Huo Chuxiao was still a little unresponsive at first, and asked, "Who?"

Ji Zongming thought that he was deliberately avoiding him, and immediately felt bad.It's not like being angry, it's more like being wronged.

As soon as he got angry, he turned around and was about to leave. Fortunately, Huo Chuxiao finally understood what he was talking about, and said, "Ah, he sent me back, so he came up and sat for a while."

However, when he got the answer, Ji Zongming didn't feel very satisfied. Instead, he cursed in his heart, that kid Chu Boya really has bad intentions, and he has already entered the room, and he moved very fast.

Huo Chuxiao was displeased when he saw him, thinking that he didn't say hello in advance, and bringing others home made him feel that his private territory had been violated, and he also felt puzzled, sister-in-law, Du Yuan Luoran, these people also visited suddenly before, But I have never seen Ji Zongming so angry.Maybe being a boss is more prone to moodiness.

After thinking about it, he decided to ask: "Are you unhappy?"

Ji Zongming was taken aback when he heard the words, the aggrieved feelings that had been pent up in his heart disappeared, and he replied in embarrassment: "No, no."

However, seeing Huo Chuxiao relieved after hearing the words and continuing to paint, his mood was still hard to hide.

The matter of the Huo family would inevitably involve his marriage with Huo Chuxiao. It was only at that time that he discovered that there were fans of the two of them online. It was Alisa who said this. Surfing the Internet, it will be a matter of time before you discover cp super talk.But the girl didn't report it to him after she found out, and she didn't know what to do by herself.

After he finally followed the netizen's message, there were basically not many fans left. The mainstream theory at the time was that Huo Chuxiao was sold to Ji's family in exchange for resources for the Huo family, and he and Ji Zongming were no more. They are superficial couples. The so-called pick-up and commute is just to maintain superficial harmony.This kind of argument drove away many fans, and some even regarded him as a united front with the Huo family, believing that he was close to Huo Chuxiao for other purposes, and even started conspiracy theories about it.

Ji Zongming was dumbfounded at first, but gradually he couldn't laugh anymore.

He suddenly realized that he had been ignoring a very important question.

That is, the entire social circle he was in, even if he didn't participate in it personally, had more or less heard of his business marriage with Huo Chuxiao.

No one treats them as a serious couple.

He usually doesn't feel this matter, because with his character, no one dares to speak nonsense in front of him.However, when things escalated to the Internet, netizens didn't care whether he would come over to live offline fighting through the Internet cable, and they naturally expressed their opinions very directly.

The more Ji Zongming read those comments, the worse his expression became.

Before, he naively thought that as long as Huo Chuxiao slowly adapts to his existence, the two of them can start as friends through the so-called "roommate" relationship, and they can make a fake show, and finally throw away the so-called "one-year termination of engagement" " agreement.

What's more, he can do this, a big premise is that Huo Chuxiao knows nothing about relationships. Although many things he puts his heart into will be ignored, at least Huo Chuxiao is in a state of not being enlightened, and he treats other potential competitors They are also treated equally.Anyway, he wasn't alone.

He even felt that with such a marriage contract, he had a greater advantage than others.

However, now it seems that this marriage contract in the eyes of others proves that he has ulterior motives for getting close to Huo Chuxiao.

Even after Huo's defeat, some people began to speculate whether Huo Chuxiao would be abandoned by him.

It was all nonsense at first, it doesn't matter what other people say, not to mention that he and Huo Chuxiao have known each other for a long time, and he knows that the other party will not think so.

But the problem right now is not that Huo Chuxiao misunderstood that he had other plans.But Huo Chuxiao had no idea about him at all.

What's worse, he is no longer sure that he can catch Huo Chuxiao.

He absent-mindedly went to work in the company as usual, and met a few young girls gathered together, muttering something.He didn't care at all at first, but in the end he caught the key word - Huo Chuxiao.

Boss Ji ignored it intentionally, but couldn't restrain his instinctive curiosity, so he slowed down.

"...I see, I see, my good guy, it's worth the money. I didn't pursue Chu Boya at first, but when I opened the software and swiped to his album cover, I was immediately poked."

"Although I don't know much about oil painting, Huo Chuxiao's style should be quite obvious. I recognized it at a glance. Does their industry also respect strong personal style? I have only seen his award-winning work before. Just got it, no wonder it needs to be raised, it is said that it cost seven figures to ask for it?"

"By the way, are some of you talking about his and Chu Boya's cp? I've seen someone build a super chat, and there are still a lot of materials."

"Relying on you to say this in the company, don't you think you're making a lot of money? I don't know that our CEO and Painter Huo are husband and wife."

