Their eyes met...

Seeing the dangerous look in Huo Yu's eyes, Su Jin instinctively felt a tremor in her heart, and an ominous premonition struck her.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Qin Wan quickly interrupted.

"Alright, stop fooling around, that's enough."

"Come in and sit down, don't stand outside."

“Su Jin just rushed back from abroad, she must be exhausted.”

Hearing Qin Wan's concern for Su Jin, Huo Yu pursed his thin lips, his displeasure clearly visible in his eyes.

Qin Wan's family.

Qin Wan was very casual. Even with Su Jin and Huo Yu, two unfamiliar men, present, she lazily lay down on the sofa, pulled a blanket over herself, and closed her eyes wearily.

"You guys chat, I'm going to rest for a bit."

Su Jin: "..."

Huo Yu: "..."

The two men looked at each other in silence, while Su Jin inwardly grumbled.

What could he and Huo Yu, two grown men, possibly have to talk about?

"You... how did you become Wanwan's manager?" Su Jin stared at Huo Yu with a suspicious look.

"You don't need to know," Huo Yu said curtly.

Su Jin: "..."

"Huo Yu, what's wrong with you today?"

"Why such a strong reaction?"

“I clearly remember that you weren’t like this when I went abroad a few years ago…”

Faced with Su Jin's scrutinizing and suspicious gaze, Huo Yu pursed his thin lips and stared at her with obvious displeasure.

Why did you suddenly return to China?

Upon hearing this, Su Jin's expression stiffened almost imperceptibly, but only for a moment. He quickly composed himself and shrugged casually.

"If you want to come back, you can come back. There are no need for so many reasons."

"You're lying." Huo Yu pursed his thin lips and stared at Su Jin with a serious expression.

Su Jin: "..."

Su Jin pinched the bridge of her nose, a look of helplessness on her face.

"Huo Yu, I won't force you to tell me if you don't want to. If you don't want to tell me, can you please stop pressing me?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yu pursed his thin lips and actually didn't ask any further questions.

The two grown men looked at each other, and for a moment neither of them spoke.

Qin Wan turned over, opened her eyes, and looked at the two of them with a helpless expression.

The moment she opened her eyes, both men looked at her simultaneously…

Qin Wan sighed softly, sat up, and casually tossed her hair.

"Huo Yu is starting his own business in the cultural and entertainment industry. I happen to be looking for an agent, and he needs to understand the market environment of the entertainment industry to facilitate investment."

"So we hit it off immediately and reached a cooperation agreement."

Upon hearing this, Su Jin still looked suspicious, her face showing disbelief.

"It's...that simple?"

"Otherwise what?" Qin Wan raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Do you think I have any reason to lie to you?"

Su Jin thought about it seriously for a second and then shook her head decisively.

"There's no need."

"Tell me about yourself," Qin Wan said.

"ah……"

"Me..."

Su Jin tried to change the subject, but Qin Wan and Huo Yu's deep gazes were fixed on him, making him feel uneasy.

"Are you two really that serious..." Su Jin muttered in dissatisfaction.

"Alright, alright, stop looking at me like that. I'll talk, okay?"

"I'm heartbroken and came back to China to heal my emotional wounds."

Upon hearing Su Jin's words, Qin Wan merely raised an eyebrow in slight surprise, without any other emotional fluctuations.

Huo Yu, however, had a complex look in his eyes after hearing Su Jin's answer.

It seemed as if they were relieved that Su Jin's return to China wasn't for Qin Wan.

She was also worried that Su Jin's heartbreak might give Qin Wan the illusion that she had an opportunity to take advantage of her.

What if Qin Wan still harbors feelings for Su Jin?

Now that Su Jin is heartbroken and needs to heal her emotional wounds, does Qin Wan think this is a perfect opportunity for her to help Su Jin find love again?

Thinking of this, Huo Yu's gaze drifted towards Qin Wan...

Qin Wan felt uncomfortable under his gaze and asked with a puzzled look, "Why are you staring at me like that for no reason?"

Huo Yu pursed his thin lips and remained silent.

[Huo Yu's favorability decreased by 2, current favorability is 28.]

[Huo Yu's favorability increased by 2, current favorability is 30.]

...

Within that short minute, Huo Yu's favorability rating fluctuated wildly, making for a truly fascinating story.

Seeing Huo Yu remain silent, Su Jin subconsciously moved closer to Qin Wan. He leaned closer to her and whispered something in her ear...

"Right? You also think Huo Yu is acting strangely today, right?"

"I don't know which blind fool dared to provoke him. Aren't they tired of living?"

"This is Huo Yu!"

"I've known him for so many years, and I've never seen anyone get the better of him!"

"The person who could make him so angry must be really something."

Watching Su Jin chatter on and on without any awareness, and seeing his innocent and harmless appearance, Qin Wan couldn't help but smile.

He really is... adorably silly.

Huo Yu's mood was already on a rollercoaster. He saw Qin Wan smiling at Su Jin, a genuine smile that came from the heart and even carried a hint of doting affection.

Upon seeing this, Huo Yu immediately stood up.

Su Jin was startled by Huo Yu's strong reaction.

"Huo Yu, what's wrong with you again?" Su Jin patted her chest, looking at Huo Yu with lingering fear.

Huo Yu ignored him, not even glancing at him, his burning gaze fixed on Qin Wan, his eyes filled with blatant accusation.

Qin Wan sighed softly and patted Su Jin's shoulder. "Wait here for me for a moment. Huo Yu and I have some work to discuss. I'll deal with some important matters with him first."

Su Jin opened her mouth, wanting to ask what kind of job it was, and why she couldn't say it in front of him.

However, when the words were on the tip of her tongue, looking at Huo Yu's icy face that kept strangers at bay, Su Jin hesitated for a second before decisively choosing to save her life.

When faced with life and safety, curiosity is nothing but fleeting clouds, unimportant, unimportant.

Under Su Jin's hesitant gaze, Qin Wan pulled Huo Yu to the study on the first floor.

“You’re angry,” Qin Wan stated calmly.

Huo Yu pursed his thin lips slightly, neither admitting nor denying.

Qin Wan sighed softly, "Because of Su Jin?"

Upon hearing the name "Su Jin," Huo Yu, who had been trying to remain silent, immediately looked up and stared intently at her.

"You like Su Jin."

When he said this, Huo Yu's expression was very serious and unpleasant. His gaze was fixed on Qin Wan's face and eyes, as if he was afraid of missing the slightest change or fluctuation in her emotions.

Back when they first met, Huo Yu had been honest with her about investigating her.

Therefore, Qin Wan knew very well that she couldn't hide the fact that she had a crush on Su Jin when she was a young girl.

If Su Jin hadn't been naturally clueless and absent-minded when it came to romance, the original owner wouldn't have been able to silently harbor a crush on him and stay by his side all this time.

Anyone with a normal heart would have been able to clearly perceive the original owner's feelings for Su Jin.

But unfortunately, Su Jin isn't a normal person...

"That was in the past," Qin Wan tried to explain.

The one who secretly loved Su Jin was the original owner of this body, not her.

She admitted it...

She admitted to having a crush on Su Jin...

She admitted it...

These words kept echoing in Huo Yu's mind; he didn't listen to Qin Wan's explanation at all...
