World 1: The Damp Retired Third Generation X The Poor Little Colleague of the Former Female Lead 06



Chen Manzi was most pleased with Gu Huai's sweet words.

In his past life, Huo Hanting was clueless about romance and only knew how to use money to coax her and buy her love.

But Gu Huai is different. Gu Huai will take care of her, pay attention to her subtle emotional changes, and sense her little quirks and antics.

Although he was very restrained, he never dared to take things any further with her.

But Chen Manzi felt that Gu Huai respected her even more because of this.

"You don't need to question my feelings for you with such a question."

"Tch, you're just trying to flatter me."

"I mean it."

Chen Manzi gave a coquettish sigh.

Suddenly, Gu Huai's phone rang. Gu Huai glanced at it, then expressionlessly turned the phone screen face down on the table.

"What's wrong?"

"About work... Oh, by the way, you said Fu Yu works at Huo's, is she free lately? I have a project..."

"She's busy."

In their past lives, Gu Huai and Fu Yu had no interaction whatsoever. It must have been that they spent so much time together at work that Fu Yu was given an opportunity to take advantage of them.

She had to extinguish this tiny spark and completely cut off any chance of Gu Huai and Fu Yu having any contact.

Gu Huai belongs to her alone, and no one can take him away.

Chen Manzi pursed her lips meaningfully.

"Right now, Fu Yu's heart is probably entirely focused on Huo Hanting, so she doesn't have time to pay attention to you."

"Huh? Fu Yu and President Huo... Azi, you must be joking."

How could a woman like Fu Yu, who is plain-looking and has no background, possibly get close to Huo Hanting, a man of exceptional talent?

"That's not necessarily true."

Chen Manzi glanced at the time on her phone, then took Gu Huai's hand. "Baby, the movie is about to start. Let's go see it quickly."

After saying that, without even checking whether Gu Huai had eaten a bite, she pulled him up and headed towards the movie theater on the top floor.

Fu Yu came out after taking a shower and saw the text message from Chen Manzi.

"Sorry, I've been really busy lately and haven't had a chance to call you back. I'll treat you to dinner when you get back from your business trip~heart"

Chen Manzi was in a good mood, probably because she felt that with Fu Yu as a scapegoat, she could completely get rid of Huo Hanting.

Should we remind her?

Gu Huai is not as easy to control as he seems on the surface...

After reading the original owner's memories, Fu Yu discovered some very interesting things.

She subconsciously stroked the eighteen seeds she had bought at the temple that day.

Huh?

Where did it go?

In the next room, Huo Hanting held a bracelet that emitted a faint sandalwood scent in his palm.

The veins on his hands, with their distinct knuckles, were bulging from the excessive force, and the round beads were embedded in his flesh.

It doesn't hurt; you can even feel a slight pleasure.

Something seems to be wrong with him.

He found the bracelet that Fu Yu had accidentally lost, but instead of returning it to her immediately, he took it and put it in his pocket.

He wanted more than just a bracelet.

He wanted to possess everything related to Fu Yu.

He was obsessed with breaking into Fu Yu's life and becoming a part of her.

Therefore, he saved the exhibition from almost going out of business due to funding problems. He deliberately filled in only Fu Yu's and his name on the business trip project list, and even arrived in Yaocheng ahead of time, just to visit the most efficacious temple in the area with Fu Yu.

The assistant said that men and women who pray here will all find their soulmates and become a couple.

When Fu Yu held three sticks of incense and made a sincere wish, Huo Hanting neither looked at the Guanyin statue high above nor lit the incense in his hand.

A dark, scarlet gaze fell upon Fu Yu.

He is not superstitious.

He simply wanted to blaspheme his god in the safest and most discreet way possible in this noisy, unnoticed place.

He's gone mad.

It must be.

The phone kept vibrating, and Fu Yu's voice flowed into Huo Hanting's heart like sweet spring water.

"Mr. Huo, I've lost my bracelet, do you have any...?"

Fu Yu's original plan today was to take the opportunity to get closer to Fu Yu and increase Fu Yu's favorability.

As a result, whenever she got close to Huo Hanting, his favorability towards her would skyrocket.

Why is the development not quite as expected?

How can I easily increase the affection level of the legendary SSS-level romance target?

Fu Yu was puzzled, but kept getting closer to him.

She bought this bracelet after Huo Hanting glanced at it.

She was thinking of giving it to Huo Hanting to boost his favorability.

"It's with me, I'll give it back to you."

Huo Hanting clenched the bracelet, as if using it to grip Fu Yu's wrist.

Previously, Huo Hanting did not believe in love at first sight, let alone love itself.

Before she died, his mother held his hand and used her last bit of strength to tell him.

One day, he will meet a girl who haunts his dreams, keeps him awake at night, enters his dreams, and captures his soul.

If you meet her, hold on tight.

Huo Hanting didn't take it seriously until now...

Fu Yu pushed open the door, and Huo Hanting stood in the doorway, his brows furrowed in a deep expression.

"Mr. Huo."

Huo Hanting opened his hand, and the eighteen-bead bracelet lay in his palm.

The marks left by the round beads have not yet disappeared, and they are flushed red like rubies.

Fu Yu instinctively reached out to take it, but Huo Hanting took the opportunity to grab her hand.

Hold on tight.

Let's get married.

Huo Hanting, who could discuss more than a dozen billion-dollar deals without blushing or his heart racing, was now acting like a boy experiencing his first love, bypassing ambiguity, dating, and intimacy.

All he wanted was for Fu Yu to become his lawfully wedded wife.

The only woman in his life.

He doesn't understand what love or liking is.

But from the moment he first saw Fu Yu, his soul, his body and mind seemed to be completely occupied by this woman.

He would shamelessly dream of being intimate with her, and he would despicably access the security camera footage of her bachelor apartment, repeatedly watching the surveillance videos of her going to and from get off work every day, and even memorizing her clothes and habits.

She's left-handed but prefers to carry things with her right hand, and her favorite foods are chocolate milk and Portuguese egg tarts...

He was poisoned by a drug called Fu Yu.

He knew that this crazy act would definitely frighten Fu Yu.

He had to pretend to be a normal person and approach them as a normal person.

Husband, husband.

Nothing could make him stand beside her more openly than this identity.

Huo Hanting's brilliant mind raced as he began to devise various arguments to persuade Fu Yu.

Whether it's coercion, bribery, or even... seduction...

Unexpectedly, Fu Yu took a step back and said, "Come in and let's talk."

"I can marry you, but you have to agree to a few conditions."

"good."

Huo Hanting agreed without hesitation.

"Aren't you going to hear the terms first?"

"I never haggle in business."

"This is my first requirement: you must wait for me to finish speaking and you cannot make decisions for me without my consent."

Huo Hanting's Adam's apple bobbed.

He thought she wanted money or power.

"Anything else?"

"Secondly, you are my person, and everything should be based on my feelings and experiences."

"third……"

Fu Yu lifted Huo Hanting's chin, "I'll set the rules between us."

Fu Yu knows nothing about love; in her previous mission, she was a dog trainer in the cyber world.

The training logic for men and dogs should be similar.
