After Marrying the Villain, I Became Popular

The phone rang non-stop, and Xia Wan poked her head out of the thin blanket with difficulty.

His voice was full of sleepiness, and it took him a long time to find the phone: "Hello."

"Wan Wan," the voice on the other side paused, then hesitant, it was Wen Yunzhi's voice, "Did it disturb your rest?"

"Huh?" Xia Wan reacted sluggishly for a moment, and her chaotic brain finally woke up: "Auntie?"

As he spoke, he took the phone away and looked at the time on it.

It was only 07:30.

Although it is true that it is time to get up and eat under normal circumstances, but call at this time, unless there is an urgent matter.

"Did something happen?" Xia Wan felt nervous, and asked suspiciously and cautiously, unable to think of the reason why Wen Yunzhi called so early.

"It's nothing else." Wen Yunzhi responded, and cast her gaze on the other people at the dining table, "I just want to ask you, Huo Yu has an appointment with us tonight, do you want to come together?"

Xia Wan was quiet for a moment, then rubbed her eyes and sat up.

Why did Huo Yu ask Xue's family to meet?

Could it be for the new energy project?

But hasn't the Xue family already rejected this project?Does Huo Yu have any other bargaining chips in his hands that can make the other party pick up his interest again?

Xia Wan went through it carefully in her mind, but it was still difficult to be sure, and Huo Yu never mentioned to him about asking Xue's family to meet.

But these, he naturally won't let Wen Yunzhi know.

"I'm not sure yet, Auntie." Xia Wan said and got out of bed, went to the window and opened the curtains.

The sunlight casts obliquely on the landscape lake in the community, and a golden shallow wave swayed in the breeze, which makes people feel refreshed and comfortable easily.

"You can come together too." Wen Yunzhi said with a smile, "it just so happened that grandpa came here too. He got a lot of nutritious food, and he couldn't finish it. I'm afraid he might forget. The trunk is in the trunk, look back and see which ones are suitable for your dad to eat now."

"Thank you auntie, thank you grandpa." Xia Wan immediately thanked her gratefully.

The Xue family was so kind to him, it made him feel a little burdened, and he couldn't bear to refuse Wen Yunzhi's invitation.

He hesitated for a moment, and the word "you" that Huo Yu spit out after drunk suddenly flashed in his mind.

The fingers holding the phone felt tight, and Xia Wan couldn't help feeling a little "arrogant", but the last rationality gave him some leeway when he spoke, "If I have nothing else to do in the afternoon, I will Go there with Huo Yu, after all, I haven't seen grandpa for a while, but I don't need to bring nutrition, my dad is not suitable for eating now."

"Hey, good." Wen Yunzhi said, and asked cautiously after a while, "Wanwan, are you...how are you today?"

I don't know what's going on, Wen Yunzhi's phone calls always make Xia Wan a little confused.

He went through what he said in a daze, and after making sure that there was nothing misleading, he replied with a smile: "I'm fine, auntie."

Then he asked, "Why do you ask that?"

"Oh, oh," Wen Yunzhi's tone suddenly became unnatural, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I'll just ask."

After hanging up Wen Yunzhi's call, Xia Wan opened WeChat with some doubts, wanting to ask if Su Tang said anything to Wen Yunzhi.

But after opening it, he immediately realized the problem.

Xia Wan bit her lip and looked at the red number at the bottom of the screen "Discovery", couldn't help feeling embarrassed and funny at the same time, it took a while to open it.

There were quite a lot of messages from the people in the dormitory, and Su Tang and Fu Ling launched a small theater with serious stains on their own.

In the end, Fu Ling concluded: [Xiao Tianling: So, at the end of the day, Brother Yu is too powerful. 】

Following Su Tang immediately echoed: [Little Sweet Tangguo: Isn't that right?We stamped it every night, so you should pay attention to rest every night, and don’t rush to get up if you don’t have classes in the morning. 】

Shen Xing didn't say anything, and directly left a string of ellipsis.

Xia Wan raised her forehead, regretting that she had praised Huo Yu too much in the dormitory before, and also had a headache that these people could spread out on that matter no matter what.

At the same time, he was very fortunate that Huo Yu didn't have their WeChat account, so he couldn't read their jokes.

Xia Wan didn't reply, but slowly pulled down the reply little by little.

Among the messages, he saw two unexpected messages.

One was left by Xue Zhen:

[Grandpa Xue: The child is strong, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome, and grandpa can help you with anything. ]

This message should have been replied shortly after he posted the circle, even earlier than the reply from Su Tang, Fu Ling and the others.

