Huo Sikai felt as if he had returned to the old days, lying in bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, and had to rely on alcohol anesthesia to fall asleep.
There was a bottle of wine on the bedside table, which had already been opened, and the glass was prepared before lying on the bed, but he rarely wanted to reach out.
After surviving the whole night like this, it was just dawn outside when Huo Sikai turned over and got out of bed, washed up quickly, didn't even change his nightgown, and went directly to the guest bedroom next door.
The door of the guest bedroom is still closed, probably because he hasn't gotten up yet.
Huo Sikai sat down by the door, resting his forehead with his hands, feeling indescribably bored.
He can always handle things in the business field very well, but when it comes to emotional matters, he starts to feel helpless.
At ten o'clock, Chen Lincai opened the door calmly, and the aroma of breakfast wafted up from downstairs. He took a deep breath of the aroma, and his stomach growled even louder.
When he went downstairs, he saw a lot of breakfast on the dining table. There were all kinds of breakfasts, all of which were delivered by the nearby five-star hotel. It was the original owner's favorite breakfast on weekdays.
Huo Sikai was sitting at the dining table, enjoying the breakfast slowly.
Before Chen Lin walked over, he heard the target person speak slowly: "You are probably still very angry now, so I guess you don't want to eat the breakfast I prepared."
The steps under his feet stopped suddenly.
Chen Lin weighed for a few seconds between going over to have breakfast with a shy face and turning around to leave with backbone, and after a few seconds, he decisively chose the latter, turned around and left.
As for such a large table of breakfast, let the target person enjoy it.
The system weakly reminded: [Poor host, if you are really hungry, just eat a little, it won't affect your plan.]
It's really the host's stomach that makes it a little uncomfortable. Is there anyone in the world more dedicated than its current host? !
Chen Lin asked back, "Do you think I'll let myself starve?"
system:[…]
Well, it was thinking too much.
Dedication is devotion, but the host has such a personality that he will never treat himself badly.
And as far as it knows, the tea restaurant outside the community is the host's favorite.
Seeing the young man walking away from the door of the house, Huo Sikai stood up suddenly, and the chair behind him fell to the ground because of his sudden standing, and the delicious breakfast on the big table was also eaten together with the tablecloth. floor.
Huo Sikai stared in the direction of the gate with a livid face and dark eyes.
Not angry with the young man, but angry with himself, obviously wanting to take the initiative to admit his mistake and reconcile, but the moment he said it, he completely deviated from his original intention.
According to the personality of the young man, he might be even more angry now than he was last night.
The phone rang suddenly, Huo Sikai calmed down and connected the phone.
The call was made by assistant Xiao Li, asking about the auto show in the afternoon.
In addition to real estate, entertainment, and catering, Huo's is also involved in the automotive industry. The supercars produced by Huo's have always been known for their good performance and high appearance. Of course, the price of such a sports car will not be so low.
Huo Sikai suddenly remembered that a sports car that the youth had always wanted before would also be exhibited at this auto show. At that time, he had no money, and he didn't want to use his family relationship, so he couldn't buy it for young people, but it's different now.
I greeted the assistant and asked him to save the same model for myself, then hung up the phone.
Afterwards, Huo Sikai called again and asked the part-time worker to come over and clean up the mess all over the floor, and then went out to the company.
…
When it was almost time to get off work, the assistant Xiao Li knocked on the door and came in, and put the carefully packed box on his desk.
Huo Sikai looked up and frowned almost immediately.
It was the same box he had his assistant send home, and it contained the keys to the sports car.
Huo Sikai frowned and remained silent for a moment, a guess flashed in his mind: "Is he not at home?"
"Mr. Chen is at home, but as soon as he heard that I said you gave it, he returned it to me without even opening the package."
If they didn't guess the packaging, the youth would not know what was inside, so it's no wonder they would refuse.
This idea only stayed in Huo Sikai's mind for a moment, before Xiao Li dismissed it aloud: "I also specifically said that there are car keys inside, and I even introduced the model's production year and various functions one by one. Mr. Chen still doesn't accept it."
After a while, Huo Sikai said: "This is impossible, he likes sports cars very much, there is no reason not to accept them."
Xiao Li said that he was also very embarrassed, okay.
The other party really likes sports cars, that's right, he can see this from the sudden light of the other party's eyes, but after hearing that the president sent them there, no matter how excited the other party was, he finally gave it to him with a cold face. Refused.
Seeing his boss's complexion getting worse and worse, Xiao Li added another sentence: "Mr. Chen said that he only takes what he should take. If you really take this sports car, you will let me buy it when the time comes." He's going to have a hard time doing extra things."
