Chapter 572: I Gave You My Body and Soul
Maybe it’s because Huo Jincheng is too good to her, always giving her gifts from time to time, that Lu Xingzhi no longer looks forward to Valentine’s Day."Can I take that to mean you really want to be with me?" Huo Jincheng laughed, as if giving gifts had become his fault.
"Yes!" Lu Xingzhi followed his lead and replied.
There’s nothing wrong with giving gifts, but Lu Xingzhi often frets over these things; there are just too many. She can’t possibly wear all the jewelry at once!
She can’t wear them all!
And those handbags, very nice, she has all twelve colors, and of course, more than just twelve.
No matter what color clothes she wears, she always has a bag to match.
"I won’t leave you, don’t worry! My body and soul are already yours," Huo Jincheng said with a deeper meaning.
The two of them had breakfast and went directly to the old house.
Meanwhile, over at Helian Xi’s place, upon receiving a call from Gu Jin Yan, she felt sorrowful and angry as she said, "What are you saying? You can’t make it back today?"
"I’m sorry, Xiao Xi, I still have things here to deal with. I’ll make it up to you with another Valentine’s Day when I return," Gu Jin Yan had no choice; he was currently abroad.
His father had sent him for this international cooperation in order to train him.
He initially thought he could make it back before the New Year, but now it seems it’ll be at least a few more days.
"Is this about Valentine’s Day? Other companies all take a holiday for the New Year, why are you still abroad?" Helian Xi felt terribly wronged and hurt since, ever since Gu Jin Yan graduated, he’s been too busy.
They’ve been spending much more time apart than together these days, with Gu Jin Yan constantly going on business trips, which really upset Helian Xi.
"Xiao Xi, I’m doing this for our future, too," Gu Jin Yan still hoped to achieve something in his career.
"So, you just threw the National Style Society at me. You haven’t had a meal with me in ages." They kept their relationship private, but Helian Xi felt like she was being left behind.
"Xiao Xi, I want to accompany you too, but...," Gu Jin Yan hadn’t finished speaking when someone on his side started calling for him, and after responding, he said, "Xiao Xi, they’re calling me, I have to go. Bye bye!"
"Hello, hello, Gu Jin Yan!" Hearing the dead tone on the phone, Helian Xi furiously threw her phone onto the bed.
She had initially intended to get up, but after that call, her entire mood was ruined.
She understood him, but she also wanted to spend Valentine’s Day and New Year together.
This is the age when she most wants to have fun, and he’s not there to accompany her. When she gets older and that desire fades, what good will it be if he wants to accompany her then?
Stop using her as an excuse for everything.
Everything is for her? Has he asked if she wants it?
"Bastard!! Gu Jin Yan, you bastard!" You won’t even come back for the Spring Festival? Fine, I’ll go see for myself how busy you are, so busy you can skip coming home.
Helian Xi checked the flights and booked the earliest available ticket.
On the second day of the new year, flying over would just take a few hours.

When Huo Jincheng and Lu Xingzhi arrived at the old house, everyone else was already there.
"Little Zhi Liao, come, come, let’s take a picture together, I’ll put it up in my shop later. Our business will certainly be booming then," Shen Nianxi pulled out her phone the moment she saw her.
