Chapter 37: 037 Childhood Sweethearts_1 Chapter 37: 037 Childhood Sweethearts_1 “Bastard…liar…big liar…” Lin Xiangwan stared at the black screen, tears pouring down ceaselessly.

The sounds of explosions outside continued, and out of fear, she wanted to call Song Yichen, but her finger ultimately skipped past his name and landed on ‘Hu Sen’ and dialed.

The moment the call connected, the sound of heavy breathing could be heard from the other end. “Ah…Wanwan, wait for me a bit, will be done soon, don’t hang up!”

“I better hang up, you sort out your business!” Lin Xiangwan said.

“No need, I’ll be quick, please don’t hang up.” The man on the other end of the call firmly told Lin Xiangwan. After that, she moved the phone away from her ear, not listening to the inappropriate content.

She wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, sitting in silence, waiting.

About seven or eight minutes later, the man’s slightly panting voice came through the phone again. “Wanwan, what’s wrong?”

“Hu Sen…” The moment Lin Xiangwan spoke, she broke into tears as shock and fear welled up within her.

“What’s wrong? What happened?” Hu Sen instantly grew worried.

Unable to suppress her terror, Lin Xiangwan stuttered her response: “My house is going to…explode…It’s going to catch fire, they…are threatening me, frightening me…”

“Who? Who dares to hurt you? Damn it, don’t be afraid, wait there, I’m coming to pick you up!” Hu Sen cursed furiously, already starting to get dressed.

“Okay…” Lin Xiangwan didn’t bother standing on ceremony, urging him. “Hurry up and come, I’m scared to death!”

“Don’t hang up, we’ll keep talking!” said Hu Sen, as he rushed out the door.

“Sen, stay a while longer!” the woman called out, trying to cling onto him.

Hu Sen kicked the woman clinging onto him away, sneering with the same disgust he might show towards a fly. “Get lost, don’t hang onto me!”

The woman fell on the ground, casting a disgruntled look at him from where she lay.

Hu Sen didn’t give her a second glance and left the room, asking his underling to drive while he got into the back seat.

Lin Xiangwan, still tightly clutching her blanket, heard his voice on the phone and knew he was on his way, so she felt a little less afraid. “What should we talk about, I don’t know what to talk about!”

Hu Sen looked out at the trees racing past the car window, smirked and suggested. “Talk about Song Yichen in your family, how have you guys been doing recently?”

“There’s no chance for us!” A bitter taste rushed to Lin Xiangwan’s throat, sour and achingly painful.

“Are you really certain it’s impossible? Could you give up on him?”

“I can!” Lin Xiangwan immediately replied, as if making a promise to someone else, but more so making a promise to herself.

“Alright, if you can really forget him, then date me, I will marry you!” Hu Sen nonchalantly suggested.

“Marry you? I would only do that if I go crazy!” Lin Xiangwan said without the slightest interest.

“Hey, come on, why is marrying me the same as going crazy?” Hu Sen sat up straight, questioning her defensively. “I’m not bad looking, and I’m rich, which part of me isn’t worthy of your marriage?”

Lin Xiangwan sniffled. “You’re great in all aspects, it’s me who’s not good enough for you, okay?”

Hu Sen showed immense magnanimity. “It doesn’t matter, as long as I don’t mind!”

“One moment you’re fooling around with a woman, the next you want me to marry you?” Lin Xiangwan scoffed. “I have no interest in a trashy man like you!”

Hu Sen frowned. “Come on, can you be reasonable? You’re not my girlfriend now, so naturally I have the right to sleep with other women. You don’t expect me to sleep with other men, do you?”

“Sleep with whomever you want, be it a man or a woman or a dog or a cat, I couldn’t care less!”

“You really don’t care?”

“Hmm!”

A warm smile spread across Hu Sen’s face, full of licentiousness. “In that case, I want to sleep with you. You can’t object!”

Lin Xiangwan rolled her eyes. “Can I not object if you bully me?”

“If I wanted to bully you, do you think you could stop me?” Hu Sen stopped joking around and asked seriously.

On Lin Xiangwan’s end, it wasn’t clear what he was saying. “Hey, what did you say? The signal’s really bad?”

“I want to fuck you right now…” Hu Sen growled into the phone.

“I can’t hear you clearly!” Lin Xiangwan looked at the phone, shook it twice and put it back to her ear.

“Bang…” At that moment, the front door of Lin Xiangwan’s house was swung open, and after entering, the person forcefully slammed the door shut again.

The loud sound of firecrackers outside drowned out all other sounds.

“Hey, Hu Sen, Hu Sen…you said you would keep talking to me, liar, liar…” Without his voice, Lin Xiangwan fell into fear once again.

Hu Sen tiptoed to her from behind and hugged her from the back.

With her back against him, she screamed in fright. “Ah…let me go, otherwise my brother will kill you!”

“Heh heh…a brother? Do you have a brother who would try so hard for you?”

A joyful and mischievous voice sounded near Lin Xiangwan’s ear. Suddenly, all her fear disappeared. She excitedly turned around. “Hu Sen, you villain!”

Merely cursing wasn’t enough, her fists lashed out at him like drumsticks.

Hu Sen was genuinely in pain from the hits and grabbed her fists. “Hey, I came to rescue you, and you hit me?”

“Boohoo…” Lin Xiangwan, now grasping the reality of the situation, started to cry. “You’re finally here, I thought I was going to die here!”

Looking out at the fiery red sky, Hu Sen pulled Lin Xiangwan towards the exit. “Let’s get out of here first, come on!”

“But, but if we leave, won’t they tear down my house?”

“I asked Xiaolong to keep an eye on it, don’t worry. If your house does get knocked down, I’ll get you a new one!” As Hu Sen reassured her, he pulled Lin Xiangwan out with him.

Once outside, the scent of gunpowder was indeed everywhere. Lin Xiangwan covered her mouth and quickly ran to Hu Sen’s Lamborghini!

Hu Sen got in the car and stared at Lin Xiangwan, asking analytically, “Being able to think of me in a crisis and wanting me to come to your rescue, does it mean that subconsciously, you still love me?”

Lin Xiangwan curled her lips. “Your self-confidence is really over the top!”

Hu Sen frowned. “I don’t like it when you talk like that. Give me a kiss, like when we were kids!”

He pointed to his cheek, close to his lips.

“Stop being so vain!” Lin Xiangwan gave him a glare.

“Hey, come on, really, give me a peck, as a way of thanking me. That should be fair, right?”

“Your face is too dirty, who knows how many women have kissed it!”

“I can clean it with disinfectant!” He then took out a bottle of hand sanitizer and wiped his face clean.
