Although it was unexpected that she had a falling out with Gao Moran, she felt that it didn't matter anymore.
Ever since the day she decided to let go, she had never intended to turn back.
Since she didn't turn around, what did it matter if Gao Moran Xin didn't trust her?
The next afternoon, she followed the address sent by Huo Tingshen and poured two bus trips before coming to this French restaurant.
When Huo Tingshen arrived, she was sitting by the Dongqing Altar at the entrance of the restaurant.
He got out of the car and walked over to her. The waiter drove his car away to park it.
"Why aren't you going in?"
She laughed. "I wanted to mourn my purse for a few minutes before I went in, but you came over."
"For the purse?"
She pointed to the door of the restaurant and mysteriously said, "Let me calculate with my fingers, this restaurant should be a high-end restaurant."
He smiled. "So?"
"To treat someone to a meal in a place like this, I would feel my heart ache."
"Then are you going to treat me?"
She shrugged her shoulders, "After all, money is earned by humans. Since I owe you a favor, I naturally have to invite them. That's why I should mourn for my purse. Now, let's go, I'll send them to the guillotine."
She took a deep breath, turned, and walked up the steps to the dining room.
Huo Tingshen couldn't help but smile as he looked at her back.
Is he old? There were too few women he knew.
He had never seen a woman as interesting as her.
As they entered the dining room, she glanced at the menu and gave him the right to order.
"Come on."
"Are you sure you want me to order? Aren't you afraid that I'll order something expensive?"
She curled her lips. "I don't know how to read. If you feel that your conscience won't hurt, then you can just order whatever you want. In any case, at worst, I'll just stay here and wash the dishes. It doesn't matter."
Her words were filled with bravery.
He smiled and lowered his head to order.
She couldn't understand why the menu would be in French even though this was clearly China.
Was it uncultured to bully her?
Huo Tingshen quickly ordered the dishes.
"Would you like a glass of champagne?"
She shrugged. "Sure."
The French food was slow.
She wasn't in a hurry. After taking a sip of champagne, she asked, "What did you tell our principal? How did she change her mind so easily?"
"Curious?"
"A little," she nodded. "Is it convenient to say?"
"I only said three sentences. I said I liked Wen Qing, and the spot she left in school was exchanged back. Otherwise, Huo Family and Gao Family would have broken up just like that."
Her face turned red. No wonder Gao Moran came to find her yesterday.
"Why are you blushing?"
"Oh, because of the wine." She lifted her glass and took another sip.
"The principal didn't say anything and just agreed?"
"She said a lot of bad things about you."
She frowned. "What did she say?"
"Curious again?"
She was a bit embarrassed. "Not really."
"How about this, if you promise me one thing, I'll tell you what I talked about with her."
"I don't want it."
"What? Are you afraid that I'll make you promise me your life?"
She looked at him. Was this man really the almighty Third Young Master Huo in the legend?
Why didn't she encounter Third Young Master Huo like this?
He saw that she was a bit nervous so he smiled: "It seems that you have really made a co
ection."
"I didn't."
"Don't worry, I won't force anyone to make things difficult for me. I've said it before, you will marry me willingly and repay me with your body."
"There won't be a day like that."
"Let's not study this problem for now. Our company has been looking for a temporary lecturer. Do you want to work part-time? If you do, I'll tell you what she said."
"Hmph." She tilted her head and smiled.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Stop messing with me. How can I be the lecturer for such a big company like yours? Even if it's just temporary work, there should be at least a few hundred people competing for it."
"I opened the back door for you. This is the first time I'm using the public for personal benefits. The salary is very high and it's settled according to the number of days. How is it, is it tempting?"
She looked at him and said confidently, "You must have other motives."
He calmly swirled the wine cup and smiled.
"Talking to smart people is open. If you come to our company, you have to bring me food every noon. "
"Bring some food?" She was surprised.
"That's right. You come here to work for a month and bring me a month's worth of food. Or, if you don't come, I'll come to your place every night to get food. You choose one of the two."
Wen Qing said in a speechless ma
er, "Don't you think you're being overbearing like this?"
"I'm used to it. If you feel that it's unfair, then I can give you another choice. If you come back to my house, I'll take care of everything. You can cook for me three times a week."
She stared at him, put down her glass, and folded her arms.
Huo Tingshen smiled charmingly, "I know. You're afraid that I'll pester you, but even if you don't come to our company, I won't give you up. As for the reason, you probably guessed it already. Wen Qing, I've fallen for you."
Wen Qing frowned. She tightened her grip around her arm.
This could be considered as... Confession?
"But having you cook for me has nothing to do with liking you. In the past 27 years, I have never eaten ordinary food. That day, the food you cooked made me feel as if I was living like an ordinary person. I truly feel that eating ordinary food at home is very good.
Can you imagine? From the moment I was born, I sat at a large dining table, with a table set for every meal and a pile of housekeepers and servants at my side. However, even though those dishes are delicious, they are completely devoid of any humanity. "
Upon hearing his words, Wen Qing's pupils subconsciously contracted.
She looked at him with a bit of heartache, feeling an inexplicable sense of pity for him.
In the past, her mother had to go to work every day in order to support her.
Therefore, she ate alone, bathed alone and slept alone every day.
The feeling of a person... She understood.
"Then... When do I start working? "
"It's best if we start tomorrow."
She pursed her lips. "Now you can tell me what the headmaster said about me."
"I know a bit about Lin Youle. What she said, you don't have to listen to it. It's all a lie."
"How can you be sure it's a lie?"
"Does anyone have a better say than me when she says that you don't care about your private life?" He raised the center of his brows. "I'm your first man."
Embarrassed, she glanced to the side. "Lower your voice. Sigh, is that all she said?"
"What can someone like her say? All you have to do is emphasize your origin to me. "
"She said I was an orphan again?"
"What? You've mentioned it before?"
She nodded.
"How could she have such a misunderstanding? Did you not tell Gao Moran about your identity?"
"I can't just say that I'm an illegitimate daughter after all, right? It's not like I have a glorious identity."
Huo Tingshen smiled in satisfaction. If he knew that she was from Bai Family, then Lin Youle's attitude towards Wen Qing would have changed. That way, Gao Moran probably wouldn't lose Wen Qing.
It seemed like a beautiful coincidence.