Xia Wan stared at this message, feeling guilty for causing the old man to worry.

Another unexpected reply came from Xia Yang. Xia Yang's message was very simple, only three words, "What's wrong?"

Looking at this message, Xia Wan frowned slightly.

Immediately, he returned to the contact list and simply and neatly pulled people into the blacklist.

In fact, since Xia Yang left a message yesterday, he has been waiting for Xia Wan's reply.

He hasn't been doing too well lately.

Last night, after drinking outside and inquiring about the news, he came back and forced himself to click on Xia Wan's dialogue box.

But even so, he couldn't speak to Xia Wan in a low voice or pretend nothing happened.

After all, not long ago, he and his father were kicked out of the hospital by Xia Wan and his father who pointed at their noses and scolded them.

No one can easily let go of such a shameful and self-respecting thing, especially for a small character like Xia Wan who was already attached to them, this kind of humiliation is even more unbearable.

But, who made people fly on the branches and become phoenixes now?

In the situation where the Beijing-China situation had long been a foregone conclusion, Huo Yu was like a dark horse, and rushed out unexpectedly, attracting everyone's attention.

just one step...

If he can stabilize the project in his hands, then from now on, Huo Yu will not only be Huo Yu anymore, but also a rapidly rising force and extremely powerful influence.

And this power and influence will completely break the current pattern sharply and directly.

First of all, the Qiu family was seriously injured this time, and Mr. Qiu is getting older, so he is likely to be kicked out of the game this time.

Secondly, it is difficult for Huo Peixue to hold on to the Huo family's country.

Among other things, at the Huo family banquet last time, through Xia Wan's mouth, the fact that the Huo family itself was left by Huo Yu's father, Huo Peifeng, has long been known to everyone.

If Huo Yu is a dude and incompetent, Huo Peixue, Huo Lin and his son can still find a reason to manage it on their behalf.

However, Huo Yu's performance is so amazing now, the way others look at them is more or less subtle.

Even the Qiu family and the Huo family may change, let alone their small Xia family?

It wasn't until now that Xia Chenglin and Xia Yang finally realized that they were still on the wrong team after all.

Not only that, but they are now in a very difficult situation.

They participated in Huo Lin's project.

At that time, when they got the investment opportunity, they thought it would be a great opportunity, and in order to let the Huo family look up to them, they used the strength of the whole family and the company to take out all the available funds to the maximum extent.

But right after, the Huo family was found out with various violations.

Huo Lin said that those were only for old projects, but the project in his hand was also silent for a long time.

Originally, the Xia family had a very good plan. As long as the project started, their Xia family's name would be put on it, even if they were only squeezed into a small corner, with the Huo family's influence, their follow-up working capital would be easy. Get a loan from the bank.

But now, the project is not started, and the Huo family is in a desperate situation. Where can they borrow so much money?

And now, it has even affected the normal operation of the company.

Previously, Xia Yang had no choice but to urge Huo Lin very tactfully, but Huo Lin turned his face away with contempt.

Now it's hard to say who the Huo family will fall into. He didn't dare to offend Huo Lin, but he had to repair Huo Yu's relationship.

Therefore, even if he could no longer lose face, he had to rebuild his relationship with Xia Wan.

Xia Yang placed his fingers on the screen hesitantly, thinking about how to strike up a conversation so that he would not lose his position, and at the same time unconsciously entered Xia Wan's circle of friends.

Maybe it was God's help. Just ten minutes ago, Xia Wan just posted a circle of friends.

There is no beginning and no end, a simple "pawn".

It can be understood as a joke or self-deprecating, or it can be understood as the other party has suffered a huge setback at the moment.

Xia Yang immediately seized the opportunity and clicked to reply: What's wrong?

It didn't seem that urgent, but it also expressed concern, Xia Yang thought it was okay.

One night, Xia Yang didn't sleep well, so he got up late in the morning.

Sitting at the dining table, he refreshed his circle of friends again, but this time, he found that the content of Xia Wan was missing.

He felt that something was wrong, so he quit, opened the chat window of the other party again, and entered the message:

[Scorching Sun: What happened yesterday?Seeing that your circle of friends and family have been worried all night, are you okay? 】

After he finished writing, he looked at it carefully, and after confirming that there was no problem, he clicked send.

However, in the next second, a red exclamation mark appeared in front of his eyes.

Xia Yang was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and clenched his fingers.

He was blocked by Xia Wan.

He was blocked by Xia Wan!

If it was anyone else, he would probably be more receptive, but the other party was Xia Wan.

In the past, he was the only one who flirted with Xia Wan. How could it be Xia Wan's turn to look down on him?

