To My Dear Mr. Huo

Chapter 677: Zhan Haoze, Do You Dare

In a quiet room, two men were lying on the same bed.

One was on top, and the other was on the bottom. Their positions were romantically ambiguous, but the atmosphere was completely different.

Zhan Haoze didn’t expect Shi Mengwan to ask such a question, and the air suddenly fell silent.

He still had an injury on his abdomen, and he had been supporting himself for a long time, so it caused a slight throbbing pain.

His expression changed slightly because of the pain. In Shi Mengwan’s eyes, this change was proof that he didn’t want to acknowledge her.

Shi Mengwan sneered. It seemed like she wasn’t surprised at this outcome.

She let go of his hand and gently pushed him aside. Just as she was about to get up, Zhan Haoze grabbed her hand again.

“Wanwan.”

“Let go.”

“It’s not what you think.”

Zhan Haoze rarely explained things to others. His brothers had been with him for a long time.

There were many things that he didn’t need to say or explain. They were all carried out directly and few people questioned his words.

“Then what is it? Tell me. I’ll listen.”

Shi Mengwan waited for him to explain. Even if she would really be together with him, she hoped he could understand his desires.

Even if they couldn’t be together, she hoped that they could break up cleanly and resolutely.

Zhan Haoze had been supporting himself for a long time. Now, he simply sat up and pulled her to sit up with him.

His actions pulled on his wound. He moaned in an extremely low voice. It was only then that Shi Mengwan realized that Zhan Haoze seemed to be injured.

She turned her face away and forced herself not to be soft-hearted and not to give in.

“Wanwan, I can’t reveal our relationship for the time being.”

Shi Mengwan sneered and turned her face away, feeling that it was only natural. She knew that this person was just putting it nicely.

“I’m sorry.” Zhan Haoze rarely said sorry to others. There were even fewer women who could make him say sorry.

“I –”

Zhan Haoze thought of Zhan Kun, the matters of the Zhan family in Qing City, and his current situation.

He closed his eyes. “Chen Feifei has a heart condition. She can’t stand emotional trauma. I owe her father a debt of gratitude. Therefore, I can’t leave the Chen family for the time being.”

Shi Mengwan turned around and looked at Zhan Haoze. She simply looked at him.

“She has a heart condition and she likes you. She wants to get engaged with you, so you agreed?”

“I didn’t agree.” In fact, ever since Chen Feifei had a heart attack, Chen Yongchang had always wanted them to get engaged, but he didn’t agree to it, and he didn’t want to agree to it.

But then, Chen Feifei was scared half to death after Chen Feifei almost got attacked.

She had a weak heart to begin with, so Chen Yongchang decided to get them engaged.

Perhaps he was afraid that Zhan Haoze would be unhappy if he knew, Chen Yongchang didn’t tell him, and only said that the Chen Corporation was holding an anniversary celebration.

The Chen Corporation’s anniversary celebration was around the same time. As the Director of the Chen Corporation, it was impossible for Zhan Haoze not to attend.

When he went to Junxia, he found out that Chen Yongchang and Chen Feifei actually wanted him to get engaged to Chen Feifei, and they didn’t reveal any information about it to him.

At that time, Zhan Haoze couldn’t just walk away without any scruples, so when Chen Yongchang asked him to go on stage, he could only go up.

After that, Chen Yongchang said a lot of nice things to him in private. He explained for a long time and finally said that if he really wasn’t willing, he could wait until Chen Feifei’s health improved before breaking off the engagement with Chen Feifei.

As for now, it was better to let Chen Feifei rest and recuperate.

This way, even if Zhan Haoze didn’t agree, it would create the reality of the engagement. However, in his heart, he didn’t agree.

“Wanwan, we’re not what you think we are.”

“Understood, it’s not what I think. It’s just that you want to repay her,” Shi Mengwan said and she scoffed, “But Zhan Haoze, although the Chen family has done you a favor and Chen Feifei has a heart condition, what does that have to do with me? Since you’re so protective of her and can’t bear to part with her, you can go to her side and take good care of her. Why are you looking for me?”

“Wanwan –”

“Do you know what you’re doing?” Shi Mengwan said bluntly, “Scumbag.”

“Shi Mengwan.” Zhan Haoze looked at her with disapproval written all over his face.

Shi Mengwan smiled, but that smile didn’t reach her eyes at all. “Aren’t you a scumbag? You’re afraid of hurting Chen Feifei, yet you’re hanging on to me? Do I owe you something? Why do I have to swallow my pride like this? Or is it because I’m so gullible in your heart? You can make me do whatever you want?”

“I didn’t mean that.”

“But you’ve already done it.” Shi Mengwan’s face was full of mockery, and she didn’t give in at all. “Aren’t you afraid of hurting Chen Feifei while hanging on to me?”

Zhan Haoze looked at Shi Mengwan but didn’t explain. In fact, he couldn’t explain.

Because he couldn’t let her know the real reason at all.

“I’m not afraid of hurting Chen Feifei. I just don’t want to be an ungrateful person. The Chen family has done me a favor. Although I don’t like Chen Feifei, I also don’t want anything to happen to her.”

