A burst of cool air slowly relieved the sultry summer heat when May stepped on the car.
The man in the car was closing his eyes and leaning on the back chair. He had a wide forehead and a straight nose. Even his deep, narrow eyes were closed, could not hide his handsome. Joseph Huo had a body skeleton and facial features that similar to westerners. No matter what he did, there was a leisurely elegance.
He opened his eyes and nodded lightly without even looking at her when he heard her sound.
" How did this happen? " One of his long, beautiful hands stretched out and touched May's chin. There was a fierce and red fingerprint on it, which looked a little scary.
Joseph's eyebrows frowned, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
May was stung by the coldness in his eyes, and she felt as if she was burnt when his hand touched her chin, she turned her head conditioned and whispered: " It's nothing. "
She turned her head, and her white neck exposed, which contrast with the print on her chin more apparently.
There were complex emotions in his eyes, and his mouth's stiff corner showed his anger at the moment. Even if May didn't say it, he could guess hoe this pinch seal came from...
Leo Chen felt the temperature in the car had dropped a lot in an instant. Suddenly, the mobile phone in his trouser pocket was vibrated. He quickly stopped the car aside and got off to the nearby pharmacy. Later on, Leo carried a bag and handed it to May, " Miss Song, please put it on, and the doctor said that this ointment works well. "
May froze and took the ointment, " Thank you, Secretary Chen. "
Leo was about to send Joseph to Huo's old house. It was In the villa area of South Mount District, the house of Chu was near.
On the way, May was a little upset, she had thought that Joseph would ask her a lot, but he kept his eyes closed while she was not the kind took the initiative to find topics.
The man opened his eyes slowly when they were about to reach the South Mount District. There was an impenetrable indifference in his eyes. "Do you have anything to ask? "
May trembled her body slightly.
She may not know about her well, but she was clear that there was no need to pass the Chu. So his " came across " was telling her something. But he didn't mention the cheat for a long time, was he already knew the truth, or was it just polite for Huo to investigate for her?
" President Huo, " May looked at Joseph nervously, and he drew a cigarette and light it.
The car was enveloped by the smoke soon. His face was more grim, covered by the smoke. May clenched her teeth and thought he might be the only one to help her if he believed her. " President Huo, I didn't cheat, and the design draft I took today was not my work."
Joseph made no reactions after she said that.
May felt upset, and it was rational that he did not trust her unconditionally.
The man whispered I wished it's you painted the picture when May was about to turn around,
The whisper was soft and vague, like the smoke in the car, and it was so light that made Mays stiff.
Joseph extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray, turned his head, and looked straight at May's: " I can find the truth. "
May froze for a moment and then pinched fingernails into her palm. " Really? "
" Yeah. " Joseph nodded indifferently.
May clenched her hands tightly. She knew he could handle this!
And she would be able to wash away the suspicion of plagiarism by his method. Then she eagerly looked at the man in front of her, " What solution does President Huo have? "
There was a flash of light in his eyes when Joseph saw the eagerness on her face, and he snickered. Then he but shook his head and kept calm, " No hurry. I do have a method to make you out of a suspect, but, how do you repay me? "
" Repay...repay...? " May became a little weird when she heard the man's words before she cheered.
The deep eyes in front of her were mixed with a flame, it was not fierce, but there was another sense of indifference of low temperature. The more harmless you thought it was, the deeper you would fell into...she got it immediately, and the back spine was stiffer, " What does President Huo want me to repay? "
" How about marrying me? " Joseph looked at her straightly, and he turned his head, leaned on the back then said it lazily.
It liked a joke from his tune, but with a kind of serious vaguely.
May felt that the heart in her chest almost jumped out of her throat. She took a deep breath several times. She was excited because she had a way to dispel her suspicion of plagiarism. Still, she was clam down like pouring a pot of ice water on her. She sucked deeply: " President Huo, it is not funny at all. I have married, and I know that Mr. Huo also has a beloved woman. "
She put her hands on her side and clenched tightly.
The atmosphere in the car was momentarily solidified.
" You told me I didn't see the video interviewing me, how do you know I have a beloved woman? " Joseph suddenly said, when May thought that this embarrassing atmosphere would be continuing.
He looked at May with a smile with a touch of tenderness.
May blushed suddenly.
May slept in Joseph's house last time, and she was confused by the anxiety then. So she said that she didn't know about the video when Joseph asked her. But she told the truth now.
She hurriedly said: " I didn't watch it at the time, but so many people saw it. Everyone talked about this. I heard even I didn't want to know. "
" Really? " His raised mouth corner revealed unbelieving.
May tightened her face and nodded stiffly.
Joseph suddenly laughed.
He was unsmiling usually, even if there was a smile on his face, it was the light and shallow kind. The first time May saw he laughed, fading from the usual indifference, there was a strange sense of closeness that surprised May.
It's a pity that this laugh disappeared quickly. Joseph's eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned his head away from looking at her, " Come back to Huo's house with me, grandfather has something for me. I'll send you back home as long as I finished. This time, I will help you get rid of the suspicions. "
Joseph closed his eyes again had said that it was no chance to refuse.
May opened her mouth with surprise and closed it with a complicated look.
Joseph had a beloved woman. Although she didn't know who that woman was, she should be a perfect person to match with him.
May suppressed the strange feeling that came up in her heart. She kept comforting herself: Just going his home with him, not a big deal, maybe he had something in a hurry, so he would like to send her home after the conversation.