"But isn't there a rumor on the Internet that they don't have feelings for each other? I see some gossip that they are getting divorced soon."

The more Ji Zongming listened, the more angry he felt, and he couldn't help but wanted to continue listening, but he didn't hear anyone talking for a long time.He was wondering, when suddenly he heard a trembling voice say, "Old...boss, what are you... doing?"

Ji Zongming was startled, why did the voice sound so close to him, as if... right behind him?

Turning around, he realized that he had moved slowly from the corner just now to the workstations of those employees.

Several pairs of eyes looked at him in horror, and one of them boldly said: "...boss, I really need this job."

Embarrassment happened, but Ji Zongming still couldn't focus on his work, instead he cared more about what he was thinking about before.

He felt that the conditions in all aspects were good, not to mention Qin Huai, even compared to Chu Boya, he was capable of fighting.It's a pity that my mentality collapsed early.Now when he recalled the time when he was confident that Huo Chuxiao had seduced him in every possible way, he felt as if it had been a lifetime.

If only I had a little more self-confidence back then...

However, some unlucky things always happen one after another.He managed to get out of the shadows in the afternoon, but suddenly saw the hot search on the Internet again, Chu Boya and Huo Chuxiao's names were next to each other, followed by "hot".

Clicking on it is basically a marketing account praising the perfect combination of the two people's cooperation. Chu Boya chose Huo Chuxiao to paint a portrait of herself. verve.

The comments below are a group of blatant kswl fans.

What made him most angry was that in the picture posted by the fans, there was actually a picture of him setting off fireworks for Huo Chuxiao in Hokkaido, but the protagonists were replaced by Chu Boya and Huo Chuxiao. face of surprise.

What the hell is this called? ?

He couldn't help but took a look at Huo Chuxiao's Weibo, and found that there were still fewer pictures and more pictures if he could not be shaken. He was relieved, but he clicked on the comment and saw a hot praise at a glance: "Seeing that Mr. Huo is not affected by that at all." The impact of the incident is really reassuring, I hope the teacher can get rid of those disgusting people in the original family as soon as possible, the divorce is beautiful~"

"Boom!"

The assistant outside the door suddenly heard a muffled sound coming from the president's office, knocked on the door and said, "Boss, are you okay?"

"It's nothing!" Ji Zongming gritted his teeth and said.

The more Ji Zongming thought about it, the more angry he became. He didn't go home directly after get off work, but met Zheng Fucheng for a few drinks.

He has been busy with work recently, and he hasn't gone out to drink for half a year. Zheng Fucheng is still the same, and he is full of sensuality all day long. The whole bar street regards him as the God of Wealth, so I got the news. He quickly took out the host as a pie, and picked a low-key and clean members-only bar, just like visiting his own backyard.

Ji Zongming didn't like those men and women who pretended to be laughing, his face was so gloomy, and Zheng Fucheng didn't dare touch him, so he obediently didn't order any young masters and princesses, and kept pouring wine for Ji Zongming, pouring a glass and introducing a glass The price is no different from what his mother sells wine.

After three glasses of wine, Ji Zongming was in the mood to speak.

He sighed, sounding extremely helpless, and Zheng Fucheng was taken aback, because after being brothers for so many years, it was the first time he saw Ji Zongming look like he had lost a battle.

He asked cautiously: "Is there something wrong with the company?"

Ji Zongming ignored him.

Zheng Fucheng thought about it, no, the game's current reviews are rave reviews.

So he asked again: "Master Ji bothers you again?"

Ji Zongming: "Get lost."

Young Master Zheng was so thoughtful that he was scratching his head and scratching his head, he slapped his thigh, and suddenly realized: "It must be related to Huo Chuxiao!"

Ji Zongming just glanced at him, but still didn't reply.

Zheng Fucheng knew that he had guessed right, so he leaned over and asked mysteriously, "Why, it's not going well?"

Looking at Ji Zongming's expression again, he knew what he said was right, and felt a little complacent for a while.

"If you want me to say, you've been single for too long, and you've lost the ability to chase people." He said while drinking wine, "You've lived with someone like you, and you haven't made any progress in half a year." No, there are only three possible problems. One, you are ugly. Two, your gender is wrong. Three, you are moved by yourself all day long, regardless of whether the other party gets it or not."

Ji Zongming finally looked at him squarely and said, "I'm not moved by myself, I'm blinded by myself."

Zheng Fucheng waved his hand, "One meaning, draw inferences from one example. For a person like Mr. Huo who is naturally indifferent to feelings, it's useless for you to play the subtle way. You have to come straight with him. It's so direct that he feels embarrassed and at a loss what to do. , you can know what he really thinks of you in his heart. If he hates it, he must show it very strongly and tell you that he doesn't like it. If he likes it..."

