Chapter 229: In the Cold War
Lin Yilan did not return to the Huo family later, but found a hotel at random and planned to stay there for one night. However, she was a little troubled because she did not bring enough money or her ID card.
In the end, it was Cass who used his ID to book a room for Lin Yilan. After helping Lin Yilan book the room, Cass said good night to Lin Yilan and left.
Lin Yilan took a hot shower and lay in bed, thinking about how gentlemanly Cass was today, she felt a little uncomfortable. However, Cass like this was really good, and Lin Yilan now wanted to be friends with Cass.
Lin Yilan was a little tired after fighting with Cass in the arena for a long time. Although she had a lot of worries, she had no time to think about them. Lin Yilan turned over twice in bed, her eyelids began to fight up and down, and she was about to fall asleep.
Then I heard a "bang" sound, the sound of the door being violently opened...
Lin Yilan was so frightened that she quickly sat up from the bed, "Who?"
"I."
Lin Yilan only heard Huo Juncheng utter a word lightly. She looked up and happened to meet the eyes of Huo Juncheng who was full of anger. Looking at Huo Juncheng like this, Lin Yilan shuddered subconsciously. She didn't provoke Huo Juncheng, why did he look so angry now?
"Why are you here all of a sudden? This is my room. Please get out."
"Why didn't you go back to the Huo family?"
Huo Juncheng began to question Lin Yilan, and the anger in his words did not dissipate. He stared at Lin Yilan. What Lin Yilan didn't know was that after she left, Huo Juncheng was not in the mood and went straight back to the Huo family.
What she didn't know was that Huo Juncheng had been waiting for Lin Yilan to come back since he returned to the Huo family. When he didn't see Lin Yilan for a long time, the contact person began to check Lin Yilan's whereabouts. He not only knew that Lin Yilan and Cass went to the boxing club, but also knew that the room Lin Yilan was living in was booked in Cass's name.
How could Huo Juncheng not be angry when he knew all this!
However, Lin Yilan didn't know that Huo Juncheng was angry about these things, and still felt that Huo Juncheng had taken the wrong medicine and was "having a seizure" here.
"I just don't want to go back to the Huo family. Is that a problem? I just want to stay here today. It's my freedom. What's wrong? And why did you suddenly barge in? Don't you know that this is scary?"
"Are you feeling guilty because I caught you?"
"What?" Lin Yilan looked at Huo Juncheng, tilted her head and frowned.
Huo Juncheng ignored Lin Yilan and walked straight to the bed. He placed his hands on either side of Lin Yilan and looked straight at her. "Don't think I don't know. This room you're staying in was booked by Cass. Didn't you say your relationship with Cass wasn't good? How come it's become so good just because of a fistfight?"
"How did you know that Cas and I were going to fight? And how did you know this was the room Cas booked for me? And why are you here?"
Lin Yilan looked at Huo Juncheng and showed a little anger.
"Why, now that I know everything, you feel guilty? What is your relationship with Cass?"
"He's just a partner in our milk tea shop. We had a fistfight. Since I didn't have my ID with me, Cass used his ID to get me a room. Is there a problem?"
Huo Juncheng's anger did not dissipate after hearing Lin Yilan's words. "Those two milk tea shops are so important to you. Is it because I, Huo Juncheng, can't afford to support you? Isn't it better for you to be a good young lady of the Huo family?"
After hearing what Huo Juncheng said, Lin Yilan suddenly understood what made Huo Juncheng angry. It seemed that as long as she mentioned anything related to the milk tea shop, Huo Juncheng would always be angry with her.
But she just wanted to do something, and she was with Chu Siran, so she didn't think it was a big deal. Moreover, since she opened the milk tea shop with Chu Siran, she really learned a lot.
Now she is not as reserved as before when attending banquets, which is a good thing. But why does Huo Juncheng have unpleasantness with her again and again because of opening a milk tea shop?
"Huo Juncheng, I really don't understand why you're so angry. I'm just doing something with Siran. It's okay if you don't support me. I know the Huo family's business is huge. Compared to the Huo family's business, the milk tea shop is nothing. But this is also the business that Siran and I worked so hard to build."
"I asked you to accompany me to the banquet, but you repeatedly refused. But for the sake of the milk tea shop, you slowly accepted these things you didn't like. How do you think I would feel when such a fact was placed before me?"
Lin Yilan looked at Huo Juncheng at the moment and was speechless for a moment. She admitted that because of Huo Juncheng's indulgence towards her in the beginning, she felt that it was natural for her not to accompany Huo Juncheng to those banquets. Little did she know how much inconvenience these things brought to Huo Juncheng.
"I promise you that I will do my best to fulfill my responsibilities in the future. But you also know that although I have accompanied Siran to several banquets, there are still some things I don't understand. As for whether I will help you or cause you trouble, that's still unknown."
When Huo Juncheng heard Lin Yilan say this, his gloomy face gradually returned to normal. "Come back to the Huo family with me now, and don't have any contact with that Cass anymore."
"I'll go back if I want to. Who's afraid of who?"
Lin Yilan said, got off the bed and pushed Huo Juncheng out the door.
"What are you doing?"
"Change clothes!"
Lin Yilan retorted loudly, pushed Huo Juncheng out of the door, and slammed the door shut with great noise.
It was not until later that Lin Yilan found out that this hotel was owned by the Huo family. When the staff here saw Lin Yilan and Cass appear here, they notified Huo Juncheng early on.
That's why Huo Juncheng rushed over in such a short time.
…
"Jun Cheng, come here, I have something to talk to you about."
After returning to the Huo family, Lin Yilan jumped out of the car and went straight back to her room without waiting for Huo Juncheng. Huo Juncheng wanted to chase her, but was stopped by Grandma Huo.
Huo Juncheng looked up at Grandma Huo upstairs, then glanced at Lin Yilan's room. Finally, he went upstairs and entered the room with Grandma Huo.
"Juncheng, have you and Yilan had any conflicts recently?"
Hearing Grandma Huo's question, Huo Juncheng's expression did not change significantly. He said lightly, "No."
But who is Grandma Huo? She watched Huo Juncheng grow up. Even though Huo Juncheng is good at hiding his emotions, Grandma Huo noticed that he was irritable at the moment.
In addition, Grandma Huo has been observing Huo Juncheng and Lin Yilan in the past few days. Even though she has never asked, she has seen all the changes in the two of them in these days.
