The second-generation nouveau riche was in so much pain that he was screaming on the ground. He felt as if his entire body was about to fall apart.
Yun Qing looked at the man’s broad back in front of her, and her heart pounded.
The air was filled with the familiar scent of perfume and the faint smell of alcohol.
Huo Chuan stood just a short distance away from her, protecting her.
If it was before, she would definitely be tempted and only want to go with him.
But now, she would definitely not be tempted by this man.
Huo Chuan’s hand was still holding her wrist, extremely firmly.
They had been married for three years, but he had never held her hand so firmly.
Even on the day of their wedding, the symbolic hand-holding was just a hollow handshake.
Yun Qing came back to her senses and quickly broke free from Huo Chuan’s hand, retreating backward.
Her struggle made Huo Chuan frown slightly. His heart was filled with bitterness.
Did she hate him so much now?
“God, Yu Yong, are you crazy? How dare you provoke Yun Qing?!”
Lin Yu had originally followed Huo Chuan to the bar. When he saw the commotion, he was so shocked that his eyes widened. He walked out from the crowd.
The Yu family’s company was only a small company. How dare he climb over Yun Qing’s head?
He actually wanted to hit Yun Qing?
He really did not know what was good for him!
The people around were also as surprised as Lin Yu, but they were not surprised that this man called Yu Yong would treat Yun Qing like this, but that Huo Chuan actually rushed out to protect Yun Qing.
Didn’t the two of them just have a terrible breakup?
“Yun Qing, are you okay?”
Gu Zhi rushed over and held Yun Qing’s hand, her face full of anxiety.
Yun Qing shook her head. To the CEO of the Yun Corporation, such a small matter was not enough to unnerve her.
However, Huo Chuan’s appearance had been beyond her expectations.
“Who, who dares to hit me… Huo, President Huo…”
Yu Yong had just regained his senses and wanted to curse. However, when he saw that the man standing in front of him was Huo Chuan, his expression immediately changed and he was immediately cowed.
His heart was beating like a drum, and he was also extremely shocked.
Didn’t Huo Chuan have a feud with Yun Qing?
Why would he still beat him up for Yun Qing?
However, Yu Yong knew of Huo Chuan’s reputation, and he did not dare to offend this big shot. He quickly nodded and bowed as he explained, “President, President Huo, I just saw this woman always smearing your name and I wanted to help you teach her a lesson…”
However, just as he finished his sentence, Huo Chuan kicked him and made him fall to the ground again.
“Teach Yun Qing a lesson? Who are you?”
Huo Chuan’s voice was cold, and the bar was like an ice cellar under the warm atmosphere.
Lin Yu looked at Huo Chuan and Yu Yong, then looked at Yun Qing, who was watching everything coldly. He hurriedly explained to Yun Qing, “Yun Qing, don’t misunderstand. Huo and I do not know this man. It’s his own brain that’s sick…”
Now Lin Yu finally understood that Huo Chuan had feelings for Yun Qing.
As a good brother, Lin Yu also wanted to help Huo Chuan.
Yun Qing did not care about Lin Yu’s explanation at all. She looked at Gu Zhi and said, “Let’s go somewhere else to play. This place is inauspicious.”
She, of course, meant Huo Chuan.
Huo Chuan’s heart sank.
He thought that Yun Qing would change her opinion of him after seeing him protect her.
However, she did not seem to change her opinion of him at all.
She still did not want to see him as a person.
Yun Qing did not even glance at Huo Chuan. She picked up her bag and walked out with Gu Zhi, leaving everyone’s eyes behind her.
“Yun Qing.”
Huo Chuan finally caught up to her and stopped Yun Qing, who was walking to the entrance of the bar.
Yun Qing did not turn around, but she still stopped in her tracks.
“President Huo, what do you want? Do you still think that you haven’t caused Yun Qing enough misery?”
Gu Zhi stood up and mocked Huo Chuan.
Huo Chuan ignored Gu Zhi’s words and fixed his gaze on Yun Qing. He said, “Yun Qing… Bai Ting has been locked up. She has received the punishment she deserves.”
“Can we… be friends?”
This was the first time he had taken such an initiative toward a woman.
When he was married to Yun Qing, he had never thought that one day he would take such an initiative toward her.
After he clearly understood Bai Ting’s character, Huo Chuan felt that he had let Yun Qing down.