Zheng Fucheng stopped talking here, and saw Ji Zongming looking over very seriously.

He said in his heart that Lao Ji still has his day today, looking at the students like his mother, and couldn't help but sigh, if it wasn't for Huo Chuxiao's fame and fortune, why would he make wedding clothes for others, he would have done it himself.

Ji Zongming frowned when he saw that he was playing tricks endlessly, and said displeasedly, "Say it."

"Ahem... If you like it, you must be very shy. You may blush, stammer, or simply run away. In short, it is impossible to say thank you lightly. Haven't you been with him for so long, sure If you know what he likes, just come straight to him, and I think the Huo family's virtue towards him is probably lack of love since childhood, this kind of people usually don't take the initiative to ask for it, you have to take the initiative to give it. "

As he spoke, he slapped Ji Zongming on the back twice, "Xiao Ji, I like you."

It's a pity that Ji Zongming gave him a nonchalant and prestige stare, so he withdrew his hand cowardly.

Ji Zongming had already put down his glass and started smoking.He slowly exhaled a smoke ring, pondered for a moment, and didn't know if he listened.

He drank until ten o'clock in the evening, which was the time when the nightlife started, but Ji Zongming decided to go back home.

Zheng Fucheng came with him, but did not leave together.When the two came out of this store, Zheng Fucheng immediately went into another one. Obviously the dance hall was underground, but the vibration from the loud speaker could also be heard on the side of the road.

"There is no curfew for single nobles. You go home to accompany your future wife. I will continue to drink my wine. Goodbye to you." Young Master Zheng shook hands with him, and rushed into the bar.

Ji Zongming looked at him in disgust before leaving.

It was nearly eleven o'clock when he returned home, and he reckoned that Huo Chuxiao had already fallen asleep, so he was extra careful when opening the door.

As a result, before he changed his shoes at the entrance, he heard a quiet "ah" from someone in the room, as if he was frightened by himself.

As soon as he looked up, he saw Huo Chuxiao wearing pajamas, holding a water glass in his hand, who looked like he came to the living room to fetch water.

The two were taken aback when they saw each other.

Ji Zongming was stunned because he didn't expect that the other party was still asleep.

Huo Chuxiao was stunned, but it was because he thought that Ji Zongming was working overtime at the company again today and would not be able to come back.

As a result, although the man in front of him was still wearing the suit he wore at work, his coat had already been taken off, and the two buttons of his shirt near the neck were also unbuttoned, slightly open, obviously not the look he had just returned from working overtime.

More importantly, Ji Zongming smelled of alcohol.Although Huo Chuxiao smokes, he doesn't drink often, so he is more sensitive to the smell of alcohol. In addition, Ji Zongming just opened the door. The window should be open in the corridor, and there is wind blowing in. In the cold air, the smell of alcohol It became very abrupt.

It's true that Ji Zongming smokes at work, but in Huo Chuxiao's impression, he never drank alcohol during working hours.Moreover, their industry is generally young, and there is very little wine table culture, not to mention that AZ is rich in resources in all aspects, and it is impossible for the CEO to go out to run business, so the smell of alcohol is very strange.

Huo Chuxiao took a closer look at his appearance, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt... Ji Zongming went out to eat with someone in private.Instead of having a simple meal with him, he also drank and didn't come back until late at night.

If you can go out to drink with Ji Zongming, the relationship will not be too bad.

During the two seconds that Huo Chuxiao froze for thought, his heart suddenly moved.Ji Zongming couldn't be... going out with someone he likes, right?

When he thought about it this way, he felt more and more logical and self-consistent.

After all, the two of them will be divorced soon, and during this period, they have not done anything beyond the boundaries of their friendship, and Ji Zongming's conditions are very good, the president of the dignified company, not to mention being surrounded by warblers, at least he can be said to have no shortage of peach blossoms Bar.He didn't need to be as safe as a jade in a fake marriage.

People like myself who have no need for material desires can easily ignore their personal life, but Ji Zongming is different. When he goes on a business trip to Hokkaido, he still enjoys setting off fireworks.

Huo Chuxiao thought in his heart that it would be embarrassing for him to meet him now.

So he poured a glass of water in a hurry, and hurried back to the bedroom without even saying hello.

Ji Zongming was quite open-minded at first, and was about to say hi to Huo Chuxiao, but saw that the other party seemed to have broken some secret, and went back to the bedroom in a panic, as if he was trying his best to pretend that he didn't exist. Ji Zongming Zong Ming was stunned for a moment.

