defensive, because there was some knot in his heart that he hadn't gotten rid of yet.
And this knot in your heart has nothing to do with Huo Lang, right?
But Huo Lang and her have been together for hundreds of years and have been separated for a long time.
Huo Lang had already been hiding somewhere to avoid Ichiro Eguchi's revenge. Why did he suddenly bring up the old story between her and Huo Lang?
