Huo Shaojun was silent for a few seconds, but then asked again, "Really don’t want it?"
Jian Liangtong was slightly startled, looking at Huo Shaojun with a strange expression and shaking her head, "We agreed..."
Before Jian Liangtong could finish her sentence, she was suddenly pulled forward with great force, her nose bumping fiercely into the man’s hard chest, causing her tears to fall instantly in pain.
"See, it’s all your fault, almost hit soone."
The voice of a teenage boy in the midst of voice change ca from behind.
At the sa ti,
Jian Liangtong heard the thumping sound of a ball hitting the ground.
"If you hadn’t provoked first, would I have thrown the ball out? You just know how to bla ! Break up!"
The angry voice of a girl resounded clearly.
"Why do you always talk about breaking up?" The boy’s arrogance was extinguished almost instantly.
"Haven’t you done the sa!? Last ti, and three months ago, did you forget?" The girl grew more agitated as she spoke.
"Did I do it as often as you? Just those two tis. What about you, you talk about it every day, aren’t you tired of saying it?"
"What do you an? Are you trying to say I always talk but never do? Fine, Liao Junhao, listen up, from today, I, Liu Beibei, officially break up with you!"
"Break up then!"
"Humph."
The girl stomped fiercely on the floor, flipped her ponytail, and left!
The boy stood in place, looking at the girl’s back with an unpleasant expression, but asked, "Do you want to walk you ho?"
The girl glared at him before continuing to walk.
The boy scratched his head in frustration, then ran forward, picked up the basketball from the ground, nodded to Huo Shaojun, "Sorry, Uncle, almost hit your wife."
After saying this, the boy didn’t wait for Huo Shaojun’s response, holding the basketball, and ran off toward the girl.
And hearing that "Uncle," Huo Shaojun, "..."
And that "almost hit your wife," Jian Liangtong, "..."
Uncle?
Does he look that old?
Wife?
If you don’t understand the situation, don’t speak nonsense, no wonder your girlfriend wanted to break up with you, serves you right!
Huo Shaojun lowered his eyes, staring at Jian Liangtong in his arms, "Are you okay?"
Jian Liangtong reached out to touch her nose, it’s still there, so she was relieved.
Lightly nodding her head against his chest, she was about to withdraw from his embrace.
But as she moved, she felt the hand on her back apply pressure to pull her back.
Jian Liangtong, "..."
Huo Shaojun rested his chin on Jian Liangtong’s hair for a mont before withdrawing before she could signal obvious resistance.
At the sa ti, he withdrew his arms from around Jian Liangtong, stepping back a bit before she did.
Jian Liangtong looked at him, and when her eyes t his deep cold gaze, her face inexplicably grew warm.
"Let’s go." Huo Shaojun curled his lips.
These two words fell into Jian Liangtong’s ears, magnetic and pleasant.
Jian Liangtong stood dumbfounded, her apricot eyes glinting with subtle luminosity.
Before leaving, Huo Shaojun reached out to gently pat Jian Liangtong’s hand.
The gesture was like that of a big brother.
Very warm!
Jian Liangtong felt her face as if it were being roasted over a fire, so hot she dared not touch it.
Huo Shaojun was quite satisfied with Jian Liangtong’s reaction, Feiran’s thin lips curved slightly upwards, as he got into the car in a handso manner under Jian Liangtong’s silly gaze, and drove away.
Jian Liangtong watched the car drive away, unconsciously placing a hand over her left chest.
The vibrations felt from her palm left her sowhat bewildered.
The next day, Jian Liangtong got up at seven o’clock, left her room, and did not see He Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng, thinking they went downstairs to exercise, she didn’t pay it much mind.
She returned to her room to wash and change, then ca out again, but He Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng hadn’t returned.
Jian Liangtong went to the kitchen to find so milk from the refrigerator, preparing to make do with breakfast.
However, just as she was coming out of the kitchen with milk, He Xinyun called.
Jian Liangtong answered the phone with curiosity.
"Tong, you’ll have to handle breakfast yourself today," said He Xinyun.
"..." Jian Liangtong was stunned, "Mom, are you and Dad heading to work already?"
"It’s too early to go to work. Your dad and I got up early, thought there was still plenty of ti before work, so we bought breakfast and went to Hao Hao’s kindergarten to wait for him. After watching him go to school, then your father and I will head to work," said He Xinyun, sounding quite enthusiastic.
Jian Liangtong, "..."
Suddenly, she felt quite impressed with her parents!
New锐 Film and Television headquarters.
Jian Liangtong received a notice last night to co to the company in the morning.
That’s why Jian Liangtong got up so early today.
In the office of New锐 Film and Television’s Vice President Hua Wenlei.
It was Jian Liangtong’s first ti entering the vice president’s office, so she was a bit cautious.
"Please have a seat." Hua Wenlei got up from his office chair, walked to the sofa, and gestured to the sofa opposite, inviting Jian Liangtong to sit.
Jian Liangtong walked over and sat down.
"I won’t beat around the bush,"
As soon as Jian Liangtong sat down, Hua Wenlei spoke.
Jian Liangtong’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, as she looked at him, "Go ahead."
"Here’s the thing, we received a call from the TV station director yesterday about a plan to produce a large-scale military-thed celebrity reality show special, lasting for a month," said Hua Wenlei.
Jian Liangtong listened quietly.
