Chapter 24



For a moment, Yu Qinghuan's mind was completely blank.

The voices of people outside and the sound of car engines all disappeared in his ears. Only Huo Qu's words, "I will feel sad too when I think of you being sad," kept repeating in my mind.

He always thought that Huo Qu was lacking in emotions and that he could not understand the emotions of ordinary people.

But at this moment, he finally understood that Huo Qu actually knew everything in his heart, he just never had the chance to express it.

It has been more than ten years since anyone cared about him so much. In his previous life, his agent had a mutually beneficial relationship with him and only cared about his commercial value. Most of the friends who came up to him just wanted to get what they wanted from him.

As for his emotions and his feelings, no one cares at all.

Huo Qu's words were like a torrent of warm current that instantly broke the ice in his heart. My heart seemed to be immersed in warm water, so comfortable.

Yu Qinghuan's eyes were red, and she patted Huo Qu's back gently, "Okay, I'm not sad. Let's go back first, okay? Your brother is still waiting for you."

The best thing he had ever done in his life was to pick up the lost Huo Qu on the roadside.

Huo Qu sniffed and raised his head from the side of Yu Qinghuan's neck. His long and thick eyelashes were wet with tears, and he looked inexplicably pitiful.

"Aren't you ashamed?" Yu Qinghuan chuckled and deliberately stretched out two fingers to grab his eyelashes. Unexpectedly, Huo Qu didn't even blink and was caught by him.

People have instinctive reactions, especially when it comes to parts like the eyes. When feeling threatened by external forces, one would instinctively dodge, but Huo Qu did not do that. That can only be achieved because of complete trust and being unguarded.

The fingertips were wet with Huo Qu's tears. When blown by the wind, the wet places are particularly cool and unforgettable.

Yu Qinghuan took a deep breath, suppressed the sore feeling, and sent a message to Huo Rong, telling him that Huo Qu had been found.

"Let's go, your brother is worried."

Huo Qu nodded obediently and followed him obediently.

Yu Qinghuan walked away while lecturing him, "What are your plans next?" Afraid that he didn't understand, she added, "Is it really okay not to attend the academic exchange meeting? Do you need to say hello to your boss or something?"

Huo Qu quickly shook his head, "It doesn't matter."

Yu Qinghuan continued to ask: "Didn't you say it was very important?"

"But it's not as important as you." Huo Qu blurted out.

Yu Qinghuan likes men in the first place, and Huo Qu is handsome. At this moment, he said such words seriously, which made people unable to help but be moved!

He repeated to himself three times, "A rabbit doesn't eat grass near its burrow," and only then did he manage to suppress the throbbing in his heart.

As soon as the two of them walked to Gate No. 4, Huo Rong ran over with a look of surprise on his face. When he saw Huo Qu, he breathed a sigh of relief, "San'er, let's make a deal. Don't scare me like this next time, okay? Big brother almost skinned me alive!"

"I'm sorry." Huo Qu apologized sincerely, "I was wrong."

This confused Huo Rong.

This was the first time he had seen his younger brother apologize in more than 20 years.

Huo Qu is very simple, but it is precisely because of this simplicity that he insists on his own ideas. He never thinks he is wrong, and even if his family members take turns to persuade him, he will not change his mind.

Faced with their earnest advice, he would just remain silent and refuse to communicate.

For Huo Qu, today's apology can be said to be a leap forward.

"No, it's okay." Silly brother Huo Rong was so happy that he was about to float with joy. He originally planned to go to his parents and complain about it. But now, let alone the fact that Huo Qu just skipped an academic exchange meeting, even if he said he wanted to resign from the institute, he would support him with both hands!

Huo Rong ran to Huo Qu happily, and smiled foolishly, "Come, go home with me."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Huo Qu took a step back and stood behind Yu Qinghuan, staring at him vigilantly, "No."

"Are you still going back to the United States?" Huo Rong didn't understand what he meant. He scratched his hair and said in distress, "Don't, San'er. There are several such meetings every year anyway. If you don't want to attend, then don't attend. I'll talk to the research institute for you. You can't stand it all the time."

