Chapter 4
As soon as Huo Chi left, Huo's father looked nervously at Mr. Huo. He frowned and disagreed with this proposal very much.
"Dad."
Mr. Huo raised his eyes and gave him a look.
Huo's father paused for a while, but still couldn't hold back and said, "When the Tang family brought it up, couldn't we let Aze go there? Why let Huo Chi, and that condition——"
Don't say anything later, Mr. Huo also understand.
He was silent for a moment, looked at his son and shook his head.
"Hey."
Father Huo listened, his heart tightened.
Mr. Huo said lightly: "After so many years, I still haven't learned anything."
Father Huo's expression froze, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face.
"Dad!"
Mr. Huo didn't speak any more, and motioned to the housekeeper behind him to push him back to his room to rest.
Father Huo stared closely and followed.
After a while, the butler came out.
Huo's father went up to meet him, and didn't quite understand: "What does my dad mean?" The
housekeeper looked at him and whispered: "Miss Tang family just wants a playmate." He paused for a moment and hinted: "There's nothing to care about the sudden thoughts of the eldest miss." From the
beginning to the end, the reason why Mr. Huo agreed so readily was that the eldest lady said that she wanted a playmate to accompany her to and from school, and not friend.
Playmates - There are many in these wealthy families.
Help pick up the ball when you play, help in disaster relief when there is an accident, and receive a reward from the eldest lady if you have something delicious...
A playmate who is similar to a dog, what is there to care about.
As long as you can please Miss Tang, let alone one playmate, ten are not a problem.
What's more... As far as these "regular blood" people are concerned, they never worry that people born like Tang Tang will really have anything to Huo Chi.
This is nothing more than seeing Huo Chi being pitiful at school, and his sympathy was overflowing for a while, so why should he care.
In a month at the longest, the eldest should be bored, and then... Huo Chi's reputation will be even worse.
The psychological blow to him will be even greater.
Now let him negotiate the conditions, nothing more than to give him a heavier blow, so that he can no longer get up.
Father Huo was instantly clicked.
A smug smile flashed in his eyes, and he patted the butler's shoulder: "No wonder." The
butler nodded, "If there is nothing else, I'll go in."
Father Huo nodded. After getting the answer, he was instantly relieved.
"Go, let's go, it's hard work." The
butler said nothing, bowed his head and agreed.
After returning to the room, Mr. Huo lifted his eyelids and looked at him: "It's clear."
"Yes." The
housekeeper was puzzled: "Master, why didn't you tell him in person?" Mr.
Huo sighed helplessly, looked out the window and said, "I'm smart. In my whole life, I never thought of giving birth to such an uneducated son."
He said, "I don't worry about handing over the business of the Huo family to him in the future." The
housekeeper listened without saying a word.
Suddenly, he thought of the boy who lived in the small house. He was obviously thin and frail, but his eyes were frighteningly heavy. When he stood in front of him, he seemed to be able to see through all your thoughts at a glance.
more than adults.
Once he has the opportunity to grow savagely, he must be an uncontrolled wolf in the future.
Thinking about it, the butler shuddered.
Huo Chi moved to the Tang family that night.
It was sent by the Huo family in person. It was not Tang Tang who came to pick up Huo Chi, but a servant of the Tang family.
It seemed that Huo Chi was really regarded as a playmate.
After the Huo family sent him back to report, Mr. Huo's slightly uncertain heart gradually settled down.
You're right, it's a "playmate".
When Huo Chi arrived, Tang Tang was doing his homework.
She was afraid that the Huo family would care, so she didn't go down. When Aunt Chen came to call her, Tang Tang quickly walked out.
"Arrived?"
Aunt Chen nodded: "Go and have a look?"
Tang Tang's feet just stepped out, and after thinking for a while, she took it back: "Aunt Chen, will it seem too deliberate for me to do this?
Aunt Chen raised her eyebrows and looked at her: "What is too deliberate?" Tang
Tang said: "I asked my father's assistant to tell the Huo family that I just need a playmate to go to and from school, Huo Chi must have misunderstood?"
Aunt Chen With a low smile, he said softly: "Not necessarily, what if that child Huo Chi wants to see you?"
Hearing this, Tang Tang shook his head without hesitation: "Impossible."
Huo Chi would never want to see him .
She pondered for a while, then turned to look at Aunt Chen: "I won't go to see Huo Chi, Aunt Chen, cook him a bowl of noodles, he must not have eaten, I will go back to the room to do my homework."
