Poor little homeless, Mr. Huo took her home and loved her

He Mei walked closer and sat down next to Zhou Ning.

"You are here alone? Where is brother Qingzhou?"

"He went to answer the phone."

Zhou Ning is concise and to the point.

He Mei nodded in understanding and looked at Zhou Ning meaningfully. She found that Zhou Ning was not wearing the evening dress she had prepared today. Compared with the dress she had prepared, the dress she was wearing was much more simple and elegant.

But she still looks very beautiful.

Her eyes tightened.

Just now in the crowd, she actually noticed Zhou Ning's presence at a glance. She obviously didn't do anything, but she had an indescribable temperament that was very attractive.

"You must be eating here alone. I'll keep you company."

She spoke considerately and took the wine that was placed aside, "Come on, let's have a drink."

Zhou Ning took a look at it, and remembered that she was pregnant and couldn't drink at all, so she shook her head and refused.

He Mei continued to persuade: "This is good wine, very delicious, a bottle costs 700,000 or 800,000 yuan, you didn't have the chance to drink it before, why not drink a little, it's okay."

When Zhou Ning heard the price, his pupils shrank.

It actually costs so much money.

Poverty has limited her thinking.

Despite this, she politely declined: "Sorry, I can't drink."

He Mei stared at her deeply: "Why can't you drink?"

Zhou Ning felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by He Mei. She always felt that under He Mei's seemingly kind appearance, there were too many things hidden that she didn't know.

"I can't drink much."

He Mei smiled wryly: "That's a pity, I don't even have a chance to taste such good wine."

Then he looked at her flat shoes and asked, "Why aren't you wearing high heels for an occasion like today?"

“Must I wear it?”

Zhou Ning asked back, why did she feel that He Mei asked too many questions today.

"Of course it's not mandatory, but when attending an occasion like this, you naturally have to wear high heels to appear formal. Moreover, when you walk next to Brother Qingzhou, you must also pay attention to etiquette and not embarrass him."

Of course, Zhou Ning was not in a position to reveal the real reason.

This is not only about her privacy, but also about Huo Qingzhou's privacy. What's more, Huo Qingzhou is a person who attaches great importance to privacy.

He Mei smiled kindly again: "I don't mean anything else, I just want to remind you."

"Thank you for your reminder, but Mr. Huo agreed with me to wear this."

He Mei smiled coldly in her heart.

At this time, a strange voice came from far away, calling He Mei's name.

Zhou Ning looked over and saw several strange women, all dressed gorgeously, walking towards them. They seemed to be He Mei's friends.

"He Mei, so you are here. It took us a long time to find you."

After a simple greeting, they cast their curious eyes on Zhou Ning, with a bit of inquiring intent.

He Mei took the initiative to smile and said, "You may not know each other yet, this is my friend Zhou Ning."

friend?

Zhou Ning's expression changed slightly, and he really didn't dare to call him a friend.

I thought it was just a simple greeting, but unexpectedly, one of the blonde women looked at Zhou Ning carefully and said, "Hey, I think I've seen you at Jiangcheng University."

Zhou Ning glanced at her. It was a completely unfamiliar face.

The blonde woman continued, "Your parents are workers on the construction site, often moving bricks. I remember that the clothes you wore before were very shabby. Why did you come to such an occasion today?"

The others pretended to be surprised.

"Carrying bricks at the construction site, so your family is so poor."

Zhou Ning's face darkened.

She didn't expect that their conversation could be so unpleasant.

He said bluntly: "My family is poor, and I don't eat your rice."

When those people saw Zhou Ning confronting them directly, their faces immediately changed.

He Mei pretended to be a peacemaker: "Stop talking, Zhou Ning is my friend."

Then he looked at Zhou Ning apologetically: "Don't be angry, they are all very straightforward and sometimes don't think too much when they speak."

Frank?

Zhou Ning sneered: "You call this straightforward?"

She didn't want to stay here any longer, and when she wanted to leave, she accidentally touched a wine glass that had been moved to the table at some point, and the wine in it spilled directly onto He Mei.

In an instant, He Mei's gorgeous clothes were stained with wine.

Zhou Ning was slightly stunned.

How come she remembered that the wine glass wasn't placed here just now?

In any case, it was all caused by her mistake. She looked at He Mei apologetically, then handed her a tissue and apologized a few words.

If she does something wrong, she will apologize generously.

Unexpectedly, before He Mei could say anything, the blonde woman standing next to her said sarcastically, "Did you do this on purpose? You know how expensive He Mei's dress is. You don't even have money to pay for it if you dirty it."

Zhou Ning held back her temper and said, "I'm sorry, why don't you change your clothes and I'll go back and help you clean them."

Blonde woman: "Please, do you think these filthy wine stains can be cleaned? Even if they are cleaned, they will never be the same again."

"If you don't have money to compensate, then you don't have money to compensate. As for saying so much, you might as well just admit it directly." Another person said.

After hearing these humiliating words, Zhou Ning's face turned cold.

She instantly realized that these people were being so arrogant and looking down on her just to make fun of her.

"I stained my clothes, it's my fault, but the wine glass was clearly not placed on the table. You should know better than me whether someone did it on purpose."

He Mei, who was cleaning her clothes, suddenly felt her expression change.

The blonde woman caught sight of it and continued to accuse him, "You said this because you don't want to lose money. I didn't expect that you are not only a pauper, but also have such a bad character!"

Just when Zhou Ning wanted to say a few words, Huo Qingzhou's cold voice came from not far behind him.

"what happened?"

When everyone saw Huo Qingzhou's tall figure walking towards them, with his overwhelming aura, they immediately restrained their expressions.

Before Zhou Ning could speak, the blonde woman said, "Mr. Huo, you came at the right time. He Mei's clothes were soiled by her, but she didn't apologize and cursed, blaming He Mei and bullying her."

He Mei suddenly looked pitiful, and while cleaning her clothes she forced a smile: "It's okay."

"He Mei, you are too kind," one of them said, "Master Huo must be informed of this matter. He is such a righteous man, he will definitely do justice for you."

Zhou Ning couldn't help but find it ridiculous when he saw this scene.

It turns out that there are people who can really say white is black.

What lay before her was just the tip of the iceberg.

There are many such phenomena in this world.

She didn't care how harsh the words these people said to her were, because she had heard them enough since she was a child, even to the point of numbness.

However, she cares about what attitude Huo Qingzhou will have after listening to their explanation.
