Chapter 37 A Transaction
Fu Sheng is a very famous bar. It is a cafe during the day and a bar after 7pm.
As soon as Huo Xiang arrived, he received messages from Qiao An and Zhuang Yan. They are both stuck in traffic, so please be patient.
So he didn't go to the private room that Qiao An had reserved, but found a corner on the first floor, ordered a drink and listened to music.
Not long after he sat down, someone sat opposite him.
"Handsome guy, are you alone?"
Huo Xiang glanced at it casually and said, "Waiting for a friend."
"Why don't we talk first?" the woman said with a smile.
Huo Xiang continued to look down at his phone: "I don't know him, there's nothing to talk about."
"How dare you say you don't know me?!" The woman slammed the wine glass in her hand onto the table with a bang.
Huo Xiang finally put away his phone and looked up: "What do you want to talk about? Miss Bai."
Bai Xinxin's eyes flashed with surprise, and then she said sarcastically: "You are really born with a good appearance. No wonder Yi Qian is so obsessed with you."
Huo Xiang remained calm: "What do you want to say?"
"It's nothing. Since we met here, let's get to know each other! Let me see how an orphan with no power and influence could get close to the heir of the Yi family. Tell me, how much money did they give you?" Bai Xinxin adjusted her skirt and leaned back in the chair with her elbows folded.
Huo Xiang said: "Eight million."
Bai Xinxin snorted coldly: "Eight million bought you off? Who are you kidding! Your restaurant cost at least 100 million!"
Huo Xiang thought to himself that Bai Xinxin actually knew quite a lot, she was indeed a real wealthy family in South City.
Bai Xinxin raised her eyebrows and said, "So you accepted the money from the Yi family openly, but secretly communicated with Yi Qian?"
Huo Xiang said expressionlessly: "Miss Bai, I admire your way of thinking, but it's a pity that you think too much.
Since you recognize me, you must have heard something. But I don't want to get involved in your wealthy families' affairs. Since we meet here, I will tell you everything so that you won't hear anything from others. ”
Under the dim light, Huo Xiang glowed white. When he wasn't smiling, his eyes were filled with a hint of melancholy. Like a lonely prince, with absolutely no sense of aggression.
Not only does it make people unable to hate them, but it also gives rise to a sense of pity.
Bai Xinxin felt exactly the same way at the moment. She bit her lips weakly and told herself not to be misled by the goblin. I want to hear what he has to say!
"First of all, Yi Qian and I have severed our friendship and we have no further contact.
Second, the relationship between Yi Qian and I was that of a sponsored person and a sponsor. I did have some unrealistic thoughts about him, but recently I have come to realize that he and I are not the same kind of people.
Third, I had no idea you existed before you got engaged to Yi Qian. That day, it was because Yi Qian’s great aunt came to me and gave me money to stop bothering him that I heard about you for the first time and saw you from the surveillance video she provided. I took the money that day, moved away, and deleted all his contact information.
Fourth, I only met him once after that, which was the night he was admitted to the hospital. I was having dinner with my friends and ran into him by chance in a club.
He did say something to keep me and that he liked me, but I refused and we fell out. His injuries were also inflicted by my friend on my behalf.
Fifth, we have known each other since we met, everything has been clean. There was no physical intimacy, no holding hands, hugging, kissing, or going to bed.
Sixth, a new suitor has appeared around me. He has a noble character and treats me much better than Yi Qian. I have already started to get to know him.
That's all.
Miss Bai, the reason I'm telling you all this is that I don't want to have anything to do with people like you anymore. No matter what the purpose of your engagement is, and what happens afterwards, it has nothing to do with me. ”
Seeing Huo Xiang say so much, always calmly and even downplaying it, Bai Xinxin suddenly realized that this was a disguised reminder.
Remind her that Yi Qian is unreliable and is suspected of being promiscuous and two-timing.
What's even more disgusting is that it may be a conspiracy by gays to get married, have children and make money!
She changed her gaze and looked Huo Xiang up and down.
After a long while, he asked, "You are not saying that because you are turning love into hate, right?"
Huo Xiang was not angry either. While telling Qiao An and Zhuang Yan about his position in the group, he said nonchalantly: "As long as you can get rid of me, you can think whatever you want!"
Bai Xinxin suddenly drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, sneered and said: "Do you know how I know you? I heard the conversation between Yi Qian and his mother with my own ears!
That scumbag, on the one hand, is thinking about you, and on the other hand, he wants my Bai family to protect him. Even if the head of the Yi family abandons him one day, he can still use my Bai family to gain a foothold in South City.
Yi Qian plays with our Bai family in the palm of his hand, and still wants to get something for nothing. Do you think there is such a good thing in the world?
What is the status of my Bai family? If my father didn’t love me...how could Yi Qian want to climb up to our family?
He wants to eat P! ”
Huo Xiang listened quietly, and Bai Xinxin's words confirmed his previous guess.
When the Yi family encounters a crisis, the head of the Yi family will definitely put pressure on Yi Qian. Yi Qian and his mother realized that their position was too unstable, so they turned to the powerful Bai family.
Bai Xinxin is an only child, and they are tied together. The Bai family will definitely help the Yi family overcome the difficulties. With this Yue family, Yi Qian's status in the Yi family has been further elevated.
Even if he is rejected by the Yi family one day, he will not be in such a miserable state as long as the Bai family is around. If Bai Xinxin gave birth to a child, maybe he could even gain status by relying on the child...
As for the Bai family, choosing Yi Qian was definitely marrying down. They were able to hit it off immediately, and naturally they had their own considerations, but Huo Xiang was unaware of the inside story.
But one thing is for sure, it is because Yi Qian is easy to control.
Therefore, this marriage was originally a transaction.
However, Yi Qian concealed the important fact that he was gay, so his motives seemed quite impure.
When Huo Xiang said those things to Bai Xinxin, she actually had no idea how much she knew about Yi Qian. After all, the powerful family is there, and they must have known Yi Qian's sexual orientation through some means, and they don't mind at all. It is not impossible for them to get what they want.
So when he was stating the facts, he "inadvertently" mentioned that Yi Qian still wanted to keep him and confessed his love to him.
If the Bai family already knew that Yi Qian was gay, then he was not hiding anything.
If they still don't know, he has given the Bai family a reminder.
Huo Xiang didn't want to make friends with a wealthy family like the Bai family, but he also didn't want to make enemies with them.
He doesn't have any golden fingers and he really has no power or influence. Unless necessary, he didn't want to become an enemy with anyone, let alone a wealthy family.
After all, he still has to live in South City, and he doesn't want his friends, restaurants, and steamed bun shop chains to be innocently implicated in the feuds of the wealthy families.
Of course, he didn't want to take revenge on Yi Qian. It was over, but he couldn't just watch Bai Xinxin being kept in the dark.
Whoever creates the cause should bear the consequences!
As Bai Xinxin spoke, her voice suddenly choked up.
"I am an unfilial daughter, my parents did everything for me...that Yi Qian...he is a bastard, he deserves death!
I was blind...I was deceived by his appearance...I deserve it..."
Huo Xiang took a look and thought, could she be... drunk?
Then her alcohol tolerance is really comparable to his.
