Out of control and charming

Chapter 2 I like you more

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Zhixu noticed something was wrong.

In any case, this is a decision made by two families. It's true that he was tricked by his family, but he couldn't vent his anger on the girl.

What's more, Miss Li may have no choice but to do so.

Just as Huo Zhixu was about to apologize, he saw the girl who had always been very quiet stood still and looked up at him, smiling slightly, her eyes were slightly curved, her eyelashes were long and dense, and her eyes were clear and translucent.

Then he said something he couldn't have imagined.

"You and I are just in-laws of the Huo Li family. I like you more."

"."

Huo Zhixu's frown never relaxed.

He had met Li Lucen at a party two years ago. Li Zhi was so bored that he invited some famous people from England to come over and have a party. Unlike other people who were well dressed, although Li Lucen was not simply dressed, his face was very plain and his hair was just pulled up casually.

It was as if she had just finished her homework and was changing clothes when her friends pulled her over to have fun with her.

They just said hello briefly, and never met each other again, and never saw each other again.

Now this man is standing in front of him and looking up at him with a smile and saying that he likes him?
  funny.

He would be a fool to believe it.

However, this did reveal a piece of information.

"It's you who told the family."

The man paused, unable to speak her exact words, and took a breath with a headache.

"You chose me?"

Li Lucen nodded.

"Brother Zhixu is surprised?"

Huo Zhixu raised his hand and touched the back of his ear, unable to bear the sound.

"What did Huo Zhizhen do to make you unhappy?"

Li Lucen smiled and shook his head.

She had relatively more interactions with Huo Zhizhen than she had with Huo Zhixu, but that was due to arrangements between the two families.

Moreover, she was very young at that time and did not understand the relationship between men and women. After high school, she went to England, and the relationship between the two naturally ended.

After returning to China, it was Huo Zhizhen who came to pick her up and had a conversation that was not a heart-to-heart talk.

She also knew that Huo Zhizhen had someone else he liked.

Just what she wanted.

Li Lucen did not talk about this matter, but gave his own reasons.

"Brother Zhizhen, I don't get along well with him. You are closer to me."

Huo Zhixu:
  He and Huo Zhizhen are only one and a half years apart, but Huo Zhizhen does look like an old cadre.

but.

"Miss Li and I haven't had much conversation."

His dissatisfaction and displeasure were expressed both inside and outside his words.

If it weren't for his upbringing, another person would have left in shame.

Li Lucen didn't seem to be unhappy because of Huo Zhixu's repeated implicit rejections. She tilted her head slightly.

"I think our conversation today was okay."

Huo Zhixu felt a tightness in his chest with nowhere to vent. The little girl looked at Wen Wen quietly, why was she so stubborn? He has said so, why should he say it even more harshly?

Li Lucen observed the man's emotions.

Huo Zhixu's resistance was completely within her expectation.

How could the wild geese flying between the mountains and sea be willing to stay in this world?

Still bound by this most cold and heartless marriage.

She had thought about this problem before, struggled with it, and later figured it out.

Marriage is inevitable, so she hopes she can choose the partner herself.

Huo Zhixu was born in the Huo family, so he should understand this truth.

Take it easy.

"Brother Zhixu, today is not a good time to talk about this issue. Do you have time tomorrow? I can give you a reason that you can accept."

Hearing this, Huo Zhixu lowered his head and looked at the girl in front of him seriously.

"reason?"

Li Lucen shook his shoulders slightly and said with a smile.

"Just relying on Zhong Yi for your reason is too shallow, and it won't do you any good."

Compared with two years ago, the girl has grown longer. She is wearing makeup again today and her smile is particularly bright and charming.

Huo Zhixu looked away.

He was not used to being confessed, but Li Lucen was the first to be so straightforward, saying it twice in a row. “Okay, where can we meet? Add your contact information?”

As he spoke, Huo Zhixu took out his cell phone and finally regained his gentlemanly demeanor.

Li Lucen stretched out his hands to take his phone and clicked it a few times. The man took it, lowered his head, and moved his brows slightly.

It turns out that contact information has been added a long time ago.

The chat interface is still an official mechanical message.

I don't know when he added it, but there is no movement at all in his friends list.

Li Lucen made an appointment at a hotel restaurant owned by the Huo family, and she was about half an hour early. She was chatting with the restaurant manager when Huo Zhixu arrived.

Seeing the visitor, the restaurant manager immediately greeted him.

Li Lucen turned his head to look at him, frowning.

"Brother Zhixu, are you here?"

Huo Zhixu still wasn't comfortable with this title.

In his opinion, Li Lucen is not a girl with this kind of personality.

The eldest daughter of the Li family received unique heir training standards and is smart and outstanding. Even though she is young, her indifferent temperament always makes people ignore her age.

Every time I saw her before, she always had that image.

What went wrong in the middle to make her look like this in front of him.

He nodded as a response. Before he could sit down, his cell phone rang. It was Li Lucen's cell phone.

"Sorry, Brother Zhixu, let me take a call."

"you busy."

The girl smiled apologetically, stood up and walked out neatly, turning sideways just enough for Huo Zhixu to see her features.

Not far away, the smile in her eyes disappeared, and her expression immediately became calm and serious, clearly visible.

A sudden change, such a contrast is really attractive.

Huo Zhixu lowered his eyes, sat down and stretched out his hand, and the manager handed over the menu.

"What were you talking about just now?"

"Ms. Li seems to be more interested in our restaurant's menu and services and learned some details."

Huo Zhixu paused.

He heard that the Li family was already interested in letting Li Lucen join the family business.

Whether the heir to the Li family is qualified or not will only be known through hard work.

It’s interesting, even if you ask him out for dinner, you won’t forget about work.

Huo Zhixu put down the menu and looked out the window.

Li Lucen just walked to the terrace. She lowered her head slightly and listened to the phone, occasionally replying a few words. I have to admit that Li Lucen is the embodiment of a wealthy family's descendants being trained as heirs.

Even if she is wearing a more casual long dress today, just a temporary work call can make people ignore her dress and directly feel her competence and aura.

Huo Zhixu thought of the family meeting last night.

There is no way he can go back to England.

At twenty-six years old, after playing for three years, it’s time to calm down.

The family has given an ultimatum. Huo Zhizhen has his own way to go, and he will eventually bear what is his responsibility.

“What’s the most popular drink among women at a restaurant?”

A quarter of an hour after Li Lucen finished making the call, he came in and saw Huo Zhixu personally placing the drinks brought by the waiter in front of her seat.

Seeing this scene, Li Lucen thought of his mother's worries.

"Honey, Huo Er has been out in the field for so many years, so he may behave inappropriately."

Li Lucen curled his lips.

Her dear mother simply loved her too much and worried too much.

"I don't know what Miss Li likes. I heard that this one is very good. Do you want to try it?"

Li Lucen sat down and took a sip.

"I love so much."

Huo Zhixu raised his brows slightly, relaxed his back and leaned back on the chair. He was tall, had long legs and long hands, and he did not look rude in this lazy sitting posture.

Unlike yesterday, Huo Zhixu was dressed much more casually today.

He was wearing a black casual shirt with three buttons unbuttoned, slightly exposing his chest. The sleeves were rolled up to his wrists. His muscle lines were beautiful only for those who exercised and kept fit all year round.

Li Lucen even guessed that Mrs. Huo forced him to put on this shirt.

Dealing with people like Huo Zhixu requires directness, so she took out a document directly from her bag.

"Brother Zhixu, this is an agreement I drew up. Take a look."
