Chapter 186 Night Market



Fu Qinian swiftly and decisively dealt with Fu Bo's family, thanks to his prior preparations, which allowed him to successfully capture them all in one fell swoop.

After finishing his company business, Fu Qinian immediately rushed to Beijing to begin his journey to win back his wife.

However, Huo Jinning was completely unaware of this at the time; she didn't even realize that she had become Fu Qinian's target.

Fu Qinian knew that winning over Huo Jinning would not be easy, but he was not discouraged and was determined to do his best.

Huo Jinning knew that her injury was related to Fu Qinian, but she still felt guilty because Fu Qinian was injured while saving her.

After Fu Qinian arrived in Beijing, she was always there for him whenever he asked.

Fu Qinian also kept flirting with Huo Jinning to improve their relationship.

...

"Sigh, how boring," Huo Jinning said with a sigh as she lay on the bed.

Suddenly, she came across a video: "Huh, where is this? A night market?"

It turns out that a food blogger was introducing a night market in Beijing. The video showed a bustling and lively scene with a dazzling array of snacks.

Huo Jinning stared wide-eyed, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Wow, it looks delicious!" Huo Jinning exclaimed excitedly.

The bystander asked, "What are you busy with? I want to go to the night market, do you want to come?"

Fu Qinian replied almost instantly.

"Okay, I'll come pick you up."

Soon, they arrived at the night market.

Upon entering the night market, Huo Jinning was stunned by the scene before her—a bustling crowd, the constant shouts of vendors, and the fragrant aromas wafting from the food stalls…

All of this felt incredibly novel to her.

Fu Qinian was somewhat uncomfortable with such a noisy environment, but he did not show it.

Huo Jinning looked around curiously, like a cheerful little bird.

She saw a stall selling candied hawthorns and immediately ran over to buy two skewers. Then, she handed one skewer to Fu Qinian, smiling and saying, "Try this, it's delicious!"

Fu Qinian took the candied hawthorn, took a bite, and the sweet and sour taste spread in his mouth.

He nodded slightly in agreement.

Next, they visited many stalls and sampled various delicacies.

Huo Jinning enjoyed her meal while chatting happily with Fu Qinian.

Although Fu Qinian didn't talk much, he would still chime in with a word or two.

"Boss, give me two grilled squid."

"Boss, two glasses of juice, please."

"Boss, give me ten lamb skewers."

"..."

As Huo Jinning walked, she ate the snacks in her hand, and of course, she didn't forget Fu Qinian beside her.

She handed him the food in her hands, smiling as she said, "Try this, it tastes great!"

Fu Qinian couldn't refuse Huo Jinning's kindness, so he accepted it all and began to savor each dish.

He found that the food tasted rather unique; it wasn't particularly delicious, but it wasn't bad either.

However, at that moment, an unexpected person appeared before them—Xu Luoqing.

She was wearing a black hat, sunglasses, and sportswear. If Huo Jinning hadn't spent a lot of time with her recently, she would hardly have recognized her.

This side of Xu Luoqing is completely different from her usual aloof demeanor.

Perhaps it was because Huo Jinning stared at her for too long that she caught Xu Luoqing's attention.

At first, Xu Luoqing thought she had been recognized by her fans and felt a little nervous.

But when she saw that the person who came was Huo Jinning, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Ningning, what a coincidence," Xu Luoqing greeted, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Qingqing, it really is you. I thought I was seeing things," Huo Jinning said with a hint of surprise.

"Hmm, who is this?" Xu Luoqing looked at Fu Qinian curiously, asking with a gossipy expression.

"This is my friend, Fu Qinian. Ah Qi, this is Xu Luoqing, whom I met while filming a variety show," Huo Jinning introduced them.

"Hello."

"Hello."

The two simply greeted each other.

Xu Luoqing could tell at a glance that Fu Qinian was no ordinary person; he possessed an extraordinary demeanor that was not something that ordinary people could have.

"Qingqing, I never expected you to come to a place like this," Huo Jinning said with a gentle smile.

"Yeah, my manager usually keeps a lot of control over me. It's only today that I was able to sneak out because she wasn't around." Xu Luoqing touched her nose a little embarrassedly.

"You celebrities are indeed required to be strict with your body management, but Qingqing, you are already very thin."

"There's nothing I can do. People look fat on camera. Only when you're thinner will you look good on screen," Xu Luoqing said, shaking her head helplessly.

"That's because the screen is horizontal, which makes people appear wider," Huo Jinning explained.

"I see..." Xu Luoqing nodded, indicating her understanding.

"Aren't you bored here all by yourself? Why don't you come with us for a walk? You'll have company," Huo Jinning warmly invited.

"Thank you, but I have to go back soon. Let's get together again next time." Xu Luoqing smiled and politely declined.

So the two of them went off to continue shopping.

Huo Jinning still had some questions in her mind: "Why do I feel that Xu Luoqing looks very different today?"

However, this thought was quickly taken over by the food, and she immediately immersed herself in enjoying the delicious food.

However, Xu Luoqing, who was originally passionate and flamboyant, is behaving so differently now.

In fact, all of this stems from the pressure brought about by her family background.

From a very young age, her family arranged a marriage for her, but she was not satisfied with her future husband, especially his disdainful attitude towards her family background.

For various reasons, she was unable to directly refuse the marriage proposal.

Therefore, Xu Luoqing decided to take a special approach to counter this situation—entering the entertainment industry.

She knew that the other party didn't like women working in the public eye, so she deliberately chose this path; at the same time, she knew that the other party disliked aloof and boring girls, so she deliberately acted that way.

After years of hard work, Xu Luoqing has finally achieved some results.

Recently, her fiancé has started considering breaking off the engagement.

Therefore, she can gradually return to her original self and no longer need to pretend to be that indifferent person.

After parting ways with Huo Jinning, Xu Luoqing did not leave immediately, but instead wandered around the area for a while.

She thought to herself, "I don't want to be that third wheel."

The tender look in Fu Qinian's eyes when he looked at Huo Jinning made her sigh, "These two are really so loving..."

She felt relaxed and at ease strolling alone through the food street.

She leisurely enjoyed the lively scene around her and appreciated the beauty of life.

However, because she needed to control her weight, she did not indulge in a large meal; she simply sampled some snacks and left.

After all, it's also important for actors to maintain their physique.
