Chasing after marriage and lock love: sweet little sweet wife

Chapter 99

Huo Sijue is such a shrewd person, how can he not know what his mother's plan is, he glanced at her lightly, his expression unchanged, and replied: "Miss Lu's intelligence is well known in the upper class of Ning City. It must be She usually has many suitors behind her, and it is indeed their blessing to be lucky enough to marry her."

When Lu Manxi heard this, the smile on her face froze slightly.

What he said completely excluded himself.

It is a blessing for others to marry her, why didn't he marry her?
With so many suitors behind her, why isn't he the only one?
The two elders of the Huo family and the two elders of the Lu family also heard the meaning of Huo Sijue's words, and their expressions changed slightly.

In order to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere, Yan Ruyi quickly sneered and said, "Oh, this kid Manxi is too good, our Sijue would not be so lucky if he wanted to, let's not talk about it, come, eat, the food is cold."

With Yan Ruyi's greeting, the dinner began.

Lu Cangxiong and Huo Yuntian quickly talked about business matters, while Huo Sijue listened and gave some opinions from time to time.

Lu Manxi was at the side, unable to swallow.

Seeing the complaint, Yan Ru hurriedly picked up some food for her, and said, "Manxi, come on, eat more, you're too skinny, so you can't do this."

Lu Manxi forced a smile, but couldn't help looking at Huo Sijue.

The man never looked at her from the beginning to the end, but when facing the work, his expression was more focused than anything else, and it was also so focused that she was attracted to her whole heart uncontrollably.

Shen Suyin and Yan Ruyi saw everything in their eyes, and they became more determined to bring them together.

During the dinner, Lu Manxi went to the bathroom.

When passing by the hall, she unexpectedly saw Mu Wanzhi.

As soon as Lu Manxi saw her, her expression changed, and her original soft expression became extremely gloomy.

This lingering woman!
Why do I meet him everywhere?
When she thought of what Huo Sijue said just now in the box, she felt very blocked.

At this time, Mu Wanzhi suddenly got up from her seat and walked in this direction.

Lu Manxi was startled, and quickly hid behind a potted plant.

Mu Wanzhi didn't notice her, and went directly to the bathroom. After finishing, she returned to the restaurant to meet Ye Xiangyi.

When Lu Manxi heard Mu Wanzhi say that she was leaving at eight o'clock, she immediately made up her mind, and a smug smile rose from the corner of her mouth.

She returned to the box as if nothing had happened. Seeing her coming back, Shen's mother couldn't help asking, "Why did you go so long?"

Lu Manxi smiled and said, "It's nothing, I met a classmate outside just now, and we chatted for a while."

"So it's like this. Seeing that you didn't eat much at night, hurry up and eat more." Shen's mother urged, not forgetting to put vegetables in the baby daughter's bowl.

Lu Manxi nodded, picked up the chopsticks and gave Huo Sijue a chopstick, "Sijue, eat more."

Huo Sijue glanced at her and nodded, but he never touched the food she picked up.

Lu Manxi saw it in his eyes, and felt unspeakable sadness in his heart, but in the end he endured it.

In a blink of an eye, it was past seven o'clock, and the few people had almost finished eating. Lu Manxi suggested, "Uncle Huo, Aunt Huo, let's go to the teahouse for a drink. A friend of mine just opened a teahouse nearby. The environment there is good, and it's rare to have There is a chance to meet up, shall we go together?"

Huo Yuntian and Yan Ruyi naturally did not refuse: "Okay, just drink some tea to digest."

Huo Sijue looked at the time and said, "I won't go, I still have something to do."

He was thinking of Mu Wanzhi in his heart, and he hadn't contacted her since tonight, and he didn't know if she had eaten yet.

As soon as Yan Ruyi heard it, she knew what he wanted to do, and immediately grabbed his hand and said, "You child, why are you so ignorant, it's rare to get together with Uncle Lu and the others, why did you leave? The company's business can't be left for tomorrow doing?"

"mom……"

Huo Sijue lowered his voice, his expression a little displeased.

After seeing Lu Manxi, she felt a little lost, but she still held Yan Ruyi's hand and said, "Auntie, it's okay, since Si Jue is so busy, don't force him, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future. Let's go. "

Yan Ruyi wanted to say something, but Lu Manxi had already dragged her out of the box, so she had no choice but to let it go.

A group of six people left the restaurant. Coincidentally, Mu Wanzhi and Ye Xiangyi were also preparing to check out and leave.

When he was about to reach the door, Mu Wanzhi suddenly saw the familiar figure at the door.

She was a little surprised at first.

It seems that he did not expect that Huo Sijue also came to this restaurant for dinner.

She quickly pulled Ye Xiangyi and said: "What a coincidence, Xiangyi, didn't you always want to see who I married, go, I will take you there to meet now."

"Huh? He's here too? Where is it?"

Ye Xiangyi suddenly became interested.

Mu Wanzhi smiled and stretched out her hand, pointing outward, "Here, it's right there..."

Before she finished speaking, all her voice was stuck in her throat.

At the entrance of the restaurant, there was a woman beside the man.

She recognized that woman, it was the Lu Manxi she saw when she went to the reception last time!
I saw Lu Manxi talking to Huo Sijue with a bright smile, but she couldn't see Huo Sijue's expression, so it was hard to imagine what kind of expression he responded with.

Then she saw Lu Manxi accidentally fell down, and he helped her up.

Lu Manxi's whole body was almost nestled in his arms...

Her smile froze in an instant, and her hands slowly dropped, with an indescribably dazed expression on her face.

Why……

Why does the picture in front of her look so dazzling to her?
Why is her chest so uncomfortable?It's like blocking a ball of fermented dough, making it difficult for her to breathe?
She froze there for a moment.

Ye Xiangyi, who was next to him, looked left and right, but didn't see the person she was talking about, so he couldn't help but asked in doubt, "Which one is it? Are you talking about it... eh? Wanzhi, what's wrong with you?"

Mu Wanzhi was called back to her senses, and hurriedly said: "No...it's nothing...I misread it, it wasn't him. Let's go."

After finishing speaking, she pulled Ye Xiangyi and left through the door in the other direction.

……

At this time, the entrance of the restaurant.

After Huo Sijue helped Lu Manxi, he immediately let her go and asked in a flat voice, "Are you all right?"

"It's okay, thank you just now."

Lu Manxi smiled subtly, but stared at the direction Mu Wanzhi was leaving, secretly proud.

Just now, she had seen all of Mu Wanzhi's actions, so she deliberately acted out, pretending to be familiar with Huo Sijue, and then deliberately fell down and fell into his arms.

She clearly saw the woman's froze expression suddenly, and the back that left without looking back...

She achieved her goal.

As long as it can cause a misunderstanding between the two, then she has a chance.

As for Lu Manxi's flipping behavior, Huo Sijue felt rather baffled, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and left in a hurry.
