Huo Buyu smiled at her. “When did you get back?”
“Not long ago.” Jiang Yun’s smile was elegant as she rested her chin on her hand, looking rather cute. “Huo Buyu, I heard that you’re dating again?” The reason why she said “again” was because Huo Buyu had been with Qin Jiao before.
“Ummm.” Huo Buyu nodded.
Jiang Yun smiled and teased, “I thought that after what happened to Qin Jiao, you wouldn’t dare to fall in love again.” Back then, the news that Qin Jiao had almost caused Huo Buyu’s death had spread like wildfire in the industry. Everyone knew about it, hence many people were in awe of Qin Jiao. After what had happened, she had the cheek to pester Huo Buyu shamelessly. Which man would want to be with her?
Huo Buyu seemed indifferent. “There’s no need to come to that. That matter wasn’t entirely Qin Jiao’s fault. I didn’t blame her.” This was the truth. Huo Buyu didn’t blame Qin Jiao. The car accident wasn’t Qin Jiao’s fault either. That man loved Qin Jiao too much, so he placed all his resentment on Huo Buyu and planned the car accident. This matter wasn’t instigated by Qin Jiao, nor did Qin Jiao play a part in it. The only thing Qin Jiao had done wrong was probably because she felt that Huo Buyu didn’t love her, so she tried to provoke him. The man she chose to use for this purpose happened to have an extreme personality. Qin Jiao used him to test Huo Buyu, giving him the false impression that he had a chance with her. Hence, he became even more resentful of Huo Buyu.
Jiang Yun looked at Huo Buyu. “You’re very magnanimous. But this is you. I heard that you have a good relationship with your new girlfriend. I would love to meet her.”
At the mention of Ye Yao, Huo Buyu’s expression softened immediately. He said, “There will be opportunities.”
Jiang Yun looked intently at Huo Buyu, studying his every little expression. Hence, when she saw the softening of his expression, her eyes flickered.
Huo Buyu was a gentleman and wouldn’t keep staring at the woman’s face, so he didn’t see how Jiang Yun’s expression had clouded over.
The woman smiled and said, “Huo Buyu, from what I’m seeing, you seem to like your current girlfriend very much. I feel that you’re in a different state of mind than when you were with Qin Jiao. I’m suddenly even more curious about what kind of woman your girlfriend is.”
A smile appeared on Huo Buyu’s face. “She’s very adorable.” Huo Buyu felt that Ye Yao was the cutest when exercising her jinxing ability. The radiance on her face was dazzling, making it difficult for one to take one’s eyes off her. Of course, even if he liked her, he had to control himself. Ye Yao’s personality was too smooth so he couldn’t dote on her too much. Hence, he was always restrained in her presence and would stop her from doing certain things. Ultimately, he just wanted to protect her.
The gentleness in Huo Buyu’s expression stabbed at Jiang Yun’s heart. Her pupils suddenly constricted, but she quickly calmed down. She wouldn’t let anyone see through her hypocrisy. She and Huo Buyu had grown up together. She was the sort of girl who would put up a cool and aloof front like a goddess. Her persona was bright and sacred, and Huo Buyu was a very good person. He was very restrained, mature, and steady. Jiang Yun felt that Huo Buyu and her were a match made in heaven.
When she found out that Huo Buyu and Qin Jiao were together, Jiang Yun had also treated Huo Buyu to a meal. After that meal, Jiang Yun knew that Huo Buyu and Qin Jiao wouldn’t be together for long. Because Huo Buyu didn’t care about Qin Jiao at all, there was nothing she needed to do. However, things were different now. Whenever Huo Buyu talked about his girlfriend, there was an unbelievable tenderness in his eyes. It was obvious that he really liked her.
Jiang Yun kept reminding herself to calm down. She smiled elegantly at Huo Buyu. “I’m suddenly curious if your girlfriend has any special abilities. Otherwise, how could she attract you?”
Boom! Suddenly, the private room trembled. Jiang Yun was shocked. At the same time, her mind worked at the speed of lightning and she fell into Huo Buyu’s arms subconsciously.
When the wall suddenly collapsed, everyone’s first reaction was to assume it was an earthquake. Huo Buyu was no exception. Hence, he grabbed Jiang Yun’s hand to lead her away. However, at this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly came from beside him. “Aiya, Gao Qiao, is there an earthquake? I’m terrified..
Hurry up and carry me away from here!”
