Chapter 1916: (Chapter 1916) Huo Ze VS Xia Tang (119)
It seemed that someone was not expecting someone to break in, and they were all out of breath. The principal and others looked at Xia Cha and Aning with surprise in their eyes.
Xia Cha and Huo Heng's eyes collided.
His pupils are deep, the ends of his eyes are thin, and the tips of his eyebrows are slightly raised.
It was hard to tell what his emotions were, because he quickly moved his eyes away and turned to Ning next to Xia Cha.
Ah Ning is a popular young star who has held concerts with tens of thousands of people. When faced with emergencies, his psychological quality is quite good.
Seeing the looks of the principal and others, he straightened up and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm avoiding the fans with my lyricist."
The principal naturally knew Xia Cha and A Ning.
Xia Cha is an outstanding student at their Hong Kong University, and Ning is the guest he invited to perform at the party.
It turned out to be to avoid crazy fans.
The principal nodded, "A Ning, you just said that classmate Xia is your lyricist?"
Aning looked at Xia Cha beside her and said with a smile, "Thanks to camellia, otherwise I wouldn't be here today."
The principal has heard A Ning's songs. In addition to his own good voice, he is also the creator behind the lyrics and music.
At the beginning, he even praised the creator named Camellia for being very talented.
Unexpectedly, it was Xia Cha’s classmate from their school.
The principal came over and introduced Huo Heng beside him.
First, A Ning was introduced. After the two shook hands, Xia Cha was introduced.
Xia Cha's face had regained her composure. When she heard the principal introducing her in front of Huo Heng, she stretched out her hand and said with a slight smile, "Hello, Mr. Huo."
Huo Heng looked at Xia Cha and seemed to smell the faint fragrance of camellia on her body from a very close distance.
He raised his slender and well-boned hand and shook her gently.
The moment her hand touched with his, Xia Cha's heart beat faster.
It was like an electric shock.
After only a brief touch, he withdrew his hand.
He was neither cold nor enthusiastic, just like a familiar stranger, "Hello."
To be exact, they haven't seen each other in a year and a half.
He became the leader of the Huo family, and she also retreated behind the scenes and became a composer of lyrics and music.
…
At the party in the evening, Xia Cha had to speak as a representative of the exchange students, so naturally she couldn't leave early.
Leaving the library, Xia Cha found a few roommates.
Roommate A came over from the library after getting Xia Cha, and asked gossiping, "Chacha, have you seen the principal, Mr. Huo, and his party? I heard that Mr. Huo wants to donate a new library to the school, and it will cost so much money. ——”
Roommate A stretched out his hand and compared numbers.
Xia Cha felt as if she had been bitten by ants when she thought of Huo Heng's stranger-like gesture when shaking hands with him.
Xia Cha shook her head, indicating that she shouldn't think too much.
The fate is over, that's how it should be.
Didn't she just want him not to disturb her peaceful life?
…
The party starts at seven o'clock.
Xia Cha found her seat.
She is sitting in the third row.
Huo Heng and the principal sat in the first row.
Ah Ning sat in the second row with several invited celebrities.
As long as Xia Cha raised her eyes, she could see the man in the first row.
He took off his suit jacket and wore a tailored white shirt, leaning back on the seat. His short black hair was neatly trimmed.
The line from his neck to his shoulders was smooth and thin. The principal was talking to him. He tilted his head, and his side face looked like it was carefully sketched by an artist.
The other seat next to him was empty, and not long after, a woman in a dress came over.
Although Xia Cha has retreated behind the scenes, she is still familiar with most people in the entertainment industry.
The woman who came over was a well-known singer in Hong Kong. Her status and qualifications were incomparable to a fresh young girl like A Ning who had just debuted.
After the singer came over, she greeted Huo Heng and the principal.
Xia Cha forced herself to look away.
The party started, Xia Cha heard the host call her name, she stood up and walked to the stage.
When she was still Xia Tang, she had held concerts in stadiums with tens of thousands of people, and had received awards on international podiums. Logically speaking, there was nothing nervous about facing the attention of everyone.
But tonight...
As soon as she lowered her eyes, she seemed to be able to scan the man in the first row. His slender legs were elegantly crossed, and the fingers of his right hand were gently tapping on his knees. He raised his eyes and looked at her on the stage.
She knew that this was the minimum respect an audience could have for the speaker.
But in my heart, I still felt a little nervous.
Xia Cha took a deep breath, adjusted herself, and put herself into a 'working' state.
After speaking, Xia Cha left the stage amidst warm applause.
Ah Ning gave her a thumbs up, and she smiled at him.
After returning to his seat, Xia Cha concentrated on watching the party performance without looking at the man in the front row again.
Xia Cha left the party early.
The night wind blew a little bit, so she hugged her arms and rubbed them.
…
After walking out of campus, Xia Cha received a message from her roommate.
Invite her to have supper together in the evening.
Xia Cha didn't sleep well last night, and she didn't rest all day today, so she was feeling a little sleepy now.
She texted her roommate back another day.
Keep walking forward, suddenly, there is a beeping sound and the sound of honking the horn.
A black Bentley pulled up next to her.
The car window slowly lowered, and a handsome face with perfect outline appeared in front of her.
Xia Cha met the man's eyes and thought about what she should say to him.
Instead, he spoke first, not as calmly as when they met in the library. There was a smile on his lips, "Are you going back?"
His expression and attitude were quite calm.
Frankly, they were like a pair of friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.
They are really just friends.
Xia Cha smiled back at him, "Yeah."
"I send you."
Xia Cha pursed her lips and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but if she refused directly, it would appear that she was trying to hide it.
Xia Cha walked to the passenger seat, opened the door, and got in the car.
She reported the address of the apartment she bought when she was still Xia Tang.
The car's engine started, drove a few meters, and then stopped.
He looked sideways at Xia Cha.
Xia Cha looked out of the car window and noticed his gaze. She was puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Huo Heng suddenly turned sideways and stretched out his slender arms towards her.
The light and pleasant smell of a man came from the tip of his nose, mixed with a faint smell of tobacco.
Xia Cha's long eyelashes fluttered, and her heart beat faster instantly.
Her eyes happened to fall on the man's shirt-clad chest. Due to his sideways movement, the fabric of the shirt clung to his chest, faintly revealing the outline of his strong and muscular chest muscles.
Xia Cha looked away and saw his Adam's apple again.
With a slight 'click', her seat belt was fastened by him.
The man had sat back down and started the engine.
Xia Cha's fingers were holding the seat belt, leaning against her left heart, and she could still feel her fast and chaotic heartbeat under her palm.
She looked at his profile and said softly, "Thank you."
She actually forgot to fasten her seat belt, but he could just remind her, so why did he help her fasten it himself?
