"Did you miss your job?" Bai Yufei asked guiltily.
"Basically, it's done. Don't worry." Huo Yunkong answered without hurry, yet he still got up to pour Bai Yufei a glass of water.
"Then I'll hurry and get up. I can still make dinner for you in time." Bai Yufei struggled to get up, but was stopped by Huo Yunkong.
"No need. "You should rest a bit longer. Let's go out and eat." Huo Yunkong looked at the ceiling thoughtfully, "You're in such a terrible state, the things you make definitely don't taste good."
Bai Yufei understood the meaning behind Huo Yunkong's words. Although he seemed to be ridiculing her, he was actually thinking for her sake.
Bai Yufei was touched. She never thought that this ice sculpture would have such a warm side to it!
In the next second, Bai Yufei changed her mind.
"The money for the meal, please deduct it from the breakfast and lunch that you didn't prepare for me today." Huo Yunkong's eyes revealed a cunning and astute look.
As expected, he did not change at all! A treacherous ice sculpture!
Bai Yufei packed her things and left with Huo Yunkong. It was rare for Huo Yunkong to drive his own car. Looking at the familiar seat on the Porsche, an awkward feeling welled up in his heart.
After the two of them sat down, Huo Yunkong saw through Bai Yufei's thoughts, intentionally teasing her, "Miss, can I trouble you to lead the way? Look, my phone suddenly went black. I can't use it for navigation! "
So Huo Yunkong was this childish! Bai Yufei laughed at this popularity, and the awkwardness instantly dissipated. Then, he took out the map and searched for the restaurant name that Huo Yunkong mentioned earlier, then played along with Huo Yunkong.
After a round of commotion, the two of them arrived at their destination. Pushing open the heavy door of the dining room, a lavishly decorated space appeared before his eyes.
The gorgeous crystal chandelier on the ceiling reflected a dreamlike colorful light from every angle, causing the entire dining room to be elegant and quiet. The soft saxophone music fills the dining room, spreading like an invisible smoke, slowly filling the mind.
The gorgeous European style tables and chairs, small and exquisite bar, all painted pure white, emitting a noble aura everywhere. There was a white porcelain vase on each table. The pink roses in the vase bloomed in a soft, fragrant manner that matched the elegance of the surroundings. Polite waiters, quiet guests, laughter and whispers from time to time. The environment was serene and beautiful.
While Bai Yufei was lamenting that the environment was very suitable for her, she couldn't help but retort that Huo Yunkong was too ruthless. How much of her salary would be deducted for this meal?
Bai Yufei was willing to go for broke since she was using her own salary. Since she had been so tired these past two days, of course she would have to eat something good to reward herself.
Looking at Bai Yufei ordering dishes, he felt that she not only knew how to drink wine, but also knew how to eat Western food. Although some of the dishes she had ordered weren't the most expensive or popular ones, they were still the most exquisite ones.
Only those who truly understood Western cuisine would do so.
Interesting. Huo Yunkong touched his lips with his finger and observed every move of Bai Yufei.
"So you think it was your roommate who copied your report?" After listening to Bai Yufei's account of the sequence of events, Huo Yunkong cleared his mind and asked.
"I'm not 100% sure, but I can only say that the chances are very high." Bai Yufei stabbed the dish with her knife, imagining herself poking Gong Mingyue before eating it in one gulp.
"I didn't want to cause too much trouble, but it gives me a headache to trouble her over and over again." Bai Yufei had wanted them to stay away from each other until she graduated from college. After all, the two of them were roommates. If they didn't see each other, it would be awkward if they got into an argument.
With a testing attitude, Bai Yufei asked, "If it was you, would you choose to remain silent or resist?"
Huo Yunkong muttered to himself for a while before saying, "By thinking of a way to slander you, she has actually proven that she is always looking up to you."
"Some evil people don't know how to control themselves. As long as they see the other party swallow their anger, they will grow more arrogant." Huo Yunkong dabbed his mouth with a napkin and continued.
"Although I don't recommend you make enemies on principle, because you don't know how dark the other person's heart is. Will he continue to take revenge on you?"
"But you have to consider this carefully. There are some connections that you don't need. Spending time with them is a waste of your time. "
Huo Yunkong didn't advise or stop Bai Yufei. He analyzed the pros and cons clearly in front of Bai Yufei and let her choose on her own.
It dawned on Bai Yufei that all she wanted to do was maintain her dignity. However, in order to maintain the peace between them and Gong Mingyue, they needed to waste too much time and effort. While he was asking for peace, the other side was trying to start a war, so his own efforts were meaningless.
She had always been too kind. She believed that others would be like her. She believed that others would be soft-hearted. She believed that others wouldn't be as heartless and unforgivable as she was.
But now that she had a new life and a chance to live it again, she would have the courage to change herself and not be soft-hearted to people who were inherently evil.
Bai Yufei was suddenly enlightened. She raised her glass and lightly touched Huo Yunkong's glass. The mist in her eyes had cleared, and her eyes had become clear and bright. Her eyes and cheeks were still slightly red from crying, making her seem even more pitiful under the dim light. Huo Yunkong was a bit confused.
"youonlyliveonce. There was only one life. Let me toast you, Teacher Huo. "
"It's my honor to help you, Miss Bai." Huo Yunkong nodded slightly and raised his glass in reply.
Only Bai Yufei knew that her life had happened twice. In this life, she would not repeat the same mistakes. She would not make the same mistakes as before!
Huo Yunkong looked at Bai Yufei, who was like a fish in water while eating western cuisine.
Was she really just a student at the A-Colleges?
A while ago, Huo Yunkong had an assistant look up Bai Yufei's background and found out that she was just a girl from a well-off family. Her parents died in an accident when she was young, and only her aunt's family acted as a protective umbrella for her and took special care of Bai Yufei.
After that, Bai Yufei did not disappoint her aunt's expectations. Relying on her hard work and her clever brain, she managed to get into the famous A-list finance department.
However, the woman in front of him was used to sitting from the left with a more appropriate way of taking her seat. She also ordered and drank as well as she knew how to do things, and her posture and manner of sitting during the meal were both polite and natural.
Even when he had just had a drink with himself, he had lightly gripped the foot of the glass with three fingers and not only had he learned to shake the glass gently so that the wine would touch the air to increase the aroma, but he had also tilted the glass as if he were holding the wine to his tongue.
If Huo Yunkong didn't know Bai Yufei's background, he would think he was having dinner with a noble and elegant rich girl.
How many more secrets do you have on you?