Although Xiao Li couldn't figure out what the extra thing was, he found that after he finished saying this, the face of the boss could no longer be seen.
"If you don't want it, then don't. Isn't there a customer who wants it? Just sell it."
Xiao Li responded, then turned around and went out to call the sales department. When he heard the sales department say that the other party's surname was Chen, he didn't think much about it, but when he asked suddenly, the full name of the customer was indeed It's Chen Lin.
He took a breath, and quickly told the other party: "Except for me, you can no longer reveal the full name of the buyer to anyone, especially the boss."
The boss doesn't accept the ones that he sends over, but instead buys them with his own money. This temper can't be more obvious. If the boss knows...
Xiao Li patted his chest, and went to those female colleagues in the secretary department who claimed to be experienced in many battles for advice.
…
After finally calming down for a whole day, the matter of the rejection of the gift became chaotic again.
I thought I knew enough about the young man's preferences, but never thought that he hit a wall again, and now he really has nothing to do.
After staying in the office for a while, Huo Sikai felt that it was necessary for him to have a frank and honest chat with the young man. Since he had already decided to be together, he couldn't always hold on to the past. Such words are nothing but mutual torture. , I can't feel the slightest sense of pleasure.
After leaving the office, I ran into assistant Xiao Li at the elevator entrance.
Xiao Li, who had learned "Thirty-Six Strategies to Coax a Boyfriend" from a female colleague, said confidently: "Perhaps, he needs a sincere apology more than a gift."
"Isn't it sincere enough to send a sports car?"
Xiao Li was choked, and continued: "Of course not enough, what you need is more sincerity, for example, cooking an exquisite candlelight dinner by yourself."
These words were taught to him by those female colleagues in the secretarial department. Although he selfishly felt that this might not be as sincere as a sports car, but given that those female colleagues had experienced many battles and he was still single for the time being, he still believed in those female colleagues. better.
What's more, letting a man who never cooks suddenly wash his hands and make soup is definitely full of sincerity.
However, what Xiao Li didn't know was that the boss in front of him, who seemed to be out of touch with the world, had already cooked for Chen Lin countless times after he married Chen Lin.
After hearing Xiao Li's words, Huo Sikai felt that the hut suddenly opened up.
- You think I'm only with you for money, right? That's fine, I won't do those things that make people misunderstood...
Climbing up to him again is not because of his identity, but because of sincerity...
Then, it makes perfect sense for the young man to reject his sports car.
Like when his self-esteem was hit, he still couldn't let it go, let alone the youth was originally like that.
"Your suggestion is very good. I will go back and try it. If it works, I will add a bonus this month."
Xiao Li nodded hurriedly: "Thank you, boss."
Huo Sikai came home early, went to the supermarket to buy some vegetables, and started preparing dinner.
After excitedly tossing about in the kitchen for more than an hour, Huo Sikai realized that the young man was still angry, and it was still unknown what time he would go home at night.
After sitting at the dining table for a while, he got up and walked towards the sofa, picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table and called the young man.
The phone call was not rejected, but the tone was not much better, as if it was a debt collector.
"What's up?"
"When did you come back, I did..." Dinner, want to have a good chat.
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted impatiently by the person on the other end of the phone.
"It's stipulated in the contract that I just need to go back before twelve o'clock."
Before Huo Sikai could say anything more, the phone hung up.
Huo Sikai frowned, stood up from the sofa quickly, walked quickly towards the study, and then closed the door of the study with a "bang", and the exquisite dinner on the dining table was still there as it was.
Time passed by every minute and every second, as if it had been a long time before there was any movement from the hall outside.
Huo Sikai, who was sitting behind the desk, looked up at the time on his phone, it was eleven fifty-nine, and when he looked at the gap in the time, the time went forward a few seconds, exactly twelve o'clock.
It really came in with a pinch.
Huo Sikai stood up and walked outside, then he saw a young man smelling of alcohol lying on the sofa with his eyes slightly squinted.
Seeing him walking over, the young man showed an extremely aggrieved look, and he did not see the previous cold face at all.
Huo Sikai sighed and walked over.
I don't know if the drunk young man can remember what he said, but Huo Sikai still spoke.
"I was wrong about the previous thing, please forgive me? As for the contract, we can void it."
The young man suddenly laughed and stretched out his arms to hug him.
"That's what you said, I didn't force you."
Huo Sikai's heart suddenly softened, and he repeated in a low voice: "Yes, I said it."
"Chen Lin, let's start again, and never say the word breakup again, otherwise... I will really hate you."