Aunt Chen was helpless, but She also followed her: "Okay, then Aunt Chen will go take a look and tell you?"
"Okay."
Tang Tang thought, she really wanted to save Huo Chi.
In fact, the most important thing to do is to change the environment for Huo Chi first. If he stays in a place like Huo's family, Huo Chi's psychology will be distorted and abnormal.
Although it may be a little late, there is still a chance, and Tang Tang doesn't want to give up.
Although she came in accidentally, and she did have a subjective mission, but looking at Huo Chi, even if Tang Tang had no mission requirements, she would still want to save him.
A smart person like Huo Chi should not be ruined by the Huo family.
...
Huo Chi entered Tang's house and was taken to a building.
It's not the one in the middle, it's the one next door, but it looks similar from the outside.
The Tang family covers a large area, and the houses are scattered in an orderly manner, which is particularly conspicuous.
This blockbuster belongs to the Tang family.
The person who brought Huo Chi was called Xiao Wang, a servant of the Tang family.
When he saw Huo Chi, there was no hidden emotion in his eyes, he was very clean, he didn't feel disgusted, and he didn't think he was unclean.
Huo Chi was actually very uncomfortable with this feeling.
From the time he was sensible, he seldom saw this emotion in the eyes of those who knew his identity.
Except that person.
His Adam's apple rolled up and down, as if she met her that day.
Although cold, there is no disgust and no nausea.
Xiao Wang took Huo Chi into the room, and said in a low voice, "Huo Chi, this will be your room in the future. You can tell me anything you need at any time."
Huo Chi looked at the bright and spacious room in front of him, looking at the decorations, his eyes She blinked slightly: "Thank you."
Xiao Wang said: "It's all arranged by the lady, you're welcome, what are you missing, tell me, by the way, have you eaten yet?"
"Have you eaten."
Xiao Wang glanced at him and thought. After thinking about it: "Want to stop eating? You look too thin. When I was seventeen or eighteen, I already weighed one hundred and thirty pounds. Do you have one hundred pounds now?"
Huo Chi: "... "
He listened to this, and there was a trace of unknown emotion in his eyes.
"Yes." Huo Chi said in a low voice, "No need, thank you."
Xiao Wang listened without reluctance.
"Okay, then I'll go first. You wash up and rest early."
Huo Chi looked at him and suddenly shouted, "Wait."
"What's wrong?"
Huo Chi swallowed, and he could see that he was a little nervous and cramped. , with his hands hanging on his sides, his fingers moved slightly against the seam of his trousers.
He asked in a low voice, "...Is there anything else to pay attention to?"
Xiao Wang was stunned, not quite understanding what he meant.
"What else?"
Huo Chi was a little hard to say, and after a moment of silence he said, "Is there no rule?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wang reacted.
He looked at the boy in front of him in astonishment, a little helpless.
Although the lady had told him before that he had a strong self-esteem and suffered a lot, but he never thought... The Huo family still has such a broken rule? !
What is it like to torture a healthy child!
"No."
He thought about Tang Tang's instructions, and told him word by word: "Miss said, she actually invited you to be a guest at home, you are a guest, do what you want, go wherever you want, You can go to the yard or their building."
Huo Chi seemed to be in disbelief, a flash of surprise in his eyes, but it was quickly covered up by other expressions.
His eyelashes moved, and he looked down at the ground slightly.
"I see, thank you."
Xiao Wang waved his hand: "You're welcome, then I'll go first. There's my phone in the room, call me if you have anything."
"Okay."
That night, Huo Chi also accepted a bowl of Chen Noodles from my aunt.
There were new clothes in the closet of the room, pajamas and daily wear, but Huo Chi didn't touch it.
After taking a shower, he lay on the bed in his white pajamas with the lights off.
There is a large balcony in the room, and there is a window on the other side. When lying down, you can see the stars shining in the night sky.
The quilt was new and still smelled a little bit of sunshine.
Huo Chi hasn't slept in such a clean place for a long time. At first... he was still vigilant and didn't dare to fall asleep.
At the back, he couldn't hold it anymore, and Huo Chi couldn't bear the drowsiness and fell into a deep sleep.
When he woke up the next morning, Huo Chi was still a little confused.
He always thought... that he was dreaming.
He reached out and grabbed the quilt in front of him, feeling the warmth from the quilt, his eyes trembled slightly.
