She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

Chapter 61 I think you just want to splash me with water on purpose
"How about I invite you to dinner next time? You have invited me many times before, and I thank you today."

Hearing this, Huo Xibai raised his eyebrows in surprise, "You said next time won't be on August, right?"

"...I will pay you your salary this month."

"Okay, it's a deal."

"..."

Huo Xibai agreed quickly and turned around and left as if he was afraid that she would regret it.

Seeing this, Meng Xia, who suddenly reacted, felt a little regretful. Why did she talk to Huo Xibai about courtesy?She wasn't going to get along with him anyway?
But Huo Xibai seems to have changed recently. He seems to have become...reasonable and not as difficult to get along with before?
Staring at the warm ginger soup in his hand, and thinking of his many considerate actions today, Meng Xia pursed her lips, and a complex look flashed across her eyes——

Should I say strange?She always felt that there were so many coincidences today. If it hadn't been for the rain, she would have even suspected that Huo Xibai had specially arranged it.

-

In the other room, Lu Zeye was calling Huo Xibai to ask for credit——

"How is it? My trick didn't work? In order to give you a chance to be a hero and save the beauty, I even sacrificed my car."

"If you have such a temporary plan in the future, can you tell me in advance?"

It would be better for him to be prepared so that he wouldn't get splashed all over.

"What we want is this unexpected effect. Otherwise, if Meng Xia sees it, the gain will outweigh the loss."

"Heh, I think you just want to splash me with water on purpose."

Huo Xibai sneered, how could he not see his little thoughts.

Lu Zeye quickly smiled and said, "How could it be? I'm all here to help you. Isn't Meng Xia grateful to you? Isn't there no progress between you two?"

"..." Huo Xibai stopped talking. Is there any progress... There is still some progress.

"She plans to treat me to dinner."

"Okay, then I have fulfilled my mission."

Lu Zeye's careless voice came from the phone, "But I advise you not to agree so quickly. You have to drag her with you."

"Huh? How do you say it?"

"I guess she said she would treat you to dinner so quickly because she doesn't like to owe others favors. So if you don't want to be completely clear with her, then let her owe you."

"But for someone with such a strong self-esteem, you can't always give unilaterally to make her feel that she is taking advantage of you."

Huo Xibai narrowed his eyes and moved his thin lips, "In other words, you want to make her feel respected, but also make her feel indebted?"

"Ruzi can be taught!"

Lu Zeye nodded happily, "Anyway, now you just want her to slowly let down her guard against you. Remember not to act too hastily."

too hasty...

Huo Xibai lowered his eyes and stared at the raindrops on his window. He had been waiting for five years, how could he not be anxious?
No one knows how he survived these five years, not even Meng Xia cares. Maybe she hopes he will never come back...

Only he knows the taste of those sleepless nights in a foreign country, the intertwined feelings of regret, longing, and emotions that he himself cannot distinguish.

However, he has survived five years. It's not that he can't wait any longer. He just hopes that the final result... Meng Xia will not disappoint him...

After hanging up the phone, Huo Xibai stood by the window overlooking the night scene downstairs. The interlaced lights reflected in his eyes were flickering, making it difficult to see the emotions in his eyes.
