Chapter 205 1 Dinner
At six o’clock in the afternoon, Xia Luobing turned off her computer and was about to call Yunqi Huo when the phone on the desk started,
“Ding ding ding dong” sounds very pleasant.
“Yes, I just got off work.” Charlotte walked out with her coat while talking on the phone. “Well, it’s safe for you to drive.”
Huo Yunqi called. He was going back to the old mansion today, so he might not be going home for dinner tonight.
After hanging up the phone, Charlotte, who had just been full of interest, suddenly lost her spirits. She didn’t know when she should have gotten used to him.
“It’s useless.” Xia Luobing muttered to herself. She took out the car keys from her bag and prepared to drive away. Suddenly, a light shone in. She instinctively used her hand to block it. She took her hand away and saw the person standing in front of her. She was unconsciously stunned. “Feng Shuo, why are you here?”
“Bing Bing, let’s have dinner together.” Feng Shuo smiled, his face seemingly exhausted, as if he had traveled a long way.
There was a hotpot restaurant near the Public Security Bureau. When the two entered, there weren’t many people. They chose a seat by the window and sat down. They could see the traffic outside while eating.
“Are you and Yunqi Huo going to have a wedding?” Feng Shuo said, his eyes burning as he looked at the person opposite him, “Have you thought it through?”
He hurriedly rushed over when he heard the news when he came back from a business trip. He did not believe that he had failed again.
Why had he done so much, but she had never seen him?
“Of course.” Xia Luobing poured himself a glass of water and smiled. “If you wish me well, be happy. If it’s anything else, don’t say it.”
From intimacy to indifference, she and the person in front of her felt as if time was a finger of sand, and they could not turn back in a hurry.
Feng Shuo chuckled, “Alright, I wish you well.”
The smile on his face was incomparably sincere, but in his heart, there was a voice desperately shouting unwillingness.
He clearly loved her more than Yunqi.
“Bing Bing, I’m going to leave for a while.” Feng Shuo put the dishes on the plate in front of Xia Luobing and smiled, “I’m really sorry for doing so many things that hurt you.”
Xia Luobing held the chopsticks in his hand and slowly picked up the dishes and put them into his mouth. After a while, she said, “Where are you going?”
She could not really treat him as a passer-by.
“The company has started a new project elsewhere.” Feng Shuo explained, “I’ll take a look.”
Xia Luobing let out a “Oh” and fell silent. She didn’t know what to say, but the hot pot’s chili base boiled like an uneasy mood.
“Bing Bing, if you feel unhappy, you can come to me at any time.” Feng Shuo pressed down on Xia Luobing and said seriously, “I have always had your place by my side.”
“I will be very happy.” Xia Luobing’s voice wasn’t loud, but her attitude was resolute.
She and Huo Yunqi had experienced such separation, and they already understood each other’s intentions. How could they not be happy?
“Bing Bing, there is not only black and white in this world, but also emotions.” Feng Shuo put down his chopsticks and suddenly asked, “QC Group is in a financial crisis, did you know?”
Xia Luobing was stunned. “When did it happen?”
Why didn’t Yunqi tell her at all?
QC Group was a joint venture between Huo Yunqi and Ye Shaochen. The two of them had invested a lot of effort in it. How could a financial crisis suddenly occur?
“In recent days, it is said that the European regional representative leaked the company’s top-level trade secrets, causing a large portion of the unlisted products to be imitated and put on the market.” Feng Shuo explained very “patiently”, “because the chain of funds is broken, the operation of the Asia-Pacific region has also been affected.”
Every word Feng Shuo said smashed into Fu Ran’s mind like a nail. She had just spoken to Huo Yunqi on the phone. How could he not tell her about such a big thing?
No wonder she had called Yunxi recently. She was always listless and depressed. She always wanted to say something but didn’t dare to say it.
Thinking about it now, she must have known about this matter a long time ago, and Huo Yunqi had warned her to hide it from her.
How long was Yunqi trying to hide it from her? Why was he still in the mood to help her prepare for the grand wedding?
“Ice?” Feng Shuo pulled Xia Luobing’s attention back and said with concern, “Are you alright?”
Xia Luobing, who was “well” dressed, picked up her bag and stood up to leave, “You eat it yourself.”
Right now, all she cared about was that Huo Yunqi’s career was so difficult, so how could she still have the mood to eat with Feng Shuo?
“Ice!” Feng Shuo threw the money on the table and hurriedly chased after him, “Bing Bing, listen to me!”
Xia Luobing suddenly stopped and turned to stare at Feng Shuo, “No matter if QC can survive this financial crisis, I will not leave Huo Yunqi.”
No wonder Feng Shuo suddenly invited her to dinner. So it was because of this.
“Bing Bing, I can give you Duo Duo a better life. I will treat her like my own daughter.” Feng Shuo said seriously, “Why don’t you think about it?”
Charlotte laughed coldly, “Is there anything else?”
Feng Shuo took a step forward and frowned, “I know it would be a bit of a robbery to say this, but you have to consider it for Huo Yunqi. If he and Ai Wei weren’t together, QC would definitely be able to safely survive this crisis.”
When he first heard this news, he felt that the heavens were helping him. If he didn’t work hard, how could he give up?
“Since you know, don’t say anything else.” Charlotte said coldly. She turned around and left, but waves surged in her heart.
How could she be so careless that she didn’t realize that Huo Yunqi was staring at such a great pressure.
