Chapter 1131 Falling into Bo Qing's Trap
Chapter 1131 Falling into Bo Qing's Trap
Bo Qing saw through his thoughts at a glance. He didn't need to say who he wanted to follow or who he wanted to help.
A slight smile played on his lips as he said, "Are you sure you want to come with me? Let me make this clear first, Jiang Manman isn't coming with us."
Huo Yanchen: "..."
Is this some kind of trick I'm using on him?
Huo Yanchen asked, "Why doesn't she go? Are you isolating her?"
Bo Qing said, "I heard he wasn't feeling well, but I don't know the specifics."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yanchen immediately stood up.
Jiang Manman has gone back to her room. Only Shen Yuan, Xiao Ning, and Mo Shi are in the room there.
Huo Yanchen could only ask Shen Yuan, "I heard Jiang Manman is sick?"
Shen Yuan had no idea where Huo Yanchen had heard this from; how could she not know?
Shen Yuan looked at Bo Qing over there. Bo Qing met Shen Yuan's gaze and smiled faintly. It was obvious that this was Bo Qing's doing.
Shen Yuan immediately understood that Bo Qing was adding fuel to the fire. When Jiang Manman was here, Huo Yanchen wasn't this nervous, but as soon as he heard that Jiang Manman was sick, he became so anxious.
Shen Yuan nodded: "It seems like she's not feeling well. I'm not sure, but she said she's fine. Why don't you go and check on her?"
Huo Yanchen frowned and walked to Jiang Manman's room, knocking on the door.
Jiang Manman didn't know who was outside, she just called out, "Come in."
Jiang Manman was about to go out and have fun, and she was planning to touch up her makeup so she could look beautiful before going out.
She didn't expect that the person who came in would be Huo Yanchen. His tall figure walked in, and every step he took was so steady. The suit looked so good on him!
Jiang Manman blinked her eyelashes: "Huo Yanchen?"
Is something wrong with him?
Huo Yanchen strode in, placed his hand on Jiang Manman's forehead, and Jiang Manman's mind went blank for a moment, not knowing what was wrong.
Jiang Manman remained motionless, her eyes still able to see the hand resting on her forehead. The hand was large and the fingers were long and slender; it was a beautiful hand.
Huo Yanchen didn't feel that Jiang Manman's forehead was burning hot, so she probably didn't have a fever.
Huo Yanchen frowned and asked, "Are you feeling unwell? Have you taken any medicine?"
This question completely baffled Jiang Manman: "Huh? I don't feel unwell anywhere?"
"Didn't Bo Qing say you were sick?"
After asking the question, Huo Yanchen realized that he might have been tricked by Bo Qing.
Jiang Manman wasn't sick at all, but Bo Qing said she wasn't feeling well. Was he deliberately testing his reaction?
We've been tricked!
"No, I'm fine."
Even if Jiang Manman racked her brains, she couldn't figure out what was wrong with her; she had absolutely no problem.
Moreover, she barely spoke to Bo Qing, so how did her brother-in-law know she was sick?
"It's good that you're alright. Why didn't you go out and play with them?" Huo Yanchen asked again.
Jiang Manman asked in confusion, "I didn't mean I wouldn't go with them. I'm putting on makeup right now. Once I'm done and all tidied up, I'll go with them. Huo Yanchen, are you coming?"
Jiang Manman looked at Huo Yanchen with expectant eyes.
Huo Yanchen gritted his teeth, thinking, "That damned Bo Qing, he really tricked me."
They said Jiang Manman was sick and that she wasn't going, but it was all a lie!
"I'm not going," Huo Yanchen said.
"Huh? Why?" Jiang Manman grabbed Huo Yanchen's hand anxiously, looking at him with sincere eyes. She really wanted Huo Yanchen to go.
"Go ahead, go ahead, it's a lot of fun, and it'll be lively with so many of us. Look, Sister Yuanyuan is a family, and Sister Ningning is a family too. I'm all alone, how embarrassing is that? Will you be embarrassed with me? Okay, Huo Yanchen? Uncle Huo, Brother Huo!"
When Jiang Manman was being coquettish, she kept calling Huo Yanchen "uncle" and "brother," almost making Huo Yanchen lose his bearings.
She usually refuses to call him "uncle," but she insists on using that title at this particular moment.
However, Huo Yanchen still kept a straight face: "I'm not going, I don't have time."
"You're free now, and you don't seem to have anything to do. You should rest like your brother-in-law. Don't always treat yourself like a machine. Does the world stop turning without you? Why don't you come and have some fun with us? I promise I won't bother you. I'll take care of you. How about it?"
Jiang Manman continued, saying that she wanted Huo Yanchen to go with her.
Firstly, it allows me to see Huo Yanchen more often; secondly, it is indeed a way to relax, as Huo Yanchen's constant work is not ideal and he needs to unwind.
Huo Yanchen's mental defenses have completely collapsed, but his expression is still quite intimidating.
"Don't go!"
They acted as if they wouldn't go if they said they didn't want to.
Jiang Manman said, "If you're not going, then I won't go either. It would be so boring if I were all alone. Although I really, really want to go, I've been looking forward to it for so long. I heard it's a lot of fun there. But I missed this opportunity, and I don't know when I'll have another chance. It's a bit of a pity, but if I can be with you, it's okay if I don't go."
Jiang Manman's big eyes were very bright and lively. Although she said that, she deliberately said that she really wanted to go, hoping that Huo Yanchen would soften his heart and go with her!
Huo Yanchen was originally hard-hearted, but in front of Jiang Manman, his hard heart couldn't harden.
Seeing Jiang Manman like this, Huo Yanchen's lips moved, and he wanted to agree immediately, but he restrained himself.
"You absolutely have to follow me? What kind of little follower are you?"
“Since you’re not coming with me, I have no choice but to go with you,” Jiang Manman said seriously.
Huo Yanchen straightened up, preparing to leave: "You pack first, I'll think about it."
Jiang Manman's voice came from behind him: "Do you still need to think about it? I've decided for you, go!"
Huo Yanchen's lips curled into a smile, but Jiang Manman didn't see it.
After leaving, Bo Qing remained in the same spot, glancing at Huo Yanchen as he came out, but he showed no expression.
Huo Yanchen went over to confront Bo Qing: "Didn't you tell me that Jiang Manyan wasn't feeling well? Didn't you tell me she wasn't going?"
Bo Qing said calmly, "Why are you so agitated about Jiang Manman's affairs? She's not your person."
"I..." Huo Yanchen was speechless.
"At least we're in a foreign country, and her father and I are like brothers. He asked me to take care of her," Huo Yanchen said, making up an excuse.
“They asked you to take care of them, not to seduce their daughter. If her father knew what you did, would he still let his daughter hang out with you? He would whip you.”
Huo Yanchen wanted another cigarette. He said, "I didn't intend to abduct her, it's just..."
Sometimes, it seems like I can't control it.
