If the relationship between the two of them was that Huo Jun was pursuing Su Yi, then after he held Su Yi’s hand and she did not refuse, they had already tacitly entered the dating stage.
When Su Yi returned to the academy that day, she began to urge the Su family to speed up the cancellation of the engagement. She didn’t want to be Xie Mingzhao’s fiancée anymore.
But the conflict of interests in the big family was not something that she, a junior, could decide.
In order to increase the bargaining chips, she did not hide it and directly mentioned Huo Jun.
Ordinary people may not know how many lovers and illegitimate children the emperor has, but for a family like the Su family who is good at scheming, even if they can’t know everything, at least they have a rough idea.
The other side did not respond to Su Yi immediately. It seemed that they needed to weigh the pros and cons. It was not until the next morning that they asked her if she was sure.
Although the Su family is a noble family, they have always been in a mediocre position in the real upper circle and cannot enter the core of the Capital Star.
If they marry the Xie family, they can only maintain the status quo and cannot move forward.
However, if they invest in the right treasure and stand on the right side, when a new person in power comes to power in the future, the status of the Su family will definitely be different.
If it were in the past, they might not dare to gamble, but now Huo Jun’s strength has far exceeded that of others.
And from the fact that the Emperor showed no signs of anger when the Black Rose’s pirate group was destroyed not long ago, it could be seen that he did not have much feelings for those lovers and their children.
Even though he showed that he loved Black Rose so much in the past, now that she was gone, he did not feel sad at all.
He was so cold and indifferent that it was chilling.
But it is precisely this kind of indifference that makes him only value powerful descendants.
Whoever has the strongest ability is likely to be the final winner, and it has nothing to do with the selfish favoritism of the superiors.
Huo Jun is outstanding enough. If the Su family is on his side and he succeeds in the future, the rewards will be huge. Even if he fails, the only loss will be the marriage with the Xie family.
This deal is worthwhile.
The only thing to consider was whether Su Yi could hold Huo Jun firmly, so they asked this question.
Of course, Su Yi was sure about Huo Jun, but she would not tell Su Jiaming.
She just acted coquettishly and clingy in the tone of Miss Su and added at the end: If Huo Jun knew that she was engaged, he might get angry and ignore her, so she must cancel the engagement!
Originally, the balance of the Su family had already gradually tilted. Under her nagging, they finally agreed to stop haggling with the Xie family and talk directly about breaking off the engagement.
Two days later, when the good news came, Su Yi was walking with Huo Jun.
As they walked, they planned to go to the other side of the Capital Star on the weekend to find a local delicacy.
When the communicator rang, she raised her wrist to see the message from the Su family, saying that they had already reached an agreement with the Xie family. The two families maintained a superficial peace and resolved the matter.
“What?” Huo Jun stopped and waited for her.
Su Yi quickly replied, shook the communicator on her arm, and said, “My engagement with Xie Mingzhao is officially canceled.”
“Really?” He was delighted.
Su Yi couldn’t help but look at him, “My business, so why are you happy?”
Huo Jun touched the corner of his mouth, raised his eyebrows, and said seriously, “Really? Maybe it’s because my expressions have their own will and I can’t control them.”
Serious nonsense.
As the two of them walked along, they attracted a lot of attention, especially the usually cool Senior Huo, who had a big smile on his face, which surprised everyone.
Until they reached the grove near Su Yi’s dormitory, there were fewer people and the night breeze was cool. She didn’t want to go back to her room right away, so she rested on a chair beside the path in the woods.
Huo Jun sat beside her, and his expression was now restrained. He touched his cheeks, which were a little sour from laughing, and said, “If Xie Mingzhao comes to pester you again, remember to notify me immediately.”
“It won’t be a big deal.”
Su Yi picked up a fallen leaf from the chair and played with it in her hand.
“He might be a little unwilling to accept it, after all, I was the one who proposed to break off the engagement first. But he is also a person who cares about his reputation and self-esteem, so he won’t do anything that would embarrass himself.”
After listening, Huo Jun said with a slightly sour tone, “You seem to know him well?”
How could Su Yi not be satisfied with his behavior of being jealous?
She said casually, “Yes. After all, I have known him for more than ten years.”
Someone calculated in his heart that he had only known the other party for more than a month, which was nothing compared to more than ten years, so he felt even more upset.
After blocking the way for a long time, seeing that Su Yi ignored him, he had to find some sense of existence for himself and discredit potential opponents by the way.
“Who knows if he will go crazy because his self-esteem is hurt? Anyway, you have to be careful. I’ll be there whenever you call.”
Su Yi picked up another leaf, pinched the two petioles with both hands, and turned them around on her fingers.
She said casually, “Don’t worry, I can handle it myself, no need to call you. By the way, are your friends all right?”
“You mean Huang Cangcang and the others? They’re fine, as they’re thick-skinned and strong. They’ve been alive and kicking for a long time.”
Thinking about the faces of those people who seemed to want to say something but stopped when they looked at him these days, Huo Jun felt that compared with the physical pain, their mental trauma might be greater.
After all, not everyone could accept the setting that the little beauty was actually a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Thinking of Su Yi’s speed and wonderful strength that day, even Huo Jun couldn’t help but marvel at it.
He didn’t know why Su Yi, who was supposed to be a delicate girl, had such strength, but he didn’t intend to delve into her secrets.
It was just that every time after he saw her skills, he could feel that he still had shortcomings and realized that he needed to work harder to keep up with her, instead of being satisfied with the status quo.
