She is the moonlight in the dark night

Chapter 53 She Will Always Be That Outsider

Ji Yingying stood with her head down, trying to shield herself with her thoughts.

From the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Huo Zheng's long legs, and she raised her eyes in amazement, only to realize that Huo Zheng had come to her at some point.

He put one hand in his pocket, raised his chin slightly, and stared at her.

"It's in the cabinet at the back, you really know where to go."

It was only then that Ji Yingying realized that there was a cabinet behind her, and she quickly moved away.

The speed is fast, as if avoiding some terrible plague.

Huo Zheng saw it, his dark eyes narrowed dangerously.

Ji Yingying also inevitably saw the bag that Huo Zheng took out from the cabinet, it was very familiar.
She remembered that this bag was exactly the one she was holding in her hand when she saw Huo Zheng and Yu Shu leaving the jewelry store that day.

It turned out that this bag was actually a gift for Xia Zhixi.

Unknowingly, Ji Yingying looked at the back of Huo Zheng leaving without looking back.

She saw Huo Zheng open the bag naturally, and after taking out the jewelry box, she naturally took out the silver necklace from it.

He raised his hand to gather Xia Zhixi's long hair that was draped over his shoulders, and put the necklace on Xia Zhixi's neck with his own hands.

The silver-white necklace made Xia Zhixi's white and delicate skin even more perfect. When he lowered his head, there was tenderness in his eyes, and he treated Xia Zhixi like she was a rare treasure.

Ji Yingying bit her lower lip lightly, and she didn't react until a burst of pain came.

Ji Yingying hurriedly lowered her head and set her eyes on her toes again.

Sometimes, it seemed that she couldn't see the love for Xia Zhixi from Huo Zheng's eyes.

However, sometimes, Huo Zheng's tenderness is the best evidence.

Unexpectedly, four years ago, she stood aside and watched Huo Zheng and his sister interact intimately.

Four years later, she would still stand by and watch Huo Zheng put a necklace on Xia Zhixi.

She will always be that outsider.

The only difference is that four years ago, every movement he made was like a knife stirring in her heart.

Four years later, looking at similar scenes, she felt nothing at all.

"Wear it."

Huo Zheng helped Xia Zhixi let down her hair again.

Xia Zhixi touched the pendant around her neck, the metal was slightly cold, but her heart was warm.

"Thank you so much, I like it very much, Brother Zheng."

She reached out and hugged Huo Zheng, leaning her head on his firm chest, coquettishly.

Huo Zheng froze.

After all these years, he still wasn't used to Xia Zhixi's extra intimate behavior.

Because of her eyes, Xia Zhixi relied more on her sense of touch.

He stretched out his hand to wrap Xia Zhixi's shoulder, and patted her on the back with the other hand.

Xia Zhixi did not let go of her hand for a long time, and it was also difficult for Huo Zheng to let go.

His hugging movements were all virtual, he held her shoulders virtually, as if he was hugging, but in fact there was not much contact area.

With his condensed gaze, he unconsciously looked at Ji Yingying who was standing in a far corner, wearing an ordinary black servant uniform.

She lowered her head, her long black hair scattered on both sides of her cheeks.

Even though she lowered her head as much as possible, she couldn't hide her elegant face, and her rosy lips were gently pursed.

I couldn't see her eyes, and I didn't know what she was thinking.

Anyway, it's not about him.

Huo Zheng suddenly remembered the gesture she avoided just now.

How much this woman hates meeting him!
Thinking of this, Huo Zheng's eyes suddenly darkened.

The strength in his hand also sank, Xia Zhixi felt it, and the expression buried in his chest was extremely happy.

Did Brother Zheng not hug her enough?Suddenly force.

She lingered in his embrace for a while, then let go and left Huo Zheng's embrace.

"Brother Zheng, I'm going to go back to sleep, so you should go to bed early too."

Before leaving, Xia Zhixi grabbed Huo Zheng's hand and instructed softly.

Huo Zheng let out a "hmm".

Before Xia Zhixi finished speaking, Huo Zheng suddenly called out.

"Ji Yingying, come here and help Zhixi go back."

Ji Yingying, who was suddenly named by him, was stunned.

She didn't know where her mind had drifted.

He suddenly came to his senses when he heard his name.

"Yes."

She hurried forward, spread out her palms and waited aside.

Huo Zheng handed Xia Zhixi's hand into Ji Yingying's.

Xia Zhixi immediately took Ji Yingying's hand.

She took one last look in Huo Zheng's direction, and said softly, "Go back, I'm going to sleep too."

Ji Yingying helped her to go out. The moment she left the study and was about to close the door, she looked at Huo Zheng who had returned to the desk in the study.

The man seemed to have anticipated her actions, and gave her a half-smile.

The moment Xia Zhixi was handed over to her just now, Huo Zheng unexpectedly!

Thinking of this, Ji Yingying couldn't help grinding her back molars.

He actually took advantage of the moment when he just handed Xia Zhixi over to her, and gently scratched her palm.

This dog man should be ashamed!

As soon as he gave Xia Zhixi the necklace as a gift, he turned around and started teasing her!
Ji Yingying only felt that the palm of her hand was hot and uncomfortable, as if the temperature from his fingertips was still on it.

However, because she had to support Xia Zhixi, she couldn't do anything, so she could only resist and walk back.
-
On the other side, in Huo Zheng's study.

Not long after Xia Zhixi and Ji Yingying left, Huo Zheng left the study and came to Huo Jiao's room.

Huo Jiao was sitting by the window, when she heard the noise at the door, she raised her eyes and looked this way.

"I gave Zhixi a gift."

Huo Zheng said in a low voice.

He picked up the thin blanket from the side and covered her lap.

Huo Jiao squeezed the soft blanket, smiled lightly and said, "That's good, I feel that Zhixi is not particularly happy recently, so I specifically asked you to buy a necklace for her, is she happier?"

Huo Zheng thought of Xia Zhixi's blushing little face just now because of her happiness.

"Probably, I just don't understand, it's very convenient for you to shop outside, why can't you take Zhixi to go shopping directly?"

Huo Jiao looked at Huo Zheng reproachfully.

"Can the things you buy be the same as the gifts you get from others?"

Huo Zheng didn't understand the thoughts of girls as old as Huo Jiao and Xia Zhixi, so he didn't say anything.

After talking to Huo Jiao a few more words, he left Huo Jiao's room.

Huo Jiao's phone rang softly, she glanced at the message on the phone, and a sneer appeared on her lips.

She casually put the phone on her lap, and the screen of the phone lit up, and it was the message Xia Zhixi had sent her.

Xia Zhixi: [I was worrying too much, Ji Yingying has a boyfriend at school. 】

She uses a mobile phone that can be used by the visually impaired, and sends messages without the help of others.

Huo Jiao glanced at the message again and murmured softly.

"Sometimes, Xia Zhixi is really stupid."

She called Sister Zheng in, leaned over and whispered something in Sister Zheng's ear.

Sister Zheng's eyes lit up, she nodded and bowed and left Huo Jiao's room.

Huo Jiao then picked up the phone again and replied slowly.

[That's really great. 】