When Huo Chi packed up and just opened the door, Tang Tang just stretched out his hand to knock on the door.
The two looked up.
Before he could react, the person in front of him greeted him first.
"Morning."
Tang Tang looked at Huo Chi: "Did you sleep well?"
Huo Chi looked at her fixedly.
Tang Tang was able to hold on at first, but when he looked at him like this from the back, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
But she remembered her personality. She is now the richest daughter, a veritable eldest lady, and she can't be too stupid.
"Let's go."
Tang Tang retracted his gaze, and said lightly, "Eat breakfast with me."
Huo Chi didn't move.
Tang Tang glanced at him secretly, and was caught by Huo Chi inadvertently.
She cleared her throat, embarrassed before her eyes.
"Don't forget that you are here to accompany me to and from school." Tang Tang didn't say the word "playmate", which hurts a little bit of self-esteem.
Huo Chi held the doorknob with his hand and stopped on it for a moment before he answered in a deep voice, "No."
Hearing this, Tang Tang glanced at him brightly.
At this moment, Tang Tang was like that distant star, dazzling and dazzling, making it impossible to ignore.
Tang Tang's parents are not at home these days. They are busy with work and seldom accompany her.
But as long as Tang Tang wanted, both of them agreed unconditionally.
It was like she wanted Huo Chi as a playmate, and after asking for a reason, she asked Tang Tang to come back directly.
After all, Aunt Chen was the one who accompanied Tang Tang the longest.
After breakfast, the two set off to school one after the other.
Playmates need to look like playmates, at least so far, Huo Chi can't ride in the same car with Tang Tang.
His car was arranged behind Tang Tang's car, but it was also delivered by the Tang family himself.
Last night, Huo Chi was called by Tang Tang to be a playmate, and it spread among the wealthy circle.
Many people didn't believe it, and it was only when they watched the two get out of the car in tandem in the morning that they realized it was true.
No kidding.
Huo Chi really became Miss Tang's playmate.
Many people watched with ridicule in their eyes.
But after the ridicule, there was more envy.
Even as a playmate, being able to be with Tang Tang is equivalent to climbing up the Tang family... In fact, it is worthwhile to do the math.
Of course, some people don't think so.
Huo Chi never cared about what others said, and when everyone pointed at him, he never heard or saw him. His indifference and isolation had become a habit.
But Tang Tang can't.
The incident happened on the third day after Huo Chi arrived at Tang's house.
This day is Friday. After two classes in the afternoon, the last class is a free activity class.
Those who have activities participate in the activities, and those who do not can go home early.
Tang Tang has a hobby and likes to play tennis.
Every Friday afternoon, she would play tennis with her classmates before going home.
After being transferred to Class 12 these days, Tang Tang and Xu Miaomiao had a good relationship, so they made an appointment to change clothes and play tennis.
When leaving, she also said something to Huo Chi by the way.
"Huo Chi, are you going to play tennis?"
Huo Chi glanced at her.
Tang Tang rolled her eyes and smiled, and asked softly, "Would you like to go with us?"
Huo Chi didn't say a word, but stood up.
Seeing Tang Tang was a little helpless, he seemed to be forcing him.
After thinking about it, she hurriedly said: "Forget it, don't go, you can just read in the classroom and call you when I get home."
Huo Chi's fingers grabbed the textbook unconsciously, and whispered: "No need."
"Ah?"
"I can go."
Hearing this, Tang Tang didn't think much about it and nodded, "Let's go together then."
But Tang Tang didn't expect that Huo Ze and others would be at the meeting. tennis court.
When he saw her, Huo Ze took the initiative to say hello.
"Tang Tang, do you want to fight together?"
"No."
Tang Tang's voice was cold: "I'll fight with Miaomiao."
Huo Ze didn't force it.
He glanced at Huo Chi, who was standing next to Tang Tang, and smiled, "Then Huo Chi, do you want to fight with us?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people behind Huo Ze burst into laughter.
Someone ridiculed: "Brother Ze, how could Huo Chi play tennis?"
"Brother Ze, Huo Chi came here to pick up the ball for Tang Tang."
"Yes, yes. Isn't he Tang Tang's current playmate? , right Tang Tang."
No one took Tang Tang's words a few days ago when he said he wanted to protect Huo Chi.
Especially after these two days of observation, they didn't find that Tang Tang was very special to Huo Chi. Apart from going to school and eating together, there was no other communication.
