Chapter 1798: 1798
“He was originally going to propose to you after the twins’ performance, and he even bought a ring… I bet he’s devastated right now . Even if you don’t like him, but over the last few years, he…”
Huo Mian interrupted Zhu Lingling before the latter could finish . “I get it . I’ll go find him right now, stay with Qin Chu and the twins . ”
Huo Mian was truly surprised to hear from Zhu Lingling that Su Yu was going to propose – no one mentioned it to her . No wonder she couldn’t see Su Yu anywhere; he was probably trying to recover from the emotional rollercoaster .
He prepared so long for this celebration and the proposal, but everything vaporized along with Qin Chu’s return .
The truth was, Huo Mian felt bad . She hated hurting him, and that was why she never gave him a chance or a slim hope over the last four years . But…
Huo Mian whispered into Qin Chu’s ear, “I’ll be right back, take care of the twins . ”
“Mhm . ” Qin Chu immediately understood what Huo Mian was going to go .
Tang Chuan was infuriated, so he stood up and left when he saw Qin Chu walk up to them . Wei Liao, however, was calm enough to chat with the others as he stayed beside Jiang Xiaowei .
Qin Chu’s demeanor was exactly the same as it used to be, with an added hint of sentiment . Perhaps the fact that he was a father now changed him…
Huo Mian, holding the hem of her sapphire-colored gown, walked out of the ballroom . Worried, Bella followed her . “President Huo, where are you going? I’ll go with you . ”
“Have you seen President Su?”
“Oh… I saw him walking back to the stern alone . ”
“You don’t have to follow me, I’ll be fine . Take care of the party, call me if anything happens . ”
Then, Huo Mian headed towards the stern of the ship .
Upon seeing Huo Mian leaving by herself, Huo Siqian turned around to follow her . However, before he could reach the door, An stopped him . “President Huo, please stay in your room . ”
“What do you mean? I’m an invited guest, don’t I have the freedom to come and go as I wish?” Huo Siqian sneered .
“Of course you do, but the stern of the ship is restricted to President Huo and President Su, no one else can go there . ”
“Oh… I see it’s where they flirt behind her husband’s back, isn’t it?” Huo Siqian spat viciously .
“What are you bullshitting about? Do you think the entire world is like you? If you defame President Su again, I’m going to make you pay for it . Don’t think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re the president of the Huo Corporation . Don’t you remember your knife wounds from last time?” An glared angrily at Huo Siqian .
An and Huo Siqian once engaged in direct combat because of Huo Mian . In the beginning, the latter didn’t care much about Su Yu’s little assistant . Mostly because he didn’t even lose to Su Yu when the two fought .
To Huo Siqian’s surprise, however, he almost died that time . If he didn’t run away in time, An would’ve punctured his heart or lung .
Since that incident, Huo Siqian became more careful . He didn’t even have a chance to kidnap Huo Mian and the twins .
“Good job, I’ll make you pay for what you said today,” Huo Siqian threatened .
“I’ll be waiting for you,” An replied with his jaw clenched .
After Su Yu went to the stern, An blocked the way and didn’t let anyone but Huo Mian through .
An had been by Huo Mian’s side for three whole years, and he knew she wasn’t one to burn her bridges . The only problem was that she really didn’t love Su Yu . An understood what Huo Mian was going through, but he also empathized with President Su’s love for her .
When Huo Mian saw Su Yu, he was sitting alone with something in his hand, staring out into the vast sea with a grim expression on his face . The sea winds had messed up his perfect hair…
“Su Yu…” she called out his name as she slowly walked up to him .
