Chapter 610 You Have No Choice, 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 neither can I."
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 outside the family and can only find a son-in-law. And the son-in-law cannot have any connection with other families, let alone be bribed.
And Shen Xuanzhi needs revenge!
Guan Jingtan looked at his tense body and said, "I'll give you another week to think about it. You still have time to regret it. After a week, it will be just as my grandfather said, and there will be no turning back."
…
In the night.
A black luxury car was driving on the highway towards the imperial city.
Sun Weimeng was arranged to sit in the passenger seat, observing the man and woman behind him through the rearview mirror. He couldn't stop talking and couldn't help asking, "Was Zhong Yi really caught cheating? Was Lu Yingxue disfigured? I actually missed such a big 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 again, "Master Xie, do you know what the relationship is between Shen Xuanzhi and Guan Jingtan? Huo Sijiao was so fierce just now that he didn't let me ask. I think they are not simple people. I also 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 at the beginning? Don't you want to know why they got together? Shen Xuanzhi looks like a blockhead, he definitely doesn't have the ability to do romance!"
Sun Wei's voice was louder than hers, and the two of them were as childish as three-year-old children.
Ning Yuan, who was driving, chuckled and said with Xie Xubai's tacit approval, "Young Master Sun, Miss Huo. In fact, the Guan family wants to recruit a son-in-law. If Miss Guan gets married, it means she will be dependent 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 recruit a son-in-law..."
Sun Wei was so shocked that he could not speak coherently: "Looking for a son-in-law... Is Shen Xuanzhi..."
"Mr. Guan does have such a plan. 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."
"It turns out that Shen Xuanzhi has become someone's son-in-law! Why is he like this?"
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.
Maybe, he really likes women like Guan Jingtan.
As a woman, seeing Guan Jingtan's beauty will make you tremble with fear. What man would not be moved?
Even the proud Shen Xuanzhi couldn't help but be impressed.
She, Huo Sijiao, is a big fool, 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 bottle cap and put it in her hand.
Huo Sijiao raised her eyes and looked at him and said, "Thank you."
Why is it like coaxing a child?
She recognized it; it was her favorite brand of juice, but she had never told Xie Xubai about it.
It's a coincidence.
Sun Weimeng felt unbalanced: "Can only beautiful women enjoy this juice? Can't I?"
He wants everything.
Ning Yuan simply lowered the front and rear bumpers of the car to block out the sound of Sun Weimeng's shouting.
The car suddenly became quiet.
Huo Sijiao sniffed and said with a hint of unconsciousness, "He's so noisy."
"Sun Shao is easygoing and lively."
Huo Sijiao lowered her head and pursed her lips, a smile forming on her lips. The faint scent of sandalwood from her suit jacket made her feel calm.
It feels like being surrounded by Xie Shubai.
"Mr. Xie, can you sell your sandalwood? It smells nice and soothing."
“I can’t sell them, but I can give you some.”
"How can I be so embarrassed..."
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 me if they can get in through the back door. Miss Huo, can you give me a back door?"
His handsome and elegant face seemed to be a little distressed. "It's really hard to deal with the female elders in the family."
"Oh." Huo Sijiao opened her lips slowly, "No problem, I will send some reservation cards on the opening day, you can give them out."
She also didn't ask why Xie Xubai's relatives and friends all wanted to find him to open the back door.
Huo Sijiao's throat rolled slightly, and she raised her eyes to scan his profile.
This face is actually quite superior, a little less cold than her brother's, and looks quite gentlemanly.
Chi!
The car braked suddenly.
A cat ran by the roadside.
The juice in Huo Sijiao's hands spilled out, and she fell into Xie Xubai's arms out of inertia.
The purple juice spread all over him, and the white shirt was completely ruined. 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.
That 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 very calm, he took out a tissue and slowly wiped the juice off his body. But the grape juice was stuck on his body and could not be wiped off.
It looks very obvious.
Huo Sijiao blushed and said, "I'll compensate you with a new suit tomorrow."
"good."
Xie Xubai was not polite either, "I don't have any plans tomorrow, I will be at the office. If it's not too much trouble, you can send it to my office."
"Uh-huh."
Huo Sijiao nodded randomly, her fingertips still feeling the warmth from 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 unbearable 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, I was careless just now... 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 she was escaping for her life.
Xie Xubai watched her hurriedly leaving through the car window, then looked away and glanced at her lower body.
He is not as calm as he appears to be.
