C2628 The Atmosphere Was Subtle.
"Are you going to buy it today?" Chi Yi asked.
"Yeah, otherwise, it would be gone. Many people want to buy it."
"Miss Huo, do you want to consider it?"
"Consider what?" Huo Yan didn't want to think about it anymore. She lived in Jiang Ci's house every day, and she had to move out as soon as possible.
"You... you don't have any money, right?"
Chi Yi smiled, "It's not like that. Wait for me for a moment, I'll go and help you with the procedures."
Huo Yan said, "No need, I can do it myself. You... just transfer the money to me. I'll contact my brother later and ask him to give it to you."
"It's better if I go over. Young Master gave me this task, how can I not do it? Let's not talk about it for now. Wait for me for a moment, I'll be there soon."
"Alright then."
Huo Yan hung up the phone and waited quietly. However, before Chi Yi could arrive, the intermediary came over with an apologetic expression and said, "Sorry, Miss, I'm afraid we can't do the procedures today."
"Why?"
"The owner suddenly stopped selling and said that he was going to live with a friend."
"... Then what about the other two?"
"These two are owned by the same owner. He said that he won't sell them."
Huo Yan, "..."
After a while, Chi Yi rushed over.
"Miss Huo, I'm here."
Huo Yan stood at the entrance of the agency and stared at him without blinking, her eyes full of suspicion.
"You... Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Chi Yi." Huo Yan said, "Are you playing tricks?"
"Hmm? Playing tricks? Miss, what are you talking about?"
"There was clearly a house, but you told me that there was no one. I just saw a house that I liked, and the owner said that he would not sell it. This is too much of a coincidence!"
"Uh... Actually, there are many things in this world that are just so coincidental. Otherwise, why would it be called a coincidence?"
Three lines of black lines suddenly appeared on Huo Yan's forehead. "Do you think I'm stupid?"
Chi Yi immediately said, "I don't dare to."
After a few seconds, Huo Yan said, "Chi Yi, I know what you mean, but... it's useless."
Seeing that the girl had already guessed everything, Chi Yi stopped pretending. He sighed lightly, "Miss Huo, do you really not like Young Master at all? Young Master is a little cold, but he is still very good to you."
"I..." Huo Yan pursed her lips. "He only thinks of me as his sister, and I... also think of him as his brother. Chi Yi, don't make such a mess."
"I understand. I'm sorry, Miss Huo. I was selfish. It is indeed unfair to you."
"It's not that I feel wronged," Huo Yan said, "it's just that... there's no way to force relationships."
If Jiang Ci was willing to be with her, she would be more than willing, but she knew that Jiang Ci would not be willing.
If he knew what she was thinking, he would only get further and further away from her.
This was enough for now.
It was enough.
"I understand," Chi Yi said, "I did do it on purpose for the house. I'm sorry, Miss Huo, but don't worry, I will take care of it as soon as possible. Give me a week, and I will give you a satisfactory answer."
"Do you mean that I can move into the new house in a week?"
"Yes."
"Alright, Chi Yi, thank you."
"Miss Huo, I still want to ask you one more time."
"What?"
"Is Young Master really not attractive to you at all? Don't you like him at all? Not even a little bit?"
After two seconds, Huo Yan shook her head, "No."
Chi Yi sighed lightly, "Alright. Then I'll send you back to school first. I'll take care of the rest. Don't worry, nothing will go wrong."
"I'll go back myself. It's very close."
When Huo Yan returned to school, Chi Yi's words kept echoing in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She suddenly shook her head and told herself not to think about it anymore. She just had to live her life like this.
The future was in the hands of the future.
After a while, Huo Fei called back.
Huo Yan picked up the phone, "Hello, brother."
"Why are you calling me?" Huo Fei asked.
"I was looking at the new apartment. I don't have enough money."
"The new apartment? Isn't Chi Yi in charge of it?"
"Uh... yes, but I'm also looking at it. I just picked up a unit. Chi Yi has already come over. He will be done as soon as possible. You can give him the money."
Huo Fei said, "Do I need you to remind me?"
Huo Yan coughed lightly, "I have to go to class. I'll hang up first."
Time passed by in the blink of an eye.
Huo Yan returned to the villa.
Jiang Ci also came back at the same time. The two of them got out of the car at the same time.
Looking at the man's handsome face, Huo Yan said softly, "Congratulations, Mr. Ci."
"Yes." Jiang Ci replied, then asked, "Has the house been settled?"
"Yes, Chi Yi will be done as soon as possible. It will be done in about a week." After pausing for a moment, Huo Yan continued, "Mr. Ci, I have disturbed you during this period of time."
Jiang Ci looked at the girl. He, who rarely spoke, suddenly went against his usual self and said, "You come out early and go home late every day. When you come back, you lock yourself in your room. How can you disturb me?"
Hearing that, Huo Yan was suddenly stunned.
Jiang Ci continued, "Don't say such things in the future. Although I'm not your biological brother, I have watched you grow up, so I won't be so estranged, right?"
"I... I didn't mean that." Huo Yan explained, "I know you don't like others getting close to you."
"You are not someone else. You are different from those other women. And I was the one who asked you to come."
Huo Yan pursed her lips and suddenly did not know what to say. She nodded and said, "Okay, I... I understand."
Jiang Ci did not say anything else and walked towards the villa.
Huo Yan immediately followed him. Because she was following him closely, she did not notice that Jiang Ci had suddenly stopped and bumped into his back.
Realizing what she had done, she immediately took two steps back and said awkwardly, "Sorry."
Jiang Ci turned around and looked at her, saying indifferently, "It's fine."
"Did I hurt you?" Huo Yan asked.
"Does your head hurt?"
Huo Yan raised her hand and touched her forehead. "It's okay."
Jiang Ci suddenly laughed.
After returning to the room, Huo Yan lay on the bed gloomily. What did Jiang Ci's smile mean?
Was he laughing at her stupidity?
Every time she faced Jiang Ci, her brain would always be half a beat slower. The more she thought about her previous appearance, the more she felt that she was stupid. Jiang Ci must be laughing at her, so much so that she did not even want to go downstairs to eat dinner.
But thinking about it, even if she did not eat, the baby in her stomach would still eat. So she got up and went downstairs.
