Chapter 1538 - 1541: Not Just a Stranger You Can Forget When You Turn Away 22
Hua Hua glanced sideways: "You’re not going?"
"Why should I go? She wants to explain using me to stir up the incident; isn’t having a secretary and the media enough?"
Hua Hua let out a nonchalant hum: "Oh no, that flirtatious woman didn’t mean that. If you, the main person involved, don’t go, how can she explain?" Inside, she suddenly felt very pleased!
Bah, why should I care!
So hungry, today’s steak tastes pretty good.
"The explanation can be discussed with a lawyer. This kind of defamation dispute is always handled by a lawyer. I’m not a lawyer, I don’t understand it, so going or not doesn’t mean much." Ling Yin earnestly fetched an expensive bottle of red wine, poured him a glass, and added two ice cubes.
"Eat slowly, have some wine."
Hua Hua rested one hand on the back of the chair, held the red wine with the other hand, and delicately swirled it in the light, the aroma wafting through the air.
The two dined across from each other, eating steak and drinking red wine, the word "ambience" gradually taking shape in such an atmosphere.
Taking a small sip, Hua Hua put down the wine glass.
"You are such an ungentlemanly man, why must you be so ruthless with women?"
Ling Yin looked over with a bit of grievance, saying: "How can such matters be condoned? Once there’s a first time, there’ll be a second. If I’m gentlemanly to her, won’t others think I have an indiscreet private life? Obviously, I’m a man of integrity! Clearly, I’ve long... given my heart to someone."
Hua Hua rolled her eyes at him but said nothing, focusing on satisfying her stomach.
"Are you feeling better now?" Ling Yin observed his good appetite and said: "I was originally wronged."
"Don’t discuss such boring topics with me. That’s your private matter; whether wronged or not is none of my business, understand?" Hua Hua felt uneasy internally, and her tone subconsciously took on a fierce edge, as if trying to hide something in the past.
Ling Yin saw his determined effort to distance himself, almost finding him adorably funny.
Clearly jealous but stubbornly refusing to admit it.
Hua Hua raised her wine glass: "Come, this is our last supper. After this, let’s part on good terms tomorrow."
"What?" Ling Yin’s mood plummeted instantly: "You’re still leaving? Still angry?"
"I’ve told you, I’m not angry. How many times do I have to repeat it?" Suddenly in a good mood, Hua Hua found immense delight in seeing Ling Yin’s face change: "Your body, my task. Why would I stick around after completing the task?"
This was what Yan Feng had said originally, now returning the sentiment!
After eating and drinking their fill, Hua Hua stood up: "I’m full, thank you for the last supper."
Ling Yin: "..."
Hua Hua smiled, contentedly walked out the door, stood in the courtyard in the cold breeze, feeling completely refreshed. Someone followed him out, so he said: "You drive, I want to go to the beach and enjoy the breeze."
Ling Yin felt a little downhearted, driving silently and swiftly, with an unsmiling demeanor, the atmosphere a bit tense.
Hua Hua tended to her nails, secretly wondering: Is he giving me the cold shoulder?
Ling Yin, however, was troubled: How can I keep him here, without resorting to forceful measures?
Hua Hua turned her head outside: Is he showing me an attitude? We aren’t even in any sort of relationship, and I can’t come and go as I please?
Ling Yin noticed he seemed disinclined to interact with him, even turning his head towards the window, feeling more troubled: It must be because I haven’t completely resolved this Laura matter, so he’s still upset!
