marry?
Huo Qizhen felt that the term was quite unfamiliar because he had not thought about it before.
"I don't have a suitable marriage partner, forget it! I'll try another way."
"What other method is easier than this?"
Huo Qizhen was still unwilling, "What if it's an even more troublesome one?"
When the topic of trouble came up, Huo Tingzhen fell silent.
The Huo family conglomerate is a place that many women aspire to.
With his outstanding looks, Huo Qizhen attracted many women as soon as he entered puberty.
However, Kenneth Fok was extremely indifferent and did not accept any of the people's advances.
Some people had malicious intentions and secretly drugged him, thinking that once a man has experienced extreme pleasure, he will crave more.
At that point, capturing the person will be a piece of cake.
Fortunately, he was alert and avoided being caught off guard.
He finally found someone he liked, only to discover that the other person had researched his preferences and deliberately approached him.
The budding of love was cut short before it even began.
Later, he became like a perfect work machine, his personality grew increasingly indifferent, and he avoided those women like the plague.
Huo Tingzhen couldn't help but complain, "You're such a germaphobe. You're so old and you don't even have a marriage prospect. If you had gotten married earlier, you wouldn't be in such a passive position."
Huo Qizhen gave her a cool look and said, "You should go to work."
Huo Tingzhen reluctantly left the office.
After Jian Yu woke up, the new caregiver pushed her downstairs to bask in the sun.
Saying it was for sunbathing was actually a way of saying that Jian Yu was parked in the shade of a tree so that she could enjoy the birdsong and the fragrance of flowers and not be cooped up in the ward all the time.
She sat downstairs for an hour. Seeing that Jian Yu was in good spirits, the caregiver went upstairs to get her a water cup.
Jian Yu was immersed in the birdsong when a gust of wind blew the thin blanket off her legs.
Jianyu couldn't see it and didn't know where it had fallen, so he didn't intend to pick it up.
"Thump thump thump---"
Footsteps approached, and someone picked up her blanket and covered her legs again.
"Thanks!"
Jianyu pressed the blanket down with his hand to prevent it from falling off again.
"You're welcome!"
It's a very sweet voice, and more importantly, it sounds very familiar, like her former roommate.
My roommates who lived together in the graduate student dormitory for a year.
Jian Yu hesitated, wondering whether he should say hello.
Then, considering that they didn't know each other yet, it would be too abrupt to greet each other, so he didn't say anything.
Before she could speak, the other person asked, "Do you know how to get to Building 7?"
“…”, Jian Yu, “Sorry!”
"It's okay, I'll look again."
I don't know how the other person found me, but after about two minutes, they walked up to Jian Yu again.
Jian Yu then realized that she seemed to have a terrible sense of direction.
Jian Yu heard her dialing the phone, and the moment she answered, she was clearly excited, "Mingming, I'm at the hospital, you..."
"You're too late, we've already left. Go back by yourself!"
The other party didn't give her a chance to speak and hung up the phone immediately.
"I..."
Mu Nannan opened her mouth, feeling extremely wronged, "Gone?"
Jian Yu heard her dialing a phone again; this time it was her driver.
"I'm sorry, Miss Nan Nan. Miss Ming Ming asked me to take them home. I'll come back to pick you up in a bit."
"You knew I came to see Mingming. You just dropped me off at the hospital entrance, so why did you go back with Mingming?"
"That's right, as soon as you went in, Miss Mingming called me."
"Then why didn't you wait for me?"
"There's no room in the car... there's no more room."
Are there many people?
"Miss Mingming has a lot of things; the car is full."
"..." Mu Nannan lowered her head, her tone very disappointed, "Okay!"
Jian Yu was extremely embarrassed. Even though she couldn't see, she could still hear Mu Nannan's suppressed sobs.
Jian Yu took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Mu Nannan. "Don't be sad. My caregiver will be back soon. I'll have her take you out."
