Chapter 846: Huo Yingcheng, Yu Bao’er (18)
“But he can’t do anything to me if I don’t come to Penalan.”
Huo Yingcheng: “…”
This was a fatal reason that he was unable to refute.
Yu Bao’er knew that Lloyd was someone she couldn’t afford to mess with. Also, there was no reason for her to deliberately mess with him.
But perhaps because she felt that there was no one for her to depend on in the palace… she decided to follow Huo Yingcheng closely.
After the banquet ended, as discussed earlier, Gu Qingjiu asked Huo Yingcheng to take Yu Bao’er around Penalan to have fun.
Yu Bao’er had long wanted to come to this city. Now, she was going to have fun to her heart’s content.
Although her family was considered well-off, it was nothing compared to the royals.
She changed the money she saved from her allowance all these years and planned to buy things. It was about two hundred thousand yuan converted into Penalan currency.
In the end, on the first day of going out, Huo Yingcheng saw her broken manner. He mocked, “You look so poor. Forget it, I’ll pay for everything you buy here. Put it on my credit card. In any case, I can claim the expenses!”
“Really?”
Yu Bao’er’s eyes lit up.
But she was quite embarra.s.sed to use his card, so Yu Bao’er didn’t buy much, only the occasional souvenir.
Most of the time, they were sightseeing around Penalan city.
Penalan had gorgeous scenery and a pretty good culture.
Add to the fact that it was a country with Asian and European mixed blood, Yu Bao’er felt a closeness to them.
During October, Penalan starts to turn chilly. Fas.h.i.+onistas came and went on the streets, and there were also many TV stations holding events around.
She had never gone to such places and was having so much fun like a carefree girl.
She took a lot of photos to show her family.
Yu Bao’er liked to take selfies, but selfies were too casual.
She was about to send her photos to her family after taking them when she saw Huo Yingcheng, who had been accompanying her these few days. Yu Bao’er went up to him with her phone. “Commander Huo, shall we take a photo together?”
Huo Yingcheng twisted his face away. “Not interested.”
“Come on, it’s just a photo. It’s not like you’re ugly and unpresentable. I’m not even afraid of capturing you in my photos. What are you afraid of?”
Huo Yingcheng: “…”
Dammit!
People like him couldn’t stand to be provoked.
He twisted his face away and glared sideways at the screen.
Yu Bao’er instantly joyfully turned on the beautifying filter on her phone and made a V gesture beside Huo Yingcheng.
Snap!
The photo was shot.
In the photo, Huo Yingcheng was glaring ferociously at the screen. Although he was good-looking, there was a scary sternness about him.
He looked like the sort who would dash out from the screen any moment to give you a good beating.
The carefree Yu Bao’er sent this photo to her family group chat.
This instantly caused a stir.
Yu Kairan: Wah, after going one round around the capitalistic Penalan, you even found yourself a capitalistic boyfriend. You’re pretty capable huh, Yu Bao’er!
Dad: What, what, what… is this the boyfriend? One look and you can tell he will resort to domestic violence in the future. Don’t date him, sweetie. Listen to Daddy, dump him!
Mom: Young fellow is quite good-looking. Though, he indeed looks a tad too fierce. Bao’er, with your temperament, wouldn’t you be quarreling with him every day…
Yu Bao’er: Ugh, what are you guys talking about? This was my commander back when I was in the army. We’re attending my bestie’s wedding together. He’s taking me around Penalan for sightseeing these few days, so I just took a photo in pa.s.sing. There’s nothing between us, don’t let your thoughts run wild!
