After returning from T State, the first thing Huo Qinian did was to give Mary a long vacation. The reason he found was very lofty: to express his condolences and care for the physical and mental health of employees who worked diligently during the epidemic and unfortunately encountered snow disasters because of business trips, and to approve them for paid vacation.

—— Huo Qinian said these words in a high-sounding manner, without any embarrassment.

Mary, who suddenly got a vacation, blinked and looked at Huo Qinian, then looked at Su Yunbai who was holding her forehead, and smiled knowingly.

The boss thought her light bulb was too bright.

She understood and promised to stay away from him.

Mary packed her things and went on vacation happily that day.

Su Yunbai was embarrassed for a long time, and seeing that Huo Qinian acted as if nothing had happened, he felt a little angry, "Can you not be so... indifferent?"

Huo Qinian said in surprise, "Is this what you call indifferent? I have already given a very decent reason! Besides, we two love each other, how can you let a single dog like Mary cope? I am sympathizing with her!"

Su Yunbai endured for a long time, but he was not as thick-skinned as Huo Qinian: "Can you please speak properly!"

And "love each other"...

How can he say such a word so easily?

Huo Qinian looked innocent: "It's not that I chased her away on purpose. In fact, even if I didn't say anything, Mary would have found an excuse to avoid me. She still has some sense. Didn't you see that she has been taking the initiative to take another car all the way?

" "Besides, falling in love is everyone's right. I'm proud that I have a girlfriend! Why should I hide it?" "

Su Yunbai couldn't argue with him.

She was a reserved person and was not used to talking about her private emotional affairs in front of others, even if it was not a secret and there was nothing shameful about it.

In other words, "showing off affection" had always been far away from Su Yunbai.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Huo Qinian not only didn't stop while he was ahead, but also took the opportunity to "turn the tables" and accused her, "Or have you already started to prepare to kick me out, so you always don't want to get close to me in front of others? "

Su Yunbai was confused.

Where did this make sense?

Huo Qinian said sourly: "Yes, you said you didn't want to be responsible... I am the boyfriend, it's normal for you to worry..."

When this was mentioned, Su Yunbai came back to his senses.

Here it comes again, Huo Qinian is retreating to advance.

This person really doesn't want to suffer any loss, and is very good at making further advances. No matter what they talked about at the beginning, he can always turn the topic to this.

Su Yunbai knew that although Huo Qinian didn't say it explicitly, she was still brooding over what she said that day, "I don't want to be responsible."

He wanted to hear her positive acknowledgement. Admit his identity, admit Acknowledge his relationship with her. If possible, it would be best if they could quickly move on to remarriage...

But Su Yunbai was unwilling to compromise on these matters.

It was not that she deliberately kept Huo Qinian hanging, but the self-protective side of her character was always at work. It always pessimistically reminded her of her failed past, so that even if she really wanted to move towards a new life, she was still a little cautious in her mentality, and was only willing to take it step by step, carefully and tentatively moving forward.

Once bitten by a snake, she would not be able to gather up the courage to risk her life again so quickly.

This fact might be a little hurtful, so Su Yunbai never mentioned it, and at the moment she could only sigh helplessly: "What are you thinking about again. "

It was a calming tone.

Huo Qinian's sharp temperament suddenly felt the knot in Su Yunbai's unspoken heart.

His heart was stabbed.

It was all the sins he had done before...

Huo Qinian had never felt so clearly how deeply he had hurt her.

In fact, it was already good now.

He had to eat one bite at a time, so he shouldn't be too impatient.

Thinking of this, Huo Qinian settled for the next best thing: "It's easy to stop me from thinking. He said, "Yun Bai, do you still have an empty room here?"

He put on a serious face, as if he was just making a very rational choice, "No one has lived next door for a long time, and it will take a while to clean it. How about you take me in? " "

Su Yunbai opened his mouth, facing Huo Qinian's burning eyes, and quickly found a reason to refuse: "But Mary already lives in that room."

Huo Qinian said: "Mary has gone on vacation."

"But...but that also needs to be cleaned up. In terms of the workload, cleaning the next door house is not slower than cleaning Mary's room, right?"

Huo Qinian cleared his throat, "The problem is, Mary has already moved out. In fact, her room has been cleaned up long ago. "

Su Yunbai was stunned and a little suspicious.

She went forward and opened the door of the second bedroom next door. What she saw was completely empty. Even the bed frame was gone. It was a completely empty room.

Su Yunbai was shocked.

When did Mary move out?

Didn't she just go on vacation? How come even the room was empty?

Su Yunbai turned around to look at Huo Qinian.

If she still didn't know that it was his doing, then she would be stupid.

Huo Qinian said nonchalantly: "On the way back, Mary asked me if she could live next door in the future, and I agreed. I didn't expect Mary to be so impatient..."

Su Yunbai crossed his arms and looked at him with a half-smile on his face.

Continue making up.

Who is impatient?

Huo Qinian was still looking at Su Yunbai, trying to soften her heart, "I haven't had a good rest recently. Look, do I have dark circles under my eyes?

"No one has lived next door for so long. I just went to take a look, and I always felt that there was a rotten and dull smell in the air. After living in your house for a long time, I don't like that smell anymore..."

Huo Qinian talked nonstop.

But Su Yunbai knew him very well. If he was really sure, he shouldn't talk so much. He would just be very righteous and concise.

