Chapter 72 - Like

Ye Shaochen pulled the woman off his body, threw her outside with a cold face, and then closed the door with a “bang”.

Damn it, why was Huo Yunxi ‘s tearful eyes always in his mind? Unfamiliar heartache was overwhelming, almost drowning him.

“Young Master Ye! Young Master Ye, my clothes!”

Ye Shaochen grabbed the red coat on the sofa and threw it out. Then, he closed the door heavily again!

He had just heard her drive away, but he didn’t know if she was home yet. The little girl is in a bad mood. I wonder if it’s safe to drive alone?

Thinking of this, Ye Shaochen was finally unable to remain calm. He picked up his phone and prepared to make a call, but Huo Yunqi went to call first.

” Ye Shaochen , what happened between you and Yunxi?” Huo Yunqi’s tone was very bad, and she was a little angry. “She called me crying and didn’t tell me what happened! I’ll be right at your apartment, so you can persuade her.”

“She didn’t go home?” Ye Shaochen jumped up and his heart was pulled into a ball. The garden villa was not far from the Huo Clan’s old mansion, so he should have arrived long ago.

Huo Yunqi’s tone was also shocked, “Is Yunxi not here?”

“I’ll go out immediately!” Ye Shaochen hung up the phone and hurriedly left the house, feeling uneasy. Huo Yunxi ‘s sad face had been lingering in his mind, and those innocent eyes seemed to be condemning him.

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yunqi looked at the two women opposite him and helplessly frowned, “Is this okay?”

Huo Yunqi drove Xia Luobing to the location Huo Yunxi had mentioned very quickly. Hearing Huo Yunxi tearfully recount what had happened, Xia Luobing came up with such an anxious method to punish Ye Shaochen .

“Sister-in-law, is this good?” Huo Yunxi ‘s eyes reddened as he sobbed, “What if he can’t find me?”

The corner of Xia Luobing’s mouth twitched and he rolled his eyes helplessly, “He definitely won’t find you!”

Now that the three of them were in Huo Yunqi’s villa, it would be strange if Ye Shaochen could find them!

“Then what should we do next?” Huo Yunxi looked pitifully at Xia Luobing, clearly treating her as a last resort.

“Yunxi, if he really doesn’t like you, what are you going to do?” Xia Luobing looked at the little girl worriedly. She could tell that Huo Yunxi seemed to love Ye Shaochen badly.

Huo Yunxi wiped away his tears and remained silent for a while before muttering, “I’m so good, why doesn’t he like it?”

The moment these words were spoken, the three of them fell silent. The last thing they should ask in their relationship was “Why?”

“Alright, big brother and sister-in-law, I’m joking!” Huo Yunxi rubbed his eyes and forced a smile. He said seriously, “Although I like him very much, if he really doesn’t like me, I can’t keep pestering him. At least I tried my best!”

Xia Luobing hugged Huo Yunxi ‘s shoulder and nodded, “Yes, at least you worked hard.”

“Yunxi, go to the study for a while.” Huo Yunqi looked at the time and said, “I just texted Ye Shaochen . He’s on his way.”

Huo Yunxi hesitated for a moment. Finally, she bit her lips and entered the study. When she closed the study door, she heard Ye Shaochen enter. Her heart instantly pulled, and the sound of her heart beating almost overwhelmed the sound of the voice outside.

“Yunxi has already returned to the old mansion.” Huo Yunqi gestured for Ye Shaochen to sit down, then looked at the panting man and said half-jokingly, “What’s going on?”

It was the first time he had seen Ye Shaochen in such a sorry state since he had known him for so long.

“Little girl is angry, so she hurriedly roars and leaves!” When Ye Shaochen heard Huo Yunqi say that Huo Yunxi had arrived home safely, he couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief. He suddenly felt relieved, “She has already returned home. Didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Xia Luobing stared at Ye Shaochen as if he was examining a prisoner. Seeing that Ye Shaochen was uncomfortable, he asked, “Do you like Yunxi?”

