"Nanzhi, are you in there?"
Huo Sijue followed him to the women's restroom. He lingered outside for a long time and finally asked a receptionist to go in and check.
"There...is no one inside." The woman seemed to be scared and her voice was timid.
Huo Sijue didn't believe it at all. He couldn't find anyone when he went in, so he finally focused on the men's bathroom. He strode in without saying a word.
The moment he broke in, Nanzhi huddled inside and didn't dare to come out.
Somehow she just didn't want to be caught by Huo Sijue.
The more Huo Sijue wanted to explain, the less she wanted to hear it. It seemed that all the boredom towards Gu Mingxi was concentrated on Huo Sijue at this moment.
Huo Sijue walked to the locked door in the innermost room and was about to knock on the door when Tan Xici opened the door with one hand, revealing a crack. The slender red phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and he smiled and said, "Mr. Huo, do you still have this hobby?"
"Why is it you?" Huo Sijue tried hard to open the door, but Tan Xici wouldn't let him.
He hugged the door tightly, as if looking at a madman, "You want to watch me go to the toilet?"
Tan Xi looked at Huo Sijue up and down with disgust on his face, "I'm a serious actor and I don't accept unspoken rules!"
"What nonsense!" Huo Sijue couldn't bear it anymore and shouted angrily.
He reluctantly wanted to push the door open, but thought that the picture might be dirty and took a step back.
Huo Sijue took a deep breath and asked, "Did anyone come in just now?"
"As you can see, I'm the only one here." Tan Xici waved his hand and slammed the door shut impatiently, "I don't like being stared at, so I can't come out."
"Please help yourself!"
Huo Sijue frowned. He looked at the door for a long time before finally leaving...
Nanzhi stood at the end of the cubicle. When she wanted to come out, Tan Xici pulled her back, "He hasn't gone far yet. If you go out now, he will definitely catch him again."
"Why, you caught him cheating, and you don't want to see him so much?"
In the dim cubicle, Tan Xici smiled charmingly. He stared at Nanzhi's red eyes for a moment and felt distressed. Then he suddenly asked seriously, "I heard that you are divorced?"
"Now that you're divorced, don't think of remarrying again. There's nothing but endless trouble waiting for you at the Huo family's stall, and -"
Tan Xici didn't want to say it, but when he saw Nanzhi crying, he felt pity. "Huo Simian is definitely not a kind person. It won't do you any harm to keep your distance from him."
"From what you said, it seems like you know the Huo family very well?"
Nanzhi has also had contact with Huo Simian. He is a pure young man. If he is not a good person, then who else in the Huo family can be trusted?
"Whether you want to remarry or not is my business, I don't need you to worry about it."
Nanzhi walked around him, pushed open a door, and walked out cautiously.
"Hey, are you leaving now? I helped you just now, but why do you turn your back on me so quickly?"
"Do you know how many little girls are out there waiting to treat me to dinner?"
Tan Xici was talking about immortality, so he deliberately teased Nanzhi, chased after her, and trotted behind her.
This is the office area of an entertainment company, and no one except the staff can enter at will. In order to avoid Huo Sijue, Nanzhi deliberately took the safe passage instead of the elevator.
"You don't want to see him that much?"
Tan Xici followed until Nanzhi reached the eighth floor, when she finally stopped to take a breath.
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Nanzhi said impatiently, her face rosy, "Thank you for helping me just now, but!"
"Stop following me."
After saying that, she continued walking forward without looking back.
When she finally arrived on the first floor, Nanzhi was already panting from exhaustion. She was about to take a taxi when she saw Gu Mingxi coming downstairs and getting into a sports car on the side of the road.
She was obviously Huo Sijue's wife, but she ended up looking like a mistress.
Nanzhi became even more angry and was about to leave. A pair of hands suddenly grabbed her from behind.
Huo Sijue wore gold-rimmed glasses and his eyes were red. He held Nanzhi's hand tightly and refused to let go. It seemed that he could still hear his heartbeat as his chest rose and fell.
"I've been looking for you for a long time. If I hadn't met you here, wouldn't I have planned to go home tonight?"
Nanzhi said angrily, "What, are you sending my sister downstairs?"
Huo Sijue was speechless by her words. Originally, today, he wanted to coax Nanzhi to come out and find an opportunity for the two of them to settle the matter of remarriage.
Now it seems that it was all his wishful thinking.
"Huo Sijue, I'm not that stupid. I was fooled by you once or twice."
