I can't be a cannon fodder

Chapter 14 It's Not Me Anyway

He Danqing didn't come to the company for several days, and several people in the design department suddenly realized that the opportunity had come.If He Danqing doesn't come back to participate in the Valentine's Day perfume competition, then they all have a chance to win.

So everyone started to study hard, and the atmosphere became tense.

The same goes for Xiao Xingxing, no matter whether she has the chance to participate in the competition or not, she is very serious about making perfume.Of course, I was still thinking about the thing that I said before that I would return Huo Zhourong's favor. On Friday, I called Huo Zhourong and asked him to have dinner tonight.

"Miss Xiao, I'm Assistant Qin." As soon as she got off work, she saw Assistant Qin waiting for her.

"Mr. Huo asked me to pick you up." Assistant Qin opened the car door, "Do you mind changing to another place for dinner?"

What right does she have to mind...

The car stopped at the gate of a courtyard house, Xiao Xingxing followed Assistant Qin in, and found that there was a cave inside, with rockery and flowing water, and was well-decorated, and turned left and right into a box, where Huo Zhourong was sitting.

"This private kitchen tastes good, order what you like." Huo Zhourong handed her the menu.

Xiao Xingxing found out that there was no price behind the dishes, and she was not sure. She planned to treat her today.

"Order whatever you want, I invite you." Huo Zhourong took a sip of the tea ceremony like a roundworm in a person's stomach, "How about I order and serve all the most expensive ones."

"I'll order!" Xiao Xingxing hurriedly ordered on the tablet, ordering what she likes without being polite at all.

While waiting for the dishes, Xiao Xingxing organized his words and began to thank him.

"Mr. Huo, you sent me the photo, right? Thank you." She said sincerely, "You have helped me so much, and I owe you a favor. If you need help, just say so."

Huo Zhourong said quietly: "And then?"

Xiao Xingxing's following words were blocked in her throat, she nervously picked up the teacup, and drank it to the bottom.

"Mr. Huo, let me tell you all! I know how the scars on my shoulders came about, so we will not owe anyone even if we are even. If you think what I said is wrong or unhappy, I can skip this meal After leaving immediately, we will act as if we don’t know each other, but we are not familiar with each other anyway!”

She almost suffocated after speaking in one breath, patting her chest and panting hard.Then he looked at Huo Zhourong carefully, and found that the man opposite him had an unpleasant complexion.

Xiao Xingxing: ヾ( ̄□ ̄;)

Did she screw things up...

"How did you get your scar?" Huo Zhourong rubbed the center of his brows, wondering what the girl was thinking.

Xiao Xingxing: "Just... we played together, and then you accidentally knocked over the frying pan, scalding me?" Her voice became smaller and smaller.

Huo Zhourong: "..."

"Who told you that?"

Xiao Xingxing: "I guess..."

There was a moment of silence in the private room, the waiter appeared in time and started to serve the food, after a while of dishes being mixed, it became quiet again.

"Did I guess wrong..." Xiao Xingxing asked in a low voice.

Huo Zhourong looked at her quietly: "I'm hungry, I don't want to talk now."

"Oh……"

The dishes on the table were very beautiful, and Xiao Xingxing liked them all, but she didn't know how to eat, so she secretly glanced at the man opposite from time to time.

Huo Zhourong didn't look at her from the beginning to the end, and took his food without haste.Slowly, Xiao Xingxing's attention was diverted, and he felt that the hands holding the chopsticks were really very beautiful.

His eyes moved up, and his face was also pretty, as expected of the little brother I liked when I was a child.It's a pity that they are people from two worlds now, and she has to be careful about her fiancée who doesn't know where she is.

Thinking of her fiancée, Xiao Xingxing thought of that manga again, and the fate of her and her son flashed in her mind repeatedly, and finally she gritted her teeth.

"Mr. Huo, have you finished eating..."

Huo Zhourong put down his chopsticks: "You are wrong."

"What?"

"You just mean that I helped you before, but because I hurt you when I was a child, they cancel each other out. We don't owe anyone else?"

Xiao Xingxing was inexplicably guilty, and nodded with a stiff neck: "Yes..."

The man opposite suddenly began to roll up his shirt sleeves, exposing half of his elbows.

"Come here." Huo Zhourong turned his elbow to the side.

Xiao Xingxing leaned over and looked down, then she was stunned.

Huo Zhourong actually has a tattoo on the inside of his wrist! ! !

There seemed to be a few strange symbols on the black totem. Before Xiao Xingxing could see it clearly, Huo Zhourong put down his arm.

"Are you also trying to cover up the scar?" Xiao Xingxing blurted out, and then hurriedly covered his mouth.

Are you stupid?You know it before people tell you...

Huo Zhou smiled with tolerance: "So you got tattooed too? What kind of tattoo?"

"..." Xiao Xingxing's silence is golden, and he feels that talking too much is wrong.

Huo Zhourong asked again: "Then who do you think caused the scar on my arm?"

Xiao Xingxing shook his head vigorously, it wasn't her anyway.
