Chapter 90 Walking Instead of Driving
Huo Yunting put away his phone and looked up at Chi Xuan, who was looking aggrieved.
If it were in the past, he would go up to coax her, but now he just felt a little annoyed.
"Xuanxuan, I'm having dinner with you today to thank you for your efforts in preparing grandma's birthday party. It's not about whether you're willing or not."
Chi Xuan smiled bitterly, "Even if you divorced my sister, I still have no chance, right?"
She lowered her eyes, and the hands at her sides tightened unconsciously. She could lose to anyone, but why did it have to be Chi Muzhen? She was unwilling to accept this!
Huo Yunting was silent for a few seconds, then said, "Xuanxuan, I only treat you as my sister now."
Chi Xuan's eyes were filled with tears. "Brother Yun Ting, I will never treat you as my brother. I have been with you, and my heart has been moved by you. It is impossible for me to retreat to the position of a younger sister. If I hadn't been angry all this time, if I had come back earlier, would you not have fallen in love with your older sister?"
"Xuanxuan, there are no ifs in this world."
"But my sister doesn't love you, and you two are divorced."
Huo Yunting's expression turned colder as he spoke slowly, "There's just a misunderstanding between us. Once it's resolved, we'll be together again."
Chi Xuan shook her head. "You don't understand her. Once she makes a decision, she won't regret it."
She had put so much effort into getting them divorced, she would never let them get back together!
"This has nothing to do with you."
Huo Yunting had a cold expression, and there was chill in his eyes as he looked at Chi Muzhen.
He had never looked at her like this before. Chi Xuan only felt the pain in her heart that almost drowned her.
She stood up, took a deep breath and said, "Brother Yunting, I'm tired. Please take me back."
Huo Yunting didn't say anything, stood up and walked out of the restaurant.
On the way back, Chi Xuan kept crying, but Huo Yunting did not coax her like he did before.
When the car stopped in front of the Chi family's door, Chi Xuan turned around and looked at him with red eyes, "Brother Yun Ting, I will wait for you, I won't give up!"
After saying that, Chi Xuan got out of the car and left, as if she was afraid that Huo Yunting would say something that would make her even more sad.
Huo Yunting drove to the villa and saw that it was pitch black inside. He called Ke Ning and found out that Chi Muzhen had moved to a villa in the north of the city.
He turned the steering wheel and went directly to the villa in the north of the city. Not long after he stopped at the door, he saw Shi Yiheng knocking on the door with a plate of fruit in his hand. Soon Chi Muzhen opened the door and let him in.
Huo Yunting's hands gripping the steering wheel tightened unconsciously, his face full of anger.
It had only been a short time since her 'divorce', and she was already openly associating with Shi Yiheng!
That’s really great!
He dialed Ke Ning's number and said coldly, "Find something for Shi Yiheng to do right now! It would be best if he leaves Rongcheng right away!"
In the living room of the villa, Chi Muzhen, Zhen Yan and Shi Yiheng were playing Landlord.
Zhen Yan and Shi Yiheng only found out that the other knew Chi Muzhen half an hour ago. In addition, the two had just collaborated on a movie, so Zhen Yan called Shi Yiheng to come over and play.
Suddenly, Shi Yiheng's phone rang.
Not long after the call was connected, his expression changed immediately.
"I suddenly have something urgent to do. Let's make an appointment next time."
Seeing Shi Yiheng's anxious expression, Chi Muzhen nodded and said, "Okay, you go and get busy first."
After Shi Yiheng left, the two did not continue playing cards. They cleared the table and sat on the sofa to watch TV.
"Zhenzhen, does Shi Yiheng have a crush on you?"
Chi Muzhen was eating watermelon and choked when he heard this.
After finally swallowing the watermelon, she turned around and looked at Zhen Yan in surprise, "Have you been watching too many romance dramas lately?"
"No, do you know how aloof Shi Yiheng is on a normal day? On the set, he barely says a word except when filming. If someone tries to chat with him, he'll exchange a few words, but he always keeps his distance.
Even though I filmed a movie with him, I rarely saw him smile."
Just now, when the three of them were playing Landlord together, the smile on Shi Yiheng's face was completely genuine, completely different from his usual cold self.
Chi Muzhen frowned, "That's because you're not familiar with him. He's a slow-tempered person, but once he treats you as a true friend, he'll be very gentle."
Zhen Yan shook her head, "Anyway, I think he treats you differently."
Chi Muzhen originally wanted to explain that it was because she had helped him when he was at his lowest point, and had also been his behind-the-scenes agent for a period of time, but then she thought, maybe he didn't want others to know about his past experiences.
"Okay, stop imagining it, what you said is impossible!"
Zhen Yan wanted to say something else when the doorbell suddenly rang.
Chi Muzhen got up to open the door, and when she saw Huo Yunting outside, she couldn't help but frown.
"Mr. Huo, what are you doing here?"
Huo Yunting looked indifferent, "Why do you want to sell the villa I gave you?"
Chi Muzhen didn't expect him to know so quickly, and said, "I thought you gave it to me, so it's mine. I can decide whether to sell it or keep it."
"Are you and Shi Yiheng together?"
Meeting Huo Yunting's questioning gaze, Chi Muzhen felt a little puzzled.
"Mr. Huo, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with you."
A cold look flashed across Huo Yunting's eyes. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Zhen Yan's voice coming from the living room.
"Zhenzhen, is Emperor Shi back?"
Chi Muzhen was afraid that she would misunderstand Huo Yunting, so she quickly said, "No, I'm a door-to-door salesperson."
As he spoke, Chi Muzhen pushed Huo Yunting out, closed the door, looked at him and said, "Mr. Huo, if there is nothing else, please leave now. I don't want my friends to see it and misunderstand me."
Huo Yunting sneered, "Are you afraid that your friends will misunderstand you, or are you afraid that Shi Yiheng will misunderstand you?"
Chi Muzhen was annoyed by what he said and said unhappily, "Not everyone is like you, who can seamlessly transition to the next relationship after a divorce!"
Huo Yunting frowned and was about to ask her when he had made the seamless transition when he suddenly remembered the time when he and Chi Xuan went out to dinner and ran into her and Zhen Yan.
He raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you jealous?"
It seems that she is not as indifferent as she appears to be when there are other women around him.
Chi Muzhen rolled her eyes, "Mr. Huo, being too narcissistic is a disease!"
"How's work going for you lately?"
His nonsensical words left Chi Muzhen speechless.
"What exactly is your purpose for coming here today?!"
"I don't have any purpose, I just came to see if you are doing well."
"Thank you. I'm doing well. I think it would be better if you weren't in front of me."
As the two were talking, footsteps approached.
"Zhenzhen, where are you?"
Chi Muzhen's expression changed. She grabbed Huo Yunting's hand and dragged him into the shadows to the side. She stood at the door and answered Zhen Yan.
"Yanyan, I've already sent them away. I'll be in right away."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhen Yan opened the door of the villa and saw that Chi Muzhen was the only one outside. She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you don't come in, I'll think you've been kidnapped!"
"Well, I'll be in right away. You go in first. I just had a drink and want to take a walk."
“Then I’ll go with you.
Chi Muzhen saw Huo Yunting move out of the corner of her eye, as if he was about to come out of the shadows. Her heartbeat accelerated unconsciously, and she quickly pushed Zhen Yan in and locked the door.
"No, I'll be back soon, go take a shower first!"
The next second, Zhen Yan's half-smiley voice came from behind the door.
"Chi Muzhen, are you secretly hiding a man?"
