Chapter 71
Huo Qiyuan straightened his clothes, lifted his robes lightly, and sat on the chair gracefully.

Two eyes looked at Lin Xiaorou with a half-smile.

Lin Xiaorou was very stressed by those eyes, as if an invisible hand drove away the air around her, making her very depressed and uncomfortable.

"It's nothing but a nightmare, but I didn't sleep late on purpose, it's just that I went to bed too late yesterday and woke up too early today, so I couldn't help it for a while, I promise I will never make such a mistake again in the future."

Lin Xiaorou lowered her head and apologized, for fear that this local rich man would kick her out if she was unhappy, after all, no matter how valuable she is, she must be appreciated by others!
"Lin Xiaorou, I definitely don't allow this laziness to sleep, but I don't care if it's the first time I miss you, you come here first, I have something to say to you."

Huo Qiyuan said in a calm tone, with a look of seriousness between his eyebrows and eyes, Lin Xiaorou was taken aback for a moment, then smiled foolishly and said: "No need, it's more comfortable for me to stand?"

"Is that so? Then you just stand!"

The smile on Lin Xiaorou's face froze for an instant, and she said awkwardly, "Stand, stand, and hear clearly."

"Lin Xiaorou, do you know who I am?"

"I know, you are the owner of our restaurant."

Huo Qiyuan shook his head, a look of searching flashed in his eyes: "I'm talking about another identity."

Lin Xiaorou was taken aback, what other identity?Is he
Seeing the shock and surprise flashing in her eyes, Huo Qiyuan smiled helplessly: "Don't think in a mess, don't you think my face is familiar, just as I also feel that I have met you somewhere?"

After he reminded, Lin Xiaorou suddenly realized, and said with a chuckle: "Thinking about it, it looks a little familiar. It seems that I have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it at the moment. Why don't you give me some hints, boss?"

"My surname is Huo, from Jiangcheng, is that enough?"

Lin Xiaorou rolled her eyes and asked uncertainly, "Are you a relative of the Huo family in Jiangcheng?"

Huo Qiyuan shook his head: "It can be closer."

"Are you a close relative of the Huo family?"

Hey, Huo Qiyuan has been deeply impressed by Lin Xiaorou's IQ, he sighed and said bluntly: "Do you know Huo Qihan?"

Lin Xiaorou's heart skipped a beat when she heard the name, and she didn't know what the words meant, and seeing Huo Qiyuan's facial features seemed somewhat similar to Huo Qihan, she couldn't help but take a few steps back, a flash of fear flashed in her eyes.

"Who the hell are you? What's your relationship with Huo Qihan?"

Huo Qiyuan looked at her inexplicably, it seemed appropriate for him to ask this question.

"Huo Qihan is my younger brother, we are half-brothers."

With a bang, Lin Xiaorou felt as if struck by lightning. Is there anything more bloody than this?

Just now I dreamed that Huo Qihan came to catch her, and when I opened my eyes, he didn't come, but his brother came.

"Big brother, oh no, boss, that me"

"What do you want to say?" Huo Qiyuan looked at Lin Xiaorou who was hesitating, his expression was really wonderful, this girl was too good at hiding, every mood was written on her face.

But what is certain is that she didn't show the slightest bit of happiness after hearing the news, but was very scared, which showed that Han'er was probably nothing to her.

Otherwise, he should at least ask about Han'er's recent situation. He felt more disgusted in his heart, but there was still a faint smile on his face.

"It's nothing, I just want to say that it's no wonder Boss Huo is so handsome and suave. He's the eldest son of the Huo family." Lin Xiaorou said coyly, but her confidence was obviously lacking, and her voice became lower and lower.

"Lin Xiaorou, I don't like to listen to flattery. I have something to talk to you about today, but I don't want to be heard by others, so please sit down and have a close conversation with me."

How dare the boss refuse to follow his words, but this chair is really not easy to sit on. Lin Xiaorou sat on the chair with extreme entanglement. The warm wind had also become hot and dry, making her sweat and faint.

She smirked and asked flatteringly, "Boss, don't you want me to go home?"

"I'm not going to let you go home, otherwise I won't let Uncle Fu agree to your request, and are you sure you can go back to Jiangcheng, your home?"

Lin Xiaorou froze for a moment, then shook her head stiffly.

"Actually, it's not impossible to go back to Jiangcheng, but it's in the limelight right now, so I have to wrong you. When it comes to this, I have to talk about Han'er. This kid has been a naughty and willful master since he was a child. Shi, Han'er's mother passed away early, which caused him to be sensitive and unintentional. You can see if he is romantic, but it's just his illusion. Only I know how persistent this child is about life and feelings, even obsessive. Some naive and simple."

Speaking of this, Huo Qiyuan glanced at Lin Xiaorou, and found that she was silent and her eyes were as motionless as a pool of still water.

