elegate tasks to those under you, don't try to do everything yourself."Ho Mingzheng smiled ambiguously, "Thank you for your concern, Grandpa."After dinner, Huo Mingzheng stood in the shelter of a door...That was when Fu Yan was in high school. She went out to play with Ji Lin and her classmates one time. They lost a game and got pranked with embarrassing photos of them dressed up funny.
She only just remembered that this photo album belonged to Ji Lin, and there were quite a few pictures of her inside.
And while Huo Mingzheng held the advantage of having long arms, she couldn't snatch the photo album away from him.
Ho Mingzheng saw her nervous expression and became even more curious about what the photo was.
Just as he was about to look up, Fu Yan, who couldn't break free from her restraints, didn't think of any better way. With a flash of inspiration, she reached out with both hands and covered his eyes, "Are you still looking"
Ho Mingzheng's muscles tensed slightly all over his body.
Her voice was soft and delicate, with a hint of petulant anger. It lacked any intimidation, yet it felt like being scratched by a cat's claws.
The tender touch of a small hand upon his eyelids caused Huo Mingzheng's even breathing to falter.
His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, Ho Mingzheng's voice raspy as he said, "I haven't seen it clearly yet."
"There's nothing to see." Fu Yan covered his eyes with one hand and tried to take the photo album with the other.
However, Huo Mingzheng quickly hid the photo album behind his back. His hand accurately seized Fu Yan's wrist, his fingers gently circling it without hurting her. "So reluctant to let me see"
He didn't open his hand covering Fu Yanmeng's eyes, and as he spoke, his eyelashes gently swept across the tender flesh of her palm.
Fu Yan immediately retracted her hand, letting it hang by her side and clenching her fingers. Her chest rose and fell, unsure if she was angered by Huo Mingzheng's nonchalance or by the slight tingle she felt when their hands brushed just now.
She glared at him irritably, "There's nothing to see here. Aren't you going back"
He Ming withdrew the smile in his eyes, hummed softly, got up, and said, "Let's go, take my car"
"I didn't drink, I drove myself." Fu Yan turned and left.
Ho Mingzheng looked at her back, afraid he would force her to sit in the same car as him, and a smile deepened in his eyes.
He took a step forward with his long legs and stopped, turning back to pick up the photo album again. He opened it to the same page as before, the one Fu Yan had not let him see.
A teenage girl named Fu Yan wore two braids, her lips were painted a thick circle with lipstick, and her eyebrows were drawn dark and thick. She pouted at the camera, seemingly unwilling, but instead of looking awkward, she had a cute and endearing look that was hard to resist.
This photo album was taken out of a drawer by Qi's father, just to tell him that Fu Yan and Qi Lin were childhood sweethearts. The two have been perfect for each other since they were young.
He didn't believe it. Drunk, Father Ji easily fell into his trap and had to find the photo to show him.
There are indeed many photos of Ji Lin and Fu Yan here, as well as some solo photos of Fu Yan. They're all pictures he had never seen before.
" Huo Mingzheng! "
Two steps out the door, Fu Yan suddenly turned back. She looked at the man who had just said he was leaving, but now flipped open an album, a smile on his lips.
Huo Mingzheng immediately closed the photo album and looked at her angry face, his heart softened. "No more."
"You've already seen it, haven't you" Fu Yan truly hated herself for falling for his trick. He was such a cunning businessman, with so many tricks up his sleeve.
The man walked up to her, his gaze lingering on her. "Mr. Ji said that you and Mr. Ji Lin were childhood sweethearts and very well-matched from a young age. I'm curious to see just how well-matched you are."
Fu Yan's heart did an action of rubbing her forehead. She knew Uncle Ji definitely talked nonsense after drinking, luckily she didn't hear it live, otherwise, she didn't know how to face the embarrassment.
Before, Uncle Qi did indeed try to match her with Ji Lin. He was shut down by Ji Lin's words, "Dad, can you and my uncle, my cousin, fall in love"
She and Ji Lin were also impossible. She and Ji Lin didn't have as strong of a gender barrier in each other's eyes, Ji Lin could be seen as male or female in her eyes.
"So, now that you've seen it, do you think we're a match" Fu Yan asked him.
Huo Mingzheng let out a light chuckle from his throat, “Truth or dare”oice, she also came out. She recognized Qin Heng and knew he was a high school classmate of Ji Qing. Back then, Ji Qing had serious subject weaknesses, and Qin Heng even went to her house on weekends...
