Zhong Yuhuan clasped the door handle.

Huo Chengming caught a glimpse of her movement and smiled. “I locked the doors.”

Zhong Yuhuan: “!!!”

What is this?

Did he suddenly go crazy?

But Huo Chengming didn’t continue his previous words, not voicing his thoughts. Instead, he asked, “What did that director Li say to you? It should be all praises and nice words, because that’s the only way he’d have a chance to help Li Jinyuan coax you.”

Huo Chengming stepped on the gas again. He kept his eyes to the front and calmly drove while saying, “If I brought you to my former relatives, they would probably only say bad things, asking for money from you or hoping that you could plead for them, forcing me to tell them off.”

Plead?

Zhong Yuhuan keenly caught this word.

Did Huo Chengming do something to them?

Zhong Yuhuan didn’t feel suprised.

In the original story, Huo Chengming’s nature was ‘an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.’

Before, Huo Chengming told her that when his parents died, his former relatives immediately split the compensation and threw him into the orphanage. No matter what their outcome was, it was well-deserved based on their actions.

So Zhong Yuhuan lightly laughed. “Mhm, that’s a shame. If I really did meet them someday, I wouldn’t plead for them.”

Huo Chengming’s expression eased a bit and asked, “Why?”

Zhong Yuhuan smiled. “What reason could there be? Of course, it’s because we’re close to each other, unlike me and them.”

A faint smile appeared on Huo Chengming’s face. After a traffic light, he suddenly turned into an alley.

This alley was narrow and quite deserted. Cars normally wouldn’t go in because it was hard to get out.

The smile on Zhong Yuhuan’s face faded. “… Why are we here?”

Huo Chengming stepped on the brakes again.

“Huanhuan, Li Jinyuan still has a home waiting for him.” Huo Chengming turned, staring closely at Zhong Yuhuan. “I do not. I only have you. If one day you say that you don’t need me, then I won’t have anywhere else to go. I’d become the Huo Chengming who was in the orphanage waiting to be adopted again.”

Zhong Yuhuan anxiously said, “How could you think that? How could I not need you?”

“You will.” He squeezed the steering wheel, the green veins on his neck slightly bulging. He seemed to be using that action to forcibly suppress his feelings.

“After Wen Yongchen, there will definitely be another seemingly suitable person appearing in front of you. And another and another… There will always be someone who will date you and in the end, establish a family with you…”

Huo Chengming wasn’t wrong. Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t even refute.

Huo Chengming sneered. “But why? Why do I need to give you up to an unknown man in the future?”

“Even if I have a boyfriend in the future, or even marry, the position of you and Li Jinyuan will never change. We’ve grown up together and you guys are my family…”

Zhong Yuhuan pursed her lips. “I’ve said this many times, you will also…”

“No.” Huo Chengming’s tone was especially firm this time. “Do you know what type of person I want?”

Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t answer.

Huo Chengming’s tone suddenly became lighter, as if he thought of some wonderful thing.

He said, “I want you.”

Zhong Yuhuan’s breathing suddenly halted, her mind instantly emptying.

He finally said it.

Her feeling wasn’t wrong.

What should she do?

“I only want you.” Huo Chengming accentuated his tone.

“I’ve always been afraid of scaring you…” Huo Chengming shut his eyes. “However, if I don’t say it, then someday, there will be someone who says it before me.”

At that time, it wouldn’t only be some director Li.

There will be more and more people taking Zhong Yuhuan away from him.

The meal that Li Yong invited Zhong Yuhuan to seemed to have triggered Huo Chengming’s sense of crisis all at once.

Huo Chengming looked at Zhong Yuhuan, quietly saying, “Huanhuan? Are you afraid after hearing this?”

Huo Chengming pressed the window lock button.

With a snap, the car windows were also locked.

Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t go out as long as Huo Chengming prevented her from leaving.

Zhong Yuhuan immediately stiffened and every cell in her body became tense.

“If I told you… a while back when you leaned on your bed and called me over, I really wanted to stay in the room, by your side. I didn’t just want to be the person who tucked you in after you fell asleep. I wanted much more. I wanted to sleep with you on the bed.”

“That day in the villa in Turkey when I opened the door and saw Wen Yongchen by your bedside and talking to you in that disgusting tone of his so close to you, I went crazy. I really wanted to kill him then. Not only did I want to kill him, I also wanted to knock you down on the bed, kiss you… and tell you everything I never dared to say using those types of actions.”

“A few days ago, during《Top Speed》, when you and Li Jinyuan were doing yoga together, your yoga clothes were soaked with sweat. At that time, I wanted to take off my clothes to wrap around you, then hide you in my arms as I bring you away from the cameras, to a place where only you and I can go. Where only I can peel off your clothes…”

“I realized that I couldn’t resist anymore.” Huo Chengming said in a hoarse voice, “I want to be with you. I want to be the first person you see every time you wake up.”

Huo Chengming held her gaze, not letting her look away at all. “If I told you these… If I told you all of my dirty and shameful thoughts, would you be afraid?”

Every word from Huo Chengming’s mouth merged together, forming a large fire that scorched Zhong Yuhuan from bottom to top.

Zhong Yuhuan was completely red, nervous, and hot.

Huo Chengming’s sudden frankness made her unable to do anything.

Zhong Yuhuan clasped the door handle.

Huo Chengming caught a glimpse of her movement and smiled. “I locked the doors.”

Zhong Yuhuan: “!!!”
