"No need to reschedule, let’s just set it for tomorrow. I’ll bring Ke’er along, she’s been talking about you for a long time." Li Zhiting accepted her thanks. Being with her was so easy, he didn’t have to put on any pretense.
"Sure, I’ve missed Ke’er too." Tian Xingyun replied with a smile. She hadn’t seen Ke’er for quite a while and really missed her.
"Hurry up and go inside."
"Drive safely, good night."
"Mm." Li Zhiting nodded, started the car and left. As he glanced in the rearview mirror, the corner of his mouth tugged slightly.
Tian Xingyun had just taken a few steps when a car screeched to a halt right where Li Zhiting’s car had been parked.
She heard the sound and thought it was Li Zhiting, so she turned around and began to speak, "You..."
But when she saw the car and the person getting out, she quickly stopped her words.
Isn’t he supposed to be at the branch office? Why is he here?
"Bam~" Huo Shaohua slammed the car door shut heavily and strode over to her, questioning, "Why did you stop talking?"
Seeing him made her unwilling to speak, did she really hate him that much?
"Say what?" Tian Xingyun looked at him with a cold face. Seeing him made her unhappy; what else could she say?
"Explain what you were doing with Li Zhiting, and why you came back so late!" Huo Shaohua squinted dangerously, gritting his teeth as he spoke.
He had been worried sick about her, only to find out she was out with Li Zhiting.
How ridiculous, he even drove back through the night despite being exhausted to find her.
Yet she was happily chatting with Li Zhiting, and now she was acting so cold towards him.
He was really just seeking misery for himself!
"I don’t need to explain anything to you." Tian Xingyun frowned, seeing his exhausted look made her heart ache.
But when she remembered how close he was with Song Yi at the construction site, she immediately squashed any sympathy she had for him.
Her concern was a joke to him, he didn’t need her concern at all.
"Tian Xingyun!" Huo Shaohua clenched his fist, the veins on his hand visible.
"Do you have anything else? If not, I’m going upstairs to rest." Tian Xingyun averted her gaze, not wanting to look at him for another second.
The more she looked, the sadder and angrier she became, the anger in her heart was almost uncontrollable.
"You!" Huo Shaohua forcibly swallowed his anger, his eyes landing on the bag in her hand.
He snatched it from her and saw it was filled with her changed clothes. Follow current novels on NoveI★Fire.net
Unable to hold back any longer, he pulled out the clothes and shouted at her, "Tian Xingyun, explain this to me clearly, what the hell is going on today?!"
His mind started to wander. Why had she changed her clothes, and why was she with Li Zhiting?
He didn’t dare to think further, his heart ached more and more intensely...
"What I do has nothing to do with you." Tian Xingyun knew he had misunderstood, but she didn’t want to explain. She reached out to grab the clothes back from him.
Huo Shaohua grabbed her slender wrist and pulled her into his arms.
With his other hand, he pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him. His voice was low and controlled as he spoke, "Explain this clearly, what’s with these clothes!"
He didn’t want to lose his temper without knowing the truth, fearing he might hurt her.
He was giving her a chance, trying hard to stay calm and rational, not wanting to hurt her.
"I want you to explain clearly, tell me what’s going on!" He growled angrily. Why wouldn’t she explain?
"Why should I explain to you? You’re nobody to me!" Tian Xingyun was scared by his sudden anger, her face turning pale and her eyelashes trembling, but she still refused to explain.
