Huo Jiyun was wearing work clothes and a safety helmet, holding a drawing of the construction site in his hand. He was followed by a group of related workers, one of whom was Manager Yu and Yu Hang. He was about forty years old. He was about the same height and appearance as Huo Jiyun.
Medium, well-dressed.
"Master Huo, you see, the construction site planning here is still in accordance with our previous project. But for some reason, we were reported by real name in the middle of the process, saying that we did not divide the areas according to the distances stipulated in the contract. There is a suspicion of cutting corners. I'm here.
I had already held a meeting with everyone and found the relevant local departments, but they all had an ambiguous attitude." The foundation had just been laid and not much had been built yet. Huo Jiyun looked around and saw that the surrounding area seemed very empty.
This was his first time at this construction site. He had seen it in videos before, but it was far from the real shock of seeing it with his own eyes.
The construction site is surrounded by sea water, and their construction concept is holiday villas and public residences. In order to allow people around them to afford housing, they set aside part of it for local people as resettlement housing in accordance with the contract. After seeing the pictures
After reading the draft and performing on-site operations, Huo Jiyun's eyes flashed with clarity.
"Take me to meet the local villagers."
On the third day after Huo Jiyun left, Xuan Ruoxi was invited to the Huo family's villa.
"Ruoxi, it's great that you can come." Mr. Huo smiled and looked very happy.
"Grandpa Huo, how are you doing lately?"
"My health is okay, but I have no one to talk to and I am very bored and lonely." The old man said aggrievedly. Xuan Ruoxi looked at the old man who looked like a child and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"You can actually walk around." The scenery near the villa is picturesque, making it a great place to go for a walk or an outing.
Mr. Huo naturally understood what she meant, but as a lonely old man, he naturally had to behave a little pitifully.
"No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you still need someone to accompany you. You see, I only have a grandson, and I don't have a granddaughter or anything like that. There are servants in the house, so it's not comfortable for them to accompany them." Saying this, Xuan
Ruo Xi couldn't talk about anything else.
"dense."
"Hey, old man, what are your orders?"
"What did Mr. Huo tell you when he left?" The old man was a shrewd man, and he would not say a nice word for his grandson when he got the chance.
"Oh, Mr. Huo said that he asked me to go to the welfare home to help Miss Xuan. He also said that if the old man gets lonely, he asked me to bring Miss Xuan to the villa to chat with you, have a meal and so on."
"Well, Ruoxi, listen, my grandson is pretty good, right? Respect the old and love the young, right?" Xuan Ruoxi smiled indifferently at Mr. Huo's words, "Yes, Mr. Huo is very good." She also said
Tell the truth.
The old man was very proud after hearing this. He sat at the dining table and kept talking about Huo Jiyun's childhood. Seeing that the old man was in a good mood, Xuan Ruoxi let him go. But she was also very curious about Huo Jiyun's childhood. So after what the old man said
Sometimes, she also listened very carefully.
"In the past, when Ji Yun's parents were still alive, our family didn't have much time to sit and eat together. Ji Yun's father was a filial man. No matter how busy he was at work, he would always take time to come home and visit. Ji Yun's mother was a strong woman.
, he does things vigorously and resolutely. He helps me in the company and is also a good hand.
Ji Yun only fell in love with business after spending a lot of time with his mother since he was a child. I remember that his father said with regret that in our area, I'm afraid everyone will have to change careers." The old man talked eloquently, and Xuan Ruoxi also took it seriously.
to the audience.
After dinner, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves. Xuan Ruoxi did not leave immediately, but was invited by the old man to his collection room. It is said that the old man is the founder of the Huo Group and has experienced many ups and downs.
After spending most of his life, the most talked about thing is his love of collecting antiques.
"Ruoxi, this is my collection room. What do you think? Have you been disappointed?" When Xuan Ruoxi came to the collection room, she was surprised and shocked. She heard that the old man was a person who liked to collect antiques. Unexpectedly,
So many antique treasures!
The house is full of antique calligraphy and paintings. It can be said that rare treasures are gathered together. It is like entering the emperor's treasure house.
"Did you collect all of these?" Looking around, Xuan Ruoxi couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"No, some are collected by me, and some are the hereditary antiquities of our Huo family. My Huo family has a family tree, and there are records in the history of past dynasties. Although the records in the early years are not as detailed as the records in the later years, they are enough for our children and grandchildren to know about Huo.
The family lineage has a long history." Listening to the old man's narration, Xuan Ruoxi looked at everything in the room with dazzled eyes.
"Are these really the relics of the Huo family?" She stared in surprise at each antique that existed in her previous dynasty.
"Yeah, do you recognize it?"
"This is similar to the one I saw last time I went to the museum. It's the 'Chai Kiln Blue Lily Cup'——"
"Yes, I have two of these flower vases, and that one was also donated by me. I kept this one instead of giving it all away." Xuan Ruoxi also saw several familiar objects. While surprised, she suddenly felt a sense of wonder.
The feeling of being pulled by fate.
Could it be that the Huo family was the Huo family at that time?
Is there any connection with the current Huo family?
This question persisted for a long time after she left the Huo family villa. She was lying in bed at night thinking about what she had just seen with her own eyes.
Could it be that her rebirth has some connection that she doesn't know about? Or does it mean she will come back in this life because the relationship is still intact?
