Sorrowful expressions gradually appeared on Lisa's face. That was her last struggle and pain. She slowly raised her head and looked at his incredibly handsome but cold and ruthless face. Her five months of love had ended just like that, and she hadn't even had time to prepare for it, hadn't even been ready to show him her most perfect side, and so it had ended.
"Do you love her? "Do you really love her?" Lisa asked slowly.
"What?" An Bowen knew that she was worth Huo Lianqing. He also knew a little about what happened that day outside the company's elevator.
"Huo Lianqing, do you really love her? Can you tell me? This way I can leave a little more at ease. " Lisa said pitifully.
"You've already lost your qualifications. What's the use of a loser knowing so much?" An Bowen snorted.
This man was indeed vicious, he didn't even give her a little bit of his pride. Lisa gave a decadent smile, like a flower that was about to bloom.
An Bowen turned around and walked out. He didn't even spare a glance at him, nor did he leave behind the slightest bit of pity or nostalgia. The moment he turned around, Lisa's tears dripped onto the back of her hand. I'll make you regret this! Huo Lianqing, I will definitely snatch back what belongs to me!
It was already past ten when he returned home. He had a few drinks outside and smelled strongly of alcohol. Huo Lianqing was still watching TV on the sofa in the hall. He didn't know whether it was because he couldn't sleep or because he had to wait for his return. His originally frustrated heart calmed down when he saw her.
"You're back. Have you eaten? I'll go and prepare some food for you. " As she spoke, Huo Lianqing stood up from the sofa. She was wearing a yellow tracksuit, with her hair tied up at the back and her hair hanging loose at the back of her neck.
"No need, I'm not eating anymore. Come sit with me for a while." An Bowen's eyes were a little blurry. She reached out her hand to grab Huo Lianqing's hand, causing Huo Lianqing to lose her balance and fall onto the sofa.
"I'll give it to you …" Before she could finish, her lips were covered by the scent of alcohol from An Bowen. He violently sucked on her lips. Only when Huo Lianqing felt she couldn't breathe anymore did Amber let her go.
"I'm sorry, I'm drunk." An Bowen muttered as he gently caressed her red and swollen lips. He hugged her with infinite pity and whispered into her ear.
"Do you know why I like you?" He was really drunk. At this moment, he was like a helpless child that was hugging her and talking to her.
"Why?" Huo Lianqing asked with her eyes wide open.
"Because you and I have the same place, your eyes are the same as mine, you have many stories behind you, I want to know the stories behind you." He leaned his head against the sofa and let out a long breath.
Huo Lianqing was stunned. What happened to him today? Why are you saying all these to me? Could it be that he has something to do with that Lisa?
"What are you thinking?" When he was drunk, Umbo was even more domineering. He directly used his hand to lift Huo Lianqing's face, forcing her to look straight into his eyes.
"No, aren't you a little upset about what happened during the day? I watched TV too. " Huo Lianqing felt that it would be better to tell him the truth at this time. She was indeed very smart.
"You know about it too? "I am a bit annoyed, but it was actually caused by a woman!" An Bowen furrowed his brows slightly as he spoke.
"I'll make you something to eat, and then I'll drink some tea. It'll make you feel better. Do you want it? I'll go and get it now. " As Huo Lianqing spoke, she stood up and took away the hand that Umbo had placed on her waist. His hand was warm and warm. His hands used to be cold and cold, but now they were warm.
Huo Lianqing smiled at him as he looked at her intoxicatingly with eyes filled with warmth and love.
"Just wait a moment. I'll finish it in a moment." Huo Lianqing left the main hall and walked towards the kitchen. When she heard the sound of Umbo's voice, she also came out of her room. Her eyes were drowsy, and she was wearing a blue dress.
"Miss Huo, is mister back?"
"Okay, I'll go make him some food." Huo Lianqing nodded as she walked.
Madam Wang quickly ran over to grab the apron in Huo Lianqing's hands and pushed her out of the kitchen.
