Chapter 1919: Xia Tang and Huo Ze’s Finale(1)

The Zhou family’s son was called Zhou Xiurui and had returned from studying abroad in Cen Xi.

He was smart, handsome, and talented. He liked to take on new challenges and had already become the successor of the Zhou family.

The moment he returned to Harbor City, he attracted the attention of many single ladies.

Huo Heng glanced at Zhou Xiurui and looked at Xia Cha, his eyebrows slightly raised. “Why? Are you interested?”

The moment Huo Heng finished speaking, before Xia Cha could say anything, she heard Old Master Huo’s unhappy voice. “The Zhou family is talented and elegant. I think they’re a good fit for Xiaocha.”

With that said, she glared at Huo Heng and said, “Xiaocha probably isn’t interested in you.”

Huo Heng was speechless.

Whose grandfather was he?

Xia Cha was amused by Old Master Huo’s words.

She had a classic appearance and when she smiled, her eyes were clear and beautiful.

Even Zhou Xiurui glanced over.Old Master Huo saw Zhou Xiurui’s gaze and walked over with Xia Cha.

A guest came over to greet Huo Heng, so he couldn’t leave immediately.

Xia Cha was already standing in front of Zhou Xiurui.

Huo Heng glanced at the back of Xia Cha’s gown from the corner of his eye and his breathing paused slightly.

When she came, he had already noticed her.

But he had not noticed her back.

The back was cut-out, revealing her curvy spine and slender waist.

Huo Heng tightened his grip on the wine glass.

“President Huo, the project I was talking about…”

The person speaking to Huo Heng saw that he was distracted and cautiously reminded him.

Huo Heng raised his glass at that person and said with an indifferent expression, “Let’s not talk about work today.”That person looked at Huo Heng. He had dealt with him a few years ago. In the past, he had been frivolous and arrogant. He was a typical good-for-nothing.

He had not expected him to have become so stable and cold.

Time and experience really helped to restore people.

Huo Heng took a sip of the champagne in his glass and then looked at Zhou Xiurui and Xia Cha from the corner of his eye.

The Old Master stood on the other side and spoke to someone. At this moment, Zhou Xiurui and Xia Cha were alone.

Zhou Xiurui was holding a glass of champagne with one hand and had the other in his pocket as he looked at Xia Cha with a smile.

Huo Heng could only see Xia Cha’s side profile. He did not know what Zhou Xiurui had said, but Xia Cha smiled.

When she smiled, she looked elegant and beautiful, like the gentle spring wind.

…

Zhou Xiurui knew Xia Cha. He said that she had heard her song when she first debuted.

He was a fan.Later, he felt it was a pity when he learned that she had left the industry.

He had the single that Xia Cha had written. He hoped that she would give him an autograph the next time he saw her.

Xia Cha responded with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Xia Cha found Xia Mo and Junyuan. After talking to them for a while, she went to the washroom.

Because she had visited the Huo family’s old residence, Xia Cha did not need to ask the servant to know where the washroom was.

There was no one in the washroom so she went in to touch up her makeup.

It had been a while since she wore high heels and she felt a little uncomfortable standing for too long.

She washed her hands and wiped them with a piece of tissue.

She opened the door.

She had just pulled open a crack when the door of the washroom was stopped by a large hand.

Before Xia Cha could react, a tall figure squeezed in.Xia Cha was shocked.

The man was faster than her and the door was locked.

Then, the man grabbed Xia Cha’s shoulders and pressed her against the door frame.

Xia Cha’s first reaction was to push him away, but he was like a mountain that could not be moved.

The man’s expression was much calmer than hers.

However, Xia Cha’s heart was beating like a drum, “If you want to go to the washroom, you can wait for me to go out first.”

The man looked down at her. As they were so close to each other, the faint smell of alcohol on him, as well as the refreshing scent, was slightly enchanting.

“No,” he said.

Xia Cha looked up at him.

Their eyes met.

His black hair was neat and his tall nose almost poked the tip of her nose, her slightly flustered appearance reflected in his eyes.Xia Cha was afraid that someone would come to the washroom later. After all, this was the Huo family’s old mansion. The washroom was open to both men and women.

Seeing his gaze staring straight at her as if he wanted to see through her, she turned her face away unnaturally. “What are you doing?”

Her voice was pleasant to hear and her questioning tone was coy and seductive. His gaze on her darkened.

He raised his hand and brushed a strand of hair by her cheek behind her ear.

When his fingertips touched her smooth cheek, her eyelashes fluttered.

“What did you talk about with Zhou Xiurui?” His tone was not strong and his voice was slightly hoarse.

Xia Cha was trapped between his arms and the door frame. In addition, he seemed to be looking straight into his heart, making her anxious and angry.

“Let go of me first. We can talk outside.”

“We can talk here.”

Xia Cha wished she could kick him.

“Don’t you care about my reputation at all?” If people really saw them, who knew what would they say?

He pursed his lips slightly and said nothing more.

Seeing that he was silent now, Xia Cha was even more angry. Since she could not push him away, she tried to pull his hand away from the door frame.

However, the moment she did, he grabbed her hand tightly.

“Huo Heng, what are you trying to do?”

“Don’t listen to my grandfather. Zhou Xiurui is not suitable for you.”

Xia Cha frowned slightly.

“Then who do you think is suitable?” She pulled her hand back forcefully from his large palm.

Her fingers hurt from his grip and she rubbed them with her eyes lowered.

Just then, he replied, “Me.”

Xia Cha thought she was hallucinating.

“I still can’t forget about you. I’ve tried, but I can’t.”

Xia Cha looked down at their toes that were touching and her fingertips curled up unconsciously.

His low voice trailed from above her as her heart thumped rapidly.

Huo Heng looked at the girl who had her head lowered and not looking at him. His slender fingers lifted her chin.

There was nothing unusual on her face, but her long eyelashes fluttered suddenly.

“Can you give me another chance? If you still don’t like me in the end, I won’t force you anymore.”

Xia Cha’s heart constricted.

He wouldn’t force her. Then, they would be strangers in the future.

It seemed like a century had passed before she finally gave her answer.

“I can give you a chance, but that will depend on your performance.”

She had already spoken clearly and was willing to give him a chance to prove himself.

She was only in her early twenties. Although her heart was no longer as calm as before, she was still a young girl. She hoped that he could use a boy’s way of wooing a girl to move her.

Huo Heng naturally understood Xia Cha’s thoughts.

Their first meeting hadn’t been a good one, and she wanted to make up for it.

Huo Heng looked at Xia Cha’s clear eyes, the nervousness in his heart turning into softness. “Okay.”
