Zuiyuelou is a Chinese restaurant with antique decoration and some Gu Tingyun style.
Tang Jiao herself couldn't tell what Gu Tingyun's style was. But it's so obvious, once you look at it, you immediately know that this is his style.
Huo Xiao had already arrived, and Tang Jiao went straight to the second floor.
"Dong dong dong" was knocked on the door. Huo Xiao immediately stood up and opened the door. He pulled out his chair like a gentleman. Tang Jiao smiled softly and said, "Thank you, Master Xiao."
Then he sat down.
Huo Xiao returned to his seat. He changed into a moon-white suit, which looked completely different from the one he met this afternoon.
Huo Xiao hasn't ordered yet, but he has placed a wine bottle in front of the table, and there is a faint smell of alcohol in the room.
Tang Jiao propped up her chin and said with a girlish look, "Master Xiao really smokes and drinks a lot."
Tang Jiao saw Huo Xiao carrying a wine bottle more than once, and she asked again: "Are you stressed?"
After saying this, he started laughing. He said before that Yue Jiawen was too nosy! Now think about it, she herself is actually behaving the same way now.
She shook her head: "I'm too nosy."
Huo Xiao felt that he still liked her for being such a nosy person.
He said: "No, thank you for your concern."
Tang Jiao raised her eyebrows and said: "If you die prematurely, who should I turn to to repay my kindness? Really, I have helped so many people, one, two or three. It is so difficult to expect you to repay my kindness."
She joked half-seriously.
Huo Xiao lowered his head slightly, opened the wine bottle and took a sip, then looked at her with bright eyes.
"How many people have you saved?"
Tang Jiao smiled very innocently: "This is an analogy."
Huo Xiao laughed out loud, took another sip, and held the wine bottle without saying a word.
The waiter quickly started serving the food, and Tang Jiao sighed: "It's easy to gain weight if you eat too much at night, but I still want to eat it."
Huo Xiao immediately said: "It doesn't matter if you eat a little. You are very thin and have no meat at all."
Tang Jiao rolled her eyes.
Huo Xiaoruo laughed half-heartedly.
He looked at Tang Jiao. She indeed seemed to like the food here, her cheeks were bulging like a little squirrel.
For some reason, seeing how happy she was eating, he also thought this was extremely delicious.
He lowered his head and took a bite. Sure enough, it seemed to taste much better than usual.
Huo Xiao rarely cares whether something tastes good or not. In his opinion, it's all the same. But Tang Jiao was so happy eating it, he actually thought it was the most beautiful delicacy in the world.
"Is there a flower on my face?" Tang Jiao took a moment to look up while lowering her head to eat, and asked Huo Xiao calmly.
Huo Xiao: "Do you like the food here so much?"
Tang Jiao smiled brightly: "Give me one of the crystal balls in front of you."
Huo Xiao said yes and handed it to Tang Jiao. Seeing that she was satisfied with the food, she inexplicably wished that time could stand still.
He slowly lowered his head and then whispered: "When will your mother get married?"
Tang Jiao: "It's scheduled for the 16th of next month. There's less than a month left. I'll be very busy from now on."
She was happy: "My mother can find a good home. This is the happiest thing for me."
Huo Xiao nodded, and then whispered: "What happened when you were attacked on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year?"
Although Huo Xiao is not in Shanghai, he still knows a lot.
He looked at Tang Jiao and asked, "Do you know who did it? If necessary, I can help."
If you say this to others, you will probably have to guess 10,000 meanings. No one knew what he wanted to do.
But he told Tang Jiao that Tang Jiao knew that Huo Xiao really wanted to help.
how to say
Although there are always rumors about how cruel Huo Xiao is, Tang Jiao believes that Huo Xiao is an upright person.
Just because she saved him, he had always cared about her affairs. Although she didn't ask him to do anything big, Tang Jiao could still feel Huo Xiao's sincerity.
"I don't have a clue, but I don't need help. My uncle will take care of it." She looked into Huo Xiao's eyes, then smiled and said, "How are you? You're coming to Shanghai before the first month of the year. How long do you plan to stay?"