"Aiya! Let me do it, Miss Huo. How can you go into the kitchen? Just tell us to do these things. " Huo Lianqing smiled indifferently and took the apron from Aunt Wang's hands.
"It doesn't matter, since I can't sleep anyway, let me do it. You should hurry up and rest. Aren't you going to get up early tomorrow? " Huo Lianqing had already put on her apron as she spoke and walked into the kitchen. Aunt Wang was stunned for a moment before she shook her head helplessly and left. When he reached the lobby, he saw Obo Wen reclining on the sofa with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep. After a moment of hesitation, he decided not to go over and went back to his room.
Huo Lianqing found some ingredients in the fridge and made two delicious dishes. Pepper shredded meat, mustard shredded bamboo shoots, a plate of dried fried peanuts, a plate of celery lilies. After boiling the chicken meat porridge with red dates, he also found some honey to make a cup of honey water for him. He carried these things into the main hall and placed a few dishes on the table. It seemed as if he had fallen asleep. Only after hearing a slight noise did he open his eyes.
"Sleeping? Drink some honey water first and break the bar. " Huo Lianqing lifted up her cup and handed it over to An Bowen. He was stunned as he looked at the dishes and porridge in front of him. A strange feeling began to churn in his heart.
"You did all this?" An Bowen asked Huo Lianqing in disbelief.
"Try it and see if it tastes good." As Huo Lianqing spoke, she picked up a mouthful of the dish and placed it next to Ambovin's mouth. Ambovin faintly smiled and opened his mouth to eat the dish. Then, he slowly chewed on it. Huo Lianqing tilted her head and looked at him eagerly, as if she was a child waiting for candy.
"How is it? "Is it good to eat?"
"Delicious." There was a firm tone in his voice, and a strange emotion. Perhaps he was moved, or perhaps it was something else.
"You have some too. Have you eaten dinner?" An Bowen pulled Huo Lianqing to sit beside him.
"I'm not eating, I ate a lot tonight and haven't digested it yet."
An Bowen looked at the bowl of red date porridge with a lifeless look in his eyes for half a minute, as if he was lost in thought or reminiscence. He picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth, slowly savoring the taste. There was indeed a bit of it. An Bowen nodded, a playful smile on his face.
"Your congee is delicious."
Huo Lianqing didn't understand why Amber would suddenly say that her congee tasted so good. She took the spoon in her hand and took a sip.
"Yes, it does taste good." After An Bowen had finished his meal, Huo Lianqing cut up some more fruit. The two chatted until the color of the fish's belly began to appear in the east before they both went back to their respective rooms to sleep. Huo Lianqing thought that he would either go straight to his room to drink or carry her to his room. But he didn't. He took Huo Lianqing back to his room, turned on the floor lamp, and watched as she covered herself with the blanket before leaving. He seemed to pity himself infinitely, even kissed her good night softly, as if he were about to break her.
Restaurant the next morning
To his surprise, An Bowen didn't read the newspaper today. Huo Lianqing was eating her breakfast and reading the newspaper at the same time. The headline of the newspaper read: "When the famous model Lisa was accused of various crimes yesterday, she had already informed the acting industry to settle abroad, and would never return home again to develop."
Huo Lianqing finally understood why Obo Wen didn't read the newspapers. It turned out that the matter with Lisa had been resolved so quickly. Huo Ruqing picked up her teacup and took a sip. The tip of her tongue had turned numb from the heat and she almost vomited. An Bowen expressionlessly pushed a glass of water over to him.
Huo Lianqing took a sip, and suddenly, she heard voices coming from outside.
"What is your husband doing? What time is it that you're still sleeping? Director An's name is Director An, what's his name? " It was actually Zhou Junchi's voice. An Bowen creased his eyebrows and stood up.
"Yo!" We're having breakfast. " Zhou Chengchi walked into the restaurant with a fresh spring breeze and swept his gaze over Huo Lianqing. His expression made it seem as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
"You! Why is she here? " Zhou Chengchi pointed at Huo Lianqing and asked.
