Chapter 190聽聽 - Excessive reaction
After Huo Xi Wen finished drinking the ginger soup, she laid on the bed, but for some reason, no matter how much she tossed and turned, he could not fall asleep.
Outside the window, the rain gradually lessened. Occasionally, a few drops would be hit by the wind, but no sound would be produced.
During her chat with Fu Hui Hui today, she found out quite a lot about him.
He now knew the reason why he hadn鈥檛 returned to the country in four years.
She hadn鈥檛 thought that after she was saved by him that year, he would not only be shot, but would also be in so much trouble.
The problem had not been resolved until today, so much so that he could be in danger of losing his life at any moment now.
When she thought back to how he had caused her to lose everything and directly found someone to take his life, she couldn鈥檛 help but admire his abilities.
He always had the means to provoke people and put himself in danger.
When she thought about the gambling house tonight, she suddenly remembered that she hadn鈥檛 called Zhang Jun Xian yet.
He immediately jumped off the bed and took out his mobile phone from his backpack. He found a spare charger on the socket by the bedside.
After the phone was plugged in, it turned on and countless text messages flew in.
Among them, there were Zhang Jun Xian鈥檚 and his own mother鈥檚.
It looked like Zhang Jun Xian had called his house before.
Without thinking too much into it, she first called home.
The phone rang twice before it was connected. The one who answered was the housekeeper.
"Sister Bing, is my Mummy asleep?"
Sister Bing: "It鈥檚 Big Miss. Where did you go? Your phone can鈥檛 be reached. Mr. Zhang called and said that he took you to the winery, so you left first. Madam was worried about you, so she hasn鈥檛 slept yet. "
Huo Xi Wen: "Tell Mummy to pick up the phone."
Not long after, Mrs. Howe鈥檚 anxious voice came out of the phone, "XIwen, what鈥檚 going on? Didn鈥檛 you go out with Junxian? Why did Junxian call to say that he couldn鈥檛 find you, and where are you now? "
"Mummy, don鈥檛 worry, I just met an old friend. After not seeing him for so many years, I just went to his house to chat and reminisce about the past. Because it鈥檚 raining, he left me here again." Huo Xi Wen said.
"Old friend? Male or female? Xi Wen, the Mummy has told you, you can鈥檛 just abandon the handsome one and walk away. Do you know how anxious he was finding you? Where are you now? I鈥檒l get the driver to pick you up. " Mrs. Howe was still a little worried that a girl would be outside, especially when she did not know who the other person was.
"It鈥檚 a woman, Mummy, do you remember when I was kidnapped in America? She was the one who called someone to save me, so don鈥檛 worry, I鈥檓 fine here. It鈥檚 too late now. I鈥檒l go home early tomorrow morning. Why don鈥檛 you go to bed early tonight? As for Zhang Jun Xian, I will give him a call later. " Huo Xi Wen replied because she was afraid that his mother would let her imagination run wild.
When Mrs. Howe heard that it was the person who had saved Huo Xi Wen鈥檚 life before, he immediately calmed down, "Since we met friends, then let鈥檚 properly get together. However, let鈥檚 not talk too late, we need to rest early, understand?"
"Got it, Mummy, don鈥檛 worry." Huo Xi Wen agreed.
"Explain yourself to the people on the handsome side. When he called me, his tone was rather urgent. Don鈥檛 make people think that you don鈥檛 know how to behave and cause them to worry for nothing." The Mrs. Howe warned again.
"En, I know what to say, hurry up and sleep. Good night, Mummy." With that said, Huo Xi Wen hung up.
After taking care of her mother, she heaved a long sigh of relief. At least, she could sleep peacefully tonight.
Flipping through the call log, he found Zhang Jun Xian鈥檚 number. There were more than 10 missed calls.
It seems like this fellow was quite worried about her after seeing her disappear.
He called back. After she answered the call, before she could say anything, Zhang Jun Xian鈥檚 voice came out of the phone, "Where are you?"
"I鈥檝e already left the winery. I鈥檓 sorry about tonight, I didn鈥檛 tell you before I left." Huo Xi Wen still felt a little guilty. After all, her words did not make anyone worry.
"I know, I鈥檓 asking where you are now." Zhang Jun Xian asked. His voice was transmitted over through his phone, and his tone was no longer clear, but Huo Xi Wen could feel that he seemed to be slightly angry in his heart.
"This... Can I not tell you that you have forgotten our agreement? We agreed that we don鈥檛 care about each other鈥檚 business. " She had no intention of telling him where she was.
"Today, I was the one who brought you out of your house. It鈥檚 my duty to send you back."
"No need." She didn鈥檛 know why he was so stubborn, but she clearly didn鈥檛 need him to send her home.
"You are with Fu Mu Yun?" Zhang Jun Xian seemed to have thought of something at this moment, and asked directly.
His words made Huo Xi Wen鈥檚 heart beat faster, "Who I am with has nothing to do with you. Mr Zhang, please don鈥檛 forget our agreement, I will not interfere with your life, please don鈥檛 bother with me either."
