Huo Chengmings brain was unable to work.
Co here. Zhong Yuhuan puzzledly looked at him and urged.
Why was he standing there like wood?
Zhong Yuhuan said helplessly, Are you not tired? Then you can just stand there.
Huo Chengming suddenly returned to his senses and without thinking, he took two strides, arriving next to Zhong Yuhuan. Then, he sat down next to her.
The faint perfu on Zhong Yuhuans body imdiately made its way into Huo Chengmings nose, seeming to tease a chord in his brain.
Huo Chengmings breathing unconsciously beca harsher.
When did you co here before? When I was at university? Zhong Yuhuan tilted her head and looked at him. Whats the foreigner outside called?
Huo Chengmings scattered thoughts imdiately dispersed.
Mhm, it was a long ti ago. And that person isnt important. Huo Chengming chose to say so and hide so truth.
Zhong Yuhuan raised her eyebrows.
But this counts as sothing good.
At least he didnt completely hide and not reveal anything to her.
Is there anything else that I dont know? Are you going to tell or should I ask? Zhong Yuhuan opened her mouth again.
Huo Chengmings gaze dropped, staring at Zhong Yuhuans expression.
She was also looking at him with a sincere gaze.
How could Huo Chengming resist that kind of gaze?
Or rather, he couldnt resist ever since she called out Brother Chengming to stop him.
I ca here with Mr. Chen the first ti to help him negotiate a deal. The next tis werent that Now, the property is under my na.
The foreigner is called Cobb. Hes xican. The people under him are a band of rcenaries. I just happen to hire them so Im their boss
Although Huo Chengming explained everything, his explanation was vague at parts.
For example
Short-term? Or are they employed long-term by you? Zhong Yuhuan asked.
Huo Chengming was silent for a mont. Long-term.
No wonder they ca so quickly. Zhong Yuhuan nodded.
Huo Chengming carefully looked at Zhong Yuhuans expression, then said, I didnt commit any bad things.
Zhong Yuhuan chuckled. I know you havent done any bad things.
Huo Chengming quietly breathed a sigh of relief, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Mhm, abiding by the law.
Humans must have a bottom line. Zhong Yuhuan nodded. Speaking until there, her tone changed. Of course, if you did sothing bad, its not like I can prevent it. No matter what wrong acts you commit in the future, as long as you dont let know, it can be passed over. But if I were to find out soday
Zhong Yuhuan shook her head. Then there will be no future.
Hearing this, Huo Chengming didnt feel relieved.
No matter what wrong acts you commit in the future
Wrong acts
What counts as a wrong act?
Sothing as severe as murder and arson?
Sothing as minor as Does doing everything he can to prevent her from dating Wen Yongchen count?
Why arent you talking? Zhong Yuhuan puzzledly looked at him. Do you really want to do bad things?
Nothing. Huo Chengmings expression returned to normal.
Zhong Yuhuan carefully looked at his face for a while, but couldnt find any clues. She couldnt help but mutter in her heart that he was really introverted
Thats fine. No more questions. Zhong Yuhuan was too lazy to even shower. She kicked off her shoes and curled her legs onto the bed. You can go now.
Huo Chengmings tone changed. No more questions?
Mhm, no more. You didnt hide anything from and just straightforwardly explained so I also have nothing else I want to ask. Either way, you wont hurt , right?
Huo Chengmings heart softened. Right.
Mhm, then theres no problem. Zhong Yuhuan laid down.
Huo Chengmings mouth moved but didnt say anything in the end. He stood up and started walking out.
But his heart voiced an unspeakable loss.
Then what was the point of her calling him over? They only spoke a few sentences, just a few sentences
He wanted to stay.
This thought suddenly appeared in Huo Chengmings brain.
Huo Chengming turned and looked in Zhong Yuhuans direction. Zhong Yuhuan had already burrowed into the quilt, leaving only her feet out. She had russet-red socks on.
Huo Chengming wanted to go over and cover her more with the quilt.
But this wasnt enough.
Huo Chengming curled his fingers and dropped his sight as his expression slightly changed, a huge wave rising in his heart.
He wanted to stay, to lie by her side, and embrace her in his arms.
Huo Chengming pressed his lips together and walked out with his hands to his side.
He felt ashad of the dirty thoughts he suddenly had, but those were quickly swept over by more desire. His adrenaline peaked in an instant.
No matter what wrong acts you commit in the future, dont let know.
Zhong Yuhuans voice echoed in Huo Chengmings mind again.
