She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

"How? Are you willing?"

"Is this... a proposal?"

Wen Yingying's eyes widened in disbelief. Looking from her point of view, Huo Xi stood against the light, as if a god had descended from the sky.

Just like when she was trapped in a dark cabinet and almost fainted, Huo Xicheng suddenly opened the cabinet door and took her out.

The woman who just now said that she was just a young and ignorant woman with budding hormones was now looking at him expectantly. Huo Xicheng just glanced at it, and the words that were on his lips suddenly turned into a few words that were neither cold nor cold. , "If you understand it that way, that's okay."

"!"

For a moment, Wen Yingying almost couldn't believe her ears, because she really couldn't believe that the girl's dream of having a spring when she was young would actually come true one day!

Although Huo Xicheng said it in such a nonchalant tone, it is undeniable that the heart that had been silent for many years suddenly beat uncontrollably again——

"Why? Didn't you and Rong Yan just get engaged? You...don't you like her at all? Then why are you still engaged to her?"

Finally, he asked the questions that had been lingering in his mind for a long time, but Huo Xicheng burst into laughter, "How do you want me to answer so many questions?"

"First of all, Rong Yan and I are indeed engaged. But our marriage is a business marriage. Before the engagement, we didn't even meet more than ten times, so we can't say we like her very much."

"As for why we agreed to the engagement, it was just the intention of both parents, plus our personalities are quite harmonious."

"So you really don't like her at all?"

Unexpectedly, she was still struggling with this issue. Huo Xicheng pinched his eyebrows. He was not a person who liked to repeat the same question twice.

But the other party was not his subordinate, but a little girl who cried so much that she was crying because of him, so he patiently repeated -

"Didn't you just explain it? Besides...how much do you think I can like someone who I haven't met ten times in total?"

"..." The little girl was silent and seemed to understand what he said. Huo Xicheng was inexplicably relieved. He suddenly felt that the little girl was more troublesome than handling a contract worth tens of billions. Fortunately, he still got it without any surprise. Got off.

after all……

She likes him.

Even if she didn't admit it, he could still see it on her face.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, she still hasn't changed.

Inexplicably, Huo Xichen curled his lips and stretched out a hand to her, "Why don't you get up? Isn't the ground cold?"

"..."

Wen Yingying was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at the hand in front of her—

He wore an expensive watch on his wrist, his nails were neatly manicured, and his bones were clearly slender. Perhaps his skin was too fair, and the veins and veins on the back of his hands could be clearly seen.

These hands once saved her from danger, once rubbed the top of her soft hair, and even left bruises on her body...

Now, it was right in front of her, waiting for her to reach out—

As long as she stretched out her hand, she could hold the person who had always been elusive in her hand.

This was a scene that was deeply ingrained in her mind in many midnight dreams. However, when it actually happened, she was not so happy——

I don’t know how many seconds or minutes passed, but Wen Yingying suddenly stood up by herself against the wall, looked at the man in front of her who was a head taller than herself, and tugged at the corner of her mouth——

"No, I don't want to do this."
