"Manager Li, what do you mean this is? Manager Yu is obviously responsible for this matter, so why does Huo Shao blame us?" Li Weijie, also known as Manager Li in their mouth, stood up slowly and closed his notebook.
He said expressionlessly: "He is the boss, so he said we should do it. As senior leaders of the company, we all have the obligation to contribute to the company. Mr. Huo is right to say it, and he is not wrong to criticize either." After that, he
He left the meeting room. Others could only shake their heads and leave.
Huo Jiyun returned to his office and called Sensen.
"Master Huo, do you have anything to do with me?"
"I'm going to the peninsula tomorrow. You can help me book a place for tonight. I want to ask Ruoxi out for dinner."
"Then I'll make a decision right away."
"Wait a minute, let's decide on a Western restaurant near the orphanage."
"Oh, okay, I understand."
"Besides - my grandpa's side - forget it, I'll have to say it myself. You go first, make a reservation and send me your location. You don't have to drive tonight."
"Master Huo, do you want to drive it yourself? Otherwise, I-"
"It's okay, I want to be alone with Ruoxi tonight." Sensen gave him a look and shut up immediately.
"Okay, Mr. Huo." After saying that, he disappeared immediately.
Huo Jiyun thought for a while and called the villa's phone number.
"Hey, who is that?"
"Wu Ma, it's me, where is grandpa?"
"Oh, it's Mr. Huo. The old man was taking a nap just now and hasn't gotten up yet!"
"Then tell grandpa that I won't go back to the villa for dinner tonight, so you don't have to wait for me, and tell him that I'm going on a date."
"Oh, okay, okay, I'll tell the old man when he wakes up." After hanging up the phone, Huo Jiyun concentrated on the work at hand. He was on a business trip tomorrow and had to finish what he was doing.
In the evening, Xuan Ruoxi came to the Western restaurant near Xifuyuan as agreed.
Shortly afterwards, Huo Jiyun arrived dressed neatly in a suit.
"Have you waited long?"
"No, just arrived." They said to each other with a smile.
There was a hint of pampering in Huo Jiyun's eyes, but Xuan Ruoxi lowered her head and didn't notice it.
"The company has been a little busy recently, so I didn't ask you out. You don't blame me, right?" Huo Jiyun's words were too intimate and ambiguous, which made Xuan Ruoxi feel a little uncomfortable.
"You are so busy, how could I not understand?" Xuan Ruoxi said with a blushing face as she lowered her head and stirred the spoon in the cup.
Huo Jiyun raised his eyebrows. Seeing her shy face, the doting in her eyes became even gentler.
"With your understanding, I feel at ease." Realizing that the words between them were like conversations between lovers, Xuan Ruoxi couldn't help but cough a few times to hide her inner embarrassment.
Afraid that she would continue to be shy, Huo Jiyun stopped joking and said seriously: "The reason why I asked you out tonight is because I have to go on a business trip for a while. The three-month period I originally agreed on is about to pass in one month.
"I won't be able to come back for two weeks after I go out. I want to ask you, can you go a little earlier?" Xuan Ruoxi looked at him in surprise, not quite understanding what he said. She has been away for two weeks! She understood, what is that?
Is it in advance?
Seeing her eyes full of confusion, Huo Jiyun rarely became nervous.
"What I mean is - can we confirm our relationship early! In other words, I want to be your boyfriend in advance." The knife and fork in Xuan Ruoxi's hand fell with a clang! Realizing that she had lost her composure, she hurriedly grabbed a tissue.
Wipe clothes.
"Are you okay? Waiter!"
"Good morning sir!"
"Get this lady a new set of knives and forks."
"OK, just a second."
"Sorry. I need to go to the bathroom." He almost ran away.
Looking at her hurriedly escaping back, Huo Jiyun raised the corners of his mouth and stared meaningfully in his dark eyes.
Xuan Ruoxi hid in the bathroom, looking at herself in the mirror, her face was as red as fire, and her heart was beating like thunder.
"I want to be your boyfriend in advance." So suddenly, how should she answer? Should she refuse? Or was she considering it? She was so confused that she didn't know how to face him.
"Did you see the handsome guy in the restaurant just now? He looked like a movie star." Several women were talking in the bathroom. Xuan Ruoxi pretended to wash her hands, and the women walked past her and glanced at her.
"I think he looks familiar. I think I've seen him somewhere before? Could he really be a celebrity?"
"Probably not, celebrities will come here to eat?"
"But he is so handsome, even prettier than a celebrity." The women's voices faded away, and Xuan Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief. They should be talking about Huo Jiyun. Look at yourself in the mirror, take a few deep breaths, and your face will look better.
Already.
Returning to the dining table, Huo Jiyun was drinking coffee elegantly. When he saw her coming out, he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled. How can a smile be so charming? Xuan Ruoxi felt that his eyes were filled with sparkling glass.
"Are you okay?" He looked at her tenderly. Xuan Ruoxi slowly sat down under his gaze, nodded and said, "I'm fine."
"Let's eat. It won't taste good if it's cold." The waiter had already brought her clean knives and forks.
"Thank you." Xuan Ruoxi thanked her, then lowered her head and ate in silence.
During the meal, he still kept his mouth shut. Huo Jiyun was still a CD. His living habits had been formed and were imprinted in his bones just like his character.
"How did you get here, on foot or by bike?"
"I'm walking."
"Then let's go for a walk together so that we can eat enough and digest it easily." Xuan Ruoxi nodded in agreement.
