After returning upstairs, Huo Beiting was about to go to the bathroom to take a shower when the cell phone beside the bed suddenly rang.
Huo Beiting was stunned for a moment, put on the clothes he had taken off halfway, walked slowly to the bed and picked up the phone.
However, the moment he saw the phone number, Huo Beiting changed his lazy look and his eyes lit up.
It was Yan Qing calling, but why was he calling so early?
"Qingqing."
Huo Beiting's gentle and magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone, softening Yan Qing's ears.
"What are you doing?"
Yan Qing hasn't called Huo Beiting for a few days. It was because he was watching her too closely these days. She was afraid that her father would find out that she had secretly contacted Huo Beiting with a new number, so she didn't dare to contact Huo Beiting.
"I just finished breakfast and was going to the bathroom to take a shower."
Huo Beiting sat on the bed, looking at the scenery outside, with a faint smile on his lips.
Different from the smile he just had with Huo Yuanlu, the one just now was full of calculation and cunning.
This time, the smile seemed to carry a feeling of spring flowers blooming. If Yan Qing was right in front of him, she would involuntarily fall into Huo Beiting's gentle trap, unable to extricate herself and unwilling to come out. She just wanted to stay in this trap called gentleness forever.
"Oh, my dad is going on a business trip in a few days, but the specific date hasn't been decided yet. Let's go out together on that day! We haven't seen each other for a long time."
Yan Qing chewed her lips and spoke, her tone full of longing and resentment, as if she was blaming Huo Beiting for not coming to see her for such a long time.
"Okay, I can come any time. I miss you too."
Huo Beiting has been looking at old photos of himself and Yan Qing these days, but photos can never compare to the real person.
What's more, he used to enjoy the feeling of seeing each other every moment, but suddenly he felt very uncomfortable after not seeing each other for a long time.
I have an indescribable feeling every day, I just feel very bored and don’t want to do anything. Sometimes I don’t even want to go downstairs to eat. This is probably the legendary lovesickness.
Huo Beiting guessed that it was very likely that his illness was not healed, otherwise why would he miss her so much.
"Well, wait for my news! I finally got this news from Assistant Zhang. My dad is treating me like a thief now. Not only does he not let me know anything, but he also watches me every day. If he doesn't have time, he'll have someone else watch me. Ahhh! It seems like he's going out to meet you! When will this kind of life end?"
Yan Qing's voice was very steady when he first started speaking, but after just a few words, his tone changed.
"It's okay. After all, he is your father, my future father-in-law, so let's wait a little longer."
Huo Beiting felt even more melancholy. He wanted to take Yan Qing home as soon as possible more than anyone else.
"How can you be so shameless? I haven't agreed to anything yet. My dad is not your father-in-law!"
Yan Qing snorted as he spoke, the voice full of arrogance.
"Okay, okay, no, no, but it's only a matter of time."
Yan Qing snorted twice. Being interrupted by Huo Beiting, she forgot her previous unhappiness and started talking to Huo Beiting.
The two talked a lot. After telling each other all the recent events, they still felt a little unsatisfied, so they started talking about all sorts of things.
Neither of them knew what they were talking about, but no one hung up the phone first.
This situation continued until the person Yan Qing sent to monitor Yan Qing returned.
"Beiting, someone's coming! I'm hanging up first. If my dad finds out, we'll both be dead! We'll talk later! I'm hanging up first!"
Before Huo Beiting even had time to say goodbye, Yan Qing hung up the phone.
Huo Beiting looked at the hung up phone and sighed softly. At this moment, Huo Yuanlu passed by Huo Beiting's room and cast a sad look at Huo Beiting, but Huo Beiting ignored him and strode to the door of the room. He closed the door forcefully, blocking Huo Yuanlu's sight.
On the other side, Yan Qing thought that it was someone sent by her father to watch over her, but when the person walked in, she found out that it was Liu Xiaoyun.
Yan Qing was surprised for a moment, then quickly stood up and said.
"Why are you here?"
Liu Xiaoyun's eyes, which were originally smiling, froze slightly when he heard Yan Qing's words, but soon returned to their original state.
"I came here to discuss something that happened online. I've caused you a lot of trouble lately because of me. It's been a while since I said that online, and I think it's almost time. I wanted to discuss breaking up with you, but I'm not sure what you think. I'm afraid I might do something wrong and hurt you, so I came here to ask for your opinion."
Liu Xiaoyun always maintained a gentlemanly smile, giving people a sense of distance that was neither too far nor too close.
Yan Qing said "oh" twice and suddenly remembered this matter.
During this period of time, she had been busy trying to clear up her father's misunderstanding of Huo Beiting and had long put this matter behind her.
"I don't have any objection, just do as you see fit."
Yan Qing paused, then suddenly thought of something and said.
"How about this, when we break up, you can just put the blame on me. I'm not in the entertainment industry anyway, and those fans will forget who I am in a few days. But you're different. You're a movie star. If you get into any bad scandals, your company will definitely buy you out!"
As he spoke, Yan Qing made a cannibalistic gesture, which made Liu Xiaoyun couldn't help laughing.
"That won't work. You're a girl, so it doesn't matter to me. Those fans are just people in the company who like you. I don't pay much attention to them. I only care about the people and things that matter to me, like my work and the people I like."
When he said the last sentence, Liu Xiaoyun looked at Yan Qing deeply, almost making Yan Qing have another illusion.
Yan Qing turned his head and coughed lightly twice, pretending that he heard nothing. After thinking for a while, he said.
"How about this? Just say we're not compatible. It might seem a bit perfunctory, but it's a good excuse. Besides, many celebrities in the entertainment industry use relationship disagreements as an excuse to get divorced or break up. And I'm sure your fans would love to see you break up!"
At this point, Yan Qing couldn't help but laugh. Fearing that Liu Xiaoyun might misunderstand her, she continued.
"Don't get me wrong, I mean, most of your fans are lesbians. They treat you as their husband. Who wants their husband to like another woman? So they must be very willing to see you break up!"