"Originally, my father already had a thorough plan for Han'er, planning to let him marry the well-matched Nangong Jing in a little while, but unfortunately my father still doesn't know that Cheng Yaojin like you was killed halfway through, He frantically chartered a cruise ship, and even angrily asked Nangong Jing to divorce, presumably it was all because of you?"

Unknowingly, Lin Xiaorou bit her lower lip with her teeth. She looked up at Huo Qiyuan: "Actually, I don't need him to do this for me. I told him that Nangong Jing is the best match for him."

"Yeah, but you understand, he doesn't understand, you have seen the situation clearly and left indifferently, but my stupid brother is still waiting in place, do you know how many whips he received from my father for refusing to marry Nangong Jing? ? Those pains are beyond what you can imagine, let alone what you can bear!"

Silence, dead silence.

Lin Xiaorou looked at him, and that sentence echoed in her heart for a long time.

"How is he now?"

"That day in the alley at the gate of the city, he was drenched by rain and his wound became inflamed. He has been unconscious for several days and is still a little confused. We have already invited the best doctor to treat his injury, and he should recover soon. "

Lin Xiaorou took a deep breath silently, and said after a long time: "Then do you want me to leave as soon as possible, the farther away the better?"

"No, you don't need to leave. I need your medicated diet. The restaurants and restaurants are already saturated. Even if there are special dishes, it is difficult to maintain them for a long time. Your medicated diet is exactly the new opportunity I need. What you have to do now is Make a good medicinal meal, and just keep indifferent when you meet my brother in the future, I believe he will understand and let go, because sometimes facing is far more effective than escaping!"

Lin Xiaorou raised her head, and the light just covered her pure white forehead with a soft light.

She stood up, deliberately kept some distance from Huo Qiyuan, and said in a calm tone: "I understand what you said, and I know what to do, but if your brother really doesn't love that Nangong Jing, I also hope you Don't force her, I think Jiangcheng should have other women besides Nangong Jing who are worthy of him, it's better to let him choose again, just as you said Huo Qihan is a simple person, so he needs more A true relationship, not everything and the future imposed on him!"

Huo Qiyuan looked at Lin Xiaorou meaningfully without saying a word, this girl seemed to be much more interesting than he imagined!
If an ordinary woman heard his insinuating warnings, she might accept them with trepidation, but she still went forward and reminded him not to overdo it.

When Lin Xiaorou returned to the kitchen, Uncle Fu was waiting for her. When he saw her, he came over and asked the boss what he was talking about with her in private.

I thought that women were the main body of gossip, but I didn't expect gossip to be regardless of age and gender.

"Didn't say anything!" Lin Xiaorou didn't want to talk now, Uncle Fu felt it was even more strange, obviously just now the boss deliberately dismissed him, his eyes seemed to contain a lot of words.

What's more, how could the two of them not talk in the yard for so long.

It was already his fault to see her lazily in the yard, how could he not be nervous!

"Don't worry, Uncle Fu. The boss didn't say anything bad about you. He just asked me about some medicinal food and asked me not to be lazy next time. There's really nothing else to do!"

After getting her affirmative answer, Uncle Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and blamed him: "You, it's a coincidence that you just happened to be lazy when the boss came, so you must be more careful next time."

After dealing with Uncle Fu, all the people in the kitchen are waiting to look at her in admiration!How could he come back safe and sound after being lazy under the nose of the boss?It wasn't that the boss's brain was flooded for a while, or that Lin Xiaorou was so lucky that at least he had to deduct some wages or something.

"Xiao Rou, what's wrong with you, it seems that your face is not quite right?"

Wang Lan saw Lin Xiaorou's expression was different, so she hurried over and asked.

"It's okay, Aunt Wang." Although Lin Xiaorou was smiling, but the smile was forced, which made Wang Lan even more worried and more curious about what the boss said to Lin Xiaorou, which made her so dazed.

The business of the restaurant is still going well, everyone is busy with their own things before they can say a few words, Lin Xiaorou just helps them out when she has nothing to do, the head chef never speaks a word, neither smiles nor angry, seems to be thinking about it .

Lin Xiaorou didn't care about him, as long as she did her own thing well.

The busy day passed quickly, and as the last diner left, Lin Xiaorou helped Wang Lan clean the kitchen together.

Several cooks had already gone back, and the head chef had also left, and the huge kitchen was suddenly empty.

The only sound left was the clinking of pots and pans in the sink.

"Aunt Wang, go back, I'll wash these dishes."

"No need, let me come, but you look bad and go to rest earlier."

"It's okay, Lele will be anxious if you go back late, by the way, don't forget to bring that bowl of yogurt to Lele."

Lin Xiaorou took out the bowl of yogurt that Wang Lan had put away from the cabinet, and suddenly found that the yogurt had spoiled after being left for too long.

Immediately my heart felt sour, and I murmured in a low voice: "Didn't you say that time is the best thing? But why does it still change its quality?"

"It's okay, but a bowl of yogurt, but Xiao Rou, you'd better go back quickly! Isn't your family worried at this late hour?"
