Chapter 14: You won't understand after all
Jiang Yu ignored the gazes of the people nearby, she walked up to Huo Shiqian, and smiled at him as she said: "It's such a coincidence, you're here too."
Su Hanxuan squeezed her hands and said: "Young Master Huo, do you know each other?"
Huo Shiqian didn't reply to Su Hanxuan's question, he focused on Jiang Yu who was pulling down his sleeve. His eyebrow twitched imperceptibly as he looked down at her fingers which were pinker due to her pinching hard.
He didn't say anything, nor did he pull away from her hand. But, in the eyes of everyone, this is him silently acknowledging her behavior. It seems that this girl has a very close relationship with Young Master Huo...
"I came to see my friend." She pointed to Bai Xiaotang: "You are going to eat, right? Can I tag along?"
Huo Shiqian nodded slightly then looked at her hand again. As if on cue, Jiang Yu withdrew his hand, not noticing the complicated look that fleeted in his eyes.
Why does he seem to always unconsciously give way when it comes to her?
The group went to a nearby restaurant in a low-key manner. The director was sitting on Huo Shiqian's right. Su Hanxuan was about to move to his left, only to see Jiang Yu sitting there before her.
She lowered her head and bit her lip, trying to hide her unresigned expression. Then she conveniently sat to the director's right, inadvertently throwing glances at Huo Shiqian.
She has liked Huo Shiqian for a long time. In fact, since she first met him at the annual meeting when she signed a contract with Huaye Film and Television as a newcomer.
At that time, he had just graduated and joined Huo company as the CEO. He looked exceptionally handsome and elegant in the crowded reception hall that he immediately stole her heart. Ever since then, she has been working hard to be worthy of him.
She hasn't seen Huo Shiqian very much in recent years, but she has never heard of him dating a woman. The appearance of Jiang Yu today gave her a strong sense of crisis. She could feel that Huo Shiqian treated her differently, the intimate way she called him and the small gestures made her uncontrollably jealous.
Jiang Yu felt Su Hanxuan glaring at her, she hooked up her red lips, and leaned closer to Huo Shiqian, pointing with her hand: "Can you help me get a tissue."
Song Li looked at her in surprise. When did President Huo get so close to a woman?
He doesn't know if he didn't want Jiang Yu to lose face in front of others or what. But, Huo Shiqian calmly helped her take the tissue.
In fact, Jiang Yu was also a little nervous. Based on her current relationship with Huo Shiqian, she was not sure of his reaction at all, it was purely gambling. Fortunately, she didn't lose.
She lowered her eyes to eat quietly, her mood was complicated. She didn't even care about Su Hanxuan anymore.
When the luncheon ended, Bai Xiaotang pulled Jiang Yu, and as they fell behind she asked her in a low voice, "What is going on between you two?" Huo Shiqian was treating her differently.
Jiang Yu's gaze fell on the figure in question: "He probably... didn't want to embarrass his ex-blind date partner and current neighbor?"
"Jiang Yu, I think even if he lost his memory, he might not necessarily have forgotten about you..."
She looked at Bai Xiaotang dumbfounded, What does that even mean?
Bai Xiaotang glanced at her: "Some things are so important they're engraved in the heart, so much that they can never be forgotten... Forget it, you won't understand after all..."
Jiang Yu:?
How do you know this stuff when you've been single your whole life?
In fact, she understood what Bai Xiaotang meant, but the object was Huo Shiqian, she really didn't have much confidence.
"Where is the energy you used to chase Huo Shiqian?" She patted her shoulder: "If it doesn't work the first time, there is always the second time..."
Jiang Yu narrowed her eyes slightly as watched Su Hanxuan's approaching Huo Shiqian: "Can you change the female lead in this drama?"
Finally, update 5/5, I'm done. Man, that was hard.
