Chapter 257 No One Likes Me
He should have been mentally prepared for the date, but because he had to have dinner with his family, the date plan was put on hold.
But she couldn't stop Huo Beixi from having a date just because she had one, so Hua Xiali smiled and said, "Next time you have a break, we won't care about anything and we'll just go on a date."
Huo Beixi took out the key and opened the door. Hua Xiali asked curiously, "Huo Beixi, high school and college are the simplest and most beautiful stages in life. Didn't you have a girl you liked during this time? Didn't you have a date?"
Seeing Huo Beixi looking at him silently, Hua Xiali shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm just asking. If you really have a past, I won't do anything to you!"
She had been dating Wang Liang for almost a year and almost married him. What qualifications did she have to ask about Huo Beixi's past?
It's just pure curiosity!
And if he really had a past, she would have nothing to say. After all, she had no idea how many lifetimes she had lived in total. These things were not important. What was important was that they were able to overcome numerous difficulties and dangers and be together.
Suddenly he flew into the air, scaring Hua Xiali so much that she screamed. When she reacted, she was placed on the table by the wall. Hua Xiali looked at Huo Beixi in surprise, "What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I've never dated anyone." Huo Beixi put his hands on Hua Xiali's side, as if he was holding her in his arms.
Hua Xiali raised his eyebrows in disbelief, "You never liked anyone when you were in school? And no one liked you?"
As she spoke, she looked Huo Beixi up and down, her eyes filled with disbelief, "This shouldn't be the case!"
Although Huo Beixi's figure, appearance, knowledge and ability cannot be said to be the best, he is not bad either. There should be girls who like him. He may have received a lot of love letters. After all, when he was in school, people seemed to be more reserved than they are now.
"I'm pitiful, no one likes me." Huo Beixi lowered his eyes and looked at Hua Xiali. His wet eyes were like a stray dog that had lost its owner.
He didn't want to talk about the past, no matter whether it was Huo Beixi in his previous life or Huo Beixi now. Huo Beixi never wanted to talk to her about his parents and family, and he didn't want to talk about the past now.
But none of this matters; what matters is their present and future.
Hua Xiali put his hand on Huo Beixi's shoulder and looked at him seriously with his big almond-shaped eyes. "It's not that no one likes you, because you have a wife now. That's me. From now on, I will like you. I will like you as much as I like myself."
As she said this, she playfully reached out and rubbed his short hair, "But you can't let me down, or I'll take back my love for you."
Although she is still a little girl, her thinking and experience are not that of a little girl. If a man is dishonest to her, she will not wait foolishly. The thing that the world lacks the least is men. If this man is not good, can't she find a better man?
There are thousands of men in the world, and he, Huo Beixi, is not the only one.
Huo Beixi pulled Hua Xiali into his arms and hugged her tightly, as if the person in his arms was a precious treasure.

Xia Li, you don't know how important you are to me. There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so Hua Xia Li fished out the freshwater clams from the large water tank and taught Huo Beixi to crack one. The rest were all handed over to Huo Beixi to deal with. She sat beside him and took out the meat of the clam that had just been cracked. Seeing the round granules inside, she quickly took the thing out. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a pearl, as big as her thumb nail, big and round, with bright color.
"Is this a pearl?" Huo Beixi was a little surprised when he saw what Hua Xiali was holding. He didn't expect that there would be such a big pearl in it.
"Really?" Hua Xiali smiled and urged, "Help me open it quickly and see if there are any pearls in the others. See if we can put together a set of pearl jewelry. I don't have any jewelry yet!"
Huo Beixi smiled and continued to open the freshwater clams.
Hua Xiali poked his shoulder, "What are you laughing at? Do you think I'm too fanciful? Do you imagine that there are pearls in each one? You should have dreams, you know? Maybe your dreams will come true, don't you think?"
"Yes, my wife is right." Huo Beixi nodded with a smile, and continued to crack the freshwater clams.
Freshwater clams are difficult to break, so his speed is slower than Hua Xiali. After Hua Xiali took out the meat and pearls, he waited for Huo Beixi on the side. The two of them divided the work and worked together to break all the freshwater clams.
A whole basin of clam meat was broken out, and almost two bowls of pearls were taken out.
Hua Xiali fished among the pearls with his hands. "With so many beautiful pearls, it would be great if they could be made into pearl jewelry. But I don't know where to find someone who can make jewelry. Do you think the people in the antique street are reliable?"
"Leave this matter to me, and you don't have to worry about it. I promise to help you exchange these pearls for beautiful pearl jewelry."
"Okay, thank you then. You've worked hard to break out of your shell. Have a good rest. I'll take care of the rest. I promise to let you have a delicious meal you've never had tonight." Hua Xiali smiled brightly and handed the two large bowls of pearls to Huo Beixi. "Remember to tell them to let them do what they want, but make sure they look good for me!"
"Don't worry, I promise to make the jewelry beautiful." Huo Beixi returned to the house with two bowls of pearls, and then came back to wash the river clam meat with Hua Xiali. The river clam meat is very difficult to wash. Hua Xiali used spiritual spring water to raise it for a period of time, so it is a little cleaner and not so troublesome to wash.
But it still took almost two hours to wash a basin of clam meat. When Hua Xiali stood up, she felt dizzy. Huo Beixi quickly reached out and supported her body with his arms behind her back. "What's wrong?"
Hua Xiali shook his head. "It's okay. I just got up too hastily. Please help me bring the clam meat to the kitchen and I'll cook it later."
Coming to the kitchen, Hua Xiali first blanched the clam meat, and then started processing it. Huo Beixi couldn't eat spicy food, so Hua Xiali divided the clam meat into two pots, one slightly spicy and the other with only two red peppers. Clam meat has a strong fishy smell, much stronger than fish, and it would not taste good without any spicy taste, so some peppers had to be added.
After finishing it, Hua Xiali gave half of the slightly spicy portion and asked Huo Beixi to send it to her home. Hua Qiuli had not returned to school yet, so it was a good opportunity for her to eat some at home.