"Alright." In the end, there was nothing Zhang Jun Xian could do to her.
"Sorry to trouble you tonight."
"No need, I鈥檓 asking for trouble." After Zhang Jun Xian finished this sentence, he hung up the phone.
Huo Xi Wen looked at the hung up phone and felt embarrassed.
She knew that leaving like this was not right, but wasn鈥檛 Zhang Jun Xian鈥檚 reaction a little too big?
That last sentence was obviously filled with anger. What was he angry about?
On the other side of the phone, Zhang Jun Xian hung up and returned to the private room to sit down. He threw the phone on the table in front of him with a face full of displeasure.
Who angered our Young Master Zhang? "Look, his face is going to turn crooked from anger." To the side, Sun Luo held her cup of wine, brought her face closer to him and teased.
"Go away, don鈥檛 provoke me." Zhang Jun Xian waved his hand, picked up the cup of red wine in front of him and drank it all in one go.
"Damn, how can you drink this way?" This is a collection of over two million yuan per bottle. Can you not be so reckless? " Sun Luo鈥檚 face was full of shock as he looked at Zhang Jun Xian who was so angry that his face turned ugly. Then, he waved his hand towards the beauties beside him, "All of you, quickly go and coax Young Master Zhang to be happy. Do you all want the entrance fees for today?"
Hearing that, the few young masters immediately rushed over and sat by Zhang Jun Xian鈥檚 side, feeding him snacks to cheer him up.
On the other side, Li Xiang who had lost all his money sat in a corner drinking his wine with his face covered in dust.
Not only did he lose all of the company鈥檚 stocks, he lost even the few small companies that he was in charge of and some fixed assets under his name to Fu Mu Yun. The most infuriating thing was that he did not know how to escape from the assassination attempts on Fu Mu Yun.
Now that he was home, he really didn鈥檛 know how to explain this to his parents and his wife.
"I said you had enough to drink tonight. Don鈥檛 drink anymore." Sun Luo saw that there were three to four red wine bottles in front of him, and was worried that he would have trouble drinking any more, so he stepped forward to stop him.
"Get out of the way, why? "Are you afraid that I would give you money for your wine?" Li Xiang pushed him, and said fiercely.
"Li Xiang, it鈥檚 meaningless for you to speak like that, why would I need the money to drink? "I invited you here to drink, but you drank too much. I was afraid something might have happened to you if you drank too much." Sun Luo also did not have a good temper. He was kind enough to advise him, but being rebuked by him like this, he felt less and less unhappy in his heart.
"Something has happened? You don鈥檛 need to worry about something happening to me? Speaking of which, I鈥檓 not blaming you for what happened tonight. What the hell is your team up to? Do you have a deep relationship with Fu Mu Yun? Why did you invite him over? " It was good that he did not mention anything about inviting them over tonight. Once he mentioned it, Li Xiang could not help but blame her loss on him.
After Sun Luo heard this, he immediately became angry, "Li Xiang, are you a man or not? Can鈥檛 you speak with a bit of a sense of responsibility? I invited so many people tonight, which one of them doesn鈥檛 have status and position in Y City? In the lounge, there were quite a number of people sitting at the table. Everyone knew that the situation was bad and they would retreat after losing a bit. Who would be the one that refused to let go? When we were playing until the end, the Mr. Fu had already said that you would stop here. It was you who did not give up and wanted to make a comeback, now that you have lost and you want to blame it on me, let me tell you, it won鈥檛 work. "
"I鈥檓 even f * cking wondering if it was you and that surnamed Fu that sat together. How come his hand wind is so smooth?" Li Xiang said with a face full of doubt.
Hearing that, Sun Luo immediately became furious, rushed to his front and grabbed him by the collar, "What the fuck did you say? If you have the guts, say it again. If you slander me, do you believe that I won鈥檛 kill you? "
"What is it? I have it in my hands. He had already lost everything and did not care who he had offended. Right now, he urgently needed to find a scapegoat to help him take the responsibility of losing money, and that way, even if he could not chase down the money, it would be easier to take it from the bottom of his heart.
When he returned home, he could also be said to have been deceived by others.
It was hard for him to accept that he had lost so badly because of him.
Sun Luo waved his fist, wanting to beat him up.
Zhang Jun Xian who was seated at the side suddenly stood up, reached out and grabbed his wrist, "Alright, we鈥檙e all good brothers, you鈥檙e thinking too much even when he鈥檚 drunk?"
"Forget it, I don鈥檛 have such a good brother like him." Sun Luo did not want to care about Li Xiang anymore, so he let go of his. He walked to the side of the sofa and sat down, raised his wine cup and gulped it down his throat.
"Li Xiang, do you really plan to let this matter go just like this? You鈥檙e letting him win with money? " Zhang Jun Xian asked as he looked at the dispirited and lifeless Li Xiang.
"What else can I do? I sent for someone to stop his car, but his car is still parked here, and he鈥檚 gone. This fellow is too cunning. " Li Xiang had completely lost the courage to fight Fu Mu Yun.
He knew that he couldn鈥檛 defeat this person.
