I'm not interested in you
At the bustling and bustling banquet, Huo Jing Yan's reappearance caused the entire atmosphere to boil once again. Countless famous young ladies looked at this handsome man who was as dazzling as the sun with fervent eyes.
When Chen Xi rushed down, she saw his existence from the mortal world. Her heartbeat accelerated at that moment, as if there was something that she couldn't suppress and wanted to jump out.
She looked at him and walked toward him unconscious. She was stopped by someone.
"Xi Er!"
"Mom, I …" She looked back and lowered her head, realizing that she had lost her composure. If she suddenly walked in front of him like this, she would probably be the kind of girl he thought was frivolous.
"Silly child, how can your mom not understand your thoughts? Come, I'll bring you over with your dad." Chen Mu looked at Chen Xi lovingly, and said gently.
Chen Xi blushed and nodded.
So, Chen Mu and Chen's father led the shy Chen Xi over to Huo Jing Yan. Chen's father took the initiative to smile amiably and greeted him politely: "Young Master Huo! Not bad, you're young and promising. I'm Chen Xueming of the Rising Sun Corporation. It's been a long time since we last met, Hutong is really young and promising.
The Rising Sun Group had been working in the mall for many years, but they had always been in the middle tier. However, the Chen's father did have some business skills, and it was not easy to maintain them.
Chen Xu Ming said these words and it could be said that he was giving Huo Jing Yan a lot of face. After all, he wanted his daughter to be able to have a good relationship with the Huo Jing Yan in front of him.
But Huo Jing Yan's expression was indifferent, and he said only: "Boss Chen is too polite."
Chen Xu Ming felt a little awkward, but he still introduced his family: "This is my wife, Xu Jie, and this is my daughter, called Chen Xi."
After saying that, Chen Xu Ming intentionally looked towards Chen Xi and said: "Xi Er, quickly greet Hutong."
Chen Xi stood so close to the man she admired, and her heart felt as if there were tens of thousands of little deer bumping around. It was both excitement and fear, and she tried her best to control her emotions, greeting him steadily and gently: "My name is Chen Xi, Hutong, I am very happy to meet you."
"Yes."
expressionlessly replied as he glanced at her. This must be the friend of the toddler, since she was worried about the little fellow previously. Huo Jing Yan stood there patiently and didn't leave.
Chen Xu Ming and his wife looked at each other, both seeing that Huo Jing Yan was not disgusted with his daughter, their faces revealed happy smiles, and purposely left after finding a topic to talk about.
Leaving behind Huo Jing Yan and Chen Xi, Chen Xi became even more nervous as she stammered, "I-we met once a few years ago, does Hutong still remember?"
"I don't remember."
Chen Xi was startled, but she was still satisfied with the joy of standing and chatting with him.
She understood that he didn't like talking to girls, and that was good.
So she braced herself and tried to find something in the magazine that said he was interested.
"I heard that Hutong likes to listen to symphony music. I think the symphony music that Keating directs is very contagious. I also heard that he will be touring China next month. I don't know …"
"Not interested." Without waiting for Chen Xi to finish speaking, Huo Jing Yan immediately interrupted her and rejected her offer.
Chen Xi's eyes revealed traces of injury, but she still maintained a cautious expression, not wanting to anger him. She asked: "I wonder what Hutong is interested in?"
Hearing that, Huo Jing Yan looked at Chen Xi with a smile that was not a smile.
In that instant, Chen Xi's face became extremely red, and she did not dare to raise her head to look at Huo Jing Yan. Although it was said that men were creatures that thought for their lower body, to directly say it out loud like Huo Jing Yan was still the first.
Chen Xi suddenly did not know what to say, and could only stutter: "Actually everyone's interest is different, like …"
"Your name is Chen Xi?"
Huo Jing Yan's eyes flashed with a trace of impatience as he directly looked at Chen Xi and asked.
"Uh, yes." Chen Xi flashed a trace of joy, and forgot the awkwardness just now, sinking into the joy that Huo Jing Yan actually remembered his name.
In the next second, Huo Jing Yan's words made her feel extremely sad.
"Miss Chen, I'll tell you straight out, I don't have any interest in you. Remember, it's sexual desire."
Being able to endure for so long, Huo Jing Yan saw that it was about time and directly sent Chen Xi off.
If it wasn't because he was too lazy to chat with those bored people and didn't want to get entangled by that bunch of messy women, he wouldn't have spent so much time listening to such weird words. It was simply annoying.
Huo Jing Yan immediately turned and left, leaving Chen Xi standing there with an awkward expression, feeling greatly shocked because of his words.
To a woman, there were two types of pain: one was ugly, the other was asexual.
And all the while, he had directly said these words without even looking at her. Presumably, he really didn't like her, Chen Xi silently shed tears in his heart, and bit down on his lips to restrain himself.
Huo Jing Yan directly went to the deck, where everything made him a little tired. Just as he was about to blow the wind, he heard a teasing tone.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I saw you hurting a girl's heart as soon as I returned home, it's truly sinful."
"When did you return home?" Seeing the gentle and elegant Xu Ze Ya, Huo Jing Yan's cold expression finally had a hint of change, and a trace of warmth had seeped into the corner of his eyes.
In just a few months, Huo Jing Yan had not seen his good brother. Huo Jing Yan suspected that this guy was not willing to return to his country and was tempted by the beauties from abroad.
"I've just returned home, so I came to specially attend your celebratory feast." Xu Ze Ya said with a gentle smile.
Hearing this, Huo Jing Yan laughed softly, and said: "I had thought that you would bring back a beautiful woman from a foreign country, but I didn't expect you to be alone, without a single woman."
Xu Ze Ya shrugged helplessly, looked at Huo Jing Yan, and joked: "Aren't you the same? We're both the same, so let's not talk about each other anymore. I heard that Old Man Huo was extremely anxious, so he called me to ask if there's anything wrong with you! "
Hearing his words, Huo Jing Yan immediately showed a hint of coldness: "If I can't do it, then of course there will be people who know."
"Oh? From your words, it can't be that you really have it, right? " Xu Ze Ya was shocked. He had been friends with Huo Jing Yan for so many years, he understood everything about Huo Jing Yan the best.
This fellow hadn't stepped out of the shadows of the past four years. He didn't even want to touch a woman because too many things had happened four years ago, too many things …
If there really was a woman, Xu Ze Ya was slightly curious as to who this girl was, as she was actually able to move the aloof and cold Huo Jing Yan's heart.
