The young man's blushing and shy look immediately struck Huo Xiao's heart. He looked at Yan Xi and felt inexplicably dry in the mouth.
Huo Xiao rolled his Adam's apple slightly and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work today."
"It's okay." Yan Xi still didn't dare to look him in the eye. She replied casually and then brushed past him with the dish in her hand. "Mr. Huo, please come out and sit in the dining room."
"Okay." Huo Xiao followed him with his eyes and tactfully helped bring out the food.
After everything was ready, the two sat face to face.
Yan Xi looked at the table full of dishes and said with a smile, "Mr. Huo, you can try it to see if it suits your taste."
Huo Xiao nodded slightly and took off his suit jacket naturally, revealing the white shirt underneath.
Seeing this, Yan Xi's eyes flashed with light. Just when Huo Xiao couldn't wait to pick up some food, he said, "Wait."
Huo Xiao looked at him with confusion.
"The sleeve." Yan Xi pointed to his right hand that was almost stained with oil from the dish, "You can roll it up."
Huo Xiao quickly raised his hand, put down his chopsticks, unbuttoned his sleeves, and rolled up his sleeves.
During the whole process, Yan Xi stared without blinking, until the birthmarks with two half bite marks appeared in his sight, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, and a burning light flashed in his black and white eyes.
After Huo Xiao put his arm around her, he picked up his chopsticks again and prepared to start eating, but he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the young man's fiery eyes and paused for a moment.
Yan Xi was not flustered. She curved her eyebrows and picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it in his bowl. "Try this first."
Huo Xiao hummed lightly, lowered his eyes and looked at the ribs in the bowl. The depths of his indifferent and deep eyes were like a lake that was stirred up by something, causing ripples and undercurrents.
The only people in this world who dare to pick food for him are his parents.
There is no one else.
And now this ban has been easily broken.
And the other person looked natural, as if he had done it thousands of times before him.
Huo Xiao lowered his head and took a bite. The taste instantly aroused his appetite.
He couldn't wait to try the other dishes, and they tasted surprisingly good.
It is no exaggeration to say that this skill is comparable to that of the imperial chefs in the palace.
Seeing him like this, Yan Xi knew that she had successfully won his stomach, and she couldn't help but lower her head and secretly rejoice.
While eating, Huo Xiao adhered to the principle of not talking while eating and not talking while sleeping and did not speak a word.
Yan Xi didn't say anything either.
After the meal, although it was so quiet that only the sound of chewing could be heard, it felt inexplicably warm and harmonious.
Huo Xiao would sneak a peek at Yan Xi from time to time, and every time he would be touched by the cute look of the young man's puffy cheeks.
After eating and drinking, Yan Xi cleared the dishes and prepared to wash them, but Huo Xiao was a little puzzled, "Are you washing them by hand?"
"Yes." Yan Xi nodded with a smile.
Huo Xiao pointed to the dishwasher next to him and said, "There is a dishwasher. The dishwasher washes very cleanly."
Yan Xi took a look and thought that he felt his hands were not clean enough, so he said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, I'm used to it."
After saying that, he put the dishes into the dishwasher.
Used to it?
Huo Xiao looked at him, frowning slightly.
So, does he often wash dishes by hand?
Washing dishes by hand frequently hurts your hands, and...
Huo Xiao fixed his eyes on the young man's white and slender hands and pursed his lips.
His hands are so beautiful that they are more suitable for doing something else.
Suddenly, he remembered that the information Liu Yang had looked up about the young man mentioned that he loved playing the piano when he was a child, but later because of a series of accidents that happened to his family, he gave up this hobby.
Thinking about it, Huo Xiao suddenly asked, "Do you still like playing the piano?"
Hearing his words, Yan Xi paused and looked back at him.
Play the piano?
This seems to be the original owner's hobby in childhood.
It seems that this guy also secretly investigated himself.
Yan Xi seemed to have thought of something, and nodded with a curved lip, "I like it, but how did Mr. Huo know that I like playing the piano?"
He stared at him with puzzled eyes.
Realizing that he seemed to have exposed something, Huo Xiao remained calm and composed, "Liu Yang told me."
"Oh." Yan Xi asked innocently, "Then how did Liu Yang know?"
Huo Xiao: “…”
"I don't know. I'll ask for you some other day."
Yan Xi looked at the man in front of her who remained calm and almost laughed out loud.
Humph, if I had investigated it myself I would have told you directly, but you insist on passing the blame to others.
The young man kept looking at him, and even Huo Xiao, a powerful businessman, couldn't stand it anymore. He looked away silently and said casually, "Do you still want to continue to like him?"
Hearing this, Yan Xi pretended to smile bitterly, "I do want to, but my current condition doesn't allow it. Perhaps this is the only way I can do it in the future."
Looking at his eyes that suddenly became dull, Huo Xiao felt a little uncomfortable. "As long as you like, I can help you."
When Yan Xi heard this, her eyes lit up slightly and she looked at him with joy, "Really?"
"Yeah." Huo Xiao stared at him with his dark eyes, an indescribable emotion surging in his eyes, which made Yan Xi's heart beat faster. "But I have a condition."
Yan Xi looked at his extremely aggressive eyes, as if she had guessed what the condition was, but her face was blank. "What condition?"
Huo Xiao stepped forward, approaching him step by step, blocking the light in front of Yan Xi's eyes, slightly bent down, clasped his wrist, and said in a slightly domineering tone: "Be with me."
