After Qiqi heard the footsteps downstairs, she paused while hiding behind the door.
Mr. Huo? Is he back?
Her hand on the door tightened a little, and she was no longer so scared. She came out of the strange and dark room.
At this time, Huo Shaoting walked to the hall, and the nanny on Tan Gong's side was communicating with him. The two of them had just said a few words, and Huo Shaoting saw Qiqi coming out of the room at a glance.
He paused.
Qiqi also stood upstairs looking at him.
Huo Shaoting walked towards her. When he reached her, he stood still and said, "If you need anything, just ask."
This sentence refers to the fact that Qiqi felt nervous and uneasy when she heard this at home.
The next sentence: "You can make any conditions, as long as I can compensate you." This is his second sentence.
Qiqi thought for a while: "Brother Shao Ting, she is my sister. I don't need your compensation, and I hope... you won't be angry with your sister."
Qiqi knew that she shouldn't get involved in their affairs, but she also didn't want to cause conflicts between him and her sister.
Huo Shaoting didn't seem to want to talk about what happened between him and Li Nai in front of her, so he just said, "Yeah." Then he said, "It's getting late, go to bed early."
After Huo Shaoting finished speaking, he left her side without saying anything more and walked slowly into a room.
Soon the servant from downstairs came up, came to her side and said, "Miss Qiqi, I will take you to your room."
Qiqi didn't know what she said wrong just now. She twitched her hands twice and responded obediently to the servant: "Okay."
The servant took her to the door of a room: "This is your room. Mr. Huo's room is next door. If you need anything, you can call me at any time."
Finally, she was no longer alone here. Qiqi relaxed a little, but she still said bravely: "Okay."
"The sir asked me to bring you a glass of milk in the evening."
Qiqi didn't expect him to give such instructions, so Qiqi gave a small hum.
The next morning Qiqi got up and went downstairs. This place was huge, really huge. Qiqi could hear the echo of her own footsteps even when she took a light step. When she got downstairs, Huo Shaoting was downstairs. Having breakfast at the dining table, he was wearing home clothes. He looked a bit casual, but his face was a bit serious.
He was looking down at the newspaper in his hand.
Qiqi walked slowly to the dining table. Huo Shaoting put down the newspaper in his hand and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
Qiqi stared at her toes: "It's okay."
Huo Shaoting closed the newspaper: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I asked the servants here to make some."
Qiqi looked down and saw a table of breakfast for two people, Western and Chinese style, which was really a bit exaggerated.
Qiqi didn't want to be a burden to him, so she added, "Brother Shao Ting, you don't have to take care of me. I will eat whatever is prepared here."
Huo Shaoting hummed and said quietly: "Sit down."
So all morning, the two of them ate quietly at the dining table without much communication.
After a while, Huo Shaoting said again: "I usually have work and social activities, so I am away from home most of the time. Can you adapt?"
Qiqi thought, now that she has moved in, there is no need to be so pretentious: "I, it's okay, I also have to go to class."
"Well, okay, I'll take you to school."
When Qiqi heard this, she refused: "No, Brother Shao Ting, I can go by myself. I can take the bus or subway."
In fact, Huo Shaoting didn't want her to feel restrained, so he let her do what she liked. He whispered: "Okay, you can treat this place as your own home. I will try to come back as early as possible tonight."
Qiqi nodded again, but halfway through, her head froze again.
I don't know if Qiqi was overthinking this sentence, but her hand holding the chopsticks sank a little deeper into the bowl.
After Qiqi arrived at Tan Palace in the evening, Huo Shaoting had not returned yet, and the servant came out to greet her: "Miss Qiqi."
Qiqi stopped in front of the servant and said, "Are you busy in the kitchen?"
The servant was a little surprised when he heard her ask, but he quickly replied: "I haven't prepared dinner yet, why don't you wait first?"
Qiqi knew that she had misunderstood what she meant, and immediately said, "No, I just want to help in the kitchen. I happen to have nothing to do."
The servant also noticed that she seemed a little unnatural here, and thought about her words for a few seconds: "Okay, then come with me."
After Qiqi put down her schoolbag, she followed the servant to the kitchen, and then was busy in the kitchen.
Compared with Li Nai's pampering, Qiqi can do most of the things because she lived with her grandmother. She helped the servant in the kitchen.
Then the servant thought of something and said, "Miss Lina loves flower cakes the most. I have been making them here for her for more than ten years."
When Qiqi heard this, she stopped kneading the dough.
When the time reached nine o'clock in the evening, Huo Shaoting's car came back. The servant said to Qi Qi: "Mr. Huo is back. Please pick him up for me."
When Qiqi heard this, she could only wash her hands immediately, then came out of the kitchen and walked towards the door.
Huo Shaoting just walked into the hall, and Qiqi still had a little flour on her cheeks. She didn't notice it herself, so she just stood in front of the man and called: "Brother Shao Ting."
Huo Shaoting saw her looking like she was going to the kitchen: "Why did you enter the kitchen?"
Qiqi was a little embarrassed: "I have nothing to do, so I will help in the kitchen and wait for you to come back."
Seeing her busy look, Huo Shaoting said, "Qiqi, you can tell me if you feel uncomfortable. Don't feel pressured."
Qiqi didn't, but she nodded and went to the kitchen to get busy again.
Huo Shaoting looked at her busy back and could only look away. He took off his tie and walked upstairs. He subconsciously pushed the door open and entered the room. But as soon as he entered, he saw a white underwear on the bed in the room. There is also a changed skirt.
Huo Shaoting suddenly realized that the second bedroom belonged to Qiqi, and he could only retreat quickly from the door. bijinglou
In fact, he usually lives in the second bedroom, because the second bedroom is closer to the study, so he rests in the second bedroom after work. However, when the servants change, it is difficult to use his master bedroom, so he is given a chance to sleep for a long time. Lying.
He went straight back to the master bedroom.
After the meal started, Huo Shaoting changed his clothes and came down. Qiqi happened to go to the dining table and put a bowl of soup she made specially in front of him: "Brother Shao Ting, this is the soup I made. Try it."
She was a little unsure, put down the bowl, and quickly withdrew her hand.
Huo Shaoting saw that she was wearing an apron, with flour on the tip of her nose, and her hair was slightly loose. This picture made the words Wenxiang Nephrite come to mind.
I don’t know if these inexplicable four words describe a person or something.
However, he looked away from her face, his expression became cold, and he still did not remind her of the flour on the tip of her nose.
