Chapter 22 Aren’t you afraid of losing your blessing?
The two-day drive had left her with black eyes and messy hair, and she had just finished vomiting, and her face was pale and weak at the moment.
Talking about having wedding wine, it actually sounds more like fleeing from a disaster.
Jing Xiaoran stood still, staring at the two of them blankly. The red color, which symbolized celebration, was extremely dazzling in her eyes at this moment.
She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Huo Jingchen spoke first, without any fluctuation in her tone, "Find a place for her to sit."
Xia Mi looked sideways at Huo Jingchen's reaction, then looked at the person opposite, and vaguely guessed that the relationship between Jing Xiaoran and Huo Jingchen was unusual.
This is probably Xiao Qingmei, whom everyone misunderstood as her fiancée.
Although Jing Xiaoran said nothing, the shock and pain in her eyes were real. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that she was not here for a wedding banquet.
Xia Mi's inner mood didn't change much, but Jing Xiaoran's appearance turned into a thorn in her heart.
"Let's go." Huo Jingchen reminded Xia Mi, who was in a daze, and the wine glass had been handed over.
Xia Mi took the wine glass and subconsciously distanced herself from Huo Jingchen, not as close as before.
After going around in a circle, they finally arrived at the table where Jing Xiaoran was sitting. Xia Mi could feel that Huo Jingchen deliberately put that table at the end and said much less than the previous tables.
After the toast, Jing Xiaoran left the table and followed him, "Brother Jingchen, I have something I want to say to you alone. It's very important."
This is the first thing Jing Xiaoran has said since she came in.
The atmosphere instantly became subtle. Those present were all married people with children, and Xiao Jiujiu knew very well about Jing Xiaoran.
The question was clearly about Huo Jingchen, and all eyes were focused on Xia Mi.
Xia Mi said nothing, waiting for Huo Jingchen to express his position.
"Don't you see that I have more important things to do? If you don't want to eat, I will send you to a guest house or take a boat back."
"Captain Huo, this is the fiancée you mentioned before, oh no, she's a child."
Li Jiajia didn't mind seeing the excitement and stood up directly to support the fire.
Instructor Li suddenly changed his expression, stood up and scolded, "Li Jiajia, what do you want from me? Sit down!"
"What's wrong with me? No one came to Camp Huo's house when he got married. It's so hard for him to come, and I can't care about him anymore?"
Xia Mi smiled coldly and lowered his hands, waiting for Li Jiajia to act like a monster.
The smile on Li Jiajia's face was arrogant, and she pointed directly at Xia Mi in the next second, "Comrade Xia, what do you mean, this is your husband's family, you don't have to offer me two more glasses of wine?"
Xia Mi's smile froze on his face, and his eyes gradually became cold.
"Comrade Li is still as enthusiastic as ever. If you don't drink these two cups for me, I will forgive you for spreading rumors and framing me last time. How about that?"
Li Jiajia frowned and wanted to refuse, "Let me drink your wine for you. Aren't you afraid that I will enjoy your blessing?"
"Don't be afraid. My happiness cannot be represented by a few glasses of wine. Besides, if wine can replace it, everyone should drink a few more glasses to feel the blessing."
The atmosphere at the scene was tense.
Not to be outdone, Xia Mi fought back again, seeing that neither of them wanted to make her feel better.
She took the initiative to take the new wine and filled two glasses, walked straight to Li Jiajia, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Then I'll trouble you, Comrade Li."
Li Jiajia frowned. She looked at the full glass of liquor. Before she drank it, her stomach started to feel burning.
"Why, do you think you're not sincere enough? Do you want to toast two more glasses on my behalf?" Xia Mi threatened again.
Li Jiajia met Xia Mi's eyes with sarcasm. She wanted to refuse, but she just listened to Xia Mi's words.
"I know Uncle Yan and Aunt Yan very well. If they know that Yan Yiming's partner on the island has questionable character and loves to cause trouble, what do you think..."
