iamond pendant on it.Joe Jingnian murmured in pain: "This is what she wore back then. After so many years, I didn't expect to see it again."Ho Shao-ting took the chain.He frowned slightly: that famili...Huoyunsi's request was very reasonable, and Anran couldn't find a reason to refuse.

But they had only just slept together last night.

It's just not comfortable.

Anran put on her shoes and walked toward the bedroom, saying, "I'm going to see Linxi."

As she passed the small dining table, she lowered her head and didn't even dare to look at Huo Yunsi... When she entered the bedroom, she realized her heart was beating wildly.

Lin Xi slept soundly.

He sat down calmly and looked at his son's sleeping face, feeling a sense of peace.

The bedroom door opened and Huo Yunsi walked in.

An Ran wanted to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything. With Aunt Lin still at home, she was afraid of making things awkward between them.

Ho Yuns thought walked to her side.

He leaned in slightly, almost touching her. But instead of being rough, he gently caressed Mo Linxi's cheek like she had done to him, warm and tender...

Occasionally, his long fingers would brush against hers.

Anran wanted to pull her hand back.

Huo Yunsi didn't stop her, he just chuckled lightly in her ear: "You slept with me all night last night, how come you have psychological burden now ...Last night An Tong wasn't someone who couldn't let go so easily!"

Anne's face was flushed.

But she wouldn't back down, retorting, "It's just a physical matter! Mr. Huo still cares about it."

Huo Yunsi actually nodded in agreement: "Yes! I miss it quite a bit."

His hot breath sprayed on her delicate ear, and he brazenly said, "We're both at that age, with needs, aren't we"

Anran did not expect him to be so blatant!

Of course she didn't want to, so she snorted softly: "Just wait and see!"

I thought he would be angry.

But Huo Yunsi wasn't angry at all. He straightened up and said, “Then I'll wait for General An's call anytime! ... Oh, General An is really different from before, his requirements are quite large.”

Anran angrily grabbed a pillow and threw it at him.

Huo Yunsi caught it with one hand, then looked at her like that, his eyes holding an undeniable clarity.

A'n calmly turned her face away.

Huo Yunsi lifted and lowered her hand gently, not forcing her any further. Just then, Lin's mother called them to dinner... Anran still wanted to watch Lin Xi, so Huo Yunsi lightly patted her back and said very softly, "Eat first! Lin Xi is already a few years old, he's not that fragile."

When she walked out, her head felt a bit dizzy.

Logically speaking, Huo Yunsi should be angry after the unpleasantness this morning. But why is he at her place now, eating with them

Ho Yunsi rarely stayed for dinner, so Lin's mother was very happy.

For a while, he was ladling soup, then serving rice, and then again, he brought over some grilled lamb chops.

Ho Yunsi glanced at An Ran, then smiled and said to Aunt Lin, "My body hasn't been feeling well lately, I was just thinking about making up for it!"

Lin Shen was very happy: “That’s right, everyone says mutton is good for winter tonic, but it's also good to replenish in spring! Mr. Huo, if you like it, eat more.”

Huo Yunsi nodded: "Thank you, Aunt Lin."

Auntie Lin was beaming with joy. As someone who had been there before, she could immediately tell that Mr. Huo was interested in Anran. She thought their relationship was over, but who knew things would take a turn for the better and blossom anew.

Compared to them, Anran was quite calm.

After dinner, Lin Xi hadn't woken up yet. Even as it neared nine o'clock, she still remained unconscious.

Seated on the sofa, working calmly, she closed her laptop and looked at Huo Yunshi who was watching TV... The TV was playing Tom and Jerry, oh, he's quite childish!

An Ran said softly, "It's getting late, you should go back!"

Huo Yunsi didn't cling on. He got up and looked at Lin Xi, took his coat and car keys, and was about to leave. An Ran followed him up, "I'll see you off!"

She changed her shoes, Huo Yunsi went downstairs first.

An Ran went downstairs, and Huo Yunsi leaned against the car smoking. He was tall and well-built. At this moment, his coat was thrown into the car, and he only wore a dark gray shirt and casual pants. Just looking at him was pleasing to the eye.

He gazed at An Ran in the dim light, "Is something the matter"

Anran lightly covered her collar with one hand, thought for a moment, and said, "In the future, when you look at Linxi, could you maybe change it to Saturday or Sunday I can send him over to you"

Huò Yunsī smiled: "Are you not allowed to visit him usually Afraid it would be troublesome"

Anran didn't want to argue with him.

She gave up: “Fine, come over if you want!”

Huo Yunsi extinguished his cigarette, opened the car door and was about to get in when An Ran still couldn't help but speak: "Huo Yunsi, what do you really want"

Huo Yuns thought for a moment, his hand resting on the car door, before asking her in return, "What do you think I want ... Anran, I felt pretty good last night."

After he finished speaking, he got into the car and drove away.

Anran stood there for a while before going back. At this moment, Linxi hadn't woken up yet.

Lin Shen took over a handful of melon seeds and whispered to her, "I think Mr. Huo is interested in you, but even if he is, we need to keep things clean! Has he broken things off with that Miss Sun"

"I don't know," said An Ran, shaking her head.

She said again, "I didn't think about the future, I just... with him..."

She wanted to say it wasn't suitable, but after last night, Auntie Lin knew, she lacked the confidence to speak.

What doesn't Lin Shen understand

She patted Anran's hand and smiled, "It's up to you! By the way, your older brother's business has been picking up lately. The boss I introduced him to last time really values him. This morning, he gave him another very profitable deal. Your older brother said this deal will earn him no less than seven figures... While he might be exaggerating a bit, it's not too far-fetched."

After asking, An Ran also thought it was quite reliable and was happy for Lin Bin.

……

Anran saw Huo Yunsi's thoughts, she thought he would pester her relentlessly, but in the next few days, he didn't appear again. Slowly, Anran put her mind at ease and focused on work.

The financing matter is urgent, and after two days of calm, I was just about to contact Mr. Xu.

But before that, Young Master Xu suddenly paid a visit.

An sat calmly in his office working. The secretary pushed the door open and whispered, "Mr. An, there's a Mr. Xu here who wants to have dinner with you."

Mr. Xu

An Ran lightly turned the pen, guessing the other party's identity. Then, she closed the file: "Tell him to wait in the reception room."

The secretary nodded and left.

An Ran did a simple search on the information about Mr. Xu and, after preparing briefly, went to meet him. Opening the reception room, she saw that it was indeed Mr. Xu's son. He was dressed less formally today than the previous day, trying to appear younger.

An Ran gave a business-like smile: "Mr. Xu, you came over. Why didn't you call first so I could make preparations"

Xu Gongzi got up and smiled faintly, "I'm afraid if I make an appointment in advance, you won't see me."

He didn't call her "Ms. An" or "General An," but simply "you"... which seemed a bit too intimate.

An Ran was taken aback for a moment, but then she smiled calmly and said, “How could that be! You are Mr. Xu's son, and therefore a distinguished guest of our Gu Group. There’s no reason not to welcome you.”

She practiced Tai Chi like that, but Xu Gongzi still steered the conversation in a different direction.

He whispered, "Anran, I'm not here for business, and I'm definitely not my father's employee. I just came to ask you out for a meal! So, could we please not talk about work"tupid.She heard the woman call him Shao Ting. She thought that besides their work relationship, the woman at least had feelings for him. And this kind of feeling was also tacitly approved by Huo Shao...
