Chapter 431: Pigs Also Like to Eat
Chenxi gasped, not because she was surprised that Yi Han is Yi Pei’s real brother, as this news had been circulating in the industry for a while.She was surprised that Yi Pei was so quick-witted, immediately realizing that Yi Han’s beating was related to Xiao Jiuru...
Oh! She definitely didn’t want to get involved, since it wasn’t her who sent people to hit him, so she hurriedly slipped away.
"Yi, I don’t really get what you mean. I’m so sleepy! I’m leaving. Bye! See you at the launch ceremony!"
Yi Pei had been mixed up in the big melting pot of the entertainment circle for so long, having seen many types of women.
There’s a type of woman who smiles more enthusiastically when trying to cover something up...
Yi Pei didn’t expose her, just waved goodbye as if nothing was amiss, "Alright, see you!"
Once the dazzling Ferrari sped away, the two men looked at each other...
Their gazes were as sharp as ancient swords!
Yi Pei was the first to smile faintly, then turned around and left with one hand in his pocket.
Hmph! His little brother couldn’t have gotten beaten up for nothing.
As his elder brother, he must help him get justice...
Since he cared so much about that Chenxi, might as well...
Come to think of it, it’s rather amusing, making him experience an acting itch he hadn’t felt for a while, burning with passion suddenly.
At this moment, Xiao Jiuru also saw the word "danger" in Yi Pei’s eyes; if Xiao Xiao had someone like that hanging around, it would really not be a good thing.
He had to stop this!
He promptly pulled out his mobile phone from his suit pocket and dialed a number.
...
Xiao Jinghuai was originally planning to pursue Song Song, but something suddenly happened with Meilong, making it difficult to leave.
Yet he’s worried about Song Song’s situation in Hong Kong, so he voluntarily called Huo Junting, "Has she arrived yet?"
"Yeah, she just arrived not long ago, she’s in my office now, looking listless, with no energy. Did you really argue because of that scandal?"
"No." Xiao Jinghuai suddenly felt like laughing, "I didn’t expect you to be interested in my gossip news."
"Ha! You’re overthinking, I’m interested because of Song Song, she’s my sister, I can’t let her be bullied."
Huo Junting glanced at the girl who was already asleep on the sofa.
Xiao Jinghuai sighed faintly on the other side of the phone, "I argued with her about something else, regarding that scandal I’ve already explained to her, and she accepted it."
"I have some urgent matters to deal with here, once finished I’ll head over to Hong Kong to find her, please take care of her during this time."
Huo Junting didn’t like that phrase one bit, "Of course I’ll take good care of my sister, no need for you to bother, just like that, I’m hanging up."
After saying this, he directly hung up the phone, a strange anger simmering in his heart...
Sometimes he really couldn’t stand Xiao Jinghuai’s self-righteousness.
Huo Junting’s last sentence was loud enough to wake Song Song from her sleep, rubbing her eyes as she got up from the sofa, sleepily asking, "Bro, who were you talking to just now? Your tone was so harsh..."
"Oh, an idiot."
Huo Junting said without a pang of conscience.
"Oh." Song Song stretched lazily after getting up from the sofa, "Bro, you wouldn’t believe it, today was the most restful sleep I’ve had in a while."
"In Qingcheng City I was really..."
Song Song’s face turned red at the thought, "Ah, not talking about it anymore."
"Then, Bro, you carry on with your work, I’ll head home, have to prepare for class tomorrow! I’ve missed so many classes, I wonder if I can still catch up?"
Actually, she’s not very interested in finance; when the teacher lectures, she understands only partly, sometimes even dozing off during class, feeling completely out of place in that field.
But that little chubby Yuan Yumeng seems to have a knack for it...
Looks like it’s been a while since she contacted that little chubby, wonder how she’s doing abroad?
Just as Song Song pulled out her phone to call Yuan Yumeng, she unexpectedly saw a QQ message from her, "Song Song, I’m returning to the country tomorrow, we can go out and feast together! Wait for me!"
"Oh, and... come to the airport to meet me tomorrow, I’ve got gifts for you!"
"..."
Uh, wasn’t she supposed to be gone for two years? Why is she coming back in less than two months?
Seeing Song Song dazed there, Huo Junting asked, "What’s wrong?"
"Oh, it’s nothing, Yuan Yumeng says she’s coming back tomorrow, wants me to pick her up at the airport, but I remember I’m supposed to have a full schedule tomorrow with no time to go!"
Song Song deliberately looked at Huo Junting, a smile in her eyes, "Bro, you shouldn’t be that busy lately, right?"
"It’s alright."
"Then you can pick up Yumeng at the airport! You have a car and it’s more convenient; if I pick her up, I’d have to take the subway with her..."
Song Song knew this wasn’t a valid reason because Huo Junting would definitely say he could send a driver for her.
Huo Junting glanced at her, picked up the files on the table, and reviewed them seriously, "No problem, I can send the driver for you."
Song Song secretly rolled her eyes, she knew it would turn out like this.
"But I really don’t have time, I’ve already missed so many classes, you wouldn’t want me to miss more, right? Plus it takes a long time to catch up on the notes..."
Huo Junting frowned, waving his hand, "Then I’ll send a driver to pick her up from the airport, you can skip going, class is more important, those idle people can be ignored if possible."
"Bro, you don’t seem to like Yumeng much!" Song Song said with a grin.
Huo Junting glanced up at her, "Do I need to like her?"
His tone was really at its worst, even worse than when talking to that idiot earlier, at least then there was anger...
Having anger means he still cares.
But now, this tone was utterly indifferent, bluntly speaking, colder than a stranger.
Because of this, Song Song was really curious, what did Yumeng do to make this otherwise very gentlemanly man so repulsed...
"Bro, Yumeng is Yu Xi’s sister, which makes her your... sister-in-law, right?"
"Your attitude towards your sister-in-law seems not so great, after all, there’s a good chance of becoming family in the future."
"..."
Even Huo Junting didn’t know the answer to this question himself, though their first meeting didn’t go well, he’s never been the type to nitpick.
Besides, the other party was just a young girl, but his feelings towards her were inexplicable.
"What’s the silence about?"
Song Song was persistent in her questioning.
To make her drop this notion, Huo Junting quickly said: "Alright, I’ll go pick her up in person tomorrow, roughly what time?"
Song Song instantly beamed with joy, "Let me see! Oh, Yumeng says two in the afternoon, good timing, after picking her up we can get some afternoon tea."
"Yumeng loves to eat."
"..."
Huo Junting’s lips curled slightly, showing indifference, "Pigs also love to eat."
Song Song: "..."
