Chapter 610 You have no choice, and neither do I
Shen Xuanzhi's voice was very light: "No regrets."
When he came to the engagement party, he guessed that Huo Sijiao might also show up, but he still chose to show up with Guan Jingtan.
Guan Jingtan looked at him and said, "Then you might miss a very good girl. Shen Xuanzhi, there is indeed hatred in your life that you cannot overcome, but there are also people who truly love you."
Shen Xuanzhi turned to look at her and said, "You can't choose, and I can't choose either."
The Guan family is a piece of fat meat among the powerful families in the imperial capital, and Guan Wenli is still a fool.
The only hope is Guan Jingtan. She cannot marry out and can only find a son-in-law. And the son-in-law cannot have any connection with other families, and it is impossible for him to be bribed.
And Shen Xuanzhi needs revenge!
Guan Jingtan looked at his tense body and said, "I'll give you another week to think it over carefully. You still have room to regret, but after a week, it will be like my grandfather said, there will be no turning back."
…
In the night.
A black luxury car was driving on the highway to the urban area of the imperial city.
Sun Weimeng was placed in the passenger seat, observing the man and woman behind him through the rearview mirror. His mouth couldn't stop, and he couldn't help asking, "Did Zhong Yi really get caught cheating? Will Lu Yingxue be disfigured? I actually missed so much drama!"
He just went to the garden to exchange feelings with the young lady.
I didn't expect so many things to happen at a banquet.
It's a pity that I didn't show up at the scene to eat the melon.
He smacked his lips and asked, "Mr. Xie, do you know what the relationship is between Shen Xuanzhi and Guan Jingtan? Huo Sijiao just now fiercely refused to let me ask. I think they are more than ordinary. I even heard some gossip."
Huo Sijiao said angrily, "Sun Weimeng, can't you just shut your mouth?"
"Huo Sijiao, don't you want to know? Who was chasing after Shen Xuanzhi back then? Don't you want to know why they got together? Shen Xuanzhi is obviously a blockhead, he definitely doesn't have any romantic potential!"
Sun Weimeng's shouting was louder than hers, and the two of them were as childish as three-year-old children.
Ning Yuan, who was driving, burst out laughing and said with Xie Xubai's tacit approval, "Young Master Sun, Miss Huo. In fact, the Guan family is looking for a son-in-law. If Miss Guan marries, it would be like relying on others. If she wants to rely on someone, she should choose the Zhong family. But Young Master Zhong is already engaged, so the only way left is to find a son-in-law..."
Sun Weimeng was so shocked that he was incoherent: "Recruiting a son-in-law... Is Shen Xuanzhi..."
"Mr. Guan does have such plans. In fact, many years ago, the Shen family and the Guan family in the imperial capital had a good relationship. I heard that there were even rumors of a marriage alliance back then."
"So Shen Xuanzhi has become someone's son-in-law! Why did he do that?"
Why?
Huo Sijiao in the back seat lowered her eyes, looking a little lonely.
Naturally, the Guan family and the Lu family are at odds, and Shen Xuanzhi can use the power of the Guan family to attack the Lu family.
Perhaps, he really likes women like Guan Jingtan.
As a woman, seeing Guan Jingtan's beauty would make you feel ashamed. Which man would not be moved?
Even the proud Shen Xuanzhi couldn't help but be impressed.
She, Huo Sijiao, is a big fool and the biggest joke!
Huo Sijiao's eyes were red.
Xie Xubai beside her gently opened the car refrigerator, took out a bottle of grape juice, unscrewed the cap and put it in her hand.
Huo Sijiao looked up at him and said, "Thank you."
Why is it like coaxing a child?
She recognized that this was the brand of juice she liked to drink, but she had never told Xie Xubai about it.
It's a coincidence.
Sun Weimeng felt unbalanced: "Is this juice only enjoyed by beautiful women? Don't I have it?"
He wants everything.
Ning Yuan simply lowered the front and rear fenders of the car to block out Sun Weimeng's noisy voice.
The car suddenly became quiet.
Huo Sijiao sniffed and said with a hint of unconsciousness, "He's so noisy."
"Young Master Sun is easygoing... and lively."
Huo Sijiao lowered her head and pursed her lips, a smile forming at the corners of her mouth. The faint scent of sandalwood wafted from her suit jacket, calming her down.
It feels like being surrounded by Xie Xubai.
"Mr. Xie, can you sell your sandalwood? It smells so good and soothing."
"I can't sell them, but I can give you some."
"Then how can I have the nerve to..."
Xie Xubai's eyes flashed, and he looked at her snow-white neck and said, "Your beauty salon has become popular before it even opens. Many relatives and friends are asking if they can get me in through the back door. Miss Huo, can you open a back door for me?"
His handsome and elegant face seemed to be a little distressed. "The female elders in the family are really difficult to deal with."
"Oh." Huo Sijiao slowly opened her mouth, "No problem, I'll send some appointment cards on the opening day, you can just give them out."
She didn't bother to find out why Xie Xubai's aunts and uncles all came to him for help.
Huo Sijiao's throat rolled slightly, and she raised her eyes to glance at his profile.
This face is actually quite superior, a little less cold than her brother's, and looks very gentlemanly.
Chi!
The car suddenly braked.
A cat ran by the roadside.
The juice in Huo Sijiao's hand spilled out, and she fell into Xie Xubai's arms due to inertia.
The purple juice spread all over him, ruining his white shirt. The juice was still dripping down, soaking the man's suit pants.
Huo Sijiao's hands reacted faster than her brain, and she quickly grabbed a tissue and reached out to wipe it, "Are you okay? I..."
She paused and abruptly withdrew her hand.
Her pretty face was as red as a monkey's butt, and she really wanted to slap herself in the face.
Where are you touching?
She threw the whole pack of tissues next to Xie Xubai and said, "You... wipe it yourself."
Xie Xubai was quite calm, pulling out a tissue and slowly wiping the juice off his body. However, the grape juice, once on his body, could not be wiped off.
It looks very obvious.
Huo Sijiao's face flushed as she said, "I'll compensate you with a new suit tomorrow."
"good."
Xie Xubai was not polite either. "I don't have any plans tomorrow, so I'll be at the company. If it's not too much trouble, you can send it to my company."
"Uh-huh."
Huo Sijiao nodded randomly, her fingertips still retaining the warmth of his body and that inexplicable touch.
Crazy!
It’s all because of that wild cat that suddenly jumped out.
Huo Sijiao gritted her teeth, her face full of bitterness, hatred, and shame.
What would Xie Xubai think of her?
The car slowly drove to the Huo family's garden villa. Huo Sijiao waited until the car was stable before she mustered up the courage to speak: "Mr. Xie, what happened just now was an accident... Don't mind it."
Xie Xubai's eyes were calm. He turned to look at her and said, "What should I mind?"
"Nothing, I'm here! See you tomorrow!"
Huo Sijiao couldn't say those words at all. She opened the car door and ran out as if for her life.
Xie Xubai watched her hurriedly leaving through the car window, then looked away and down at her lower body.
He was not as calm as he appeared.
