The group pet ancestor of the paranoid boss

10. Don’t use her as a metaphor

Lin Bai, who was always standing aside, looked at his boss's face.

secretly figured out.

Making a gesture of invitation, Lin Bai respectfully bowed to Ruan Fuyin, "Miss Ruan, please leave first."

The coldness on Ruan Fuyin's face was even worse, it was unclear whether it was resentment, or anger generated from resentment.

She clenched deep marks on the hand hanging by her side, and she firmly restrained herself after she calmed down.

There was a few seconds of silence.

Ruan Fuyin looked at Huo Tingmo's clear and handsome face, remembered the news she had received not long ago, and suddenly smiled:

"Ting Mo, I heard that someone has prepared a fireworks show tonight for birthday celebrations, which will fill the night sky of Yuncheng."

"Up to—27 minutes."

"You said, will it be more grand than the fireworks you have prepared?"

"I'm looking forward to it."

The moment Ruan Fuyin's voice fell.

Lu Tingjiu was startled suddenly.

She raised her eyes to look at Ruan Fuyin, just in time to meet her provocative eyes.

Lu Tingjiu's fingers hanging by his side slowly curled up, and his thin lips moved slightly.

But until Ruan Fuyin left, she couldn't say a single word.

……

After Ruan Fuyin left.

There were only the two of them left in the office.

Huo Tingmo's eyes stayed on her face all the time, seeing Lu Tingjiu's subconscious reaction, what else did he not understand?

When Huo Tingmo was about to leave, someone grabbed the corner of his clothes suddenly.

"I can explain," Lu Tingjiu's eyes fell on the corner of the black clothes she held in her palm, "I can explain."

She didn't even dare to look up to see the expression on Huo Tingmo's face, "I, I..."

but--

How would she explain it?

Lu Tingjiu was stunned for a moment.

In her previous life, she was sure that Huo Tingmo would agree to divorce because of her injury.

The fireworks show was also prepared by her in advance.

She regards the end of her relationship with Huo Tingmo as the beginning of her relationship with Shen Zhou.

And today is also Shen Zhou's birthday.

Originally, she planned to ask Shen Zhou to marry her today.

Every second that Lu Tingjiu couldn't explain, Huo Tingmo's heart sank.

After a few minutes of dead silence.

The gleam in Huo Tingmo's eyes dissipated little by little, leaving only darkness and silence.

What is he still looking forward to?

Huo Tingmo's indifferent eyebrows and eyes couldn't hide the mockery, he shouldn't try to believe her again and again.

Believe it if you want.

Seeing Huo Tingmo reaching out to grab her wrist and about to take it away, Lu Tingjiu's eyes panicked.

"I won't set off fireworks, Huo Tingmo..."

Lu Tingjiu unconsciously clenched the corner of his clothes, "I won't let it go, I will let someone cancel it."

"I won't go to his birthday party either."

"Believe me," Lu Tingjiu raised his face to look at him, his soft voice was soft and low, "OK..."

"Wine wine."

Huo Tingmo looks down at her.

Her eyes were locked on her face so dark and so quiet that there was no wave, and her deep voice could not detect any emotion, "What exactly do you want?"

"Did it break your brain, or did he teach you a new trick to make me compromise by retreating?"

"You're so impatient," Huo Tingmo pinched her chin with his slender and clean fingers, "you can't wait for a year?"

"Didn't I say it, I won't mention divorce during this period, and naturally I don't want anyone to destroy this relationship."

Huo Tingmo's face changed slightly, and an invisible trace of ridicule flashed across his dark eyes, "It seems that you have been in the entertainment circle for the past two years, and it's not that you have no acting skills at all."

Lu Tingjiu pursed his lips, but Huo Tingmo no longer gave her a chance to speak.

"Lin Bai!" Huo Tingmo snapped.

"Mr. Huo."

next second.

Lin Bai appeared at the door.

"Take your wife back to Xinghu Bay to rest." Huo Tingmo's voice was cold, he stared at Lu Tingjiu's eyes, "Order, fireworks are prohibited in the whole city tonight."

……

Lu Tingjiu walked for less than 10 minutes.

Rong Qijin came up.

Huo Tingmo sits on the sofa next to the desk.

Not knowing what he was thinking, his handsome face was covered with a layer of indifference.

