Huo Mian just stood there and watched as Qin Chu’s Maybach drove off into the distance.
No matter how Jiang Xiaowei and Zhu Lingling tried to persuade her, she still refused to go and insisted on standing outside the courthouse like an idiot.
Soon, the sun began to set, welcoming Northern China’s icy chills.
In the end, Jiang Xiaowei had no choice but to call Su Yu.
“Su Yu…”
“What’s up?”
“Can you come to the courthouse near Bibo Road?”
“Why?”
“Huo Mian came here to see Qin Chu and talk to him, but he refused to talk to her. She’s been waiting here for more than an hour. It’s too cold outside and I’m afraid that she might catch a cold. Can you come and talk to her?”
After three seconds of silence…
Su Yu replied, “You guys should go, leave the rest up to me.”
“Okay.” Jiang Xiaowei knew that Su Yu would know what to do.
Qin Chu drove his Maybach all the way back to the company.
When Yang walked in with documents, he glanced at the president’s grim expression and asked quietly, “Sir, should we go back? The young madam’s still standing there…”
“Shut up.”
“I’m sorry.” Yang immediately shut up; he knew that Qin Chu was in a foul mood.
After sitting alone for a while, he finally went downstairs. This time, he drove one of his employee’s cars, a black Ford.
He parked about ten meters away from her…
Huo Mian was wearing a red down jacket. She stood outside the courthouse like a rock.
Just as he was about to get off the car and talk her into leaving, he saw a flashy black Lamborghini park in front of Huo Mian.
Therefore, Qin Chu closed the car door and sat back into the car.
It was a snowy March, and Huo Mian’s hair and eyelashes were all covered in snowflakes.
She was the last speck of red in this white city…
Su Yu held up a black umbrella and stood quietly behind Huo Mian, who looked up in pleasant surprise.
She turned around, elated, “I knew you would come back…”
However, her expression filled with disappointment upon seeing who it was.
“The snow’s falling hard, you’re going to turn into a snowman soon.” Su Yu smiled.
“Why are you here?”
“I was passing by and saw a stupid head standing here, I really thought that you were some road sign.”
Huo Mian’s lips twitched, but she didn’t know what to say.
“Su Yu…”
“Mhm?”
“Did you know that I got divorced?”
“Mhm, I saw the news and your Weibo updates.”
“I need to see him and talk to him in person, so don’t try to talk me into leaving.”
“I won’t, you must have your reasons for waiting.”
“Mhm, so you should leave.”
“No, I like the view here. I’ll enjoy the view while you wait for him,” Su Yu said stubbornly while holding the umbrella.
“You’re… so stubborn.” Huo Mian tilted her head at Su Yu.
“So are you.”
Huo Mian and Su Yu waited outside the courthouse for six hours, all the way until 11 PM.
Soon, there were no more cars on the road and no more pedestrians on the street, but they still stood there, unmoving.
Su Yu had given Huo Mian his down jacket. If he didn’t receive military training, he would’ve gotten hypothermia a long time ago.
“Achoo! Achoo!” Su Yu shivered from the cold, and Huo Mian tried to convince him, “You should go home.”
“If the stupid head’s not going, then I’m not going,” Su Yu said with determination.
“You’re the stupid head…” Huo Mian rolled her eyes at him.
In the end, Huo Mian didn’t want Su Yu to get sick because of her, so she compromised and got onto Su Yu’s car.
“Where to, Dr. Huo?” Su Yu was surprised.
“Take me home, stupid head. I’m tired.”
Huo Mian threw away her stubbornness and decided to stop waiting for Qin Chu.
After the Lamborghini drove away, Qin Chu walked out from behind a tree and threw his unfinished cigarette onto the ground.
Mian finally left; now, he could go back to the company.
Oh their way back, Huo Mian felt depressed and remained silent.
“What do you want to eat?” Su Yu gently asked her.
