She is the moonlight in the dark night

Chapter 29 She Can't See That Beam of Light Anymore

Huo Zheng didn't mean to go to see Ji Yingying, but she was the most dazzling existence in the crowd.

The light green dress made her skin thin and white, and the black suit jacket couldn't hold back her charm.

His speech is smooth and natural, and his voice is soothing.

Everyone listened to his speech quietly, but Huo Zheng, who was standing behind the microphone, suddenly paused, and his deep eyes seemed to be swept up by a storm in an instant.

In just a split second, before everyone had time to figure out what happened, he naturally took his mistakes over and finished the second half of his speech.

After the game, Huo Zheng sat back beside Ji Yingying.

At this time, Han Xiaolei had already left Ji Yingying's side because she was named by Mrs. Chu.

"I have benefited a lot from Mr. Huo's speech."

Ji Yingying praised Huo Zheng skillfully, but the storm in the man's eyes did not calm down because of her soft words.

Noticing the low aura around the man, Ji Yingying thought it was because he was bored with speeches, so she quietly closed her mouth.

After the meeting was over, Huo Zheng dragged her to President Chu and Mrs. Chu.

Only then did Ji Yingying understand why he was in a bad mood. When he was standing on the stage, he saw her and went to talk to Mrs. Chu.

She suddenly remembered the man who gritted his teeth and asked "Is it Chu Muyao" after learning that it was not the first time for her. For some reason, he seemed to hate Chu Muyao extremely.

Alarm bells rang in Ji Yingying's mind, but it was too late.

Huo Zheng chatted with Chu Ding for a few words, and then they talked about Chu Muyao like a casual chat.

"I heard from others that Mr. Chu's son is very good."

When Chu Muyao was mentioned, Chu Ding subconsciously glanced at Ji Yingying who was standing beside Huo Zheng.

Ji Yingying met his eyes and almost jumped up.

Watch what she does!Why do you have to make it so easy to misunderstand!
Sure enough, the man grabbed her hand tightly.

His strength was not small, as if he was going to crush her hand in the next moment.

"Naturally not as good as Mr. Huo."

Chu Ding became humble. Even so, others could see the unconcealable pride on his face when Chu Muyao was mentioned.

Chu Ding and Gong Han didn't remember the face in front of them at all, it had appeared in Ji's house a few years ago.

Huo Zheng remembered them.

The arrogance that Chu Muyao unconsciously revealed in his youth was the same as that of his parents.

Huo Zheng looked at Ji Yingying beside him with a half-smile.

"I remember that you and Mr. Chu are old acquaintances. Did you also like the excellent Mr. Chu when you were young?"

There was a smile in his voice, as if he was joking.

But Ji Yingying could only feel the cold air rising from her tailbone and flooding her whole body.

Gong Han looked at Ji Yingying reproachfully.

She didn't recognize that Huo Zheng was the son of one of Ji's servants, so she naturally thought that Ji Yingying had voluntarily disclosed these things to Huo Zheng.

Ji Yingying didn't have time to consider Gong Han's mood at all, her nerves were completely tense, and her brain was running at full speed, just to answer Huo Zheng's question correctly.

"I used to be ordinary friends with Chu Muyao, but it's only limited to friends. President Huo, please don't misunderstand."

But is there a right answer to this question?

The gloom in Huo Zheng's eyes did not disappear.

Chu Ding and Gong Han chatted a few more words, and left quickly when they saw that the atmosphere was not right.

Only Ji Yingying was left at a loss as she faced Huo Zheng whose expression suddenly turned cold.

After Chu Ding and Gong Han walked away, Gong Han frowned and complained.

"That girl Ji Yingying is really a beauty. Fortunately, we did our best to prevent Mu Yao from pursuing her and sent him abroad. After all these years, Mu Yao's thoughts have also been broken."

Chu Ding snorted coldly.

"The Ji family has a few good things. I knew it back then. Sooner or later, the Ji family will collapse. Isn't it almost bankrupt this year?"

Having said that, he gave Gong Han a sideways look.

"It's not like you don't know how stubborn your son is. He will be back next month. Take good care of him and don't let Ji Yingying win his heart away again."
-
Ji Yingying was about to explain to Huo Zheng why she went to Mrs. Chu just now.

But he called Yu Shu directly, and after whispering a few words, Yu Shu was ordered to leave.

Ji Yingying seized the opportunity and quickly explained.

"Mr. Huo, there is nothing I can do about Han Xiaolei pestering me just now, so I went to talk to Mrs. Chu."

Huo Zheng interrupted her suddenly.

"I'm right in front. If you encounter difficulties, go to the Chu family?"

His eyes were cold, and no emotion could leave a shadow in them.

"Ji Yingying, you'd better not forget who you really are. As I said, the Ji family is just an ant in front of me."

A sense of powerlessness rose from the bottom of Ji Yingying's heart, she stopped explaining and just lowered her eyes.

"Yes, Mr. Huo doesn't need to worry too much, I know my duty."

After Huo Zheng fulfilled his obligations and gave a speech in place of Luo Chengwang, he didn't want to stay here for a second longer.

Before the dinner was halfway through, the speedboat arranged by Yu Shu stopped beside the cruise ship.

Ji Yingying pulled her skirt and jumped from the cruise ship to the speedboat carefully stepping on her high heels.

Huo Zheng didn't help her, and the people next to him didn't even have the guts to help her.

When she landed, there was water in the yacht, and she twisted her ankle, almost losing her footing.

Unable to stand firmly, half of the suit on her shoulders slipped off, revealing half of her shoulders.

The river in the distance is undulating, but it is not as dazzling as her fair skin.

Huo Zheng felt the eyes of the men around him subconsciously falling on the beautiful scenery, and pulled up the suit jacket with gloomy eyes, as if he wanted to wrap every inch of her skin in the jacket.

The yacht gradually moved away from the cruise ship, and when it suddenly accelerated, Ji Yingying didn't notice it for a while, and let out a soft cry, her body was almost thrown behind her.

The man who had been ignoring her stretched out his hand to stop her, and stopped her slender waist with his solid arm.

Ji Yingying bumped into his arms, as if bumped into a rock, feeling a little dizzy, and could smell the pleasant aroma of cold snow on his nose, mixed with the damp smell of spray on both sides of the hull.

She was pressed in the seat by him, Ji Yingying couldn't adapt to the sound and speed of the speedboat, and after being frightened by almost flying out just now, her small face was as white as paper, and her bright blush couldn't cover her panic.

Huo Zheng frowned tightly, and held her hand tightly on the armrest with some disgust.

The warmth of the man's palm dispelled the tension in Ji Yingying's heart.

She raised her eyes and saw the man's furrowed brows, and all kinds of thoughts filled her heart in a mess.

Unknowingly, her white teeth clenched her soft lower lip, and Ji Yingying didn't want to guess Huo Zheng's heart anymore.

The man in front of him may never know.

She had only liked one person in her entire teenage years.

It wasn't Chu Muyao from the neighbor's house, but the boy in white shirt who would show up at Ji's house every summer vacation.

That young man named Huo Zheng was in full bloom with a light that only she could see, illuminating her entire youth.

But now, he held her hand tightly.

But she could no longer see that beam of light.