Huo Xiao lowered his head slightly, then quickly raised his head and said, "Not sure, it depends on the situation."
Tang Jiao actually didn't understand. Huo Xiao was handling many things in Peiping, and it was a bit strange that he had to run back and forth here.
What exactly do the Huo family want to do in Shanghai
The scrutiny in Tang Jiao's eyes was too obvious. Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows and said with a bit of a smile: "What? Are you looking at me this time?"
Tang Jiao said bluntly: "I'm just guessing what the Huo family wants to do? What's their plan?"
Huo Xiaoruo raised the corner of his mouth as if nothing, and said: "Is there a plot? Not really."
He answered quickly, but so quickly that Tang Jiao almost concluded that he was lying.
She squinted slightly.
Huo Xiaodao: "Let's not discuss these anymore."
He thought for a moment, took out a small box from his coat pocket, and handed it to Tang Jiao.
Tang Jiao raised her eyebrows in surprise, "What is this?"
The box is small and boxy.
Tang Jiao joked softly: "You are not planning to propose to me, are you?"
The naughty little girl instantly silenced the scene.
Huo Xiao said nothing, and his eyes revealed some meaningful meaning, which was a bit difficult to understand.
Tang Jiao saw that his face was expressionless and his eyes were deep, and she didn't feel embarrassed at all. She just said, "Look at you, you are just joking and trying to show off to me."
Huo Xiao was quite helpless. He was not showing off!
Even if he really knew how to show off, he wouldn't be with her.
He said: "If you don't want it, I'll take it back."
Just reach out and take it.
Tang Jiao's hands were quick, and she pressed the small box at once, and Huo Xiao's fingers touched Tang Jiao's fingertips.
Warm little hands.
He took back his hand: "Open it and take a look."
Tang Jiao obeyed his words and opened the small box.
Inside the small box is a delicate red velvet bag.
Tang Jiao asked softly: "Is this...?"
Pull off the drawstring.
…a jade pendant.
A small jade gourd three to four centimeters in size.
The jasper is transparent and the water head is excellent.
Tang Jiao lifted it up, raised it very high, and looked at the jade pendant under the light. There was no impurity at all.
Tang Jiao was not very knowledgeable, but just by looking at it, she knew that this thing must be a good product.
This little thing is simply addictive.
She looked at Huo Xiao brightly and asked, "Given it to me?"
Huo Xiao nodded: "Yes, it's a New Year's gift for you. I looked it over with someone and they said it's Hetian jade. You can wear it for fun."
Tang Jiao really likes it, but it won't be cheap.
As the saying goes, gold is valuable but jade is priceless.
There's no reason for her to accept something as valuable as Huo Xiao, right
Tang Jiao pondered for a moment, put it back, reluctantly pushed it to Huo Xiao, shook her head, and decisively refused: "I don't want it."
Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows.
Tang Jiao added, "I can't ask for something so valuable from you."
Huo Xiao smiled: "Last time you exchanged nationally accepted silver notes from me. The price is not low, right?"
Tang Jiao smiled lightly, taking it for granted: "Of course it's different. I used the weapon in exchange for it that time. I couldn't help it. Who asked me to find out first! We are a legitimate exchange. This time I accept your gift. , this is not appropriate. Although we are friends, we cannot accept such valuable things from you."
Tang Jiao felt that she was a bit strange, and she couldn't tell what she wanted to do. But she always has the boundaries that should exist.
Huo Xiao stared at Tang Jiao and said, "You put it away, I..."
Huo Xiao didn't move and said, "You are my savior anyway."
Tang Jiao sighed and thought about how to answer.
Huo Xiao continued: "Don't even ask me to take a jade pendant from me. You can kill me even if you want."
Tang Jiao was stunned.
After a while, he smiled crisply and said, "You're so good, what do I want to do with your life? You can't eat or drink anything."
Huo Xiao also laughed, and he said: "It is undeniable that in my heart, nothing can rival the Huo family. But I will always keep your life-saving grace in my heart. Tang Jiao, please don't be polite to me." . Not to mention a small jade gourd, the rest...as long as it doesn't involve the Huo family, it's nothing."
