Chapter 2023: Chapter 2023 the old house is on fire (5)(the second is asking for a monthly pa.s.s)
The smile on Madam Liu’s face froze, and she did not know how to respond for a long time.
She did not seem to be a well-rounded person.
Guo huining sighed slightly.
She knew that the person who could make Huo Guanchen fall in love with was never an ordinary person.
After a while, she heard madam Liu Stutter,”… there… There are people? Then why did you come… To See Me?”
Huo guanchen smiled and said, “Minister Liu is very kind, but it would be impolite not to.”
It was this look that seemed to know everything about women’s thoughts that struck a few people’s hearts.
Madam Liu closed her eyes and asked, “May I ask, who is the person in your heart?”

Huo Guanchen sighed lightly, as if he felt that this question was very difficult to answer.
Guo Huining also felt that this madam Liu’s shallow words were too deep. Why would the person in her heart tell you?
Sure enough, Huo Guanchen did not answer her directly. Instead, he picked up the menu and said,”… do you want to eat anything else?”
This was almost no different from a tactful refusal.
Ms. Liu’s face seemed to have lost its color. After being embarra.s.sed for a while, she stood up and said, “I’m full. Thank you, General Huo. I’ll be leaving first.”
With that, she hurriedly left the cubicle where the two of them were eating.
Huo Guanchen sat alone for a while. Then, he took out a ring box with the Tiffany logo from his pocket. The box was turquoise in color, but it didn’t look very bright.
He opened the ring box and was lost in thought.
Guo Huining took a closer look.
This ring box was not the new box she had seen before. The diamond ring inside was not the huge pear-shaped diamond ring she had seen before. Instead, it was a smaller, cla.s.sic Tiffany six-clawed diamond ring.
The stone on the surface of the ring was still the same size, but this kind of inlay was even more elegant and exquisite. It was as if it had been baptized by the pa.s.sage of time and had lost the impetuousness of the diamond.
Guo Huining’s heart was beating very fast, and there was still a trace of unreality in the depths of her heart.
Who was the person in Huo Guanchen’s heart? !
Just as she was about to take off her earphones, she saw that someone else had come.
This time, the waiter brought an extremely beautiful and elegant woman to Huo Guanchen’s cubicle.
Even though the video on the IPAD was so low, Guo Huining could still tell that the woman was too beautiful to be real.
She was wearing an ordinary outfit, a light blue round-necked cashmere sweater, beige wool pants, and a spoilt white lab coat.
It was obvious that she had just come out of a hospital or laboratory.
However, as soon as she entered, everyone in the restaurant on the second floor looked at her.
The beautiful woman opposite the handsome man at the door could only be considered child’s play in front of this woman.
Beauties also had to be compared. An ordinary beauty standing in front of a truly beautiful person was even more tragic than an ordinary person.
Guo huining stared at the woman who had just entered for quite a while, until Huo Guanchen asked in a gentle tone that she had never heard before, “Jinning, have you eaten lunch? The soup here is very good.”
Only then did Guo Huining realize that this woman was Huo Guanchen’s ex-wife, song jinning.
Wasn’t she already divorced? !
Why were they still arguing? !
Guo Huining felt a sudden wave of panic in her heart.
It was as if someone had suddenly smashed her dream with a sledgehammer, and song jinning was the one holding the sledgehammer!
When she hadn’t seen song jinning, she could still comfort herself, thinking that a woman around Huo Guanchen’s age was already in her early fifties, how could she be any better looking?
But when she saw song jinning, she realized that there was someone who took such good care of herself!
People would believe that she was in her early thirties!
She looked younger than Guo Huining, who was in her early thirties, not to mention her beauty.
Guo huining used to think that she was “Young and beautiful”in Huo Guanchen’s heart, but now she realized that not only was “Beauty”impossible, even “Young”was only a numerical advantage.
No one would think that song jinning was older than her in terms of appearance.
But why was Huo Guanchen so good to her?
So good that she almost had thoughts that she shouldn’t have!
Guo Huining was embarra.s.sed and annoyed, and she almost left with a flick of her sleeve.
Uncle Dong, who was sitting next to her, did not focus on watching the IPAD video like Guo Huining. Instead, he carefully observed Guo Huining’s expression.
Seeing that her expression was getting uglier and uglier, the anger in her eyes could not be concealed. He nodded slightly.
A woman who was in love would only ruin things. Only by making her understand the cruel truth could she truly be used by them.
To uncle Dong, he did not believe a single word of Dou Aiyan’s words.
From a man’s point of view, he did not think that someone like Huo Guanchen would take a liking to Guo Huining.
Even if the old house was on fire, with Huo Guanchen’s level and his own charm, even the young girls in his circle could be chosen by him. Would he take a fancy to Guo Huining?
However, Huo Guanchen’s care and pity for Guo Huining did not seem to be fake.
This was not in line with their judgment, so they were also very confused and did not know what was going on.
So in the end, they decided to come and take a look in person to a.s.sess the possibility of Guo Huining.
Today’s opportunity was too good. They actually found out that not only did Huo Guanchen meet the blind date here, but he also invited Song Jinning.
Now, Song Jinning was simply sitting in front of Huo Guanchen, and Guo Huining had already suffered a crus.h.i.+ng defeat.
She looked at the IPAD with an obscure gaze, and realized that the pixels on the monitor had unknowingly become clearer.
It was no longer the very low pixels from before, but was so clear that even song Jinning’s long eyelashes could be seen clearly.
Song Jinning’s gentle and beautiful voice came through the earpiece at this time. Although she no longer carried any emotion, her pleasant voice was pleasant to hear even when she was scolding people, not to mention that with song Jinning’s upbringing.., she would never curse loudly in public.
“… General Huo, you said you had something to tell me about Shaoheng?”Song Jinning’s expression was very calm. “Can’t you tell me over the phone?”
Huo Guanchen rubbed his temples and pushed the ring box in his hand over. “Your birthday is in two days. I think you’ve already made an appointment with someone to celebrate your birthday. There’s no room for me anymore. This is an early birthday present for you.”
Song Jinning didn’t even look at it and pushed it back for him. “There’s no need. We don’t have anything to do with each other anymore. We’re not even friends anymore, so I can’t accept your birthday present.”
Huo Guanchen smiled bitterly. “Jinning, do you really have to be so heartless? We have a son. How can we not have anything to do with each other? Could it be that you and I didn’t even know each other at Shaoheng’s wedding?”
Song Jinning glanced at him. “Are you here to talk to me about Shaoheng’s wedding?”
Although she wasn’t, it seemed that if he said no, song jinning would immediately get up and leave.
After so many years as a husband and wife, he knew her too well.
Huo Guanchen could only nod, he said, “Shaoheng and Nianzhi have been engaged for more than a year. It’s time to prepare for the wedding. “I don’t know if you know, but the Russian president, Mr. Putin, also said that he would attend the wedding and wanted to be a witness for the two of them. “This isn’t a normal diplomatic occasion. We need to plan ahead.”
Song Jinning’s expression softened. “Then we need to plan well. What do you need me to do?”
Huo Guanchen fiddled with the ring box in his hands. In the end, he pushed the turquoise ring box over, “My mother left this for my brother to give to his wife,”he said. But his condition, you know, he didn’t want it, and then mother gave it to me before she died… you can give it to Nianzhi…”
