On Friday, Yan Xi and his classmates only had classes in the morning, not in the afternoon or evening. So as soon as the morning class ended, he packed up and rode his bike to go home.
When he arrived at the school gate, a familiar luxury car appeared in front of him on time.
Then, Liu Yang got out of the car, ran up to him, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, it's the weekend, and Mr. Huo asked me to pick you up."
Yan Xi was stunned. He never expected that he would come so quickly and block him at the school gate at the exact moment.
He looked at the bicycle beneath him and nodded politely, "Okay, but I want to go home and talk to my family first."
Liu Yang thought about it and agreed, "Okay."
However, he put Yanxi's bicycle in the trunk and asked Yanxi to get in the car.
Yan Xi couldn't persuade him and could only get in the car obediently.
But today is Friday, and there are a lot of students out playing, resulting in more and more people gathering at the door.
Some people who knew the value of the car saw the car Liu Yang was driving and started whispering to each other.
"Who is that boy? How come he knows such a rich guy?"
"Isn't he a rich second-generation? The man next to him looks like a driver."
"Rich second generation? Brother, are you kidding me? Look at how poor he is. He's more like a poor second generation than a rich second generation! But he's pretty handsome. I guess that rich woman has taken a fancy to him."
As everyone was discussing, someone suddenly screamed, "Ah, look, it's Senior Huo Chen!"
The people present looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of handsome men and beautiful women walking out, talking and laughing.
The leading boy was tall and handsome, and his eyes and eyebrows were 50% similar to Huo Xiao.
He walked calmly and leisurely, accustomed to everyone's exclamations and admiring looks.
But the disdain and arrogance in his eyes could not be concealed.
Perhaps the luxury car Liu Yang was driving was too conspicuous, so this group of people also noticed it.
"Hey, Huo Chen, isn't that your second brother's assistant Liu Yang? Isn't he driving here to pick you up?"
Hearing this, Huo Chen looked up and was a little surprised to see that it was indeed Liu Yang and Huo Xiao's car.
His second brother sent someone to pick him up?
Is this true or false?
No matter what, he had to pretend.
Thinking about it, Huo Chen straightened his clothes, curled his lips, raised his foot, and prepared to go forward to say hello to Liu Yang. However, before he took a few steps, the boy who was talking to Liu Yang got on the car, and Liu Yang followed him in and rode away.
Huo Chen's smile froze on his face immediately.
"Hey? Why did he leave so suddenly? Huo Chen hasn't even gotten in the car yet? Could it be that he wasn't here to pick up Huo Chen?"
"Hahahaha, isn't this obvious? Liu Yang is here to pick up that boy, isn't this awkward?"
"But how does that boy know Liu Yang? Huo Chen, could he be a distant relative of yours who's fallen on hard times?"
A distant relative in poverty?
How does he know?
Totally unfamiliar.
What is Huo Xiao doing?
Damn, he was embarrassed again!
Huo Chen clenched his fists, looked back at them with a cold face, and the group of people immediately put away their smiles and shut up.
…
When Yan Xi returned home, Grandma Lu happened to be about to go out to buy groceries. Seeing him coming back, she immediately smiled and said, "Xiao Xi, you're back just in time. What do you want for dinner? I'll go to the vegetable market and buy some right away."
Yan Xi put down his schoolbag, pursed his lips, looked at her, and said somewhat bewilderedly: "Grandma, I will be going to my classmates' houses to play these few days on the weekend, so I may not be home for dinner."
"Oh, I see..." Grandma Lu's smile faded, and she nodded in understanding, her eyes becoming softer. "That's good. You're so tired every day, so it's good to go to your classmate's house to play and relax. Grandma has some money here. Take it and buy something for him. It's not good to go to his house empty-handed."
As she spoke, she took out a roll of warm money and gave it to him.
Yan Xi quickly refused, "No, grandma, I still have money on me, so that's it, I'll leave first, he's still waiting for me downstairs, grandma, you have to be more careful at home alone, leave the dirty work to me when I come back."
"Okay, go quickly and don't keep people waiting too long." Grandma Lu smiled and sent him out.
——
The big villa under Huo Xiao’s name.
Liu Yang parked the car at the door. He wanted to help Yan Xi open the door, but Huo Xiao came out at some point and opened the door on Yan Xi's right side himself.
Yan Xi, who was about to open the door, just raised her hand and looked at him blankly, "Thank you..."
Before he finished speaking, Huo Xiao stared at him straight, his thin lips parted, "Why didn't you answer my call?"
The sudden questioning left Yan Xi confused.
Phone? What phone?
When did the male protagonist call him?
Seeing his bewildered look, Huo Xiao had an answer in his mind, "You didn't bring the phone I gave you?"
Yan Xi understood immediately after hearing this and nodded awkwardly, "Sorry, I forgot."
Huo Xiao pursed his lips, but felt inexplicably happy in his heart.
So that's how it is.
He didn't mean to ignore his calls.
"Okay, remember next time." Huo Xiao grabbed his wrist and ignored Yan Xi's surprised look. "Let's go. I've already bought the ingredients."
Yan Xi looked at the strong hand that was holding his right hand tightly, his heart pounding. He wanted to pull it back, but it was held even tighter.
But Huo Xiao didn't look at him, leaving him at a loss.
After getting out of the car, he cleared his throat and said politely: "Mr. Huo, I can walk by myself, can you let me go?"
