At the dinner table, Qiao Xi was sipping porridge, and from the corner of her eye she quietly looked at Lu Huo. The man's outline was deep and his lines were hard and cold.
Lowered eyelids obscured his piercing gaze.
Qiao Xi's eyes moved down, across his neck and broad chest, his eyes were wanton.
Lu Huo slowly raised his eyelids, met her eyes, and glanced at her lightly, without any emotion.
Qiao Xi suddenly felt that the porridge, which was soft and sticky, suddenly tasted bad after eating it.
Especially when he thought about the invitation letter he had sent to Zhao Yuxi just now, and the preparation of the dress, Qiao Xi's chest was stuffy, as if he had been stuffed with a ball of cotton, and he was so uncomfortable that he panicked.
Noticing that the girl stopped eating, Lu Huo took the napkin aside and wiped his hands expressionlessly, his movements were indescribably elegant and beautiful.
"Are you full?" Lu Huo asked coldly.
Qiao Xi's black eyelashes fluttered like a small fan, "I'm in a bad mood, I don't want to eat."
"Come here." Lu Huo looked at her with dark eyes.
Qiao Xi's dark eyes lit up, she got up and walked towards him.
"Sit down." Lu Huo signaled the girl to sit down next to him.
Qiao Xi was a little puzzled, but sat down anyway.
"Left foot up."
"Why?" The man's eyes were dark, and Qiao Xi subconsciously wanted to hide her feet. She thought he called her over to ask her why she was in a bad mood and to coax her.
However, Lu Huo obviously didn't care about her mood.
Qiao Xi pursed her pretty little mouth, feeling a little unhappy, and not used to Lu Huo being so indifferent to her. Qiao Xi felt that she was spoiled by Lu Huo, and couldn't stand him ignoring her like this.
"Raise your feet." Lu Huo repeated. His tone was light, but he could not tolerate ignorance.
Qiao Xi took off the slippers that didn't fit her feet, and raised her left foot slightly.
The man's big hand went down and directly held her ankle.
His fingers were cold, even the palms were cold, and there were shallow calluses. Qiao Xi struggled uncomfortably, especially when she stepped on the ground with bare feet just now, and the soles of her feet were a little dirty. The strange Lu Huo held it, her face was a little hot.
No matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn't help being stared at her feet by Lu Huo.
The next second, Lu Huo's big hand began to untie the chain on the thin white ankle.
"Who gave you the chain?" Lu Huo asked repeatedly.
"This is mine. You gave it to me. I can't take it off." Qiao Xi wanted to retract her foot, but the man's big hand was strong and powerful, tightly pinching her ankle, and she couldn't break free at all.
Lu Huo's fingers were slender and beautiful, with distinct knuckles, and his fingertips felt cool. He deftly untied the chain.
Qiao Xi saw that he put her chain away and put it in his pocket, "This is mine."
"After I confirm, if it's yours, it will be returned to you."
"What are you sure about? This is my chain!" Qiao Xi was depressed for a while.
Lu Huo examined her sharply, "Or, you never know where you got it from."
Qiao Xi couldn't understand what he meant, "This is my chain, you made it for me with your own hands."
Lu Huo twitched the corners of his lips, "You said I would make it for you? I don't know you at all, and I have never made such a chain."
"This was given to me by the old you." Qiao Xi had a secret thought in her heart. The current Lu Huo is not the future him, but the him when she didn't pass through. To Zhao Yuxi, this is the Lu Huo from the previous life. confused.
She wasn't sure what she was thinking was right.
"I don't know how to explain it to you, Lu Huo, I'm your girlfriend, and I won't hurt you." Qiao Xi didn't want to see him examine her with defensive eyes, wary of her, "No one sent me, I just showed up out of nowhere."
The girl's words are ridiculous and boring.
There was sarcasm in Lu Huo's dark eyes, "Since you appeared out of thin air, then show me your disappearance now."
Qiao Xi...
The task has not been completed, she can't disappear.
"You don't believe me." Qiao Xi looked at him resentfully.
Lu Huo sneered: "Why should I believe you."
With that said, he turned the wheelchair and left.
The morning sun gradually became fierce. Qiao Xi heard from the bodyguard brother that Lu Huo had gone to the company, and she was wandering around the residence boredly.
There is a yard outside, with rockery and rocks, and there are small stone tables and chairs beside it, and bamboo is planted around it, giving it a sense of remoteness and tranquility.
She was walking casually outside. Not far away, the elder brother of the bodyguard on guard called and reported to Lu Huo, "She was walking in the yard."
