"I know, but I don't have as much strength as him. If you mind, how about I tell him to carry you up there?" he asked deliberately.
Huo XIwen suddenly felt that he had been a bit too hypocritical, and felt a bit embarrassed: "Forget it, it's alright. I already picked it up, so let's do it this way."
Seeing her helpless tone, Chen Yanzhuo held back his laughter and didn't say anything else. He carried her upstairs to her room and put her on the bed.
"Take a rest. Someone will come in later to help you wash up." He turned to leave.
"Wait a moment." Huo XIwen called out to him.
Chen turned his head and his eyes fell on her face, as if he was waiting for her to speak.
"Thank you for having Qingyun come see me today." she whispered.
"I originally wanted to inform your brother..."
"Don't, don't ever let him know." Huo Xiwen shook her head when she heard that he wanted to notify Huo Jiujiu.
"Why?" Chen Yanzhuo suddenly asked curiously.
"If he knew I was injured, he would definitely scold me harshly. He might even let my mommy find out. Moreover, he thinks you're my boyfriend, then even you will be scolded." Huo XIwen replied.
"I don't mind." In fact, he thinks it's really his fault.
"I've already given you a lot of trouble." Since she knew he was working for the police, she no longer took his care of her for granted.
He didn't owe her anything. On the contrary, he was still trying to protect her and save her at a critical moment. She had no place to blame him for that alone.
"I don't think it's a problem." Chen Yanzhuo smiled. His tone was relaxed.
Huo XIwen looked at his jade-like face, and was suddenly infected by his smile. He also laughed, "Mr. Chen, you must have had a lot of girlfriends, right?"
"Why do you ask?" Chen asked her.
"You're handsome, you're young, you're capable, and you're considerate and meticulous towards women. Men like you are the most liked by women." Huo XIwen praised him generously.
"Do you like me?" Chen Yanzhuo suddenly asked.
"Huh?" For a moment, Huo XIwen didn't react. When she realized what he meant, her face immediately turned red, and her expression turned somewhat embarrassed, "Erm..."
"Don't like me, or my girlfriend will be angry." Chen Yanzhuo interrupted her and said seriously.
When Huo XIwen heard this, he was stunned for a moment. But then, he seemed to heave a sigh of relief, "You already have a girlfriend?"
"Didn't you just say that a man like me is most likeable? I have a girlfriend, isn't that a very normal thing? " Chen Yanzhuo looked at her relaxed appearance and faintly smiled.
"That's true." Huo Xi Wen nodded, but she immediately thought of something else and asked anxiously: "Aiya, your girlfriend isn't in City Y is she? If she misunderstands our relationship, that would be bad."
"Don't worry, she won't misunderstand." Chen Yanzhuo replied in a calm voice.
"Really? Let me tell you, you must not overestimate a woman's jealousy. Sometimes, even if you know something that is impossible, if she sees or hears it, your heart will still feel uncomfortable." Huo XIwen was a little worried. Although she wanted to pretend to be a couple and help the police solve the case, it wouldn't be good if someone misunderstood her as a third party that would destroy their relationship.
"If I say no, then no, you don't have to worry about this." Chen Yanzhuo directly threw her a tranquilizer.
Hearing him say this, Huo XIwen did not dwell on this issue anymore. In any case, the relationship between her and him was pure. The heaven and earth could be seen for what it was, and there was nothing for him to feel guilty about.
"Speaking of which, what does your girlfriend do? I've never heard you mention it, nor have I seen you call her." At this moment, Huo XIwen was filled with curiosity again.
"She's the heir to a big group." Chen Yanzhuo said.
"She's also a big miss, is she pretty?" she asked again.
"Very pretty." "Yes, " he replied.
"The eyes of a lover are like the eyes of a cicada. No matter what, they are beautiful. This question just now seems to be a bit of a bullshit." Huo Xi Wen said to himself.
"Do you have anything else to ask?" Chen Yanzhuo asked in amusement as he looked at her appearance.
"How did you meet?" Are you ready to get married? When will we get married? Does she know you're doing something for the police? "You guys..." Huo XIwen asked a lot of questions.
After she finished talking, Chen Yanzhuo didn't answer her. He just looked at her for a long time, then said slowly, "Miss Huo is so interested in my girlfriend. She can't have fallen for me, right?"
"What?" Huo XIwen's brain didn't have time to react in time, but in the next second, she showed an exaggerated expression as she quickly waved her hands: "I like you? How is this possible? In this world, I will only like one man and that is Fu Muyun."
"Boss Fu will definitely be very happy to hear this." Chen Yanzhuo said.
"Is that so?" At this time, Huo XIwen remembered that Fu Yun had said that he would send her a message later. Even now, after finishing dinner for so long, there was still no news of her. A feeling of loss involuntarily arose within him.
"Do you want to go up to the attic and look at the stars?" Chen asked.
"In the attic?" Huo XIwen looked up at him.
"The top of the pavilion is inlaid with a large piece of glass. If you lie on the deck chair in the attic, you will be able to see the sky full of stars. Do you want to take a look?" Chen Yanzhuo explained.
It was still too early for her to sleep at this time. Since she was lying on the bed with nothing to do, she felt a little moved."It doesn't seem convenient for me to go upstairs like this."
"I'll hug you." Chen Yanzhuo said, and without waiting for her to refuse, he directly went up and picked her up in his arms.
He didn't know if it was because he had just discussed a topic he liked with Huo Xi Wen, but he felt that he was in his arms, and his heart was beating faster.
What happened to her?
Why did he suddenly become nervous?
Raising her head slightly, her gaze followed his elegant long neck and fell on his cold and hard chin. From her point of view, the outline of Chen Yanzhuo's inclined face was exceptionally clear. For a moment, she seemed to see another familiar face superimposing on it.
Was he hallucinating?
She shook her head, laughing inwardly. Why would she mix him and Fu Muyun together?
They were strangers who had never met.
In one breath, he carried her up to the attic and put her on the deck chair. Only then did Huo XIwen realize that this attic was completely a sunflower room with many white and yellow roses growing inside, it was exceptionally beautiful.