“Right, you can’t let anything happen to her, so you can let something happen to me.”

Shi Mengwan couldn’t take it anymore. She turned around and was about to get off the bed when Zhan Haoze held her hand. “Don’t be like this.”

“Then what do you want me to do?” Shi Mengwan shook his hand away. “Accept the truth? Accept the fact that you’re with me, but you have to take care of another woman’s emotions?”

“I didn’t –”

“Don’t say that you don’t mean that. Just tell me directly. How long do you plan to take care of her? And how long do you plan to hide our relationship?”

Zhan Haoze didn’t avoid this question. Instead, he looked at Shi Mengwan very seriously. “It won’t be too long. Give me some time, I’ll solve it.”

“Unfortunately, I don’t believe you.”

Zhan Haoze’s face darkened because of her words.

Shi Mengwan didn’t want to continue talking. She left the bed and stood on the other side of the bed.

“Okay, that’s it. Zhan Haoze, you and I will go our separate ways.”

He liked to take care of Chen Feifei, so he should go take care of her. She wasn’t going to keep him company.

She still had to go to the organizing committee to see the results of the semi-finals today, so she didn’t have time to waste with Zhan haoze. After entering the bathroom, she washed up and changed her clothes. Shi Mengwan was ready to leave.

Zhan haoze stood up at this moment. “Wanwan, I –”

“Enough, Zhan Haoze.” He had already said a lot today. “Don’t say anymore. Either you break up with me and we have nothing to do with each other, or you leave Chen Feifei, then go back to Lin City to announce that you’re not engaged and it’s all a misunderstanding. What do you think?”

Zhan Haoze’s face darkened. At this moment, he couldn’t possibly do that.

In that moment of silence and hesitation, Shi Mengwan had already picked up her bag and headed for the door.

Just as she was about to leave, Zhan haoze once again blocked her way.

“Wanwan –”

“Zhan Haoze, I’ll say it again. Either you do what you promised me, or you leave this place. There’s no third choice.”

Thinking of pushing him away, she raised her hand. The moment she raised her hand, she thought of his bodily injury again.

She gritted her teeth and walked past him. This time, Zhan Haoze didn’t stop her.

After leaving the door, she breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt a sense of loss.

She believed what Zhan Haoze said. He was such a proud person, so he wouldn’t lie.

But so what if what he said was true? What could he change?

Chen Feifei had a heart condition and needed his care. She wasn’t well, so didn’t he have to take care of her all the time?

He had to take care of her as long as her heart condition didn’t get better.

He really valued friendship and loyalty. Unfortunately, she didn’t want to waste time with him.

“Sister Shi, you’re up so early?”

As soon as she left, Little Ji and Tongyan had already woken up and were here.

“Sister Shi, are you nervous?”

“I’m not nervous.” Shi Mengwan shook her head. Compared to what she was worried about, there was really nothing to be nervous about. “If we can pass, we can pass. If we can’t pass, we can play for a few days as a vacation. To thinking about it, there’s nothing bad about it.”

“Sister Shi, your attitude is really good.”

Xiao Ji was practically worshipping her. Shi Mengwan smiled and once again suppressed her depressed mood.

“Let’s go.”

To Shi Mengwan’s surprise, she actually passed the semi-finals.

Among the ten finalists, but she was ranked ninth. This was really a great piece of good news for her.

Little Ji and Tong Yan were extremely happy. The two of them hugged her and congratulated her continuously.

Shi Mengwan smiled. This was what they said — a disappointment in love would lead to a triumph in career, right?

After passing the semi-finals, the next ten people who passed were ready to participate in the finals.

“We’ve already prepared the venue for the finals. For the next seven days, you will need to stay at the place we’ve prepared. You will need to draw and design a finished product here until you’ve finished your work.”

“Because the venue is a little far, you can go back and pack your things now. Gather here in the afternoon. We’ll have a car to send you to the venue.”

The organizing committee member explained the rules again. Shi Mengwan and Little Ji remembered it very seriously. After recording it down, they decided to go back to the hotel to pack their luggage first and then come over to gather in the afternoon.

Shi Mengwan went back to the hotel with Little Ji and the others. Little Ji stood at the door of the room and looked at Shi Mengwan.

“Sister Shi, do you want us to help you pack?”

“No need.” Shi Mengwan shook her head. “You guys go pack your things. We’ll go out for dinner later.”

“Okay, Sister Shi. It’s still early anyway. We can rest after we finish eating.”

Shi Mengwan nodded. Now, she just didn’t know where the organizing committee had arranged for them.

Shi Mengwan thought Zhan Haoze had already left, so she didn’t expect him to still be in the room.

Seeing that he hadn’t left yet, Shi Mengwan’s expression didn’t look too pleasant.

“Why haven’t you left yet?”

Zhan Haoze stood up. “Wanwan –”

“Don’t call me.” Shi Mengwan took a step back and was about to open the door for him to leave when someone knocked on the door first.

Shi Mengwan was shocked. She stood at the door but didn’t rush to open the door. Instead, she peeked through the peephole.

When she saw who it was, she was shocked again. It was actually Wan Xianyang.
