Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Huo Xunzhou, what do you mean? Are you implying that I’m an outsider?”

Cheng Fanjing raised her head and looked around. She was aware of the other people around her, so she stood up without losing her composure.

Huo Xunzhou ignored her words and said coldly, “Miss Cheng, if you don’t accept my apology, I’ll convey your intentions to my father.”

Cheng Fanjing was stumped by Huo Xunzhou’s words.

It was true that she deliberately put on airs and refused to accept the apology earlier because she looked down on Huo Xunzhou.

Everyone in Capital City knew that the only son of the Huo family had been wandering outside since he was young. The patriarch of the Huo family, Huo Zhuxiu, loved his nephew Huo Chaosheng very much. In the early years, everyone thought that Huo Chaosheng would be the future heir of the Huo family.

Unexpectedly, the only son of the Huo family returned.

Unfortunately, he was a cripple.

Huo Zhuxiu did not neglect Huo Chaosheng just because Huo Xunzhou had returned to the Huo Family. Huo Chaosheng could still do whatever he wanted in the Huo Family.

As a result, some people speculated that the Huo family might still fall into Huo Chaosheng’s hands in the future.

This was one of the reasons why Cheng Fanjing did not want to marry Huo Xunzhou.

She was the daughter of the Cheng family. Even if it was a marriage alliance, she had to marry the most powerful man and become the most glorious woman in the upper-class circle.

Marrying Huo Chaosheng was the safest option!

She detested the fact that Huo Chaosheng and Huo Xunzhou were in a good relationship. As long as she still wanted to marry Huo Chaosheng, she could not fall out with Huo Xunzhou.

Cheng Fanjing quickly calmed down.

“Mr. Huo, you’ve misunderstood me. I don’t mind such a minor matter.” Cheng Fanjing smiled and gestured for the waiter to pour her a drink.

The waiter quickly opened a new bottle of wine and brought it over. Cheng

Fanjing instructed, “Fill it up.”

After raising her glass, Cheng Fanjing lifted her head and drank it all in one go. Huo Chaosheng sneered and ignored her.

Huo Xunzhou asked the waiter to bring him a glass of warm water. Then, he lowered his head and turned sideways to coax Lin Shanchu to drink some water.

Cheng Fanjing was completely ignored.

However, she could only endure the humiliation.

Huo Zhuxiu had asked Huo Xunzhou to apologize to her because they respected the Cheng Family, but not Cheng Fanjing.

If she did not finish this meal before leaving, it would be a slap in Huo Zhuxiu’s face.

She could not afford the consequences if the friendship between the two families was really jeopardized later.

The meal ended on a sour note.

Lin Shanchu had drunk so much wine that she neither had an appetite nor ate much.

When it was time for them to leave, Huo Chaosheng wanted to get closer to Lin Shanchu, but Huo Xunzhou pushed him away.

“Take Miss Cheng home.”

“…Third Brother, I… I think I should take Lin Shanchu…”

Huo Xunzhou interrupted him, “I’ll take her back to the hotel.”

Huo Chaosheng replied reluctantly, “…Alright then.”

First, Huo Xunzhou allowed He Xiang to help Lin Shanchu get into the car. After watching Huo Chaosheng and Cheng Fanjing leave in the same car, he asked Li MO to help him get into the car.

While supporting Lin Shanchu, He Xiang asked Huo Xunzhou, “Teacher Huo, why did Sister Lin drink so much?”

Lin Shanchu slumped against the seat, staring ahead without an unfocused gaze.

“I drank it myself.”

Li MO started the car. Lin Shanchu swayed along with the car for a while before Huo Xunzhou pulled her into his arms.

“Let’s rest for a while. We’ll reach the hotel soon.” His tone was a little stiff.

He Xiang’s eyes widened.

She really wanted to know what had happened at Boya Hotel.

The group returned to the hotel.

When Qi Cheng came to open the door, he said, “Shanshan, you’re really something. You’ve really become trending… President Huo?”

When Qi Cheng saw Huo Xunzhou, he was stunned for a moment and gave He Xiang a questioning look.

He Xiang shook her head, indicating that she did not know what had happened.

Only then did Qi Cheng notice that something was wrong with Lin Shanchu.

“Shanshan?” Qi Cheng smelled the alcohol on her and asked, “Did you drink?

How much did you drink? Come in quickly…”

After the group entered the room, He Xiang helped Lin Shanchu into the room so that she could get some rest.

“Sister Lin, lie down first. I’ll get you some water.”

After He Xiang stood up and turned around, she saw Huo Xunzhou sitting quietly in his wheelchair.

She did not know when he had followed her and come into the room.

“Teacher Huo, I’ll go out first…” He Xiang was shocked.

The door closed.

Huo Xunzhou moved to the bedside.

Lin Shanchu rolled over with her back facing Huo Xunzhou.

She felt dizzy and weak, but her consciousness was still clear. She did not forget that she was still angry at him.

“Do you still feel uncomfortable?”

Huo Xunzhou’s voice was pleasant to the ear. When he lowered his voice, it was exceptionally gentle.

Lin Shanchu couldn’t help but reply, “What do you think?”

Huo Xunzhou was silent for two seconds before he spoke, “I ordered some hangover soup. It’ll be delivered in a while.” His voice was gentler than before.

How could she be angry at him?

Lin Shanchu turned over and sat up. Huo Xunzhou reached out to help her, but she grabbed his hand and bit it hard.

Huo Xunzhou frowned slightly but he did not pull his hand away and let her bite him.

Lin Shanchu raised her head and looked at the neat row of teeth marks she had left behind. “You deserve it.”

Huo Xunzhou chuckled and pulled her into his arms.

Lin Shanchu struggled for a while before lying obediently in his arms.

There was a faint joy in his voice. “Shanshan, you are unreasonable. You ran away without a word and started scolding me as soon as you met me.” He made it sound as if she had no conscience.

Lin Shanchu was not convinced and struggled to get out of his arms to argue with him.

“I wanted to help you vent your anger at Boya Hotel, but you held me down and didn’t let me move…”

Huo Xunzhou did not let go of her, so her voice was muffled.

Huo Xunzhou fell silent for a moment before he said seriously, “Maybe next time.”

His tone sounded a little expectant?

Lin Shanchu looked up at him in confusion.

Huo Xunzhou lowered his head and kissed her.

After a long kiss, both of them were panting.

After calming down for a while, Huo Xunzhou began to explain to her, “I know what happened these two days. I was the one who gave Chaosheng the idea to snatch Cheng Fanjing’s qipao.”

“You?” Lin Shanchu looked at him with her eyes wide open. Then, she said, “I

” see.

Huo Chaosheng loathed Cheng Fanjing, but how did he know that Cheng Fanjing had ordered a qipao?

It turned out to be Huo Xunzhou’s idea.

In that case, a question arose.

“How did you know that Cheng Fanjing ordered a qipao?”

Lin Shanchu pushed Huo Xunzhou away and narrowed her eyes, pretending to be angry.

“When Cheng Fanjing first hired Internet trolls to target you, I investigated her…

After thinking for a while, Huo Xunzhou added, “However, there’s really nothing to investigate about her.”

A daughter of a wealthy family like Cheng Fanjing did not need to work. She dressed up all day, went to exhibitions, traveled and attended banquets. She had nothing else to do.

Therefore, Huo Xunzhou managed to find out about trifles like what kind of banquets Cheng Fanjing attended, what exhibitions she went to and how many clothes she ordered..
