The Romance Of Mr. Walton

Although it was unexpected that she had fallen out with Gao Moran, she felt that it didn't matter anymore.    

    

Since the day she decided to let go, she didn't plan to turn back.    

    

Since she did not turn back, it did not matter if Gao Moran trusted her or not.    

    

The next afternoon, she followed the address Huo Tingshen sent her and made two public transport trips before arriving at the French restaurant.    

    

When Huo Tingshen drove over, she was sitting by the Winter Green Altar at the entrance of the restaurant.    

    

He got out of the car and walked towards her. The waiter drove his car away and went to park.    

    

"Why don't you go in?"    

    

She smiled. "I wanted to mourn for my wallet for a few minutes before going in, but you came over."    

    

"Worry for my wallet?"    

    

She pointed at the door of the restaurant and said mysteriously: "I calculated with my fingers that this restaurant should be a high-end restaurant."    

    

He smiled. "So?"    

    

"Treating a meal in a place like this will make my heart ache."    

    

"Then are you still going to treat me?"    

    

She shrugged. "Money is earned by people after all. Since I owe you a favor, I naturally have to treat you. " That's why I have to mourn for my wallet. Now, let's go. I'll send them to the guillotine. "    

    

She exhaled, turned around, and walked up the stairs to the dining room.    

    

Huo Tingshen looked at her back and couldn't help but smile.    

    

Was he old? Or did he know too few women?    

    

He had never seen a woman as interesting as her.    

    

The two of them entered the restaurant. She only took a glance at the menu and gave him the right to order.    

    

"Come on."    

    

"Are you sure you want me to order? Aren't you afraid that I will order expensive dishes?"    

    

She pouted. "I don't know how to read. If your conscience doesn't hurt, you can order whatever you want. " Anyway, I will just stay here and wash the dishes. It doesn't matter. "    

    

She said it with a brave face.    

    

He smiled and lowered his head to start ordering.    

    

She couldn't understand. This was clearly China, why did the menu need to be written in French?    

    

Bullying her for being uncultured?    

    

Huo Tingshen quickly finished the dishes.    

    

"I ordered champagne. Do you want a cup?"    

    

She shrugged. "Sure."    

    

French food was very slow.    

    

She was not in a hurry. After drinking a mouthful of champagne, she asked, "What did you tell our principal? How could she change her mind so easily?"    

    

"Are you curious?"    

    

"A little." She nodded. "Is it convenient to say?"    

    

"I only said three words. I said that I have taken a fancy to Wen Qing. She exchanged her spot to stay in school. Otherwise, the Huo Family and the Gao family will fall apart."    

    

Her face instantly turned red. No wonder Gao Moran came to look for her yesterday.    

    

What are you blushing for? "    

    

"Oh, because I drank." She raised her glass and took another sip.    

    

"The principal didn't say anything and agreed just like that?"    

    

"She said a lot of bad things about you."    

    

She frowned. "What did she say?"    

    

"Curious again?"    

    

She was a little embarrassed. "Not really."    

    

"How about this? If you promise me something, I'll tell you. What did I talk to her about?"    

    

"I don't want it."    

    

"What? Are you afraid that I'll make you give yourself to me?"    

    

She looked at him. Was this man really the legendary cold and arrogant Third Young Master Huo?    

    

Why did she not meet Third Young Master Huo like this?    

    

Seeing that she was a little nervous, he smiled and said, "It seems that you really thought of it."    

    

"I didn't."    

    

"Don't worry, I won't force you. I said that I will let you marry me willingly and offer yourself to me."    

    

"There won't be such a day."    

    

"Let's not study this issue first. Our company is looking for a temporary lecturer recently. Do you want to work part-time? If you come, I will tell you what she said."    

    

"Hmph." She turned her head and smiled.    

    

"What are you laughing at?"    

    

"Stop playing with me. How can I be a lecturer in a big company like yours? Even if it's just a temporary worker, there should be hundreds of people fighting to be a lecturer."    

    

"I opened the back door for you. This is the first time I've done something for myself. My salary is very high. It's calculated according to the number of days. How is it? Is it tempting?"    

    

She looked at him and said firmly, "You must have other motives."    

    

He calmly shook his wine glass and raised the corner of his lips.    

    

"Talking to smart people is just being open-minded. Come to our company and bring me lunch every day."    

    

"Bring lunch?" She was surprised.    

    

"That's right. You come to work for a month, bring me a month's worth of food, or if you don't come to work, I go to your place every night to freeload for food. Choose one."    

    

Wen Qing was speechless. "Don't you think you are very overbearing like this?"    

    

"I am used to it. If you feel that it is unfair, then I can add another option for you. You can stay at my house. " I'll make food and lodging for you. You cook for me three times a week. "    

    

She stared at him, put down her glass, and crossed her arms.    

    

Huo Tingshen smiled wickedly. "I know. You are afraid that I will pester you, but even if you do not come to our company, I will not give up on you. As for the reason, you should have guessed it. Wen Qing, I like you."    

    

Wen Qing frowned and held her arms tightly.    

    

Is this... a confession?    

    

"But the fact that I asked you to cook for me has nothing to do with me liking you. For 27 years, I have never eaten a normal meal. That day, the food you cooked gave me the feeling of living like an ordinary person. I truly feel that eating a normal meal feels very good.    

    

Can you imagine? From the moment I was born, I had been sitting in front of a large dining table. Every meal was filled with delicacies, and there was a large pile of housekeepers and maids beside me. "However, those dishes are obviously full of color, fragrance, and taste, but they are completely devoid of humanity."    

    

Hearing what he said, Wen Qing's pupils unconsciously shrunk a little.    

    

She looked at him with some heartache and inexplicably had a feeling of sympathy for the same person.    

    

In the past, in order to support her mother, her mother had to work every day.    

    

Therefore, she ate alone every day, bathed alone, and slept alone.    

    

The feeling of being alone. She understood how it felt to be alone.    

    

"Then... when do I start working?"    

    

"It's best to start tomorrow."    

    

She pursed her lips. "Now you can tell me what bad things the principal said about me."    

    

"I know a little about Lin Youle's character. What she said. Actually, it's fine if you don't listen. It's all a lie. "    

    

"How can you be sure it's a lie?"    

    

"She said that your private life is improper. Is there anyone who has more say than me on this?" He raised his eyebrows. "I'm your first man."    

    

She tilted her head to the side in embarrassment. She glanced at him. "Lower your voice, hmph, that's all she said?"    

    

"What can a person like her say? She just wants to emphasize your background to me."    

    

"She said I was an orphan again?"    

    

"What, did she say that before?"    

    

She nodded.    

    

"How could she have such a misunderstanding? Did you not tell Gao Moran about your identity?"    

    

"I can't just say that I'm an illegitimate daughter. "    

    

Huo Tingshen smiled. If he knew that she was a Bai's Member, I'm afraid that Lin Youle's attitude towards Wen Qing will change. That way, Gao Moran would probably not lose Wen Qing.    

    

Thinking about it, it was really a beautiful coincidence.
