On the last Friday of August, the first oil painting class led by Huo Chuxiao ended.

There were less than ten students in the class, except for Luo Ran, all of them came from middle-class families. Probably for a sense of ritual, the parents of a few students came to the studio to pick up their children from get out of class.

Dealing with adults sometimes consumes much more energy than children, Huo Chuxiao intentionally wants to avoid it, but is directly blocked in the corridor by a certain mother with a bold personality.

"Mr. Huo, I know that you are a graduate of the oil painting department of University A. Our family Yuanyuan's target school is also the Academy of Fine Arts of University A. It is less than a year away. Would you like to work for Yuanyuan for a while?" Tutor? The price will never treat you badly! The time and place of the class is up to you, and all expenses can be paid by me and the child's father..."

While talking, the woman with bright makeup pushed her daughter forward until she was between her and Huo Chuxiao.

The little girl was shy and embarrassed, and complained and called her mother several times.

In class, she usually sits closest to Teacher Huo, and she is also the most nervous. She is so close to the teacher unexpectedly, and she can even smell the faint smell of lavender clothing conditioner mixed with turpentine on the man's body, which immediately burned her ears red.

Huo Chuxiao calmly called her name: "Du Yuan?"

This girl is considered his most promising student in the class, she is not as irritable as the boys, and it is very comfortable to sit quietly beside him, so Huo Chuxiao likes it very much.

He likes people who are somewhat similar to himself.

It's just that Mr. Huo's "optimism" and "likeness" are basically seen by no one except himself.

Du Yuan twisted her fingers and hummed honestly.

She had gossiped with Teacher Huo a lot with her girlfriends in private, and even secretly drew a sketch of Huo Chuxiao in her notebook.She knew that Luo Ran always sent sketches to Mr. Huo, she was too thin-skinned to dare to do so, but she was always envious.

If my mother can really persuade Teacher Huo to be her one-on-one tutor... then she will probably be able to spend the entire third year of high school excitedly.

But looking at Mr. Huo's expression, it's probably useless.

"Sorry, I don't have a tutor right now..." Huo Chuxiao said, she really wanted to refuse.

The phone rang at this moment, interrupting him.

Caller ID: Du Shaoning.

Huo Chuxiao's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly remembered that Du Yuan and Du Shaoning are cousins.Then what this kid wants to say when he calls now is basically obvious.

Sure enough, as soon as Huo Chuxiao pressed the answer button, he cut to the chase and said:

"Huo Chuxiao, good boy, buddy, I'm not helping you anymore, are you?"

Huo Chuxiao rubbed between his brows with a headache.Du Shaoning and him were classmates in high school, and they were usually playful and rebellious, but they were the only friend Huo Chuxiao had who was reasonable in his entire school days.He was able to come to Jingjie, and Du Shaoning was there to help.

It's kind of bad to owe a favor.

Teacher Huo didn't have enough confidence to speak.

"I've never been a tutor." He made a rare excuse.

"Didn't you do a good job in Jingjie? I heard that many children fell under your pomegranate pants. My aunt said that when Du Yuan came home from class every day, there would be Teacher Huo on the left and Huo on the right." Teacher, the little girl was chasing stars before, but now she doesn’t. She just hugged the drawing paper when she got home and said it was all homework left by Teacher Huo~”

Du Shaoning pinched his neck to imitate his younger sister, feeling weird.

Huo Chuxiao was tired from hearing it: "I don't agree, can you call me every day?"

"Yes!" Du Shaoning replied decisively, "Xiao'er, I am helping you. Do you know how much money my uncle and his family are willing to spend for Du Yuan, the jewel in their palm? How long can tutoring once or twice a week delay you?" Time? This extra money is absolutely easy and lucrative, when did I cheat you? Isn’t Jingjie’s job also..."

He began to grind hard, and even found out the old sesame seeds and rotten millet that he borrowed for Huo Chuxiao to copy homework in high school.

"Besides, do you have any money now? I've heard about your company's shareholding reform. It is said that the old lady has some kind of sexuality and changed her will. The gossip has spread.

As for the group of beasts in your family who eat people and don't spit out their bones, they have thrown you out to fend for themselves. Can you have a piece of the pie in the new will?Share reform can benefit you?You don't know how to make money, and you are stubborn, brother, am I thinking about your money? "

Huo Chuxiao's heart warmed, and he finally let go, "Okay then..."

In this way, Mr. Huo took on private work for the first time.

Du Yuan's mother was indeed as generous as Du Shaoning said.Huo Chuxiao did a simple mental calculation. Based on this salary, plus the 500 million, he would be able to buy a pretty good house in the urban area by the time the engagement was terminated.

Or if he works harder, he may be able to move out of the wedding room within this year, get rid of his bad-tempered "roommate", and completely live a single life.

And Mr. Ji Zongming, a roommate who didn't know anything about it, was sitting in the office, turning his phone with one hand, his face full of confusion.

The game project being produced is progressing smoothly, and several Russian consultants are well integrated in the company, and everything is going well now.The only problem is that Davari got along so well with them, and even brought his wife and children to China to stay for a while and enjoy the scenery of neighboring countries.

