"Do you know Xie Mingzhao?"
Huo Jun did not ask this question when he saw Xie Mingzhao and Liang Hang off to leave, nor did he ask during dinner. He still did not ask on the way to send Su Yi back to the dormitory, as if he had not secretly changed his attitude because of an outsider in the cafeteria before.
As a result, Sui returned to the room, took a shower, and when she came out, she found that the other party had sent her this message.
She thought he was very patient, but it turned out he was just holding it in.
Xie Mingzhao was very secretive about the fact that he was engaged, but Su Yi never thought of hiding it deliberately. As long as something existed, it would be known to others sooner or later.
And now Xie Mingzhao, I don’t know what medicine he took, he doesn’t even pretend to be a stranger anymore. In order to prevent him from doing anything weird, Su Yi decided to tell Huo Jun directly.
"My family and his family are friends, and they arranged our marriage when we were very young."
"Bang!" Huo Jun crushed the measuring instrument in his hand.
The others on the training ground were startled. They were about to tease Jun about how powerful he was, but when they saw his expression, they swallowed their words back. They exchanged glances and silently reduced their presence.
The bruises from previous training sessions were still aching, and they couldn't stand a second round.
I don't know what happened. I was in a good mood when I left, with a gentle breeze blowing on my face, but when I came back the sky turned cloudy. I stared at the communicator for a long time, and as I stared at it, a storm suddenly broke out.
So, love is really unreasonable. Even someone like Jun Ge is not immune to it once he falls in love.
"Xie Mingzhao has always wanted to cancel the engagement, and I also feel that the two of us are not suitable. The two families have been negotiating recently. I only told you about this matter, and I hope you can keep it a secret for me." Su Yi sent a second message.
After Huo Jun finished reading, the strong wind died down and the dark clouds dispersed. Although it was not yet as bright as the sun, it was much better than before. He glanced at the wreckage in his hand, raised his head and said to Huang Cangcang, "The training equipment is aging. Write a report to apply for a replacement."
"OK." Huang Cangcang agreed hurriedly, but he was sweating in his heart. No matter how new the equipment was, it couldn't withstand your mammoth-like squeeze.
I don't know if Jun Ge's pursuit is not going smoothly, but as a brother, I should at least give him a hand. It seems that the idea we discussed before can be implemented.
"Don't worry, I keep my mouth shut." Huo Jun replied, while stroking his chin and thinking.
Although he was not familiar with Xie Mingzhao, the academy was so large, and the practical combat department and the command department were in a subtle competitive relationship, so a lot of information was circulated. He had not heard that the other party had any engagement, so it seemed that he was keeping it a secret and was indeed thinking of breaking off the engagement.
However, not to mention that the engagement has not been actually cancelled, just based on the two sentences that Xie Mingzhao said to Su Yi in the cafeteria before, it is enough for Huo Jun to regard him as a competitor.
On the other side, Liang Sen was also asking Xie Mingzhao the same question, "Do you know the beauty from the music department?"
Without waiting for Xie Mingzhao to speak, he half-jokingly said, "You're not very loyal, Zhao. You didn't introduce me to someone before. Now, someone from the practical department has gotten there first."
"The two elders are old acquaintances." Xie Mingzhao said.
He still didn't want to talk about the engagement. His family gave him time to think about it, but he was hesitant about this choice that didn't require any choice before. As time was running out, he became more and more restless. Today, when he saw Su Yi and Huo Jun walking together, he went up to say hello without having time to think. Only then did he realize that he was too impulsive.
Seeing that he didn't say much, Liang Sen didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he bumped his shoulder and said, "Look at Huo Jun. That's how you should pursue a girl. What about you and Xiao Qin? After the military training, did you ask her out for dinner? I tell you, someone like her is very popular in the practical department. Don't wait until she gets chased away by someone else before you regret it."
When he mentioned Qin Shu, Xie Mingzhao was stunned for a moment.
It is undeniable that Qin Shu possesses the qualities of his ideal partner: strong, brave, and motivated. Although she comes from an ordinary background, she is unwilling to be mediocre. He admires her very much, and he believes that she feels the same way about him.
But choosing Qin Shu means giving up a lot of things he has. The family doesn't want him to be with a commoner girl who has nothing but talent.
The benefits she could bring might be big or small, and the future was too uncertain. She couldn't be compared with Su Yi, who had the Su family standing behind her.
He ended up saying nothing.
At the same time, Su Yi was complaining to Mao Tuan Tuan, "This Xie Mingzhao is so annoying. I have to beat him up someday."
Mao Tuan Tuan frowned, "Shouldn't he be very happy if you want to cancel the engagement? Why is he dragging his feet now? I thought that without the 'death of Su Yi' this time, he could be with the heroine smoothly and become the hero."
Su Yi sneered, "Are you expecting too much from him? Do you remember what I said before? His face shows that he will always be the runner-up. He is not destined to be the male lead."
"I still don't understand." said Mao Tuantuan.
