Chapter 423 I said he was not happy
Good talents should not be buried.
Even if Chen Linxi only performs in this play.
After the meal, Qiu Manman asked him where he lived.
"dormitory."
"Has anyone in the dormitory bullied you?" Bai Niao asked the key point.
Chen Linxi hesitated, and finally said with consideration, "No."
It would have been fine if I hadn't hesitated. I hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "No."
Any normal person would know that there is cat shit in it.
"Move out and don't live in the dormitory. I'll find you a house with a better environment."
"It's too expensive. No."
Qiu Manman thought for a while and said, "I remember I have an apartment for short-term rental. I wanted to move in there, but Si Zhuo kept nagging me for a few days and I didn't make it."
"Chen Linxi, you can go and live here."
"This seems a little inappropriate. If your husband finds out, will he misunderstand our relationship?"
Chen Linxi has many concerns.
Bai Niao strongly supports Qiu Manman's suggestion.
Qiu Manman didn't care at all. "As long as you don't mind that I've lived here for a few days, Si Zhuo will investigate the background of everyone around me afterwards."
"Don't worry about that."
Chen Linxi's face turned pale. "You think Si Zhuo would investigate so thoroughly?"
Qiu Manman hummed, "He may have a different set of standards for girls."
"If it's a boy, I guess we can find out your ancestors, including which grave you urinated on when you were a child."
Bai Niao laughed wildly, "Si Zhuo's possessiveness is too strong."
"Well, it's all my fault."
Chen Linxi's heart was filled with sorrow.
Can he still pass Si Zhuo's so-called investigation?
What if something was discovered and brought to the attention of Qiu Manman, how would she treat him?
He didn't want to think too much.
But I am always greedy and want more.
…
Chen Linxi's residence is currently the apartment where Qiu Manman once lived.
That night, Si Zhuo learned from his assistant that there was someone living in the apartment he bought in the city center.
Still a man.
When the photo was sent to him, Si Zhuo saw the face that brought disaster to the country and the people.
I was so angry that I laughed out loud.
It turns out that people can actually laugh out loud when they are extremely angry.
Special Assistant Feng was reporting the work progress via video when he suddenly heard his boss sneer and his heart was in suspense.
"Mr. Si, is my pronunciation not standard?"
"You have done a good job reporting, get off work;"
The video call was disconnected.
Special Assistant Feng scratched his head, totally confused as to what was going on.
As usual, Si Zhuo arranged for his assistant to find someone to check on Chen Linxi.
In the master bedroom across the wall, Qiu Manman sat cross-legged with a laptop on her lap, concentrating on reading the script.
The current script has only been slightly modified.
Xiao Liu called.
Qiu Manman answered casually, "Are you still awake?"
"I just heard some gossip. How can I feel sleepy? Did you and Bai Niao pick up a handsome guy at the hot pot restaurant today?"
"Teacher Bai Niao told you so soon?" Qiu Manman annotated the last detail and closed the laptop.
Xiao Liu smiled mischievously, "I saw the photo, he's quite handsome, and I have no objection to the role you picked for him."
"That's good, now you know about this."
Xiao Liu changed the subject, "I know that, but you arranged for that handsome guy to stay in the small apartment, does Si Zhuo know about it?"
"Why did you let Si Zhuo know about this? Now I understand. Judging from his jealousy, he must have known about Chen Linxi's existence."
"I'm not afraid. Chen Linxi and I are innocent."
“It’s all about work.”
"That's right, it's all for work. If Si Zhuo wants to take advantage of this situation, I promise to support you." Xiao Liu said righteously.
Qiu Manman: "He is very rational, he won't do that."
Si Zhuo at the door thought about it and decided not to do that for the time being.
"Are you free tomorrow? Let's meet."
"I have time every day, but you have to tell me what the purpose of the meeting is?"
"Of course, eating."
Through the screen, Xiao Liu rubbed his temples. Qiu Manman is becoming more and more difficult to fool now.
Qiu Manman is still on guard against Xiao Liu.
I'm afraid of an unexpected meeting and running into Huo Miao.
"Eating is easy, come to Jiashuiwan. You know our Xiaoshi's cooking skills."
"The food at home tastes different from outside. Would you like to go out with me to eat?"
Qiu Manman asked cautiously, "Are you still going to take Huo Miao with you?"
"Do you want to bring it or not?"
"I'll meet you without you."
The two men reached an agreement.
Xiao Liu followed her wishes and said, "Then don't bring it. Manman, are you hiding from Huo Miao?"
This question made Qiu Manman tremble with fear.
Even if you are hiding, you cannot admit it.
"Please, Xiao Liu, don't be too obsessed with Nao. Although I am married, have you ever seen me bring Si Zhuo with me when I go out to dinner with you?"
