Chapter 157 Unexpected
Seeing Ah Si's hesitant look, Chu Siran instantly became anxious, "Why don't you just say something? What's going on?"
"I...I don't know what happened. I believe Mr. Huo is not that kind of person, but when I walked in, the two of them were hugging each other intimately."
When Ah Si said this, he deliberately paused to observe Lin Yilan's reaction. Seeing Lin Yilan's face slowly darkening, Ah Si couldn't help but feel happy.
"Because Mr. Huo knew me, when I broke into the room, the two of them stopped moving. Mr. Huo told me that he had eaten something he shouldn't have and that was why he was unconscious. He also asked me to take him to the hospital. But when I broke in and saw Mr. Huo, he didn't look like he had eaten anything..."
"So, Huo Juncheng really went to the hotel to look for Chu Xi, and if you hadn't barged in, the two of them would have been..."
Chu Siran was quick-witted, and after hearing what Ah Si had said, he took over directly. Then, remembering that Lin Yilan was still there, he felt that it was a bit inappropriate to speak so directly, so out of consideration for Lin Yilan's feelings, he stopped mid-sentence.
"Sister Yilan, I don't know if it's my illusion. Maybe Mr. Huo really ate something?" Ah Si looked at Lin Yilan's gloomy face and began to excuse Huo Juncheng again.
"It doesn't matter. I know what Huo Juncheng is like. He and Chu Xi had a scandal at the time. Even if he still has feelings for her, I have nothing to say."
Looking at the sadness emanating from Lin Yilan, Chu Siran didn't know what to say to comfort her. He could only walk over, pat Lin Yilan's shoulder, and pray that he could comfort her.
"It doesn't matter. If he likes Chu Xi, then he likes Chu Xi. At worst, I can just settle my marriage with him. Anyway, I also..." Lin Yilan said this, feeling as if something was stuck in her throat. She paused for a long time before pretending to be relieved and continued, "Anyway, I don't like him either."
“…”
Chu Siran wanted to say something at this moment. Lin Yilan's face was full of concern. She said that she didn't like Huo Juncheng. Chu Siran really didn't believe it at all. However, it was estimated that Lin Yilan didn't see her own heart clearly now.
So does Huo Juncheng like Lin Yilan? Chu Siran is not sure, but judging from the current situation, perhaps Huo Juncheng is not someone Lin Yilan can entrust her life to.
Looking at Lin Yilan's back as she walked into the theater, Chu Siran shook his head and thought, "Forget it, forget it. I don't want to think about those annoying things anymore. I came here to listen to Lin Yilan sing. Who cares what's going on between Chu Xi and Huo Juncheng?"
…
When the two men walked into the theater, Ah Si did not follow them in. Instead, he lied that he was going to the bathroom and did not go in with them. Instead, he walked to a coffee shop across the street.
In the coffee shop opposite, there was a woman in a scarlet dress sitting there. She was holding a cup of coffee and leisurely observing everything that had just happened between Ah Si and Lin Yilan.
"Why is the eldest daughter of the Chu family here?"
"Isn't this Ah Si who ruined my plan yesterday? Why did you feel guilty today and stand on my side to deceive Lin Yilan because you're afraid I'll cause trouble for you?"
"I don't quite understand what Miss Chu is saying." Facing Chu Xi's sarcasm, Ah Si had no expression on his face, just staring at Chu Xi.
Although Chu Xi had just seen everything that happened between them at the theater entrance, Ah Si didn't believe that she could hear the conversation between him, Lin Yilan and Chu Siran.
Facing Ah Si who was deliberately playing dumb, Chu Xi covered her lips and laughed, "What's there for me to play dumb about? Since you and I are on the same front, why don't you admit it?"
"Miss Chu, you're joking. I wonder which of my actions made you misunderstand that we are on the same side?"
"Ah Si, aren't you a little too naive? If I could bribe anyone in your theater, wouldn't it be easy for me to find out what I want to know? Not to mention the conversation you just had at the theater entrance, even if it's the opera you're going to perform in the theater later, as long as I want to know, it would be easy."
After hearing Chu Xi say this, a slight crack appeared on Ah Si's expressionless face. "I did deceive Sister Yilan, but so what? Huo Juncheng is simply not worthy of someone as outstanding as Sister Yilan!"
Chu Xi was facing Ah Si, who was so excited at the moment. She had not expected him to say this. She had just been wondering if Ah Si was afraid of her revenge, which was why he did what he did just now. It turned out that he was plotting something bad against Lin Yilan...
Thinking of this, Chu Xi raised a sarcastic smile. A violent woman and an actor, huh...
"I really didn't expect you to have such thoughts, but it's exactly what I want. So, you don't plan to cooperate with me?"
"Cooperate with you? Haha, no way!"
Facing Ah Si like this, Chu Xi didn't get angry and continued to smile, "Why are you so anxious to reject me? I want Huo Juncheng, and you want Lin Yilan. Isn't it perfect for us to work together?"
"I'm not as filthy as you. I know I'm not worthy of Sister Yilan. I just don't want Huo Juncheng and Lin Yilan to be together. A man like him who's a playboy is not worthy of Sister Yilan at all."
"Okay, okay, you're right. Even if you don't want to be with Lin Yilan, our goals are still the same. If I want to get Huo Juncheng, I have to break them up first. How about it, do you want to cooperate with me?"
Ah Si still had a stubborn look on his face, and even his tone was mixed with contempt for Chu Xi. Although Chu Xi wanted to win Ah Si over, her temper would not allow Ah Si to keep contradicting her.
However, Ah Si didn't consider Chu Xi's feelings at all and rejected her again: "I won't cooperate with a woman like you."
After Ah Si finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Chu Xi did not give Ah Si a chance. He gave a look to the person next to him, and the person next to him subdued Ah Si directly.
"I was giving you face by discussing this with you, but I didn't expect you to refuse my toast and instead insist on drinking a penalty drink. You're just an actor, why are you so arrogant? Tsk tsk."
Chu Xi stretched out a finger and stroked Ah Si's face, then picked up the napkin on the table with disgust and wiped the finger that had just stroked Ah Si's face.
"Do you think you still have a choice now? I came here today to teach you a lesson for your behavior last night. I didn't expect you to do anything bad to Lin Yilan. That's why I thought of letting you go, but the prerequisite is that you cooperate with me!"
"You're delusional!"
"Okay, very good." Facing this stubborn Ah Si, Chu Xi crossed his arms and sneered, "You don't want to cooperate with me, right? Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Lin Yilan about your little tricks? By then, no matter what you're thinking, Lin Yilan won't be so close to you anymore, right?"
"you!"
