Chapter 213: Asura
Yun Qing watched the movie quietly. The sweetness and melancholy in the plot had already caused the other couples around them to snuggle together. However, Yun Qing remained expressionless as she stared at the screen, occasionally showing a hint of disgust.
Huo Chuan had brought Yun Qing to watch a love movie on his own accord, trying to make the love in the movie evoke a hint of love in Yun Qing’s heart.
However, it was obvious that he was underestimating her.
As she watched on, Yun Qing only mocked him more in her heart.
She also mocked the love that she had once given to him.
Even the way the male lead and female lead loved each other on the screen seemed to mock their broken love.
Huo Chuan’s initial anticipation and joy had completely disappeared. He looked up at the beautiful scenery in the movie and frowned. He even regretted bringing Yun Qing over.
Yun Qing did not touch the coke and popcorn that Huo Chuan had bought until the end.
She found the movie extremely dreary.
After the movie ended, the other couples came out, looking all the happier. Yun Qing trailed behind Huo Chuan with a cold face and walked out of the movie theater.
A cool breeze blew in the night.
Huo Chuan looked at Yun Qing’s cold face and felt an unknown fire lighting up in his heart.
When they were on the deserted island, he thought that his relationship with Yun Qing would improve. If Yun Qing was willing to be friends with him, it was a great step. But now, it seemed that Yun Qing did not have such thoughts. She was still the same as before, like a stranger to him.
Huo Chuan suddenly acted on impulse. He took Yun Qing’s hand and pulled her to a dark corner.
“What are you doing?!” Yun Qing was shocked by Huo Chuan and snapped at him.
Huo Chuan took a step towards Yun Qing. The two of them were very close to each other. At that moment, Yun Qing’s breathing stopped, and her heart was in her throat.
Huo Chuan looked down at her from above. A trace of melancholy flashed in his eyes, but the next second, it was as cold as ice. “Yun Qing, can’t we even be friends?”
“Have you ever seen a divorced couple being friends?” Yun Qing quickly replied, “Moreover, it’s a couple that broke up on bad terms.”
Husband and wife.
Hearing these two words, Huo Chuan’s heart felt like it had been stabbed by a sharp sword.
Yes, they used to be husband and wife, but what about now?
Huo Chuan’s strength from before suddenly disappeared, and his face looked lost and desolate.
“Huo Chuan, I’m grateful that you saved me on the deserted island.”
Yun Qing had to admit that without Huo Chuan, she might have died. However, it was also because of Huo Chuan that she had her blood drawn countless times. What was the difference between this and forcing her to die?
“However, this doesn’t mean that we can go back to the past. You asked me to watch the movie with you, and I watched it with you. If you still feel that it’s not enough, I’m willing to give you money and work with you.”
Yun Qing took a deep breath and looked at Huo Chuan. She said in a serious and polite manner, trying her best to draw a line between herself and Huo Chuan.
Although Yun Qing did not resist or dislike him, her expression and her professional courtesy were enough to make Huo Chuan feel as if cold water had been poured upon the top of his head.
“But, this is not enough for me.” Huo Chuan clenched his fists and said in a low voice.
Yun Qing was even more confused about Huo Chuan. Was it still a time for him to act affectionate and show his love now?
Huo Chuan was about to say something when a voice came from not far away, “Yun Qing?”
“President Huo, what are you doing? Please have some self-respect!”
The person was none other than the Sun Chen, who Huo Chuan loathed.
It had to be said that Huo Chuan’s biggest love rival was Sun Chen. Upon seeing him, Huo Chuan became defensive and his eyes darkened.
“President Sun, this matter is between Yun Qing and me.” Huo Chuan stood between Sun Chen and Yun Qing, glaring at him.
Sun Chen’s gentle demeanor vanished, and he looked as cold as Huo Chuan. “But can’t you see that Yun Qing doesn’t like it?”
Before Huo Chuan could retort, Yun Qing said from behind him, “I’m tired. I want to go home and rest.”
It was obvious that she did not want to talk to Huo Chuan anymore.
Since that was the case, Huo Chuan could only take care of Yun Qing first. He turned around and said to Yun Qing, “I’ll send you home.”
“Yun Qing, I’ll send you home.” Sun Chen interrupted midway, making Huo Chuan even angrier.
As these two men started posturing, Yun Qing felt a headache approaching.
