After breakfast, Huo Xiao went out.
Liu Yang also drove over and waited for him outside the ancestral home.
As soon as Huo Xiao got in the car, Liu Yang habitually headed towards the company.
But before they had gone far, Huo Xiao suddenly said, "Let's go to the nearby shopping mall."
Liu Yang looked at him through the rearview mirror and asked, "Aren't you going to the company?"
"Isn't it a holiday?" Huo Xiao asked calmly.
"Huh?" Liu Yang was startled. He noticed Huo Xiao was looking at him and nodded perfunctorily, "Yes, yes."
But I secretly complained about him in my heart.
You know it's a holiday.
I was made to work overtime even during holidays.
He couldn't count how many times he had to work overtime during the holidays.
Because his boss, Mr. Huo, is a workaholic.
Even if he has a holiday, he only takes half a day off. Even if all the employees are on holiday, he will stick to his post and perform his duties conscientiously.
but!
Why does he have to work overtime too?
Liu Yang's heart was filled with tears.
If it weren't for the high overtime pay, he would have quit his job long ago.
So Liu Yang drove to a nearby shopping mall.
Huo Xiao bought some precious gifts. Liu Yang thought secretly that it seemed that these gifts were most likely for Lu Yanxi.
No wonder he was willing to give himself a holiday this year. It turns out that things are different now. He has someone else outside and he has to accompany his lover.
In order to flatter him, Liu Yang said with a smile: "Mr. Huo has a good eye. Mr. Lu will definitely like it."
Huo Xiao looked at him, pursed his thin lips, but said nothing. He picked out a few more things and asked the clerk to pack them.
Then Liu Yang followed him out of the mall with bags in her hands.
After getting in the car, Huo Xiao's next words made him extremely embarrassed, "Let's go to Su's house."
"Ah? Aren't we going to Mr. Lu's place?" Liu Yang's eyes almost popped out.
Huo Xiao looked at him quietly.
Liu Yang realized that he had overreacted, and quickly calmed down, saying with an awkward smile, "Okay, okay, I'll turn around right away."
Phew...that was a close call, I almost lost my job.
How could he forget that the eldest daughter of the Su family would be the future president's wife?
Well, speaking of which, Mr. Huo has become quite a scumbag recently.
He used to be a chaste man, and was the dream lover of thousands of girls. Who would have thought that he was no different from other rich men, actually supporting a gigolo while pursuing beautiful and rich girls. It was a bit immoral no matter how you looked at it.
But as a working man, he has no right to interfere in other people's private lives.
The world of rich people is so complicated, wow.
Huo Xiao, who was sitting in the back, ignored him. Instead, he touched the gift bag beside him, looked at the world outside the window, and thought about something. After a long time, he curled his lips and placed the center of gravity of his body completely on the backrest.
It doesn't matter anymore.
Nothing matters anymore.
It doesn’t matter to him whether he can inherit the family business or not. As long as he has enough ability, he will have no worries about having no place to display his talents in the future.
Yan Xi's grandmother was right. The bond between men was maintained by a little bit of affection. If he wanted to keep Yan Xi, he had to find a way to strengthen the bond between them.
For example, going to a foreign country to get a marriage certificate and give Yanxi enough sense of security is equivalent to giving yourself enough sense of security. Only in this way can they be together for a long time.
Su family.
Su Ying was a little surprised when she learned that Huo Xiao was coming.
Could it be that she wants to express her feelings to his father and get engaged as soon as possible?
Su Ying was a little panicked. If this was true, why didn't he discuss it with her in advance?
Thinking of this, Su Ying was waiting at the door early. When she saw Huo Xiao get out of the car, she hurried forward, pulled him to the corner, and asked nervously, "Why are you here?"
Seeing that the two of them were whispering, Liu Yang tactfully drove the car away.
Huo Xiao handed her the gift in his hand and said, "I came here to tell you that the cooperation has been cancelled. I'm sorry, but I have new plans."
"What?" Su Ying was stunned. "Cancel the cooperation? Are you serious? Didn't you say that you have someone you like, but you want to get the inheritance rights, and you want to fake an engagement with me and then cancel the engagement and be with him? Why did you cancel the cooperation so suddenly?"
Huo Xiao nodded. "Seriously, I've thought about it carefully, and this method isn't quite right. I know you want to use this method to avoid the family marriage and marry someone you don't like, but if we're engaged and then cancel the wedding because of the person I like, it won't be good for your reputation. Of course, the most important thing is that I want to give the person I like enough sense of security. I don't want him to misunderstand me. As for you, don't worry. I'll find a way to help you marry the person you like and won't let you be trapped in the family marriage. Just consider it... my repayment."
If it weren't for her, he and Yan Xi might not have met or fallen in love.
Speaking of which, Su Ying is their matchmaker.
Su Ying bit her lower lip and after thinking for a moment, she had no choice but to respect his choice. "Okay then, we'll just stop cooperating. If you have any problems in the future, you can still ask me for help. I can cover for you."
Huo Xiao smiled faintly and refused, "No, I don't want him to misunderstand me, because I want to find an opportunity to propose to him, and I don't want to cause any trouble at this moment."
"But if you come out now, it will be very risky. Are you really not going to consider it?" Su Ying frowned, a little worried about him.
"Don't think about it. Thank you for spending your time with me during this period of time." Huo Xiao bowed slightly politely, which made Su Ying a little flattered.
"No need to thank me, no need to thank me. You are too polite. Although we are not partners now, we are still friends after all. It is not appropriate for you to be so polite. By the way, did you come here today just to tell me this?" Su Ying asked doubtfully.
