Bring your bestie to play melon in the domineering love story
Chapter 175 Ah Li, I will always wait for you
The night is getting darker.
Huo Xingzhou stood on the balcony, tall and slender, his black shirt making his deep eyebrows and eyes look even more indifferent.
He took a long drag on his cigarette.
The remorse and self-blame that surged up in him almost overwhelmed him.
He put out his cigarette and caught a glimpse of the bougainvillea in the corner of the balcony. The pink and white flowers were delicate and round, and he thought of the time they spent together.
In fact, he knew from the beginning that Jiang Ruoli was deliberately seducing him, but he pretended not to know and just watched her acting affectionate in front of him, always thinking that everything would return to the way it was, back to the days when they were in love.
But she ignored the fact that her inner wounds had never healed.
And her misunderstanding and hatred of herself in the past.
Huo Xingzhou looked up at the sky, the scarlet flames between his fingers flickered, and his brown eyes were shrouded in green smoke, hazy and unreal.
"Ari, where have you been?"
"I was wrong. Can you please come back?"
The irritability in his heart came up again. Huo Xingzhou pinched his brows, put out the cigarette butt in the potted plant on the windowsill, and turned back to the study.
On the desk were the marriage contract they had signed and the divorce agreement signed by Jiang Ruoli.
Originally, in addition to the money agreed in the agreement, he also prepared 5% of the shares of the Huo Group for her. Perhaps because he was afraid that Jiang Ruoli would break up after getting the money, he also added an additional clause to the agreement.
Voluntary divorce.
I thought that I could find an excuse to keep the person by my side.
If she wants to act, she will definitely not refuse me.
But things often develop unexpectedly.
Fu Yao returned home early, the plot deviated, her favorability disappeared, and she had to forcibly awaken her memory. There was also an explanation that she didn't have time to say...
He thought everything was under his control, but Jiang Ruoli looked gentle, but in fact she had the personality of a stubborn little donkey. She would never bow to him or give in. Past memories made her feel betrayed, and she finally chose to escape.
He couldn't find her again.
There was no trace of her anywhere in the entire capital.
Has she never believed in her own sincerity?
During that period of time together, she was not the only one who was wishful thinking, he had also fallen for her.
Why not give him a chance to explain?
Every bit of Jiang Ruoli's love for him in the past was like a knife, stabbing into his heart. He couldn't move it, and he couldn't pull it out. Every touch caused him excruciating pain. Such memories would continue to torment him day and night.
Old Mrs. Huo stood at the door of the study. When she heard no movement from inside, she pushed the door open curiously, only to see Huo Xingzhou sitting at the desk with one hand supporting his forehead. The wind from the balcony blew into the room, and the floor was littered with scattered documents.
"What's going on? Why are you hiding in the room alone? What if you have a fever again?" The old lady was so anxious that she turned around and was about to call for help.
"I am fine."
The low voice was chilling.
Huo Xingzhou stood up, said nothing, walked out of the study and returned to the bedroom.
He didn't have the energy to take a shower, and didn't even take off the clothes he had been wearing all day. He just lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze...
the next day.
Fu Yao moved into Huo Xingzhou's private estate in the name of taking care of him.
The servant was very enthusiastic and led her upstairs. "Miss Fu, please come in."
Fu Yao stood at the door of the master bedroom on the second floor, pretending to be surprised, "Did you make a mistake?"
This is Huo Xingzhou's room.
She had been here once before and only stayed at the door for a while. At that time, she and Huo Xingzhou were not yet engaged, so it was inappropriate for her to enter his room.
But things are different now.
The servant said politely, "This is what Mr. Huo meant."
Fu Yao was secretly happy.
So, Huo Xingzhou is planning to...
A blush appeared on Fu Yao's cheeks. She was about to speak when she saw Liang Xiong hurried up.
"Miss Fu."
He didn't call her Mrs. Huo. Fu Yao's face turned a little ugly. Then she heard him say, "I'm here to help Mr. Huo with his luggage. He also asked me to tell you that there's a problem with the branch of Huo's company on Wall Street. He has to go there in person to deal with it. He won't be returning to China in the short term. If you like to live here, please feel free to do so."
Fu Yao was stunned and wanted to speak, but didn't know how to start.
Looking at Liang Xiong's eyes, she felt humiliated again.
Going abroad is such a big thing, but instead of saying it himself, he asked his secretary to convey it?
Her face immediately darkened. If possible, she really wanted to ask Huo Xingzhou in person whether he really cared about her as his fiancée. Why was he unwilling to even speak to her?
After thinking about it, why bring shame upon yourself!
The man she had loved for so many years, never expecting anything in return, was unwilling to even give her a glance.
This love is really cheap!
......
Two years later.
The wealthy area of Wall Street.
The driver parked the car at the door.
Jiang Ruoli was wearing a black and white business suit, a white shirt and a knee-length skirt. She bent down and sat in the car.
He is clearly worth hundreds of billions, but he works like a social animal, getting up early and going to bed late.
It's really the resentment of the eight people.
Beside her, Tang Jiujiu yawned, took a sip of her special black coffee, and turned to watch the bustling city scenery receding through the car window. She sighed, "I didn't expect time to fly so fast. In the blink of an eye, my dear bestie has become the Vice President of Wanzhen Group, and I can finally enjoy life with you, enjoying the good life with you."
"Huh?" Jiang Ruoli said bluntly, "Lie down and enjoy life? Are you serious?"
After that, she handed her a document in her hand.
"Look at this. The board of directors called me this morning and said there was a problem with our contract with the other company. They doubted our business capabilities and might cancel the cooperation. Did you know about this?"
"The other company?" Tang Jiujiu frowned and flipped through the documents. "Huo Group? Damn! Could it be the Huo Group I'm thinking of?"
Jiang Ruoli raised her eyebrows.
Tang Jiujiu: "So what does the board of directors mean? They want us to handle this matter?"
Jiang Ruoli gave her a look that said you understand.
Cooperating with the Huo Group was her first job as vice president. The board of directors hoped that she would perform well and strive to obtain a long-term contract with the Huo Group. This was to allow her to prove her ability and to consolidate her position in the company.
But why is it the Huo family?
Jiang Ruoli said she had a headache.
"It's okay, it's okay." Tang Jiujiu patted her shoulder comfortingly, "So what if it's the Huo family? This isn't the capital, are you going to run into Huo Xingzhou again? Let's make a quick decision and settle the contract first. As for future cooperation, you can let someone else come forward."
"Ah."
Jiang Ruoli could only comfort herself in this way.
She hadn't had any contact with Huo Xingzhou in two years, so she shouldn't be so unlucky as to meet him on her first collaboration...