This is actually a trivial matter, but the engineer named Maxim brought his painter's wife to the city, remembering the adventure at the art exhibition before, he had to speak Russian very fluently with his wife, and he was half-hearted with his wife. A "pretty guy" get-together with two alumni.

Yes, the blond, blue-eyed, well-built Slav really said so, handsome man.He also described Huo Chuxiao's Russian as "like the singing of birds in the forest".

Ji Zongming almost broke the Parker pen in his hand, while Yu Zhen and Zheng Fucheng were actually holding back their laughter and watching the fun.

Yu Zhen even whispered to him: "Your little Mr. Huo is really attracting bees and attracting butterflies, so don't make people feel at ease."

Ji Zongming gave him a sharp look, and the CFO accepted it as soon as he saw it.

So the problem now is that the matter of inviting Huo Chuxiao naturally fell on him, the legal husband.

Ji Zongming had a headache.To be honest, he doesn't want to see Huo Chuxiao very much recently, because he had a big oolong before, and he has a hurdle in his heart, and he is still not convinced.

No matter what he said, he wanted good looks, good figure, good career, and Huo Chuxiao didn't think about him at all?Both of them have obtained certificates, they are legal couples, they have an opportunity that no one else can ask for, and they are so close to the water, yet he has no feeling for him at all?

Ji Shao complained about his overwhelming charm.

He regards this as oolong syndrome, the sense of imbalance caused by the gap, as long as he distances himself from Huo Chuxiao, it will be fine after a while, and he can calmly treat Huo Chuxiao as an ordinary friend.

However, reality often does not give him the opportunity to distance himself.

Ji Zongming is not a person who likes to be entangled, so he was so heartbroken that he still called Huo Chuxiao.

When Huo Chuxiao saw the caller's name, his first reaction was: This person must have dialed the wrong number.

"Hello, Mr. Ji?" He asked suspiciously.

"It's me." Ji Zongming paused for two seconds before saying, "Are you free this weekend?"

Huo Chuxiao was even more puzzled, asking why?

"Have."

"Okay. Do you remember Maxim?"

Huo Chuxiao barely remembered that it was the Russian he met at the art exhibition.

Ji Zongming briefly explained his identity, and then said: "His wife recently came to China and is in this city, so I want to meet you."

Huo Chuxiao's reaction was flat: "Oh...you mean to have a meal?"

"No," Ji Zongming finally reached the most troublesome part, he supported his forehead and said, "The company will take them on a short-term trip this weekend, in a few nearby scenic spots, about two days and one night, Maxim means , I hope you can join, his wife will be very happy."

There was a brief silence on the phone.

Ji Zongming thought, he knew it.With Huo Chuxiao's personality, he would definitely refuse.At that time, he will be able to tell those Russians who are aggressive and aggressive, that Huo Chuxiao has other arrangements for the weekend, and he is very sorry that he cannot go with him.

perfect.

"Okay."

What! ?Ji Zongming was so confused that he even blinked his eyes.Did he hear correctly?Huo Chuxiao agreed?

"You...you hear me? I mean multi-person travel..."

"Understood clearly. You will be reimbursed for the entire cost, right?"

Ji Zongming said yes in a daze.

"That's good, just let me know when you leave." After finishing speaking, Huo Chuxiao simply hung up the phone.

The boss of Tuliu Ji was in a mess by himself.

Did he call the wrong number...?

But in fact, Huo Chuxiao's idea is very simple, he chatted with Maxim very speculatively, and he really wanted to see his wife.Recently, I have been planning to go out for a sketching trip. If I can get a free trip from Ji Zongming's company, why not do it?

What's more, Du Shaoning's phone call also reminded him that it's time to save for his own pension, and save as much as he can.

Teacher Huo has completely forgotten the embarrassing identities of himself and Ji Zongming, and completely treats Boss Ji as a roommate.

On the other hand, contrary to Ji Zongming's gloomy face, Yu Zhen looked relaxed about watching the excitement, and even hummed a few songs when he returned to the office.

As his assistant, Huo Chuhong, who was in the same office, smiled and asked, "Boss, what's the matter? Are you so happy?"

Yu Zhen waved his hand, and said casually: "It's nothing, it's just our public trip this weekend, and Zong Ming's wife is also back. Oh, by the way, you and Huo Chuxiao are still brothers."

Huo Chuhong was startled, and raised his voice: "My brother? Why is he here too?"

Yu Zhen briefly explained the cause and effect, and finally commented: "Your brother is so likable, Zong Ming's boy can probably eat a lot of vinegar. We must have a lot of fun watching. To be honest, he has been single before, which made me still I'm curious what it's like for someone like him to fall in love."

Huo Chuhong was preoccupied, he closed the office door, lowered his voice and said, "Brother Yu Zhen, there is something that I have to tell you clearly."

Yu Zhen didn't know, so he just took it as gossip.

However, after 5 minutes, he understood.

"So, they..." He vaguely stretched out two fingers to gesture.

Huo Chuhong nodded.

Yu Zhen was not as heavy as him. After thinking for a while, he suddenly laughed.

There was a sly gleam in the eyes behind the gold-rimmed lenses.

"Then it will be even more lively." He rubbed his chin and said.
