The ex-wife is rebellious, which makes the CEO feel troubled

Chapter 279 Is she going to marry someone else? !

The clerk was a little surprised, but soon his expression returned to normal, and he asked in a persuasive manner: "Then what kind of person do you think she is?"

Facing the clerk's question, Gu Huaijing subconsciously thought of all the care and consideration Ning Xi had shown him before their divorce, and his eyes couldn't help but soften a little.

"He is a very gentle person...but he sticks to his principles and is very tough."

The clerk noticed the gentle look in his eyes and secretly envied him.

Who can be pursued by a handsome guy of this level? So happy.

"I probably understand what you mean, wait a minute."

The clerk turned around and took out a handful of purple-white lilies from the flowers: "This is the newly cultivated perfume lily in H City this year. It has a fresh smell and elegant color. I think it is very suitable for the girl you are talking about."

Gu Huaijing took a look and saw that the fresh lilies were still wet with rain and dew, and their color was very vivid.

"Wrap it up for me."

The clerk knew that he wanted to give it to the person he was pursuing, so he specially packaged it in light pink pear paper and tied a bow with a ribbon at the end.

The bouquet looked exquisite and beautiful, and Gu Huaijing couldn't help but feel guilty.

After five years of marriage, he had never given Ning Xi a flower...

With a hint of anxiety and expectation, Gu Huaijing came to the door of Wen's company.

As soon as the car stopped, he saw Ning Xi's figure, and he was shocked, but also a little happy.

But soon the smile on his lips froze.

Next to Ning Xi, stood a man he least wanted to see——

He Zhao.

"You could have just waited for me in the office, why did you come down to pick me up in person?" He Zhao was wearing graffiti short-sleeves and jeans, looking healthy and sunny.

"There are many people in the company, so we can just go to the pavilion at the back and talk. Besides, the road is nothing."

After Ning Rong Qingyun returned, Ning Xi sent a message to He Zhao, asking him to come to the Wen family if it was convenient.

He Zhao blinked, "Then as compensation, let me treat you to afternoon tea later?"

Ning Xi hadn't seen him for a while. Ever since she declined He Zhao, He Zhao had become more restrained. Even if they are joking face to face like now, they still have a good sense of proportion, which makes people smile.

Apart from anything else, He Zhao is indeed a person worth getting to know deeply.

The two of them walked towards the pavilion behind the company while talking and laughing. Gu Huaijing quickly got out of the car and followed behind with a calm expression.

It was working time, and few people came around the pavilion. He Zhao sat down, stretched his long legs, and asked curiously: "What exactly do you want to give me?"

He was passing by to see Ning Xi, but Ning Xi said that she had something to give him.

Ning Xi took out a beautifully wrapped box from her bag and handed it to him.

The appearance seemed familiar to He Zhaoguang. When he opened it, he saw that it was the priceless jade bracelet.

Thinking of what his grandma told him yesterday, she married her wife to Ning Xi, "I also like this kid Xiao Xi. She is probably a little slow-tempered. Don't be impatient and slowly impress her. Yesterday she They all accepted my dowry, and I have identified this granddaughter-in-law."

So when He Zhao saw the bracelet, he was stunned: "What are you...?"

Ning Xi looked calm: "Grandma He gave me this bracelet before. But it was the old man's dowry back then, and it is so valuable. After thinking about it, I feel that I really deserve it, so please take it back."

He Zhao said euphemistically: "Since she gave it to you, she is in love with you, so you don't have to be mentally burdened. My grandma is a person who is right. If I take her things back without permission, she will go and twist my ears." of!"

He pretended to be afraid and pushed the thing back: "Don't let me be punished."

Ning Xi's delicate eyebrows frowned subconsciously: "But I don't get any reward for my merits, and I don't get any reputation. How can I be embarrassed to accept it?"

He Zhao met her eyes, as if he wanted to look into her heart, and spoke in a very calm tone.

"It's not that we don't have any titles. There is still an engagement between our two families, although I know you can't accept it now. However, some things just require a title, right?"

"And the elders are very worried about this matter. Xiao Xi, if you can't accept me for a while, we can complete the nominal engagement. Not only will the elders feel at ease, but the marriage between the two will also have a positive impact on your company."

Not far away, when Gu Huaijing heard all this, his heart was beating like a drum for a moment, and he was so nervous that he held his breath.

This He Zhao is clever and charming, Ning Xi will not really fall into his trap!

From his angle, he couldn't see the subtle changes in Ning Xi's face. He could only hear her slowly saying——

"Sounds like a win-win idea."

For a moment, Gu Huaijing's breathing seemed to be stagnant.

It felt like a five-flavor bottle had been knocked over in my heart. It was a terrible feeling. In addition to being angry at He Zhao's sweet words, he was even more annoyed and unwilling.

It was obvious that he was the person closest to Ning Xi in the past, but now he missed the opportunity due to special circumstances and asked others to take advantage!

Moreover, Ning Xi actually agreed.

Could it be that...she really has no affection for him at all and will never look back?

His heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, forcing him to almost breathless.

Suddenly he saw a cleaning staff walking towards him not far away, so Gu Huaijing had no choice but to hold his breath and leave temporarily.

Here, Ning Xi shook her head gently: "I know you are considering me, but I can't accept it."

"There is a lot of prejudice against unmarried and childless women in the workplace. The more this happens, the more I have to rely on my own strength to convince them. As for my family, I will also comfort them."

He Zhao couldn't help but look at her.

During this time, Ning Xi's figure became thinner, but she had a determined look on her face, and her petite body contained huge energy.

It is like a piece of beautiful jade that has been carved and polished to reveal a softer luster.

"But wouldn't that be too hard?" he said softly.

Ning Xi said sincerely: "Working hard for something you like is not considered hard work. Besides, if I agree, it won't be fair to you. He Zhao, you are a very good person, and I don't want to hurt you because of my selfish desires." ”

Even if she refused, he wouldn't be angry at all. Instead, He Zhao admired her perseverance even more.

He Zhao took a step back: "You have your own ideas, and I respect you. But just keep this bracelet with peace of mind."

Ning Xi refused several times to no avail, so she could only say: "...Then I will keep it for now."

The two chatted about each other's current situation, and Xu Xu said a few words. Ning Xi's company still had matters to attend to, so he had to leave first.

So when Gu Huaijing came back, what he saw was her gently bending her eyes at He Zhao, smiling gently and saying: "See you another day."

In his eyes, he seemed to be reluctant to leave.

Gu Huaijing's fists could not help but slowly clenched.

Originally, he deliberately kept a distance from Ning Xi, but now he couldn't care less. As soon as He Zhao left, he walked up quickly.

Ning Xi suddenly saw him arriving and couldn't hide her surprise: "...Why are you here?"

As she said that, she subconsciously checked Gu Huaijing's body.

Gu Huaijing did not answer her words, but reached out and grabbed her wrist, leading her to a more secluded and uninhabited place.

Ning Xi was surprised and said: "What are you doing? Let me go!"

Gu Huaijing had a gloomy face all the way, and only let go of his hand when he got there. The eyes he looked at Ning Xi were bottomless, like a pool of thick ink, mixed with thousands of complicated emotions.

"You just accepted your engagement with the He family?"
