CHAPTER 701: CHAPTER 652: AO CHEN VS HUO QI 18_2

I can’t bring myself to speak ill of my savior.

Even though he really does have a bit of a temper.

Huo Qi shook his head, smiling amicably, "No, he’s not, are you his friends?"

He recognized Jessica, but had no intention of climbing the social ladder, as they were not from the same class; trying to force his way into their circle would only make a fool of himself.

Davis smiled slyly, "Handsome, were you the one who slept with our Ao Chen last night?"

This frivolous demeanor really annoyed Huo Qi; he stepped back, maintaining his smile, "Sir, I don’t understand what you mean, but I slept in that gentleman’s guest room last night."

"Really, here we were thinking you slept with Ao Chen."

Allan appeared disappointed; he found that while foreigners speak more directly, Huo Qi felt they were extremely impolite, his brows furrowed tightly, "Then I’ll be leaving now, your friend is at home."

"Buddy, wait a moment."

Jessica stopped him, and Huo Qi turned around to face her, "What is it?"

"You stayed at his house overnight, and you don’t know who he is?"

That shouldn’t be, in this circle, perhaps no one is more famous than Ao Chen; he’s produced soundtracks for many major movies.

Puzzled by Jessica’s question, Huo Qi felt confused; the man’s face was very unfamiliar to him, "Could he be a celebrity?"

Jessica: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Jessica suddenly laughed, "His name is Ao Chen, think about it again?"

Ao Chen?

Is there something special about this name?

Seeing that he didn’t catch on, Jessica hinted, "Songwriter."

Huo Qi’s eyes suddenly brightened considerably, "You mean, he’s that Ao Chen? The music prodigy, Ao Chen?"

How could this be? How could Ao Chen look like that? He doesn’t look the part at all.

The shock on Huo Qi’s face didn’t seem feigned; Jessica smiled somewhat helplessly, "Now that you know his identity, do you still think our questions are too much?"

Huo Qi shook his head, "I was wrong, I apologize."

Jessica walked up to him, eyes smiling, "Don’t you have any thoughts about Ao Chen at all?"

Regarding this question, apart from finding it completely absurd, Huo Qi only had one thought about Ao Chen’s friends: strange people.

What kind of questions were these people asking? Did he look like he had questionable orientations?

Okay, even if he did like men, Ao Chen still wouldn’t be right for him.

Shaking his head, Huo Qi’s expression was cool and distant, "No."

"This time, some people are going to bite the dust." Davis really wanted to mock Ao Chen ruthlessly, but on second thought, he felt a bit cowardly and hesitant.

Huo Qi bowed slightly to the group, "I’ll go first, thank you."

...

As soon as Huo Qi left, Davis got excited, "Jessica, I bet a million that Ao Chen won’t catch up to the young guy."

Jessica, fearless when gambling, especially on such an interesting bet, "Two million, Ao Chen will catch him soon."

Allan, "Hahaha, Jessica, it’s obvious, you’ve lost, two million, Ao Chen won’t catch up to the young guy."

Angus and Eric hesitated, both feeling it unlikely, but Ao Chen had a way of making things work out, it wasn’t superstition, just...

They didn’t dare to bet lightly.

Davis felt he couldn’t be stingy, adding one million to the pot, making everyone’s bet two million.

Angus, "I’ll follow Jessica; she has good luck, and I bet Ao Chen can catch up to the young guy."

Eric, "I bet he can’t catch the young guy; the guy is pretty aloof, and with Ao Chen’s temper, can he really charm people? Put your hope in him, it’s a nightmare."

Everyone: "..."

Then, a gloomy voice came from behind them, "Are you making bets using me without my permission?"

Everyone: "..."

Are you ghosting us?

Appearing like this can scare people to death.

Ao Chen looked annoyed, because his friends were unreliable, but now was not the time for settling scores, there was something more important to find out, "Davis, how’s your business going?"

Davis smiled, a glint of profound meaning in his eyes, "Don’t worry, with me on it, of course, it’s a success. As for the handling, once Huo Qi returns to school, he’ll know what kind of punishment his tutor is going to get."

Ao Chen nodded, "Well done, the better you do, the more leverage I have. I think, Jessica will win."