On the road, they didn't talk, but walked quietly and slowly. Huo Jiyun was not upset about his directness. He had never been in love, but he really wanted to date Xuan Ruoxi.
He is usually a leader who is so rigorous that it makes people breathless. This is the first time like this today. Maybe it was the photo that Lin Xi sent him that stimulated him.
"I'm sorry! I was too anxious just now." As a man, he felt that he should apologize first.
"I, I was wrong too." Xuan Ruoxi didn't expect that he would apologize. When she was stunned, her speech became stammering.
"You're right. Since you don't want to, then we still have to follow the previous agreement. I will go out this time and won't be back for a while. If my grandfather comes to find you, you can give me face and accompany him. Is that okay?"
Stopping, Huo Jiyun looked at Xuan Ruoxi seriously.
Xuan Ruoxi couldn't refuse him at all, so she nodded to his chin and said, "Okay." Seeing that she didn't dare to look at him, Huo Jiyun narrowed his eyes and was a little disappointed. But he didn't say anything more for fear of scaring him.
to her.
In the business world, he can be decisive and decisive, and he is very merciless when facing his enemies. But when facing Xuan Ruoxi, he actually feels a kind of vague awe. He is afraid that she will be unhappy.
"Is the orphanage okay? Is there a shortage of funds?"
"Fortunately, there is a temporary supply." Everything is stable now, and daily necessities will be provided by kind people. There will be no shortage of money for a while.
"That's good. When I'm not around, you can call on Sensen." Or you can dispatch him yourself.
"Won't he go together?" Xuan Ruoxi asked subconsciously. After asking, she felt something was wrong. Huo Jiyun glanced sideways at her, and saw that she wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"If he doesn't come with me, I will leave it to you." This seems to mean that the general is going on a long journey, so he leaves behind his bodyguard to protect his beloved woman.
Xuan Ruoxi's heart became confused again. She quietly raised her head and met Huo Jiyun's gentle eyes.
Heart Lake Ding Dong! A pool of spring water was instantly disturbed. I hurriedly looked away, my breath was confused. I was also startled by my own thoughts.
Huo Jiyun's heartbeat was also erratic. It turned out that this was heartbeat.
It is undeniable that he was a little surprised when he saw the photo Lin Xi sent him, and also felt a little inexplicable annoyance.
Yu Shaoqing is his good friend. He knows his personality very well, and he has never doubted his personal charm.
If it were another woman, it would naturally have nothing to do with him, but Xuan Ruoxi couldn't! Their relationship couldn't be disturbed.
He unconsciously held her shoulders with his hands, leaned down slightly, and faced the woman who was close at hand. He looked into her eyes and said in a low voice: "Ruoxi, wait until I come back."
Above the blue sky, the plane pierced the sky, and Huo Jiyun's flight had already taken off. Sitting in the first-class cabin, Huo Jiyun was wearing business attire, with a serious expression, and the spacious seats were all single-seaters.
Looking at the photo on the phone, a smile slowly appeared on her sexy mouth. In the photo, Xuan Ruoxi was eating with her head down, with a little steak on the half-raised knife and fork, and her slightly opened red lips showed a natural color.
She seems to rarely wear lipstick, and her lips are a natural red color. Looking at her unpainted cheeks, I really want to kiss them.
After Sensen saw off his boss, he went directly to the orphanage.
Before Huo Jiyun left, he specifically warned him to "serve" the future Mrs. Huo well. As a result, he happily hid in the orphanage, where he could not only play with the children, but also get close to Xiao Dingtong.
Xuan Ruoxi suffered from insomnia all night because of what Huo Jiyun said the night before he left: "Ruoxi, wait until I come back."
On the next day, when she saw Sensen who was assigned to come, she remembered that he had said before leaving that he would let Sensen come. It was not to help but to assign him directly.
"Sister Ruoxi, why are you in a daze?" Xiao Ding stared at Xuan Ruoxi with a blank look on her face in surprise. This was the third time that she had been in a daze today.
"I think Sister Ruoxi misses our Master Huo, right?" Sensen teased with a chuckle, making Xuan Ruoxi blush.
"Sensen, don't talk nonsense! My sister Ruoxi will not miss Mr. Huo." Xiao Ding deliberately looked sideways at Xuan Ruoxi, and Sensen looked at each other with a smiling chicken thief.
"Sensen, what did Mr. Huo ask you to do?" Suddenly, Xuan Ruoxi asked quietly. Sensen blinked and realized that he wouldn't be hit by a gun again, would he?
"Sister Ruoxi, I was wrong. Mr. Huo said - let me stay in Xifuyuan and don't run around if nothing happens. Otherwise, my year-end bonus will be deducted." Listening to Sensen's hurried words and his funny expression,
It immediately made the children watching laugh.
Xiao Ding also laughed so hard that he couldn't stand up straight. This attitude of begging for mercy was like a eunuch who knelt down and begged for mercy after being questioned by the empress. Xuan Ruoxi also couldn't laugh or cry. She didn't seem to say anything. The whole place was filled with laughter and laughter.
Welfare Home. Xuan Ruoxi didn’t expect Sensen to be so funny. With him around, the children’s faces also had a lot more smiles.
In the classroom, Xiao Ding and Sen Sen played cartoon characters and played games together. Xuan Ruoxi stood at the door and watched their funny and wonderful performance. The confusion on her face disappeared, and she felt really happy.
