To My Dear Mr. Huo

The sound of crying and the door slamming sobered the drunken Huo Jinyao up a little. His body moved and his hands unconsciously reached to his side where Su Qingsang’s hand were. Huo Jinyao took her hand and she lost her balance and fell into his arms.

“Huo Jinyao.”

Su Qingsang thought that he had woken up and tried to prop up her body to have a talk with him.

Huo Jinyao opened his eyes dreamily and closed them again after seeing who was in front of him. He gave her a kiss with his mouth that reeked of booze. When Su Qingsang could no longer bear it, he rubbed his head against her neck.

“Sweetheart—”

This was what he had gotten used to these days. Su Qingsang’s body tensed up. She stopped trying to get away from him and looked up at Huo Jinyao.

He was not sober yet, the smell of booze was all over him. She hated it the when men got drunk. She also didn’t like that Huo Jinyao had gotten so sloppy and had been brought to a hotel by a woman.

The way he said “Sweetheart” kept her heart, which had softened over the past few days, from getting angry.

Huo Jinyao stretched out his hand and encircled Su Qingsang’s waist. He rubbed his cheek against Su Qingsang’s neck.

“Sweetheart.”

Su Qingsang finally stopped moving after he whispered it again. She sighed in and spoke in a very low voice.

“Huo Jinyao, you’re really a troublemaker.”

Getting into trouble with a woman like He Xuanyao, you’re really—

Looking down, she realized there was something wrong. She suddenly looked at Huo Jinyao again.

He Xuanyao and Qiu Junjiao are friends. That means she must come from a good family. Why does she want Huo Jinyao so badly?

As a strange feeling surged up in her, Su Qingsang looked closely at Huo Jinyao.

A woman like He Xuanyao is unlikely to have a crush on an ordinary man. So who on earth is Huo Jinyao?

She remembered that his clothes were of the best quality and workmanship, though the brands were never revealed. The gifts he had bought for Su Chenghui and Li Qianxue had also not been cheap and neither had the diamond ring or the clothes he had bought for her.

And—

Adding all the signs up, the suspicion she had felt before came to her again, making Su Qingsang feel uncomfortable.

She pushed Huo Jinyao away without hesitation. He did not have much strength because of his drunkenness and, thus, was easily pushed away.

As soon as Huo Jinyao’s body was off her, she got up. She wanted to leave, but turned around and went into the bathroom after staring at Huo Jinyao’s sleeping face for a while.

…

Huo Jinyao woke up with a headache. He had not had a hangover for a long time. He raised one of his hands, rubbed the corners of his forehead, and realized that something was wrong.

The air conditioner was turned a little low, but that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that he didn’t seem to be wearing any clothes.

Naked?

He opened his eyes instantly and looked at his body, and then looked at his surroundings.

This isn’t home. I am not at Su Qingsang’s apartment? Is this a hotel?

He remembered that he had met Lee Junsheng yesterday, who was a very close friend of his. He had been in another city with a good friend, so he must have gotten drunk, right?

And then what had happened?

His last memory was that of He Xuankai and He Xuanyao seeming to approach him.

Huo Jinyao’s face suddenly turned cold. It seemed that he had been too careless around them. He hadn’t expected that He Xuankai and his sister would dare to do such things with Lee Junsheng present. They really had some nerve.
