My Youth Began With Him

“What would he get out of… me leaving you?” Huo Mian looked at him in surprise.

“That would depend on him. After all, we’re not him, and we don’t know what’s going on in that head of his. Then again… it’s only a guess. There’s no proof that points to him.”

“It just proves his intelligence. He never leaves loose ends untied,” Huo Mian said.

That’s why she and Qin Chu never liked him, even when they were young.

Qin Chu fell silent; he agreed with what Huo Mian said… they seemed to be on the same page.

“Honey… I suddenly thought of something.” Huo Mian turned around and moved up closer to Qin Chu, excitement gleaming in her eyes.

“Tell me.”

“I think we should keep pretending that we’re in a fight… play along with the enemy’s plan and see how far he will go. He already set up the chess pieces, so why not play along?”

“No, it’s too dangerous… I don’t want to put you at a disadvantage.” Qin Chu’s grip around Huo Mian’s hand tightened as if he was afraid that he would suddenly lose her.

“I won’t be… he had so many opportunities to get to me. He wouldn’t go through all that, so I’m interested to see what kind of game he’s playing at.”

Huo Mian’s instincts told her that she wouldn’t be in danger…

However, she was curious because she didn’t know what he wanted to do. Therefore, she wanted to keep investigating.

Before Qin Chu said anything, Huo Mian added, “Honey, we may be unharmed after this incident, but it doesn’t mean we’ll be so lucky next time. He may cause more trouble and set us up again… I’d rather we go with the flow this time… As long as the two of us work together to put on a show, I’m sure we’ll be extremely convincing.”

“Even so… we’ll have to keep icing each other… That way, I won’t be able to see you or hold you.” Qin Chu was obviously unwilling.

“We’re just trying to lure the snake out of its hole, it’s not real. We can contact each other in private and use WeChat. Didn’t you install anti-wiretap systems onto our phones? No one will know.” Huo Mian smiled.

Qin Chu didn’t say anything…

He knew Huo Mian had a point; although it was risky, they couldn’t be on the defensive forever.

This time he used Su Yu and Zhao Xiya’s death to get to them. What would he do next time?

After struggling for a while, he finally gave in to Huo Mian’s persuasion and unwillingly nodded his head…

Huo Mian pecked him lightly on the corner of his mouth, her eyes filled with content.

“Honey… thanks for all the hard work. Let’s work together to deal with our enemy.” Huo Mian was immediately pumped with positive energy.

“You have to promise me that if there’s any danger, we’ll abort the plan immediately… You can’t risk yourself… or else I will never forgive you.”

“I got it…” Huo Mian playfully stuck her tongue out; she felt like Qin Chu was way too nervous.

It wasn’t like she was made of paper.

In the end, Qin Chu left South Side unwillingly and drove back to Imperial Park.

Huo Mian, on the other hand, continued with her night shift…

– The next morning –

A piece of news exposed by a local newspaper outlet attracted the attention of the entire city.

‘GK’s President Meets with Mysterious Woman at Night, Seemingly Having an Affair.’

Everyone went into an uproar as soon as word got out…

First, Huo Mian seduced Su Yu; then, Qin Chu met with a mysterious woman. What was this couple trying to do?

Moreover, there was also a blurry photo of Qin Chu’s car, with a long-haired woman sitting in the back seat.

However, that woman definitely wasn’t Huo Mian. Huo Mian’s hair fell down to her shoulders, while this woman’s hair fell down to her waist.

Zhu Lingling lost her cool after getting off the plane and he immediately drove to South Side.

After entering Huo Mian’s office, she grabbed her collar and tried to pull her out.

“Girl… what are you doing so early in the morning? I’m not off work yet.”

“How can you still be at work, your husband is running away with someone else, did you know?” Zhu Lingling demanded angrily.
