Chapter 261 He is a fierce horse, she is a little red apricot
It was Zhou Yu!
Shu Xue quickly put down the soup bowl, bent over and coughed: "Cough cough cough..."
The trachea was irritated and it would take some time for the bleeding to stop.
Qin Yuan quickly patted her on the back and handed her a tissue considerately: "Are you okay?"
Shu Xue took the tissue, wiped the corners of her mouth, and shook her head.
She yelled for a long time before she stopped. When she looked again, she could no longer find Zhou Yu.
Why is he here too?
Why does she feel guilty?
Qin Yuan continued, "Ms. Shu, do you have any other plans this afternoon? I have booked two movie tickets. Let's go to the movies together?"
He was very satisfied with Shu Xue, whether it was her appearance, family, or her connections.
Shu Xue hesitated for a while and nodded.
"Then you eat first, I'll go pay the bill." Qin Yuan was still graceful.
"I'm full too, let's go together. This meal is on me, and you'll treat me to a movie. I don't like taking advantage of others." Shu Xue still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and she made it clear that she was apart from Qin Yuan.
The average cost per person in this restaurant is not cheap.
Qin Yuan felt even more satisfied when he heard her say this.
In the past, most girls I went on blind dates with would never mention the issue of settling the bill.
But when they got to the cashier, they were told that the bill had already been settled.
"Excuse me, who settled the bill?" Shu Xue asked.
The waiter checked the signature sheet and said, "It's a Mr. Zhou."
It was Zhou Yu indeed!
Qin Yuan suddenly realized: "That Mr. Zhou is Mr. Huo's right-hand man. Mr. Huo must have instructed him to settle the bill. This is too embarrassing. I have to ask you to apologize for me and your friend."
"Qiao Xi is not a stingy person."
Shu Xue said absentmindedly, "Aren't we going to watch a movie? Let's go."
The blind date, which she had been looking forward to, became boring after she saw Zhou Yu.
…
the other side.
Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi returned to the president's office in Tianyuan Building.
The revolving restaurant is very close to here, just across two streets.
On the desk is a food delivery box exclusively for Jinling Hotel. Their food delivery utensils are all made of bamboo, and even the packaging boxes are made of bamboo. It looks very clean and classy.
Zhou Yu followed closely and walked in: "Why didn't you wait for me before eating? You left me alone to pay the bill. You are so heartless!
Sister-in-law, this is the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall from Jinling Hotel that Huo Er ordered for you. He knew you were free today and wanted to bring you over to work with him. "
Huo Xingzhou glanced at him and said, "Eating can't stop you from eating?"
"It's blocked! I'll get out of here right now!"
Zhou Yu took his lunch, walked out quickly and closed the office door thoughtfully.
Qiao Xi found his figure funny, "Mr. Zhou doesn't look sad at all? Shu Xue was obviously on a blind date, and he saw it too."
We were still in love last night.
She still blushes when she thinks of that scene.
"Maybe I've had so many girlfriends that I'm used to it." Huo Xingzhou stretched out his hand, his slender fingers against the green bamboo strips making them look even more jade-like. He opened the lid, took out the plate inside and placed it on the coffee table.
Qiao Xi wanted to get more information for her little sister, so she asked, "Has he had many girlfriends? How long was the longest one?"
Huo Xingzhou raised his eyes and noticed her thoughts. He took her hand and sat on the sofa and said, "Are you asking for Shu Xue?"
"No, I want to ask."
"The longest was three years, the shortest was a week."
This time is really hard to predict.
"Is he really not going to get married?" Qiao Xi felt that he and Shu Xue were a good match, and it was clear from Shu Xue's expression that she liked him. She said she wanted to break off the relationship with the scumbag, but she was still in contact with him yesterday.
"Don't waste time with him. Girls will suffer more." Huo Xingzhou advised, "Your friend must have thought it through before going on a blind date."
"I hope so."
Qiao Xi couldn't help but frown.
She always had a question in her mind: why doesn't Zhou Yu want to get married?
Huo Xingzhou reached out and rubbed her head and said, "Don't think about other men."
"I'm not thinking about it." Qiao Xi retorted in a low voice.
"Then why did you go on a blind date? And why are you still out there trying to attract other men?"
Qiao Xi tried to explain: "I have already told him that I am married, but he doesn't believe it."
She proved her innocence, her eyes bright and clear, "I won't tell others that I'm single."
She suddenly remembered something and asked, "Mr. Huo, why are you here?"
He must be very busy recently. I heard that it is difficult to handle orders from the Zhong family.
"Your friend sent me a message saying that I was poached." Huo Xingzhou put the bowl and chopsticks in front of her and served her a bowl of hot soup as usual.
When Qiao Xi looked at the soup, she was reminded of the morel soup in the restaurant.
Her eyes were filled with a faint smile: "What if I am not being poached, but I am cheating on you?"
"Then you, little red apricot..." He glanced at her casually, his voice cold, "You don't want to live anymore."
He placed the white porcelain spoon in her hand.
Qiao Xi's dense eyelashes drooped, and her pretty features exuded a strong sense of spring.
She gently took a sip of the delicious Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup. She would be amazed every time she drank this soup.
Her movements were graceful and rhythmic.
Following Huo Xingzhou, she also acquired some of the man's dignity and calmness.
“It tastes good.”
The afternoon sunshine fell on her with special comfort, and her eyes were like crescent moons.
Qiao Xi narrowed her eyes contentedly, like a little kitten.
"Then drink more. Although Aunt Qian's cooking skills are good, there is still some gap between her and the chef of Jinling Hotel." Huo Xingzhou bluntly exposed Aunt Qian's shortcomings.
Qiao Xi said with a smile: "Young Master Sun said that Aunt Qian can work as the head chef at Jinling Hotel."
The man opened his lips slightly and said, "He is the best at flattering people."
"Is it to flatter your horse? But it's not that easy to flatter Mr. Huo."
Qiao Xi teased sweetly, her clear eyes sparkling with beautiful ripples.
She had heard of the origin of “flattering”: in the Yuan Dynasty, when a rider encountered a fierce horse, he would pat the horse’s buttocks to make the horse feel comfortable.
Mr. Huo can be considered a top-notch spirited horse.
Huo Xingzhou raised his eyes and looked at her, with a hint of darkness in his eyes: "You try it, maybe you are different from others."
Qiao Xi's heart was pounding: "How dare I."
Huo Xingzhou lowered his eyes and said nonchalantly: "The horses are all yours. You can take pictures wherever you want. You can ride them however you want. Who can stop you?"
His words were spoken in a tender tone, hiding extremely obscure hints.
Qiao Xi was too dumbfounded to recover.
When he suddenly reacted, his face was red and his breathing was slightly disordered.
"Mr. Huo..." She lowered her head, her snow-white neck flushed with a faint pink.
How can this person call himself a horse!
Huo Xingzhou looked indifferent but extremely abstinent, and his voice deepened: "Qiao Xi, do you like riding horses?"
