Chapter 1134 My mind is in turmoil
When Huo Yanchen walked up behind Jiang Manman, Jiang Manman was completely unprepared, her mind focused on the camera in her hand, and she didn't even notice that someone had walked up behind her.
"Jiang Manman," Huo Yanchen called out.
Jiang Manman then turned around, and the face in the photo overlapped with the face of the man behind her.
Jiang Manman was startled. She patted her chest and said, "Huo Yanchen? How come you walk so quietly? You scared me!"
"Everyone's gone, aren't you going back?" Huo Yanchen asked.
Jiang Manman said, "Everyone's gone. There weren't many people around to begin with. I saw it. Just now, Sister Yuanyuan was taken away by her brother-in-law. What happened?"
Jiang Manman didn't think anything of it, and even invited, "It's really comfortable and relaxing, do you want to come down and soak in it with me?"
"Sister Yuanyuan took a lot of photos of us, and I'm looking at them now. Do you want to come and see them too? I noticed you kept staring at me while we were taking pictures. Is there something on my face today?"
Huo Yanchen: "..."
Huo Yanchen himself was unaware that he had been looking at Jiang Manman the whole time. Perhaps it was an unconscious action, and neither he nor Jiang Manman would have known if there hadn't been photographic evidence.
“Hmm, there’s something on your face,” Huo Yanchen said.
"No way? Why didn't you remind me sooner? I've been wandering around all day. Were those people secretly laughing at me behind my back? So what's on my face?"
Jiang Manman touched her face, but it was too late. She had already washed her face and there was nothing to see.
"It's nothing, it's already fallen." Huo Yanchen made up a casual excuse.
Actually, Jiang Manman's face was completely bare. As for why people kept staring at her, it was probably because she was pretty.
Jiang Manman put down her camera, then grabbed Huo Yanchen's wrist, pulling him directly into the water.
Then Jiang Manman leaned over and pinched Huo Yanchen's face: "Serves you right for not telling me, for teasing me, you're so annoying!"
Although Jiang Manman was talking, she wouldn't do anything to that face, because she liked it very much.
Huo Yanchen's clothes were already soaked. He just looked at Jiang Manman, who was so close to him. Her face was covered in water droplets. He didn't know if it was because the temperature of the hot spring was too comfortable, but Jiang Manman's cheeks were red and her skin had turned pink.
She was so delicate; her face was so clean and clear, and her round eyes were so beautiful.
Huo Yanchen's heart skipped a beat, and he stood there dumbfounded as Jiang Manman played with his face.
Jiang Manman tormented him for a while, and seeing that Huo Yanchen didn't move, she felt that Huo Yanchen was acting very strangely.
This shouldn't be happening. Logically, Huo Yanchen should have already shaken off her hand and scolded her.
But now, Huo Yanchen just stared at her like that.
Could he be sick?
Jiang Manman placed her hand on Huo Yanchen's forehead and felt its burning heat.
"Huo Yanchen, why is your forehead so hot? Are you sick? Did you catch a cold today?" Jiang Manman immediately became anxious.
After all, Huo Yanchen gave her his own clothes to wear today, and the temperature here is quite low. What if Huo Yanchen catches a cold at this time?
"No." Huo Yanchen's breathing became erratic.
In fact, it wasn't just his forehead that was burning hot; his entire body was now feverish.
Jiang Manman seemed unaware that her current actions involved her entire body lying on top of him, so close and intimate.
It's impossible for a man not to react to such an action; feeling hot is just one of the most common reactions.
Jiang Manman simply doesn't know this, so she doesn't know it yet.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pulled you down. Go back now and rest. I'll go ask if there's any cold medicine." With that, Jiang Manman got out of the water.
The image of the water emerging from the water was right in front of Huo Yanchen, and his eyes narrowed and tightened.
Then he reached out, grabbed Jiang Manman's wrist, and pulled her back into the water.
"Ah!" Jiang Manman screamed as she was pulled back without any warning.
Then he looked at Huo Yanchen and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm not sick, and I don't have a cold, so I don't need to go." Huo Yanchen's voice was deep, and his gaze no longer fell on Jiang Manman.
His grip tightened, as if he were restraining something.
But then came Jiang Manman's aggrieved voice: "Could you be a little gentler? My wrist hurts."
Huo Yanchen then realized how much force he had used, and that he had gripped Jiang Manman's wrist until it was red.
Huo Yanchen let go of her hand. Jiang Manman sighed and then said, "Do you still want to soak? If so, we can soak together. If not, then you should go and rest."
Huo Yanchen didn't answer Jiang Manman's question, but looked at Jiang Manman's face and said, "I'm going back to China tomorrow."
"Huh?" A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Manman's face. "So soon? Aren't you going to stay here a little longer? Is there something going on at work, or..."
Or is it that Huo Yanchen doesn't want to play with them?
"It's a work-related matter," Huo Yanchen said indifferently.
Actually, he's fine.
His work abroad has indeed come to an end, but his company in China is also running smoothly, so he doesn't need to rush back.
He wanted to go back, and it was indeed because of Jiang Manman.
It wasn't that he didn't want to see Jiang Manman, but rather that Jiang Manman was constantly in front of him, making his heart flutter. He might not have realized it himself, but the look in his eyes in the photos was the best proof.
Perhaps if I stay away from Jiang Manman, I can calm down.
Therefore, returning to China is the best option.
He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, things would get out of control.
He was a normal man, and Jiang Manman's intentional or unintentional teasing was very difficult for Huo Yanchen to bear. His self-control was weakening every day. Just like now, he really wanted to pin Jiang Manman down, kiss her right there, and swallow her whole.
Let her do things she's never done before, paint her from a blank sheet of paper with other colors, let Jiang Manman know his crazy side, know that he is a man, that he has desires, that he is not so good.
Let her know about things between men and women, scare her to tears, and make her say no with red eyes.
But these were just thoughts in Huo Yanchen's mind. He had imagined them many times, but he didn't dare to do them.
Jiang Manman is really something; every time I try to scare her away, she comes back to me on her own.
But she knew nothing about it and was single-mindedly focused on pursuing him.
He didn't know what kind of love Jiang Manman fantasized about, but he probably couldn't give her the kind of touching and romantic feelings that young girls crave.