Before she finished speaking, Li Jiajia gritted her teeth, took the wine, and said to Jing Xiaoran.
"Comrade, I came all the way for you on Xia Mijing's behalf, and I did it!"
Li Jiajia drank two drinks in a row, her face wrinkled up in pain, and it was so painful that she shed tears.
Xia Mi looked at Li Jiajia's heroic movements and curled his lips. Jing Xiaoran was overwhelmed by the sudden toast and wanted to refuse, but how could Li Jiajia let herself suffer alone.
"You represent the Huo family. On Huo Ying's happy day, you always have to give him this face. Otherwise, I would be sorry for you having to come all the way."
Xia Mi also admired Li Jiajia's eloquence.
It's a shame to be a doctor, you deserve to be doing cross talk.
Jing Xiaoran had no choice but to drink two glasses of wine while everyone watched. The burning white wine made her frown.
Before ten minutes had passed, Jing Xiaoran found Huo Jingchen who was eating again, her voice aggrieved.
"Brother Jingchen, my stomach hurts so much. Can you take me to have a rest?"
Political Commissar Song, Captain Jiang, Instructor Li, and several other senior leaders all calmed down and waited for Huo Jingchen's outcome.
"I know the guest house well, I'll take you there."
Li Jiajia's voice sounded, and she took the initiative to leave the table and come over, "If you feel uncomfortable, I can take you to the hospital. I am a doctor. If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me on the street."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Jing Xiaoran was stunned and wanted to find an excuse, so Li Jiajia dragged her away and walked out.
Jing Xiaoran was not the only one who was surprised. Everyone in the audience was confused and didn't understand what Li Jiajia was doing.
When watching the two people leave, Xia Mi saw Fu Ming's figure at the door, and then realized that he had not come to eat.
"I'll see them off." Xia Mi greeted and stood up, then hurriedly followed them out.
Fu Ming left dejectedly. He had a sleepless night last night and didn't fall asleep until five o'clock in the morning. It was already noon when he woke up.
When we rushed over, it was already at the end and everyone had almost finished eating.
"Fu Ming, why did you come just now?"
Xia Mi called out to him and quickly chased after him, looking at his messy hair, "Did you just wake up?"
Fu Ming was stunned and nodded, "I'm sorry, Sister Xia Mi, I got up late."
"What's there to be sorry for?" Xia Mi also realized that everyone inside had almost eaten, and it was not appropriate to go in now.
"You haven't eaten yet?"
Fu Ming nodded, worried that Xia Mi would ask him to go back again, so he hurriedly said, "You don't have to worry about me. I'll heat up the food and eat it. I won't bother you anymore."
"I collected your things, but you didn't even eat my food. If you don't mind, I'll go back and give you another bowl of noodles. When you finish eating, your brother Huo will come home, so you guys can take the opportunity to talk things over. ”
"I don't need to eat, I just wait for Brother Huo."
Xia Mi turned around and returned to the cafeteria. She walked to Huo Jingchen and lowered her voice.
"Fu Ming has something to tell you. Come back early after dinner. He and I will go back first."
Huo Jingchen's eyes dimmed, this sentence sounded unpleasant.
His and her home, and now she wants to take another man back?
He whispered the second half of Xia Mi's sentence repeatedly in his heart, his face turned cold, and the air pressure around him dropped.
Seeing that Huo Jingchen didn't say anything, Xia Mi thought he had acquiesced, and because of Jing Xiaoran, he left without waiting for him to speak.
The man's hand holding the chopsticks was so hard that it turned white, and the air pressure around him sank.
"Let's go. Brother Huo will be back soon." Xia Mi came out of the cafeteria and found that Fu Ming's buttons were messed up. "Re-button them."
Fu Ming lowered his head to check and found that the buttons were tied wrongly. His face turned red and he hurriedly unbuttoned them.
Xia Mi turned away, her red lips slightly raised, and her eyes bent, looking delicate and beautiful.
Huo Jingchen stood at the door of the cafeteria with a panoramic view of this scene.
