Chapter 157 With Charlotte Heart
The newspaper said that Huo Yunqi had been lost by Xia Luobing and Feng Shuo’s joint plan and had to leave the United States to start a new business. During this period of time, Xia Luoxin had always accompanied him and fought with him. Now that the two of them had returned together, it wasn’t long before there would be a grand wedding.
“Together? Support each other?” Intoxicated, he pinched the newspaper’s livid face and ruthlessly crushed it onto the floor. He felt that he had stepped on it a few times before he could calm down. He said angrily, “Huo Yunqi is too much! Bing Bing almost gave birth to his child, but he was hooked up with Charlotte Xin. How hateful!”
Gao Yi’an’s expression was serious as he stroked his eyebrows with his fingers, as if nothing could be done to calm him down. “Don’t tell Bing Bing about this.”
“Do you think she doesn’t know?” Intoxicated, he rolled his eyes at Gao Yi’an and said hatefully, “I’m going to find Huo Yunqi!”
She wanted to personally tell that b.a.s.t.a.r.d how much Bing Bing had suffered for him!
“Come back!” Gao Yi’an quickly grabbed Tao Zui and said seriously, “Perhaps Bing Bing has her own plans. If you rush over to look for Huo Yunqi like this, it will disrupt Bing Bing’s plan. Also, Bing Bing doesn’t want Huo Yunqi to know about Duo Duo’s existence.”
“But what if Huo Yunqi is really with Xia Luoxin? What if Bing Bing does?” Zui was stunned for a moment. He walked back and forth in the living room and gritted his teeth in frustration, “But what if Huo Yunqi is really with Xia Luoxin?”
There was an impossible person living in her heart, so she knew more clearly that Xia Luobing had never let go of Huo Yunqi. If she was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by Xia Luoxin like this, wouldn’t she be frustrated for the rest of her life?
“Wait and see. Maybe things will change again” Gao Yi’an’s gaze fell on the newspaper that had been intoxicated and rubbed into a ball, his gaze heavy. “At the very least, we need to discuss it with Bing Bing first and listen to her thoughts.”
Intoxicated, she calmed down and sat on the sofa. After a moment of silence, she looked at Gao Yi’an and said, “You should have told her that you like her earlier.”
Perhaps things wouldn’t have turned out like this. Gao Yi’an’s personality was gentle and generous. He would definitely take good care of Xia Luobing and not let her suffer so much.
Gao Yi’an was stunned for a moment before smiling bitterly, “If I knew that she and Huo Yunqi were working so hard together, I would definitely fight harder to stay by her side.”
Unfortunately, there was never an ifs in this world.
“Forget it. Let’s not talk about that. I’ve made an appointment with a client today. I have to go first.” Intoxicated, he looked at Gao Yi’an and warned, “Don’t forget to go to the kindergarten to pick up Duo Duo and go home.”
After returning to City A, Intoxicated took over the Tao family’s company. Fortunately, she had been very skilled in these jobs in the past few years abroad, and she started very quickly.
The meeting place was a five-star hotel in City A. Intoxicated, he sat in the lobby of the hotel and waited for the other party. He casually glanced at it. A man wearing sungla.s.ses came in and registered at the counter before leaving in a hurry.
“Huo Yunzhan!” Intoxicated suddenly stood up and subconsciously shouted, chasing after that person’s back to the entrance of the hotel. However, when the people outside came and went, they couldn’t see the person she had just seen. They couldn’t help but feel disappointed, “What’s wrong with me …”
Intoxicated, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. Didn’t he already say that he wanted to put it down? Why did he almost lose control of his emotions just by seeing a similar figure?
“May I ask what that gentleman just asked?” Intoxicated, he walked to the front desk of the hotel with unwillingness and tried his best to smile generously. “He and I are friends. We didn’t have time to ask him.”
The receptionist recognized Zui and looked at the record. She raised her head and smiled politely, “Mr. Bai is here to make sure that President Huo’s guests have already checked in.”
“Mr. Bai?” Intoxicated, his eyes widened and he blurted out in surprise, “Isn’t he surnamed Huo? Why is he white?”
“He’s Mr. Yunqi’s secretary, Bai Lin,” smiled the receptionist.
Tao Zui was stunned for a moment and nodded awkwardly at the other party. It turned out that she really recognized the wrong person. Bing Bing said that Huo Yunzhan was on a very dangerous mission, so why would she appear here?
And if it was really Huo Yunzhan, how could he become Huo Yunqi’s secretary?
‘”Bai Lin” Intoxicated, she shook her head and self-mockingly pulled the corners of her mouth. It was she who pushed him away, so she probably would never have the chance to see him again.
The receptionist took a puzzled look at the intoxicated guest. She was busy registering the guest’s information when there was a guest check-in, and did not ponder over her abnormal reaction.
When Charlotte came home from work in the evening, she was surprised to see someone leaning against the door with her hands crossed over her shoulders, “Intoxicated, why are you here?”
“Bing Bing, I have something to ask you.”
After leaving the hotel, he couldn’t help but think of Bai Lin’s figure. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it coincided with Huo Yunzhan’s memory. Then, he couldn’t wait for a minute to arrive at Xia Luobing ‘s place in a hurry.
“Come in.” Charlotte opened the door, took out two bottles of beer from the fridge, handed one to Intoxicated, and sat on the sofa, “What’s the matter?”
Five years later, Tao Zui was much more mature and steady. She also supported the Tao family’s company by herself. It was rare for Xia Luobing to see her in such a daze.