This inversion of identity made him, after a moment of silence, viciously sweep all the dishes on the dining table to the ground.

Unlike the Xia family's low pressure, the Xue family's atmosphere is much more relaxed.

Because of the word "pawn", all Xue's family members gathered at the dining table.

It's just that Xue Zhen had already made the first comment, and even though the others were a little worried after seeing the circle of friends, they didn't continue to post their presence.

Especially after Su Tang's information came out, things suddenly developed in a strange direction.

Xue Chong and Wen Yunzhi were a little embarrassed to see those explicit words, but after thinking about it carefully, it is actually not impossible.

After all, although Xia Wan is still young, she is already married.

The couple looked at each other subtly, not only no longer worried, but even more relieved about Xia Wan's life.

They can all feel relieved, Xue Wenxuan, as a young man, needless to say.

The one who was really worried was actually Xue Zhen.

Eighteen years ago, the old man moved to live in the annex building alone, and the number of times he had breakfast in the main building these years is almost a handful.

But early this morning, the old man came over, and Zhou Qi was holding a painting in his arms behind him.

Naturally, he also saw Su Tang teasing Xia Wan, but it was probably because of the confusion caused by concern. When he thought that Xia Wan could paint a work like "Jackdaw", the old man who has been so wise for a lifetime couldn't help but imagine Xia Wan. It's too late to think about it.

Until Wen Yunzhi smiled and hung up the phone, and said: "He said he is fine."

The old man was somewhat relieved.

Xue Wenxuan picked up the coffee and took a sip, then smiled and said to his grandfather, "I just said I'm fine?"

Compared with Xue Wenxuan, Xue Chong is much smarter.

He ate his breakfast slowly, only smiling.

Sure enough, the old man snorted very unconvinced.

"Look at his painting." The old man pointed to the "Jackdaw" on the side cabinet. "Although it is an artistic creation, it has to be done in his heart. Where is this kind of desperate tone?" Can a person of his age draw it?"

"Withered vines, old trees, dark crows..." Xue Wenxuan was a business student, and thought for a moment after hearing this, "Is it based on poetry?"

"Do you see a family with a small bridge and flowing water in that painting?" Xue Zhen dissatisfied, "That is not a faint crow, but a dying and desperate old crow in the dead silence of the thousands of miles of wasteland, looking at the world for the last time."

Xue Wenxuan was bullied, but smiled and leaned over to the old man to act like a baby: "Sure enough, grandpa doesn't like me anymore when he has A Ke."

"Nonsense." Xue Zhen said, "How old are you, and you're still jealous of A Ke."

"I'm not jealous of him." Xue Wenxuan said with a smile, "It's too late for me to love him."

Xue Zhen snorted at him, and couldn't help laughing again.

After replying to the message, Xia Wan washed up and went downstairs.

Huo Yu had already gotten up and was sitting in the living room talking on the phone. When he saw him come down, he glanced sideways.

That gaze was not much different from usual, but Xia Wan couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat.

While washing, he thought for a long time in the mirror, wondering if he should continue Huo Yu's drunken talk last night.

But at this moment, with Huo Yu right in front of him, he had to admit that once he missed some things, he had to wait patiently for the next more suitable opportunity.

"Okay." Huo Yu's call seemed to be at the end, he said, "Let's play together next time."

When Xia Wan walked up to him, he just hung up the phone and looked up at him.

"Hangover soup...," Xia Wan asked calmly, "Have you drank it?"

"Yeah." Huo Yu nodded, "I woke up in the middle of the night and drank it when I saw it."

"Really?" Almost immediately, Xia Wan's heart jumped for joy, as light as clouds, and he bent his eyes.

"So happy?" Huo Yu laughed, raised his hand and touched the tip of Xia Wan's nose.

Xia Wan froze for a moment, then became honest for a moment, maintaining a slightly leaning posture and not daring to move.

"Dead?" Huo Yu raised the corners of his lips maliciously, "Why did you die? Did you die because the hangover soup was too hard to drink, and you were ashamed?" He asked again, "Why are you still breathing so fast after you die?"

"Huo Yu!" Xia Wan stood up straight and couldn't help gritting her teeth.

"Hey, Xia Wan," Huo Yu laughed unkindly, then patted his side, motioning for him to sit over: "Come here and tell me about your mental journey."

The author has something to say:

Ah, I was caught by a cold, I really couldn't write too much, I had a headache and a stuffy nose, and now it's a series of one paper a day.

I thought I could write until I finished meeting the Xue family, but...

Sorry sorry.
