Chapter 425: Chapter 425: What Did You Do Last Night?
Just then, Huo Yanhui pushed open the door of the restaurant and walked in, his face full of vigor.
Li Bo smiled, “Second Young Master, you’ve finally come back.”
Su Zixi was surprised, “You didn’t come back yesterday?”
Now that she thought about it, she indeed hadn’t seen this young master all day.
Huo Yanhui arrogantly raised an eyebrow and sat down opposite Su Zixi, “Little sister-in-law, you’re so unconcerned about me, it really hurts my feelings.”
“Stop talking nonsense!” Su Zixi said sternly, “Come clean, where were you last night?”
Could it be that he really won over Ye Shutong? That was way too fast!
Huo Yanhui waved his hand, “It’s not as dirty as you think, I went to the National New Energy Research Institute last night.”
Su Zixi was somewhat speechless. This playboy actually had the nerve to say others had dirty minds. Clearly, he was the dirtiest of all!
“How did you end up going there?” Su Zixi asked.
The New Energy Research Institute sounded very prestigious.
“Shutong is a key researcher there, you didn’t know. I watched her conduct experiments all night, she was really impressive,” Huo Yanhui said dreamily.
Su Zixi looked at him earnestly and labeled his expression as infatuated.
“Then… when she came out, she saw me and even smiled at me!” Huo Yanhui said excitedly, “This means she remembers me!”
Su Zixi blinked, “…so, you’re saying you haven’t actually spoken to her these past two days?”
“Yeah, it’s not that easy!” Huo Yanhui said as if it were obvious, “The day before yesterday I went to Ye International because she holds an important position there, and yesterday I went to the research institute.”
After a long silence, Su Zixi finally said, “So, you’ve just been stalking her and spying these past two days?”
A man like Huo Yanhui, how could he do such disgraceful things!
Huo Yanhui glanced at her, “Do you think I’m that stupid? I went to Ye International pretending to have business to discuss, and I visited the research institute because a friend took me on a tour… To her, our meeting seemed accidental, like fate! Do you understand?”
Su Zixi couldn’t help thinking, you had such a foolish look when you met her, do you think she couldn’t tell…
However, Su Zixi couldn’t bring herself to dampen Huo Yanhui’s enthusiasm, so she asked, “Do you think this approach will make her see you in a new light?”
“The fact proves that she was indeed impressed by me,” Huo Yanhui boasted, “Otherwise, she wouldn’t have smiled at me when she left the research institute this morning.”
Su Zixi was at a loss for words and could only tell him “good luck.”
“Don’t worry, there’s no woman I can’t charm!” Huo Yanhui said shaking his head, then he casually ate something and stood up, “Ouch, I didn’t sleep all last night, I’m going to catch some sleep now.”
With that, Huo Yanhui unsteadily left the restaurant.
Soon after, Huo Yanhui’s shrieks could be heard from outside, “Holy cow! All these flowers! And what? Gifts? Are they for me?”
Upon hearing this, Su Zixi hurriedly ran out and yelled at Huo Yanhui, “Don’t you dare touch them! They are all mine!”
After lunch, Su Zixi went to unwrap her gifts.
Most of the gifts were exquisite jewelry and various bizarre tech products from HI Corporation, which completely captivated Su Zixi.
Until she received a call from Dr. Qin.
