Bold and passionate love: Acting coquettishly in Mr. Huo's arms
Chapter 694 Enough
Ruan Xingchen's heart sank.
Growing up together, how could she not understand? Xiao Bai's current expression proved that he would not change his mind.
What's more, there was clearly a fire burning in his eyes, as if there was a raging ambition burning.
She was a little stunned.
She only cared about him not repeating the mistakes of his previous life and hoped that he could live a simple and happy life, but she never understood what he really wanted.
Now that he has made his decision, as a friend, how can she restrain his wings that want to fly high?
"Have you told Nana and Xiaofeng?"
She finally relented and whispered, "You just came back, so you must have a lot of things to deal with. You won't be back for a while. If you don't say hello in advance, Nana will definitely make a fuss."
The smile on Xiao Bai's face became more genuine.
His eyes were fixed on her, and even though Huo Yan's cold and sharp gaze was too strong to ignore, he never took his eyes away.
"I'll tell them later."
His eyes passed over Ruan Xingchen's beautiful wrist, and he whispered, "This bracelet was not bought with the money they gave me. I saved it myself. I hope you will be lucky and happy in the future."
This bracelet is worth a lot of money.
For Xiao Bai, who grew up in a slum and was unable to go to college, this bracelet emptied out all the savings he had accumulated since childhood.
When he first became aware of his feelings during his teenage years, he had imagined that the money would grow.
When he saves up a certain amount, he will buy a diamond ring and give it to the girl he has liked since childhood.
He once thought that this was his love fund and the beginning of his future life.
now--
He had long lost the qualifications and could only send her blessings as a friend.
He suppressed the bitterness in his heart and tried not to lose his composure.
He raised his hand and took a glass of red wine from the tray of a passing waiter.
He raised his glass towards Huo Yan, his eyes gleaming with the sharpness that only men could understand: "Boss Huo, Han Xing will be handed over to you from now on. Treat her well. If I find out that you treat her badly..."
He was silent for a moment, then he said in a resounding voice as if swearing, "I will definitely come back and take her away, so that you will never see her again."
"You won't get that chance."
Huo Yan's dark eyes darkened, becoming so cold that they seemed to have solidified into substance.
How could he not treat his wife, whom he holds dear to his heart, well?
There will never be such a possibility.
There is no one in this world who can make him leave his wife.
The two men's eyes collided, as if there was invisible smoke and fighting, and neither of them gave in.
"boom."
There was a crisp sound of glass colliding, and the red wine in the transparent high-heeled glass swayed slightly, creating ripples.
Full of fighting spirit, the two men drank the red wine in their glasses at the same time.
With the last swallow, it seemed as if a vow between the men was established.
Xiao Bai felt a little relieved, but also a little indescribable bitterness.
After observing for some time, he could see that Huo Yan cherished and valued Ruan Xingchen.
This made him feel much more at ease, and he also realized more clearly that the extravagant hope in his heart was gradually turning into despair.
He didn't say anything more, said hello to Ruan Xingchen, and went to find Shen Nai and Yu Feng.
Ruan Xingchen looked at the bracelet on her wrist, feeling a little lost. "Xiao Bai has always loved saving money since he was little. When we all collected bottles and sold them to buy snacks, he was the only one who saved every penny."
Even in hot weather, he refused to spend a dime on a popsicle.
She stroked the slender chain twice with her fingertips and felt that this light and delicate bracelet was a bit heavy.
How long has Xiao Bai been accumulating savings to be able to pay this price?
"Since they took him abroad, it means his parents still value him."
Huo Yan put his arm around her waist, resisting the urge to take off the bracelet. He said in a gentle voice, "Only by seeing a wider world can he develop better. This might not be a bad thing."
From the few words Xiao Bai revealed, we can probably guess that his family must be well-off.
After returning to his original family, the achievements he can achieve are far beyond what he could have achieved in the slums.
"I know."
Ruan Xingchen smiled, lowered his hands and said no more.
She knew it, but she still worried that he was unhappy living alone in a foreign country.
Just when she was feeling complicated, a warm hand pinched her chin.
Huo Yan leaned towards her, lifted her face up, and narrowed his dark eyes dangerously.
"I thought I had given Madam enough time."
His tone was filled with jealousy, and he said in a low voice, "The time I have left for Madam to be with other men has run out. Now, Madam, in her heart, eyes, and mind, can only be me, and no one else."
If it weren't for the fact that the boy was going abroad and wouldn't be back for a long time, and that he had grown up with his wife, he wouldn't have been willing to give him even a second.
The wife can only be his, how can she worry about other men?
