Chapter 255 Blizzard
"Province T has issued a blizzard warning. Many airports may experience delays or even cancellations due to extreme weather. Citizens are advised to travel safely."
The weather anchor's voice, as sweet as running water, streamed out from the TV.
Mu Yuan held the TV remote control and murmured softly, "I wonder if the clothes he brought are thick enough..."
-
Huo Min couldn't sleep well.
In the middle of the night, he developed a high fever again and was rushed to the hospital.
A strong antipyretic injection.
The fever has subsided temporarily.
He changed into a smart suit and continued to deal with the potential partners.
This negotiation was more difficult than usual.
After all, it is a battle between two strong opponents.
Both parties know that the other party is the best choice, but there is always one party that tries to argue and strive for the greatest benefit for itself.
time?
Huo Min has plenty now.
Go back and forth a few times.
Plus a 3% profit.
The intention of cooperation has almost taken shape.
The remaining finishing work will be left to the elite team he brought with him to complete.
As for him, he asked the hotel chef, who was used to making spicy food, to make a bowl of clear soup noodles.
If you ask a chef who is not experienced in cooking, the food will naturally not taste good.
But Huo Min had no energy to be picky due to his persistent illness.
At the very least, light, hot food can make the stomach feel better.
After finishing a bowl, tiny beads of sweat appeared on the tip of his tall nose, and his whole body was hot. He had no strength left.
He put his hands on the table and tried to stand up, but failed.
He was sitting, his straight posture supported by his wide suit.
He took out his cell phone and called Han Zhu: "I'm not feeling well, come to the first floor to pick me up."
When he was about to faint from the fever, he seemed to hear Mu Yuan's anxious voice coming from the other end of the phone. He thought it was an illusion caused by his longing for her day and night.
But he still wanted to talk to this imaginary Mu Yuan.
However, there is a desire but not strength.
His thin lips opened, but no words came out.
This time the fever was even worse than the last time in the office.
His fever persisted and his temperature once reached 39°C.
I couldn't eat anything and would vomit if I ate, which was extremely embarrassing.
The elite group asked Han Zhu: "What happened to Mr. Huo? Why is he so sick?"
Han Zhu shook his head and said, "It's probably because he's not used to the local climate."
Acclimatization?
Actually it’s a heart disease.
Huo Min didn't know how long he had slept, and he woke up intermittently for who knows how many times.
The curtains were drawn.
It was all white, and it looked so cold that it was unbearable to look at.
The hotel's general aromatherapy smells chemical.
It is far less pleasant than the faint rose scent on Mu Yuan.
Unfortunately, roses do not grow in the cold winter in Province T.
"Knock knock." There was a knock on the hotel door, followed by the sound of entering a password to unlock it.
He held his arms loosely in front of his eyes, his voice as hoarse as a broken violin string: "Has the contract been signed?"
Han Zhu came in with a bowl of porridge. "I signed last night, Mr. Huo. I brought some porridge. Do you want to drink it first, or wait until the young lady comes?"
Huo Min's heart was pounding, and he pulled away his hand that was covering his eyes: "Who's coming?!"
"Young Madam, she sent me the landing time in advance, and it's still half an hour away."
Huo Min dragged his weak body out of bed, still not forgetting to order Han Zhu: "Hurry up, my suit, my hairspray, my perfume, my razor."
Han Zhu hurriedly put down the porridge and went in and out, busy as a whirlwind.
Huo Min just stepped into the bathroom to shave.
The doorbell rang.
Before he could call out to Han Zhu, he ran over and opened the door.
"Huo Min?"
He heard Mu Yuanqingci's voice.
Not in dreams, nor in his fantasies or memories.
The lively, melodious, and full of life Mu Yuan was in his room.
Just as incredible as the production of roses on a cold winter day.
But she just showed up.
In the mirror, there was still foam on his chin, his hair was messy, his eyelids were drooping, and he looked stunned, unkempt, and not handsome at all.
He turned his head away out of inferiority.
But in the next second.
Mu Yuan came in, holding her face, turned her head and looked at her.
She had her hair tied in a ponytail and wore a plush, grass-green scarf that was very vibrant. Her almond-shaped eyes, wet with tears from the extreme cold weather, stared at him intently.
She still had the icy scent of snow on her body, but the soft hands that cupped his cheeks carried a warmth that was the opposite of the coldness.
She was in the winter snow.
Brings the warmth of summer.
He was stunned.
He didn't even remember what to do, his dark eyes just stared at her in fascination.
Seeing her put the back of her hand on his forehead, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her tone anxiously said: "You are still having a fever, why did you wake up?"
Her eyes swept over the razor in his hand: "Are you shaving before going out?"
He finally found his voice from his confusion: "No."
"Then why did you get up to shave?" She asked in a soft tone, which made people want to tell everything and no one could hide anything.
"Because I want to see you."
Mu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and her eyes gradually became sore.
I traveled across several provinces, dropped everything, and rushed to find him.
This kind of impulsive behavior.
It seemed like it was born just for Huo Min.
Or rather, face him.
Her acquired coldness and dull personality were completely ineffective on him.
The confusion and grievance caused by his cold attitude in recent days, and the worry and fear about him being too sick to speak, burst out at this moment.
She stood on tiptoe, hooked her arms around his neck, and began to sob.
Huo Min was still in a daze.
I have no idea why I made her cry.
But the warmth and softness that he could only hug in his imagination day and night came into his arms, bringing with it the rose scent that he had been dreaming about. Of course, Huo Min reached out to take it.
It's strange.
I cried while being held in her arms.
It's actually much more effective than those pills.
Right now.
He actually felt refreshed.
She cried for a long time, buried her head in the crook of his neck, and calmed down.
He lowered his eyes, which were as soft as the moonlight: "Are you done crying?"
"Yeah." She didn't look up, perhaps because she felt embarrassed, and responded in a depressed tone.
He patted her back gently and said softly, "Was it cold outside when you came?"
She let him go.
She glared at him with red eyes from crying: "No one is as cold to me as you are."
Huo Min felt extremely wronged.
If there is surveillance playback.
She would see that he picked up his phone countless times, but was unwilling to put it down because he was worried that she would file for divorce.
But at this moment, he didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject to something that would make her feel distressed: "I'm sick."
He has always been despicable.
Mu Yuan sniffed, and the thought of settling the score with him suddenly stopped: "You should have woken me up earlier that day, I would have helped you check if the clothes you brought were thick enough."
Huo Min curled his thin lips and kissed the corners of her tear-red eyes. The tears that had not yet dried slid between his lips and teeth. He touched them with his tongue and tasted the saltiness.
"You slept soundly, there's no need to wake you."
"But you woke me up anyway."
As soon as she got up, he stood in front of the mirror, didn't even let her tie her tie, and just left with her suitcase bag.
Very indifferent.
I didn't tell her when I was sick.
Until he was exposed and dialed her by mistake, and heard that obviously weak voice, God knows how anxious she was.
"You're just trying to torment me."
Meeting her almost resentful gaze, he laughed, his chest filled with uncontrollable joy: "I admit my fault, it's all my fault."
