Chapter 153 - Chapter 153

After Jiang Xun changed into this outfit, her skin appeared even more white and tender, giving it a soft feeling.

 "Did you come by yourself?" Xue Zhou asked.

 "No." Jiang Xun shook her head, "Big Brother Xue, I haven't wished you a happy birthday yet. I brought you a present."

 "What present?" Xue Zhou raised his eyebrows.

 Jiang Xun grabbed a box from her bag and handed it to Xue Zhou, "This, open it when you go back."

 Xue Zhou took it, a little curious, but since Jiang Xun already said so, he couldn't just open it in front of her.

 Xue Zhou's brows furrowed, "Is your health better?"

 Jiang Xun shook her head, "It's still like that, but for the time being, it's fine."

 Jiang Xun's delicate voice made people have a sense of protection.

 Xue Zhou thought of the old Jiang Xun, that little girl who followed him as soon as he came home. The first time he saw her, he felt she was as weak as a porcelain doll, silent and reserved. She only had a beautiful and fine face. Although she became more lively later on, she was still dull and couldn't give him any sense of freshness. So he was kind to her, only because he felt sorry for her and sympathized with her. He treated her as a younger sister who needed to be cared about.

 However, now he felt the feeling Jiang Xun gave him had completely changed, but he couldn't point out where she changed. Xue Zhou felt he might be thinking too much.

 He said, "Last time at the airport, I didn't say hello to you because there were too many reporters. I heard from my sister that you came back for the formalities process and will be leaving soon. Are you planning to stay here now?"

 "En. To begin with, I didn't want to go abroad. So now that I finally returned, I don't plan on leaving." Jiang Xun bit her lip.

 Xue Zhou was a little surprised by Jiang Xun's words. He thought Jiang Xun had gone abroad voluntarily, so why was the version he heard different?

 "How's your time abroad?" Xue Zhou asked.

 Jiang Xun shook her head, "I couldn't get used to it."

 Xue Zhou wanted to ask some more, but Jiang Xun's phone rang.

 Picking up the phone, Jian Xun saw that it was Huo Yuan Ze's call. She answered it in front of Xue Zhou.

 "Uncle Huo."

 Xue Zhou was stunned when he heard Jiang Xun's form of address.

 Over the phone, Huo Yuan Ze asked. "Have you finished changing your clothes?"

 Jiang Xun: "En, finished changing. I'll be up right away."

 Huo Yuan Ze: "En."

 Jiang Xun glanced at Xue Zhou, then whispered to the phone, "I'll see you later."

 After she hung up, Xue Zhou asked her. "Was that Huo Yuan Ze?"

 Jiang Xun nodded, "Yeah."

 Xue Zhou: "You and him… …"

 Jiang Xun lowered her eyes. She answered a little embarrassed, "He is my boyfriend."

 Although Xue Zhou had been mentally prepared, he still showed a surprised expression. He had heard about it a long time ago but he never believed in it. Who knew it was really like this?

 Jiang Xun's bashful appearance was adorable. Seeing her pinkish neck, Xue Zhou suddenly felt a restlessness in his heart.

 "But he's so much older than you, how are you guys?" Xue Zhou couldn't resist asking.

 Jiang Xun seriously replied, "We live in the same community. I met him at the Huo Banquet and then we got together."

 For some reason, Xue Zhou was a little uncomfortable hearing her words. He thought of what the original owner said when she confessed to him.

 Xue Zhou said with some awkwardness, "It's like that… … Then if you're with him, why do you still call him uncle?"

 Jiang Xun seemed to be unaware of the subtle changes in his emotions. She responded naturally, "Because he's old enough to be my uncle ah, it's not like I can't call him big brother."

 Xue Zhou's eyes flashed. Jiang Xun had kept calling him Big Brother Xue, even though he was her uncle in seniority. These few years, she has always called him big brother.

 Didn't this mean that he was different?

 Jiang Xun continued, "I'm about to head up, how about you?"

 "En, I'll head up too." Xue Zhou originally had something else to do, but now he changed his mind.

