CH 55.3

"...Ah Ling, I heard something happened to the Chu family."

Early in the morning, Huo Ling came to the entrance of the hotel, and was just about to take Wen Jiayu away, but he saw that Wen Jiayu was awkward, and then he said these words the first time he opened his mouth.

Huo Ling was slightly taken aback, he nodded and said, "Indeed something happened to the Chu family. The Chu family is in a mess now. Because the house was bombed, they are all staying in a hotel. Have you had breakfast in the morning?"

"I haven't eaten, I'm not hungry, let's eat at noon."

Wen Jiayu said in a low voice, "That Chu Chen... Did he look for you? Will the Huo family lend money to the Chu family to help the Chu family tide over their difficulties?"

Huo Ling was startled, however he said nothing.

He just looked at Wen Jiayu.

After discovering that what Wen Jiayu said before was all the content in the quotations to identify whore, Huo Ling actually felt very uncomfortable.

Especially with the matter of Shi Haoyan as a foreshadow.

However he would rather believe that he was thinking too much about it.

So today Huo Ling decided not to think about anything else, and he wanted to take Wen Jiayu directly to their high school to view their past as miserable and their present as happy, to recall their beautiful school life in those years. However he didn't expect Wen Jiayu to come up with such a sentence.

[忆苦思甜 yì kǔ sī tián: to view one's past as miserable and one's present as happy (idiom); recall the sorrows of the past and savour the joys of the present]

Why did he mention this?

Huo Ling frowned.

Huo Ling kept silent, and Wen Jiayu assumed Huo Ling's acquiescence.

He was also a little unhappy.

Even if he didn't pay much attention to the Chu family, Wen Jiayu also knew that the Chu family's troubles this time were not small, and it wouldn't be easy to deal with tens of millions. Furthermore the Huo family's money had long been regarded as something in his pocket.

If Huo Ling helped Chu Chen, it  was equivalent to spending his money, how could he be happy?

Moreover, as long as Huo Ling really helped Chu Chen, it meant that Chu Chen's position in Huo Ling's heart couldn't be underestimated.

Wen Jiayu recalled Chu Chen's smile in his memory, and couldn't help but grasp his clothes tightly.

However the mask he had worn for so many years was not for nothing.

When he saw that the expression on Huo Ling's face was not good, Wen Jiayu had no choice but to guess what the man in front of him was thinking, and said according to his heart: "I think the Chu family is quite pitiful. No matter what, Chu Chen is also your friend, you can help them to express your loyalty to your friend, I support you. It's just... because I like you, so if you help them, I will definitely feel uncomfortable, wondering if you also like Chu Chen, he is so good-looking, and his family conditions are also good..."

Wen Jiayu lowered his head and said in low voice, "I'm very scared, afraid that you will like him."

It turned out that Wen Jiayu thought so.

It was actually Huo Ling's fault that the person he liked feel insecure.

Huo Ling's expression was complicated, and his expression softened a little, he said: "Don't worry, I will not help the Chu family, nor will I like Chu Chen. Let's not talk about this, let's go, I will take you to our high school for a stroll."

Wen Jiayu's eyes lit up: "Okay!"

Wen Jiayu felt comfortable all over.

When he thought of the collapse of the Chu family and the fact that Chu Chen's family financial situation in the future wouldn't even be as good as his well-to-do family, the smile on Wen Jiayu's face became even bigger.

After getting on the suspension car, Wen Jiayu's bracelet rang. He opened it and saw that it was a message from the man he knew on the spaceship before. Wen Jiayu immediately showed a gentle smile.

Huo Ling asked calmly, "Who? Your friend?"

"Um."

Wen Jiayu generously showed the conversation between the two of them to Huo Ling, and said in a flat tone, "I met him on the spaceship before. At that time, there happened to be a man on the spaceship who had mental riot. Because the incident happened suddenly, many people were injured. I brought a medicine to relieve mental riot with me, so I wanted to try it. However the mental storm was very strong at the time, and I had to protect the medicine. Somewhat I had more work than I could deal with. It was this person who helped me break the protective screen and let me in. Later, we got to know each other because of the medicine thing. "

Huo Ling nodded, and suddenly remembered what Chu Chen asked him before.

He asked casually, "Did you make this medicine, or did your mentor make it?"

Wen Jiayu's eyes widened.

Huo Ling...

How could he ask such a question?

He thought that the medicine was not made by his mentor?

Wen Jiayu's heart was touched.

He took Huo Ling's hand, and said with moist eyes: "Ah Ling, I didn't expect you to ask such a question. This medicine is indeed made by me, but the final credit was taken away by my mentor. Originally, since your birthday almost here, I don't want to mention this matter, I didn't expect you... Sure enough, I know you love me the most."

After finishing speaking, Wen Jiayu threw himself into Huo Ling's embrace.

Huo Ling raised his hands high, somewhat he felt uncomfortable.

Because it wasn't him who thought about it, it was Chu Chen.

As for whether he loved or not...

Huo Ling refused to think about it any further.

The author has something to say: Chu Chen: Damn, you say that Li Ran is miserable, that Li Fen is miserable, that Huo Ling is miserable, but who can be as miserable as me?
