in a week, it's no wonder they miss each other.Kisses for a long time,Mingzhu felt this kiss becoming more and more inappropriate. She gently leaned against his shoulder, her face slightly flushed: "...The air in the private room was thick with tension.
That Mr. Xu clearly had a good impression of Anran. Although he didn't speak, he poured her a glass of flower wine.
Mr. Xu knows his son has set his sights on .
He smiled warmly: "It's rare for us to get together like this. Let's just have a casual meal together, no business talk!"
"With that, he leaned in towards the two titans of the Si family, whispering playful banter: “See, young people are always quicker to warm up!”"
Si Wenli smiled slightly.
Si Wenxiong, the head of the Si family, was usually a serious and stoic man. However, at this moment, he even offered a rare smile to those present.
He sipped his tea, quietly observing Anran. He gazed at this daughter he had never raised.
She looks a lot like her mother.
Looking frail and helpless, but after these years of training by Gu Yunfan, she's become a hundred times more capable than before. He was very grateful to Gu Yunfan for that.
Mr. Xu came over again and said enthusiastically, "The sushi here is really good! The salmon is just delivered from the seaside this morning, so fresh!"
Si Wenxiong nodded very theatrically.
No one else had any objections.
Then, Mr. Xu instructed Young Master Xu to show his abilities by taking charge of the meal. Young Master Xu was just about to explain to the waiter when someone stood at the entrance of the private room. Under the spotlight outside the room, his handsome and captivating face was evident. In a bespoke suit, he looked especially distinguished.
It's Huo Yunsi!
Huo Yuns thought glanced over the private room, taking in everyone before his gaze landed on Young Master Xu... Huo Yuns was naturally proud, and in comparison, Young Master Xu seemed a bit flustered.
"Quite a crowd!"
Huo Yunsi walked in, and Yan, his secretary, followed behind him. She just smiled slightly at Anran.
The atmosphere in the private room was intoxicating.
First, Xu felt a little awkward. He was the one who poached people from other companies, but he had already greeted Wen Man. Unexpectedly, Huo Yunsi could directly confront him.
"Xu Zong is an elder after all, so he was being a bit pretentious: 'Yunshi, it's really unfortunate, we're having a family dinner today and it's not very convenient. You see...' "
"A family dinner!"
Huoyuns thought for a moment, then sat opposite Anran with a natural ease. He looked at her face and slowly said: "Since this is a family gathering, how could you not even know Anran's taste preferences! She doesn't like Japanese food, she loves rosemary-roasted lamb the most… Mr. Xu, why don't you ask if there is any authentic lamb here"
He laid a snowy tablecloth before himself, smiling: "To be honest, since I've been with Anran, my palate has become more refined."
Secretary Yan couldn't help but smile behind him.
The other people, their faces kept flushing between white and red.
Anran is meeting with Mr. Xu for investment today. Although the chances are slim, she can't completely disregard the other party's face. She said faintly, "Let's have Japanese food! You have to get used to eating things you don't like."
Having said that, she looked at Huo Yunsi.
He gave her a faint smile and said, to be honest, he was really good-looking. Even though Anran had decided to break up with him, she couldn't escape the beauty attack.
She shifted her gaze slightly.
Ho Yunsi turned to Sima Wenli and asked, "How did the two uncles end up attending Mr. Xu's...family dinner Could it be that Sister Anran (Sima Anran) has gotten close with Young Master Xu, and they are about to start a new relationship"
Si Wenli was just drinking tea when he almost spit it out.
Si Wenxiong was a little irritated.
The Si family and the Huo family have had several run-ins in the past. A few years ago, Lu Shuo almost ruined the Si family... Later, the relationship improved slightly, but then something happened with An Ran. The Si family tried to get closer, but the Huo family didn't give them any face at all.
Si Wenxiong said in a deep voice, "Of course not!"
