Chapter 635 Huo Yunsi: I've Always Been Clear About Pub
wiggle around in his floral dress, looking up at his dad with big, adorable eyes.Xia Zhangrui said calmly, “She wants to learn to walk.”Zhang Chongguang's body stiffened.He was only nine months old, t...Only Lin Xi was happy during the meal.
An Ran ate silently, without rushing anyone away, but she wasn't particularly warm either.
Si Wenli was not without discernment. After finishing a meal, he took his leave, giving Lin Xi a kiss on the cheek as he departed. Lin Xi obediently let him, her eyes sparkling like countless little stars.
Si Wenli looked at it for a long time.
Lin Xi's temperament followed An Ran, but his facial features inherited from the Huo family. He found a familiar trace on Lin Xi's face, that of the love he had been unable to obtain in his youth.
Perhaps it's this kind of psychology that makes Si Wenli love Lin Xi more.
"See you next time."
After Si Wenli finished speaking, he took his coat and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, An Ran followed him up: "I'll see you off!"
It was an unexpected, yet expected, surprise.
After going downstairs, Anran gently pulled her coat closer.
Si Wenli's car was right below, the driver standing by the car about to open the door for someone. Si Wenli made a gesture to have him get in and wait, then turned to Anran and said, "Lin Xi is very cute."
He hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Anran, I won't beat around the bush! The family situation has improved over the past few years, but there hasn't been a proper heir. I know you and Yunshi have some strained relations... Yunshi is always going to get married, so what will happen to Linxi then"
An Ran's face was serene, paler than moonlight.
Si Wenli said lightly, "I know you hate Big Brother and don't like the Si family, but you have the blood of the Si family in your veins... Lin Xi does too! For Lin Xi's future, I hope you will think about it carefully."
"Never mind!"
An Ran refused bluntly, her body trembling slightly in the biting cold of spring. "Mr. Si, I am very grateful for your care three years ago. I know it wasn't your obligation! But for me, my answer is the same now as it was three years ago. My surname is An, not Si. Besides... those difficult days are long gone, why would we bring ourselves such misery again"
Si Wenli blurted out, "Don't you want to fight back in front of the Huo family"
An Ran smiled serenely: "I grew up this way, wanting only to live for myself and not in the shadow of others. Mr. Si, please don't come again."
She made her point clear, nodded slightly and left.
The corridor was dimly lit, obscuring most of her body, making her appear slender yet possessing an undeniable resilience.
Si Wenli looked at it for a long while.
At this time, the car door opened, and a slightly older man walked out. Si Wenli called out, "Big Brother."
Si Wenxiong sighed, looking up at the sky: “She still refuses to forgive me! It seems she has no feelings for me whatsoever.”
Si Wenli took out his cigarette case and shook out two cigarettes.
After a moment, lighting a cigarette and puffing out smoke rings, Si Wenli smiled serenely: "Anran has never even met you! At most, you just provided the materials for her creation. She had a terrible childhood, how could she possibly feel affection for you Besides, she's doing quite well now."
Si Wenxiong narrowed his eyes slightly: "I won't give up!"
No one in the Si family is reliable anymore. His daughter, Si Anran, was once extremely outstanding, but ever since she fell into Lu Shuo's hands, she was completely ruined. After marriage, she has only gotten worse year by year.
……
Upstairs.
As soon as An Ran returned home, Aunt Lin came up to him. She asked, holding Lin Xi on her back: "Did you have a conflict with Mr. Si"
An Ran lowered her head to change her shoes: "It's not a holiday! But it's best... don't keep in touch."
Auntie Lin nodded.
She couldn't help but say, "At this age, she looks really good, with grace and elegance. She seems to care deeply for Linxi."
Anran said softly, "I probably won't come next time."
She was busy with work, but she still took care of Lin Xi, accompanying him to play until nine o'clock and taking care of him until he fell asleep. Only then did she get up to look at the files. Aunt Lin brought over a late-night snack and said with concern: "You can look at it tomorrow. Your eyes are going to be worn out."
An Ran took the bowl and ate a mouthful, saying: "With such a high salary, I should naturally worry and work for Mr. Gu! It will be better after this period."
She had a plan in mind, to turn the tide at Gu's within half a year and achieve profitability within a year.
No overtime, no way!
Auntie Lin felt both heartache and relief: “If your older brother had half your ambition, I wouldn't have to worry about anything for the rest of my life.”
"An Ran smiled serenely: 'Brother is doing very well now! Shu Fen told me that he bought her a whole set of jewelry for the New Year.'"
The son-in-law is doing well, and Lin's aunt smiled with delight.
"Okay, you're busy, but don't stay up too late."
Anran nodded and watched her leave.
The stage lights were dim, Anran resting her chin on her hand, poring over piles of documents… She didn't realize it was already past midnight.
She was just about to go to sleep when she received a WeChat message on her phone.
How is Lin Xi
An Ran looked for a moment, and replied 【I'm feeling pretty good today, should be fine. 】
One minute later, Huo Yunsi had not returned.
After putting down her phone, Anran went to take a shower. When she came back, there was a new WeChat message: 【I can help you with the Gu Shi financing.】
How could An Ran possibly allow him to help
If it weren't for Huo Yunsi, the Gu branch wouldn't be in such a sorry state.
She didn't want to offend him in the end, after much deliberation, she only replied with two words: [Thank you!]
On that side, Huo Yunsi pondered over the two words for a long time, unable to figure out An Ran's meaning. Was this an agreement or a refusal
The door was pushed open, and Huo Shaoting walked in.
He glanced at his son, sat down opposite him on the sofa, and said with a slight sneer: "So late and you're not sleeping yet, Young Master! Is it true that those without wives tend to have insomnia"
Huo Yunsi leaned against the sofa, browsing his phone casually: "Dad, you have a wife, don't you sleep"
Ho Shaoting let out a chuckle. "I'm so happy I can't sleep! Your mom has been incredibly kind to me, learn from her, little one!"
Ho Yunsi looked up and glanced at him.
"As your father, I must say something. Heard you went golfing with a female celebrity today You know, my love story with your mother started on a golf course too, but... our Huo family doesn't accept female celebrities who release press releases."
Huo Yuns thought carelessly: "It's the deputy general manager who invited the spokesperson. The contract hasn't been finalized yet. You don't like it directly refused."
After he finished speaking, Huo Shaoting let out a cold snort.
Ho Shao-ting was quite impressed with his son's words: "It's clear that you don't like people, and you don't want to offend the company's shareholders. Now you're using my name to get by! You little rascal, others might not know your thoughts, but as your father, I see right through you."
Ho Yunsi, though her thoughts were exposed, wasn't bothered.
Ho Shaoting then got down to business: "By the way, you didn't tell me or your mom that Lin Xi was sick! You're responsible for telling Anran, or bring Lin Xi over to stay for a couple of days, or my wife and I can go stay at Anran's place for a few days! Auntie Lin looks capable, but it's hard to take care of a child alone."
He spoke with conviction.
Ho Yunsi looked up: "An Ran can't live there."
Ho Shaoting widened his eyes: "Then let's get a bigger house for the two of them! Huo Yunsi...Lin Xi is our Huo family's grandson. Do you think it's alright to have him squeezed in a small house Look, your one bedroom is bigger than Anran's apartment. You gave birth to a big son and you don't treat him well, did your conscience get eaten by a dog!"ook care of it for him.But she didn't wait for Ye Bai any longer. She began a new life, socializing and attending banquets...making new friends. She even attended Xu Zhanrou's wedding.At the wedding,...
