Her gaze fell on Helian Yi, then shifted away without a greeting.
Since he didn’t like her, she naturally wouldn’t make a fool of herself.
Lu Xingzhi stood up, smiled shyly, and said to Helian Xi, "Sorry! I fell asleep."
"No worries, I just got here, too." Helian Xi didn’t mind, looking enviously at Lu Xingzhi’s bright white arms, and said, "Did we attend the sa military training? Why are you not as tanned? Look at my face, it’s almost as dark as coal."
"My face is tanned too. It’s just that wearing camouflage completely covers , so my body didn’t get as dark," Lu Xingzhi replied.
Looking at Lu Xingzhi’s swan-like neck, Helian Xi felt jealous.
If she had such a long neck, she’d wear tank tops every day.
So pretty!
However, "Little Zhi Liao, did you grow taller?"
Helian Xi looked Lu Xingzhi up and down, "I feel like you’re now much taller than !"
"No way! Maybe it’s because this dress makes look tall." Lu Xingzhi hoped she had grown taller, but it seed unlikely.
"Really? Helian Yi, stand back-to-back with Little Zhi Liao, see if she’s taller than ." Helian Xi suggested.
Although Helian Yi found her boring, he still said, "She’s about five-six cm taller than you."
Helian Xi felt deflated, "So, Little Zhi Liao, you might be one-seventy."
"Really?" Lu Xingzhi bead with excitent, "Did I really grow taller?"
Helian Xi didn’t want to speak anymore; she wouldn’t have ntioned it if she knew. Now, she’s the only one upset.
"You’ve always been taller than Xiao Xi, haven’t you checked your height? After military training, you seem to have grown one or two cm," Huo Jincheng had noticed but hadn’t ntioned it.
Lu Xingzhi’s eyes curved as she smiled brightly.
"Little Zhi Liao, let’s go shopping! I have to indulge to vent my envy." Helian Xi ground her teeth, "Why haven’t I grown taller?"
"Let’s go!"
Huo Jincheng took her hand, "Buy anything you like, okay?"
"Alright." Lu Xingzhi nodded obediently.
"Go on, have fun," Huo Jincheng said.
After they left, Huo Jincheng looked at Helian Yi, "Xiao Xi was here to invite your third sister-in-law shopping, what about you? To see ?"
"Third brother, why do you see as a thief, always guarding against ?" Helian Yi ssaged, feeling increasingly unwelco among family.
"At least you have so self-awareness." Huo Jincheng returned to his office chair, "Speak, what do you want?"
"I’m just here to sit, nothing else," Helian Yi smiled unnaturally.
"Better be honest!" Huo Jincheng said in a deep voice.
"Cough..." Helian Yi had sat down but stood up from the sofa again, pacing a few steps, then tentatively spoke.
"Third brother, isn’t Emperor looking for a spokesperson lately?"
"You want to be our company’s spokesperson?" Huo Jincheng doubted Helian Yi was here for himself.
"Not ," Helian Yi said cautiously, "It’s Sister Xinzhi, her temperant and image fit well. But it’s fine if you don’t agree, I’m just ntioning it."
