Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 974: Chapter 973: I Give You Face, Do You Dare Accept It?

”You...” Huo Qianfang pointed at Su Yang, wanting to speak, but her eyes reddened first, and she suddenly found herself unable to utter the words that followed.

This moment left everyone completely baffled. What on earth was going on?

Huo Qianfang looked at Su Yang with a loving and emotional expression, her eyes reddening again. She seemed to want to accuse him, but it was as if she couldn’t bear to speak. It was as though she was a wronged woman who had been toyed with, and now she was confronting the man responsible.

Zhao Jun, Hei Ma, and the others were also bewildered, standing next to Su Yang, under the scrutiny of everyone else, especially as they witnessed Huo Qianfang’s reddened eyes, they felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. They quietly moved back a bit to escape everyone’s gaze, making way for Su Yang and Huo Qianfang.

Su Yang was also utterly confused. Just a moment ago, he had been wondering if it could actually be Huo Qianfang. To his astonishment, it really was her.

Upon seeing Huo Qianfang, Su Yang couldn’t help but recall the several times Huo Qianfang had threatened him, and he was genuinely frightened to the core. When it came to dealing with women, especially one like Huo Qianfang, Su Yang truly felt helpless.

Just then, Huo Zihen came up from behind, laughing as he said, ”Mr. Su, what a coincidence!”

Only then did Su Yang come to his senses, replying with an embarrassed face, ”Mr. Huo, how come... how come you’re here?”

”Miss is studying here!” Huo Zihen paused for a moment, then laughed, ”Mr. Su, you’re really secretive in your ways. Coming to study here and not even letting us know. Luckily, Miss found out you had transferred a large sum of money, so she immediately came over. Otherwise, we wouldn’t even have known you were here!”

The surrounding crowd was utterly shocked by this exchange. Did they just hear that right? Huo, the Campus Belle, actually knows Su Yang?

And from the looks they were giving each other, their relationship seemed anything but simple.

Had Su Yang let down Huo, the Campus Belle? Otherwise, why would her eyes be reddening?

Su Yang was overwhelmed with embarrassment. He truly hadn’t anticipated that Huo Qianfang would be studying here, and he certainly hadn’t expected things to develop to this point.

Looking at Huo Qianfang’s expression, Su Yang felt helpless and quickly murmured in a low voice, ”Look, I... I didn’t know you were studying here. If I had known, I... I definitely would have told you!”

Huo Qianfang’s expression softened a bit, and ignoring the looks of the others, she walked straight up to Su Yang and took his arm, ”That settles it then. If you don’t tell me next time, I’ll never let you off the hook!”

Everyone was stunned. What was happening? Was Huo, the Campus Belle, really this close to Su Yang?

Su Yang, however, was visibly embarrassed. He really wanted to tell Huo Qianfang, ”Big sister, we’re actually not that close.”

But in the end, Su Yang didn’t dare to speak up. The Huo Family was unreasonable, especially the women. Both Huo Qianfang and Huo Yuanzhen were cut from the same cloth!

Of course, Su Yang was unaware that Huo Qianfang was actually quite reasonable. The Huo Qianfang who had been unreasonable with him was not herself, but rather an impostor or under the control of Huo Yuanzhen. Nevertheless, it was enough to instill a deep-seated fear of the Huo Family in Su Yang, and he dared not provoke them any further.

”I told you, Mr. Su certainly didn’t do it on purpose. You shouldn’t be angry,” Huo Zihen said with a laugh at his side. ”Don’t you know how Mr. Su feels about you? In the future, he will definitely not deceive you!”

Su Yang was flabbergasted. Huo Zihen’s words were utterly shameless. What had he done to Huo Qianfang? How did the conversation turn out this way?

But the people present were all full of confusion, as they listened to Huo Zihen’s words, they couldn’t help but feel that the relationship between Huo Qianfang and Su Yang seemed abnormal, didn’t it?

The group around Young Master Lin was the most baffled, with Li Chuan being the first to regain his composure. He glanced at Young Master Lin, then over at Su Yang and Huo Qianfang and said, trembling, ”Young Master Lin, is there... some mistake here?”

Young Master Lin finally snapped back to reality, but he was still dumbstruck. Watching Huo Qianfang and Su Yang together in an affectionate manner, he was almost driven mad with rage. However, he managed to restrain his fury and took a step forward, saying softly, ”Miss Huo, hello, my name is Lin Dong, I am...”

”I’m not interested in knowing who you are. Get lost!” Huo Qianfang cut him off directly. She was in a good mood being with Su Yang. Having someone interrupt them at this moment was like scratching at her scale.

Huo Qianfang’s temper wasn’t particularly pleasant to begin with; when she was happy and someone disturbed her, she was even less likely to speak nicely.

Young Master Lin was stunned. Who ever spoke to him like that? Here in Capital City, although his family wasn’t the largest, they were by no means a small power. Who dared to belittle him?

Taking a deep breath, Young Master Lin intensified his tone, ”Miss Huo, my name is Lin Dong, and I am from the Jing City Lin Family. Tonight, I have a reception, and I would be honored if Miss Huo could grace it with her presence for the sake of the Lin Family.”

As he spoke, Young Master Lin also gave Su Yang a cold glance. He had specifically mentioned his family in order to pressure Huo Qianfang.

So what if Su Yang has a good relationship with her? Hmph, at worst, I’ll just steal her away. I don’t believe that after knowing my family, she won’t develop feelings for me.

”I told you to get lost, didn’t you hear?” Huo Qianfang said indignantly.

Young Master Lin was angry. He said gravely, ”Miss Huo, are you not giving the Lin Family face?”

Huo Zihen laughed, ”I’ll give you face, but would you dare to accept it? The Lin Family, huh, what is Lin Shangkun to you?”

Young Master Lin’s expression changed. Lin Shangkun was the patriarch of the Lin Family and also his grandfather. The fact that Huo Zihen dared to directly say his name signified that Huo Zihen was no ordinary figure.

”He’s my grandfather. May I ask...” Young Master Lin said quietly.

”Your grandfather?” Huo Zihen laughed, ”Even if your grandfather stood before me, he would have to be respectful, so what are you to mention the Lin Family to me?”

Young Master Lin was confused. The expression and tone of Huo Zihen didn’t seem fake. Could it be that this family really was extraordinary?

”What a nuisance, any Tom, Dick, or Harry now blocks the way,” Huo Zihen sighed, smiling at Su Yang, ”By the way, Mr. Su, don’t you have a reception tonight? How about we go to the town first?”

”That would be good,” Su Yang smiled and said, ”I’ll go hail a cab.”

”What do you need a cab for? We have three cars here; we can just drive over,” Huo Zihen said. ”It’s just a bit of a hassle, we might have to make two trips.”

Zhao Jun and the others nearby looked at the luxury cars with license plates of five eights and fives and sixes, all with eager faces looking at Su Yang. They hadn’t even dreamed of riding in such luxury cars.

Seeing their excitement, Su Yang gave a helpless smile, ”Well then, I guess we’ll trouble Mr. Huo. However, I think we might have to make three trips now.”
