Chapter 15 Nine Hundred and Ninety-Nine Roses

Saturday morning.

The alarm rang, and Yuan Xi, who was still half asleep, turned off the alarm on her phone. When she was about to get up, someone wrapped his arms around her waist.

Huo Shiyan said hoarsely: "Isn't today Saturday a day off? Why are you up so early?"

Yuan Xi could no longer remember when he had truly rested.

Today's rare Saturday rest made Yuan Xi a little dazed.

"I forgot." Yuan Xi yawned, "I'm sorry for waking you up, go back to sleep."

Huo Shiyan held Yuan Xi's waist tightly and continued to sleep.

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan's sleeping face so close to her, with a slight smile on her lips.

Rather than saying that she was acting ridiculously after getting drunk more than a month ago, it would be better to say that when she first met Huo Shiyan, she had already been attracted by his face, which was why she had a night of passion with him after getting drunk.

Yuan Xi glanced sideways at the photo of the little girl in blue on the bedside table, feeling a little guilty.

I don’t know why Huo Shiyan didn’t go find his childhood sweetheart, but instead asked her to marry him.

But Yuan Xi thought that even if she was treated as a substitute, she would not lose anything.

Huo Shiyan's genes are there, so she would gain even if she kills the father and keeps the son.

Even if Huo Shiyan regretted it one day and still chose his childhood sweetheart, at least she still had her child.

Yuan Xi's phone lit up and she saw the message in the girlfriends group.

Yuanyuanyuanzi: @Shishishi, big boss with shark arms, you are asking me to work overtime on Saturday. Aren’t you afraid that the workers’ resentment will raze your factory to the ground?
Shishi Shitou: Shiyi Group is coming to our place to build a high-end resort. Our factory will be relocated after the summer vacation, so we have to work on Saturdays recently [smile].

Get rich and lose weight every year: Are the rumors about demolition true? I am going to become a second-generation demolition worker. I already have three more houses [love]. This online name is really useful. I am really rich!
Yuanyuanyuanzi: If changing my online name is useful, then if I change it to the daughter of the richest man in Jiangcheng, can I really become the daughter of the richest man in Jiangcheng?
Yuanyuanyuanzi: I heard that the daughter of the richest man in Jiangcheng is not Chu Yan, Chu Yan was adopted. The richest Chu family has a lost daughter. Do you think it could be me?
Shi Shi Shi: No, you look exactly like your grandma!
Mi Chen Game Yuan Xi: Actually, I am the lost daughter of the richest person in the Chu family.

Mi Chen Game Yuan Xi: Are you free on the 22nd? The Chu family plans to hold a banquet for me. If you are free, you can come and participate.

Year after year, rich and thin: Yuan Xi, what are you kidding so early in the morning? It's quite convincing.

Mi Chen Game Yuan Xi: I’m not kidding, it’s true. I just found out about it not long ago. You are all welcome to attend the banquet on the 22nd.

Yuanyuanyuanzi: Novels reflect reality? Really? Are you telling the truth?
Mi Chen Game Yuan Xi: Really.

Yuanyuanyuanzi: The richest man's daughter! Ahhh! If you become rich, don't forget me!
Shishi Shitou: @米辰游戏袁曦, rich woman, are you Chu family looking for a son-in-law? I don't want to work hard anymore.

Yuanyuanyuanzi: Haha, why don’t you look in the mirror? Do you think you are worthy of my Yuan Xi?
Yuan Xi looked at the chat history in the group and chuckled, and Huo Shiyan's voice came to his ears.

"Shi Shi Shi, is it a boy?"

Yuan Xi didn't know when Huo Shiyan woke up. "Yes, his name is Shi Lei. His family runs a clothing company. My family used to run a thread factory. Our factories are close to each other, so we have been close friends since childhood. He was joking about marrying into the family. He and Chen Yuan are about to get engaged."

Huo Shiyan looked at Yuan Xi, "Doesn't he know that you are married?"

"I sent a photo of my marriage certificate, but Chen Yuan and Liang Suisui didn't seem to believe it. They thought I had photoshopped a picture of a handsome guy from the Internet."

Yuan Xi only planned to hide the fact of her marriage from Gu Hanchen and had no intention of hiding it from her good friend at all.

Huo Shiyan smiled slightly. PSing the marriage certificate was indeed something that Chen Yuan and Liang Suisui would do.

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan's faint smile and saw the dimples at the corners of his lips.