 The two walked out of the room together to the elevator. As soon as the elevator door opened, Jiang Xun looked up and saw Luo Chi. There was a man standing beside him who looked like his assistant.

 Jiang Xun didn't expect to meet another acquaintance again. Though surprised, she also felt excited at the same time.

 After Luo Chi saw Jiang Xun and Xue Zhou, his indifferent expression became cold and sharp.

 Xue Zhou didn't know that Luo Chi and Jiang Xun knew each other. When Luo Chi previously came to find Jiang Xun, only Xue Yuan saw him. But both of them were film kings and known as the two hottest stars in the entertainment industry. They had cooperated before, so after Xue Zhou saw Luo Chi, his attitude was still good. He took the initiative to greet him, "Luo Chi."

 Luo Chi's expression was stiff as he nodded coldly.

 "I thought you wouldn't come today, weren't you still filming in H City a few days ago?" Xue Zhou made small talk.

 Luo Chi: "Finished filming the day before yesterday, I came to find someone and just decided to join in the fun."

 "Let me introduce you, this is my younger sister— Jiang Xun."

 "I've seen her before. Her new song, I listened to it, it's very nice." Luo Chi stared straight at Jiang Xun, making Jiang Xun unable to avoid it.

 Standing in the corner of the elevator, Jiang Xun felt a strong tension in the elevator.

 "The new song is very nice, I've also listened to it. The results are pretty decent too. I heard there's a new album coming, about when will it be released?" Xue Zhou turned to Jiang Xun.

 Jiang Xun felt two lines of gazes. Before she could speak, she heard the jingle and the elevator reached the top floor.

 As soon as the elevator door opened, Jiang Xun felt a rush of chilly air, wrapping her up like a glacier. His clammy eyes turned into an icy rain that poured on her.

 Huo Yuan Ze stood at the door, calmly looking at them with a sullen face.

 "Uncle Huo… …" Jiang Xun trembled as she observed Huo Yuan Ze in fear.

 Huo Yuan Ze didn't even look at Luo Chi and Xue Zhou. He only said coldly. "Why did you take so long?"

 His voice was completely different from before, cold to the point of intimidating.

 "I met Big Brother Xue, so we conversed some before coming up." Jiang Xun wasn't afraid of death at all. She was already so willful that she was still cheeky even when playing with fire. 

 Both Luo Chi and Xue Zhou knew Huo Yuan Ze. The legends of the Huo Group have been reported on various financial magazines and television, especially Huo Yuan Ze, this most eligible bachelor, who has been single for many years without any scandals.

 Moreover, Ju Xing Sheng Shi is also incredibly famous in the entertainment circle. It has housed countless popular little flowers and idols. A few years ago, it also supported a film king, only later he retreated behind the screen.

 The Ming Entertainment Company, Xie Zhou was currently at, could be mentioned together with Ju Xing Sheng Shi, but Luo Chi's company was relatively small. Luo Chi staying there was also to repay the company's kindness. Yet, this cannot affect these big-name celebrities' pursuit and flattery of Huo Yuan Ze.

 "President Huo" Xue Zhou's tone was polite. He had a better attitude when he saw Huo Yuan Ze before, but today, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable and didn't want to lose momentum in front of Huo Yuan Ze.

 When Luo Chi saw Huo Yuan Ze, his expression was extremely surprised. He knew Jiang Xun had a boyfriend, but he never expected it would be Huo Yuan Ze, who was already thirty years old. This age difference was simply too big.

 To Huo Yuan Ze, Jiang Xun was just a child.

 After Jiang Xun said the three words, Big Brother Xue, Huo Yuan Ze's face obviously became gloomy. Jiang Xun was startled by the frigid temperament on his body. She quickly walked over and approached Huo Yuan Ze.

 "Uncle Huo! Have you waited a long time?" Although Jiang Xun's voice was coyish, it wasn't pretentious.

 Seeing Jiang Xun and Huo Yuan Ze being this close, Luo Chi's expression became ugly again while Xue Zhou also avoided looking at them.
