Chapter 62

Huo Yuyan looked in one direction for a long while.

He was sure that the man in the crowd's gaze was on him, or more precisely, on the hand he and Shen Yuntang were holding.

He paused, and suddenly he didn't feel embarrassed anymore. What was wrong with him being dragged away by Miss Shen? Some people couldn't even be dragged away even if they wanted to.

He should be proud.

So Huo Yuyan straightened his back a little more and raised his chin a little, as if he had finally adapted to the occasion. He waved to the people around him, nodded, strode forward, and smiled.

The frightened onlookers finally reacted.

Miss Shen is actually...really married?

There was a sound of heartbreak all over the place.

Such a beautiful lady! Such a beautiful lady that I just met! She got married at such a young age!

Who can bear this blow!

It seems that her husband, although an entrepreneur and quite handsome, is really naive and a little silly, as if he was being taken for a walk by Miss Shen.

If it weren't for the awkward steps he took when getting off the car, I guess many people would think that he and Miss Shen are a good match.

Why did he take those two steps?

…

But this doesn't seem to be a bad thing, right?

If a particularly cold and domineering president really came, he would be more like an opponent to Miss Shen rather than a husband and wife.

The main reason is that Mr. Shen’s aura is too strong.

Being covered by her like this...how come it feels so subtle and just right?

A domineering female president and her little husband?

Shit, now it’s easier to eat!

After some self-consolation, the mood of the onlookers was gradually saved. Just get married, it's not like everyone has liked someone else's wife.

Although it's a pity that the beautiful woman has to go through the experience of marriage, her husband doesn't look like he dares to bully her. Instead, he looks like he will be bullied by her. So it seems not so bad.

Everyone looked at Huo Yuyan jealously as he was led by Shen Yuntang across the red carpet.

Huo Yuyan had originally thought that he had to have a stronger aura so that everyone would recognize him as Shen Yuntang's only husband based on his external conditions.

But after seeing Xie Yunting, his attitude changed.

It doesn’t matter whether he is strong or not, the main thing is that Miss Shen dotes on him.

He followed Shen Yuntang's steps obediently all the way, not daring to walk faster or slower. He greeted whoever she greeted, and always politely prefixed his self-introduction with a sentence: "Hello, I am Mr. Shen's lover."

He felt very happy.

I wanted to jump to Xie Yunting immediately and tell him that Shen Yuntang kissed me, Shen Yuntang said she liked me, and Shen Yuntang allowed me to call her wife. So, you didn’t, right?

But the last bit of reserve of the aloof elite still made him restrain himself from getting too cocky.

Looking at the whole place, his wife was the prettiest one.

Although the dress also had some merit and attracted many people's admiration, the person wearing the dress was the highlight.

If you change the frame, you won't be able to achieve such a shocking effect.

They finally walked the red carpet amid the crazy flashing lights and entered the guest seats. Just as they were about to sit down, Shen Yuntang asked him, "Did you see anyone?"

Huo Yuyan, who was still in high spirits, suddenly paused, a little nervous, turned his head slightly, and said, "No."

"I always feel like someone is watching us." Shen Yuntang frowned.

Huo Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the front and sat down, holding the armrest and said frankly: "Everyone is staring at us, they envy me to death."

Shen Yuntang was skeptical and turned his head away expressionlessly.

Award ceremonies are always boring no matter where they are held, even if familiar friends are present on stage.

Shen Yuntang looked at these big stars coming and going, and found that he didn't recognize any of them, so he gradually raised his head with his hands.

Seeing that she was distracted, Huo Yuyan quickly turned around calmly and glanced at the faces of the people in the guest seats.

Although they were sitting in the first row, they could see all the people behind them just by turning their heads, but the light in the audience was not bright, and some people were whispering to each other or standing up and walking, so they could not see clearly for a while.

He turned around four or five times as if unintentionally before he finally found Xie Yunting.

Sitting in the back two rows, his face was very indifferent. He seemed to be listening to the boring flattery and interaction on the stage, and he clapped politely to the rhythm of the host.

Amid the chaos of the people around him, he seemed exceptionally quiet.

This situation is clearly different from what I saw outside just now.

Huo Yuyan pondered for a moment.

It is normal to meet one or two people you don't like in such occasions. After all, anyone can invest in movies, and he can't hold others' hands and stop them from making payments.

But he really didn't think he would meet Xie Yunting.

He had learned about ST's background in detail. They had only entered the domestic market from abroad in recent years and had been operating in a low-key manner. He had little dealings with them and they formed their own faction. Many people had complained that they could not contact them even if they wanted to cooperate.

I've never heard of him investing in movies again.

He had reason to suspect that this guy was coming for his wife.

Perhaps realizing that someone was staring at him, Xie Yunting paused and tilted his head.

Huo Yuyan's eyes met his.

But two seconds later, they moved apart again.

Huo Yuyan thought about it for a long time and still felt that he had ulterior motives.

He thought for a long time and felt that it was not good to hide it from Shen Yuntang, so he struggled silently for a while, touched her elbow, and whispered: "I just saw Xie Yunting."

