On the other hand, Huo Yunting was sitting in the office with his legs crossed. His thin fingers tapped rhythmically on his desk as a faint smile appeared on his face.
Not only did she oversleep, she’s even skipping work.
That’s the spirit!
Standing in front of him, Huo Li noticed the smile on his face and could not help dishing out flatteries again.
“You’re the king, boss! There’s nothing that Brother Ting cannot do, and no woman that Brother Ting cannot tame! What a bad*ss!”
Huo Yunting pulled on his earlobe. The flattery was on point, so he accepted it with less reluctance than usual.
He was being impulsive when he told Huo Chen about their marriage. That was probably why Lu Zhaoyang was still angry at him, and acted in such a detached manner toward him last night.
Women. It’s only normal for them to throw tantrums.
Nevertheless, he came to realize that after knowing her for so long, he did not actually know about her preferences.
Books were unlikely. That management book was only a way to pass the time.
Huo Li noticed the growing frown on his face and asked, “Brother Ting, what are you thinking? Can I help?”
“You…” Huo Yunting took a lazy glance at him. “You ever wooed a girl before? I highly doubt it.”
Huo Li froze mid-laugh. “No need for the reminder, Brother Ting!”
What about jewellery? Huo Yunting thought to himself.
Tsk, I think not.
He never saw her in any kind of jewellery.
When it comes to her preferences… Huo Chen may better than me.
Huo Yunting clenched his fingers tightly and took another look at Huo Li. “Go and get Lin Yazhi in here.”
“What do you need her for? It’s obvious that she’s not experienced in matters of love! I say, with your looks and charisma, you don’t need anything else. Just standing there will get the ladies all googly eyes at you. Winning over your wife is only a matter of time!”
He was not exactly joking. Wherever Huo Yunting went, women flocked to him like sheep.
“You have a point.” Huo Yunting laid back in his chair and narrowed his eyes at him. “Now get going.”
“Ah, I know it’s hard to accept real advice. Please reconsider, Brother Ting!”
Crash! Huo Yunting picked up his pen container and hurled it at him.
“I’m going, I’m going —”
Huo Li avoided the object deftly and left the office swiftly.
How can Lin Yazhi possibly contribute to this? I hope she doesn’t make things worse!
…
While Huo Yunting was trying to devise ways to make her happy, Lu Zhaoyang herself felt bored at home.
She thought she had sorted through a lot of things during the day, but when she heard Huo Yunting’s car arriving home, her mind was still in a muddle.
The thought of her imminent escape made her anxious.
Footsteps approached her leisurely, but she kept her eyes on the TV.
Suddenly, a bouquet of fiery red roses appeared before her. She was momentarily taken aback, and could not help but look at Huo Yunting.
As she did, she quietly slid to the side.
The flowers followed her. Huo Yunting was relentless in getting her attention. Finally, Lu Zhaoyang spoke up.
“You’re blocking my view. Go away!”
She was already past the days of youthful exuberance. Beside, if there was no love between them, no gift would please her, no matter its value.