Yuan Xi stretched out her finger and gently poked Huo Shiyan's dimple, "Mr. Huo, you actually have dimples."

Huo Shiyan held Yuan Xi's fingers, looked into Yuan Xi's eyes, took a deep breath, lowered his head and kissed Yuan Xi's red lips.

Yuan Xi shuddered all over, and slowly closed his eyes, allowing Huo Shiyan to take what he wanted. His thin lips were very soft...

In the quiet room, the sound of breathing is audible.

The temperature in the constant temperature room suddenly rises at this moment.

…In the duplex on the top floor of River View No. 1, a luxury residence in the center of Jiangcheng City.

After being woken up by Bo Fan, Chu Yan whimpered, "Bo Fan, you woke me up again."

Bo Fan listened to Chu Yan's coquettish behavior and chuckled helplessly, "It's eight o'clock, it's time to get up."

Chu Yan stretched lazily: "It's only eight o'clock. I didn't sleep well yesterday."

"Bo Fan, I always feel so sorry for my sister. I am just like the fake daughter in the novel who took away everything from the real daughter. My sister is so pitiful. She has already returned to the Chu family, but she married such a gigolo..."

Bo Fan looked at Chu Yan and said, "This has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame yourself."

Chu Yan pouted and said, "I still feel sorry for my sister. The husband she found is really terrible. I want to go find her and persuade her."

Bo Fan said: "Everyone has their own ideas, you don't have to worry about it."

Chu Yan pursed her lips and said, "But I still feel sorry for my sister. If it weren't for me, my sister wouldn't have married a country man as her husband."

Bo Fan frowned when he saw the message on his phone, and did not try to comfort Chu Yan.

Chu Yan asked Xiang Bofan: "What's wrong?"

Bo Fan said, "Mr. Huo from Shixi Finance is in Jiangcheng. I want to find him to invest in Fanyan, but I don't know his whereabouts. Gu Hanchen knows Mr. Huo's whereabouts but won't tell me. I hired a private detective and only found out that Mr. Huo's car had been in a car accident, but I couldn't find Mr. Huo's specific address."

"Is Mr. Huo from West Finance very powerful at this time?" Chu Yan asked.

Bo Fan nodded and said, "You have heard of Shi Yi in City A, right? That is his family's business. He studied in the United States and Germany in his early years, and founded Shixi Finance when he returned to China. Mi Chen and Youzi Film and Television Shixi each own half of the shares. Huo Shiyan is also known as the cash king of City A. If Fan Yan can receive his investment, it will be a great help to Fan Yan."

Chu Yan asked, "Is Fan Yan short of funds?"

Bo Fan said: "It's not a shortage, but Fan Yan wants to make two movies, and it would be best if he could find Huo Shiyan's help."

Chu Yan tilted her head and said, "Since Shixi has invested in Youzi Film and Television, will Huo Shiyan also attend Si Chen's wedding in a few days? How about we also attend Si Chen's wedding?"

Naturally, the Bo family also received Si Chen's wedding invitation, but because of Bo Yan, they didn't want to go at first.

But Bo Fan thought that he could still go for Huo Shiyan's investment.

……

After a two-day weekend, Yuan Xi finally got a good rest.

She got up early on Monday morning without using an alarm clock. Her girlfriends were all sending 520 emojis, and her friends circle was full of people showing off their flowers, money transfers, and gifts.

Yuan Xi didn't plan to ask Huo Shiyan to give her any 520 gifts. After all, although they were married, they didn't get married because of love.

After Huo Shiyan sent Yuan Xi to Mi Chen Company, he got out of the car with Yuan Xi and entered the president's special elevator.

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan and said, "Aren't you going back?"

Huo Shiyan said, "Today is Si Chen's wedding. I will go with him to pick up the bride in the afternoon. I will be in Michen in the morning to help Gu Hanchen look at the roadshow manuscript before the listing. I will not go back."

Yuan Xi smiled faintly and said, "Yeah."

Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyan arrived at the 58th floor and got out of the elevator together.

Yuan Xi received a call from the secretary's office at the front desk: "Rose?"

The receptionist was very excited on the other end of the phone: "Yes, it is 999 roses. We wanted to send them up to you, but several receptionists couldn't lift them together."

Yuan Xi said: "I'll be down right away."

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan who was standing aside and whispered, "You don't actually need to give me so many roses."

Huo Shiyan said calmly, "I didn't give you roses."

Yuan Xi was stunned: "If it wasn't you who gave it to me? Then who else would give me 999 roses?"