"..." Mu Nannan wiped her face with her sleeve, then smiled through her tears, "Thank you! The layout here is too complicated, I don't even know how to get out."
Mu Nannan jogged over to the stone bench next to Jian Yu and sat down before taking the handkerchief. "Thank you! How did you know I was lost?"
"Just a guess."
"hey-hey."
Mu Nannan had just chuckled twice when her phone rang.
She thought it was Mu Mingming calling her, and hurriedly pulled the number out of her pocket. When she saw the number, a hint of shyness flashed in her eyes.
"Hello?"
"Nan Nan, it's me, Lu Wei, I..."
Lu Wei?
That boyfriend who started a relationship with Mu Nannan and then abandoned her?
Jian Yu pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"I really like you, please be my girlfriend!"
Mu Nannan didn't say anything, and covered her face with her other hand.
"Nan Nan, I fell in love with you the first time we met. I was afraid you would look down on me because I was poor, so I didn't dare to talk to you. But since that day, I've dreamed about you every night. I was serious when I confessed to you before. You said you needed to think about it, and I promised to give you time. But I hope you will say yes to me and be my girlfriend."
Jian Yu, “…” It turns out that at this time, they had not yet started dating.
Mu Nannan comes from a wealthy family, but she is a little slow-witted. Her teachers and classmates often make fun of her. Her parents are busy with their business all year round and have no time to take care of her, so they leave her in the care of a nanny.
Grandma, citing her distrust of the nanny, forced Uncle's family to move into their villa. Mu Nannan's parents, who frequently traveled for work, felt reassured with them at home and acquiesced to this lifestyle.
All of the household expenses were covered by Mu Nannan's parents.
Although Mu Nannan was being paid by her brother and sister-in-law, her uncle's family did not take good care of her.
Mu Mingming even led the way in teasing her.
Her grandmother knew what they were doing, but the old woman favored her eldest granddaughter. In her eyes, Mu Mingming was smart and beautiful, while Mu Nannan was dull and slow, and there was no comparison between them.
This led to Mu Nannan being extremely timid and insecure.
When Lu Wei used sweet words to deceive her, she quickly fell for him.
Lu Wei comes from a poor family and pursues Mu Nannan for her family background and money. During their relationship, he always tries to trick Mu Nannan into giving him expensive gifts and money.
Mu Nannan dated him for several years and spent millions of her pocket money on him.
When Jian Yu and Mu Nannan became roommates, Mu Nannan's parents had just died in a car accident, her family's company had been seized by her uncle, and her uncle had cut off her allowance.
Upon learning that Mu Nannan was broke, Lu Wei didn't hesitate to kick this sucker to the curb.
Mu Nannan, already sensitive, became even more introverted, barely uttering a single word a day.
In addition, Jian Yu is also a quiet person, and the two of them only help each other by getting water and meals when the other is sick; otherwise, they are busy with their own things.
When school started the following year, Jian Yu didn't see Mu Nannan. She heard from the teacher that Mu Nannan had dropped out of school.
The reason is unknown.
It was the first time Mu Nannan had been confessed to. She looked left and right, unsure of how to respond.
"Nan Nan, it's okay if you don't agree. I won't give up. I will pursue you until you agree to be my girlfriend."
Mu Nannan lowered her head shyly, wanting to agree but feeling embarrassed.
In the end, preference prevailed, and she said, "I promise you."
Lu Wei exclaimed excitedly, "Really? That's great!"
"Beep beep beep---"
Mu Nannan stared at her phone screen, bewildered. "Hmm?"
"bite---"
Mu Nannan opened the WeChat voice message: "Nannan, I love you!"
【Nan Nan, my darling, I love you!】
Jian Yu rubbed the goosebumps on his arm. This Lu Wei is so damn stingy!
They'd rather not say more than a few words than waste phone bills; who knows, they're probably using someone's dorm room for free Wi-Fi right now.
