After flirting with me wrongly, my scumbag uncle pinched my waist and pampered me fiercely

Chapter 1153 Argument

"I've already eaten, I'm not hungry."

"Have you eaten? Would you like to eat some more?" Jiang Manman asked tentatively.

"No."

"Okay then, where are you going now? Are you going back? Do you want me to take you?" Jiang Manman asked.

Most of the time, it's the man who takes the woman home, but with Jiang Manman, it's become her taking Huo Yanchen home.

Such sincerity was not something Huo Yanchen's heart could not have failed to feel.

Unfortunately, he had promised Jiang Manman's father that he would never be with Jiang Manman.

"No need, you go and do your own thing."

"It's unlikely for me, but what about you? What have you been busy with lately? You seem to have a lot on your mind, but also nothing much. Huo Yanchen, tell me about it. Can we sit down and have a chat?"

"There's nothing to talk about. I'll have the driver take you home."

"And what about you? Where are you going?" Jiang Manman asked.

"I have my own things to do."

"What's up? I happen to be free, so why don't I come with you? Maybe I can be of some help. Even if I can't help, I definitely won't hold you back, okay?" Jiang Manyan grabbed Huo Yanchen's hand, looking eager to go.

Seeing that Huo Yanchen didn't speak, she shook his arm: "Please, Huo Yanchen, Uncle Huo? Brother Huo?"

Huo Yanchen frowned, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Huo Yanchen said, "Since you're going, then come along."

"Okay!" Jiang Manman was happy. She was already very pleased that Huo Yanchen was willing to let her come along.

Jiang Manman got into Huo Yanchen's car. She didn't know where Huo Yanchen was going, but she just sat quietly next to him.

However, the silence lasted only two seconds before she started talking.

"Huo Yanchen, where are we going?"

"I'll sell you," Huo Yanchen said.

"Really? How much can I sell it for?" Jiang Manman wasn't worried at all; instead, she was concerned about her own worth.

She's not a child anymore, how could she possibly believe such things?

"Could you share some with me?"

"Can I sell you too? That way we'll have company!"

Jiang Manman's energetic tone left Huo Yanchen at a loss, unsure of how to respond.

"Aren't you afraid that one day I'll get tired of you and actually sell you off?" Huo Yanchen asked.

In front of Huo Yanchen, the person who talks the most is Jiang Manman.

Huo Yanchen had a bad reputation. Those who offended him, or those he disliked but who did not change their ways after being reminded several times, usually did not have a good ending with Huo Yanchen.

But Jiang Manman was an exception.

Jiang Manman herself may not have realized it, but those who know Huo Yanchen know that anyone who dares to act like this in front of Huo Yanchen will not have a good ending.

It's obvious to anyone with eyes that Huo Yanchen is indulging Jiang Manman, but he's blinded by his own involvement.

"Don't worry, I have legs now. I can give you a chance to sell me, but I can't guarantee there will be a second chance."

Jiang Manman is still very energetic and can keep up with Huo Yanchen.

But Jiang Manman didn't know if one day she would feel tired and not want to pursue him anymore. Perhaps at that time, she would no longer follow Huo Yanchen.

She knew that people should have their own lives and that the world shouldn't revolve around just one person.

Right now, all she wants to do is stay with Huo Yanchen.

She knew that if she didn't take the initiative, there would be no future for her and Huo Yanchen.

But... who knows, maybe I'll win her over someday!

"I don't need any opportunities. There has never been any opportunity between us."

After saying that, Huo Yanchen stopped looking at Jiang Manman and looked out the car window.

Outside the window, cars and pedestrians hurried along, each with a different expression; some were laughing heartily, while others looked gloomy.

It seems that everyone has their own story, but it's impossible to truly understand someone else's story.

"Huo Yanchen, you're always like this," Jiang Manyan said. "What's wrong with giving you a chance? It's not like I'm going to kill you. If it's not right, we can break up. I won't do anything to you. But what I dislike most is that you think it's not going to work before we've even started. How do you know I'm not right?"

"Anyway, you're single and I'm single, why don't we give it a try? How will you know there's no result if you don't try? Besides, you like gambling so much, but you won't gamble with me. I really can't figure you out. I don't know what you're worried about."

Jiang Manman really wanted to open Huo Yanchen's head to see what he was thinking, or what he was considering.

Isn't being young supposed to be impulsive? There's no rule that says you can't break up once you're together.

It might not be suitable, but what if it is?

Why can't we just give it a try instead of letting ourselves live a life full of regrets?

She felt that Huo Yanchen was being very awkward, even more so than her.

"I'm not worried about anything. I don't like you, so why should I start a relationship with you?" Huo Yanchen said, but his gaze remained fixed on the window.

His tone was so nonchalant, but he didn't dare look Jiang Manman in the eye when he said these words.

The words "I don't like you" struck Jiang Manman's heart like a heavy hammer.

Even though she knew Huo Yanchen had no feelings for her, Jiang Manman still felt heartache when she heard him say those things.

It seems like she can't even maintain her smile anymore; she simply can't smile.

"But... how do you know you don't like it if you haven't even tried it?"

"Do you even need to try this kind of thing? That Liang Chen guy, doesn't he like you too? Why don't you go and try it with him? Or you can go and try it with him and stop bothering me."

Huo Yanchen's tone was cold and ruthless. Jiang Manman shouted, "Stop!"

"Stop saying that, Huo Yanchen. I don't want to argue with you."

Jiang Manman was afraid that if she continued talking, she would really start arguing with Huo Yanchen.

If Huo Yanchen says something hurtful again, she'll be the one who suffers in the end.

Feelings are not something that can be reasoned about like that. She really didn't have those feelings for Liang Chen, and she didn't even have much contact with him, always keeping her distance.

But she could feel the magnetic field between her and Huo Yanchen. She clearly felt that Huo Yanchen was not indifferent to her, otherwise why would he have been so good to her when they were abroad?

As they strolled hand in hand down the street, she genuinely wondered if, for even a fleeting second, Huo Yanchen might have also fallen for her.

But she didn't know how things had turned out this way.

The atmosphere in the car became extremely awkward after that, and neither of them said another word.

The car stopped in front of the clubhouse that Huo Yanchen frequented.
