Chapter 173 Can I have a chance?

Of course these things are gone.

After all, he and the original owner had an agreement to get married from the beginning. The marriage lasted for two years. If she was content, she would be given a large sum of money after the divorce, which would be enough for her to live the rest of her life in peace.

Li Zhao glanced sideways at Huai Xu.

She noticed that he felt guilty for a moment when he touched her eyes, and subconsciously moved away after touching her.

Li Zhao suppressed the corners of his mouth that wanted to raise.

It's rare to see him show such an expression.

Quite fresh.

He coughed lightly and deliberately teased him: "Axu, he might not like these forms."

Ying Huaixu's back stiffened and he opened his mouth to explain something, but finally closed his mouth silently.

The stepmother noticed the subtle changes in Ying Huai Xu and couldn't help but chuckle: "He is indeed a bit slow in terms of emotions. His father and I both thought that he would spend the rest of his life guarding his group alone."

"Haha. Why doesn't he understand? It's a contract marriage, why do we need these formalities?"

Ying Fangxu said a word and was silent again.

He looked at Ying Huai Xu mockingly and sneered: "This good son of eldest brother has really inherited all his genes. If it is beneficial, he can use it even in marriage."

"Shut up!"

Mr. Ying scolded angrily: "On New Year's Day, the whole family is not gathering together for you to fight!"

Ying Fangxu was not afraid of him at all. Since he had already broken his reputation, wouldn't it be ridiculous to keep pretending?

He has always held a grudge against the old man.

Although he is obviously better than his eldest brother in all abilities, he still leaves the group to his eldest brother.

Even if the eldest brother was ill in the end and inherited the group to his eldest son, who plotted to murder his eldest son, Mr. Ying would rather force a rebellious boy who had just graduated from college and was unwilling to inherit the family property to inherit the group than hand over the group to him. Take care of him.

Why?
"Old man, stop pretending. It's disgusting. No one has time to accompany you here to perform this family reunion and happy drama."

"dad……"

Ying Yujing sat on Li Zhao's lap and looked at his father blankly, apparently frightened.

He has never seen such a father...

Mr. Ying looked very ugly and called the nanny to take Ying Yujing back to his room.

"What nonsense are you talking about in front of children?! How old are you? You don't look like an adult at all!"

"Did I insist on picking up A Jing?"

"You...!" Mr. Ying's face turned red, he held his heart and breathed heavily.

After all, Mr. Ying is already considered an advanced age, and his mood swings are too high, which is more likely to be bad for his health.

"Okay, okay, just stop saying a few words and don't make your father angry again."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the stepmother opened her mouth, Mr. Ying and Ying Fangxu both fell silent.

Li Zhao glanced at his stepmother in surprise.

She was taking out her cell phone and seemed to be dialing her family doctor.

"Hey, Doctor Zhang, I'm sorry, could you please come over now."

He hung up the phone and sighed again: "Since everyone is back, let's have the New Year's Eve dinner before leaving. At least in these few days, don't cause any trouble."

After saying that, he turned back to advise Ying Huaixu: "I already know what happened between you, but your father will be back tomorrow, and you also know that he has always been in poor health, so don't irritate him."

The stepmother was silent for a moment and then spoke again: "After dinner in the evening, come to the room with me."

Ying Huaixu didn't say anything, which was regarded as acquiescence.

"Humph."

Ying Siyan snorted coldly, turned around and went upstairs.

"..."

It looked like he was angry again.

"Is this Li Zhao's first time coming to the old house? I'll take you and Ah Xu to your room."

"it is good."

Li Zhao and Ying Huaixu followed their stepmother upstairs.

The stepmother and the two of them stopped at the door of a room.

"This is your room. If you don't understand anything, just ask A Xu. Although he hasn't been back for many years, he knows where the old house is."?

"Your"... room?

Where is this "we"?
Li Zhao looked around, was stunned for a while, pointed at himself, and then at Ying Huaixu: "We... us?"

The stepmother always had a kind smile on her face.

"Of course, isn't it normal for a husband and wife to sleep in the same room? So you didn't sleep together at home? That's really embarrassing. I don't know. The other rooms have not been cleaned. If you ask someone to clean them, they will have to be cleaned at least tomorrow. There are people living there…”

Li Zhao: "..."

Ying Huai Xu: "..."

"Today I have no choice but to let you two sleep together."

After saying that, she quickly stepped out of the way.

Before leaving, he quietly winked at Ying Huaixu.

Ying Huaixu: "..." It is her consistent style to be good at making opinions.

The two people were left with dull faces.

This……

I thought she was just joking, but the two of them opened several rooms. The rooms had indeed not been cleaned, so they were not just talking casually.

Ying Huaixu was silent for a moment: "...I'm sorry."

Li Zhao pursed his lips.

The matter has come to this, and there is no other way.

This is his home, there's no way he could be kicked out to sleep in the corridor.

Li Zhao sighed and walked into the room resigned to his fate.

Ying Huaixu laughed softly and followed her into the room.

Ok……

Ms. Bai did a good job this time. You can buy a necklace to reward her.

Ms. Bai is referring to his stepmother.

Li Zhao looked around, and Ying Huai Xu's deep voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Contract marriage...is not for you."

Li Zhao was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at him: "Huh? What did you say?"

Ying Huaixu paused and repeated what he just said: "Contract marriage is not for you."

"..."

Li Zhao was stunned for a while before he understood what he meant.

Unexpectedly, he cared about what she just said.

"Are you...explaining?"

"It is."

For a long time, Li Zhao couldn't help but chuckle.

"I just said those words to tease you. I didn't expect you to care so much."

Ying Huaixu took a few steps closer to her, lowered his head slightly, his eyes shone with an unclear light, and he seemed to have made a lot of determination.

He slowly put his arms around her shoulders and gently pulled her body into his embrace, with the utmost gentleness and intimacy.

His embrace was hot and warm, making him feel very safe.

Li Zhao could feel the two arms surrounding her trembling slightly.

Are you nervous?
Then, Ying Huaixu's gentle and deep voice came from above his head.

"But I'm serious. If you'd like...can I have a chance?"

Li Zhao was stunned for a moment, his heartbeat seemed to skip a beat, and he subconsciously replied: "What chance?"

Hearing this, Ying Huaixu slowly let go of her, carefully took her hand, and placed her palm on his heart, feeling the beating heat there.

His eyes, which had always been cold and indifferent, gained a scorching temperature, and he looked at her affectionately.

"Chasing your chance."
