Chapter 230 Waiting for him to open his heart

Huo Min saw that she was hesitant to speak.

She kept looking at him strangely.

He no longer looked angry as before.

Huo Min frowned slightly: "What's wrong? What do you want to say?"

Mu Yuan clutched his suit tightly, feeling uneasy: "I... want to go up first."

Huo Min glanced at the heavy rain outside and the cool breeze blowing on his face.

His dark eyes half closed: "Okay, go up first."

He put his arm around her shoulders through his suit and led her to the elevator.

She did not resist.

Discover this.

A deep meaning flashed across Huo Min's eyes silently.

Her attitude suddenly changed.

Why?

Just a few steps away from Zhao Keqiong's ward.

Huo Min turned Mu Yuan around and took her into the empty room next door.

She looked up blankly: "Aren't you going to mom's?"

"Sit down first."

Huo Min stared at her deeply and led her to sit on the sofa.

He didn't just sit down next to her.

But.

Half squatting in front of her.

Most of the natural chill in his body disappeared immediately.

Blunted to softness.

Mu Yuan's expression paused.

My heart was beating fast as I met his inquiring gaze and heard him whisper, "What's wrong? You look so bad?"

"I'm fine." Mu Yuan said in a clear voice.

"Nothing?" Huo Min raised his brows slightly, obviously not believing it.

The rain dimmed the room.

But it didn't prevent her from seeing his black pupils that seemed to be shining with starlight under his long black eyelashes.

There was also the lingering worry on that handsome face.

At the thought of it.

She was unaware of it.

How many times have you pushed him away?

And every time.

He would catch up quickly, chase her, and never give up.

This one-way persistence.

Perhaps only he could be so patient.

She only saw his dominance and strength.

But we ignore the essence of these emotions.

And all these bad emotions were caused by her.

Just think about it.

She felt as if her throat was being strangled and she had difficulty breathing.

"Are you feeling unwell? I'll go call a doctor." The more Huo Min looked at her, the more wrong her expression seemed.

His face darkened and he was about to stand up immediately.

only.

Just raised my upper body.

She pulled him back.

Huo Min stopped moving and squatted down again under her force.

He raised his eyes and gazed at her deeply, his voice subconsciously lowered: "Do you want some water? Or something else?"

Mu Yuan has a thousand words to say.

But when she met the gentle affection in his eyes like the moonlight.

She swallowed her words again.

He just shook his head slightly: "Aren't you going to the group? Why are you here?"

"Come back when you're done."

Huo Min's eyes were filled with thought.

Mu Yuan's attitude towards him.

It's really different.

It was early in the morning when he dragged me to have breakfast.

She still looked sullen.

“Knock knock.”

There was a knock on the door.

Mu Yuan's gaze immediately turned to the closed door.

Huo Min said calmly, "Come in."

As the door opened.

Han Zhu came in.

He was holding a shopping bag in his hand.

Han Zhu raised the shopping bag: "Mr. Huo, Madam, I got the shoes."

Mu Yuan was surprised: "What shoes?"

Huo Min: "Bring it here."

Wait until you see the new women's shoes taken out of the shopping bag.

Han Zhucai said, "Madam, these are the shoes I bought for you."

Mu Yuan was a little stunned, and her gaze moved from the new shoes to Huo Min's face.

Receiving her puzzled look.

Huo Min curled his lips and explained, "Your shoes are wet."

Huo Min covered her body and reached out to her feet.

Mu Yuan immediately pulled her legs back, her pretty face filled with nervousness: "What are you doing?"

Huo Min raised his dark eyes and said with a smile: "I'll change your shoes."

“No…” Mu Yuan subconsciously glanced at Han Zhu next to her. Even though he had consciously turned sideways, her face still felt hot: “No, I can do it myself!”

Huo Min disagreed: "What's there to be embarrassed about?"

But his hand was held tightly by Mu Yuan.