After saying that, he was about to reach out to pull Huo Qu, but Huo Qu dodged him again.

Huo Rong's face was full of questions: "San'er?"

Huo Qu said with a determined look, "I want to go back with Qing Huan."

Yu Qinghuan didn't expect him to suddenly say something like that. She was startled. When she came to her senses, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Go home first. I'll come to see you when I'm free. I'm living on the set now. You can't go."

Huo Qu shook his head, still saying the same word, "No."

He wants to be with Qinghuan.

"Be obedient," Yu Qinghuan patted his shoulder, "Go home with your brother. I'll be back soon and call you when I get there."

"Qinghuan--" Huo Qu grabbed the corner of his clothes and looked at him with blinking eyes, looking pitiful.

Before Yu Qinghuan could even open his mouth, Huo Rong surrendered first.

"It's okay, you take him away, I'll talk to Liu Jiaan." Huo Rong couldn't bear to be hard-hearted towards such a younger brother, and was also afraid that he would do something shocking again, so he simply packed him up and threw him to Yu Qinghuan, "Don't worry, he will agree."

"Okay." Since Huo Rong said so, Yu Qinghuan had no way to refuse and could only nod in agreement.

Then Huo Rong saw that his brother's little face immediately lit up, as bright as the sun.

For some reason, Huo Rong suddenly felt a strange sadness about marrying off his sister...

When leaving the airport, Yu Qinghuan always felt that someone was watching them.

In his previous life, he was always secretly photographed by paparazzi, which made him very sensitive to other people's gazes. But that's not right. He is just a newcomer in the circle. Which paparazzi has nothing better to do than to take pictures of him?

I looked around carefully but didn't see anyone suspicious, but the feeling of being watched was still there.

Yu Qinghuan couldn't help it and nudged Huo Qu with his elbow, "Do you feel like someone is watching us?"

As long as Huo Qu was with Yu Qinghuan, other people and things in the outside world did not exist to him. Hearing this, he shook his head in confusion.

Yu Qinghuan held his forehead with his hand, wondering what had possessed him to ask him. Just as she was about to pull him away quickly, a timid voice suddenly sounded behind her, "Excuse me...are you Qing Huan and Huo Qu?"

Yu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and nodded, "Yes," and glanced at the girls in front of him, "Who are you...?"

"Ah!! So lucky!" The girl in the lead was so excited that she swept her meaningful gaze over Yu Qinghuan and Huo Qu, making Yu Qinghuan feel creepy.

"We are your fans." Just when Yu Qinghuan couldn't help but step back, the girl finally spoke again, "We have been waiting for you at the airport since this morning."

"Thank you for your hard work. Don't do this next time." Yu Qinghuan was always kind to her fans. He looked at the girl's thin body and gave her some advice.

"Qinghuan is so thoughtful," the girl looked at Yu Qinghuan with stars in her eyes, "You and Huo Qu should do your best, we will all support you!"

What does this mean? It’s okay to let him refuel, but what kind of fuel should Huo Qu be asked to refuel? Before Yu Qinghuan could figure out what was going on, Huo Qu, who was originally standing behind him, suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of him, with unhappiness written all over his face.

Yu Qinghuan: “?” What happened suddenly?

"Ah!!!" The girls' faces flushed with excitement and they screamed continuously. Under Yu Qinghuan's puzzled gaze, they directly stuffed a small notebook into Huo Qu's arms and said, "This is for you! I wish you happiness!"

After saying that, he turned and ran.

Yu Qinghuan: “…”

Well, he finally understood the identities of these people. They were actually fans of him and Huo Qu.

Having witnessed the fighting power of CP fans in his previous life, Yu Qinghuan was afraid that they would write something explosive in the notebook, so he quickly snatched the notebook and flipped through a few pages. Fortunately, the girl who came this time was quite fresh and simple, and there were only illustrations of him and Huo Qu in it, nothing weird.

