The temperament of the two was very different, but they oddly matched.
One was filled with joy, and the other was willing to cooperate.
This scene stung Huo Ningxiâs eyes, causing him to scrape the floor and make a harsh sound as he dragged his chair across the ground.
Without lifting his head, Huo Yunque remained calm.
âNingxi, good morning.â
Huo Ningxi took a deep breath as his eyes fell upon the mature man. After some time, he finally said solemnly, âGood morning.â
The maids brought in their breakfast.
Song Yaoyaoâs plate had a fried egg and some poached vegetables. Next to her, there was a glass of hot milk.
The dining table was really big. Huo Ningxi sat the farthest apart.
He watched as Huo Yunque naturally grabbed the girlâs wrist and pulled her onto the chair next to his.
âSong Yaoyao, eat your breakfast.â
âWhy doesnât our interaction feel any different?â Song Yaoyao complained as she clenched her fists.
He even called her by her full name.
Amusement appeared in Huo Yunqueâs eyes as they fell upon the newspaper. âWhatâs supposed to change?â
Song Yaoyao took a bite of her egg. âYou donât sound sweet at all! People in relationships donât greet each other like this!â
At least, in the novels she read, people in relationships werenât like this.
This was too much!
Snap...
Huo Ningxi snapped his chopsticks in half. His expression looked normal, but his throat twitched a little.
Huo Yunque knocked on the table. âGet Huo Ningxi a new set of chopsticks.â
He then tilted his head and asked, âHow should I be greeting you then?â
Song Yaoyao drank her milk and mumbled, âPrecious, babe, honey, sweetie, baby, or even wifey! The people in novels arenât like you. Youâre notââ
âBabe, eat your breakfast.â
The manâs deep and charming voice sounded. Song Yaoyao opened her mouth and the milk left a white mustache on top of her lips.
Her heart raced as Huo Yunque grabbed a tissue and wiped her mouth for her.
As he wiped, he suddenly spotted a bit of red amongst the white milk...
Song Yaoyaoâs nose was bleeding...
She had been teased too much...
Thumpâ
Huo Ningxi immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks and rushed out of the dining room.
âIâm done. Enjoy your meal!â
He sounded like he was gritting his teeth as he said this.
...
It was Christmas the previous day but Song Jingwan had spent it in hospital.
Yet, she couldnât tell anyone that Xu Yue pushed her because she was holding information against her.
That moment when she looked into Xu Yueâs eyes, it was chilling.
She knew that Xu Yue was extremely hostile toward her.
âGood morning, Jingwan.â
An Ruoyao, took over from the nurse and pushed Song Jingwan into the academic building.
âGood morning, Yaoyao. Did you see Ningxi?â
âYoung Master Huo?â When she heard this, An Ruoyao blinked teasingly. âHeâs not here yet. Why donât we wait for him downstairs so he can carry you up~ I never noticed before, but Young Master has great boyfriend potential!â
âShut up! We are just...friends!â
Song Jingwan glanced at her but she couldnât control her lips from curving and forming a smile.
âLook at yourself. If youâre just friends, then why are you blushing?â An Ruoyao said mischievously. âDonât worry, I bet he likes you too. When have you seen him get close to another girl?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
