novelWith You

Huo Yaoting tightened his jaw, a trace of scarlet flashed past his eyes, and he clenched his teeth, "Don't make me repeat myself!"
In the end, Huo Chengshang could not bear to make him angry, so she slowly released his hand.
With an ashen face, Huo Yaoting lifted his head and drank another cup of red wine.
He went to fetch another long bottle of red wine.
Huo Chengshang's pupils shrank. He went ahead and picked up the bottle of red wine first.
He didn't wait for someone to go crazy.
He raised his head and gulped down the entire bottle of red wine.
Then, with a "pa" sound, it was placed on top of the long table.
Huo Yaoting looked at the bottle of red wine in the sky.
The corner of his mouth twitched. He looked at the man who was burping and blushing, but couldn't say a word.
Huo Chengshang giggled at him.
Then, his tall and muscular body abruptly fell onto the sofa behind him, unconscious!
"??" Huo Yaoting looked at the drunk "Barbaric Cow" lying on the sofa, and the corner of his eyes twitched.
This fool didn't know how to drink and still drank so much? Was he stupid?!
Huo Yaoting looked at the empty wine bottle on the table gloomily. He could not take it anymore and glared at Huo Chengshang fiercely.
After being treated like that, his interest in drinking had also disappeared.
He bent down and placed the wine cup on the table.
Frowning, he unbuttoned his shirt and walked toward the bedroom.
After he finished showering and wearing his bathrobe, Huo Yaoting picked up his cell phone and opened it. Other than Qi Song reporting to him about his flight back to the city tonight and expressing his joy, gratitude and other such oily "trash information", there was no other news or phone calls from any of the little girls.
Huo Yaoting's fingers tightened on his phone, and he flung it onto the sofa angrily.
Unexpectedly, his aim was too good, the phone just happened to land on Huo Chengshang's head.
"Mm??" Huo Chengshang groaned, but did not wake up.
However, the culprit only looked at the red mark on his forehead from the phone calmly, and even caused the phone to fall down from his forehead to Huo Chengshang's neck, with no intention of taking it off.
Sitting on the other side of the sofa, Huo Yaoting lit up a cigarette and put it between her lips.
He leaned his head back against the back of the sofa, his mind filled with images of some little girl in B City.
This girl had no conscience. Since her mother-in-law was fine, she would give him a call to inform him that she was safe.
Or did the little girl think that he really did not care about the people she cared about?
At the same time, the girl didn't trust him enough and kept misunderstanding him.
This feeling was terrible!
However, what was even worse was not this.
In fact, when the little girl was so helpless and scared, he wasn't by her side!
Huo Yaoting suddenly frowned, a large half of the cigarette in his mouth had been sucked out.
The ash from the cigarette fell onto the carpet, crumbling and spilling everywhere.
In the next moment, the cigarette butts between his lips were abruptly pressed out in the long ashtray with his long, well-defined fingers.
City B. Ye Family Apartment.
"Madam, please eat this." Aunt Wu placed the prepared white tofu in front of Xu Qiu and urged him on.
Xu Qiu looked at the tofu in front of him in confusion, "Sis Wu, what does that mean?"
"Madam, although you're not in jail, you just came out from the police station. You should eat some tofu to get unlucky." Aunt Wu said as he stuffed the spoon into Xu Qiu's hands.
"Eating tofu to degrade luck?" Xu Qiu was surprised.
"Yes, ma'am, eat quickly." Aunt Wu said.
Ye Xi laid on Xu Qiu's shoulder like a dog, hearing Aunt Wu's words, he laughed at him, "Aunt Wu, you watched too many Korean dramas, right? All the Korean dramas are like this? "
Aunt Wu's face turned red, "Hu, you're lying. This sword of mine, at my age, look, why are you watching Korean dramas!"
"How do you know if you don't watch Korean dramas or not?" Ye Xi laughed sinisterly.
"??" The Aunt Wu was speechless.
Ye Xi pursed his lips and laughed secretly, then looked at Xu Qiu and said, "Mom, this is also a gift from Aunt Wu, hurry up and eat it, otherwise Aunt Wu will feel embarrassed."
Looking at Aunt Wu's embarrassed face, Xu Qiu could only nod his head, "Alright, I'll eat."
"Yes, yes." Ye Xi smiled and nodded.
Xu Qiu looked at his daughter's smiling face tenderly and sighed softly.
If it wasn't for her daughter, she might still be crying when she went to the police station.
Her daughter was the driving force behind all her strength!
As long as he thought of her, all the setbacks and tribulations meant nothing to her.
Xu Qiu couldn't help but rub Ye Xi's little head again. Then, he lowered his head and ate all of the tofu prepared by the Aunt Wu completely under the surveillance of his four eyes.
After eating the tofu, Xu Qiu called the hotel to report to them that he was safe. This meant that the suspicion of poison in the hotel had been eliminated, and everyone felt at ease.
After hanging up, Xu Qiu looked towards Ye Xi who was sitting beside her, "Xiao Xi, mother is fine now. Don't always accompany mother, go and do your own things."
"I'm fine. After graduation, it became a reply yesterday, to work at Huo's, and to Monday."Therefore, I have nothing to do for the past two days. However, I will accompany you." Ye Xi said as he held her hand.
"If you accompany me, what about Yaoting?" Xu Qiu pinched her small face.
Hearing him mention someone, Ye Xi suddenly remembered that she had not called him to inform him that she was safe!
Biting his lips in frustration, Ye Xi looked at Xu Qiu and said, "Mother, he went on a business trip and will only be back in a few days?? Yeah, Mom. I'll make a phone call first! "
After Ye Xi finished speaking, he grabbed his bag and ran into her room.
Looking at his back that was burning with impatience, Xu Qiu couldn't help but laugh lightly and shake his head.
He was just about to get up to see what Aunt Wu was preparing for lunch.
The phone in the living room rang.
Xu Qiu was a little startled. Not many people knew the number of her home phone, and those who looked for her usually used their phones.
Ye Zichen frowned, moved to the side of the tea table, then picked up the phone with suspicion.
Ye Xi returned to his room and immediately took out his phone from his bag. He sat down on the edge of the bed and dialed a person's number.
The call that usually went through very quickly was delayed this time.
In the end, he didn't even pick up the phone.
Ye Xi stared at the phone in disappointment, unconsciously biting his lower lip.
Guess all the possibilities of him not answering the phone.
Maybe he was working right now, maybe his cell phone was muted so he didn't hear anything.
After hesitating for ten minutes, Ye Xi called another person.
But in the end, no one answered.
For some unknown reason, Ye Xi felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he did not dare call him again, afraid that someone would disturb him while he was working.
He ran his fingers over the screen for a few minutes.
In the end, Ye Xi did not continue onward.
He feebly held his phone and lay on the bed for twenty minutes.
Ye Xi took a deep breath and prepared to leave.
He hadn't taken a single step.
The phone in his hand suddenly rang.
