The only favorite at the tip of my heart: Mr. Huo, don't make trouble

Xia Nuanxin hurriedly stood up and said, "This is my guest."

Huo Beixiao raised his eyebrows and wanted to explode, but because of the presence of outsiders, he just gave Xia Nuanxin a hard look.

Lin Jiao was still a little afraid of Huo Beixiao, so she hurriedly stood up and said goodbye to Xia Nuanxin: "I'm full, see you another day."

After all, without waiting for Xia Nuanxin to answer, she hurriedly left the office.

Xia Nuanxin failed to persuade him to stay, and after he left, he glared fiercely at Huo Beixiao: "Why, I can't even have a meal with my friends in the office now?"

Huo Beixiao looked at the closed door with thoughtful eyes.But when he turned his head, his expression suddenly changed, and he said with a smile, "It's fine...but...you gave my meal to others, where should I eat?"

Xia Nuanxin was dumbfounded: "Didn't you go out to socialize with clients?"

Huo Beixiao waved his hand irritably, picked up a bowl and chopsticks that Xia Nuanxin had eaten, and took a chopstick of wild rice stems to his mouth without hesitation: "How can we eat when we talk about business with those big guys with oily heads and noodles?" Dinner?"

Xia Nuanxin silently took a pair of clean bowls and chopsticks from the side, and was about to order another dish when Huo Beixiao suddenly raised his head, stared at Xia Nuanxin seriously, and said, "Don't go too far with Lin Jiao. close."

Xia Nuanxin was taken aback, bit her lip and said nothing.

She knew what Huo Beixiao meant.If it were her five years ago, she might have to defend Lin Jiao immediately without even thinking about it.

But in the past five years, even in the relatively peaceful ranch, she has seen many intrigues for power and profit, not to mention the turbulent real estate industry.

But at this time in the tea room, Lin Jiao looked around and saw that there was no one around, and hurriedly closed the door of the tea room.

"How is it?" Huo Jingchen calmly stood by the bar with a cup of coffee.

Lin Jiao took a few steps forward and said softly: "I dare not ask too clearly. But Xia Nuanxin said that the signing will be today, the construction will start the day after tomorrow, and the delivery... should be tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Huo Jingchen raised his eyebrows thoughtfully, "Tomorrow..." His mouth gradually revealed a smile.

"But... why do you ask me to ask this?" Lin Jiao asked.

Huo Jingchen smiled: "It's nothing, just ask casually. After all, I am also a member of Huo's, so it is understandable to know the progress of the project."

Lin Jiao twitched her lips and said with a smile: "Brother Huo still treats me as an outsider? Or as Xia Nuanxin, that innocent girl who doesn't know the world? If you are still hiding it like this, then don't come looking for me next time." me."

Without saying a word, Huo Jingchen strode forward and pushed Lin Jiao against the bar.

Lin Jiao didn't struggle, and looked straight into Huo Jingchen's eyes.

She has seen this kind of powerful and ambitious people a lot. The softer you are, the less people will take you seriously.Lin Yao let her get in touch with many kinds of people, and Lin Jiao gradually figured out different ways to deal with people with different personalities.

Huo Jingchen looked at Lin Jiaorou, a weak and weak girl, who was blocked in the tea room by a big man like him, and was not afraid at all, and a tinge of appreciation suddenly rose in his heart: "Why should I trust you?"

Lin Jiao raised her slender chin high, put her head close to Huo Jingchen's ear, and whispered: "Just because I hate Xia Nuanxin, I don't want her to have a better life. Is this reason... enough?"

Huo Jingchen's rough eyebrows twitched, and there was a hint of malice in his eyes. His palms were clasped around Lin Jiao's slender waist, and they gradually tightened. His tone was full of threats: "Sure enough...a war between women , is the scariest thing."

After getting off work that evening, Huo Jingchen hurried to a park to make an appointment with someone, and that person was none other than Sun Qiang whom he met at the Blue Mountain Cafe that day.

Sun Qiang put his hands in his pockets, sitting on the bench in the park trembling, when he saw Huo Jingchen's car stopped, he trotted forward and said, "Master Huo."

Huo Jingchen didn't even get out of the car, just sat in the driver's cab, looking shrewdly at the rearview mirror from time to time.

"I hear you know quite a few people in the lumber business?"

Sun Qiang immediately said loudly: "Of course, otherwise, how dare I offer you that guaranteed ticket? You can't get that price even if you ask all over the province."

"I'm not talking about this..." Huo Beixiao said in a deep voice, "There is something I need you to do."

Sun Qiang's expression immediately became solemn, and he nodded without hesitation.

That night, Xia Nuanxin greeted Xia Luocheng for dinner, and the two were sitting in the living room watching TV.

The weather forecast said that from tonight to tomorrow, there will be heavy to heavy rain, accompanied by strong winds of magnitude nine to ten, so residents should pay attention to travel safety.

Xia Luocheng asked Xia Nuanxin while eating cantaloupe: "Mom, it's raining so hard, can I not go to kindergarten tomorrow?"

Xia Nuan didn't look sideways: "No, you go there in Uncle Liu's car, and you won't be able to get wet."

Xia Nuanxin's words broke through her little thoughts, and Xia Luocheng lowered her head in frustration.

At this time, there was a flash of light outside, and then, a burst of thunder that covered the sky and the sun came down, scaring Xia Nuan's heart.