Huge office.

Only him.

A cigarette was held between his left fingers, as if he hadn't smoked it, but it was still burning quietly.

"Ting Mo, where are you?"

Huo Tingmo flicked the cigarette ash, and glanced at him lightly, "who is it?"

"You didn't send the message to ask me to come over..."

Rong Qijin's expression suddenly changed in the middle of speaking——

"Where's the injury?"

Rong Qijin, who has always had a gentle tone, suddenly turned cold, "Who hurt it?"

"What did Lin Nan do? Didn't he stay by your side all the time, does he still want to be a bodyguard?"

"Show me where you hurt?"

Huo Tingmo raised his chin and gestured towards his arm, "left hand."

"It's a little numb, and I feel like I can't use force."

The calm tone, as if he was not the one who was hurt.

"Use... can't you use your strength?"

A look of fear suddenly appeared on Rong Qijin's face.

Who is Huo Tingmo?

Once shot in both hands, he was still able to pick up a gun and kill the dozen or so people who besieged him.

With a sullen face, Rong Qijin asked him to untie his clothes, and even had a tendency to do it himself.

Huo Tingmo threw away the cigarette, reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"what are you doing?"

"Don't let me see what you asked me to do? See your face?"

Turning the corner and scolding him.

"It's stuck to the clothes, you cut it off."

Container Jin did so without the slightest hesitation.

A wound more than ten centimeters long slanted across the entire arm.

It's almost bone-deep, shocking.

A piece of gauze was casually tied on it, and even the simplest disinfection work was not done.

The area around the arm was soaked in blood, and a small piece of gauze was connected to the wound, and the bones were faintly visible.

According to the degree of wound infection, it must have been injured not long ago.

Rong Qijin's hands trembled uncontrollably, and she didn't say another word.

Debridement, sutures, and final bandaging were done without saying a word throughout the whole process.

"Go to the hospital."

half rate.

Rong Qijin just said three words heavily, without raising her head.

Organize your medicine cabinet.

There was a moment of silence.

"Qi Jin."

Huo Tingmo called his name.

Rong Qijin didn't answer him.

Still mad at the wound on his hand.

"Her elder brother came today with that agreement."

Rong Qijin's expression changed, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or something, "Did she sign?"

"No." Huo Tingmo's slow voice was extraordinarily quiet and deep, "She didn't sign."

He didn't look at Rong Qijin, but just stared at the ring on his finger.

"She seems to be accepting me, I want to wait."

……

2 minute later.

The office door was slammed shut with a bang.

Until the echo in the room dissipated.

Huo Tingmo lowered his eyes and smiled lowly.

Growing up together, he didn't even know that Qi Jin would slam doors.

Gentle as jade, a gentleman of modesty.

It has always been his representative word.

Less than 1 minutes.

The office door was suddenly pushed open again.

Rong Qijin stood at the door.

He returned to his usual gentle look, but his eyes were a little heavy when he looked at him.

"Follow me to the hospital."

"Don't go."

"It's just a small injury." Huo Tingmo added.

"Small injury?" Rong Qijin's expression darkened instantly, "I think you probably have no idea about your injury."

"If the person who was injured today was Lu Tingjiu, you can kill the person who injured her."

Rong Qijin's voice fell.

Huo Tingmo, who had been drooping since he came in, raised his head and stared at him with deep eyes.

"Don't use her as a metaphor."

Instead, Rong Qijin laughed, with an extremely rare sense of irony, "Just as an analogy, does your heart feel bad?"

"Why didn't you hesitate when you slashed that knife towards your arm?"

Huo Tingmo didn't answer for a while.

"Okay." A quiet and cold voice escaped from Rong Qijin's mouth, "If Lu Tingjiu knows—her elder brother counts all the injuries she has suffered since entering Xinghu Bay—on your head."

"Tell me, does Lu Tingjiu want to be with you a little bit because of guilt?"

"Qi Jin."

Huo Tingmo said two words gently and quietly, wrapped in a light chill in the empty space.

It's meant to be a slight warning.

"Since you can't win her heart, you must find a way to make her remember you."

Huo Ting frowned slightly, and said softly, "You can't."

"Go to the hospital." Rong Qijin still had these three words.

"I have my measure."

"If her injury has been bad, have you never planned to go to the hospital?"
