Chapter 720: Scared
Huo Juncheng's cold words made Song Siyu's face instantly look much uglier.
Song Siyu felt a slight pain in her heart. Why didn't Huo Juncheng even want to listen to the story she made up?
Originally, she was still immersed in her own fantasy, but Huo Juncheng only said one sentence, and her beautiful fantasy was shattered in an instant.
"Indeed, but people are selfish. There's nothing wrong with wanting to get something beautiful and owning it. What's more, it's a girl's purest love." Song Siyu wanted to continue telling his story.
Song Siyu's fingers trembled slightly as she held Huo Juncheng's arm. She knew in her heart that this might be the last time she and Huo Juncheng would be together. When she left Haicheng, she might have to rely on this memory to get through the next long and difficult time.
Huo Juncheng's eyes fell on the button that Song Siyu was holding with her other hand, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"Perhaps you think humans are selfish, but I think the biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans can restrain their selfish desires for the sake of social fairness. If beautiful things don't belong to a person, even if that person obtained them through despicable means, it's certainly wrong."
"Mr. Huo..." Song Siyu was lost in his own emotions.
Huo Juncheng's arms were strong and powerful, and the soft touch was transmitted to her fingertips through the fabric and reached her heart.
She had been in love with this man for so long, but why did she put in so much effort and only get such a little contact? Song Siyu's heart was filled with resentment and attachment.
"Juncheng." With emotions surging, Song Siyu couldn't help but change the way he addressed Huo Juncheng.
"Song Siyu, I don't think we are close enough for you to call me that." Huo Juncheng's expression became much gloomier.
Hearing Huo Juncheng's words, Song Siyu suddenly came to her senses. She raised her head and looked at Huo Juncheng. The man's eyes were filled with indifference and alienation, even mixed with a hint of disgust.
Song Siyu's heart ached. "It's just a name, Mr. Huo, why do you care so much?"
As she spoke, she raised the button in her hand again, "I think Juncheng, you must be eager to communicate with me now, and you also like me calling you Juncheng."
Huo Juncheng was helpless, "If that's what you want, then it's up to you."
"Juncheng, can you hug me?" Song Siyu was not satisfied with just holding Huo Juncheng's arm and made a more excessive request.
Huo Juncheng pursed his lips slightly and did not move.
Seeing that Huo Juncheng was unwilling, Song Siyu did not force him anymore. She smiled helplessly.
She had worked so hard for so long, endured so much humiliation, yet she still failed so completely. She held the button in her hand, but Huo Juncheng was unwilling to agree to her small request.
But...what to do, she really seemed to want his hug.
Even though Huo Juncheng already hated her, she still couldn't help but love him.
"Don't you even want to give me a goodbye hug?" Song Siyu murmured with her head down.
"Okay." Just when Song Siyu was sad, Huo Juncheng suddenly opened his arms.
Song Siyu's body froze. Huo Juncheng's hug caught her off guard. She was instantly enveloped by the man's aura, and a surge of joy filled her heart.
But the next second, Huo Juncheng suddenly reached out and grabbed the button in her hand.
Song Siyu reacted, exclaimed, and wanted to withdraw her hand to prevent Huo Juncheng from getting it.
Huo Juncheng had no intention of hugging Song Siyu, but when he saw the button in Song Siyu's hand, he thought this was a good opportunity to get it. Now that the two of them had left the Huo family, even if he accidentally touched the button while trying to grab it, Lin Yilan would be fine.
"Don't even think about getting it!" Song Siyu screamed.
But Huo Juncheng was stronger than Song Siyu, and he clamped Song Siyu's hand, making her unable to move. Song Siyu was anxious and pressed the button directly.
Huo Juncheng was shocked, but the expected explosion did not come.
Is the button fake?
Huo Juncheng looked at Song Siyu, who had a grim smile on his face, and a hint of complacency.
Could it be that the device that activated this button was at Huo's house, not on her? Was she doing this just to distract him? Did Smith's men go to Huo's house while he was away?
Huo Juncheng panicked. If the bomb really hit Song Siyu, then wouldn't Lin Yilan, who was still sleeping at Huo's house...
Huo Juncheng didn't dare to think further.
"Huo Juncheng, why are you so ruthless..." Crystal tears rolled down the corners of Song Siyu's eyes.
"Why... uh..." Song Siyu didn't have the chance to continue crying because Huo Juncheng grabbed her neck.
"Song Siyu, you are so capable!" Huo Juncheng's voice trembled a little. He pinched Song Siyu's neck and dragged her step by step towards the Huo family.
Song Siyu was strangled to the point of being unable to speak, and was dragged to the door of the Huo family by Huo Juncheng.
By the time they reached the Huo family's door, Song Siyu had been strangled to unconsciousness.
"Where is Yilan?" Huo Juncheng asked Gao Hu and Long Cheng who were standing at the door. As for Song Siyu who had already fainted, Huo Juncheng threw her directly to the ground.
"Miss Lin is sleeping in the room." Gao Hu and Long Cheng were puzzled as they looked at Song Siyu lying unconscious on the ground. They didn't know what Huo Juncheng was doing.
Huo Juncheng was instantly relieved when he heard that Lin Yilan was fine.
"Mr. Huo, what happened?" Gao Hu asked.
Huo Juncheng ignored them and went straight into the Huo family. Lin Yilan had just gotten up and saw that Huo Juncheng was gone. She walked out of the room in a daze to look for Huo Juncheng.
When Huo Juncheng saw Lin Yilan, Lin Yilan was yawning and walking downstairs.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yilan yawned and found Huo Juncheng standing at the stairs looking at her affectionately, still a little confused.
Only when he saw Lin Yilan standing in front of him did Huo Juncheng truly breathe a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong? You look so bad." Seeing Huo Juncheng like this, Lin Yilan hurried down the stairs, held Huo Juncheng's hand, and found that Huo Juncheng's hand was also cold.
Lin Yilan's expression changed slightly. She reached into Huo Juncheng's sleeve and touched it, and found it was covered in cold sweat.
"Huo Juncheng! Speak!" Lin Yilan was anxious. She was worried about Huo Juncheng's health.
Huo Juncheng felt the temperature of Lin Yilan's body and couldn't control himself, so he pressed Lin Yilan into his arms.
"I'm glad you're okay." Huo Juncheng rubbed Lin Yilan's hair, and his accelerated heartbeat slowly calmed down.
Lin Yilan didn't understand Huo Juncheng's series of "operations". She patted Huo Juncheng's shoulder, freeing herself from his embrace, and angrily said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you sweating so much so early in the morning?"
Huo Juncheng was stunned for a moment, then answered honestly, "I was scared."
Lin Yilan narrowed her eyes. "Can you still be scared? What scared you?"
Huo Juncheng looked at Lin Yilan without saying anything. Lin Yilan pointed at herself doubtfully and asked, "Are you scared by me?"
He still didn't say anything, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly. Lin Yilan saw Huo Juncheng laughing secretly, and she was angry in her heart, but she also laughed.
"Why did I scare you? Explain it to me."
