But unfortunately, some people fell for her tricks.
Playing?
They need to have their lives to play.
"Brother, you don't know, I think my wound reopened just now when I was running away from them. It hurts so much. Can you help me check it?" Xingkong hung on Huo Siye's body, rubbing her forehead against his neck, pitiful and helpless while acting cute.
Huo Siye took a deep breath, knowing that she was probably faking it, but still couldn't help feeling nervous. He naturally lightened the arm that was holding her tail, "Okay."
Xingkong smiled contentedly.
Clear and coquettish.
Like Cupid's arrow, it drew a deep and unconscious ripple in his heart.
He took another deep breath, then pressed it down fiercely, regaining some of his sanity.
The voice that came out was still somewhat hoarse and suppressed, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Shen Xingkong smiled with her eyes and opened her eyebrows. Her soft and white fingers wiped across his lips, intentionally or unintentionally, "I know~ I know Brother will protect me."
Huo Siye nodded, turned around and walked towards the car while holding her.
"Clean up the scene."
These four words were said by Huo Siye.
Bai Ning was about to nod, but then heard his boss's deep voice, "If the cleanup is not done well, deduct two years of year-end bonus."
Bai Ning, "..."
What a foolish ruler!
Lust clouds the mind!
...
In the car.
Shen Xingkong lightly bit her pink lips and secretly glanced at Huo Siye with her eyes.
He seemed very busy.
As soon as he got on the car, he put on his glasses and opened his laptop. His slender fingers typed on the keyboard non-stop, occasionally answering a phone call and fluently speaking various foreign languages that she couldn't understand.
Shen Xingkong couldn't help but wonder, what happened to him after she died in her previous life? Did he see through Huo Qingyan's scheme? Did he avenge her and their child?
Thinking about everything in her previous life, Xingkong felt a sourness in her heart and wanted to cry. But she couldn't cry. In this life, she wasn't the weak and helpless person who would be bullied and not fight back. Instead, she would reflect on whether she did something wrong.
"Brother." Huo Siye's hand stopped typing the email, and he turned his head slightly. His eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses had a curious look as he looked at her.
"I will protect you." Shen Xingkong rubbed against him and slowly raised three fingers under his gaze. "I swear, I will protect you and not let anyone bully or deceive you."
Huo Siye couldn't describe his current feelings. For the first time in his life, someone other than his mother said they would protect him. What kind of feeling was that? Surprise? Disbelief? Amusement? But he couldn't deny that under the complex emotions, there was a feeling of happiness and anticipation.
"Believe me, after I become stronger bit by bit, I will definitely protect you!" Huo Siye looked at her, seeing the unyielding and stubbornness in her eyes.
And be serious.
She was serious.
Huo Siye chuckled and tapped her forehead with his fingers, "Little crazy girl, don't be too arrogant. Besides, I don't need you to protect me."
Although he was officially a bastard, everyone knew that he was the most favored son of Old Master Huo, and it was also understood that he would inherit the entire Huo family in the future.
How many people were following him and protecting him?
How could an 18-year-old girl be responsible for his protection?
But Huo Siye knew very well that her words had truly pleased him.
Shen Xingkong knew that he didn't believe her, but it didn't matter.
Her rebirth had triggered the butterfly effect, and many things had changed.
In the previous life, their ending was tragic.
In this life, she would work hard with Even if he didn't fall in love with her, she would still protect him and not let Huo Qingyan hurt him in the slightest.
...
Ruyi Residence.
Xingkong got off the car first, ran to Huo Siye's side, quickly opened the door, and looked at him with a pleasing expression, "Brother, I invite you to dinner."
Huo Siye closed his computer, took off his glasses, crossed his long legs, and got out of the car with a graceful movement. He tidied his suit collar and buttoned up the loose buttons.
He glanced at Xingkong in a slow and orderly manner.
As soon as she smiled, he knew she was up to something.
This crazy little girl never gave him a moment of peace.
"Brother, I heard from Shen Xinai that the Huaiyang cuisine here is particularly authentic.
especially the squirrel mandarin fish, which is delicious."
" You heard of it from Shen Xinai?" His face darkened. "You've never been to this restaurant before?"
Xingkong's small face drooped as she shook her head. "No. They never take me when they go out to eat."
Huo Siye's expression grew even colder.
He couldn't help but think back to when he had first arrived at the old Huo residence as a child. At that time, he had just been brought back by Old Master Huo. Although Second Madam and Third Madam fought tooth and nail, they strangely shared a tacit understanding when it came to ignoring and tormenting him. In front of Old Master Huo, they treated him extremely well, as if they wanted to bring the moon from the sky to him. But as soon as Old Master Huo turned his back, they quickly changed their attitudes and either ridiculed or bullied him. During meals, they made him sit in the corner and wear clothes that others had discarded. During holidays or banquets, they never took him with them. He spent countless long and fearful nights alone, feeling forgotten and abandoned. He could empathize with Xingkong's despair.
"No wonder you're so thin," he said.
"Can I eat a little more today then?" Xingkong asked hopefully.
"You can," he replied.
"Thank you, big brother!" Xingkong was so happy she could almost jump up and down.
Huo Siye smiled a little at her childishness. She was so easily pleased by food.
"Big brother, I also want to eat crab meat lion's head, Wensi tofu..." Xingkong continued to list off the dishes she wanted.
"You can," he said.
"I also want to eat Dong Ru zhu's meat and drink her blood!"
Huo Siye"....."
"When will this people be sent to Dong Ru zhu ".Bai Ning got off the car from behind and walked up Xingkong to ask.
Shen Xingkong thought for a moment, "You go find a red silk cloth and tie them up, remember to tie a beautiful bow. If it's too ugly, I'm afraid it will affect someone's appetite."
Bai Ning said, "Okay."
I thank you on behalf of someone who appreciates your thoughtfulness.
"Brother, let's go up quickly, I'm so hungry."
"Who taught you to speak like that?"
"Uh, ah, ne."
The trailing tone was so long, as if coquettish but not quite...sounded...itchy.
"How do I speak?" Xingkong looked up at him, puzzled.
Huo Siye's mouth twitched and he awkwardly looked away, "It's nothing, let's go up."
"Okay!" Shen Xingkong didn't notice his strangeness, nervously pinched her fingers, took a deep breath, and while Huo Siye was taking a step, she quickly put her arm into his arm.
Huo Siye, "..."
