But… being happy was good.
She hoped that he would always be so happy.
Because she would never bother him again.
She stood there and looked up at the fireworks in the sky. She saw them blooming more and more brightly. She thought that his mood must be so brilliant.
She stood there and watched.
She watched that truckful of fireworks…
Until her limbs were numb from the cold.
It wasn’t easy for her to get back into the car, but the warmth inside made her want to burst into tears.
That cry came too suddenly and too fiercely, making her unable to control herself. She cried until her heart hurt.
She cried until dawn.
…
It was only the next day that Long Feilei found out that the second son of the Long family had made such a post on his WeChat Moments last night, and it had even caused such an impact in the circle. It made people think that because Huo Yuqi had given up on him, he was so happy that he had put on fireworks for the entire night.
He instinctively took out his phone and wanted to explain something to Huo Yuqi. However, just as he was about to call the number, he suddenly thought that she might misunderstand something if he explained it like this. But if he didn’t explain, it would hurt her greatly. This…
Long Feilei, who felt that something was amiss, rushed into the second Long brother’s room angrily and beat him up without a word.
“Even if you’re the boss, you still have to have a reason to beat me up! Why are you beating me up without a reason? Do you think I’m still that child who was easy to bully?” Back when the second son of the Long family’s adored face had been beaten up, it made him start to resist.
“Don’t you know what you’ve done?” Long Feilei said coldly.
“I know! But it’s the truth! Didn’t you say that you were so happy that you wanted to set off firecrackers?!” The second Long brother used the other’s words to retort.
Long Feilei: “…!!”
After a while…
“I was just saying that casually. I was just letting my family know. Meanwhile, you told everyone. How much damage this must have caused Yuqi, do you know?” Even if he didn’t like her, he didn’t want her to lose face and hurt her like this.
“That’s true.” The second son of the Long family pretended to think about this.
Seeing him like this, Long Feilei couldn’t help but punch him again.
“Stop beating me up! Stop beating me up! I’ll resolve this matter!” The second son of the Long family stopped him.
“How are you going to resolve this?!”
“Isn’t that simple?” As the second son of the Long family spoke, he picked up his phone and uploaded another message to his WeChat Moments. Last night, many friends had asked him what had made his boss so happy. Now, the answer was officially announced! Their Long family…
The second son of the Long family wrote about a big collaboration that the Long family had recently won.
Everyone knew that the Long family’s boss had spent a lot of effort to fight for this big collaboration. Now that he had it, it was indeed worth him celebrating.
In other words, their guess last night was wrong.
After the second son of the Long family was done, he put away his phone.
“Alright, this matter is over.”
Long Feilei: “…”
Just as he was about to leave…
The second son of the Long family asked, “That’s right, Boss. Did Yuqi come over to look for you or call you to ask about this?”
It was only then that Long Feilei realized that Huo Yuqi, who had always come to him immediately to ask him about anything, did not come to him to seek confirmation this time. He had made her lose face and caused her so much harm, but she did not come to him to seek confirmation. She did not even give him a call.
“From the looks of it, she didn’t come.”
Long Feilei: “…”
“Brother, you can rest a.s.sured. It looks like Huo Yuqi has really given up on you this time. She didn’t even come to seek confirmation. She must have felt that there was no point in seeking confirmation.. Anyway, she has given up.”