"It's easy to understand, actually. First, I was the one who proposed to break off the engagement, which was earlier than in the novel, right? His feelings for the heroine aren't that deep yet, and he doesn't have the courage to give up everything for her. Second, it's a common human problem. People who are favored are fearless. It turns out that Miss Su likes him so much. She keeps calling him brother all the time, and I get annoyed by hearing that. Now that I don't bother him, Huo Jun is pursuing me again. Bones that are fought over by others always smell especially good, and he probably feels reluctant to give them up again."
"You compare yourself to a bone?"
"What can I do?" Su Yi spread his hands, looking like he had made a great sacrifice. "If we don't use this analogy, how can we highlight his characteristics as a masculine man?"
Mao Tuan Tuan cleverly said, "Doesn't that compare Huo Jun to a dog man as well?"
Sue glanced at him, "He needs a comparison? He's just a dog."
Mao Tuantuan was speechless.
Huo Jun was born low-key and it had nothing to do with him. The fact that he was pursuing a freshman in the music department had only been known to the entire college within two days. Now, whenever he walked towards the music department or Su Yi dormitory, he would attract a crowd of onlookers.
Su Yi's classmates even regard it as a must-watch program every day.
It can be seen that after solving the problem of Black Rose, he has been very relaxed recently. In addition to making plans for dinner on weekdays, he also makes plans to go out with Su Yi on weekends, still using the excuse of finding delicious food.
If he asked Su Yi to go for a walk or go shopping, she might not be interested, but when it came to eating, she would be willing to go eight out of ten times.
In this world, there are so many different kinds of delicious food, and the variety of rare and strange ingredients is incomparable to any previous world. Sui has a grand goal, to eat all over the stars and the sea!
On the weekend, she and Huo Jun went to the dense forest where they first met. She heard that there was a kind of wild mushroom there that needed to be picked and eaten immediately, and the taste was very delicious.
So Huo Jun took the picnic tools and she set off with a good appetite.
The last time I came here was at night, and with the presence of that S-level Zerg, the whole forest was gloomy. When I came here again during the day, I found that the place was full of lush vegetation, birds singing, flowers blooming, and small animals jumping in the forest, making it seem full of vitality.
That kind of strange fungus will only bloom at dusk. The two searched the whole forest and found a small clump under a big tree. Then they watched it intently, watching the sun go down little by little, the rosy clouds gradually filling the sky, and then the fungus matured accompanied by the sound of birds returning to their nests.
Huo Jun cut them off one by one with extremely fast movements, and some mucus flowed out from the incisions, accompanied by a strange fragrance.
Su Yi sniffed and said, "Is it really edible?"
She remembered that in some places, the more beautiful the mushrooms looked, the more poisonous they were. This wild mushroom smelled so good. Would they hold hands and sing "Drop the Handkerchief" after eating it
"It's edible. I've eaten it." Huo Jun said, without stopping his hands. He washed the mushrooms, cut them into slices, roasted some on the fire, and threw some into the pot to make soup.
Stimulated by the flames, the fragrance became stronger, and Su Yi could even feel that some animals in the forest were getting excited.
Wait...it seems like there are more than just animals.
She suddenly turned her head and stared in a certain direction. In the forest where the light was slowly dimming, several strange-looking people walked out.
They are really weird in shape, with nobody knowing what is on their heads. They look like walking ox-headed and horse-faced monsters, which is very funny.
She poked Huo Jun and asked, "Is this a human in disguise, or some strange species?"
Huo Jun also noticed those people. Unlike Su Yi, he looked at them and slowly narrowed his eyes, because these figures looked familiar no matter how he looked at them.
"Hey, what is that girl over there cooking? Do you want to play with us?" One of them spoke in a vulgar voice.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Huo Jun became more certain that it was Huang Cangcang and his gang!
What are they doing
"It can talk, so it looks like it's really a human being." Su Yi said a little disappointedly.
Those people were getting closer and closer. In the dense forest as night was gradually falling, such malicious approach made people even more frightened, and their words deepened this fear.
"Come on, little beauty, the brothers are better at playing than the guy next to you."
Huo Jun raised his eyebrows. He had seen their plans. However, even if they were trying to help him, they came up with such a stupid idea and dared to say such things. Don't expect him to show mercy.
He was about to put down what he was holding, but Su Yi stopped him and said, "Will mushrooms become unpalatable after a while?"
Huo Jun knew that she would not be afraid at all, but he did not expect that she would still be thinking about eating at this time. He smiled helplessly and said, "The taste will be a little worse. I will try to finish it quickly."
"Don't go." Su Yi said. After waiting for so long just for a bite of food, wouldn't it be a loss if you can't taste the best
Huo Jun's quick decision was not as fast as hers. She decided to do it herself, deal with those people, and then eat mushrooms.
She clapped her hands, stood up, and said, "Let me go. You watch the fire."
Huo Jun's gesture of stopping stopped in mid-air, and he watched Su Yi walk towards those people, while Huang Cangcang and others had no idea of the fate that was about to befall them.
"Forget it, I'll be nicer to them in the future." Huo Jun muttered to himself.
The author has something to say: Huang Cangcang: We just want to create an opportunity for the boss to be a hero and save the beauty qaq