Shen Yuntang raised his eyes.

"I guess you came to see the effect of the dress?" Huo Yuyan said with false magnanimity.

"The organizer will post pictures on Weibo, so he doesn't need to go through so much trouble." Shen Yuntang nodded, "I think he has other purposes."

At such a critical moment, did he find something to hint to her?

Shen Yuntang found it very suspicious.

She also looked back and soon found Xie Yunting's location.

But Xie Yunting did not look at her as he looked at Huo Yuyan. Instead, he pretended not to notice and continued to clapped politely.

"It's even stranger." Shen Yuntang turned back and said slowly, "What does he mean?"

Although he felt sad that his wife was thinking about another man's thoughts, Huo Yuyan was also a good man who took the overall situation into consideration. He immediately said, "I'll think about it with you."

"I just told him last time that if the plot is tampered with, for example, my career development is hindered, I asked him to help me slap it in the face. So, is he coming here today because he thinks that something will happen at the awards ceremony that will affect me? So that we can solve it face to face?"

Shen Yuntang pondered.

Huo Yuyan was silent for a moment, then said, "Have you ever thought about the simplest possibility?"

"What's possible?" Shen Yuntang asked him.

She really seemed to have no idea, and was even a little eager to learn.

Huo Yuyan choked, looked at Xie Yunting, then looked at her, feeling that it was a little outrageous, yet it did seem reasonable.

He probed: "...You've never had a crush on anyone, have you?"

Shen Yuntang looked as if he was asking a stupid question, "Of course not."

…

That's right, with her temper, how could she possibly like someone else? Even if she did, she wouldn't hide it.

Huo Yuyan suddenly felt a little happy again.

Miss Shen, who looked down upon everyone, now falls for him.

And it's very straightforward.

There's no such thing as doing it in secret.

Huo Yuyan forced himself to calm down from his accelerated heartbeat. Although it was difficult to say, he felt that this issue must be clarified with Shen Yuntang.

He said solemnly: "Xie Yunting may have a crush on you."

Shen Yuntang seemed to be amused by his joke, so she retracted her smile and attributed his unreasonable behavior to his delusional thinking. She turned back expressionlessly, "It's more reasonable that you want to save the world."

…

She doesn't believe it?

Why don't you believe it? This guy has shown it so clearly.

Huo Yuyan couldn't believe it. He was stunned for a moment and asked her: "Then how do you know that I like you?"

Shen Yuntang didn't even bother to look at him, "Do you need to look at who you like?"

If he had a tail, it would wag like a propeller, and his thoughts were written on his face, so there was no need to guess. He was so straightforward and obvious about who he liked, it was almost like he was shouting in her ear with a loud speaker.

Huo Yuyan couldn't hide his thoughts at all.

After hearing what Shen Yuntang said, he was speechless for a long time.

He buried his head in self-reflection.

He was even more obvious than Xie Yunting? This was impossible.

After a while, Huo Yuyan finally came out of his autism, raised his head, and repeated seriously: "He really has a crush on you, absolutely has a crush on you."

"Yeah." Shen Yuntang agreed perfunctorily.

Huo Yuyan racked his brains to find evidence. "If it wasn't a secret crush, who would design such a laborious dress for a girl for free?"

"Brother."

Huo Yuyan was choking on all the evidence he had in his mouth. He had been thinking about carrying the bag, putting on the coat, and all the other behaviors directed at him, but it seemed that this reason could barely explain it.

He was silent for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed through his mind.

"Wait." He suddenly said, "Let me be suspicious for a moment. Is Xie Yunting awakened or does he not belong to this world like you? If it's the latter, then... did he know you before?"

Shen Yuntang was surprised. "You can see this? I do have this suspicion. He told me that he is an awakened character, but I feel like he is like my brother in that world."

No wonder, no wonder.

Huo Yuyan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and was able to sit back down again. He casually asked, "Is this your biological child?"

"Adopted."

Huo Yuyan almost fell down again.

"What kind of brother is that? He's just a childhood sweetheart at best!" Huo Yuyan almost couldn't hold back his voice, his heart was in turmoil, "What if he really is that person? Then wouldn't it be reasonable for him to have a crush on you?"

Shen Yuntang glanced at him.

"It's unlikely," she said. "In my world, the brother is a person who cares a lot about what others think. After all, he is adopted, so it's impossible for him not to suppress all thoughts that don't conform to the world's moral values."

Shen Zhizhe actually has some low self-esteem. He is very careful and meticulous every day in the Shen family, and will never allow himself to make such a big mistake. Even if he makes a mistake accidentally, he will immediately stop the wrong path.

She paused suddenly as she spoke.

Huo Yuyan also became quiet.

After a while, his heartbeat became strangely faster, and he said with dry lips: "Then..."

"Have you ever thought that the reason we are looking for may be the simplest one?"

Shen Yuntang raised his head.

She looked at Huo Yuyan for a long while.

Huo Yuyan had never seen her expression so solemn.

After a long while, she finally said, "Let's go."

What? Huo Yuyan was stunned.

Shen Yuntang was extremely calm and said calmly, "I'm going to find evidence."