Hearing Xia Luobing’s words, Huo Yunxi stuck firmly to the wall, gritting her lips with her teeth. She felt so nervous that she was almost unable to breathe!

“Yes, of course I do!” Ye Shaochen was slightly stunned. He looked at Xia Luobing and Huo Yunqi and smiled. “I’ve always treated her like my own sister. Otherwise, would I let her stay with me for so long?”

Huo Yunqi stared at Ye Shaochen as if he wanted to see through his opponent’s thoughts, “Ye Shaochen, you know that Bing Bing is not talking about this!”

Xia Luobing glared at Ye Shaochen , “Like is like, don’t like is not like, give a good word!”

Ye Shaochen ‘s face was full of black lines. Finally, he sighed helplessly, “I really treat her as a little sister. She is definitely not a man and woman. Isn’t this clear enough?”

“Enough!” Huo Yunxi opened the door and stood at the door of the study. His eyes were a little red and swollen. He walked up to the three of them and nodded at Ye Shaochen . “Sorry to have disturbed you during this period of time, but it won’t happen again!”

Without waiting for Ye Shaochen to speak, Huo Yunxi dragged Xia Luobing’s hand and said, “Sister-in-law, let’s go home!”

When he reached the door, Huo Yunxi stopped and said to Ye Shaochen , “I don’t lack big brother, so I won’t cause trouble for Ye Shaochen !”

Ye Shaochen couldn’t tell what he felt when he saw the door slammed shut. After a while, he turned to Huo Yunqi and said stiffly, “What does she mean?”

“You won’t be her lover, and she won’t be your sister!” Huo Yunqi looked at Ye Shaochen meaningfully, “You shut your heart too tightly. In fact, she can squeeze in with a slight crack.”

Unexpectedly, Ye Shaochen did not refute and fell silent.

When Huo Yunqi returned home, Huo Yunxi had already fallen asleep. Xia Luobing was in a daze in her room and gritted her teeth as she muttered, “Ye Shaochen really doesn’t know what’s good about him. What a nice girl Yun Xi is. He still doesn’t like her! Is there something wrong with his brain?”

She had already treated Huo Yunxi as her younger sister, but now that the little girl’s eyes were crying like walnuts, it would be strange if she wasn’t angry!

“Why didn’t I notice that you were so defensive before?” Huo Yunqi took off his coat and sat on the chair opposite Xiao Luobing, teasing her.

After what happened tonight, the relationship between the two of them seemed to have eased up a lot.

Xia Luobing’s cheeks bulged with anger as she glared at Huo Yunqi, “It’s Yun Xi who’s been bullied now! How can you say such sarcastic words?”

She really regretted not giving Ye Shaochen a fat beating before coming back!

“Bing Bing, Shaochen has his own reasons. You don’t understand him.” Huo Yunqi frowned and said, “And if he really doesn’t like Yunxi, he can’t force it!”

Although she knew that Huo Yunqi’s words were reasonable, Xia Luobing was still quite unhappy, “I only know if I like it after getting along with her … What if I suddenly like it?”

“What about you?” Huo Yunqi looked at Xia Luobing and blurted out. They were from strangers to intimacy, and from intimacy to strangers. Could they still get along slowly and like her again?

Xia Luobing was stunned for a moment. He turned his head away from Huo Yunqi and finally noticed that the man was still staring at him. He stood up irritably and said, “We still have half a year left in our contract. Next summer, I will be free!”

Huo Yunqi’s expression darkened, but a faint smile quickly appeared on his face. Although Xia Luobing still resisted him, his attitude had obviously softened a lot, didn’t he?

Moreover, she had already said that she could get along with him slowly. What if she suddenly liked him?

The New Year passed very quickly. Because the Ten Miles Golden Beach Project was at a critical stage, Huo Yunqi went to the company early to preside over the overall situation. At the regular meeting, all the shareholders praised Feng Shuo ‘s ability.

