CEO is Picky but Handsome - Chapter 21

The cup in Huo Zhun’s hand paused.
He looks at Ye Ling as if he’s been told the truth.
“A feeling of fondness over time is human nature. When you say that it doesn’t matter how Miss Mu feels about you, it’s evident that either you don’t care if Miss Mu has her heart set on you or not, or you know that she is bound to have her heart set on you. The so-called agreement is just a back way for yourself when you know the outcome.” Vodka paired with a strong cocktail, Ye Ling should have been drunk, yet his gaze was bright and sharp, very different from his usual subtlety, “When you spoiled her, her moving on was the icing on the cake, and when you’re tired of her, all the feelings she has for you are just excuses for you to use to talk about breaking up.”
“Who do I want to break up with that I still need to find an excuse?” Huo Jun laughs in disbelief.
“Then Huo Xiaoming is your son, would you be unable to swing it?” Ye Ling asks rhetorically.
Huo Zhun’s bluff smile comes to an abrupt end.
Although Ye Ling is usually careful with his words, as if he is very bad with words, Huo Zhun knows that when Ye Ling gets serious, an idle person is no match for him. Other than that, his performance during the directors’ meeting was evident.
Tonight, Ye Ling seems to be more than just a smooth talker.
He looks at Ye Ling, and in a trance, it’s like he’s seeing the person who stood under the eaves when they first met and gave him a mocking gaze through the rain curtain.
“Maybe President Huo is used to being a good guy and is not willing to take on the reputation of being a Chen Shimei; maybe President Huo is a womanizer and says he loves today, but changes his mind tomorrow; or maybe President Huo is experienced enough to know that Ms. Mu will be a trouble sooner or later, so he might as well throw it away sooner rather than later.” Ye Ling tilts his head back and drinks it all, a little bit of flushing spreads from his cheeks, “Who knows.”
“Since you’re so smart, why don’t you take a guess?” Huo Zhun pushes the wine glass away, and although his tone is full of teasing, a hint of sternness flashes under his eyes.
I don’t know if Ye Ling is really drunk or fake drunk, obviously just now she was bold enough to poke Huo Zhun straight in the heart, but now she is timid, waving her hand back and forth, “How can I dare to guess what you are thinking, you are my boss, paying me a salary, if I piss you off, my son and I won’t even be able to eat tomorrow.”
As if you were merciful just now.
Huo Zhun pretends to be generous, “It’s okay, we’re sitting here tonight as friends, it has nothing to do with work.”
Ye Ling raises his head as if inspecting his sincerity, carefully looking his expression over and over. Huo Zhun is intent on latching on to his words and doesn’t avoid his gaze at all, instead looking back frankly.
The two men’s gazes met in an electric flash, and after a long time, Ye Ling suddenly laughed.
“Unfortunately, I really can’t guess.” Ye Ling said, “I only know that you have become accustomed to calculating others, feelings such things can be step by step. It seems to outsiders that it’s Mu Suixi who is entangled with you, but in reality you’re the one who is reaping the benefits, and both sides fall in favor. But Mr. Huo, by making such a pact with someone else, are you certain that you won’t be the one to move on first?”
Huo Jun’s shoulders stiffened imperceptibly.
Indeed, no matter what Huo Jun’s purpose was in making such an agreement, the premise was that Huo Jun would never move his heart.
He also believed that he would never move his heart towards anyone.
In Huo Jun’s thirty years of life so far, he had never moved his heart towards anyone. Even in the face of Xu Yingchen’s relentless pursuit, he was only touched, but failed to develop the slightest bit of what could be called “love”. Huo Jun doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with this; on the contrary, he grew up in the slums and has seen more than his fair share of the consequences of a moment’s weakness, so he feels that not being moved is the same as having no weaknesses at all.
Is that bad?
He thought countless times, compared to those people who suffer from the pain of lovesickness for love, it is better to be as free and easy as himself. He has been living like this for thirty-five years, and is willing to continue to live like this for thirty-five years.
And what’s it to you?
At this moment, harboring years of hidden secrets that were not known to be spread out unexpectedly, originally thought that a lifetime will not be perceived by people’s mind is also probed, Huo Jun no longer have the mood of condescension, his face completely sunk down.
“What about you?” He sneers, “Wouldn’t you normally rather say less than say the wrong thing? How come you can’t hold your tongue so much tonight?”
Although Ye Ling was going back and forth with him, the wine in his hand didn’t stop at all. He drank it dry, filled it up, drank it dry again, and filled it up again. I don’t know how many cups went down, but he was already drunk. Huo Zhun’s attention was only focused on what he said, but he didn’t realize that Ye Ling’s last question had a muddled voice and his tongue couldn’t even be straightened out.
So naturally, no one answered his question, and not only did no one answer, Ye Ling’s head bobbed twice, and he even dryly flopped down on the bar and fell asleep.

Huo Zhun this full of indignation yo, simply like that absolute dam, hate to drown this person in front of him.
Unfortunately, he was just about to kill and kill, when the bartender slipped over.
“I was just about to ask,” the bartender pointed at the unconscious Ye Ling, “Are you switching to boyfriends now?”
“Scram!” Huo Zhun roars, “I’m straight!”
“Come on.” The bartender slanted him with contempt, “There’s a Brokeback Mountain in everyone’s heart.”
Later, Huo Jun drags Ye Ling back to the hotel alone.
