"If the factory director has nothing else to do, I'll take my partner and leave first!" Xu Ying said.
Director Sun's face turned pale, he looked at Xiao Xu with disdain and said, "You are an excellent girl, but you must not be deceived by appearances.
Go back, if anyone dares to bully you, tell me and I will punish him for you."
As he said this, Director Sun glared at Huo Chen fiercely.
Secretary Zhang couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Director, Minister Xu is not your daughter, why are you so worried?"
Director Sun rolled his eyes at him and said, "Xiao Xu is my subordinate, so I am concerned about his marriage.
This girl is pure-minded and kind-hearted. She has made so many selfless contributions to our factory. Can you bear to see her being hurt by a man?"
Secretary Zhang's mouth twitched. Minister Xu has a simple mind, but there are probably no simple people in the world.
But he didn’t dare to say it, so he could only nod and say, “Director, you are right, such a good person like Minister Xiao Xu cannot be hurt by a man.
But I think the man just now is well-dressed and doesn't look dishonest."
Director Sun snorted coldly. He couldn't see it.
He just couldn't accept it in his heart. How could this boy be abducted by this girl so quickly?
After Xu Ying and Huo Chen left the factory, they went straight to the department store.
The department store has a wide variety of items, and Huo Chen bought everything he needed according to Grandma Huo's instructions.
Afterwards, he walked towards the women's clothing area. Although he gave all his earnings to Xu Ying, he still had some pocket money.
"I need to buy some new clothes to wear tomorrow!"
As soon as the two of them walked into the women's clothing area, the salesperson who was originally chatting with Xu Ying instantly became enthusiastic when she saw her: "Designer Xu, are you buying clothes with your partner?"
The person who was speaking looked at his colleague making faces and muttered quietly, "Designer Xu's boyfriend is so handsome, he looks like a big star."
"Designer Xiao Xu is also good-looking, even prettier than famous stars. The two of them look really good together."
Although the two spoke in low voices, Huo Chen had good hearing and naturally heard their conversation clearly. His dark eyes were full of joy.
"Well, my partner and I are just going to take a look, you guys just go do whatever you need to do." Xu Ying said with a smile.
Xiao Xu is always meticulous in her design work. Although she looks like a young girl, she is very mature.
Now this smile is as bright as spring flowers, which makes people fall into it involuntarily.
One of the salesmen was so excited: "Xiao Xu is not only an excellent designer, but also looks good when he smiles!"
"Designer Xu, what kind of clothes do you want to see?" The salesperson's face was full of curiosity. All the clothes here were designed by Designer Xu, and each one was very beautiful.
Xu Ying waved at Huo Chen and pointed at the red quilted jacket and skirt hanging next to her: "What do you think of this? It will definitely be festive if you wear it tomorrow."
Huo Chen nodded. As long as she likes it, that's good.
"Then let's go with that dress. Just get her the size she wants."
As soon as Huo Chen said this, the saleswoman next to him was full of joking. This was too thoughtful. She even knew the size of the clothes.
Xu Ying was also shocked, and quietly pulled Huo Chen: "How do you know I wear this size?"
Huo Chen raised his eyebrows, his eyes turning slightly: "I knew it when I hugged you before."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Ying's pretty face became solemn, a trace of anger and shame flashed across her eyes, and a faint blush appeared on her face. She said angrily: "Huo Chen~"
Huo Chen's eyes flickered, and he touched the tip of his nose embarrassedly: "I'm just telling the truth."
Xu Ying took the clothes handed to her by the salesperson, and Huo Chen quickly paid for it.
Holding the clothes, Xu Ying's face turned red. She glared at Huo Chen and quickly went downstairs.
"Hiss~" Xu Ying ran too fast and bumped head-on into someone who was walking towards her.
Zhang Zhiguo covered his shoulder and grimaced, he gasped in pain and was about to get angry, but when he saw who was coming, the corners of his mouth instantly rose.
Every time we meet, you always give me a big surprise and crawl into my arms. "
Huo Chen, who was chasing after them, just heard these words. He stretched out his slender fingers and pulled Xu Ying into his arms. He looked at Zhang Zhiguo with hostility in his eyes.
Xu Ying touched her head and her face changed due to the pain: "What kind of fate is this? It's just that enemies meet on a narrow road and they are specifically designed to jinx me."
When Zhang Zhiguo heard this, his face instantly became somewhat embarrassed.
"Xu Ying, we have had dinner together after all, and it really hurts my heart to say that."
"Comrade, please be careful with your words. If you say something disrespectful to my partner, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhang Zhiguo glanced at Huo Chen with disdain on his face: "What did I say? Besides, are you married?
Even if I have feelings for her, what can you do about it?"
Huo Chen was completely furious. Although his face was usually stern and unkind, his current expression made people feel scared.
Those eyes emitted a terrifying light, and he raised his fist and punched towards Zhang Zhiguo.
Although Zhang Zhiguo could feel the murderous aura coming from the opposite side, he was slow to react and was punched in the face by Huo Chen.
In an instant, his face swelled up like a pig's head.
Xu Ying looked at Zhang Zhiguo's funny appearance and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Zhang Zhiguo instantly became angry and started fighting with Huo Chen.
After all, he was just a rich kid who had just joined the army, so he didn't have any real injuries and was beaten all over by Huo Chen in just a few moves. On the other hand, Huo Chen didn't have any changes except that his clothes were a little messy.
"Are you okay?" Xu Ying asked Huo Chen with concern.
Huo Chen raised the corner of his mouth, wiped the corner of his mouth gently, and looked at Zhang Zhiguo, his eyes full of provocation.
Men know other men best, and it is obvious that this man has bad intentions towards Yingying.
He actually dared to do it in front of him. When Huo Chen thought of this, he wanted to kick Zhang Zhiguo again.
Xu Ying quickly grabbed Huo Chen and hurried out of the department store.
"You are too reckless. What if he reports it to the police?"
"It's okay. Apart from the wound on my face, there's no visible wound anywhere else. Besides, he did it, and my face is the proof of it." Huo Chen said, pointing to the corner of his mouth.
If he hadn't let that guy hurt him on purpose, that guy wouldn't have been able to touch him at all.
Even so, Xu Ying still felt a little sorry for him.
She touched the corner of his mouth lightly with her fingertips and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Huo Chen shook his head, reached into his pocket, and took out a square box.
"For you."
Xu Ying looked at the exquisite gift box, and a trace of shock flashed in her eyes. Could it be a ring? She opened the box with full expectation, but who knew it was a lady's watch.
Looking at the watch, Xu Ying glanced at Huo Chen with some resentment.
"What's wrong? You don't like it?" Huo Chen asked. It took him a long time to choose this watch.
It’s small and pretty, and the color is pretty, and it will definitely look great on her fair wrist.
Xu Ying shook her head, her lips curved: "I like it very much, thank you."
Huo Chen was excited when he heard this: "Then I'll help you bring it."
Xu Ying stretched out her delicate and fair hand, and Huo Chen held her small hand carefully, not daring to use any strength for fear of hurting her.
