"What happened?" Huo Xu frowned, his voice still calm.

"I worked part-time at the Christine Cafe in the Central Mall on North Street. I encountered a few difficult customers who framed me for stealing money. I really didn't take their wallets! But no matter how I explained them, they didn't believe me, and they even said they would call the police."

The more Cheng Cheng spoke, the more excited he became, his voice was choked and intermittent, as if he really had nowhere to go.

Huo Xu frowned, "Did you call your brother?"

"I don't dare to disturb him now, because he has already learned a lesson from what happened last time... Are you... is it convenient for you? If it's not convenient..."

"Send me a location, I'll go there now."

Huo Xu dropped this sentence in a deep voice, hung up the phone, picked up the car keys, and turned to go out.

The butler pouted.

It was a coincidence that this call came, whether it was early or late, it happened to be at this time.

Christine's Cafe.

When Huo Xu opened the door and walked in, the assistant had settled the difficult customer, called the surveillance, and even hired a lawyer.

Seeing that there was such a big force behind Yu Chengcheng, a small waiter, the other party was so scared that he didn't dare to pester him anymore. Instead, he paid the apology fee and ran away.

"Huo Xu..."

A weak and pitiful voice came, and Huo Xu's waist tightened, and he was hugged from behind.

His body stiffened instinctively for a second, and he realized who it was who was hugging him.

"The matter has been dealt with." Huo Xu's tone was businesslike, and he stretched out his hand to push Yu Chengcheng away without showing any trace, keeping a certain distance.

Yu Chengcheng wiped his tears and seemed to feel ashamed, "I'm sorry, I was rude. You helped me so much this time. I really don't know how to thank you. May I treat you to afternoon tea?"

Huo Xu's expression changed slightly, but his black phoenix eyes darkened.

But Yu Ruanruan's cute and flattering face flashed unconsciously in his mind.

At this time, the woman's forehead should also be changed.

"I won't drink coffee."

Huo Xu said in a deep voice, "I will ask someone to help you resign from this job. You are still a student, and everything is based on your studies. If you need money, you can come to me."

"Huo Xu!" Seeing that the man turned to leave, Yu Chengcheng immediately reached out and grabbed his sleeve.

She didn't know what was wrong with herself.

I didn't have the heart to study all day yesterday, and my mind was full of images of him passing by with Ruan Ruan in his arms.

"Can you... can you... give me a moment?"

When these words came out, both of them were startled.

Yu Chengcheng didn't know whether this time meant the time to drink coffee now, or the time when she accepted Huo Xu from her heart.

The man pulled out his sleeve from Cheng Cheng's hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally compromised, "Yes."

Hearing that he said yes, the haze that had covered Yu Chengcheng's heart for a whole day dissipated instantly, "Then what do you want to drink? Caramel Macchiato, or latte?"

"latté."

"Wait for me, I'll do it."

Yu Chengcheng was so happy that the deer bumped around, holding the hem of his skirt and ran away quickly.

Huo Xu sat down in the corner of the coffee shop by the window. He was always serious about Cheng Cheng's affairs, but today he was a little absent-minded.

Counting the second hand on the watch, waiting for 5 minutes, Cheng Cheng still hadn't come back, he couldn't help losing his patience, and waved to the assistant beside him: "When it's over, send Cheng Cheng back to Yu's house."

Seeing him get up, the assistant hurriedly said, "Master Huo, are you waiting for Miss Cheng Cheng's coffee?"

"I have something to deal with. Say sorry to her for me."

The Huo Family Qiang Courtyard.

Yu Ruanruan was lying on the small table in the room, racking her brains to write the wrong set of questions.

Last night, Gu Yan sent her a photo of the teacher's handout. Although she had ideas for solving the problem, she still couldn't understand it.

At this time, the phone on the table buzzed and vibrated. It was Cheng Zishan's call.

"Ruan Ruan, didn't you say you needed a tutor yesterday? I called your Teacher Lu, and he said he didn't have time to teach you, but he recommended someone to you, and now that person is already waiting outside Qiang Yuan. You go and greet me."

Is the tutor here? !

Yu Ruanruan's eyes lit up, hungrily, and quickly put down the paper.

The afternoon sun was plentiful and dazzling, because the season had entered autumn, and the ultraviolet rays were not so strong, but it was still a bit hot.

Yu Ruanruan wore a small white skirt to go out, her long curly hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, the skirt fluttered in the breeze, and her straight and slender legs were shining white under the sunlight.

Outside the manor, the boy who had been standing for a long time couldn't move his eyes away from the girl who was walking towards him, and subconsciously clenched the corner of his school uniform tightly.

"Fu Chuan? Why are you?"

Yu Ruanruan stretched out her hand to cover the scorching sun above her head, and her eyes were surprised when she saw the figure at the door.

The tutor that Teacher Lu recommended to her was actually Fu Chuan?

Fu Chuan clenched his schoolbag tightly, his back as straight as a poplar, and he snorted unnaturally, "Well, I'm in a hurry, let's go in first and talk about it later."

"it is good."

The Maybach drove into the manor.

Huo Xu wore sunshade sunglasses and drove into the garage.

Coming out of the garage, he felt a little depressed, and realized that he had released Cheng Chengge for that woman Yu Ruanruan.

Regarding Cheng Cheng, he always regards himself as a guardian.

She had saved his life back then, and from that moment on, she was destined to be his salvation.

Thinking of this, Huo Xu frowned slightly, took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Cheng Cheng: "Sorry, I have something to do, let's go first. Drink coffee another day."

"call out--"

Yu Chengcheng: [It's okay, thank you today, Huo Xu. 】

The text message was returned almost in seconds. Seeing Cheng Cheng's considerate reply, Huo Xu's eyes softened a little, and he clicked on the address book to call his assistant: "I bought the set of jewelry that I liked last time. Send it on the day of Cheng's birthday."

The assistant echoed, "The two Ms. Yu's birthdays will be in half a month. Is Ms. Ruan Ruan's gift the same as in previous years?"

Huo Xu remembered that Yu Ruanruan had mentioned to him before that he liked the latest dress designed by Master Roland.

The dress will be produced in limited quantities at the end of the month.

He was about to speak when, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure under a parasol on the lawn not far away.

To be precise, there are two.

The boy was doing calculations on the draft paper with a pen in his hand, while the girl leaned towards him, listening attentively to the other party's problem-solving ideas.

The two were very close, and the breeze blew up the girl's hair and skirt, entangled between the boy's fingers and knees.

This boy, whom Huo Xu knew, was the boy who climbed over the wall and sneaked into Yu's house yesterday evening to deliver eggs to Yu Ruanruan.

In Yu Ruanruan's words, a bamboo horse?

Huo Xu's eyes suddenly became dark, and a sour feeling that he didn't even notice came to his heart.

He hung up the assistant's phone and walked towards the lawn.

"F(x) applies this formula here..."

"Is that so? I didn't expect it at all, but why did I use that formula to solve n=1? I said that I obviously got the answer right, so why didn't the teacher give me points! It turned out that the steps were wrong!"

Yu Ruanruan suddenly realized, "I was wrong when I wrote blindly. I knew I should buy a lottery ticket."

Fu Chuan was teased by her and pursed his lips, a little shy.
