Chapter 215: Carpe Diem
Huo Chuan was sitting at his desk when Li Yi walked in. He looked extremely uneasy.
“What is it this time?” Every time Huo Chuan saw Li Yi’s expression, he knew that something bad had happened.
Li Yi placed the express delivery box in front of Huo Chuan and said, “President Huo, President Yun had someone send the items back.”
Li Yi had sent it himself, but he did not expect Yun Qing to send them back intact.
Huo Chuan took a deep breath, and the surrounding temperature dropped a little.
“Got it. You can leave it here.” Huo Chuan lowered his eyes and feigned indifference, but Li Yi could already sense Huo Chuan’s anger.
Right now, only Yun Qing would make Huo Chuan do this.
He had followed Huo Chuan for so many years, but he had never seen Huo Chuan in such a defeated state.
Yun Qing initially thought that this matter was over, but not long after, a friend request popped up on her WeChat.
She opened it and saw a familiar profile picture.
. COMIt was Huo Chuan.
When they got divorced, she had blocked all of Huo Chuan’s contact details. Now that she saw this familiar profile picture, Yun Qing frowned slightly.
“Why did you send the gift back?”
There was a simple line of words in the friend add dialog box.
Yun Qing closed the page and put her phone aside.
On the other side, Huo Chuan picked up his phone from time to time, waiting for Yun Qing’s reply. But after more than half an hour, there was still no movement from Yun Qing.
Huo Chuan really did not want to wait any longer, so he chose to call Yun Qing.
“President Huo? What’s the matter?” Soon, Yun Qing’s impatient voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Why did you send the gift back?” Huo Chuan asked the same question again. “I just want to be friends with you.”
“There’s no need for such an expensive gift between friends. Besides, there’s no need for us to be friends. President Huo, let’s just be partners or competitors.” Yun Qing did not know why Huo Chuan was so persistent. As the President of the Huo Corporation, did he not have any self-respect?
Huo Chuan was momentarily silent and gave Yun Qing a few words. “I don’t want to.”
“President Huo, whether you want to or not, you have to consider whether I want it or not,” Yun Qing said coldly. “I still have work to do. President Huo, please be more productive.”
With that, Yun Qing hung up the phone. There was only a lonely beeping tone on the other end.
Huo Chuan listened to the beeping sound for a long time. In the end, he had no choice but to put down his phone and look down.
Without Huo Chuan’s interruption, Yun Qing’s day passed by quickly.
After dinner, Yun Qing agreed to Gu Zhi’s invitation and drove to Under the Moon.
Under the Moon was a luxurious club. Those who could enter were either rich or noble. However, Yun Qing rarely came to such places. She did not know why Gu Zhi had suddenly called her over for seemingly no reason.
. COMWhen she pushed open the door of the private room, Yun Qing was almost scared to death by the situation in front of her.
She saw that there were no less than ten handsome men from the entertainment circle sitting on the sofa. They all surrounded Gu Zhi with smiling faces and were serving her tea.
“Gu Zhi, what are you doing?”Yun Qing widened her eyes—Gu Zhi always had some wild ideas.
“Didn’t you just escape from the hands of death? We must properly celebrate this so that you can enjoy yourself in time! I specially found these handsome men for you. Why don’t you see if you like any of them? Pick any of them!”
Gu Zhi waved her hand, and the young men surrounded Yun Qing and called her “President Yun” and “Sister” sweetly.
Yun Qing suddenly felt like her head was about to explode.
Because of Huo Chuan, she had almost developed a fear of men, but Gu Zhi actually found so many men for her.
“Stop, stop. I don’t play like that.” Yun Qing hurriedly stopped them and walked to Gu Zhi’s side to sit down. “You’re too scary. You found me more than ten men in one go.”
Gu Zhi hugged Yun Qing in his arms. “There are so many good men in this world. I want you to walk out of the past and embrace a beautiful tomorrow.”
“I’ve long walked out of the past.” Yun Qing pinched Gu Zhi’s face.
Gu Zhi chuckled and handed the microphone to Yun Qing. “It’s okay if you don’t like men. Come, sing!”
