CHAPTER 717: CHAPTER 657: AO CHEN VS HUO QI 23_3
Ao Chen, "Years ago, you turned and left so decisively, did you already guess that I would regret it, and that because of love, I would think about you even more?"
Huo Qi squinted his eyes, flicked the water droplets off his hand, "That’s an interesting thing to say, so are you questioning me now, why I became someone you like?"
Ao Chen: "Huo Qi, speak properly."
Huo Qi laughed, staring into Ao Chen’s eyes, "You’ve probably never tasted failure, so after failing with me, it arouses your desire to conquer, your curiosity, and your charismatic personality, which keeps you thinking about me. Don’t you know your own feelings? And yet you come questioning me, Ao Chen, do you think that’s appropriate?"
Ao Chen, disregarding everything, moved closer to him. Huo Qi instinctively moved aside, and then Ao Chen suddenly laughed, "What are you avoiding? I denied everything I said before, and in the future, I’ll do whatever I want."
Huo Qi’s eyes twinkled, "What do you want to do?"
"Isn’t it obvious? Does wanting to chase you again count?"
Blinking, Huo Qi laughed, "Ao Chen, do you think I would believe you?"
"Believe it or not, let’s talk about it after I do it. Though you might not agree, I want to try."
"How would you try?"
Ao Chen: "If I told you now, would you be with me?"
Huo Qi: "..."
Ao Chen, when shameless, uses very deep tactics, fooling people into getting lost in his tricks.
At the door, Allen’s voice suddenly erupted, "Huo Qi, Ao Chen, are you two okay? It’s time to eat. Jessica has been looking for you two outside. Do you have a frequent urge to pee? Prostate problems?
Spending such a long time in the restroom, only you two could manage that. Really, can’t you choose another day for urinary urgency? It’s Jessica’s wedding day, after all."
Both of their faces turned dark. Ao Chen couldn’t hold back, and in a few strides, he reached the door, pulled it open, and yanked Allen by the collar, his smile bone-chilling, "Allen, repeat what you just said. I didn’t quite catch it and want to hear it again."
Allen twisted, unable to escape Ao Chen’s grip, and smiled pleadingly, "Ao Chen, no, no, leave me some dignity. Am I not shameless?"
Despite being a big and tall guy, being held up by Ao Chen like that was hardly dignified.
Huo Qi followed and caught up, while Allen tried to ingratiate himself, "Huo Qi, tell Ao Chen to let me go. This is so embarrassing for me. I do care about my reputation."
Huo Qi shrugged, "I can’t help you. You need to mind your own speech."
Allen, "I’ll change, I’ll change. Just make Ao Chen let go of me."
"Now?" Huo Qi’s tone was slightly rising, "Too late."
Allen: "...I’m just saying, you two are just as cold and heartless as ever. Who will be responsible if I cry?"
Ao Chen: "..."
Huo Qi: "..."
Both felt some emotions regarding their past memories. Some feelings can’t deceive people, even if they feel indifferent, as soon as there’s a reminder, memories buried deep resurface.
Huo Qi smiled at Allen, "Go ahead and cry, I’ll take responsibility."
Ao Chen’s expression darkened, and Allen, sensing Ao Chen’s mood, hastily waved his hands, "No, no need, I don’t need you to take responsibility. I’m a grown man; what is there to cry about?"
Luckily for Allen, Jessica arrived to find them, looking at the trio’s undignified state, she intervened, "I mean, you two tone it down a bit. It’s my wedding, after all. Give me some face. There are plenty of chances to deal with Allen, let go of him."
Any gratitude Allen felt disappeared on the spot.
What does she mean by there are plenty of times to deal with him? These pranksters.
...
"Have you two made up?" After Ao Chen let go of Allen, Jessica, unconcerned, asked directly. Ao Chen hesitated, and Huo Qi smiled, "What does it look like? If he and I had made up, wouldn’t you know?
Didn’t get enough dog food in the past?"
Jessica: "...Alright, forget I asked. You two are really infuriating. Do I deserve to be so frustrated by you? At least have some pity that I am a woman. You really don’t understand. I’m really sad, truly upset;
I tell you, in front of my husband, you must not be rude to me. I too need some dignity.
At least for today, you must give me face, I’m the most important today, and you guys have no say."
