Chapter 769: Different To Her
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yan Xiu was not concerned about the fact that everyone was already
downstairs.
At this moment, he was sitting in his room and looking at the manuscript in front of him that had not been touched for a few days. He was in deep thought.
Although his works were very popular every time they were released and he had even won many awards, it was not like Yan Xiu wouldn’t lack inspiration, such as now.
Regarding the design of the skirt and even the waist, Yan Xiu frowned and couldn’t come up with a good result.
Just as he was thinking hard, his cell phone suddenly rang.
Yan Xiu looked at his cell phone slowly. Although there was no expression on his face, he seemed to be puzzled as to why someone was still sending him a message at this time.
In order to prevent himself from being disturbed while designing, Yan Xiu’s phone was almost permanently set to “Do Not Disturb”. There were very few times when it vibrated and rang, and there were only a few people who contacted him.
Yan Xiu thought for a moment and reluctantly gave up on the manuscript. He reached out to take a look at his cell phone.
[I went to the shop today and realized that you were not around.]
At the end of the message was Shen Xi’s name.
Seeing this name, Yan Xiu belatedly remembered that he had casually exchanged contact details with the other party after watching the exhibition previously.
In the end, he did exchange his contact information, but he forgot to apply the
’Do Not Disturb’ setting for her…
Thinking of this, Yan Xiu still replied politely.
[I’m at home.]
His words were concise and cold. It was definitely Yan Xiu s style.
Seeing this reply, Shen Xi, who was holding her cell phone in anticipation and uneasiness, heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
[I’m sorry. Did I disturb you?]
Yan Xiu looked at the other party’s second message and frowned.
Strictly speaking, even without Shen Xi’s message, he still had no progress just
now.
[No.] He replied.
Yan Xiu didn’t notice at all that he had already treated Shen Xi “differently”.
After all, if someone usually sent him a message and it was when he was designing, Yan Xiu would have thrown that person aside and ignored him.
“Phew—” Shen Xi heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the other party’s answer. When she sent this message, she was still wondering if she would disturb Yan Xiu’s creation.
Later on, after asking Xiao Gu and hearing that he was fine, Shen Xi mustered her courage and sent a message to the other party.
Since they had finally managed to talk, Shen Xi was racking her brains to think of what topic to start when she suddenly received a message from Yan Xiu.
[Eating.]
It was Murong Qiao knocking on the door.
She didn’t know that when she arrived, it was at the critical moment for Shen
Xi.
When Yan Xiu heard a sound at the door, he immediately stood up to open it.
“Big Brother, everyone is down there.” Murong Qiao pointed down. “Shall we go down to eat?”
Yan Xiu nodded indifferently. He had never been picky about food.
Although he had some social anxiety, they were all family tonight, so Yan Xiu didn’t have any scruples.
The main event venue downstairs had already been moved to the backyard of the Murong Residence.
After knowing that there would be a barbecue tonight, Uncle Yang asked the servants to prepare a long table that could accommodate everyone and two barbecue grills.
As for the drinks and food they had bought, they had already been placed aside in an orderly manner.
Murong Qiao and Yan Xiu were the last to arrive.
“Qiaoqiao, I left a spot for you!” Xian Yu raised his hand and called out to his Little Sister almost the moment she appeared in his vision.
The standard long table was divided into two sides. Murong Zheng and Murong Chuan sat at the side, leaving a spot for Yan Xiu.
As for the other side, seeing that An Nuo was on her right and her Big Brother was beside her, Murong Qiao secretly gave Xian Yu a look that said, “Well done.”
With her and her Fifth Brother’s help, it was difficult for An Nuo and her Big Brother not to interact.
Yan Xiu was already in position. Just as Murong Qiao was about to sit down, she suddenly received a call from Huo Yichen.
“Qiaoqiao, come out and pick me up?” Huo Yichen’s smiling voice sounded from her cell phone.
Murong Qiao was stunned and slowed down.
Her body moved almost faster than his consciousness. When Murong Qiao reacted, she was already standing at the entrance of the Murong Residence and met Huo Yichen’s eyes.
Perhaps Huo Yichen’s arrival was too sudden, so Murong Qiao stood at the door in a daze for a moment.
“You don’t welcome me?” Huo Yichen opened his arms to his girlfriend jokingly.
Only then did Murong Qiao come back to her senses. Then, she shook her head hard and pounced over. “How is that possible?”
“You were clearly the one who said that you weren’t free previously.” She threw the words back.
The night before, Murong Qiao had said that she was going home. However, Huo Yichen’s expression was indifferent at that time and he was still talking to Ye Zhen. He had never mentioned coming back with Murong Qiao.
“How could I leave you alone?” Huo Yichen chuckled.
He reached out to touch Murong Qiao’s hair and lowered his head to kiss her forehead. Only then did they separate in satisfaction and walk towards the car together.
“It’s not suitable for me to appear in the Huo Corporation recently,” Huo Yichen said casually.
Ever since Huo Xiuyuan appeared and the collaboration was snatched away, many people in the Huo Corporation who had received the news began to become restless.
Coupled with the fact that he didn’t know what Xu Dong and Huo Xiuyuan were planning, it was rare for Huo Yichen to take a break recently.
Fortunately, Uncle Yang was very prescient. The long table was wide enough for even two or three more guests.
As soon as the seats were changed, Huo Yichen sat beside Murong Qiao and blended into the crowd.
The stardust in the night sky was sparse. At this moment, only a few spots of light could be seen.
Only the moon that emitted a cold light stood gently above their heads and completed its work dutifully.
It was already nine o’clock, but at this time, many people were still working overtime.
“If not for the good treatment given by the Huo Corporation, I feel that I would have died in overtime sooner or later.”
An employee stood beside the coffee machine and complained softly with the still hot coffee in his hand.
Working overtime in a big city was normal, and the employees had only said it casually.
Another person nodded in agreement. “But I heard that many people have gone to the other side recently, right? They said that the treatment is better than the Huo Corporation.”
“You really believe that?” The employee rolled his eyes at him.
The other person was also talking about some gossip. Seeing this, he didn’t say anything else, let alone the surrounding environment. It was inevitable that the walls had ears.
After resting beside the coffee machine for a moment, their minds were blank. However, they couldn’t help but look around. They were originally glancing around unintentionally when they suddenly caught sight of a figure.
“Hey, look at that.” He nudged the person beside him. “Isn’t that General Manager Huo’s daughter?”
Huo Qiuguang had a high status in the Huo Corporation. Although he was not on the board of directors, he had been the general manager of the Finance Department for almost 20 years without changing his position.
Huo Ya, who had entered their vision, didn’t know that she had been seen. She held the document in her hand and pretended to hold her phone casually, but she looked around with the help of the camera.
Her heart beat faster in her chest, making Huo Ya purse her lips. Although she had been here a few times, it was different this time..
