Chapter 61

Sheng Xi'an and Huo Shaoting's marriage didn't come naturally, and they didn't announce it to the public. So when Sheng Xi'an heard the word "husband", she was still a little confused.

Qiao Yuhao heaved a sigh and said, "That's Huo Shaoting, you idiot!"

Looking in the direction of Qiao Yuhao's finger, she found that the man who was standing with his back to the entrance was exactly Huo Shaoting.

"What he is doing here?" A good idea came to Qiao Yuhao's mind. "Is he really buying you jewelry?"

Qiao Yuhao was the kind of person with a careless personality and a hot temper. To put it simply, she was a straightforward person. In her own words: "Life is short. Why should I suppress myself? I cry when I want to cry, curse when I want to curse, and laugh when I am happy. If you can do something, don't think too much, or you'll lose your mind and live a few years less."

"You think..." Originally, Sheng Xi'an meant to say that she thinks too much, but Grandpa Huo's words suddenly flashed through her mind. She immediately shut her mouth and looked at Huo Shaoting's tall figure, her heart beating faster.

Qiao Yuhao chuckled. When the elevator reached the second floor, Qiao Yuhao pulled her out and said, "Let's go. He happens to be here. Go and pick out a style you like."

Sheng Xi'an was afraid that Huo Shaoting wouldn't be happy to see her, but she couldn't contain the joy in her heart. She hadn't been so excited in a long time, just like after exams when she was a child. She knew that she had done a good job on the exam, but she had been holding back. Then she had to wait for the teacher to give her a compliment when she handed her the test paper, but she had to put on a calm look.

"Hey!" Qiao Yuhao patted Huo Shaoting on the shoulder with a big smile. "Third Brother, long time no see!"

Huo Shaoting looked back and asked, "Qiao Yuhao?" He glanced at Sheng Xi'an with a cold look in his eyes.

Without saying a word, Sheng Xi'an lowered her head and looked at her feet.

Qiao Yuhao heaved a sigh and put on a bigger smile. "Are you buying jewelry, Third Brother?"

Huo Shaoting answered with a grunt and took a card out from his wallet. He said to the shop assistant, "Wrap this up."

Sheng Xi'an quickly glanced at the necklace that Huo Shaoting had chosen. It was a new design by a famous band. Two flowers, one big and one small, were attached to one chain, each having four petals. Compared to the one sold at the auction, this one was smaller, but its style was simpler and more elegant.

"This... should be for her, right?" The one in the auction, she knew that it was for Yu Muyu. Even though she knew that the price of this necklace was not as expensive as that one, she still couldn't help feeling happy; her heart was full of joy.

"You bought that for Xi'an?" Qiao Yuhao asked with a grin.

Huo Shaoting frowned slightly and his face became more serious than before. He looked at Sheng Xi'an with a deep look in his eyes.

Sheng Xi'an noticed his gaze. She raised her head to look at him, but just as she was about to explain, Qiao Yuhao laughed and said, "Third Brother, I know what you are thinking. Xi'an didn't tell me about your marriage, Ji Linxiao did."

Huo Shaoting pursed his lips and withdrew his gaze, his expression easing a little.

"By the way, Third Brother," said Qiao Yuhao very straightforwardly, "we happened to see you. Would you like to pick out a dress for Xi'an with us? It will be more well-fitting for her, right?"

Huo Shaoting replied simply, "I don't have time."

Just then, the shop assistant brought the wrapped necklace in a gift box along with his card, and said, "Mr. Huo, here's your card, and the necklace has been wrapped up."

As Huo Shaoting took it and was about to leave, Qiao Yuhao fearlessly held him back and said, "Third Brother, you've come to buy jewelry. It won't take you much time to choose a dress. After all, Xi'an is your..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Huo Shaoting looked at her coldly. She coughed and said, "Well, I won't say it. You men are pickier than us women when buying clothes. Anyway, she's going to wear this dress for you. Why don't you come along?"