The bodyguard was a little puzzled, "Young master, do you still need to drive her away?" The girl suddenly appeared, completely ignorant of the other party's details, and it was very dangerous to let her stay by the young master's side.
After all, no one knows the purpose of this girl approaching the young master.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Huo was sitting behind his desk. He thought of the little goldfish chain in his pocket, and replied, "Be careful, we can't let her leave for now."
"Yes, master."
Just as Lu Huo was about to hang up the phone, a girl's soft voice came from the other end of the phone. She asked the bodyguard, "When will Lu Huo come back? I want to see him."
Lu Huo held the phone expressionlessly.
On the other end of the phone, the bodyguard thought of the phone he hadn't hung up yet, so he coughed: "Master usually comes back around dinner time."
Qiao Xi sighed, "Then we'll have to wait a long time to see him."
The elder brother bodyguard was holding the mobile phone, and the young master on the other end of the phone hadn't hung up yet, obviously listening.
Qiao Xi was still thinking about something, so she asked the bodyguard brother: "Can you lend me your mobile phone?"
Brother Bodyguard: ...
Qiao Xi saw him holding up the phone, looking hesitant, she said, "I'm only using it for a while, and I'll return it to you soon."
The bodyguard brother wanted to ask Lu Huo on the other end of the phone what else he wanted to do, but he found that he had already hung up.
Qiao Xi took the mobile phone handed over by the bodyguard, she carried it on her back, and quickly searched for news about Qiao's family.
Qiao Xi saw that there was news on the Internet that Miss Qiao's family passed away a few years ago.
The speculation was confirmed, and Qiao Xi was sure that what she was wearing was not Lu Huo's future, but Lu Huo's previous life.
Qiao Xi was amazed, no wonder Lu Huo is cold and fierce now, with a face of not approaching strangers, so scary.
She still remembered how fiercely he strangled her neck last night, and she once thought that he was going to kill her.
Qiao Xi felt wronged and helpless again.
She handed the phone back to the bodyguard.
"Your neck..." The bodyguard brother reminded: "Do you need to apply medicine?"
Qiao Xi's skin is white and delicate, and it's easy to leave marks, not to mention that Lu Huo tried so hard last night and showed no mercy at all. Now the fingerprints on her neck have turned dark red, which is obvious and shocking.
"No need." Qiao Xi shook her head. She didn't want to rub the medicine herself. If she wanted to rub it, Lu Huo would do it for her. If the other party didn't want to, she would keep her fingerprints dangling in front of his eyes.
At night, Lu Huo came back after dinner time.
Qiao Xi didn't have a good rest last night, she fell asleep while waiting for Lu Huo to come back.
Seeing Lu Huo coming back, she stepped forward happily, "Why are you so late, I asked the bodyguard brother, you usually come back at dinner time, are you busy today?"
Qiao Xi had just woken up, her eyes were twinkling, with a slight blush at the end of her eyes, her eyes were hazy and watery, and her little face had slept a little more energetically.
Lu Huo looked at her, without any ups and downs in his tone, "It has nothing to do with you."
"Then have you had dinner?" Qiao Xi continued to ask him.
Lu Huo's eyes fell on her ankle, which was empty, as if she should have been wearing something, and her chain was still in his pocket.
Lu Huo responded lightly: "Yes."
"I haven't eaten yet, I'm hungry." After finishing speaking, Qiao Xi skillfully went to find someone to prepare her dinner.
Lu Huo lowered his eyes, not looking at the girl's figure.
Chi, who told her to wait for him.
After Qiao Xi had dinner, she ran to knock on Lu Huo's door.
"Come in."
"Can I stay tonight? Where can I sleep?" Now that she had figured out her situation, Qiao Xi winked and didn't ask to sleep with him.
Lu Huo was reading the documents, but he didn't raise his head: "Someone will arrange a room for you."
Qiao Xi continued to make requests: "I don't have a change of clothes."
Lu Huo looked up at her.
Qiao Xi was still wearing the smoky purple knitted skirt from yesterday, and it was summer, so her clothes were obviously inappropriate. In the hot weather, ordinary people would already be sweating profusely in knitwear.
But the girl is still fresh and refreshed, with icy skin like jade.
She was wearing slippers with half-fingered fingers on her feet, which was obviously a strange match, but she still looked good.
Lu Huo said coldly: "Someone will prepare clothes for you."
"Then I'll go to Brother Xiang." Qiao Xi had no problem, she didn't stay any longer, but left happily.
The door was closed, and the room fell into silence.
Lu Huo looked at the document and didn't turn the page for a long time.
The night was getting darker, and after an unknown amount of time, there was another knock on the door of the room.
Lu Huo was just taking a shower, he was wearing black silk pajamas, his cold white face became more and more stern, "Come in."
