huo xi wen's phone suddenly rang in the middle of the night.

she, who was woken up, squinted her eyes to look at her phone, but found that the caller id was fu mujun.

her drowsiness came to her in an instant, and she sat up in bed and cleared her throat, trying to make her voice less husky.

"hey …" when she picked up the phone, she turned on the bedside lamp with its soft light.

"i'm in los angeles. give me your address and i'll be right there." on the other end of the phone, it was fu mujun's voice.

hearing that, huo xiwen became stupefied, "wh … what? didn't you just return home? why did you go to los angeles again? "

"because i want to see you." fu mujun said.

huo xiwen reacted at this moment. yesterday evening, he had sent a message saying that he wanted to see her, because she was injured and couldn't go out to meet him. he could only casually say that he was in the united states.

after that, fu mujun did not receive any news.

who would have thought that he would go to america without a word? was he trying to surprise her?

if huo xiwen was currently in the united states, he would definitely feel that this was a huge surprise.

however, she started to lie. she wasn't in the united states, so fu mujun's actions towards her were a huge shock and burden.

"send me your address. i want to see you right away." fu mujun said on the other end of the phone.

huo xiwen's breathing stagnated, and his heartbeat sped up as he tried to supply oxygen to his brain.

at the moment, she needed a perfect reason to reply to him, but she wasn't good at lying, especially when facing mu jun. he treated her so carefully, and didn't hesitate to travel far in order to meet her.

after thinking about it for two seconds, she finally decided to tell him the truth. i'm not in the united states right now, i'm in the country. "

"what do you mean? you've returned home? " fu mujun's tone was clearly a little disappointed.

"no, i lied to you before. i've been at home recently and haven't been to america." huo xiwen told him in a low voice.

there was silence on the other end of the line.

huo xiwen panicked a little, "um … "sorry, i didn't mean to lie to you, i …"

"if you don't want to see me, you don't need to come up with such an excuse." fu mujun said.

"no, why wouldn't i want to see you? "i …" she wanted to explain it to him.

however, fu mujun did not wait for her to finish, and directly said, "i do not think that you have any reason to lie."

in the beginning, she shouldn't have gone to make up a reason because she couldn't keep her appointment. even if she told him directly that she couldn't meet with him because of something, it would be better than lying to him.

"i'm sorry, i was wrong in this matter. what do you want to do to ease your anger?" she apologized, hoping he wouldn't just ignore her.

"do you really want to apologize?" fu mujun asked.

"of course, it's more real than pearls. i am one hundred and twenty thousand dollars sincere. " huo xi wen said.

"alright, in that case, i will forgive you. as for the punishment for lying to you, i have not decided yet." since you're at home, you should hurry up and rest. this time should be the time for you to sleep. " fu mujun said considerately at the end.

when huo xiwen heard this, she immediately felt a warm feeling in her heart. after saying goodbye to him and hanging up the phone, she let out a long sigh of relief.

he thought to himself, it's best not to lie about it in the future. otherwise, it would be really awkward to be slapped in the face by me.

the thought that fu muyun had just returned from abroad and had actually flown to the united states on a plane for more than ten hours just to meet her made her feel both surprised and happy.

she knew that this meant that fu mujun was starting to court her.

she slept soundly under the covers and had a beautiful dream. when she woke up in the morning, she felt completely refreshed.

she went downstairs on her walking stick and found that chen yanzhuo still hadn't woken up. after asking old li about it, she found out that he left last night. she thought that this guy probably went to see her girlfriend last night.

sitting at the dining table, she was about to start eating when she heard the sound of a car engine outside, approaching from a distance.

old li heard the sound and turned around to leave the restaurant. not long later, she saw chen yanzhuo following him into the restaurant.

"eh? "why are you here?" huo xiwen saw chen yanzhuo. he must have rested well last night. his complexion looked much better than when he came back yesterday.

"why are you so surprised?" chen yanzhuo looked at her in amus.e.m.e.nt and sat down in the chair opposite her. old li instructed the kitchen to fill the bowl with chopsticks.

huo xi wen picked up a piece of bread, tore it open and stuffed it into his mouth while saying with a gossipy tone: "tell me honestly, did you go see your girlfriend last night? did you tell her about her heroics? is she really worshipping you now? "

chen yanzhuo stared at her for a few seconds as she asked, "you seem to be particularly interested in my girlfriend?"

"no …." "of course not, i was just casually asking …" huo xiwen laughed in embarra.s.sment, wanting to get away.

"you asked so many questions, but if you really put your heart into it, would i not have the time to eat this breakfast?" at this time, chen yanzhuo looked at the female worker who was coming over with breakfast.

the female worker placed her breakfast in front of him and silently moved to the side.

"fine, fine, fine. i won't ask anymore. hurry up and eat." huo xiwen also felt that he was being a bit too excessive, so he immediately shut his mouth.

chen yanzhuo picked up his knife and fork and began to eat his breakfast in a leisurely manner.

huo xiwen stared at him for a while, and couldn't help but ask, "how long until my foot gets better?"

"what is it? "are you in a hurry?" chen looked up at her.

"of course, it's too inconvenient. besides, i can't stay here forever and cause trouble for others." after all, this was not her territory, so she was somewhat restrained.

"don't you like it here?" chen yanzhuo asked.

"i do like it, but …" huo xi wen suddenly asked: "oh right, did you tell your friend that i wanted to buy his winery? did he agree? "

"i haven't had the time yet." "yes," he replied.

"then you must remember to ask, if he is willing to sell right now, i will not leave here." huo xi wen said.

"alright." chen put down his knife and fork, took a sip of the milk in front of him, and then wiped his mouth with a napkin.

"are you not going to eat?" huo xiwen discovered that he hadn't even eaten a few mouthfuls.

"i'm full." "stay here. if you need anything, just tell old li and the others. if they can't solve the problem, then call me. i'm going to the company."