After returning the notebook to Huo Qu, Yu Qinghuan asked, "What happened to you just now?"

"I don't want them to see you." Huo Qu answered very honestly.

He didn't know what happened to him. Last time it was Zhao Qingyuan, and this time it was those women. As long as they got a little close to Qinghuan, he felt uncomfortable.

Of course he understood that parrot spirit was an insult, but the ramen that day was clearly made for him by Qinghuan, so how could Zhao Qingyuan steal his things! So he interrupted his second brother and deliberately said that Zhao Qingyuan was a parrot spirit.

He knew it was not good, but he couldn't control himself.

“You wouldn’t do that.” Yu Qinghuan didn’t take his words seriously, thinking that he was just being possessive among friends, and laughed, “Why are you so stingy?”

Huo Qu's eyelashes trembled, and he lowered his head without saying a word.

After Yu Qinghuan brought Huo Qu back to the crew, Liu Jiaan really didn't say anything. It seemed that Huo Rong had informed him in advance.

However, the accommodation issue was more difficult to deal with. The hotel booked by the crew was already full, and Yu Qinghuan was worried about letting Huo Qu stay in another hotel by himself. There was no choice but to let him sleep in his own room.

"I'm going to take a shower first. Your change of clothes is here," Yu Qinghuan pointed to the cabinet next to her, "Find it later. It'll be your turn after I'm done."

Huo Qu nodded obediently, found his clothes and put them away neatly, glanced at the hand-painted book on the bedside, and somehow turned a page.

When I saw it, I was stunned.

All the paintings above were of him and Qinghuan! Eat together, read books, and even watch movies together!

The little person has his and Qinghuan’s names on his head, it’s so adorable! Huo Qu liked it more and more as he read, and before he knew it he had turned to the last page, and his face instantly turned red.

It was an illustration of him and Qinghuan kissing, so lifelike that even his blushing face was drawn!

This...this...how is this possible!

Huo Qu threw the notebook away in panic and almost fell off the bed.

How could he, he and Qinghuan kiss? They are not husband and wife!

But somehow, the painting was engraved in his mind at first sight and could not be driven away.

When Yu Qinghuan came out of the shower, she found Huo Qu's face flushed red. He looked like a burning shrimp. She was shocked and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

"I, I'm going to take a shower!" The moment Huo Qu saw Yu Qinghuan, he was so angry that he felt like smoking. For some reason, for the first time, he didn't dare to look directly into Yu Qinghuan's eyes. He said this quickly and ran into the bathroom as if escaping.

What's wrong with this person? Are you having a seizure?

Yu Qinghuan withdrew her gaze from him in confusion and quickly made the bed. Huo Rong just sent him a message, saying that Huo Qu must go to bed at nine o'clock in the evening, not even a minute or a second later.

However, maybe it was because of the new environment, but Huo Qu was very strange tonight. The person who should have gone to bed at nine o'clock was tossing and turning in bed like a top, and just couldn't fall asleep, which made Yu Qinghuan feel irritated. I couldn't help but kick him and scolded him, "Stop making trouble and go to sleep!"

Huo Qu was horrified by his warning and curled up into a ball miserably. Even though he felt very uncomfortable, he didn't dare to move.

Yu Qinghuan finally found peace, but Huo Qu became even more tormented. His whole body felt like it was on fire, burning him almost to death. His throat was dry and itchy, and even if he kept swallowing, he couldn't relieve his thirst at all.

Especially the kiss illustration, which kept getting bigger and bigger in his mind. It was like a deadly poppy that attracted him and he couldn't escape it.

After a long time, so long that Huo Qu felt it was even longer than when he figured out how subatomic particles acquire mass, he finally couldn't help it, quietly got up, and called out to Yu Qinghuan, "Qinghuan?"

Yu Qinghuan seemed to be asleep and did not respond.

Huo Qu bit his lip and slowly lowered his head.

He thought, he would just kiss it, he would try it, he was just curious...

Just as his lips were about to fall, Yu Qinghuan suddenly opened his eyes in the darkness, "What are you doing?"