The next second, the door was pushed open, and Qiao Xi walked in.
Obviously, she also just took a shower, and she was wearing a new dress, a white suspender dress with a simple design.
However, she has a slender figure and a beautiful small face. Even if it's just such an ordinary skirt, she looks good in it.
The girl had just taken a bath, her eyes were stained with water, and they were full of light. She walked up to Lu Huo, "Can you bring me with you to the banquet tomorrow?"
She was still thinking about the conversation between Lu Huo and his assistant. He was going to a banquet tomorrow, and he asked someone to send an invitation letter to Zhao Yuxi.
Thinking of this made her feel very uncomfortable.
"I promise, I won't cause trouble for you, I won't cause trouble for you." Qiao Xi promised obediently, "I will stay by your side well."
Lu Huo raised his eyebrows, he looked at her faintly, and sneered: "Do you think you are qualified to ask me?"
The man is fierce and cold, and he is merciless at all, making it difficult to get close to him.
Qiao Xi was deflated again, and she also had a temper, "If you don't go, then don't go, don't beg me to go in the future."
After speaking, the girl left with puffy cheeks.
Lu Huo closed his hand on the armrest, he thought it was funny, he had such a temper, and he didn't know who spoiled her like this.
The next day, Qiao Xi was sitting in the living room early, and she watched Lu Huo wearing a black slim suit and preparing to go out to the banquet.
Now Lu Huo is mature, calm, and has a cold face, which is very suitable for wearing a suit.
Qiao Xi liked it and was heartbroken. He dressed so handsomely to see Zhao Yuxi
When Lu Huo looked up, he met the girl's eyes.
Her eyes were beautiful, full of water, and she looked at him eagerly. She looked like a little white cat who wanted to be stroked and coaxed.
Unfortunately, he doesn't like cats.
Lu Huo turned his eyes away and stopped looking at the girl. His wheelchair turned, and the bodyguard followed him and left.
Today is a chamber of commerce, and Lu Huo is not very interested in these banquets.
At the banquet, Huo Yu also attended, which is why Zhao Yuxi wanted to get an invitation letter to attend, she was pursuing Huo Yu.
She is very well dressed today.
Originally a beautiful face, with exquisite makeup, wearing a gorgeous dress, coupled with the temperament cultivated in Qiao's family in the past few years, Zhao Yuxi is the most outstanding female guest at the banquet at this time.
Seeing Huo Yu coming, she was happily going forward, but a man in a wheelchair came out from the side and blocked her.
It's Lu Huo.
Zhao Yuxi looked at him with a complicated expression. She knew that he sent the invitation letter, and even the exquisite dress on her body was also sent by him.
At some point, this man suddenly appeared in her life, and he would help her whenever she was in need.
Zhao Yuxi was very grateful, and at the same time, it also satisfied her vanity.
She knew that the man in front of her was the object that many wealthy families wanted to curry favor with, and many women tried to get close to him.
However, she heard that Lu Huo was not willing to let other women get close at all.
Zhao Yuxi was delighted that such an arrogant and dignified person only liked her. It's a pity that she is grateful to him and doesn't like him. She only likes Huo Yu, and Lu Huo's legs can't walk, so she absolutely can't be with him.
"What a coincidence, Lu Huo, thank you for the invitation letter sent by someone, and the dress, I like it very much." Zhao Yuxi had a bit of shame on her face, and had to admit that Lu Huo in front of her was indeed very handsome.
Every time, it was his assistant who appeared to help her under his orders. This was the second time he appeared in front of her.
She thought that he only dared to protect her silently.
"Really?" Lu Huo hooked his lips, he took out the small goldfish chain from his pocket, and handed it to Zhao Yuxi, "Your chain fell off."
His big hands are beautiful, a thin silver chain is lying on his palm, and there is a small wooden ornament on it, which looks like a fish. It is ordinary to the extreme, not inconspicuous at all, especially compared to the expensive jewelry on her body, That chain even looked ugly.
Zhao Yuxi smiled and said, "You are mistaken, this is not my chain." Her tone could not hide her disgust, "It may have been dropped by someone else, and my taste is not enough to wear such jewelry."
Under the bright light of the hall, Lu Huo's brows were deep, and his dark eyes were dim.
The small silver chain lay on the palm of his hand, just like in his dream.
Lu Huo's thin lips curled up slightly, and he looked at Zhao Yuxi seriously, the light in his eyes was very faint, "Well, I did make a mistake."
He put away the small silver chain, put it back in his pocket, and turned the wheelchair to leave.
Zhao Yuxi didn't react, so Lu Huo just left
