Chapter 80 You Must Show Up
Chu Xi stared at Lin Yilan blankly, pretending to be innocent and saying, "Madam, feel free to ask whatever you want to ask. I will tell you everything I know."
"What exactly happened between you and Huo Juncheng that day?" Lin Yilan looked at Chu Xi beside her without blinking.
Chu Xi hesitated.
He couldn't explain it for a long time.
This made Lin Yilan even more certain of what she was thinking, that perhaps nothing had happened between Huo Juncheng and Chu Xi.
So, why did Chu Xi lie to himself?
"I have always treated you as a good friend. Have I offended you in any way?" Lin Yilan looked at Chu Xi and asked.
After a long while, Chu Xi suddenly said, "Master, there's a coffee shop here. Just leave us there."
"Let's go have a cup of coffee." Chu Xi opened the car door and looked back at Lin Yilan.
Lin Yilan went to the coffee shop with Chu Xi and each ordered a cup of coffee.
"I like Huo Juncheng. I have liked him for a long time, since the first time I saw him." Chu Xi made no secret of her feelings for Huo Juncheng.
After hearing Chu Xi's words, Lin Yilan's heart skipped a beat.
She is too naive!
Chu Xi casually stirred the sugar cube in her coffee cup with a spoon. "I'm not worried at all about you telling Huo Juncheng about our conversation today. If he really had no feelings for me, he wouldn't have arranged an apartment for me."
"Do you think Huo Juncheng, who is so smart, would not know anything? Why would he allow me to do this? I guess he himself doesn't know what kind of feelings he has for you. Is it gratitude? Or love?"
Chu Xi saw that Lin Yilan didn't say a word, but she started chattering non-stop.
Long after leaving the cafe, Lin Yilan was immersed in Chu Xi's words and found it hard to accept.
Every word Chu Xi said echoed in her ears.
Could it be true that as she said, Huo Juncheng actually knew everything!
If this is really the case, she will find it hard to accept.
Lin Yilan met Shen Shenyan outside the school gate.
"Ms. Lin, what a coincidence." Shen Shenyan stood outside the gate of Ocean University in a gentle and elegant manner, looking at Lin Yilan with a smile on his face.
Lin Yilan didn't even look at him, ignored him as if he were air, and walked straight past him.
"I have a few photos that I'm sure you'll be very interested in. Mr. Huo and Miss Chu from the nightclub, their relationship is not as simple as it seems."
Seeing Lin Yilan's reaction, Shen Shenyan did not get angry. Instead, he followed Lin Yilan relentlessly and continued to speak.
Photos of Chu Xi and Huo Juncheng?
Suddenly, Lin Yilan stopped.
Seeing this, Ana Shen quickly handed the photo in his hand to Sylvia Lin.
"These photos are quite old. Actually, everyone knows that the relationship between Miss Chu and Mr. Huo is unusual."
"Why are you showing me this? What's your intention?"
Lin Yilan held the photo and looked at Ana Shen in front of her vigilantly.
The last time I went to Jinxiao Nightclub, it was Shen Shenyan who pointed out the route. This time, he deliberately waited for me outside the school gate.
The weasel pays a New Year's visit to the chicken, but he has no good intentions!
"I just feel like I'm standing up for you, Miss Lin. You said you've worked hard to learn martial arts for so many years, but you never thought Huo Juncheng would be such a person." Shen Shenyan smiled evilly and said calmly.
Lin Yilan stuffed the photo in her hand back to Shen Shenyan, "It's not your turn to worry about my affairs. No matter what happens between Huo Juncheng and me, it has nothing to do with you!"
Lin Yilan's decisive response was actually within Shen Shenyan's expectations.
Lin Yilan ignored Ana Shen and walked directly towards the dormitory.
While walking on the road, what Shen Shenyan said to her and what Chu Xi said echoed in her ears.
Lin Yilan was also absent-minded during class, as if her soul had flown away and only a body was left, like a walking corpse.
It wasn't until one afternoon two days later that Huo Juncheng called.
"I'll send someone to pick you up for the company's annual meeting tonight."
Annual meeting?
Lin Yilan frowned. What did the Huo family's affairs have to do with her? She didn't want to get involved at all.
So, Lin Yilan said directly in a bad mood: "Don't you have Chu Xi? Just let Chu Xi accompany you."
"Why are you still like this? Someone will send you a dress for the party. See you tonight!"
Huo Juncheng hung up the phone.
Lin Yilan didn't want to attend this annual meeting at all.
However, the people sent by Huo Juncheng have already arrived at the school.
A large group of people in uniform arrived outside Lin Yilan's dormitory. She had just returned from get out of class and saw this scene, and she thought she had offended someone and was being blocked at the door.
After asking carefully, I found out that these people were sent by Huo Juncheng.
"Ma'am, we are going to start styling your hair now. If you feel uncomfortable, please let us know in advance."
"Let's change Madam's clothes first. If the clothes don't fit, it will be very troublesome to alter them."
"Can you please be more specific about first come, first served? We already told Madam that we need to get our hair done first. You brought so many outfits anyway, it would be much easier to just put them on once the hair is done!"
......
It was obvious that there was a conflict between the costume stylist and hairstylist brought by Huo Juncheng.
Lin Yilan hadn't really wanted to attend this banquet in the first place, and after being disturbed by their commotion, she became even more upset. Without caring about the situation, she scolded them directly, "If you want to argue, go outside. Why don't you tell Huo Juncheng directly that I don't want to attend any banquet."
"Auntie, do you know what kind of banquet that is? It's the farewell party that the company held for Party A's father. Party A is an American who attaches great importance to family culture. Madam, if you don't go, how will Mr. Huo save you?" The person who spoke was the man who came with a costume designer and a hairstylist. Lin Yilan glanced at him and recalled carefully. They seemed to have met before.
This person should be one of Huo Juncheng's capable men, right?
After hearing what he said, Lin Yilan started to think again.
"Huo Juncheng could just find a random woman and say she's his fiancée. Someone like me who has never seen the world might end up ruining his business if I go there," Lin Yilan said unhappily.
"Just sit here quietly, and we'll set off once you've finished styling!"
After saying this, Lin Yilan was pressed on a chair by several people. After a lot of trouble, the stylist finally brought a mirror to Lin Yilan.
Lin Yilan looked at herself in the mirror. Her makeup was elegant but delicate. It took her more than half an hour to put on makeup for her face, but the final effect was stunning and not heavy.
