My Youth Began With Him

“Uh… I didn’t…”

“You didn’t what? You didn’t jump off a building?” Qin Chu questioned coldly.

“No, I didn’t want to leave you guys. Honey… please don’t get mad at me. We’ve pretended for so long and it’s been so tiring. The library is the only place I can cozy up to you.”

Huo Mian hugged Qin Chu’s neck from the back and pressed her face against Master Qin’s in an attempt to please the man.

Acting cute was not Huo Mian’s forte and it was something no one else would ever witness…

It was only for Qin Chu’s eyes to see… so every time she did something wrong, Huo Mian acted cute around him before he got too mad.

It always worked… but this time… the problem seemed to be more serious.

“Stop… I’m not going to forgive you just because you’re acting cute…”

“Then… what if I seduce you.” Huo Mian pouted her lips and pulled down her collar, revealing a large area of skin.

Qin Chu glanced at her and gulped.

With forced composure, he said, “Seduction won’t work either. Mian, do you know how recklessly you acted this time?”

“I know, I know, but I’m fine, aren’t I?” Huo Mian laughed.

“You can’t depend on luck all the time. It’s wrong and it’s risky… I can’t take that risk, got it?” Qin Chu continued with a dark expression.

“Yes, yes, yes, Honey… I got it. I just found out that you had people protecting me this whole entire time… I thought that you’ve already called it off.”

“How could I? I can’t relax as long as Huo Siqian’s alive. You almost made me explode when my people reported back to me…” Qin Chu was clearly still pissed.

“Haha, how did your guys describe it to you?” Like a child, Huo Mian rocked back and forth with her arms wrapped around Qin Chu’s neck, completely unlike the commanding vice director of a hospital that she was.

“My men told me… that they were just about to save you when they saw you pulling Huo Siqian off the building with you.”

“Hahaha, were you scared out of your wits?” Huo Mian laughed.

“You’re laughing?! Little Mian, have you no shame?” Qin Chu wanted to facepalm.

His soul nearly left his body when he had heard the news but this woman was here, laughing at it like it was a joke? How could she?

“I’m fine now, aren’t I?”

“Don’t talk about now. Let me ask you. If you actually fell back then, from more than a dozen floors high, do you think you would’ve survived?” Qin Chu asked coldly.

“I didn’t think about it too much when it was happening… they can kill me but they can’t take me alive… Isn’t that what happens in all movies?” Huo Mian said matter-of-factly.

Qin Chu was fuming…

He reached out and slapped Huo Mian’s little hands to the side…

“Don’t touch me. Stay away from me.”

“Honey… are you still mad?”

“Wasn’t I always mad?” Qin Chu questioned back.

“Please stop being mad. I’ll take you to eat Ah-Xin Ramen,” Huo Mian suggested.

“They charge two yuan per bowl. Do I need you to treat me?” Qin Chu clapped back.

“Ugh… then I’ll treat you to four-pound Australian king lobsters?” Huo Mian decided to go all out.

“My stomach hurts from seafood,” Qin Chu snorted.

“Ugh… then what should I do? Honey, give me a chance… even murderers aren’t sentenced to death right away.”

“You’re worse than a murderer. Even murderers aren’t as reckless as you, leaving behind me and our daughters. You should change your name tomorrow… change it to Hero Huo. How valiant!”

Huo Mian: “…”