Huo Yunsi nodded in agreement: "That's good! Actually, I also feel that Anran and this Mr. Xu are not very well-matched. If they were forced together, it wouldn't be suitable."
He was being double-meaning.
Si Wenxiong's eyes sparkled with electricity as he surveyed the younger generation of leaders from the Huo family.
Ho Yunsi smiled faintly.
Si Wenxiong narrowed his eyes. He understood that Huo Yunsi appearing here to vie for attention was to be expected, after all, he was young and headstrong. However, he hadn't expected Huo Yunsi to stand up for An Ran.
Thus, he wanted to recognize his daughter...
At this time, the waiter brought over the sushi. Xu Gongzi closed the door and sat down, wanting to secure a peaceful moment. He was considerate and prepared the condiments for An Ran, while Huo Yunsi didn't object.
"I'll manage on my own!"
She still couldn't stomach it, eating very little. However, Huo Yuns thought was not polite at all and ate up her share... Anran looked at him, feeling a bit embarrassed. Were they this close now
Although he doesn't like Japanese food.
Xu Gongzi's eyes dimmed, but his father gave him an encouraging look: A brave woman fears no entanglement with a man!
With Huo Yunsi joining, the meal was hastily finished.
Logically speaking, Xu Zong should have let go of such thoughts regarding An Ran.
As soon as they got in the car, the secretary covered her face and said, “We need to find new investors! This Mr. Xu is too extravagant. He even sent someone along with an investment!”
Anran sat quietly.
After a long pause, she whispered, "I've assessed it, Mr. Xu is still the most suitable candidate. We can't give up on this lead."
The secretary wasn't very convinced.
An Ran said lightly: “He must see the potential in this project. Mr. Xu can achieve a net worth of billions, he wouldn't be lacking any skills! He wouldn't give up for personal reasons, for money… he’ll have to keep going.”
The secretary said with admiration: "Mr. An, you've made such a great sacrifice!"
An Ran smiled faintly.
As the car was about to drive away, Si Wenli hurried over. He even disregarded etiquette and opened the car door, saying to Anran, “Have a cup of tea! There are no outsiders.”
Anran looked up at him, the secretary too afraid to speak.
After a moment, Anran said lightly, "Good!"
She didn't want to get involved with the Si family, but they seemed unwilling to give up. Now it was clear they were teaming up with Mr. Xu. There were some things she needed to make clear.
Get out of the car safely and follow Si Wenli.
Walking into the lobby, I ran into Huo Yunsi again. He seemed a bit unwell after having some drinks, resting on the sofa in the hall. Hearing footsteps, he probably sensed it was Anran, and he opened his eyes.
Si Wenli has always been someone who stands by this person.
He, an elder, was very humble and lowered his head: "Yunshi, I'll take Anran to have a cup of tea. It won't take long."
Anran: ...
< Huo Yunsi simply smiled lightly: "Alright!" >
Si Wenli turned around and said to Anran, "Let's go!"
Turning several corners, we arrived at a box that was noticeably more upscale, decorated in extreme luxury... Si Wenxiong sat upright and was drinking tea.
Si Wenli led people in, bowing low and saying, "Big brother, Anran is here!"
Si Wenxiong looked up.
At this moment, his gaze was not as restrained as it had been before the crowd. Instead, it held a hint of regret and nostalgia as he looked at Anran, as if he were seeing someone else through her face.
An Ran calmly and openly allowed him to look at her.
After a long silence, Si Wenxiong said in a hoarse voice, "You look so much like your mother! ...Have a seat!"
Sat calmly opposite him.
Si Wenxiong didn't say anything else, just reminisced about the past. He talked about how amazed he was when he first met An Ran's mother. "The first time I saw her, she was like a soft little animal, just crashing into my world! If I could, I would cherish her."ith the manager Was she interested in himAlthough ashamed, every man yearns for success.He knew the worth of the Huo family, enough to live a life without ever having to struggle.Besides, you don't ha...
