Chapter 152 Throwing herself into his arms early in the morning

Xia Mi hummed meaningfully, with a long tail tone, "Yes, yes, between you and Shen Zhihui, I will definitely choose you."

Huo Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly, and a strange emotion blossomed in his eyes.

"You really chose it?"

Xia Mi paused, "Didn't you ask me to pick it?"

Huo Jingchen was speechless. When did he let her choose?

After dinner, Xia Mi boiled a pot of hot water to soak her feet.

It is already late autumn and winter will come soon. The sea breeze is getting stronger day by day, so she can only wear a hat when going out every day.

I have to soak my feet every night so that I can sleep warmly.

Huo Jingchen was urged by Xia Mi to lie down on the bed early and act as a bed warmer.

When Xia Mi lifted the quilt and crawled in, her cold skin touched the warm quilt.

She quickly moved her feet closer to the man's thighs, and sure enough, they were very warm.

Huo Jingchen took a deep breath and hissed.

"Didn't you just finish soaking your feet? How come they're so cold in less than half an hour?"

Xia Mi wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, leaving only her head exposed. She kept leaning against Huo Jingchen, "I don't know either."

"Thank goodness I have you." She smiled at Huo Jingchen and leaned on his shoulder.

She looked at the warm yellow light and felt a surge of happiness in her heart, a feeling she had never experienced in her previous life.

After lying down for a while, Xia Mi gradually felt something was wrong. The person next to her was restless, especially those hands, which were setting fires everywhere.

"What?"

"Make revolution."

Upon hearing this, Xia Mi knew what he was going to do. Her whole body went into alert mode, feeling a little reluctant.

“It’s too cold.”

"I'll get warm as I do this, so isn't this a form of exercise?"

Xia Mi widened her eyes. Is it possible to say this out loud?

The lights began to flicker, indicating that a power outage was about to occur. Xia Mi's voice was sealed into the darkness along with the flickering lights.

The next day, Xia Mi was woken up by Huo Jingchen.

When she opened her eyes, she was blinded by the glaring light. She subconsciously closed her eyes and waited for several seconds before opening them again.

"I brought breakfast back. Get up and eat. After you finish eating, I'll take you to the dock to catch the boat."

Xia Mi was half asleep and blinked her eyes. When she gradually regained consciousness, she threw off the quilt and got out of bed.

The moment her feet touched the ground, a short pain like an electric shock spread from the soles of her feet to her calves. Xia Mi lost her balance and fell forward suddenly.

Huo Jingchen heard the noise, turned around and hugged the person tightly in his arms.

"Why did you throw yourself at me so early in the morning?"

The pain came and went quickly. Xia Mi's foot had recovered. She stood up straight and glared at Huo Jingchen who was teasing her.

"Throw yourself into my arms? It looks like you haven't woken up yet."

Huo Jingchen was about to go out, but after hearing what Xia Mi said, he stopped where he was, with a playful smile on his face.

He asked in a low voice and hummed, "Who was begging me last night?"

Huo Jingchen asked knowingly, causing Xia Mi's face to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Don't force me to wear a cotton jacket and sleep with you in the future!" Xia Mi said in a serious tone with a stern face.

"I'm not another man. It takes less than one-tenth of the time it takes me to change a few clothes."

"That's enough, it's so early in the morning." Xia Mi was quite helpless, turning around and muttering, "It's almost winter, not spring, what's wrong with Huo Jingchen?"

Xia Mi changed her clothes, ate her meal, put on a hat, and then sat on the back of the bicycle.

Under her coercion, Huo Jingchen had no choice but to put on a pair of pink woolen gloves, which did not suit his body shape.

Before getting in the car, Huo Jingchen decided to take off the radio when he arrived at the dock.

When he rode his bike to the dock, he saw Shen Zhihui standing there from a distance. He refused to get on the boat even though there was one. Huo Jingchen pedaled all the way to him.

"Comrade Shen, long time no see."

Shen Zhihui heard an unfamiliar male voice, looked in the direction of the sound, and met Huo Jingchen's eyes.

"Captain Huo, long time no see." Shen Zhihui nodded as a greeting, and his attention was attracted by Huo Jingchen's gloves.

But it was just a glance, and I didn't care after that.

"Teacher Xia."

Xia Mi jumped out of the car, her nose tip was red from the cold wind, and she even had hot breath when she spoke.

"Good morning, Comrade Shen. Have you had breakfast?"

Shen Zhihui nodded, "I have eaten. I stayed at Zhang Zijie's house for one night yesterday. Grandma Liang got up early in the morning and cooked porridge for me."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"I didn't ask you where you live or what you eat." Huo Jingchen suddenly said.

Shen Zhihui was embarrassed for a second, then said sincerely, "I don't have many friends here. All my previous friends have gone back to Haicheng."

"Captain Huo, don't get me wrong. I treat Teacher Xia as a friend, nothing more."

"Comrade Shen, don't worry. I didn't misunderstand you. I just say what I think. My words may sound a little harsh."

Huo Jingchen smiled, his eyes calm, "Besides, I still have confidence."

The corner of Shen Zhihui's mouth twitched. Is this a bit harsh? It's so direct, maybe a little harsh.

"That's good. It seems I was overthinking it." Shen Zhihui's smile froze.

At this time, the captain began to shout that the boat was about to set sail, which broke the awkward and strange atmosphere.

Huo Jingchen took off his gloves and stuffed them into Xia Mi's palm, "Here you go."

Xia Mi lowered her eyes and looked at the gloves that were stretched to size. She nodded without disdain and said, "You should go back soon. The seaside is windy."

Huo Jingchen insisted on watching Xia Mi get on board.

After getting on the boat, Shen Zhihui saw that there were still a lot of seats left in the last row. When he saw Xia Mi sitting by the side, he subconsciously wanted to lean towards that side.

Thinking of Huo Jingchen just now, Shen Zhihui hurriedly stopped, turned a corner, and sat in the seat in front of Xia Mi.

"Teacher Xia, I saw a report in the newspaper that the first self-employed business operator has appeared in Wencheng. Are you interested in working with me?"

Ever since she met Xia Mi again when she returned to Qingcheng, she has been willing to listen to so many things.

Shen Zhihui had a hunch that Xia Mi also wanted to do business, but due to the wind direction and the fact that she was a military family member, there were too many things that constrained her and she had to consider many factors.

But now that it is about to be legalized, Shen Zhihui wants to give it a try.

He met a lot of people in Qingcheng, but for some reason, he didn't trust them much.

Instead, he trusted Xia Mi. He felt that it was Xia Mi who pointed him in the right direction when he was confused, and he really walked this path.

So I will have more trust in Xia Mi.

Xia Mi was surprised. She originally wanted to recruit Shen Zhihui, but unexpectedly, the other side had their eyes on her.

But it's the same.

"What do you want to do? Rent a store and sell braised food?"

Xia Mi didn't rush to reject Shen Zhihui. He stood in the cold wind waiting for her for so long, he must have something to say.

"I haven't made a plan yet, but I don't want to touch food for now. I want to open a shop to repair home appliances."

"Can you repair household appliances?"

This made Xia Mi curious. Shen Zhihui had been on Zhuifeng Island before, and he was a top student before going to Zhuifeng Island. How did he learn how to repair home appliances?