Huo Chuxiao is a person with very poor acting skills, and it took Ji Zongming almost no time to understand his expression.

Looking at the changing mirror at the door again, Ji Zongming found that his virtuous behavior looked a bit like he had just returned home after going out for fun, so he couldn't help himself immediately, and couldn't care about anything else, so he went straight to Huo Chuxiao There was a knock on the bedroom door.

"I'm asleep." Huo Chuxiao said sullenly.

Ji Zongming: "...you just walked in front of my eyes five seconds ago."

Huo Chuxiao: "..." Damn, he will never learn to lie.

But after all, it was already late at night, and it was not an unreasonable request to not want to put someone in the bedroom, so Huo Chuxiao confidently refused to open the door.He didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him at all, he just asked Ji Zongming to give up the idea of ​​chatting with him quickly.

Unexpectedly, not only did the other party not back down, but instead he said to him through the door: "Chu Xiao, did you misunderstand something, I just went out to drink with Zheng Fucheng for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Zongming suddenly realized that it was even more strange to say this, and quickly added: "It's just chatting between brothers, nothing else!"

When Huo Chuxiao heard that he was in such a hurry to explain, he thought that he had guessed correctly, he just went out to solve personal problems, and he has recently become good at reading air.

But there was a faint strange emotion in my heart.I can't say what it is, but when he thinks that Ji Zongming may have someone he likes, besides the comfort of being a friend, he also feels a little unclear.Huo Chuxiao attributed this to the fact that the plot was beyond what he knew at the beginning.

At the beginning, he knew that Ji Zongming and Huo Chuhong were out of business, and he felt weird in his heart. They were all weird anyway, so it should be about the same.

In fact, how normal is it? Even if there is no Huo Chuhong, someone else will make up for it.

He should have expected it.

"Oh!" Huo Chuxiao didn't know how to answer, so he could only speak forcefully.

Ji Zongming didn't know whether he accepted his reaction, or gave up his defense, waited at the door for a while, and then left.

Huo Chuxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

But he didn't rush to sleep.

What my sister-in-law said to him before kept popping up in my mind. Now that the cornerstone of this marriage has been cracked, does that mean...he can consider moving ahead with the divorce?After all, as friends, you can still continue after divorce.But with the shackles of marriage, it will delay Boss Ji's development of relationship.

Huo Chuxiao thought of this, and glanced at the room.

How many days can he continue to sleep here?

The release date of Chu Boya's album was soon announced. Huo Chuxiao, as one of the publicity points, has also been mentioned repeatedly. It seems to be on the hot search. Recently, he has clearly felt that the comment area is much more lively than before.

Most of the comments were rainbow farts as usual, and occasionally a few fans from Chu Boya's side came to thank them, and it was peaceful.But Huo Chuxiao didn't care much about these things. What he cared most about was the final payment.

The work at the studio was very quick, probably because this kind of big star was not short of money, so the transfer was fast, and Shen Li even specially called to invite him to the celebration banquet. It seems that the planning of this album release was very successful.

Huo Chuxiao looked at the transfer records, but found that there was an extra sum of money than agreed in the contract, and the amount was not small, almost catching up with half of the amount of the transaction.Huo Chuxiao thought that the person on the other side was too excited, slipped and entered the wrong number, so he hurriedly told Shen Li.

In the end, Shen Li laughed and said, "That's right, Mr. Huo, this is a bonus from the studio. We are afraid that we will treat you badly."

Huo Chuxiao said in his heart that he really knew how to be a man, but then he thought again, hiss, could it be that he lowered the price? ?

But the joy of earning a small amount of money lasted for a long time. He recently calculated his family fortune and found that he could almost buy a house with full payment.There was still a certain distance, but thanks to this bonus, he reckoned that with another order, he would be able to move out and live alone.

Just full of joy, Ji Zongming came back from the outside, saw him sitting on the sofa with a smile on his face, and couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, so happy?"

"It's nothing." Although Huo Chuxiao said so, the smile on the corner of his mouth still couldn't stop.

Ji Zongming looked a little funny at his appearance, and said, "Have you made money?"

Huo Chuxiao was startled, he wondered if he was so good-looking?

Ji Zongming smiled slightly and said nothing.Seeing Huo Chuxiao's reaction, he felt a little joy in his heart, and felt that no matter how the relationship progressed, at least he had a better understanding of Huo Chuxiao in the past six months or so.

Just go one step further...

Huo Chuxiao saw that he was actually walking towards the study, and asked reflexively, "You, do you want to draw?"

