After almost drowning, Wen Xiuan awakens to bullet comments, discovering that she is actually in a novel!
Her savior, it turns out, is a scheming "phoenix man" (a man who rises from p...
"A Nuan is so worried about me?"
Huo Jue's voice came, and Wen Xia Nuan glared at him angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, who is so worried about you? I just want you to suffer a loss, right?"
She muttered, her eyes fixed on Huo Jue's face: "Why don't you explain this matter clearly?"
"Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore!"
Huo Jue's gaze fell on Wen Xia Nuan. "Ah Nuan, it's actually nothing serious. Li Mei said I did so well in the exam and wanted to hold a banquet for me to liven things up!"
"Did the sun rise from the west?"
Wen Xia Nuan's gaze fell on Huo Jue.
Huo Jue couldn't help but sneer: "I knew you would say that."
Wen Xia Nuan's expression also fell on Huo Jue: "What exactly does Li Mei want to do? Judging from her plan, is she planning to tamper with your exam?"
When Huo Jue heard Wen Xia Nuan's words, he was stunned. He had never thought about this before. Looking at Wen Xia Nuan at this moment, Huo Jue's expression suddenly became nervous.
"Ajue, what I said can't be true, right?"
Wen Xia Nuan paused when she said this. She looked at Huo Jue with a tense expression. She felt that she had found the truth in some of his words.
Huo Jue's eyes also fell on Wen Xia Nuan. He thought for a moment before saying, "Ah Nuan, do you want to tell me something else now?"
His gaze fell on Wen Xia Nuan, who also looked at Huo Jue: "Huo Jue, I always feel that you should be more careful."
She looked at the man seriously, thought for a moment and said, "If I reject Li Mei, she will definitely not let it go so easily."
Wen Xia Nuan's expression was tense, and Huo Jue also realized what she meant. He thought for a moment and then said, "Li Mei probably still hates me. Ah Nuan, do you think it's wrong for me to do this?"
It’s really hard to say what Wen Xia Nuan is like.
After all, Li Mei's plan is obvious.
Now that Huo Jue had refused, she remained silent for a long time before speaking: "Ajue, your refusal hasn't caused any substantial harm. And you should understand that even if you refuse this matter, Li Mei will probably cause something else."
Huo Jue remained silent for a long time after hearing her voice. Finally, he sighed and said, "Ah Nuan, I can't hide from you now, and I can't leave you either. What do you think I should do?"
He looked at Wen Xia Nuan nervously, and Wen Xia Nuan really couldn't say anything else for a while.
"We can either meet the enemy with our own troops or flood the water with our own land."
This is the most practical way.
Huo Jue's gaze also fell on Wen Xia Nuan. He spoke with a smile, but Wen Xia Nuan remained silent.
Wen Xia Nuan looked at Huo Jue with understanding: "All you can do now is wait."
Huo Jue was stunned for a moment, then he sighed with a smile, "If I had known it would be so troublesome, I would have asked grandma to take care of it."
When he heard this, Wen Xia Nuan glanced at him a few times: "To be frank, this is not your fault, Jue, there is no need to belittle yourself."
Huo Jue was startled by Wen Xia Nuan's words. He looked at Wen Xia Nuan and said, "Then can we think about what to do first?"
"Huo Jue, Huo Jue!"
The shouting coming from outside the house made Wen Xia Nuan and Huo Jue look at each other.
Huo Jue's gaze fell on Wen Xia Nuan: "The voice sounds like Li Mei's."
As he spoke, Wen Xia Nuan nodded: "It does sound like Li Mei's voice, but I don't know why she's here now?"
As she spoke, she walked out, her eyes falling on Li Mei, and asked doubtfully, "Aunt, what's the matter with you coming to see Huo Jue now?"
Li Mei's eyes were filled with curiosity. "Wen Zhiqing, I do have something to talk to him about. Why don't you call her out first?"
When her voice came, Huo Jue also came out at this time, his eyes fell on Li Mei: "Aunt, what are you calling me for?"
"Huo Jue, I heard from your grandma that you rejected my proposal. Do you think it would be nice if I could host a few banquets for you to make it lively?"
Her puzzled gaze fell on Huo Jue.
Huo Jue just smiled and said nothing, but then he said, "Aunt, there's no need for this. After all, you're the one spending the money, and I don't want to let you spend too much."
He spoke with a smile. When Li Mei heard this, her eyes fell on Huo Jue: "Ajue, you said I was the one who took the money, so what do you have to worry about?"
Huo Jue was stunned. Li Mei looked at him, and she was indeed worried in her heart: "You don't even want me to spend money now?"
Li Mei looked at Huo Jue and suddenly apologized guiltily, "Huo Jue, can you just treat this as my apology as your aunt?"
Huo Jue took her serious words in. After a moment's reflection, he said, "Aunt, I've heard your apology. I completely forgive you for this. However, I don't need your help with something else."
He spoke seriously, and Li Mei was stunned for a moment: "Ajue, are you saying that I shouldn't do this now?"
She looked at Huo Jue with a half-smile, and Huo Jue curled his lips: "It's not because of you, but I don't want to make a fuss right now."
"Aunt, it's better to keep these things low-key."
His smiling eyes fell on Li Mei. Li Mei could also sense Huo Jue's persistence. She curled her lips stiffly, and when her eyes fell on Huo Jue, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's do as you say."
Li Mei finally gave up at this moment. Huo Jue's smiling eyes fell on her. There was nothing else to say at this moment.
"Aunt, if you have nothing to do now, please go back first."
Li Mei originally wanted to say something more.
But now seeing Huo Jue like this, she swallowed all her words back.
She turned and left at this moment.
Wen Xia Nuan's eyes fell on Huo Jue, and she couldn't help laughing out loud: "Huo Jue, what are you thinking now?"
She looked at Huo Jue in front of her. Huo Jue thought for a moment and said, "Since I have already rejected her, if she comes to me again, I will not be able to get involved. There is no need to give her any face anymore."
Wen Xia Nuan's smiling eyes fell on Huo Jue: "This is the first time I've seen you and Li Mei speak out your words so firmly. Huo Jue, you surprised me a little."
Huo Jue also laughed. Looking at Wen Xia Nuan, he said seriously, "That's because I don't want to endure it anymore."