Su Yunbai looked at Huo Qinian, and indeed, he saw a subtle hint of tension and anxiety in his expression.

——Although he appears to be so strong, he is actually afraid of being rejected.

Su Yunbai felt a little sad.

Wasn't she too unkind?

Su Yunbai sighed, "Why bother? You can't stay for a few days..."

Huo Qinian was stunned, "What do you mean? Are you moving?"

Su Yunbai said, "It's not my problem, but yours. Aren't you going back home soon?"

He came to find her. Now that she is fine, he estimates that he will go back soon. Since there are only a few days left, isn't it troublesome to move here and there?

Huo Qinian raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who told you that I will be back soon? Since I'm here, I won't leave in a short time."

Su Yunbai was stunned.

Not leaving?

Huo Qinian looked at her, seemingly puzzled: "You are still here, where should I go? Of course I have to go with you."

He said without hesitation, as if it was a matter of course.

Su Yunbai was stunned for a long time.

Is it for her?

He stayed for her?

Su Yunbai didn't know why he was a little flustered and short of breath, "But you...what about your company? Don't you have to go back? The epidemic is not over yet? If you are not here..."

Huo Qinian said: "I went back before because the epidemic had just started, and many things were emergencies. I had to go back to stabilize people's hearts. Now the epidemic has been going on for more than a year, and many things have become regulations. If there are any emergencies at that time, just follow the regulations.

"The company can still function without me, but if you don't have me here..." He said faintly, "You must have forgotten me. "

Su Yunbai was speechless for a long while before he said, "No. You don't have to do this. If you can't get away from the company..."

"I know what I'm doing." Huo Qinian said, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly frowned, "Wait, you thought I was leaving before, but in just a few days, you didn't even think about giving in to me? My boyfriend is really a fake, right?"

Su Yunbai felt a little guilty, "Didn't I give in to you a lot?"

Huo Qinian said incredulously, "You call this giving in to me? You even refused to let me move in! What about now? I can move in now, right?"

Su Yunbai was a little overwhelmed, "Huo Qinian, have you ever heard of the saying 'Far away, near smells bad'? Wouldn't it be nice to live next door? Not too far, not too close..."

Huo Qinian put his hands in his pockets, looking a little cold, "I haven't heard of it, I just heard that the one who is close to the water gets the moon first." "

I have a bad temper and am not a very good roommate..."

"What a coincidence, I, Huo, am good at dealing with bad tempers."

"I may have an irregular schedule, not sleeping late at night and getting up early in the morning..." "

Then as your boyfriend, I should move in. I have to watch over you and supervise you to rest on time!"

Su Yunbai was choked.

Huo Qinian half leaned against the door frame, looked at her calmly, and said: "What other 'shortcomings' do you have that suddenly popped up and I don't know about? Tell me all at once.

"But before you say anything, let me introduce myself first."

Fok Chi-nin acted as if he was really looking for a roommate, and deliberately adopted a businesslike tone: "My name is Fok Chi-nin, I am 187 cm tall, I don't keep pets, I love cleanliness, I have a regular schedule, I am polite, I can drive, I can take care of the hygiene of public areas, and I am willing to undertake a certain range of housework...

" "If you trust me enough, I can also provide relevant financial and current affairs analysis..."

Everything was normal.

But Fok Chi-nin was Fok Chi-nin after all, and as he spoke, things began to change: "Of course, I am definitely knowledgeable and interested. If Ms. Su, the landlord, wants to ask me for some additional services beyond the obligations of landlord and tenant during the lease period...

"Well, this kind of thing is not impossible to negotiate..."

As he said this, he looked at Su Yunbai with his eyes, and his hint was very obvious.

Su Yunbai: ...

She was speechless for a long time, and couldn't help but hold her forehead, "Huo Qinian, can you have some shame?"

Huo Qinian said seriously: "I just mentioned a possibility. You reacted so strongly. Are you feeling guilty?"

Su Yunbai endured and endured, but couldn't help it: "Is this your attitude towards seeking a roommate? Do you still want to move in?"

Huo Qinian's eyes lit up, "So you agree?" He was so happy, "Go and move your luggage now!"

"Wait, when did I agree? You haven't moved in yet, and you dare to talk to me like this. If I really let you move in, wouldn't I be mad at you every day?"

"Don't worry about that. I just did it unintentionally. I'm not a troublemaker... Besides, you suddenly don't let me move. Doesn't that mean you're feeling guilty again? In order to prove your innocence, you shouldn't avoid me."

Huo Qinian said as he lowered his head, almost getting face to face with Su Yunbai.

He smiled, but his eyes were serious. "Didn't you say you wanted to try to start over with me? Since we're going to try, we should be thorough. You have to keep an eye on me and examine me.

" "I'm going to move the luggage now? "

Su Yunbai hesitated for a moment.

Huo Qinian was a man who knew how to seize opportunities, so he took it as her consent.

Soon, Huo Qinian's luggage moved into Su Yunbai's home.

Su Yunbai looked at the gradually filling up second bedroom and felt that she was a little confused.

It has only been a short time, and she is going to live with Huo Qinian...?

Although it is not that they have lived together before, this time is different.

Extra services beyond the obligations of landlords and tenants...

Wait, what is she thinking?

Su Yunbai covered her face.

She was really led into the ditch by Huo Qinian.
