WARNING! Tsundere President

Huo Chen unleashed the adrenaline inside him as he pressed her all the way on to the pinkish wall, his arm reaching out to seize hers. He forcefully asked, “Why won’t you admit it?”

“The f*ck is wrong with you?” Karina turned her head away and refused to have eye contact with the ridiculous man yet Huo Chen grabbed her chin and turned to face him, eye-to-eye.

He surveyed her face, still gorgeous yet no longer full as before. Mixed feelings caught him as his tone turned grimer, “You are obviously her, why won’t you admit it?”

“Let me go! You maniac!” Karine squirmed frantically within his embrace. Her words, her expression, they hurt, like a knife slicing Huo Chen’s heart. Something snapped inside him. His longing for her blew up after being inhibited for so long as the misery of being rejected, the agony of not being remembered and the bewilderment of the apparent truth flipped the switch in his mind.

He lowered his head and swarmed Karina’s lips with his. He sucked her tongue, as if taking out her soul, and felt the moisture.

“…”

The kiss caused Karina to blank out.

She shuddered as her eyes went on displaying all sorts of colors. There was shock which soon mutated into utter rage and eventually an indifference calmer than snow.

SLAP!

She slapped him. She slapped him hard. The slapping sound echoed thunderously inside the room. It was as if time was frozen.

Huo Chen’s head tilted with the momentum as his adrenaline died down.

“Have you calmed down, sir?” Karina tidied up her dress, sneered, “Allow me to tell you this one last time. I am *not* Wen He. Please don’t come again or it won’t end with just a slap on your face next time!”

She walked past Huo Chen as if he never existed.

“Good bye. Nope. Farewell.”

“…” Huo Chen rubbed his lips, turned to have one last look at her. He mustered all his sanity just to make his final word.

“Did I do anything wrong?”

She exchanged her life for mine and now she survived. She had returned yet why? Why wouldn’t she come for me? Why?

“Mr. Huo” Karina stood by the door and did not turn back as she replied, “Your persistence really intrigues me. Who’s that ‘Wen He’ to you?”

Huo Chen halted a little as he repeated the same statement he made to his commanders before, “She is my wife.”

“Oh?” Karina snorted as further she asked, “Do you love her then?”

“…” Huo Chen was silent. The question occasionally showed up in his mind ever since Lu Zhaoyang asked him.

And yet…I still haven’t gotten an answer till now…

“I think I have known the answer,” said Karina. Huo Chen could not see her expression. It was hard to tell what she really understood based on her nonchalant tone.

“If you never really loved her, why bother looking for her? If you think I’m that Wen He you’ve been dreaming to see, well, let’s think in her shoes then. Hm, my husband doesn’t love me. I won’t go back to him. It would only mean more agony for the both of us.”

Karina laughed, “That woman of yours must be foolish. She knew you never really loved her yet she chose to marry you. Maybe she knew that she made the wrong decision and now she avoided you at all cost. So, why don’t you spare her, spare yourself and move on?”

“…” Huo Chen was speechless.

Is that why she refused to reunite with me? 

“Wen He…” He wanted to hold her back but he never knew the right words to do so.

“Bye.” She left.
