Chapter 1 No More Entanglement
In the warm coffee shop, the strange old woman threw a bank card directly in front of Huo Xiang.
"Young man, you are so young, why do you have to be a homosexual? It is really immoral and corrupt! You can degenerate yourself, but why do you have to drag my Xiaoqian into it? If he hadn't sponsored your schooling, you would be rotting in some coal mine now! Is this how you repay him?"
The old woman spoke loudly. Although there were not many people in the cafe, they all looked in their direction without exception.
The golden card shone brightly under the refraction of the sunlight, like a sharp sword, piercing Huo Xiang so that he could not open his eyes.
He never expected that such a clichéd and corny plot would happen to him one day.
Three days ago, he became a hot topic because he was photographed by paparazzi while partying with Joan.
For Qiao An's star career, he took the initiative to claim himself on Weibo and added a sentence: "Let me introduce myself. I am Qiao An's best friend. I am a man and I like men."
Qiao An resolved the crisis, but Yi Qian got angry with him for the first time, saying that he had ruined his plan.
In fact, their relationship is just more than friends but less than lovers. Apart from saying "stay with me forever" when he was drunk one time, Yi Qian never even expressed his feelings clearly.
Huo Xiang was foolishly turned gay.
He didn't understand what plan he had ruined.
Firstly, he never mentioned Yi Qian on the internet, and secondly, he had nothing to do with Yi Qian and they had never even held hands.
He just wanted to protect his friends and exercised his right to freedom of speech. What did he do wrong?
Yi Qian did not answer, but only said that they should calm down for a few days and hoped that he would not do anything to embarrass him again.
Huo Xiang always thought that Yi Qian also liked him, and those overt and covert ambiguous expressions were the evidence. It's just that due to the resistance from his family, he hasn't made it clear yet.
So over the years, Huo Xiang did his best to help Yi Qian. In addition to repaying his financial support, he also hoped that the Yi family would one day see his efforts and sincerity and help them both.
But it turned out that in Yi Qian's eyes, his infatuation was actually embarrassing for him?
Huo Xiang originally planned to give himself and Yi Qian another chance, so he waited silently.
Finally, I received a bank card like this.
The old woman on the other side hugged her elbows and continued to chatter: "If you ask me, why bother with money? You should know that our Xiaoqian has a bright future now. If you really want to do good for him, you should accept this card and honestly return to your seat.
After all, this money is not something you can earn by being a kindergarten teacher or selling a few buns and wontons. Oh, I almost forgot, since you’re a homosexual, I guess no kindergarten would dare to accept you, right? ”
He could hear the whispers around him and feel the inquiring or contemptuous looks.
But he didn't care.
He also knew that the old woman in front of him might just have been sent by the Yi family, and Yi Qian was unaware of this.
But what’s the difference?
They all laughed at him for overestimating his own capabilities and unilaterally trying to cross a chasm.
He just wanted to give himself an explanation now, so he wanted to know what Yi Qian was doing.
"Why, do you want to complain to him?" the old woman asked sarcastically.
"Since you know, I won't hide it from you. You can ask if you want, but Xiaoqian is too busy to answer your call right now. He's on a blind date! And the girl is a real rich girl from South City! If everything goes well, we can get engaged today."
I advise you to be more open-minded. As long as you stop bothering Xiaoqian, this card will be yours. Look, you are still young. With this money, you can live a life that many people envy! ”
Huo Xiang felt a buzzing in his head, his eyes lost focus instantly, and his hands on his knees began to tremble uncontrollably.
Blind date...engagement...
No, this can't be true...
Yi Qian said he just wanted to calm down. How could he possibly go on a blind date with someone else, especially a girl...
Then what is he!
Huo Xiang pinched his knees, trying to calm himself down. After a while, he said, "You can't just believe everything I say. You have to let me see it with my own eyes before I can give up completely, right?"
A love-brained person pretending to be asleep, even if Huo Xiang is extremely reluctant to admit it, he has to rub salt into his own wounds with his own hands, so that he can be heartbroken enough to face the reality and stop the loss in time.
The old woman seemed to have expected him to say this. She sneered, took out a tablet from her bag and placed it in front of Huo Xiang.
The screen shows real-time surveillance footage, and everyone sitting around the dining table looks glamorous and beautiful.
The surrounding environment exudes low-key luxury everywhere, which is an occasion that most ordinary people will never be able to appreciate, let alone reach in their lifetime.
"Xiao Yi, let me be frank. What do you think of our Xin Xin?"
The old woman naturally came prepared, and the surveillance camera's audio was exceptionally clear.
Yi Qian in the picture was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and was just as gentle, elegant, and noble as Huo Xiang had remembered him to be.
He had a proper smile on his face and said in a gentle voice: "Uncle Bai, Xinxin is...very good. We have known each other for many years and she has always been excellent."
"Hahaha, Xinxin is the apple of my eye. Of course I know how great she is! If I hadn't heard that you two were classmates in elementary school and your relationship is incomparable, and Xinxin thinks so highly of you, I would never give up on you. I guess - you should be very satisfied with my daughter, right?"
Yi Qian lowered his eyes and smiled: "Of course... I am also honored to be favored by Xinxin and you..."
"Hahaha, good! Good..."
Next, they became like a family, talking and laughing, clinking glasses and toasting each other.
Huo Xiang looked carefully at the handsome man and beautiful woman, and they were indeed a perfect match.
Yes, Yi Qian never said that he liked men.
Maybe I made a mistake from the beginning!
Huo Xiang's last bit of expectation also disappeared.
In that case, then exit with dignity.
He returned the tablet, and just as the old woman rolled her eyes and was about to try to persuade him, she saw him pick up the bank card.
"How much money is in this?" he asked.
The old woman curled the corner of her lips, revealing a contemptuous yet expected smile:
"That's right! What's the saying? Oh... He who knows the times is a hero! You should also recognize the gap between you and our Xiaoqian. Even if you turn into a girl, our family will never accept you. The money in here is enough for you to have food and drink for the rest of your life!"
Huo Xiang glanced at the old woman, took out his phone and sent a delayed text message to Yi Qian in front of her: "I sincerely wish you and Miss Bai to be together forever and grow old together."
Then he deleted all of Yi Qian’s contact information.
Huo Xiang held the bank card in his hand, stood up, and said to the old woman in a calm tone: "You can rest assured. From now on, Yi Qian and I will never meet again. Even if we accidentally meet, we are strangers."
As for money, he has plenty of it.
But he had to accept this card.
This thing is the most suitable thing to end a relationship.
And who would complain about having too much money?
This way everyone can get by.
For wealthy families, they will feel more at ease if you take the money.
After saying that, Huo Xiang was about to leave, but he saw a tall figure carrying a chair and sitting in front of their table.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't leave in a hurry."
Huo Xiang looked up and saw that it was a man.
A man of outstanding height, impressive appearance and temperament.
