Huo You handed the milk tea over and said warmly, “Bi Ying, you sneezed just now. Did you catch a cold? Have a cup of milk tea to warm up your body.”

Bi Ying reached out to block Huo You’s arm and said coldly, “I’m sorry, I won’t accept food from strangers.”

Huo You felt anger and frustration rising in her heart. If she didn’t know that Bi Ying was a genius who would achieve great things in the future and bring her great benefits, she wouldn’t have come to him with his bad temper!

For the sake of long-term benefits, Huo You suppressed her anger and maintained her perfect smile.

She deliberately softened her voice. “Bi Ying, we grew up in the same place, so how are we strangers? Compared to Huo Tian, I have more things in common with you. I think we can definitely be friends…”

“You want to be my friend?” Bi Ying looked at Huo You strangely.

Huo You quickly nodded. “That’s right, Bi Ying. I’ll definitely treat you well and not let you live the life you used to lead…”

Bi Ying’s lips curled up into a sarcastic smile. “You want to be my friend? Sure. Let me ask you, do you know about programming? Do you know about machinery? Do you know about biotechnology…”

Sensing the awkwardness on Huo You’s face, Bi Ying sneered and said, “You don’t know anything. How dare you shamelessly say that you want to be my friend? Where do you get your confidence from?”

Huo You’s face flushed red, but she couldn’t take it lying down. She said unhappily, “Bi Ying, I know you’re a genius, but doesn’t making friends depend on whether people’s personalities are compatible? If we were to go by your criteria, there is probably no one in this world who can be your friend, right?”

“No, you’re wrong. I’ve already found a friend who shares the same interests as me.” Bi Ying stared into Huo You’s eyes and said coldly, “Huo You, I already knew about you before you left the Ding Family. You’re a person who doesn’t do anything unless it benefits you. In the past, you’ve never paid any heed to the young cripple by the roadside who was digging through trash cans by the roadside. Now, you think that I’m useful and you want to hoodwink me with a few cups of milk tea and a few pieces of bread? Do you think I’m a stray dog who’d follow you around happily just because you gave me something to eat?”

Huo You’s face flushed red. She did think that Bi Ying, who had been living in misery, wouldn’t reject her offer to get close to him if she were to take the initiative to approach him and that she would be able to win his favor with just a little kindness. However, Huo You didn’t want him to let him voice out her thoughts so bluntly.

She explained hesitantly, “I’m not, I didn’t…”

Bi Ying didn’t want to waste his breath on her. “Although I don’t know why you got close to me, I can tell you outright that you won’t be able to get anything you want from me. You’re on your own.”

With that, Bi Ying mercilessly turned around and left, leaving Huo You behind.

Although Bi Ying didn’t say anything, Huo You knew who the friend he was referring to was.

Other than Huo Tian… Huo You thought angrily that other than Huo You, no one else would go against her in everything!

Huo You walked past a trash can and threw the milk tea in angrily.

In her raging anger, her chest heaved up and down. Huo You said harshly, “Huo Tian, one day, I’ll take revenge on you for all the humiliation I suffered today!”

Huo Tian let out a loud sneeze and sniffed without a care. She then continued to tell Ding Rong about the things that she had encountered at work.

Ding Rong could not understand the profound jargons Huo Tian was saying, but she still listened with great interest.

The Ding Family today was still ordinary, happy, and harmonious.

Unlike Huo Tian who was immersed in the warm and harmonious family atmosphere, the atmosphere on Si Huan’s side could be said to be confrontational.

He sat in the ICU ward and allowed He Yu to glare at him with hatred from the bed..