"That's true."
Xiao Liu was convinced by this logic.
Xiao Liu hung up the phone and looked at the man in front of him with complicated eyes, who was closing his eyes and savoring the voice just now.
"Huo Ji, take off your silly face."
"I haven't seen Qiu Manman for a long time. I can't see her even if I want to. I can only rely on you."
Xiao Liu said coldly, "Who told me I'm a selfish bad woman?"
Huo Ji did not comment.
"Knock knock knock" Huo Miao's weak voice rang at the door, "Xiao Liu, are you in there?"
Xiao Liu pushed Huo Ji into the closet.
"I'm here, Huo Miao, come in."
"You didn't know how to lock the door before, but it seems like you locked it just now?" Huo Miao smiled slightly, his tone still gentle.
His eyes were already roaming around the room.
As soon as he entered the room, Huo Miao smelled a familiar woody scent.
This fragrance is still strong and has not dissipated.
It's from Huo Ji.
Huo Miao immediately understood that the person who had just spoken to her in the room was Huo Ji.
"Xiao Liu, I smell a nice fragrance."
"What's that fragrance? Why can't I smell it?" Xiao Liu sniffed hard, but there was nothing.
Huo Miao: "I'll look for it."
"ha?"
Looking for it?
How do I find him? I searched in the room. What if I found Huo Ji?
Could it be that Huo Miao already knew that Huo Ji had just arrived?
That fragrance came from Huo Ji. Maybe she couldn't smell it anymore after staying there for too long.
Xiao Liu stopped Huo Miao who was about to go to the bathroom and said, "Your brother just came here and asked me about your health."
"Oh? It turns out to be my brother."
Xiao Liu nodded quickly.
I thought I had passed this level.
Huo Miao suddenly opened the closet door and stared at Huo Ji who was hiding inside.
Both brothers fell into silence.
"Brother, why don't you explain?"
Huo Miao stroked the closet door with his index finger, his face expressionless.
Xiao Liu was so embarrassed that she wished there was a crack in the ground so she could crawl into it.
Huo Ji came out of the closet calmly.
"I came to talk to her about meeting Qiu Manman tomorrow. Before I finished talking, you knocked on the door and she pushed me into the closet. I didn't know anything."
"Can I see Qiu Manman tomorrow?"
Huo Miao's attention shifted.
"Yes, your brother likes her and has transferred his affection to Qiu Manman. The kid doesn't have any other hobbies, so I fulfilled his wish to ask the goddess out for dinner." Xiao Liu told everything.
Things have developed to this point, there is no need to cover up anymore.
Huo Miao: "That's great. I haven't seen Qiu Manman for a long time. I have something to talk to her about."
"?"
Xiao Liu thought to himself that this was not good, the next sentence wouldn’t be, I’m going too?
Huo Miao: "I'll go too."
Xiao Liu was speechless and choked with emotion.
It was clearly stated on the phone that Huo Miao would not be taken with him.
If Huo Ji goes, he might be able to flatter him later, but it would be unreasonable to bring Huo Miao along.
Xiao Liu used his last resort and told him sincerely, "Huo Miao, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"Lie." Huo Miao did not play by the rules.
Xiao Liu was very angry.
Huo Ji: "The lie is, I don't want you to go."
Huo Miao didn't care at all. "It's not like Qiu Manman doesn't want to see me. Your opinion is not important."
Huo Ji's eyes flashed with teasing, "The truth is, the one who doesn't want you to go is Qiu Manman."
"She doesn't want to see me? How dare she not see me?"
Huo Miao frowned.
Xiao Liu: "If you want to see Qiu Manman, I can make an appointment for you another day?"
"No, she has nothing to do with me. It doesn't matter whether I see her or not."
Huo Miao stormed away.
Huo Ji explained his behavior, "He's just like a child. He doesn't like what I say to him."
the next day.
Qiu Manman arrived at the agreed restaurant, and the atmosphere was strangely romantic.
"What is Xiao Liu doing? The restaurant he chose is full of couples."
"Ms. Qiu, long time no see."
"?"
A familiar male voice sounded above my head.
It’s Huo Ji.
"Where's Xiao Liu?"
Huo Ji sat opposite her and said, "Xiao Liu didn't come. I asked her to ask you out."
"…………Are you okay?"
"We haven't seen each other for so long. We discussed cooperating in investment to make money, but you didn't come to me. Don't you like large sums of money?"
Qiu Manman picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip. "If you want to cooperate, just call me directly."
"How can I not see you?"
"That's for sure." Huo Ji smiled gently, "You've been quite enthusiastic about the short drama recently."
"You know a lot?"
"Because of you, I understand more." Huo Ji's voice was leisurely and meaningful.
Qiu Manman put down the water cup and said, "Brother, do you need me to remind you? What you are doing is too immoral. I am married."