Huo Xiao insisted on pushing the jade gourd to Tang Jiao again. He could see that Tang Jiao liked it very much.
Just for a moment, his little face lit up, and his eyes were even brighter.
"Really, just a small gift, a New Year's gift."
Tang Jiao fell silent and hesitated.
Huo Xiao said: "Oh no, why are you such a girl! Aren't you always very cool? Why would you hesitate because of a jade pendant?"
He simply used the provocation method.
Tang Jiao complained: "I am a girl! Do I have to be a man? I am obviously a young and beautiful girl."
But having said that, Tang Jiao found that she was much more indecisive now.
When she first came back, she always felt like there was no tomorrow after today, and she was much more free and easy. No matter what happens, don't care too much, pay attention to your grudges and do whatever you want.
But as time goes by, people may become more comfortable and have more worries.
Thinking about it this way, I felt that it was unnecessary for me to do this.
Yes, it's just a jade gourd.
Tang Jiao said softly: "Okay, thank you."
She opened it again and said, "I like it very much."
Huo Xiao raised the corner of his mouth, feeling a little happy in his heart.
The two of them had a great time as host and guest. It was almost nine o'clock when they left. Tang Jiao saw that Huo Xiao didn't bring the crutch and said, "Your foot..."
Shaking his head, he felt that the question he asked was actually quite poignant.
Everyone has their own difficult things that cannot be explained to outsiders.
For Huo Xiao, it was probably his feet.
"Why don't you use crutches? It's nothing. Don't worry, you still have the same momentum."
Now that I've mentioned it all, I don't think about it too much and just say what needs to be said.
Huo Xiao glanced at Tang Jiao.
Tang Jiao smiled: "Really, I don't need to lie. Things like momentum are very imaginary. No matter what you do, you still have it. Don't worry about using crutches to convince the crowd. You are still very good! Mr. Xiao Where are ordinary people!"
Huo Xiao didn't say anything, but he clenched his hands into fists. After a while, he suddenly laughed and said, "You're not leaving yet?"
Tang Jiao sighed and the two of them went downstairs together.
"Huh? Who do I think you are? It turns out to be Mr. Xiao. What a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here."
Fourth Master Liu was about to go upstairs when he saw Huo Xiao and said hello with a smile.
When his eyes fell on Tang Jiao, he nodded slightly.
Huo Xiao smiled and said: "It's not a coincidence, we are all in Shanghai, we will meet sooner or later."
After a pause, he said: "I wonder if Fourth Master is free, can we get together some other time?"
Fourth Master Liu's eyes wandered over Tang Jiao and Huo Xiao, and he laughed and said yes.
He looks cheerful and informal.
Huo Xiao: "Then I will contact Fourth Master another day and say goodbye first."
He put his fingers on Tang Jiao's shoulders, and then motioned for her to leave.
Tang Jiao felt it and went downstairs normally.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Ye Jing coming in. Ye Jing knew Huo Xiao and Tang Jiao, so he immediately said hello: "Master Xiao, Miss Tang."
It's quite strange that they are together.
His eyes wandered to them for a moment, then looked away.
Huo Xiao ignored her, not to mention that in his opinion Ye Jing was just an actor. Just talking about her actions against the Huo family, he wanted to kill this person.
The same goes for Tang Jiao. She doesn't have a good impression of Ye Jing.
Neither of them responded, Ye Jing was a little embarrassed, but seemed to take it for granted.
Huo Xiao has always been very indifferent to others and very indifferent to others.
Tang Jiao was also famous for being arrogant.
She smiled and gave up her seat. Seeing the two of them leaving together, she gently went upstairs.
At this time, Tang Jiao was sitting in Huo Xiao's car and whispered: "She must have made an appointment with Mr. Liu, right?"
Huo Xiao nodded: "Probably."
Tang Jiao pursed her lips and sighed: "Sir Liu and Master Qi are indeed brothers-in-law!"
Huo Xiao was stunned, but Tang Jiao didn't say anything. She rolled down the window, looked at the neon lights outside the window, and sighed: "It's really incomprehensible."
From Yuan Feifei to Ye Jing.
They really share resources.
Is it interesting for brothers to sleep with the same woman
"I don't understand."
