"Ruoxi, I heard from Lulu that a handsome uncle came to you in a car just now and invited you to dinner. Is it Mr. Huo?"
Dean Xuan came out of it and took her hand before he could see the person in front of him clearly, with an excited and excited expression on his face.
Xuan Ruoxi didn't understand why the dean was so excited, but she could only admit it helplessly.
"Yes, he invited me to attend the banquet tonight, but the dean--"
"That's great. Go and get ready. Oh, by the way, you must not have a suitable dress. You'd better come with me."
"Wait, Dean, my desk--"
"The table, any table, just put it aside. Or, could you please Miss Song, please help me tidy it up."
"Okay, Dean Xuan, I'll just come." Song Yi smiled and took over the work in Xuan Ruoxi's hands. Watching Dean Xuan and Xuan Ruoxi leave, a bit of suspicion flashed in the corners of her slender eyes.
Who is Mr. Huo? He grabbed Lulu who was about to slip away from her. Song Yi pretended to be her sister and squatted down while smiling.
"Lulu, who was that uncle just now? What does he look like?"
"Well, I don't know who he is. He looks very handsome, and he has a black car, which is also very cool."
"Oh, really? Then is he pursuing sister Ruoxi?"
"Pursue?" Lulu blinked in confusion, she didn't quite understand what she meant.
"Ugh, Sister Song, I need to go to the bathroom - I can't hold it in anymore."
Song Yi let her go speechlessly and turned to look at the little girl running away quickly. A trace of jealousy flashed in Song Yi's eyes.
He is handsome, has a car, and is a rich kid.
However, she didn't think that the other party was sincerely pursuing Xuan Ruoxi, maybe just for fun.
Thinking of this, she immediately stopped being jealous and instead sneered;
"Hmph, with her life experience, she can only be a second aunt."
In the dean's room, there were scattered clothes everywhere on the floor and bed.
Xuan Ruoxi had no choice but to try on clothes and pack them away.
"Oh, don't move! Let them mess up. The most important thing now is to order a decent dress for you."
"Dean, I have a dress in the cabinet, you bought it for me--"
"That's different. You've already worn all the previous ones, and you're a big girl now, how can you still wear those pink ones! The Huo family's banquet must be a family banquet held in their villa. There will be relatives and friends.
Friends and the like are here, and as Mr. Huo's only female companion, you naturally can't be careless." Dean Xuan's health has been declining recently, and his face has also become thinner. Xuan Ruoxi couldn't bear to disobey her, so he let her be happy. But
Deep down, I was still worried about her health.
"Dean, you have been too tired recently. Uncle Zhou told me to pay more attention to you--"
"Oh, don't listen to his nonsense, I'm fine."
When Xuan Minru said this, she couldn't help but cough.
Xuan Ruoxi nervously helped her dress: "Dean, please stop being so busy. I will choose the clothes myself. I will definitely choose the clothes that satisfy you, okay?"
"Ahem! Okay, then you... ahem! Choose for yourself!" Helping the dean sit on a chair nearby, Xuan Ruoxi poured her a glass of water first, and then went to choose clothes resignedly.
.The dean still has a lot of clothes, most of which were bought when she was young.
At that time, she was a wealthy young lady, and she had everything she wanted. Later, after she got married, her life direction changed, and the gears of her destiny changed. She was so busy and overworked that she had no extra thought to take care of herself, let alone wear those beautiful clothes.
clothes.
Xuan Ruoxi finally selected a retro-style dress among a pile of clothes.
The raised collar is both conservative and safe. The exquisite embroidered buckles are made with fine workmanship. The length of the skirt covers the top of the feet. The color is a faint gradient of smoky color. The black and white gradient color is originally relatively dark, but for some reason, when it is announced,
Ruoxi looks particularly elegant after wearing it.
Dean Xuan's eyes flashed with surprise! I didn't expect Ruoxi to choose this dress.
Well, the retro skirt is not out of date. What surprised her was Ruoxi's classical temperament - it was so outstanding!
I used to think that she was talented and intelligent, and could learn everything at her fingertips. Now, Dean Xuan felt as if he saw a classical beauty walking out of a painting! Noble and elegant;
This dress was bought when she was in her forties, and she only wore it once or twice at that time. Because of her outstanding temperament, it was somewhat suitable, but it was not as suitable as Ruoxi. According to her age, most people would not wear it at all.
I can't wear it to achieve such an effect.
Ruoxi's demeanor has changed since she woke up from the car accident. She still looks like her, and her personality has not changed. However, many of her living habits have become more rigorous and sophisticated! It once made Dean Xuan think that she had suddenly grown several years older.
people.
"Dean, that's it." A retro-style dress suits her better, and she doesn't like colors that are too bright.
"Ruoxi, it's so beautiful. It's as if the fish are falling and the geese are falling, and the flowers are blooming with closed eyes, but that's all." Dean Xuan Ruoxi exclaimed, making Xuan Ruoxi feel a little embarrassed.
"Feel like something is missing?" Dean Xuan dragged his chin and asked Xuan Ruoxi to turn around a few times.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, "Why did you forget it!" Xuan Minru walked to her safe and carefully took out a box.
The black velvet box seems to have been aged for a long time. When you open the box, you will find a set of jewelry inside.
"Ruoxi, take them with you." Xuan Ruoxi nodded obediently, first put on the earrings, then the necklace, and a hair accessory. She simply tied up her long hair and fixed it with a slender hair accessory.
.
"This set of jewelry was something I liked very much back then. Did you know that it was given to me by your Uncle Zhou?"
"..." Xuan Ruoxi was surprised. She thought it was a gift from the dean's husband.
"Your Uncle Zhou, he is a fool." Dean Xuan said with tears in his eyes.
"Dean--" Xuan Ruoxi supported her, her heart was touched. A woman has such an expression because of her feelings.
She knew that Dean Xuan was married, and she also knew Dr. Zhou's feelings for her. She looked like a young girl in her twenties, but her heart was full of holes. She saw clearly the love between men and women,
She could understand Mr. Huo's eyes before, but she could only pretend not to understand.
She understood the dean's hints intentionally or unintentionally.
I'm afraid tonight's family dinner is not a simple banquet---
Huo Jiyun came to the door of Xifuyuan at the agreed time. Xuan Ruoxi was already waiting at the door, with Dean Xuan standing next to him.
Seeing them talking from the car window, Xuan Ruoxi's dress surprised him!
I didn’t expect that a young girl would wear such retro and mature clothes and still have such a perfect temperament. It’s incredible!
Is she really only in her twenties? For the first time, Huo Jiyun felt this way for the second time.
That calm, gentle, dignified and skillful look is not what a girl in her twenties should have! Is it a natural combination that she is born with? Or is it caused by her later life environment? Huo Jiyun found that he was becoming more and more curious about Xuan Ruoxi.
"Dean Xuan." The car stopped on the side of the road, and Huo Jiyun got out of the car and walked to them in three or two steps.
Xuan Minru was naturally happy when she saw the visitor.
"Master Huo is here." Huo Jiyun nodded to her and looked at Xuan Ruoxi, with her exquisite dress, beautiful facial features, and dignified and elegant demeanor between her eyebrows - she was like a queen!
Huo Jiyun burst into laughter at his fleeting thoughts.