"The one who is not loved is the mistress. I don't mind."
“???” Qiu Manman was choked and speechless.
"Qiu Manman, what a coincidence, you are also having dinner in this restaurant. Hey, how come my brother is here too?" It was another familiar male voice.
Qiu Manman saw Huo Miao, the person she least wanted to see.
This Huo Miao speaks with great vigor and you can tell at first glance that he is Young Master Huo.
Didn’t Huo Ji notice?
"Tell me, what are your plans?"
Huo Miao took out an empty cup and said, "Qiu Manman, pour me a glass of water."
Qiu Manman pretended not to hear.
Under the table, Huo Miao kicked her calf.
"I'll pour it for you. It's up to you whether you want to drink it or not." Huo Ji quickly poured him a glass of water and placed it heavily in front of him.
“…”
Several couples around were attracted by the incompatible atmosphere of the three of them.
Most of the people who come here to eat are couples.
There were also two men and one woman who came to eat.
They were just eating, why were they arguing about it?
The smell of gunpowder is so strong.
In a love relationship between three people, there must be one superfluous one.
Passers-by and diners all have great imagination.
Until a young girl suddenly realized, "That's autumn."
A lifestyle variety show that is popular all over the country, everyone who has watched it knows Qiu Manman.
People who were far away and stared at the situation over there for a long time could also tell that the woman was Qiu Manman.
Many couples have lost interest.
"Can Qiu Manman get a divorce?"
"I want to see this girl flirting outside."
"How dare you! Where do you put our CEO?"
"We dare to break up our pocket money couple, they are a real couple."
A photo of the three of them eating at the same table was taken by a netizen and posted online.
With just a few pictures, rumors started flying all over the internet.
[The man on the left is really good-looking. If you believe the saying, there will be no ugly men around beautiful women.]
[I like the thinner guy. His jawline is so beautiful. I want to kiss him.]
[Why is Qiu Manman having dinner with two men?]
[Is her and Si Zhuo in a marriage crisis?]
[Please, you netizens have nothing better to do than come to my house and clean my toilet.]
[I felt that Si Zhuo didn’t pay much attention to Qiu Manman when they were on the show before. I guess their relationship is just average, and their affection is just acting.]
[Yes, there is no such thing as true love among the rich.]
All the dishes were served, but Qiu Manman didn't pick up his chopsticks.
"Just eat a couple of bites and go."
"How can you be wronged when eating with us? Eat, eat with big mouthfuls." Huo Ji picked up some food for her.
Huo Miao took the food from Qiu Manman's bowl and said, "You don't want to eat because you don't like it. I'll help you solve it."
Huo Ji was so angry that he laughed, "Huo Miao, what are you mixing in?"
Qiu Manman: "I'll give each of you three minutes to explain your purpose clearly."
"So fierce." Huo Ji pouted, "I've never seen you angry before. I like you very much."
What? You want to play AceAmu?
I still want to be Ai Mu.
Huo Ji said seriously, "I really want to discuss cooperation with you."
Huo Miao: "I still remember the time you beat me in Liancheng last time."
No one said a word when it was mentioned.
Huo Miao and Qiu Manman both ran away that day, and a few days later, Huo Miao came back from outside.
Act as if nothing happened.
Unexpectedly, they went to Rencheng together.
Huo Ji held the water cup tightly in his hand, "Are you still going to elope together?"
"Cough cough cough cough."
The words were so shocking that Qiu Manman felt like she was almost suffocating.
"It wasn't an elopement. We just bumped into each other by chance and went to the same place together."
Huo Miao: "I like Xiaoliu."
Huo Ji looked at him, the light in his eyes was unclear: "It would be better."
A little weird.
It's so weird that I can't explain it.
This strange thing happened to Huo Miao.
"Master Huo, if you are sincere about cooperation, I am also sincere."
After saying this, she was embarrassed and couldn't utter a word to Huo Miao.
"How do you want to calm down?"
"Let me beat you up, or, if you beat me, I won't pursue the matter anymore."
Huo Ji was already eager to make a move, "Do you want to take a punch from me?"
His punch is no joke.
Maybe I can send Huo Miao to heaven.
Qiu Manman was very tired, "I have kept your secret, you are too magnanimous to forget about that little friction."
"snort."
Huo Miao thought it wasn't that easy.
Huo Ji was surprised and stood up suddenly from his seat, "Do you have any more secrets?"
"Brother, do you have any ideas?"
"have."
Qiu Manman lowered her head and secretly set something.
After the two brothers argued for a while, her cell phone rang, "Hey, honey, what did you say?"
"Did our aunt fall?"
"This matter can be a big deal or a small one. I'll go back as soon as possible. You guys continue eating. The food is still hot."
