Thinking of the group of people who were almost losing their minds just now, I couldn’t imagine that if he hadn’t been there, my wife would have been torn to pieces on the spot.
"I'm not that stupid. Of course I act this way because you're here." Shu Wan said in a cheerful tone.
Huo Zhengye's Adam's apple rolled. It felt so good to be trusted.
"To the state-owned restaurant?"
"As you say."
They were some distance away from the state-owned hotel, and as they walked over, passing through one street after another, someone suddenly called them.
Shu Wan turned around and couldn't help showing a look of surprise when she saw the person coming.
The person who called her just now was Wu Fenling.
Wu Fenling did not come alone, she was followed by Bai Qianrou, but Bai Qianrou's expression was full of reluctance.
"What a coincidence, I meet Captain Huo and Shu Wan here." Wu Fenling said in a flattering manner.
She heard that Huo Zhengye was about to be promoted, and she didn't want to offend him, and her son's marriage had already been arranged.
Huo Zhengye had a calm expression.
Shu Wan's smile faded, "I remember that we weren't in a relationship where we just greeted each other."
Wu Fenling kept smiling, not showing any embarrassment, "I was confused before and was bewitched by others. Please don't hold it against us."
Shu Wan narrowed her eyes. The "we" she was talking about included Bai Qianrou.
Doesn't this mean that Bai Qianrou was involved?
Bai Qianrou also understood what he meant, and her face immediately darkened, but for some reason she still said nothing.
"My son and her are getting married next week, and we came here specially to invite you to the wedding."
Wu Fenling pulled Bai Qianrou to her side, ignoring her pale face, "Qianrou, isn't that right?"
Bai Qianrou's face turned pale and her eyes unconsciously fell on Huo Zhengye. She was about to cry, as if she was being forced and wronged.
Shu Wan looked at Bai Qianrou's performance with amusement. Was she treating her as a transparent person?
I have to say Bai Qianrou’s acting is really good. How could she make tears well up in her eyes but not a single drop fall?
Was she trying to arouse Huo Zhengye's sympathy and make him abandon her, his wife of many hardships, in public and elope with her?
Shu Wan tilted her head and glanced at Huo Zhengye.
The man's expression was as hard as iron, and he showed no signs of wavering.
Very well, if he reveals even a hint of strange emotions, it's better not to have this man.
Shu Wan was daydreaming when she suddenly felt her palm being pinched.
Shu Wan turned her head to look at Huo Zhengye, and met his dark eyes, which were filled with a hint of uneasiness and worry.
Shu Wan smiled, and her facial features relaxed.
Seeing this, Huo Zhengye's expression relaxed, but he did not let go of Shu Wan's hand.
Bai Qianrou stared at the two people's clasped hands, as if she wanted to see a hole in them. She didn't understand why Huo Zhengye remained indifferent when she had already shown a begging look in her eyes!
He was even talking and laughing with Shu Wan. Could it be that he really fell in love with Shu Wan?
No, that's absolutely impossible, Bai Qianrou denied stubbornly!
"Brother Huo." Bai Qianrou spoke again, her voice was aggrieved and choked, but her eyes were full of affection.
Huo Zhengye's body stiffened, and then he began to get goose bumps all over his body.
It's disgusting.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Shu Wan was enjoying the show. She looked at him and her mouth moved a few times. Huo Zhengye saw clearly that it was the shape of "Brother Huo".
Huo Zhengye: ...
Why didn't he realize that Bai Qianrou had other intentions before?
In the past, he just treated it as a name and never took it seriously. But now when he heard it, he just felt disgusted and tried to avoid it.
