novelMy Husband
| ← Ch.145 | Ch.147 → |
A flash of resentment flashed in the woman's eyes, but she pretended to be humble and smiled in embarrassment, "Of, of course not, I was just casually asking."
With that, she turned and walked toward her seat.
Huo Yaoting squinted his eyes, when the lady walked back, he clearly saw the people on the long table exchanging glances quickly, and then all of them lowered their heads.
Her thin lips slightly curled up as if she understood something.
"Xiao Xi, although I met your boyfriend last time, we don't know each other, do you mind if I introduce him?" The corner of Gu Xi ing's mouth quirked into a smile, her beautiful eyes turned around, and lightly passed by Huo Yaoting's face as she looked at him.
Ye Xi did not try to cover it up this time, and said generously: "Huo Yaoting, I??" The corner of his mouth twitched."My husband."
Husband?
Gu Xi ing's eyes flashed with surprise, and quickly became relieved.
This was what couples called each other these days. Even before marriage, they would call each other husband and wife. It might not even be a part of their relationship in the future.
Once Ye Xi finished introducing them, he felt someone hold his hands even tighter.
Lightly raising the corners of her eyes, she saw a certain someone staring at her with deep, dark eyes.
The little deer's heart was beating wildly and its little face was red. She secretly pinched his arm with her hand.
Huo Yaoting frowned, pretending to be in pain.
Ye Xi's heart ached, and he pinched his fingers to comfort her.
Her small action completely pleased Huo Yaoting. Her thin lips pouted, and her other hand gently pressed the small hand that was on her arm.
The two of them acted as though no one was around to show their affection. When Gu Xi ing saw this, he was secretly infuriated.
She lifted her chin and turned towards the main seat, "Xiao Xi, come sit."
Ye Xi looked at her back and frowned. Her attitude didn't have the slightest modesty of the owner, making it seem as if she was in a hurry to attend her birthday party.
He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but Ye Xi was a pure and i ocent girl, so everything was written on her face, looking a little depressed.
Seeing that, Huo Yaoting narrowed his eyes and whispered into her ear, "If you don't want to stay, then leave."
Ye Xi glanced at him, lightly shook his head, and said in a small voice, "No matter what, it's her birthday today. Since she came, it's very rude to leave now." Pausing for a moment, Ye Xi looked at Huo Yaoting worriedly, "Hubby, do you want to leave? If you want to go, let's go."
Huo Yaoting's heart ached for her but at the same time, his heart warmed, caressing her hair, "Hubby is fine."
Ye Xi nodded.
He looked at Gu Xi ing who had already sat down and looked at the two of them, and took a deep breath, then pulled Huo Yaoting up the stairs and walked towards the dining table.
After entering, he found that there were only two empty seats left on both sides of the long table. One was on Gu Xi ing's left, and the other was on Gu Xi ing's right.
Ye Xi was at a loss, and looked at Huo Yaoting.
Huo Yaoting raised his eyebrows, the gentleman thoughtfully pulled open the empty seat on the left of Gu Xi ing and looked at him with his clear eyes.
He was treasured by such an imposing ma er, and every single movement, every single expression, and every single one of them was filled with a calm and noble man.
All of the female compatriots present could not help but reveal envious looks as they looked straight at Ye Xi.
Meanwhile, the men around the table felt ashamed of their appearance and didn't dare to look at her directly.
Gu Xi ing clenched her fingers which were on her knees. In her rage and jealousy, there was an additional trace of determination.
Although Ye Xi was unwilling to part with him, but being stared at by so many people, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and sit down.
After he sat down, Ye Xi reluctantly turned to look at him.
Huo Yaoting looked at her, and felt an incomparable sense of joy, that the little girl would need to depend on him.
He reached out and grabbed her small hand, looking at the man sitting on the seat beside Ye Xi with his clear eyes, "Can you change seats?"
It sounded like a discussion, and his tone was low.
However, the man felt inexplicably oppressed. It was as if his rationality had been suppressed. In panic, he stood up and gave way.
"Thank you!" Huo Yaoting smirked and sat next to Ye Xi.
The man stood behind him for a long time before he realized that he had moved aside without realizing it.
Sweat trickled down his forehead as he took a deep breath and walked to the right side of Gu Xi ing and sat down.
Gu Xi ing's face became ugly, and stared coldly at the man.
The man touched his nose, looking i ocent.
Gu Xi ing groaned, her gaze turned to look at Ye Xi who was elated, a look of hatred flashed past her eyes, she lowered her head, picked up her knife and fork, and started to eat.
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched as they began to eat in silence.
A birthday feast that should have been filled with joy and excitement was now completely silent. There were obviously a lot of people, but it was extremely cold and desolate. This scene was truly strange.
Ye Xi glanced at the cold face of Gu Xi ing as he ate, he lowered his head and took small sips of the steak that someone had sliced for her, not minding at all.
During the meal, everyone was silent, but they ate quickly.
After using it, Ye Xi was pondering and took his leave.
However, Gu Xi ing opened his mouth at this moment, and his tone suddenly became warm."Today is Gu Xi ing's twenty-second birthday, so everyone can play as much as you want, and won't leave until you're drunk!"
"Heh??" After her words, the silent crowd suddenly turned into a wild horse that had escaped from its rein. Sigh!
They formed groups in twos and threes, chattering happily while carrying red wine. Ye Xi also found that this private room was really special, there was even a billiard room and chess room.
At this time, the birthday banquet finally had its liveliness and liveliness.
But Ye Xi's nature was calm, and he was not used to the sudden noise and heat, his body sticking to Huo Yaoting's body.
Huo Yaoting squinted his eyes, and lightly pulled Ye Xi into his embrace, then whispered into her ear: "Let's go?"
Ye Xi nodded, "I'll go tell Xi ing."
As she spoke, she was about to withdraw from his embrace when he tightened his arms."I'll go with you."
"Fine." Ye Xi smiled at him.
Gu Xi ing was being escorted by a few men and women, talking about something, but she kept looking at Ye Xi and Yue Yang from the corner of her eyes. Seeing the two of them walking towards her, her red lips lightly hooked up, pretending not to know anything.
"Xi ing..."
"Xiao Xi, I was just about to look for you." Just as Ye Xi opened his mouth, Gu Xi ing walked out of the crowd enthusiastically, and affectionately grabbed onto one of Ye Xi's hands: "Accompany me to play mahjong, alright?"
Hit - Ham - General?
Ye Xi pursed his lips and looked at the hand she was holding.
Do you not understand what she, Gu Xi ing, is pla ing to do?
Cold at one time, hot at the other. Change at will!
Frowning.
Although Ye Xi had a soft temper, it did not mean that he lacked backbone.
In other words, why do I have to endure when you're cold, and be warm when you're warm?
Her pride wouldn't allow her to do that!
