CEO's Forced Love

After watching the film, it was dark outside.

Their hands are still firmly clasped. Ye Zhiqiu is reluctant to let go. Her right hand also holds Huo Zhongxiao's strong arm. Like other couples coming out of the cinema, she snuggles up to him and says to herself with a small face: "it's still early for dinner. What should we do now?"

"What do you want to do?" Huo Zhongxiao lowered his head slightly, and his eyes on her face implied drowning.

Ye Zhiqiu closed his arms and his cheeks were slightly red. He pretended to think seriously: "well, let me think about it... That's right!"

As if she thought of something, she took back her hand from his arm, bowed her head and took out the invitation letter of Lu Jinyan's painting from her bag. The corners of her lips were curved, a little flattery and a little treasure to Huo Zhongxiao.

"What?" Huo Zhongxiao took it and opened it. It looked like a child's graffiti.

Ye Zhiqiu took his arm again and approached him: "my cousin's birthday is coming soon. This is his invitation to my boyfriend's birthday party."

"Your cousin knows your boyfriend? Does he know your boyfriend's name?" a low male voice.

“……”

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned at first, then raised her head and found that his eyes were just looking at herself. She couldn't help being slightly embarrassed. She stretched out her hand to get back the inferior invitation and shouted, "ah, I'm kidding you. Return the paper to me quickly. It must have been secretly stuffed into my bag by a little boy!"

Huo Zhongxiao raised his hand and raised the "invitation letter" above his head, no matter how she couldn't reach it.

His voice sounded in her ear: "do you want to return the things you sent out?"

"It's not for you." Ye Zhiqiu's face burned red, his eyes didn't look at him, and his mouth said, "I'll take it out and show you!"

She doesn't know what's wrong with herself these days. Her face is so thin that she blushes easily.

Huo Zhongxiao looked down at her and said, "didn't you say it to your boyfriend?"

“……”

His deep voice also has a trace of deliberately depressed dumb. His breath brushed her cheek intentionally or unintentionally and stirred her heartstrings. He must be intentional. Every word and sentence seems to be forcing her to admit. Yes, she is outside under the banner that he is her boyfriend.

When ye Zhiqiu was embarrassed and speechless, he heard Huo Zhongxiao say, "let's go."

She saw that the "invitation letter" had been folded by him and put into her trouser pocket. After being taken two steps by him, she relaxed and said, "where are you going?"

"Buy your cousin a birthday present." his answer was straightforward.

Ye Zhiqiu was ashamed and wanted to stop him: "I'm really kidding you. Why are you serious? There's really no need to buy it."

"Well, that should be my birthday gift to him in advance." Huo Zhongxiao held her hand tightly and asked her, "what does your cousin usually like to play?"

"In fact, I really don't need to buy it..." she said in a low voice.

"This is basic politeness." Huo Zhongxiao suddenly touched her head and interrupted her with an action containing some subtle feelings: "since you have seen it, you can't pretend not to know. Besides, people even let you send the invitation."

The latter part of the sentence was said in a teasing tone.

Ye Zhiqiu was inexplicably moved in his heart. He tightened his powerful hand and tooted his small mouth: "you really have principles and are polite to little children."

"Who made him your cousin?"

The eight words he said as a joke were neither light nor heavy, but they were like eight small stones thrown into her calm heart lake, rippling in circles, and could not restore calm for a long time.

At this moment, ye Zhiqiu tasted the feeling of being held in the palm of his hand by someone he liked.

When she leaned against the corner of the children's toy counter and looked at Huo Zhongxiao's expression and carefully selected gifts for Lu Jinyan, her nose was a little sour and her heart felt like a warm stream. Only when you really care about a person, will you try to be good to others around her.

Once I was like this. I hollowed out my mind to please anyone related to Yan Yu.

She remembered what Huo Zhongxiao said when he rejected himself at Fengcheng railway station a year ago. What he said told her ruthlessly and realistically that their life circle was like two unrelated parallel lines, which could not intersect.

So is Huo Zhongxiao trying to integrate into her circle?
