Seeing Huo Jiaqi not speaking, Huo Jialin continued, "Is there a case you can’t solve at hand? Hey, we’re in the sa line of work. You can tell about it. If I can’t help you solve it, go find the Old Master. When he steps in, any problem gets resolved imdiately. What’s there to be lancholic about?"
After speaking, Huo Jialin raised the bottle and took another swig.
Huo Jiaqi didn’t pay him any attention and just kept drinking.
Watching Huo Jiaqi finish a bottle, Huo Jialin realized sothing was off.
"Huo Jiaqi, is it not work-related? Then what is it about? There are no outsiders here. What can’t you say? Tell , and I’ll keep it secret for you, alright?"
"If we’re drinking, just drink. Why so much chatter?" Huo Jiaqi shot him a glare. Before you knew it, the bottle in his hand was empty, and he set it down only to grab another one.
"Could it be that you had a fight with my future sister-in-law?" Huo Jialin lightly tapped the bottle in his hand. "It shouldn’t be. Ms. Mu seems so good-tempered, not like soone who would quarrel. You usually don’t have much of a temper either. How could you two get into a fight?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Huo Jiaqi’s hand holding the bottle stiffen slightly.
Initially, he was just guessing wildly, but seeing Huo Jiaqi’s reaction, he widened his eyes in surprise. "So you two really did have a fight?"
Indeed, even heroes can’t resist the allure of beauty. All these years, he had never seen Huo Jiaqi binge drink, and the rare sight was actually for a woman.
What’s going on with the n of the Huo Family?
Are they destined to fall at the hands of won?
"No, stop talking nonsense." Huo Jiaqi glared at him again and continued drinking.
"Really not?" Huo Jialin didn’t really believe it, though he thought it’s quite normal for couples to fight, and it wasn’t really his place to interfere. After thinking for a mont, he added, "Huo Jiaqi, why don’t you go back to your room to drink? If you get drunk later, I can’t be bothered to drag you back to your room. Besides, I don’t like sharing my bed with others. Just go back to your room, drink there, and sleep it off in your own room after you’re done."
Huo Jiaqi ignored him, drinking sullenly by himself.
The bottle in Huo Jialin’s hand wasn’t even half-empty, so he simply put it down. "Fine, just drink, just drink. If you really get drunk, you can sleep on the floor. But you’ll have to get up in the morning. If the Old Master finds out you were too drunk to get up and go to work, he’ll blow a fuse. I’ve suffered enough from the Old Master before. I advise you not to easily make him angry."
"Jialin, let ask you sothing." Having drunk more than half of a second bottle, Huo Jiaqi suddenly spoke seriously.
"What is it?" Huo Jialin frowned slightly, looking at him.
What kind of expression is this?
Could there really be sothing serious in front of him?
"Have you really moved on from Su Ge?"
As soon as Huo Jiaqi said this, Huo Jialin’s body froze.
Unable to help it, he picked up the bottle on the table. "Even if I haven’t, what’s the point? She already has soone in her heart. Letting go is freeing her, and freeing myself."
"So you haven’t really let go?"
"I say, Huo Jiaqi, are you kidding? What’s the point in asking whether I have let go of things between and Xiao Ge? It’s long over, already ended. Do you really need to question whether I’ve let go? Since there’s no possibility between us, I absolutely will let go."