"It is going to rain……"

"Did Uncle Huo bring an umbrella?" Charlotte asked immediately.

"Why. You still want to send him an umbrella?"

Xia Luocheng looked at Xia Nuanxin with burning eyes: "Is it possible?"

"Silly boy, your Uncle Huo has a car. Don't worry."

At the same time, in a warehouse where the lumber factory is stacked, the personnel on duty are taking corresponding rainproof measures.

Due to the small size of the warehouse and the large volume of goods this time, many timbers could not be stacked into the warehouse, so they could only be placed on the terrace in front of the warehouse.

The staff can only cover as much rain cloth as possible.

A middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s greeted his colleagues who were busy not far away with an unlit cigarette in his mouth: "Xiao Lin, who is on duty today?"

The colleague named Xiao Lin replied far away: "It seems to be Zhang Liang. He and Li Ming dropped out of a shift yesterday."

"Oh..." The middle-aged man answered in a low voice. He waited for a while, then suddenly turned and walked outside the factory.

He walked around the street not far away, and when he came back, he carried a few catties of liquor and five catties of pork head meat.

Xiaolin, who greeted him earlier, had already returned home from get off work, and he had tied the timbers on the terrace firmly together. If it wasn't for the typhoon, no matter how heavy the rain, it shouldn't get wet.

The man looked around, except that the lights in the duty room were on, and almost everyone else was off work.He walked forward slowly, walked around the bundled timber, and then secretly unfastened the fixed hook while the night was getting dark.In this way, as long as the wind blows, all these rainproof cloths will be blown away.

After finishing all this, the man checked his surroundings again and found that no one was paying attention, so he entered the duty room with wine and meat.

In the duty room, sat a middle-aged man in his thirties. He was watching a football game on TV. When he saw the man coming in with wine and meat, his eyes lit up.

"It's going to rain in a while. I'm going back first, and I'm going to deliver food to my daughter. I just bought this by the way. You can keep it."

The man on duty was very grateful, he ate the pork head and watched the football game with a little wine, not to mention how beautiful it was.

The man looked at it, with a moment of unbearable expression on his face, and finally seemed to think of something, gritted his teeth, turned and went to the warehouse again.

The lights in the warehouse have been turned off, the lights are dark, and all the windows are down.With a flashlight on, the man quietly went under the largest window on the west side, and secretly pulled up the plug.

After doing all this, he left the warehouse without anyone noticing, with his hands behind his back.

It was night, thunder and lightning, strong winds, and heavy rain.

Huo Beixiao worked overtime until late at night, and when he drove home, he got out of the car in the yard to the small place at the door, and he was drenched in the cold.

Aunt Lin hurriedly stepped forward to bring him a clean towel, and Huo Beixiao asked casually, "Where's your wife?"

Aunt Lin pointed to the upstairs.

Huo Beixiao nodded, thinking that Xia Nuanxin had gone upstairs to rest, and there was a trace of loneliness on his face.

Does she not worry about him at all?
When he finished washing and went up to the second floor, and turned to the door of the study to send emails overnight, he found a little light in the study.

Huo Beixiao was overjoyed, and gently pushed open the door of the study.

Under the dim light, Xia Nuanxin hugged a tablet computer, covered her body with an off-white blanket, and fell asleep on the sofa.

At this time, Mrs. Lin came up with supper, looked behind Huo Beixiao and said, "Madam asked me to cook wine, and told me not to tell sir."

Huo Beixiao couldn't laugh or cry, Xia Nuanxin's awkward personality probably couldn't be changed.

He didn't wake Xia Nuanxin up, and gently carried her back to the bedroom.

And he himself worked overtime in the study until late at night, and finally fell asleep lying on the sofa with a slight smell of Xia Nuanxin.

The next day, Xia Nuanxin fell into a drowsy sleep, and suddenly a loud bell rang in her ear.

She touched the phone impatiently, and it was only 06:30. Who is it so early... Before she had time to complain, she subconsciously slid her finger on the screen, and the call was connected.

"Hey?"

On the phone, Qiu Yating's tone was filled with anxiety: "Heartwarming, it's not good. Boss Li from the wood factory called me this morning and said that the wood that was ready for delivery today was soaked by the heavy rain!"

wood?heavy rain?A few words turned in Xia Nuanxin's foggy mind, and it took a long time before it became a word that could be recognized by the brain and passed to the nerve center.

Xia Nuanxin sat up from the bed all at once, and was shocked: "What did you say!"

After being stuffed into her head by Qiu Yating's news, Xia Nuanxin's drowsy drowsiness disappeared immediately, and she subconsciously turned her head to look...

Huo Beixiao was not on the bed.

Then I touched it with my hand, and the tentacles were cold.

Not daring to delay any longer, Xia Nuanxin immediately rolled over and got out of bed.

When she rushed to the company in a hurry, Qiu Yating was already in a hurry and was talking with Li Jianmin, the owner of building materials, and the tone of both of them was not very good.

"The goods will be handed over soon, Boss Li, don't you all know that it will rain last night and today? Forget about the wood outside, why is it all wet inside the warehouse?" Qiu Yating asked with an ugly expression. road.

Boss Li's face was also not good, and he shook his head repeatedly: "The staff obviously took measures to prevent the rain yesterday, and I don't know what happened! They have never made such a simple mistake before!"
