SEVEN YEARS WITHOUT YOU, VOLUME 4 - SEASON 48 EPISODE 22

“Yes, it’s delicious,” he answered calmly.

“Eat more if it’s good. Eat everything.” Huo Mian smiled evilly.

“Okay.”

He just nodded his head as usual and said a simple ‘okay’.

“You sure you don’t want the soda?”

“No.”

“Then I’ll drink it.” Huo Mian opened the bottle cap.

“Sure.”

After receiving his confirmation, Huo Mian took a big gulp. After eating spicy food, she could drink some cold soda. It was a great pleasure.

It was said that this combination would cause diarrhea, but Huo Mian’s stomach was probably pretty good, so she didn’t feel uncomfortable eating like this.

After taking a few sips of her soda, she looked at the lake in the park with satisfaction. Suddenly, her mood calmed down.

Then, she looked at Huo Siqian, who was sitting next to her. Huo Siqian lowered his head and continued to eat the super spicy potato noodles without any reaction.

Originally, Huo Mian had thought that after taking a bite, the spicy taste would make him want to die.

However, she waited for a long time. Even after Huo Siqian finished his second bowl of potato noodles, she still didn’t see the expression she wanted.

“This guy… can eat spicy food so well?” Huo Mian thought to herself, but she didn’t say anything.

Finally, after the second bowl was finished, Huo Siqian elegantly wiped his mouth with a tissue.

“I’m full… Thanks for the dinner, Sister Mian.”

“It’s fine, but… This is considered my repayment to you. From now on… you can’t cause me any more trouble.”

Huo Mian really didn’t want to have anything to do with the Huo Family.

Even if Huo Siqian wasn’t as annoying as Huo Siyi and Huo Yanyan, he was still a member of the Huo Family.

“That won’t do… Sister Mian, you’ve worked so hard today. You treated me to good food and made the trip twice. It’s so tiring… I can’t bear to see you like this… so I’ll treat you to something better next time.”

“It’s okay, just don’t show up in front of me.” Huo Mian lowered her head and swirled her soda.

“You hate the Huo Family?”

“What do you think?” Huo Mian didn’t look up.

“Ha… but I’m not a member of the Huo Family, I’m just an adopted son. My surname isn’t Huo, so you don’t have to be wary of me…”

“Forget about it. You grew up safely in the Huo Family and even helped to manage the business in the company. That means you’re not a simple character… Stop pretending to be weak and innocent.”

After hearing what Huo Mian said, Huo Siqian laughed.

“Hahaha, Sister Mian’s intelligence is really high… I’m impressed.”

“Alright, I don’t have time to chat with you. I still have to go home. There won’t be any bus later.”

“I’ll take you.”

“No.”

“It’s fine. I need to digest my food after eating. Let’s go. I’ll take the bus with you.”

Huo Mian thought that Huo Siqian was talking about taking a taxi or a car.

Unexpectedly, he still suggested taking the bus.

It was getting late, so Huo Mian turned around to go home. She still needed to walk for a few more minutes, but Huo Siqian was still worried.

Therefore, despite Huo Mian’s reluctance, Huo Siqian still took her home.

They did not speak much on the way.

Huo Mian carried her school bag and looked at the scenery outside the bus.

Huo Siqian didn’t relax until Huo Mian got off the bus.

“I’m not getting out of the bus. I’m taking it back… Be careful.”

“I hope we never meet again.” Huo Mian jumped out of the bus as soon as she said these words. She meant it as finally being freed from him.

Huo Siqian looked at the girl, full of thoughts, and smiled gently.

Then, he sat for another stop before getting off the bus.

He took out his phone and called the driver. “I’m in Eastern Jiujiang. Come and pick me up… take me to… the hospital.”

Because at this moment, his stomach was already churning, and it felt as though it was almost burning in the next moment.

However, in front of Huo Mian on the bus, he pretended to be as calm as water.