“Where’s Huo Yunzhan?” Tao Zui asked straightforwardly, his tone somewhat anxious. “You said he was going on a very dangerous mission. Now that five years have pa.s.sed, shouldn’t the mission be completed?”
Charlotte glanced at Intoxication. Seeing her nervous expression, she clutched the beer can tightly with her fingers and said worriedly, “Intoxication, what happened to you? Did something happen?”
“Bing Bing, tell me where Huo Yunzhan went?” Intoxicated, she did not answer Charlotte’s question and was eager to know the answer.
All she needed to know was that he lived well somewhere on earth.
Xia Luobing pondered for a moment, then held her intoxicated hand and whispered, “Intoxicated, I really don’t know what kind of mission he was carrying out.”
Seeing her intoxicated eyes dim, Xia Luobing couldn’t bear it. She thought for a moment and said, “Don’t be anxious. I’ll go ask Director Gao. Perhaps I can get some information.”
In principle, this was not allowed, but seeing how intoxicated she was, she could not ignore it.
“Sorry to trouble you, Bing Bing.” Intoxicated, he nodded his head in disappointment, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. “Do you think I’m very strange?”
Back then, she had clearly escaped, but now she was worried!
Charlotte shook her head and held her intoxicated hand. “Intoxicated, I’m very happy, because you can finally face your feelings truthfully. But why did you …”
Intoxicated, she pursed her lips and told Charlotte about meeting Bailin in the hotel today. Then, she sighed self-deprecatingly, “Do you think I’m crazy? I can’t believe I’m thinking about a similar figure.”
“Wait for him to come back. You guys should stay together.”
Xia Luobing sighed and advised. The world was so crowded. It was not easy for two people to be together, so when they could hold hands, they must not let go.
“I know.”
After comforting Tao Zui, Xia Luobing was about to cook when his phone on the table suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Xia Yan. “Dad, is there anything wrong?”
“Bing Bing, Luo Xin has been back for a few days. You should come home for dinner tonight.”
After hanging up the phone, Xia Luobing said guiltily to intoxication, “Originally, I wanted to keep you here for dinner, but Dad told me to go home for dinner, so I can only do it next time.”
Just now, he was intoxicated and sat at the side. He listened to Xia Yan’s words clearly and completely forgot all the sentimental feelings that had just arisen because of Huo Yunzhan. He grabbed Xia Luobing’s hand and said hatefully, “Luo Xin looks at her gently and lovingly, but her eyes are much more than yours. Don’t pay attention to her.”
“I did it for Dad.” Charlotte picked it up and put it on. She shrugged and said, “He gave up the company for me. I don’t want him to worry about these things anymore.”
Just now, she heard her father’s voice and was sure that he did not know what was in the newspaper.
Intoxicated, he sighed helplessly, “Alright.”
When Charlotte drove home, she was surprised to see the black car parked at the door. When did Charlotte like this color car? Could there be other customers?
“Sister, you’re back!” Xia Luoxin walked out of the living room and hugged Xia Luobing’s arm affectionately. She smiled and said, “I haven’t seen you for so many years. Big sister is getting more and more beautiful.”
On the other hand, Xia Yan looked at Xia Luobing in a somewhat embarra.s.sed manner and said guiltily, “Bing Bing, Dad doesn’t know …”
However, before Xia Yan could say anything, he was interrupted by a cold voice. Huo Yunqi walked over to Xia Luobing and stretched out his hand, “Captain Xia, we meet again.”
Charlotte stared at the hand in front of her. The man’s palm was upwards, and the lines on it were clear and coincided with his memory.
“Captain Xia?” Huo Yunqi’s high-pitched voice pulled Xia Luobing back from her thoughts. She seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with her reaction. “If you can’t be a husband and wife, you can be relatives. What do you think Captain Xia thinks?”
Relatives?
Xia Luobing suddenly regained her senses and looked at Huo Yunqi with a puzzled expression, “What do you mean?”
“Sister, I’m with Yunqi.” Xia Luoxin let go of Xia Luobing’s arm and stood beside Huo Yunqi. She tilted her head slightly and smiled sweetly, “Sister, you married Yunqi for Dad’s company back then. Now that you two are separated, can I be with him?”
“Luo Xin!” Xia Yan couldn’t help but say something, and then looked at Xia Luobing worriedly, “Bing Bing, what do you want to eat? Dad asked someone to prepare it for you.”
Charlotte glanced at Charlotte and noticed the complacency at the corner of her mouth. She said indifferently, “This is between you and him. Why do you ask me?”
After saying that, Xia Luobing looked at Xia Yan comfortably, signaling him not to worry. Five years had pa.s.sed, and even if she felt sad in her heart, she would not explode in public.
“I’ve already said that there’s no need for such a superfluous move.” Huo Yunqi looked at Charlotte intimately and said, “The love you have for me all the way is incomparable to anyone else.”
Charlotte’s eyes reddened and she choked, “I’m not afraid of anything when I’m with you …”
The two people on the other side seemed to have completely ignored her existence, or were deliberately making out in front of her.
“Dad, can we eat now?” Xia Luobing ignored the two of them and turned to look at Xia Yan. He smiled and said, “I’m hungry.”
w.a.n.g Xiaoman was coming out of the kitchen. He didn’t know if he had heard the conversation between the few people just now. He greeted Xia Luobing warmly, “Bing Bing, are you back? Where’s Duo Duo? Why didn’t you bring them back together?”
Xia Luobing’s expression turned cold. Her gaze was like a thin blade flying towards w.a.n.g Xiaoman, but her heart instantly grabbed hold of it. She didn’t even dare to look at Huo Yunqi’s expression … If he really competed with her for the child, what would she do?
