Chapter 209: Huo Chuan Had Saved Her Twice
Yun Qing wanted nothing more than to be less involved with Huo Chuan. However, she could not seem to get rid of her entanglement with Huo Chuan.
Huo Chuan had saved her once five years ago. This time, he had saved her again on a deserted island.
Yun Qing had never expected the man she hated the most to actually be her savior. Moreover, he had saved her life twice.
Yun Qing had thought that she would not care about Huo Chuan anymore. However, when Huo Chuan took out that photo just now, it still stirred up some ripples in her heart. Even as she was having dinner with Sun Chen, she kept thinking about this matter from time to time.
All sorts of things from the past resurfaced in Yun Qing’s mind. She tried her best to restrain herself, but she still could not control her emotions and thoughts.
At the Yun residence.
Yun Qing returned home, exhausted after her dinner with Sun Chen. As soon as she reached home, Yun Zhen greeted her, “You went out for dinner with Sun Chen?”
“Yes.” Yun Qing nodded.
Yun Zhen continued, “Sun Chen is a good man. Although he doesn’t have as many assets as Huo Chuan, he is more reliable and dependable than Huo Chuan…”
When Yun Zhen said these words, it was as if he was choosing a son-in-law.
Yun Qing glanced at Yun Zhen and said, “Dad, what are you doing? I just came home from a divorce, and you want to marry me off again?”
“Of course not!” Yun Zhen immediately denied it. “Haven’t you been pestered by Huo Chuan recently? I’m afraid that you’ll have fantasies about Huo Chuan again. Having another man can at least divert your attention.”
At this moment, Yun Qing felt that Yun Zhen was teaching her how to be the king of the sea.
“Sun Chen and I are just friends, and I don’t have the mood to talk about love, especially right now.” Yun Qing pouted. “If you continue to gossip about me like that, I might not come home again!”
When he heard Yun Qing’s threat, Yun Zhen immediately smiled at his precious daughter. “I was just worried about you! I won’t mention it in the future, not once!
“Oh right, Little Qing, Jiang Ling just sent you an invitation to attend her jewelry exhibition tomorrow night.” Yun Zhen took out a beautiful invitation card and handed it to Yun Qing.
Yun Qing picked it up and saw that it was indeed sent by Jiang Ling.
“It seems that my teacher has been thinking of returning to China,” Yun Qing muttered.
Jiang Ling had always been active abroad. Yun Qing had learned design from her when she was in Europe. However, Jiang Ling had been active in China recently. It seemed that she was planning to make a comeback on her homeground.
“If you want to continue learning design, you’ll have my full support!” Yun Zhen patted Yun Qing’s shoulder.
He had only one precious daughter and had spoiled her since she was young.
“Okay!” Yun Qing hugged Yun Zhen. “Daddy, you are still the best to me.”
After chatting for a while, Yun Qing returned to her room. Yun Zhen watched her retreating back and sighed softly.
Ever since Yun Qing returned, Yun Zhen had been extremely worried about her condition.
She had improved drastically. When she had just returned, Yun Zhen would often hear Yun Qing’s screams in the middle of the night.
Several times, he was so scared that he would run to Yun Qing’s room, but he would hear the name “Huo Chuan” in her ravings.
Yun Zhen was worried that Yun Qing was still thinking about the man who had hurt her, so he wanted to ask more about her and Sun Chen.
Every time he thought about the matter between Yun Qing and Huo Chuan, Yun Zhen only had regret in his heart. He regretted letting Yun Qing marry into the Huo family back then.
The next day, the sun was setting. Yun Qing was humming a tune in the cloakroom, picking out clothes for the jewelry exhibition.
This was her first time attending a banquet in public since she came back. She had to dress up properly.
Yun Qi sat in the living room as Yun Qing’s advisor. He watched her change into one elegant and gorgeous dress after another as she happily twirled around in circles in front of him.
“Third Brother, does this look good?
“How about this one?
“Hiss—this makes me look a little fat…”
…
Yun Qi did not have many suggestions. He was happy to accompany her.
Just as Yun Qing decided to wear a limited edition new gown from a certain luxury brand, Yun Zhen walked in with a servant.
When she saw the big box in the servant’s hand, Yun Qing asked curiously, “Daddy, did you prepare a gift for me again?”
Yun Zhen nodded and smiled to let the servant open the box.
