Chapter 143 Must Leave
After the sacrifice, the phone in Jian Mo's pocket vibrated. In fact, it had vibrated many times. In such an atmosphere, she could only ignore it.
Huo Qichen noticed something was wrong with her, and taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her, he told the servants to take her away, "Can you go alone?"
Jian Mo nodded. Didn't he say it was okay even if he said no?
After walking out of this door, I can finally check my phone.
All of them came from Zhou Liangqi, who called back: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
The voice on the other end was very deep, "You and Huo Qichen returned to the Huo family?"
Jian Mo was a little surprised. "You are really well-informed. Did you install surveillance cameras on me?"
The man on the other end didn't seem to be in the mood to joke with her. He commanded, "You must leave that place today. I'm serious."
It was so irrational that Jian Mo couldn't believe it. "Zhou Liangqi, why?"
In fact, Huo Qichen had already promised her today that he would leave after the sacrifice and go home to have a reunion dinner with his grandfather.
But why did Zhou Liangqi make such remarks?
Zhou Liangqi didn't explain. "Just listen to me, Jian Mo. You are Huo Qichen's wife, but before this, you are just yourself."
This statement was too general for Jian Mo to understand. Before she could ask any further questions, the phone was hung up.
The waiter led Jian Mo to an independent courtyard where everything was well arranged.
Jian Mo politely sent the waiter away and sat on the stone bench in front of the yard for a while to calm her heart.
Today was the first time she met the Huo family. Although everyone was friendly, a certain xenophobia could not be ignored.
It was probably because she was not the spouse that the Huo family was satisfied with, and also because her background was too ordinary.
She tried her best to be as at ease as Huo Qichen and Huo Wan, but she still seemed very reserved. In other words, she was petty.
I once read Yi Shu's "Cheng Huan Ji," which describes a woman who grew up in a slum, fortunately having read a few more books, mistakenly believing she could be on equal terms with others. However, life is always a relay race, yet we naively treat it as a 100-meter sprint. You and I are all mortals, and few, especially women, can break free from the primitive class. In the face of marriage, love is too insignificant.
I couldn’t understand it before, but now I understand it, I am already a member of the book.
Jian Mo sighed and laughed at herself.
Not long after, Huo Qi Chen came back and happened to see Jian Mo boiling water in the kitchen.
Jian Mo saw a few pieces of paper on the table, which should be the report cards given to him by Huo Wan.
It was just a joke, but he actually took it seriously. You can imagine how determined he is to join the Huo family.
"Aren't you afraid of raising a tiger and causing trouble?"
Jian Mo held the glass and was about to pour hot water, but the man gently took it away, poured it for her, and put it to her lips to cool it down.
"If I can raise a tiger, I can naturally tame him." Huo Qichen finally showed his gentle expression outside of social interactions.
Jian Mo was distracted. She had many questions to ask but didn't know where to start.
The hot water had cooled a little, so he handed the cup to her lips and let her drink it bit by bit as if feeding a cat.
Listen to him: "Some people get close to power and then think they have it."
"You won't learn your lesson if you don't fall."
Huo Qi Chen reached out to wipe away the water droplets from the corner of her mouth, took off the jade bracelet on her hand, and only kept the one given by her grandfather.
He said nonchalantly, "This jade bracelet is worth a million."
Jian Mo seemed startled.
He gently dropped the million-dollar bracelet on the table and said calmly, "But we won't wear it."
"What do you want to eat?" It was noon, and Huo Qi Chen asked as he opened his locker.
Jian Mo was held in his arms, with his perfectly curved jaw resting on top of her head. His warm breath surrounded her body, forcing her to feel at ease in this unfamiliar place.
A man's embrace is always strong, and every move he makes conveys a message: I am here for you.
There was a lot of food in the locker. Jian Mo bit her lower lip, thought for a while, and tiptoed to get it.
"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes?"
Placed on a white porcelain table.
Huo Qichen took a few more things he was going to make, rinsed them with his big hands under the water, and then patted the woman's butt in a playful manner. "Okay, wait for me outside, it will be quick."
Jian Mo glared at him. This guy... Her cheeks turned red.
The man put his fist to his lips, suppressing a smile, "Wait."
Jian Mo complained, "You rascal."
I ran out, saw what he had put on the table, and asked, "Can I see it?"
"Um."
It was actually just a very ordinary resume, with Huo Wan's ID photo affixed to it. The Huo family had excellent genes, so even their ID photos looked good. Jian Mo didn't see any key information below and put it back where it was.
I turned back and saw Huo Qichen cutting tomatoes. The tall man stood in the kitchen and there was no sense of incongruity.
In fact, Huo Qichen has always been a good cook, and he has cooked for her before, just less often.
Now this is the Huo family... If people find out that the young master is cooking by himself, will he have any objection to her?
Jian Mo rolled her eyes, then returned to him and skillfully cracked two eggs into the bowl.
Huo Qichen looked at her in surprise, picked up a piece of tomato with chopsticks and fed it into her mouth, "Do you want to help me?"
The taste was sour and sweet, and the woman's cheeks bulged after eating it. After swallowing it, she said, "Huo Wan... have you seen me before?"
Huo Qichen raised his eyebrows and fed her another piece. "Probably not. The Huo family is conservative. He had no contact with the outside world before he went to college."
That means there is absolutely no intersection.
That's living in an ivory tower, not being exposed to anything new. It's ridiculous that you're so harsh on men too.
For the first time, she lamented this place, "It's pedantic."
"Pedantic?" Huo Qichen smiled calmly and tapped her small nose. "Naive."
His fingers slid down, touched her red lips, and stopped.
Tomato juice overflowed on her lips, bright and fresh, no less pungent than any chemical product. Jian Mo didn't notice the man's dangerous look. She stared intently at the remaining tomatoes on the chopping board and quietly reached out to grab them...
She was discovered, her wrist was grabbed, and handcuffed behind her back, and she was bombarded with cold kisses.
It wasn't a deep kiss, but a peck like a dragonfly skimming the water, one after another, which made Jian Mo laugh. She tried to avoid him and burrow into his arms, "Eh? I'm hungry."
This was her first mistake.
She meant she was hungry, but who would have thought that as soon as she said this, she would be attacked by a deep kiss, tightly entangled, sweeping every inch of her territory, leaving behind his scent.
I tasted it, sour and sweet.
He laughed, and the vibration of his chest made the woman in his arms feel palpitations.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Huo Qichen obviously didn't want to control it. He picked her up by the waist and put her on the sofa outside.
It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.
Jian Mo didn't expect Huo Qichen to be so bold, here...
She wanted to refuse, but his eyes, tinged with boundless lust, rejected her: "Didn't you say you were hungry?"
