Gu Lanqing looked at the bitterness in Huo Zichen's eyes, and felt as if a large piece of cotton was stuck in his throat.

"It looks like you won't change your mind because of me. I really don't know where in the world I lost to him. " A hint of dissatisfaction appeared in Huo Zichao's heart.

"Zichen, you're great. You are the heir to the Huo family, the son of heaven. As for me, I am just a lonely daughter who has lost both her parents. I am unable to help you in any way. " This was something Aunt Huo had personally told her.

Thus, when she returned to the Huo family to take care of Zichen, she reminded herself of this every now and then.

Only then would she have to work continuously, do a part-time job, and pay back the tuition and living expenses that the Huo family had paid for her.

Huo Zichen clenched his teeth, then looked at Gu Lan Qing with a guilty expression and said, "I am also very grateful to you for risking your life to save me all those years ago." You can do anything you want me to, but emotions cannot be used as a way for me to repay you. "

"I can't bear to use my emotions to force you. Didn't I say that? We'll still be friends in the future. " Huo Zichen smiled, then walked into Gu Lan Qing's office, brought her a box, and gave it to her.

"This is a mobile phone. "I know, your personal phone broke."

"This …" Gu Lanqing watched as Huo Zichao opened the box. The phone inside was the model of a phone that was newly released.

"I'm your friend. I'm just giving you a phone. Don't you want to take it? " Huo Zichen said bitterly.

"Thank you." Gu Lanqing felt that she had overreacted, so she kept her phone.

"This is the latest business phone. Some of these functions are very powerful. " Huo Zichen stood up and sat beside Gu Lan Qing.

At the same time, Gu Lanqing also took out the notice that Liang Wenxiu had told her to show to Huo Zichen.

When Huo Yan entered the office, he saw exactly this scene.

Gu Lan Qing and Huo Zi Chen almost leaned their heads together. Gu Lan Qing turned her head to the side and looked at Huo Zi Chen. Her smile was so sweet and relaxed.

He subconsciously clenched his fists.

Gu Lanqing only felt a cold and sharp aura approaching.

The temperature in the air conditioner seemed to drop in an instant.

Instinctively, she raised her eyes and saw Huo Yan's expressionless face.

Her heart couldn't help but thump.

"Huo Yan, when did you arrive?" He hurriedly stood up. Because his movements were too hurried, he forgot about his shoes that were seven inches tall. He lost his balance and fell forward.

A slender arm wrapped around her waist in time. Huo Zichen hugged Gu Lanqing and said worriedly, "Be careful!"

Huo Yan's gaze fell on the arm that Huo Zichen was holding Gu Lan Qing in.

However, Huo Zichao seemed to forget about it. He helped Gu Lanqing to stand up straight and sighed as he taught her a lesson, "Qingqing, you were clearly practicing dancing when you were young, but you couldn't put on your high heels at all. "Even now, I still remember the first time you wore high heels. You were so scared, and if I didn't hold you, you wouldn't even dare to walk."

"It's all over." Gu Lanqing replied perfunctorily, focusing all her attention on Huo Yan.

Ye Zichen looked at his deep eyes. He clearly still didn't seem to have any expression, but she just felt that he wasn't happy.

"To you, it's the past. Not to me. " Huo Zichen sighed.

When Huo Yan walked up to his, Gu Lan Qing's eyes couldn't help but widen. He subconsciously backed away, but there was a sofa behind his legs.

Her calves hit the sofa, and she lost her balance again, falling forward again. "Ah!"

"Be careful!" Huo Zichen spoke up once again and stretched out his arm, attempting to support Gu Lanqing's waist.

However, a large hand was one step ahead of him. It grabbed Gu Lanqing's arm and pulled.

Gu Lanqing immediately fell into Huo Yan's arms.

Her small nose immediately bumped into the man's chest. She was in so much pain that tears welled up in her eyes. She resentfully raised her teary eyes and gritted her teeth, "You're angry again." When you get angry, you change your ways to make me feel bad. "

Huo Zi Chen froze. He looked at Gu Lan Qing's lively and lovable face. She looked like a little girl, how could she possibly be calm? Knowledge?

"I'm not angry. What makes you think that? " Huo Yan raised his eyebrows.

She rubbed Gu Lan Qing's nose lightly. Her nose was raised, but it wasn't red or swollen. Looking at her wandering eyes, how could he not guess that this woman was feeling guilty?

Deliberately causing his heart to ache? So he wouldn't pursue the matter with her later?

A guilty conscience?

What did she do?

Huo Yan's eyes couldn't help but fall onto the pink colored phone on the sofa.

Huo Zichen bent down, picked up his phone, and handed it to Gu Lanqing. "Qingqing, if there's anything you don't understand about your phone, remember to ask me."

Although Huo Yan didn't say it clearly, he could tell that Huo Zichao was hinting that the phone was a gift from him.

Gu Lanqing felt her hairs standing on end.

Sweat poured down like rain.

As he looked at the phone that Huo Zichen handed over, he felt like he didn't want to accept it, nor did he want to refuse it.

"Qingqing?" Huo Zichen asked again when he saw that Gu Lanqing did not answer her phone.

Forget it.

Since it was just a phone, she couldn't reject it. At most, she would just return it with a gift of similar value.

Gu Lanqing gritted her teeth and was about to take the phone, which was no different from a hot potato, when a big hand took it from her.

Gu Lanqing's eyes widened at once.

She watched Huo Yan fiddle with the phone in fear that in the next second, Huo Yan would take the phone and smash Huo Chen's face with it. Even if Huo Yan didn't make things clear, she knew that Huo Yan disliked Zi Chen, but he also didn't like her being in contact with him!

"Your phone isn't bad." Huo Yan raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Yes, I carefully selected it for Qing Qing." "She also likes the color." Huo Zichen replied calmly.

"I thank you in place of Qing Qing. The sports car you're driving is up to date. I'll have someone deliver it to you in the afternoon. " Huo Yan said calmly.

Huo Zichao pursed his lips, then spoke up, "No need! "This is my phone, which I gave to you as a gift. I don't need you to express my gratitude!"

"Qing Qing is my wife. As her husband, how can I not express my gratitude to the friend that gave her this gift?" Huo Yan smiled, then looked at Huo Zichao's pale face.

Following that, he punched in his phone number in in front of Huo Zichen.

Placing it on the table, the comment was precisely the word 'husband'.

Looking at those two words, Gu Lan Qing's small face suddenly blushed — — Husband …

How could Huo Yan say that he was her husband?

That's not right!

She had already married him, and although there was no official wedding, he was indeed her husband.

Seeing the bashful look on Gu Lanqing's face, Huo Zichen felt as if his heart had been stabbed by countless knives.

She felt so much heartache that she couldn't control herself. She turned around and left Gu Lanqing's office without saying a word.

Just as he sat in the driver's seat, a person sat in the first passenger seat.

"His face is so pale. I saw Huo Yan go to Gu Lan Qing's office. What? Huo Yan chased you away?