It looks like a playmate that I really want to have on a whim.
Listening to the mocking smiles of these people, Tang Tang raised her eyes and smiled, "Yes."
Her response made several people around him stunned.
In an instant, they laughed again.
Tang Tang smiled and said with a slight smile: "Huo Chi is at least my playmate, how about you?" She smiled and said, "You follow Master Huo, are you his lackey
or what?"
The face of the person next to Ze suddenly turned ugly.
"Tang Tang
, you—" She raised her chin and looked at the group of people in front of her with a proud look. It seems that it is born with its own aura, and no one can shake it.
"What am I?"
She glanced coldly at the group of people, then turned to look at Huo Chi, her attitude was as cold as ever, but her words were much more pleasant.
"Huo Chi, sit next to you for a while, I'll just fight with Miaomiao."
Huo Chi walked over to the rest area next to him.
After watching Huo Chi leave, the others didn't dare to overdo it in front of Tang Tang.
However, when Tang Tang and Xu Miaomiao fought for a while, Xu Miaomiao suddenly let out a cry.
"Tang Tang."
"Ah?"
Xu Miaomiao shouted, "Look over there."
Tang Tang looked in the direction she was pointing, and there were bursts of laughter not far away.
"Ah Huo Chi, I'm sorry, I played tennis for the first time today, and I couldn't aim correctly."
"Huo Chi, are you alright, it's my first time playing tennis."
"Yeah! I'm sorry, I hit you again. ."
Huo Chi sat in the rest area designated by Tang Tang, as if the balls fell on him without feeling anything.
Nothing but his hand on his lap betrayed his emotions.
Tang Tang's eyelids jumped as he listened to the conversation next door.
She half-squinted her eyes, looking at the person who was not far away with a hostile look, she couldn't bear it anymore.
She happened to have a ball in her hand, she sneered, looked at the person diagonally opposite, threw it in the air without hesitation, and slapped it out with a tennis racket.
"Ah!"
There was a cry of pain on the field.
The man covered his head and was about to raise his head to curse, but after meeting Tang Tang's "I hit you" eyes, he immediately retracted his words.
"Tang Tang."
He asked, "Is that the one you played just now?"
Tang Tang smiled: "Yeah, I'm sorry."
Having said that, there was no apologetic expression on her face: "I haven't played for a long time, I didn't find the feel, and I didn't aim at the direction."
The man: ...
you aimed too accurately! You said you didn't aim!
But he didn't dare to say it, so he could only say: "Okay, I understand."
Seeing Tang Tang like this, others didn't dare to openly provoke Huo Chi.
They are afraid that the next person to be beaten in the head will be themselves.
Tang Tang said "um" and turned to look to the other side: "Huo Chi. Come here."
Huo Chi got up and walked towards Tang Tang.
Tang Tang said, "I'll teach you how to play."
Huo Chi looked at her quietly.
Tang Tang said calmly: "How is it?"
Huo Chi lowered his eyes slightly, looking at her current appearance. Tang Tang leaned a little closer to Huo Chi, and the scent of jasmine perfume drifted away from her.
It smells good.
But smelling too much can get addictive.
Huo Chi turned his head slightly and replied, "As you like."
Tang Tang smiled: "Come on, take this." She put the racket in Huo Chi's hand and bent over to pick up a ball , leaning into Huo Chi's ear and pressing her voice, "Later, just shoot diagonally across from it, let them have a taste of being hit by the ball."
After speaking, she confronted Huo Chi's A slightly contemptuous look.
Tang Tang paused, touched her nose and said, "Why, do you think my behavior is naive?"
Huo Chi took his eyes away from her face and said in a low voice, "No."
Tang Tang smiled: "Then Call me over there, and I'll be responsible for the accident."
"No."
"Ah?"
Huo Chi hardly said a few more words, and a trace of cruelty flashed in the blocked eyes: "You are not responsible."
After finishing speaking, Huo Chi took the ball in Tang Tang's hand, threw it in the air, and swiped it as hard as she did just now.
Tang Tang rolled his eyes and watched as the ball "rammed" towards the other side in a straight line.
It even wiped a boy's ear, hit the net firmly, and rolled to the ground.
This ball caused many people to exclaim and take a breath.
Huo Chi's tennis skills... so good? !
The author has something to say: Our Chi Chi will become an overbearing president!
make a fist! (Chi Chi: I can!
Tang Tang: I believe in you!