He raised his eyes, followed Mu Yuan's gaze, and looked at Han Zhu, and immediately said: "You go out first."

Han Zhu immediately said, "Okay, Mr. Huo," and walked quickly.

The door of the room is closed.

Huo Min's dark eyes cast upon Mu Yuan's cold face, which was now tinged with shame, and he raised the corner of his lips slightly: "You look much better now than before."

The teasing in his words was like gravel brushing against her earlobe, making her feel itchy.

"Change your shoes first. It's not good to wear wet shoes."

The tenderness in his voice made her whole body soften and she unconsciously released her strength.

Huo Min gently broke free from her hand.

Bow your head.

His warm fingertips touched her cold, slender ankle.

He frowned slightly: "If I wear it any longer, my feet will be frozen."

Socks were taken off.

Mu Yuan's face felt like it was burning, and she wanted to stop him again.

So grown up.

What's the big deal about asking someone to help you put on socks and change shoes?

"Huo Min, you don't have to do this. I can do it myself."

He didn't even look up.

Without stopping, he lifted her feet and placed them on his knees to make it easier to put on socks.

He said casually, "I made you angry this morning, and now I finally get a chance to show off. Give me a chance to atone for my sin."

Mu Yuan felt like an electric current was flowing through his heart.

She stared at his face with its high brow bones and sharp contours without blinking.

My heart feels like it's stuffed with a ball of cotton and is very blocked.

Huo Min neatly tied a bow on his new shoes.

Just then he raised his black eyes, and his auspicious phoenix eyes curved slightly: "Okay, you..."

The unfinished words at the end.

Disappeared in her sudden embrace.

Huo Min's eyes turned gloomy in an instant.

Raise your hands and hug her.

He whispered, "What happened? You haven't been quite right since a while ago."

Don't say you didn't give him a cold look.

Just this hug.

He didn't even dare to think about it.

"Huo Min." She called out in a muffled voice.

"Hmm?" The ending tone of his reply was full of infinite indulgence.

"You talk too much." She murmured softly.

Huo Min raised his brows slightly and couldn't help laughing: "You hugged me without any warning, and I couldn't even ask? Did I catch your infection? Why are you becoming more and more domineering?"

The words fell.

I heard her chuckle, "Well, blame you."

Huo Min's heart softened, and he raised his lip to admit his mistake: "Blame me."

She thinks he talks too much.

He simply shut up.

He just held her tighter and tighter.

I don't know why her attitude changed though.

But that's a good thing.

He had no reason to stop it.

He was also afraid that if he asked a few more questions, she would ignore him again.

That's not worth it.

The moment Mu Yuan let go of him.

Meeting his deep gaze, she struggled in her heart and came up with an excuse: "It can be said that..."

She kicked her toes upwards: "Even if it is, it's payment for the shoes."

Huo Min's lips curled up: "But there are two shoes, but only one hug."

Mu Yuan understood what he meant, but still wanted to laugh: "So?"

This time it's his turn.

He pulled her into his arms: "Give me another hug. They say good things come in pairs."

Mu Yuan paused.

She raised her slender arms and hugged his neck firmly.

Her almond-shaped eyes revealed melancholy.

He didn't want to say.

She could only wait for the day when he was willing to open his heart.

now.

I can only pretend that I know nothing.

About this hug.

In the end, Mu Yuan didn't explain.

Huo Min also tacitly did not ask any further questions.

Even though he was curious.

Why did she suddenly change her attitude?

Huo Min leaned casually against the door, his smiling black eyes fixed on Mu Yuan who was chatting and laughing with Zhao Keqiong.

It seems that he feels something in his heart.

Mu Yuan raised her eyes.

Falling into his endlessly gentle gaze.

Across the air.

Smile at him.

Zhao Keqiong's eyes wandered between them, and she coughed while suppressing a laugh. "I say, you two, exchanging glances in front of your mother? What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly so sticky?"
