Huo Ci shrugged noncommittally and smiled at him. “Second Brother, I think you better not chase after her now.”
His second sister-in-law seemed to have a problem with Second Brother because of him. Women were the most unreasonable creatures. If he went over, she would definitely not give him a good attitude.
Yan Yuanfei instructed Yu Bo to follow him. He turned around and looked at Huo Ci with a cold, handsome face. “Tell me what’s going on. Aren’t you done fooling around? Have you learned how to kidnap people?”
“Who said I kidnapped someone? Where’s the evidence?” Huo Ci still wanted to sit on the sofa, but after being glared at fiercely, he sighed deeply. “I didn’t do anything. That brat accused me of being a thief last night and even ran away after hitting me.”
Yan Yuanfei did not believe him. “Can you be beaten up?”
Was he sure that he had not hit someone else? How many people in the entire capital dared to hit him? Even if they did, who was his match?
“Look.” Huo Ci pointed at his eyes. “Look at what she gave me. That pretty boy is very skilled. But what’s her relationship with Second Sister-in-law?”
Yan Yuanfei frowned slightly and warned him sternly, “Don’t call her names in front of her.”
Huo Ci rolled his eyes at him and said matter-of-factly, “She’s the Second Sister-in-law to begin with. If I don’t call her Second Sister-in-law, what do you want me to call her?”
“At least not now. We’ll talk about it when we’re together.” Yan Yuanfei was actually very happy to hear him call her Second Sister-in-law.
“F*ck, Second Brother, you can’t be serious!” Huo Ci looked at him in disbelief, his tone full of disdain. “You haven’t gotten together with her even now, right? I’m not criticizing you, but you can’t do this. Your progress is too slow. If you like her, hurry up and woo her!”
“Do you think I’m like you?” Yan Yuanfei glanced at him in disdain. “Don’t interfere in my business.”
“Second Brother, is she unwilling? Let me tell you, you still have to take the initiative to woo women. They don’t mean what they say. Although they say they don’t want to, they don’t actually think that way.” Huo Ci shared his experience wooing women with him. “As a man, you still have to be more unyielding. You can’t go along with everything.”
“Shut up.” Yan Yuanfei looked in the direction of the door, his eyes gentle. “She’s different from your girlfriends. Don’t compare those women to her.”
Huo Ci muttered unhappily, “They’re all women. How are they different?”
Why did he make it sound like his girlfriends were all very bad? All his ex-girlfriends were fair-skinned, beautiful, and had long legs. They were also obedient to him.
“Don’t cause me trouble in the future. If I catch you again, I won’t let you off so easily.” Yan Yuanfei didn’t want to talk to him either. How could he have the cheek to say that about his girlfriends?
“I understand.” Huo Ci had not expected that pretty boy to know Second Sister-in-law. However, he said, “Second Brother, let me remind you. That pretty boy is quite good-looking. I think Second Sister-in-law is very worried about her. Be careful.”
The expression in Yan Yuanfei’s eyes changed slightly, and he said in a low voice, “They’re just friends.”
He had thought that the Yu’er Shui Shui was talking about was a girl. He had not expected it to be a man. However, since it was a man, why was the name so strange?
Huo Ci smiled but did not speak.
“Don’t make things difficult for her in the future. Let this matter pass,” Yan Yuanfei reminded him.
“Okay,” Huo Ci replied casually as he walked forward with his hands in the pockets of his school uniform. He was handsome and unruly. After taking a few steps forward, he ran.
“Sixth Brother!” Upon seeing him escape, Yan Yuanfei shouted, “Don’t let him escape! Catch him!”
Huo Ci’s movements were fast, and his figure was swift. In a moment, he had already rushed out of the encirclement. He rode the motorcycle that was parked at the door and said without turning his head, “Second Brother, goodbye.”
The SWAT officers and soldiers who chased after them could not catch up at all. They only saw the motorcycle and the rider disappear from their sight in a moment.
Yan Yuanfei was so angry that his face turned ashen. What a good-for-nothing. He had escaped just like that. He had yet to say that he wanted to punish him, but he ran away faster than a rabbit.
Wen Ruoshui and Dongfang Chu left in Yan Yuanfei’s car. It was already past 11 o’clock. The road was very quiet, and they reached home in less than an hour.
Wen Ruoshui had been busy with work at the hospital recently and could not leave. After the renovation of the Wen Family’s old residence was completed, she did not have time to move and was still living in the rented district for the time being.
The duo went upstairs together and saw a person standing at the door. He was leaning against the door, looking handsome and valiant as he smoked.
When that person saw them return, she hurriedly extinguished the cigarette in his hand.
“Yu’er.” Wen Ruoshui walked over and frowned. “Why are you smoking again?”
Nangong Lengyu threw the remaining half of the cigarette into the trash can. She retracted her hand and hugged her shoulder. She smiled and said, “I haven’t seen the cigarettes here before, right? I saw them at the small shop when I was buying chewing gum. I wanted to try them.”
Wen Ruoshui rolled her eyes at her. “Smoking is not a good thing. Why would you want to try something new?”
Dongfang Chu also lectured him. “Your throat doesn’t feel uncomfortable anymore, right?”
“Don’t be angry. I’m not smoking anymore. I only tried one.” After saying that, Nangong Lengyu urged them. “I’ve been waiting for half a day. Hurry up and open the door. I’m exhausted. I must sleep for two days and two nights first.”
The lights in the corridor outside were very dim.
When they reached home and turned on the lights, Dongfang Chu and Wen Ruoshui finally saw Nangong Lengyu’s outfit clearly. She was wearing jeans, a black jacket, and had short, refreshing hair. She looked like a handsome young man.
Her female outfit was extremely beautiful to begin with. When she was dressed as a man, she gave off an indescribable sense of beauty. Her facial features were well-defined and exquisite, and she did not have any makeup on. The visual impact was extremely strong.
“Why are you dressed like this?” Wen Ruoshui thought of the pretty boy Huo Ci had mentioned. Yu’er’s male disguise was not something a pretty boy could compare to.
“Handsome?” Nangong Lengyu made an extremely handsome pose and threw a wink at them. She was so handsome that one could sit on the ground and scream.
“Handsome.” Wen Ruoshui was not asking this. She was asking why she was dressed as a man. “Are you planning to meet your fiancé in this outfit?”
Yu’er had a fiancé in China, but she had always kept it a secret. They did not know who was so lucky.
“Who said I did it for him?” Nangong Lengyu collapsed on the sofa. “I’m thinking of ways to make him take the initiative to break off the engagement.”
There was nothing she could do. Her father was determined not to let her break off the engagement. There was no room for discussion. What era was this? There was still such an old fogey. No matter what she said, it was useless. Her father was determined.