Ji Zongming: "??? Isn't the study a place to read books!"

Huo Chuxiao: "...Oh, that's right."

Occupying that room at home every day turned the study into a studio.

Think about how the online fans used the study as a testament to the bad relationship between the two of them, and decided that Ji Zongming would never go home, so that Huo Chuxiao could let Huo Chuxiao make that room into such a virtue.

Huo Chuxiao still wanted to laugh when he saw it. He recalled that when he and Ji Zongming were not very familiar, he dared to throw people out of the house and demolished his bedroom to use as a storage room.He has recently felt that he has improved socially, probably because he has more friends around him, whether it is the former colleagues he met in Jingjie, or the young people in Chu Boya's studio he met not long ago, he seems to have finally realized The joy of normal social interaction, and after completely getting rid of the haze of the Huo family, he no longer rejects contact with others as he used to.

So now that I think about it, I was quite aggressive towards Ji Zongming back then.

But Boss Ji was angry when he was angry, but he never really got angry at him.

Looking at this apartment now, his things are everywhere, but Ji Zongming's living area is so small that only the bedroom remains.

To be honest, there is still a little bit of emptiness in my heart.After all, he has always regarded himself as a person who lives here by borrowing.At that time, I was just greedy for the location and the convenience of going to work.Now that he has also resigned and regained his freedom, there is no longer any reason to stay here.

He looked at the door of the study room, and thought that Ji Zongming would never go to that room, and now that he did this, did he also faintly feel that he should leave?

Ji Zongming was standing in front of the bookcase in the study room, with several thick books in his arms, most of which were about art history, appreciation of famous paintings and so on.

What Zheng Fucheng said that day, he went back and thought about it for a long time, not thinking about what the kid called a straight ball, but thinking about the phrase "what does Huo Chuxiao like".

In fact, after going through so much, he didn't expect himself to be attractive in Huo Chuxiao's eyes. It would be nice if he could be a good person.But Huo Chuxiao can't fall in love just because he is a good person, he has to match what he likes.

Like Qin Huai, they all studied painting, so even if Huo Chuxiao didn't have any special bond with him, they could still get along very well, and even went to art exhibitions together, which was considered companionship.And if it was him, I'm afraid he could only be the driver who took Huo Chuxiao to the entrance of the art exhibition.

He is not a person who can lower his face. He does something to please others. He has never done this kind of thing since he was a child.Even because of his special status, he is very good at angering others.And after he really fell in love with Huo Chuxiao, it's not that he didn't think about getting closer by learning and looking at paintings.But in the final analysis, he didn't want to make all this too purposeful, as if those things were just tools to get close to Huo Chuxiao, and he wasn't really immersed in them.

But recently, especially after paying more and more attention to Huo Chuxiao's work online, his thoughts have gradually changed.

Speaking of this, I may also thank Chu Boya. This kid recently released a new album. Because of the many design elements and Chu Boya's consistent deciphering style, fans have been keen to analyze the entire album these days, as big as A whole song, as small as the corner pattern of a certain inner page, of course there is no lack of analysis of the album cover designed by Huo Chuxiao.

The analysis of small papers often has thousands of words, and the classics are cited in an eloquent manner.

Ji Zongming was also awakened halfway at that time. He thought, yes, Huo Chuxiao can paint a painting for a month or even longer. He doesn't care so much about everything in life. A lot of hard work and ideas will be put into it.

Even because of his inarticulate character, it is very likely that he will express words that are usually impossible to say in the form of paintings.

But Ji Zongming couldn't understand any of his paintings.

This suddenly made him feel depressed.

But along with it, there is still a little motivation to try to understand Huo Chuxiao and the world in his eyes.

It was also for this purpose that he decided to start learning how to appreciate those paintings.

After all, I just want to get closer to Huo Chuxiao.

He took out seven or eight books in one breath, they were heavy, and Huo Chuxiao was startled when he walked out of the study.

Huo Chuxiao took a closer look, only to realize that they were some art books brought by him.He opened his mouth to ask what this was for, but when he thought about the decision he had just made, he felt that it was all trivial, and he had to tell Ji Zongming first if he had something to do.

So he waited until Ji Zongming carried those books back to his bedroom, and then turned back, before he called people to stop.

As soon as Ji Zongming heard what he had to say to himself, he immediately became serious, vaguely happy, and said in his heart that he had never seen Huo Chuxiao so serious, could it be that he wanted to discuss some important matter with him?

It was indeed a big deal, so big that after Huo Chuxiao finished speaking, he was completely dumbfounded.

Because Huo Chuxiao said:

"Let's get a divorce early."
