Then, he… lied on the floor for an entire day, even though the broken glass scratched his back.
That physical pain was nothing compared to the emotional pain of losing Huo Mian.
Huo Siqian always wondered why she chose Qin Chu; after all, he met her first…
According to the order of appearance, he was the first man to appear in Huo Mian’s life.
Back then, in an attempt to stir up trouble, Yang Meirong brought Huo Mian to the Huo mansion.
She was only ten years old, while he was already 16.
Huo Siqian thought a ten-year-old girl would be terrified, shy, excited, or even curious to come to a giant luxurious mansion.
However, the Huo Mian he saw was calm beyond words could describe…
She leaned against a pole and chewed on her gum as if she was ignoring everyone around her.
Yang Meirong was arguing with Huo Zhenghai, but she just stood there quietly, as if she was no more than a bystander.
He still remembered that she was wearing faded jeans and white tennis shoes. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail.
The way she looked down while she was lost in her thoughts was really cute; she looked like a little adult.
Therefore, Huo Siqian curiously approached her. “Hey, what are you doing at my house?”
“How’s that your business?”
Huo Mian was an arrogant girl, even at a young age. At that instant, he fell head-over-heels for her.
Back then, Huo Siqian felt his heart beat uncontrollably in his chest when he looked into Huo Mian’s eyes.
That was when he knew that for the first time in his life, he liked someone.
Later, he tried his best to get to know Huo Mian and talk to her, but she treated the Huo Family with extreme animosity.
To her, everyone was the same, whether it was Huo Yanyan, Huo Siyi, or him.
Then, she went to high school and met Qin Chu…
After all these years, Huo Siqian was still unwilling to give up.
He believed he was ambitious and wanted more out of life because he wanted to make himself stronger, so strong that one day, he could easily have Huo Mian to himself…
After all these years, his love for her was as high as the Himalayas, taking root and slowly blooming in his heart.
Huo Mian had become his most terrifying obsession…
Huo Siqian sat in his office with a grim expression on his face.
After knocking, his assistant walked in and carefully asked, “President Huo, it’s 8 PM, can the employees go home?”
“F*ck off…”
Upon hearing this, his assistant became so scared that she ran away with her tail between her legs…
Huo Siqian took out his phone, opened WeChat, and found Huo Mian under his contacts.
Then, he clicked on her friend circle and browsed through all her photos.
Her smile was so beautiful and her expression was as innocent as a child…
His big hand gently caressed his screen. “Mian… my Mian.”
“Achoo! Achoo!” Huo Mian sneezed twice in a row.
Qin Chu thought the heater wasn’t on high enough, so he immediately turned it up. “Are you getting sick?”
“I don’t think so, I’m feeling fine. Honey, what are we having for dinner?”
Having dinner with Qin Chu had become something that Huo Mian looked forward to the most every day.
“You’re such a foodie…” Qin Chu teased her, and Huo Mian replied arrogantly, “Did you just meet me today or something?”
Qin Chu was speechless; his wife was sure smart, learning his catchphrase so quickly.
“Honey… I have to treat you better in the future.”
“Why?” Qin Chu wondered why his wife would suddenly say something like this; did she finally come to her senses?
However, he was at a loss for words upon hearing what she said next.
“After all, marrying me means that you’ve got the best taste in the world, haha.”
Since when did Qin Chu become the calm one and Huo Mian the arrogant one?
After returning to South Hill Manor, Huo Mian realized that the kitchen didn’t prepare dinner for them.
Just as she was about to ask Qin Chu if he wanted to go out for dinner, he placed a poncho over her. Then, he put her hand in his, “Come on, I want to take you somewhere.”
“Why so mysterious?” Huo Mian smiled.