The people at the bar refused to lend a hand, they even gloated and wished him a pleasant night. If it wasn’t for the fact that Huo Jun was holding Ye Ling with one hand, he simply wanted to rush up and give them two kicks each.But that said, Ye Ling looked at the body without two two meat, how to embrace in the arms so heavy ……
under the dim street lamp, Huo Zhun racked Ye Ling’s shoulders, lamenting.
If I had known that his capacity for alcohol was so poor, why did I ask him to drink?
Drunk people, their bodies are heavier than when they are sober. What’s more, Ye Ling’s body is so limp that expecting him to stand up straight on his own is a no-brainer. One second, Huo Jun just wrapped his arm around his waist to hold him upright, and the next second, he crooked himself on Huo Jun’s shoulder.
This is repeated three or four times, out of the distance is not ten meters away, Huo Zhun is also to the knee.
He wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, hesitated for three minutes between dragging Ye Ling back to the hotel like a dead pig and carrying him back to the hotel, and chose the latter.
Nonsense, as careful as he was, he knew that dragging someone across two streets was inhumane.
Huo Zhun carefully leans Ye Ling’s back against the pole, holding his shoulders with one hand and wrapping one hand around his waist as he tries to bow down and carry him by the waist. However, as soon as he owed his body, he was embraced by a pair of arms.
“Brother Sheng …… I really can’t drink anymore ……”
Ye Ling murmured, gently wrapping his arms around his neck. That voice with drunkenness seems to be angry and smiling, with a strong sense of petulance, as if Huo Zhun is someone he is extremely close to.
Huo Zhun has known Ye Ling until now, and has always thought that Ye Ling is a calm and collected person, how has he ever heard him speak in such a voice tone?
That owning movement, without realizing it, froze.
“What did you say?” Only after a while did he straighten up and asked in a soft voice, “What did you say, I didn’t hear you.”
Ye Ling reluctantly raised her head and gently opened her eyes. Fine hair swings in front of his eyes, covering his slightly confused and fragile gaze. He stared blankly at Huo Zhun, gradually his eyes reddened, and he actually fell into tears for no reason.
“Brother Sheng, I’m sorry ……”
The tears came surging and suddenly, but in a few moments, they were already falling like rain. Huo Jun never expected that Ye Ling, who usually seemed such a calm and collected person, would cry like a helpless and disoriented child.
“Brother Sheng, I’m sorry …… I can’t help it …… Brother Sheng ……”
He gradually cried himself out of power, his limp body was unable to support him and slid down. Huo Zhun was originally still supporting his body, but at this moment, he couldn’t help himself, committing to the ground with him.
“It’s okay, don’t be afraid ……”
Huo Jun reaches out and wraps his arm around his shoulder, and Ye Ling leans over obediently, as if he’s done this one action many times before.
“Don’t cry, it’s okay, I’m here …… Don’t feel bad ……”
Poor Huo Zhun isn’t good at coaxing people at all, so he has to take out Huo Xiaoming’s tricks to coax Ye Ling. However how can Ye Ling be the same as Huo Xiaoming. Huo Xiaoming cried out in pain, but because of the simple reason of losing a toy, but Ye Ling’s tears had pain and fear, and every plea was like a steel needle in Huo Jun’s heart.
At that instant, Huo Jun suddenly has a strong feeling.
Tonight, Ye Ling’s sharpness and demeanor must have something to do with the “Brother Sheng” in his mouth!
He must find out who Brother Sheng is!
At 2:15 in the morning, at a resort on the outskirts of the city, Huo Ming’s cell phone rang without warning.
Who is this in the middle of the night? Can’t you see that Mr. Huo is playing a game? He was playing a game, and was not distracted by the critical stage of fighting the BOSS!
Huo Xiaoming swept a glance at the two words that jumped on the screen, ignoring them, and continued to fight against the fluorescent screen.
However, the person on the other end of the phone is as if they won’t stop until they get a response from him, and hesitates to hang up. Huo Xiaoming pressed the buttons on the handle while restraining himself from glancing at the cell phone on the side.
It’s so late, what’s he calling for?
Asking about homework? If you want to ask, you should ask him yourself. Having a nightmare? Then why didn’t he look for his dad. Chatting with you? Crazy, what time is it?
Huo Xiaoming pouted and decided to ignore him.
But I don’t know how, the BOSS in front of me all changed shape, full of screen shaking around, surprisingly are the same familiar face.
Could it be …… that a thief has entered his house?
Huo Xiaoming s wrist suddenly shook.
Could it be that his house has been burglarized and he is asking for help?Or perhaps it was something ……
more frightening than a thiefHuo Xiaoming remembered the fairy tale book he had read during the day.
The one-eyed dragon hovered over the city, and the fire he spat out burned down all the houses in the city ……
“Ah!” Huo Xiaoming exclaimed, dropping the handle and lunging towards the phone.
It was a close call, and a second before the phone hung up, he received it.
“Hey, Rui Rui, how are you? Are you okay?” Huo Xiaoming asked loudly.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for three seconds, it was these three seconds that were driving Huo Xiaoming crazy.
Then a weak voice came from the other end, “I …… I’m pretty good. Huo Ming, are you asleep?”
“No no.” Huo Xiaoming climbs up from the carpet, runs to the window in a few steps, pulls open the heavy curtains, and looks out in Ye Rui’s direction – fortunately, there’s no gargoyle there, and there’s no rushing fire, “What’s wrong? What happened?”
Ye Rui’s voice paused, then, took on a sobbing tone, “Huo Ming, my father is missing.”
