Chapter 2574: Who Would Dare to Mind?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Han Zhuoling said a little pitifully, “They all brought their family along. If I go alone, it just feels lonely and bleak.”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya no longer wanted to eat with them anymore in the first place.
She had agreed to go at first, thinking that they really had not seen each other in a long time.
She’d felt that everyone was cla.s.smates, so they would not go overboard no matter what.
Alas, when they met today, they actually seemed to have gotten worse.
She already did not want to talk to them here. If she were to eat together with them, she might just become gastric.
Everyone was stunned.
Just before, when Han Zhuoling came to send s.h.i.+ Xiaoya over, he had at least still maintained his cold and arrogant image.
Yet now, he had started acting pitiful in front of s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
These two, their relations.h.i.+p was really very good, then!
Before this, who the h.e.l.l had ever seen Han Zhuoling acting pitiful?!
They would not even have dared to think about it!
Han Zhuoling did not wait for s.h.i.+ Xiaoya to reply. His gaze landed right on Huo Dongsen.
Previously, he was chatting with his old cla.s.smates; although they were old cla.s.smates, they were all in the same industry, so they would see each other all the time.
So the nostalgic feeling one got from meeting old cla.s.smates was not there.
Hence, Han Zhuoling’s attention had been on s.h.i.+ Xiaoya all along.
Most importantly, he was not very a.s.sured.
After leaving s.h.i.+ Xiaoya with her cla.s.smates, Han Zhuoling kept thinking of Du Yiqin’s words.
She’d said that s.h.i.+ Xiaoya had always had guys chasing her since she was young. She just did not know it, and she even foolishly thought that no one wanted to woo her.
Han Zhuoling then thought, what if among s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s cla.s.smates, there was still one who had not given up and still liked her?
And yet, that silly girl still did not notice anything.
It was one thing that s.h.i.+ Xiaoya did not like the person, but for someone to be pining for his fiancée, how enraging it would be.
So Han Zhuoling could no longer stand staying there and walked towards s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s side.
And indeed!
The moment he walked over, he heard someone speaking shamelessly!
Han Zhuoling thought to himself that, luckily, he came over. If not, he would not even have known that there was still someone who had not given up on his fat hopes and still pined for s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
So, Han Zhuoling quickly said something and walked over to s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s side, then hugged her waist to display his dominance.
Huo Dongsen’s expression changed immediately as he stared at Han Zhuoling, feeling dumbstruck.
Although he had been overseas all this time, he knew who Han Zhuoling was.
After all, he belonged to the most elite echelon of society in the country.
He had to know these things no matter what.
But looking at it now, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya and Han Zhuoling?
Huo Dongsen’s expression switched between shock and doubt.
Han Zhuoling even extended his hand to Huo Dongsen in a prim and proper manner and said, “h.e.l.lo, I am Xiaoya’s fiancé, Han Zhuoling.”
Huo Dongsen could only extend his hand to shake Han Zhuoling’s hand and reply, “h.e.l.lo, I am… Xiaoya’s cla.s.smate, Huo Dongsen.”
Han Zhuoling nodded and let go of Huo Dongsen’s hand.
Han Zhuoling’s expression looked very calm. He was a sly old fox, after all. How was he someone whom these young people could deal with?
Only Huo Dongsen felt exceptionally uneasy deep down.
He did not expect that though he had been overseas to study for only two years, after coming back, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya would actually already have a fiancé.
And her fiancé was not just anyone; it was Han Zhuoling!
If it was someone else, Huo Dongsen still would have had the confidence to compete.
But the other party was Han Zhuoling. For a moment, Huo Dongsen did not even have the heart to think of competing against him.
Han Zhuoling smiled politely and said, “I’m sorry, I have to bring Xiaoya away. You all don’t mind, right?”
If Han Zhuoling spoke, who would dare to mind?
Even Gao Yaohai, who’d kept telling s.h.i.+ Xiaoya that she had to attend their gathering this time…