"No matter what your relationship is with Gu Mingxi, I don't care. If you want me to stay in the capital, that's fine, but I won't leave."
"But don't even think about remarriage, it's out of the question!"
The words Nanzhi said were clear, just short of severing the relationship between the two.
"Where are you going?"
Seeing that Nanzhi was about to leave, Huo Sijue quickly pulled her from behind. He almost begged, "Come home with me."
"I won't reply!"
Nanzhi raised her tone and asked, "Would it be interesting for me to go back to that home? If you like her so much, you can marry her back. What do you want me to do?"
She took all her anger out on Huo Sijue. Lu Cheng, who was not far away, was so frightened that it was neither right nor wrong to persuade him. Huo Sijue used to lecture others, but this was the first time he saw Mr. Huo being scolded by a woman.
"Forget it, I'll go home and you can play in the mud by yourself!" Nanzhi was so angry.
After Lin Ya came back, she moved back to the residential complex that Huo Sijue had transferred to Nazhi. In name, that was Nazhi's home.
She shook off Huo Sijue's hand and stopped a car herself without getting angry.
After they left, Lu Chengcai cautiously stepped forward to please him, "Mr. Huo, I didn't know Miss Gu was in there either. You..."
"roll."
Um?
Lu Cheng blinked until he met Huo Sijue's murderous gaze. He was about to cry without tears and stood in the distance with a disgraced look.
Gu Mingxi is really a broom star. Originally, there was hope for getting back together today, but now it seems that it is not working out again.
…
After Nazhi returned home, she looked ugly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked in, Lin Ya would drag her back to Nan's house and ask her to call Huo Sijue, saying that grandma was here.
Hearing this unfamiliar title, Nanzhi was slightly stunned.
Ever since she could remember, she had rarely seen her great-grandma. She didn't like Bai Fen, so she rarely came to Nan's house. This time, it was specified that they all should be present.
"Is it okay if Huo Sijue doesn't go?"
Nanzhi looked embarrassed. She had just acted like she wanted to break up with him, but she asked him to accompany her back to Nan's house so quickly?
"No, he has to go this time." Lin Ya said firmly, "Not only Huo Sijue, but also Huo Sheimian will go home for dinner tonight."
Nanzhi gradually felt that something was unusual, "Why did Grandma suddenly call us home?"
Lin Ya hesitated to speak, and finally lowered her voice and said, "It's because of the inheritance."
"You don't look down on Bai Fen, so you skipped Nancheng to divide the property between you and Nan Xi. I guess, maybe -"
"Maybe you'll take the lion's share."
At that time, my great-grandmother had no choice but to return to her hometown because of Bai Fen's entrance. She had no contact with Buxiao Zi Nancheng for so many years.
And Nan Xi is Bai Fen's daughter, so in comparison, even if Nanzhi is not the legitimate Miss of the Nan family, she might still get most of the Nan family's property because of Huo Sijue.
The old lady came with a lawyer.
At this moment, the Nan family was already in a state of turmoil.
Bai Fen's body was shaking slightly with anger, "What does your mother mean? How can anyone make a will and skip their own son directly?"
"After so many years, she still refuses to accept me. Nancheng, don't forget that our Bai family also helped your Nan family's career back then."
"For you, I have tolerated that woman Lin Ya for so many years..."
The more Bai Fen talked, the angrier she became. Nancheng could only lick his old face and coax, "Honey, you're right. My mother is an old fool. Don't be angry first. Isn't there Xiao Xi here?"
"It's the same thing if she left money to Xiao Xi!"
"Oh, what do you think your mother means by going to all the trouble to ask everyone to come back? If she really wants to leave Xiaoxi to her, wouldn't she just make a will?"
Bai Fen became angrier as she talked, her face turned red, and her eyes gradually became colder, "Burning bridges over the river, now you want to worry about the inheritance, no way!"
Nancheng was caught in the middle, in a dilemma. He pulled a straight face and coaxed in a low voice, "I'll have a good talk with mom in the evening."
"After all, Nanzhi married well, no matter how we divide it, we, Xiao Xi, will still have the lion's share. Besides, I still have shares in the Nan family. If mom goes too far, I will give them all to Xiao Xi, okay? ?”
Hearing this, Bai Fen's face looked better.
She fiddled with her beautiful nails and softened her voice slightly, "Hubby, mom is confused, you must support our mother and daughter."
"Isn't it worth all the sacrifices I've made for you over the years to give our biological daughter a better future?"
