Yan Qing only reacted the moment he opened the door.
Obviously someone was holding the door open for her, but she didn't need to think about who it was.
Yan Qing ran in excitedly and jumped onto Huo Beiting.
"When did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance? If I had known, I would have come back earlier tonight. You don't know how much I missed you during this time!"
Yan Qing buried her head tightly in Huo Beiting's arms, and her hands kept wiping the oil off Huo Beiting's body. Her nose twitched up and down, like a puppy that hadn't seen its owner for a long time.
Huo Beiting supported Yan Qing's body and put her on the sofa.
"Have you had dinner tonight? I made your favorite dishes."
Yan Qing was instantly moved. This man was like a worm in her stomach. How did he know that she didn't eat much at night?
"I'm never going to participate in banquets again. Not only are they boring, but they're also annoying!"
As Yan Qing spoke, he moved his head close to Huo Beiting and looked at him seriously. After a long time, he shook his head, but then nodded.
"You and him do look a lot alike. If you didn't know, you'd think you were the same person! But you're not. He's just an annoying person, but you're not as good as me. Not only is he not annoying, but he's also very troublesome. You can even handle any chore or work you ask of you. You're truly a versatile person, and you have a really good temper!"
After hearing this, Huo Beiting now understood who Yan Qing was talking about, and he almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
I wondered what her expression would be if someone suddenly told her one day that the two of them were actually the same person. She would probably go crazy!
"I know the person you're talking about. We keep in touch occasionally, but we haven't met in a long time."
Huo Beiting now lies without hesitation. If someone had told him a few months ago that he would one day lie all the time, he would have definitely beaten that person to death.
"That's what he said. Let me tell you, that guy is really annoying. My dad doesn't know what's going on, but he insists on bringing us two together. How could he and I possibly be together? It makes my scalp tingle just thinking about it!"
Yan Qing couldn't help but shake his arms, with a look of disgust on his face, not noticing that Huo Beiting's face had unknowingly darkened.
"What did he do to make you hate him so much? I spent some time with him when we were kids, and he seemed like a pretty good guy. Besides, he's in charge of a company now. He shouldn't be someone who would offend anyone, whether in terms of his abilities or how he speaks and does things!"
As Huo Beiting spoke, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart whether he had done anything else tonight. But after thinking for a long time, he felt that tonight was really impeccable, except that he was a little shameless. But it was Yan Qing who kept avoiding him, so he had no choice!
"What do you mean it's not bad? He's just like a piece of dog-skin plaster, following me everywhere I go, and he doesn't understand me. I've already told him that I don't need him to send me back, I can go back on my own, but he keeps insisting. It's really annoying!"
Huo Beiting fell silent for a moment. Yan Qing came in without noticing anything wrong with Huo Beiting and was still talking there.
"And you even stole my food. Can't you just get it yourself? You have hands, and you have the nerve to bully a little girl!"
Huo Beiting actually just wanted to be closer to her. He was tired of the food at home. What's more, he could eat anytime and anywhere. He just had to call out and someone would bring it to him in half an hour.
As for what happened at night, he was just worried that a girl might be in danger if she returned home, so how did it become a pig's-skin plaster?
"Maybe he just wanted to talk to you, but he didn't find the right way! And as for sending you off tonight, you're a girl after all. No one would let a powerless girl leave alone, no matter who they were."
Huo Beiting tried hard to defend himself, and only noticed Yan Qing's suspicious look after he finished speaking.
Huo Beiting turned his face away, clenched his fist and coughed lightly twice.
"Aren't you jealous? A grown man suddenly wants to show me his affection, and you're still talking to him. Why does it feel a little strange to me?"
Yan Qing rubbed his hands on both sides of his pants, grabbed Huo Beiting's collar and pulled him forward.
"Tell me the truth, you've been acting really strange tonight! Normally, if I say a word to another man, you'll come back and ask me why, but today you're taking his side!"
Huo Beiting's eyes kept turning as he tried hard to think of the right words.
"Of course I'm jealous, but compared to jealousy and your safety, I want you to be well. Even if I have to stay with another man for a while longer, as long as you can return home safely, I can accept it!"
Huo Beiting looked at Yan Qing "sincerely".
Yan Qing stared at Huo Beiting intently. If he saw anything wrong, he would have no chance of having a good night.
However, Huo Beiting's acting skills were really good. Yan Qing stared at him for a long time but couldn't find anything wrong, so he finally let him go.
The moment Huo Beiting was released, he breathed a sigh of relief silently. No one knew that his back was already soaked with sweat.
"Hurry up and eat! It's getting cold."
Huo Beiting didn't dare to face Yan Qing for another second, worried that she would notice him in that second, so he quickly turned around and served Yan Qing food.
"Oh, right, my dad was acting really weird tonight. Normally, no matter how big the company situation was, he wouldn't leave his daughter alone in a stranger's house. But he did just that today. I feel like my dad must be hiding something from me!"
Halfway through the meal, Yan Qing suddenly remembered something, put down his chopsticks and looked at Huo Beiting with a puzzled look, which made his hair almost stand on end.
When he heard that it was about Yan's father, Huo Beiting couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was really scared just now.
"What's wrong, uncle? Maybe he's really anxious about the company's affairs! And you can't be considered strangers! After all, you were even talking about marriage!"
Yan Qing slapped Huo Beiting on the shoulder, pouted and yelled angrily, "Go to hell!"
"What are you talking about marriage? Stop talking nonsense, okay?"
Because of Huo Beiting's interruption, Yan Qing completely forgot about his father's affairs and concentrated on eating.
After dinner, Huo Beiting accompanied Yan Qing in the yard to digest the food. The two of them walked slowly along the path, bathed in the moonlight.
After walking for about half an hour, Yan Qing felt a little sleepy. After saying goodbye to Huo Beiting, she went straight upstairs.
After Yan Qing went upstairs, Huo Beiting finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had been spending the night like he was in a war. He wasn't even so nervous during his first business negotiation.
I have to say that women’s intuition is sometimes really accurate, and you should never lie, because one lie requires countless lies to cover it up, and sometimes you even have to drag your relatives and friends to lie together, which is simply too difficult!
