As long as he recovered, she would no longer have to shoulder the billion Yuan debt!
Huo Yunshen: “…”
No wonder she was being so proactive. It turned out that she only wanted to lift the debt from her.
Was she in such a hurry to make a clean break from him?
He sighed and felt as if his heart was bleeding as he replayed Xu Xiyan’s conversation with her grandfather in his mind, how she had said that he was just an “ordinary friend” to her. How could he turn their relationship into something more than just ordinary friendship?
Huo Yunshen wanted to invite Xu Xiyan to lunch, but she still had work and had to rush over to the studio. So he ordered the driver to drive to the film studio.
On the way to the film studio, Huo Yunshen ordered the driver to stop and let Yi Xiao out. He went into a restaurant called Tong Fu House to get a lunch box for Xu Xiyan.
Xu Xiyan opened the lid and looked at the delicious and exquisitely prepared food inside. Somewhat surprised, she asked, “They don’t do takeaways at Tong Fu House. Yi Xiao, how was it possible that you could get the food from Tong Fu House within 2 minutes?”
Yi Xiao chuckled. “The young master ordered the food in advance. He knew that you would have no time to eat, so he decided to order a lunch box for you.”
So it was Huo Yunshen again. Why was he always this thoughtful?
“Mr. Huo, you are too kind.” Xu Xiyan smiled at Huo Yunshen and gave him a thumbs up.
Huo Yunshen sat slumped in his wheelchair, leaning his head on his hand. There was a hint of sultriness in his shimmering melancholic eyes.
Was he trying to kill her with his devilish good looks?
“It must be tiring,” Huo Yunshen said, “being an actor and still having to be my caretaker. This is nothing compared to what you have done for me.”
Huo Yunshen meant that this was just a small favor and it was not worth mentioning.
“You should eat now!” he said, smiling lightly, his dimples appearing on his cheeks.
“Okay!” Xu Xiyan said, smiling. She picked up her lunch box and started to eat big mouthfuls.
The food from Tong Fu House was much better than the lunch prepared at the studio. The food was so delicious that Xu Xiyan was gobbling it up.
Xu Xiyan ate too fast and felt something get stuck in her throat. She looked around for a drink, but Huo Yunshen had already opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it to her.
Xu Xiyan took the bottle, gulped down the water and felt better.
Oh my…
What a perfect gentleman; he really understood her needs.
…
Huo Yunshen dropped Xu Xiyan off at the studio gates. Xu Xiyan waved goodbye to him after she got down.
After the van drove away, Xu Xiyan walked onto the studio grounds.
At the same time, a grey S Class Mercedes Benz pulled up to the studio grounds. Chu Yuhe, who was in the driver’s seat, was surprised to find Xu Xiyan walking on the side of the road.
Chu Yuhe sneered.
Heh. Xu Xiyan, Xu Xiyan…you just had to snub the easy way and take the hard way out, didn’t you? Today’s your unlucky day for crossing paths with me.
He slammed on the gas and his Mercedes Benz let out a roar. He swerved the car to the right and blocked Xu Xiyan on the side of the road.
Xu Xiyan was shocked by the sudden appearance of the car. Before she could curse the crazy driver, someone got out and walked towards her imposingly.
It’s that bastard, Chu Yuhe!
“Chu Yuhe, do you even know how to drive? You almost hit me!” Xu Xiyan said angrily.
Chu Yuhe said nothing and immediately grabbed her wrist, dragging her towards a secluded place.
“Let go! Get your dirty hands off me! Do you hear me!?”
Xu Xiyan tried to shake off his grip several times, but she did not succeed.
When he had dragged her into a small patch of trees, Xu Xiyan finally managed to shake him off.
“What the f**k are you doing?” she scolded. “Are you out of your mind?”