Thinking about how Yunqi Huo was preparing for their wedding while dealing with the company’s affairs, she felt her heart was stuffy and uncomfortable.
At the Huo Family villa, Liu Yan slapped the table and said angrily, “Huo Yunqi, is Xia Luobing really that important to you?”
If it weren’t for Ai Wei not telling her that she didn’t know that QC Group would have such a big financial crisis, he would have lost years of effort!
“Mom, I will take care of the company’s affairs.” “I won’t sell my marriage for money,” Huo Yunqi said indifferently.
Liu Yan’s entire body trembled with anger at Huo Yunqi’s words, “You used all of the Huo Clan’s last wealth on QC. Are you worthy of your father’s actions?”
There was nothing wrong with Ai Wei ·. She was beautiful and was Ai Dasheng’s only daughter. If he could marry her, Ho Yunqi’s life and career would climb to new heights. How could he not understand?
“Mom.” Huo Yunqi’s expression turned extremely ugly. “Dad will understand.”
In recent years, Liu Yan’s personality had become more and more domineering. She wanted Huo Yunqi and Huo Yunxi to go against her wishes, so she would definitely say those words.
Previously, Huo Yunqi would not refuse as long as it didn’t involve a matter of principle, but this time, he couldn’t.
Xia Luobing, he’s set.
“Yunqi, your mother is very sad.” Liu Yan said unwillingly, “Mom hopes you can live a good life.”
“I will handle it properly.”
After saying that, Huo Yunqi left, causing Liu Yan’s entire body to tremble with anger. She shouted, “What’s so good about Xia Luobing?”
Huo Yunqi did not turn around and left with big strides. Not long after, the sound of the car starting came from outside. Then, the sound became farther and farther away, and in the end, he could no longer hear it.
Liu Yan walked around the living room in a panic. She was very irritated. In the end, she couldn’t help but call Ai Wei Wei and say, “Doing this won’t really affect the development of QC, right?”
She stole the information from Huo Yunqi’s computer at Ai Wei Wei’s suggestion. She thought that Huo Yunqi would definitely agree to be with Ai Wei Wei when QC encountered a crisis and Huo Yunqi needed a lot of money.
But now it seemed that things weren’t as she thought. Her son’s obsession with Xia Luobing was much deeper than she thought.
“Auntie, don’t worry, everything will be fine!” Ai Wei said with a smile. He hung up the phone and sat down at the bedside. He said with disdain, “Huo Yunqi is such a shrewd person. How could there be a mother like Liu Yan?”
Ai Dasheng’s eyes lit up and he drank a mouthful of tea. It didn’t look like he was seriously injured or weak at all.
“If she wasn’t stupid, how could she be obedient?” Ai Dasheng smiled and said, “Be careful about what happens next.”
‘”Of course!” Said Ayn Wei with a smile.
If Huo Yunqi obediently agreed to marry her, she wouldn’t have planned to deal with him. She really couldn’t be blamed for this.
When Yunqi Huo drove home, the apartment was pitch-black. Only the bedroom was lit and the soft colors warmed the hearts of the people.
Thinking that Xia Luobing was probably sitting on the sofa and reading the information page by page, Huo Yunqi’s heart was incomparably at ease. The QC Group’s financial crisis had erupted too strangely. Ye Shaochen had already personally gone over to investigate, and he thought that there would be news soon.
Yunqi adjusted his mood in the car. He opened the door and entered the apartment. The lights in the living room lit up. Xia Luobing was standing at the door in his long shirt. His hair, which had always been combed up, loosely hung on his shoulders. It was refreshing and gave off a hint of midnight laziness and temptation.
“Bing Bing, what’s wrong with you?” Yunqi deliberately provoked Xia Luobing’s chin and put on a frivolous look, “Are you seducing me?”
Xia Luobing blushed and patted Huo Yunqi’s dishonest hand, “I made your dinner. Hurry up and eat.”
After returning home separately from Feng Shuo, she suddenly wanted to cook a meal for Huo Yunqi. Although she knew that he had probably already eaten outside, she still wanted to cook for him.
“You made it?” Huo Yunqi raised his eyebrows in surprise. He held her hand and walked towards the restaurant while smiling. “I wonder if you’ve been swapped.”
Xia Luobing’s cooking skills weren’t very good in the past, but ever since she had Duo Duo, she had specially enrolled in a class to practice, so she still had a bit of confidence.
“This is the amphioxus you ate. Try it.” Xia Luobing picked up a small bowl of soup and placed it in front of Huo Yunqi. Then, she brought him some dishes and said, “There’s also this.”
Huo Yunqi did not drink any soup or eat any vegetables. He held down Xia Luobing’s busy hand and said, “What happened?”
Obviously, Charlotte was a little abnormal today.
“Is there a problem cooking for you?” Xia Luobing curved his lips and smiled. However, if he looked carefully, he could see that the smile had not reached his eyes.
There were orange lights hanging in the dining room, and the smell of food was in the air.
Huo Yunqi took Xia Luobing into his arms and hugged her. “Bing Bing, we are the closest people to each other. I don’t want you to hide anything from me.”
He and she were already so good that he wanted to know everything about her.
“What about you? Is there anything you’re hiding from me?” Xia Luobing maintained her position of being hugged by Huo Yunqi without moving. She looked at him word by word and said, “Huo Yunqi, did you answer me or not?”
“You already know?” Huo Yunqi pressed his eyebrows helplessly, “I’ll take care of it.”
