Chapter 729 He Doesn’t Want a Marriage

Huo Sijiao didn't expect Xie Xubai to say such a thing.

She thought he would at least reject Pei Chun with righteous words and insist on being on the same side as the Huo family.

It seems she was wrong.

Sun Weimeng was a little indignant: "Xie Xubai, do you want to marry into the Pei family? Do you want to marry Pei Chun, this stupid woman?"

"You are the fool! What's wrong with Xu Bai marrying me? We are a match made in heaven! It is natural for the Pei family and the Xie family to marry each other. Why would they choose outsiders like you?"

"cut!"

Sun Weimeng looked at Xie Xubai and asked, "Speak clearly, you want to marry her? Think carefully, marrying the wrong wife will ruin three generations!"

Even he understands this truth, so why doesn't Xie Xubai understand it?

Xie Xubai said calmly, "Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Sun. You may have misunderstood what I meant. I meant..."

He looked at Pei Chun with a somewhat cold look in his eyes, "The Pei family is good, but Pei Chun is not."

Pei Chun's smile froze on his face: "I can't? Why can't I do that?"

"You have a flawed character and low morals. If the Xie family marries you as their young mistress, the legacy left by their ancestors will be ruined."

"You...I..."

Pei Chun's face flushed, "Xie Xubai, you are kidding me!"

"Ms. Pei, I have never made any promises to you. Many people know that I am afraid of you. I have warned you countless times over the years to stay away from me."

"No!" Pei Chun tried his best to explain, "The old lady said that if you don't have a girlfriend by the end of the year, she will propose marriage! Are you, the Xie family, going to break your promise?"

"Of course not. It's not even the end of the year yet, how can I break my promise?"

Xie Xubai looked at Pei Chun and said, "No matter who you are with, I won't choose you. Especially compared with Miss Huo."

Hearing these words makes one's ears warm.

But this made Pei Chun even angrier: "Xie Xubai, do you really want to go against our Pei family? Don't refuse a toast and drink the penalty wine!"

"The Pei family is so overbearing that they want to forcibly snatch the men from the people?" Huo Sijiao couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Does the Pei family have everything they want? Anyone who doesn't obey is considered to be against you?"

"You have no right to speak!" Pei Chun was furious. He opened the bucket of boiling soup in his hand and was about to splash it towards Huo Sijiao.

Xie Xubai grabbed Pei Chun's hand, and the soup spilled onto his body and the ground, making a mess.

"Ningyuan, tell the security guards to come up and take her away. From today on, she is not allowed to enter our Yunqi Group."

"Yes, Mr. Xie."

Ning Yuan glanced at Huo Sijiao and thought that President Xie's goal had been achieved.

There is no need for Miss Pei to continue assisting.

"Xie Xubai! I hate you! You don't want to marry me, but I force you to marry me! I will fight you till death in my life, don't even think about getting rid of me."

The security guards arrived quickly, but Pei Chun was still screaming and cursing.

"Take it away."

"Thank you, you are so heartless!"

Pei Chun was taken away with his mouth covered.

Xie Xubai stretched out his hand to shake off the thick soup on his body, and Ning Yuan quickly handed him a towel.

After wiping it briefly, he took off his suit jacket and looked at Sun Weimeng and Huo Sijiao and said, "What do you two want from me?"

Huo Sijiao said softly, "I have something to tell you."

"Then let's go into the office first."

"Sun Weimeng, wait for me outside. I'll be out in a while."

Sun Weimeng nodded expectantly, "Go ahead."

The door is closed.

Sun Weimeng looked at Ning Yuan and said, "Is your President Xie interested in Huo Sijiao?"

Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't this obvious?"

"So you allowed Pei Chun to come and go as he pleased, not because you were forced into a corner by the Pei family, right?"

"How could our President Xie be a piece of shit?"

Sun Weimeng suddenly realized: "Xie Xubai is using a self-torture tactic!"

These proud sons of the rich and powerful may look innocent, but they are full of evil intentions!

Not only Huo Xingzhou and Zhong Yi, even a handsome man like Xie Xubai is no exception!

"Young Master Sun, please be careful with your words. Our General Xie has a very good reputation. Why would he resort to such a trick?"

"It's a trap! It's a trap!"

Sun Weimeng felt as if his own cabbages had been eaten away.

Damn!

But Huo Sijiao has made up her mind and there is no turning back!

…

In the President's office.

Huo Sijiao looked around. This was not her first time in Xie Xubai's office.

The space is filled with a light scent of sandalwood, mixed with a hint of floral and fruity notes, which feels refreshing without being too heavy.

"Please take a seat."

Xie Xubai hung the clothes he had taken off aside, and some soup was smeared on his shirt.

Huo Sijiao sat on the sofa a little awkwardly.

She spoke righteously to Sun Weimeng in the car, but when she was in front of Xie Xubai, she didn't know what to say.

Xie Xubai poured her a cup of warm water and placed it in front of her, saying, "I remember that you don't like tea, and you don't like coffee very much. Drink some warm water first to moisten your throat."

Huo Sijiao's eyelashes fluttered slightly. She held up the cup of warm water with both hands, took two sips, and said, "Have you heard about the free clinic of the Chinese Medicine Association today?"

"I heard it wasn't going well."

Huo Sijiao was filled with righteous indignation: "The appearance of that man is definitely not accidental. There must be someone behind it. It's either the Lu family, the Zhong family, or the Pei family. They are all coming for my sister-in-law and the Huo family."

Xie Xubai knew more about the situation and said, "Perhaps the Lu family and Zhong Lingxiao have joined forces. There is nothing good for the Pei family to gain by intervening in this matter."

"Are you speaking for Pei Chun?"

Xie Xubai smiled and sat next to her. "No, I'm just talking about the facts."

Huo Sijiao took a sip of water and said, "Will the capital be in chaos from now on? Can your Xie family withstand the pressure from the Pei family? I've heard a lot of rumors recently, saying that your Xie family's business..."

"The Pei family is indeed a difficult problem. They want to force me to marry Pei Chun and draw a clear line with other families."

Xie Xubai spoke in an elegant and calm tone, without revealing any emotion.

Huo Sijiao didn't know what he was thinking.

Just ask: "Will you draw the line with my brother?"

"It depends on how deeply involved I am with the Huo family. Some relationships can never be clearly distinguished," he said with a hint of meaning.

Huo Sijiao lowered her eyes and held the water glass tightly with her fingers.

What does he mean?

Never mind.

She took a deep breath and looked at Xie Xubai and said, "I heard that when you were in Haicheng, you proposed to form an alliance with our Huo family. You wanted me to marry you at that time, right? Do you still think the same now?"

"no."

He said calmly.

Huo Sijiao's breath got stuck in her throat.

no?

"Xie Xubai, if you don't want to marry Pei Chun, you have to marry someone else! Am I not the best choice? You...you were at the Guan family wedding banquet that day..."

Xie Xubai took the cup of water from her hand and said helplessly, "Let me talk about this matter."

What he wants is no longer a marriage.
