Chapter 20 You're Back



"Miss Meng, is there anything you'd like to say?"

"Miss Meng Qianwei, what are your thoughts on playing the female lead in 'The First Abandoned Concubine'?"

"..."

Su Miao stared at Meng Qianwei on TV, her breath caught in her throat, and her small hands on the sofa clenched into fists. A stolen script, what a waste of a good actress.

The script was flawless, and the actors were excellent, but unfortunately, the screenwriter was a thief who infringed on others' copyrights.

Su Miao knew Meng Qianwei, an international female star who was famous all over the world, yet she was willing to act in a small TV series adapted from a web novel.

It has to be said, the Huo Group is truly capable.

Not in the mood to pay attention to any of that, Su Miao picked up the remote and changed the channel, finding a recently aired campus drama and watching it with great interest.

Until 10 p.m., there was no sound from the villa's door. Su Miao had finished watching the TV series, but Huo Yanting still hadn't returned.

She wasn't deliberately waiting for him; she had just finished watching a TV series and noticed that the male owner of the villa hadn't returned yet.

Aunt Liu came over and said, "Madam, it's already very late. Why don't you go and rest? Master is probably busy and will be back later."

"Is he always like this?" Su Miao asked. It seems that making so much money isn't easy, since he's always busy until so late.

"Yes, but he never listens to advice. We are just servants, so we can't really say anything. But it's alright, isn't it, Madam? If we show him more care in the future, maybe he'll listen to you?"

Su Miao smiled sullenly. How could that be? Who was Huo Yanting? A business tycoon. And who was she? A country bumpkin from the countryside. How could she possibly control him?

joke!

Besides, this marriage was only because Huo Yanting felt responsible; the two had no feelings for each other, and they might get divorced at any time.

divorce?

Su Miao was suddenly startled. What if...?

No, we can't get a divorce right now!

"Why don't you go to sleep first, Aunt Liu? I'll sit for a while longer," Su Miao said to Aunt Liu.

She was eating at someone else's house, and she would be staying there in the future. Since the owner hadn't returned, she naturally had to wait.

Seeing that Su Miao insisted, Aunt Liu stopped talking, told her to get some rest, and went back to her room.

Su Miao sat on the sofa and fell asleep without realizing it.

In the early hours of the morning, Huo Yanting returned to the villa with his briefcase and saw the girl curled up asleep on the sofa with her head tilted to one side. Perhaps she wasn't sleeping very comfortably, as her slender eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

Huo Yanting put down his bag, stood in front of the sofa and looked Su Miao up and down for a long time. Finally, he sighed, bent down and picked the woman up in his arms, carrying her into the bedroom.

Just as Huo Yanting placed Su Miao on the soft bed, he loosened his tie and prepared to go into the bathroom to take a shower. Unexpectedly, Su Miao woke up at that moment, looking at the man in front of her groggily, and asked in a soft voice, "You're back?"

For some reason, Huo Yanting felt a warm current flow through his heart when he heard these words. His long, beautiful hand, which was resting on his collar, suddenly stopped, and his dark eyes stared at Su Miao on the bed.

The girl's eyes were like the stars in the sky, sparkling brightly. Her eyelids blinked as if they could speak. Huo Yanting's heart stirred involuntarily, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he leaned down, pressing himself against Su Miao.

Su Miao stared wide-eyed in astonishment, "You... um..."

Her fingers unconsciously clenched the man's suit jacket, gripping it so tightly that the jacket was deformed.