As soon as this idea came up, she shook her head and rejected it, it was impossible! She had no special communication with the Huo family at that time. Even if she did, it was because of the love and hatred between the juniors. There could be no connection with the other updates!
But she saw the photo of Grandma Huo with her own eyes today, and it turned out that she was really similar to her, especially the charm between her eyebrows and eyes, which was almost 70-80% similar! It would be false to say that she had no doubts.
Huo Jiyun, who was thousands of miles away, didn't know that the secret room that he said he could only see after becoming one of his family members had been breached so easily. The initiator was his grandfather!
Two weeks later, Huo Jiyun came back. After getting off the plane, he went to the company as soon as possible. He summoned the senior staff and held a meeting for nearly two hours. After the meeting, he took a shower and changed clothes in the lounge, and took a nap.
In the evening, he drove to Xifuyuan.
Xuan Ruoxi couldn't tell how she felt when she saw Huo Jiyun appearing in front of her. She hadn't seen him for two weeks, but it wasn't like there was no contact. He would send her messages every night.
They stared at each other in silence for a while. Then Huo Jiyun stepped to the passenger seat and opened the door.
"Get in the car, I'm hungry." After a few hours of flying, a two-hour meeting, and a nap, Huo Jiyun was already ravenous.
Xuan Ruoxi got into the car without hesitation. Sensen had told her half an hour before he arrived.
Arriving at the reservation point, Huo Jiyun opened the door for Xuan Ruoxi in a gentlemanly manner. He said he would not have Western food tonight, but Chinese food.
After not seeing each other for more than ten days, Huo Jiyun turned a little darker and his cheeks became thinner. Xuan Ruoxi actually felt a little distressed.
Have you not had a good rest these past few days? The question was stuck in the throat as Xuan Ruoxi lowered her head and drank the juice.
"I haven't seen you for two weeks, are you okay?" Huo Jiyun asked first.
"Well, I'm fine. I've been in the orphanage - I even went to the villa last week to have dinner with Grandpa Huo."
"Grandpa told me. Ruoxi, thank you." Huo Jiyun thanked him seriously. Xuan Ruoxi looked at him and shook her head gently. Compared with what he did, she just had a meal with the old man, and she didn't do anything at all.
Worth to talk about.
"It's nothing, it's just a meal." There is also the matter of the family secret room. I don't know if the old man has mentioned it.
"You have met my grandma, right?" Huo Jiyun looked at her steadily, and Xuan Ruoxi could only nod honestly.
"I also looked at the antiques in the collection room. Grandpa Huo told me a lot about your Huo family's past."
"Hey, then don't I have no chance? Grandpa, grandpa, how can you dismantle your grandson!" Huo Jiyun suddenly said melancholy, but he was so handsome that he still looked good even if he winked deliberately. Xuan Ruo
Xi couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. She didn't expect that he had such a cute side. Huo Jiyun's face was melancholy, but his eyes were full of doting and tenderness.
"So now that you know all about my net worth, do you have the answer in your mind?" After two weeks of absence, he could receive messages or photos from Sensen from time to time.
During his absence, Yu Shaoqing also went to the orphanage. Not only did he chat and laugh with Xuan Ruoxi, but he also invited her to dinner and tea.
Seeing Xuan Ruoxi's bright smile in the photo, he felt a little anxious for no reason. He insisted on finishing the inappropriate matters within two weeks in order to come back as soon as possible to protect her. Even he felt incredible.
The agreement does not mean that it must be completed. If he is not willing, grandpa cannot really force him to marry an emotionless woman. What a shrewd man the old man is, if he had not seen the interest in his eyes, he would not be so proactive.
.It is also said that the blooming of iron trees is rare in ten thousand years. If you miss the opportunity, you will have to wait until the Year of the Dog and the Moon of the Horse.
"Ji Yun, I'm really sorry, I can't answer you right now." Xuan Ruoxi thought about it for a while and decided to refuse. It wasn't that she was being pretentious, she just didn't want to hand herself over easily.
The lessons learned from the past are still fresh in her mind. It really takes a lot of courage for her to get out of the past and start over. Marriage is undoubtedly a burden for her.
Seeing the melancholy in her eyes, Huo Jiyun seemed to have an unspeakable pain. Confused in his heart, he frowned and said, "Okay, I won't mention it for now. Then can you tell me your views on the existence of marriage?" He must prescribe the right medicine.
I know her inner concerns.
After eating this dinner, Xuan Ruoxi felt as if several years had passed.
The man who kept his mouth shut actually spent the whole night looking for opportunities to talk. This made her tasteless and ended in embarrassment.
"You should go to bed early tonight." They said goodbye at the entrance of the orphanage. Before leaving, Huo Jiyun said that Sensen would continue to be left to her. Xuan Ruoxi wanted to refuse, but was stopped by his deep eyes.
Back in her room, Xuan Ruoxi sat on the bed blankly, recalling the conversation between them just now. Huo Jiyun's attitude was not tough, but it put pressure on her invisibly. It always felt like he saw something.
The attitude is no longer so direct, but has a touch of tact.
"Then can you tell me your views on the existence of marriage?" How did she answer his question.
The long night is long, and people who are confused can find it difficult to sleep.
