My Youth Began With Him

“Okay. Come in.”

Huo Mian seldom saw Shen Mingxi because of Huo Yanyan.

Not only her but Su Yu, Tang Chuan, and Weil Liao had distanced themselves from him, as well.

Among the once-famous Four Princes in C City, Shen Mingxi was now standing alone from the other three.

Even though his relationship with them had become less tense, he couldn’t be as easy with them as before.

Of course, Su Yu was still close to him, but due to his lousy mood, Shen Mingxi didn’t spend much time with Su Yu and the others. Besides, Wei Liao couldn’t bear the sight of him.

Huo Mian poured him a cup of water and turned to put on a white coat.

She sat down on her chair behind the desk while Shen Mingxi took a seat on the sofa.

“Young Master Shen, I have a meeting in a moment. We’re no strangers. Just speak your mind.”

“Okay. I don’t want to take too much of your time, Dr. Huo. Huo Yanyan…wants to see you.”

“See me?” Huo Mian looked surprised.

“Yeah, her spirits are low.”

“Isn’t she like this all the time? She’s mentally diseased and must stay in there.” Huo Mian shrugged.

“No. I meant her appetite… She used to be bad-tempered and liked to curse people and smash things, but still she could eat. But in the past two weeks, she eats and drinks little and sleeps little, losing much weight. The psychiatric center wants her family to talk to her. You know she doesn’t have any family, so they called me. I went to see her last night. I was surprised that she didn’t rail against me or curse me or ask about Tiantian. She just said a few words with me calmly. Before I left, she suddenly told me that she wanted to see you.”

“Oh, I see…” Huo Mian was deep in thought.

“Of course, this request is impertinent. I just came to deliver the message. She did lots of things to harm you and doesn’t deserve your forgiveness. If you don’t want to see her, it’s okay.”

“I understand, Young Master Shen. I know what you mean.”

“Okay. I won’t take more of your time then.”

“Okay.”

Delivering the message, Shen Mingxi stood up and left.

Huo Mian felt disturbed.

Just like Huo Siqian, Huo Yanyan didn’t deserve her forgiveness, but she couldn’t kill Huo Yanyan.

She could only put Huo Yanyan in a secluded place and let the latter fade out of their lives.

Huo Mian had thought Huo Yanyan would live the rest of her life in a psychiatric hospital.

After all, Qin Chu and Gao Ran had mentioned more than once that they wouldn’t let Huo Yanyan out; she would pose a great danger to them if she was out.

Usually, only Shen Mingxi went to see her. Lately, in his effort to win back Wei Ying, even Shen Mingxi stopped visiting her.

But he’d send money, food, clothes, and necessities to her since they had been a couple for a while.

On this point, Shen Mingxi had done his best.

Huo Mian went to the morning meeting with mixed feelings.

On her way back from the meeting, she bumped into Mrs. Su, who was on her way to her office from home.

“Hello, Mian.” Mrs. Su called out warmly as she did every time when she saw Huo Mian.

“Hello, Auntie Su.” Huo Mian smiled.

“Come and look at this girl. What do you think?” Mrs. Su took out a photo on which was a pretty young girl with big eyes and an oval face.

“She looks nice. Who’s she?”