“President, according to the current progress of the Ten Miles Golden Beach, the project should be completed in two months, and the construction period can be advanced by one month.” Li Xiaoren said happily, ” President Feng ‘s strength really makes us old fellows admire him!”

Huo Yunqi raised his eyebrows and looked at Feng Shuo , who always had a warm smile on his face. He smiled faintly, “Of course I’m at ease with President Feng staring at me.”

At the end of the meeting, Huo Yunqi and Feng Shuo both tacitly stayed behind, their eyes facing each other with murderous intent.

“Since it’s so hard, don’t drink and drive. What if the next time you hit your ribs, it’s your brain instead of your ribs? Isn’t it the company’s loss?” Huo Yunqi said coldly.

Feng Shuo slipped half a meter behind his rotating chair and placed one hand on his raised knee. He looked at Yunqi provocatively, “I didn’t die in the car accident. You must feel very sorry, right?”

She clearly knew that there was no need to suppress Huo Yunqi for a while, but seeing Xiao Luobing say “I do” to him in her holy wedding dress and seeing the two of them kiss in front of so many people, her unwillingness grew like weeds.

He called her and she actually died!

Anger and frustration made him drink a lot of wine, but when he drove back, he crashed into the railing. During the few days in the hospital, he thought more clearly that one day he would trample Yunqi Huo under his feet!

“You’re right, I’m very regretful!” Huo Yunqi stood up and looked down at Feng Shuo . He could see the unwillingness in the man’s eyes, and the mockery at the corner of his mouth became even more obvious. “Farewell to the last hug? Feng Shuo , should I say that you are pretentious, or should I praise your methods?”

After listening to Xia Luobing’s explanation that day, Huo Yunqi immediately understood that it was only a means for Feng Shuo to retreat!

Feng Shuo ‘s expression turned cold. He held the table with one hand and was about to stand up. However, when he saw the mockery in Huo Yunqi’s eyes, he sat back in his chair and smiled proudly, “Huo Yunqi, the competition between us has only just begun!”

Whether it was the Huo Clan’s property or Xia Luobing , it would be his!

“But you’ve already lost in the beginning!” Huo Yunqi sneered.

Feng Shuo ‘s face was already filled with rage. Huo Yunqi was right, he had lost completely in the matter of Xia Luobing !

“Huo Yunqi, the one who laughs until the end is the real winner!” Feng Shuo glared at Huo Yunqi.

“Wait and see!” Huo Yunqi stood up and left. When he passed Feng Shuo , a cold smile appeared on his lips. The woman who coveted him also wanted to see if she had the strength to do so!

Feng Shuo ‘s face was ashen and his eyes were wide open. He clenched his right fist and smashed it onto the desk. He gritted his teeth and said, “Huo Yunqi, I will definitely trample you on the soles of my feet and leave you with nothing!”

After the New Year, many hotel restaurants reopened, bustling with activity.

After work, Xiao Luobing and Intoxicated were sitting in a spicy fragrant pot restaurant eating heartily. Her forehead was already covered in fine sweat.

“Student Bing Bing, how is your life after marriage?” Intoxicated, he drank a mouthful of orange juice and began his best gossip, “Do you want to share with us the wonderful life of a young lady from a wealthy family?”

She knew from Huo Yunxi that the relationship between Xia Luobing and Huo Yunqi was not as incompatible as they thought. They were even very harmonious, so she dared to ask.

Xiao Luobing rolled her eyes at Tao Zui . She picked up the Flammulina velutipes from the bowl and put them on a plate. She ate with relish and was not prepared to talk about Tao Zui at all.

“Hey, Young Madam Huo, did you listen to me?” Intoxicated, her eyes flashed with flowers as she continued to ask. She had no intention of letting Xiao Luobing off at all. “What an ice! Tell me!”

Xiao Luobing took a sip of the drink, put down her chopsticks, held her chin with both hands, and blinked a few times at Intoxication. “Tell me, Intoxicated Student, what do you want to know?”

“Are you in harmony?” Intoxicated, he asked, “Huo Yunqi … how is he?”