"The director values Huo Tianwang’s influence and believes that if he participates in this reality show, it will certainly attract extensive attention."
"..." Jian Liangtong was already sowhat confused upon hearing this.
The director wants to invite whom to participate in the show, what does it have to do with her?
"Yesterday we contacted Huo Tianwang. He said that if your artist Bai Qiao is willing to participate, he will agree to join," Hua Wenlei said quite directly, not beating around the bush!
Jian Liangtong, "..."
"The director places great importance on this reality show. If your artist participates, it could be a great opportunity for his future developnt,"
Jian Liangtong wasn’t unaware of how popular reality shows are now.
She was just confused.
Why would soone do this?
Also, it wasn’t hard for Jian Liangtong to see that Huo Shaojun intended to help Bai Qiao this ti.
This opportunity is indeed very precious for Bai Qiao; it’d be a sha to miss it!
"What do you think?" Hua Wenlei asked Jian Liangtong.
Jian Liangtong pursed her lips, looked at Hua Wenlei, "I also think it’s a great opportunity, but..."
"Bai Qiao is also a contracted artist of New锐, and you are similarly a contracted agent with New锐, I think you’re aware of this, right?"
Uh...
Exactly.
She has no room for refusal!
Jian Liangtong pressed her lips and nodded understandingly, "I understand, I’ll keep Bai Qiao’s schedule free."
Leaving the company, Jian Liangtong took a deep breath of fresh air.
The phone lightly twirled between her slender fingers, her fair and beautiful face scrunching up in conflict.
After walking a distance away from the company, Jian Liangtong finally resolutely picked up her phone and dialed a certain person’s number.
"What’s up?" The call connected quickly, and a husky voice ca through.
Jian Liangtong blinked; is he still asleep, or just woke up?
"Not speaking?"
"..." Jian Liangtong snapped back, inhaled and said, "I... I’m at the company now, just t with Vice President Hua."
"...Hmm." Huo Shaojun replied softly.
Jian Liangtong’s ears felt slightly hot.
She found herself hesitating to listen to his voice...
How co she never noticed how enticing his voice was before?
She rubbed her arms.
Jian Liangtong tried to collect herself and said, "Why are you helping Bai Qiao?"
"There’s a reason for that."
Jian Liangtong, "..."
How is she supposed to continue this conversation?
The sound of Jian Liangtong’s voice was absent.
Lazy yet clear breaths of Huo Shaojun filtered through the phone into Jian Liangtong’s ears.
Jian Liangtong was sure now; he wasn’t up yet!
"Since you’re still sleeping, I won’t bother you anymore."
Jian Liangtong’s voice was as unnatural as possible.
After all, accepting his help out of nowhere left her feeling a bit guilty and lacking in confidence.
Thinking this, Jian Liangtong quickly added, "I thank you on behalf of Bai Qiao."
Huo Shaojun didn’t speak.
Jian Liangtong suddenly didn’t know if she should just hang up or what to do.
"If you really want to thank , buy so dicine for and bring it over," Huo Shaojun suddenly said, breathing heavily.
dicine?
Jian Liangtong was stunned, "Are you ill?"
"Just a cold," Huo Shaojun said.
Knowing he wasn’t feeling well, Jian Liangtong found his voice sounding increasingly more ill.
"Alright then. Tell your symptoms, I’ll head to the pharmacy right away," Jian Liangtong said, quickening her pace towards the nearby pharmacy.
After buying the dicine according to Huo Shaojun’s symptoms at the pharmacy, Jian Liangtong arrived at the villa to find the large front door open.
Entering, the spacious villa was quiet; Jian Liangtong stood uncertainly by the door, tentatively called out for Nanny Xu.
No response.
Jian Liangtong bit her lip in confusion, lifting her gaze towards the upstairs.
After hesitating for a while, Jian Liangtong removed her shoes at the door, walked barefoot upstairs.
Arriving at Huo Shaojun’s bedroom door, Jian Liangtong raised her hand and knocked.
Waited for a while, still no response.
Jian Liangtong knocked a few more tis, still no answer.
Could he not be in the room?
Jian Liangtong stood by the door, looking around the neighboring rooms.
Then she focused her gaze on the door handle.
Initially ant to just try, Jian Liangtong reached out and turned the handle, unexpectedly finding it open.
Swallowing, Jian Liangtong leaned slightly into the doorway.
She scanned the white bedroom, finally settling her gaze on the large bed in the middle.
Jian Liangtong stared at the seemingly asleep man lying on the bed.
Suddenly, a saying flashed through her mind.
"A man as handso as jade, unparalleled in the world"
Even if this "gentleman" is currently in a deep sleep.
Huo Shaojun is truly good-looking, with sharp and defined features as if sculpted by God’s own hands.
No wonder Jian Liangtong, upon first seeing Huo Shaojun, thought she’d t a "celestial being."
Though it feels laughable recalling it now.
But it certainly attests to Huo Shaojun’s handsoness.
Jian Liangtong looked at Huo Shaojun lying on the bed, gently calling out, "Huo Shaojun..."
Huo Shaojun didn’t respond to her.
His eyes were shut tight.
"Huo Shaojun..."
Huo Shaojun still didn’t react.
Jian Liangtong paused, seeming to talk to herself, or perhaps explaining to Huo Shaojun, said, "I did knock on the door. If you wake up and find in your room, don’t say I didn’t knock."
