Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain - Chapter 235
Chapter 235
“Aren’t Li Jinyuan and I good?” Huo Chengming asked.
Zhong Yuhuan: “?”
“Ah, um… good. Very good. Super good!” Zhong Yuhuan thought about it and felt that she had to say that they were good, otherwise the villain would remember it. He would hold this grudge for over a hundred eighty years.
“Then why not?” Huo Chengming asked. His voice was extremely low, his breath unstable.
The moment his words left his mouth, Huo Chengming felt like a fireball had rolled itself across his heart. His whole body felt hot, taut, and pressured. Deep within, he held an unspeakable expectation, but also worry and anxiety was mixed in there as well.
“What?” Zhong Yuhuan didn’t hear clearly.
His voice was really too low.
“I said, why not?” Huo Chengming repeated.
He felt like that fireball was about to burst from his chest.
Zhong Yuhuan was a bit surprised.
Why not?
Why not search for a boyfriend based on them?
What does he mean by that?
“Huanhuan.” Footsteps approached, and Li Jinyuan stopped in front of them. He first lifted his head to look at Huo Chengming, then looked at Zhong Yuhuan. “We should leave. Cousin’s waiting.”
“Oh, okay,” Zhong Yuhuan immediately answered.
Huo Chengming tightly pursed his lips together and also furrowed his brows.
He looked at Li Jinyuan. The pair looked at each other for three seconds before breaking eye contact.
Zhong Yuhuan turned and walked out.
Although Huo Chengming’s request was a bit weird, it wasn’t that outrageous…
It was probably because they’ve been together for so long, so they really think of her as family. Therefore, they’re worried about her dating someone, hoping that she’d choose a great person, right?
Thinking this, Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t help but smile.
As of now, Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan had already completely broken away from her stereotype of villains and male leads.
Worrying about this type of thing… was actually pretty cute.
Zhong Yuhuan turned her head and smiled. “Brother Chengming, hurry up. It’s time to board the car.”
Huo Chengming unexpectedly met her with a brilliant smile.
The fireball was immediately stuffed tightly back into his chest.
Huo Chengming unconsciously licked his lips.
He wanted more.
For the smile just now, he wanted more in that instant, much more. He’d be able to hold onto it longer, every day, in the future.
Huo Chengming couldn’t be sure of Zhong Yuhuan’s thoughts yet, but his depressed mood improved, so he quickly caught up to her.
Everyone got in Lang Jinzhi’s car and went to the airport.
When Zhong Yuhuan was about to get off, Lang Jinzhi said, “Don’t move.”
“Hm? Cousin?” Zhong Yuhuan puzzledly looked at him.
Lang Jinzhi opened his car door first, getting out from the driver’s seat, then walked to the front passenger seat. He opened her car door, leaning in to release Zhong Yuhuan’s seatbelt. Simultaneously, he said, “Dating is allowed, but you cannot be overly obsessed with it. Don’t be deceived by the other person. Don’t be immersed in an ambiguous atmosphere. Also… if you can’t tell if the other person’s good or not, then I’ll distinguish him for you.”
When Zhong Yuhuan heard this, her heart was touched again.
Not only was Huo Chengming worried, but Lang Jinzhi was also worried for her.
Zhong Yuhuan nodded and obediently smiled. “Mhm, I’ll listen to older cousin.”
Lang Jinzhi finally straightened and moved away. “Disembark then.”
Zhong Yuhuan exited the car, going with Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan to the departure hall.
Lang Jinzhi looked at her back figure, then couldn’t help but lower his head to look at his own palm. It was still too little. He hadn’t pampered her enough. He missed too much before and hadn’t made up for it yet. He was going to watch her rush into the embrace of someone else, like a swallow leaving the nest.
At his age, Lang Jinzhi hadn’t even had a girlfriend yet, not to mention children. But he did feel a bit like he was raising a daughter.
After receiving their boarding passes, they arrived at the departure lounge.
Gu Yuling smilingly asked, “Did Mr. Lang bring you guys here?”
Zhong Yuhuan nodded.
After Gu Yuling’s voice fell, there were no more voices.
Yin Qiqi and Ling Lan were also there to board the plane. Only Ge Mei and Wen Yongchen were not there. But other than Gu Yuling, the others were strangely quiet.
Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t resist looking at them with curiosity.
Yin Qiqi immediately smiled at her.
But Ling Lan… Ling Lan’s eyes clearly carried a bit of jealousy.
Zhong Yuhuan: “???”
What did she do?
She and Ling Lan had almost no interactions under the camera. Could Ling Lan harbor ill will towards her?
Li Jinyuan suddenly came from behind, raising his arm and half-hugged Zhong Yuhuan.
He raised his head slightly, his gaze vaguely sinking as he glanced at Ling Lan. After that glance, Li Jinyuan didn’t look at her at all and walked directly to the ticket gate with Zhong Yuhuan. At the same time, he whispered next to Zhong Yuhuan’s ear, “Huanhuan, what were Huo Chengming and you talking about when we were leaving?”
Zhong Yuhuan was taken back. “Huh? We didn’t say anything.”
With that, Zhong Yuhuan unconsciously struggled against Li Jinyuan’s arm. Li Jinyuan seemed to be loosely holding her, but in reality, he was using a lot of strength, giving Zhong Yuhuan a feeling of being trapped.
Li Jinyuan noticed her movements, asking, “What’s wrong?”
“Too close.”
“What’s the problem?” Li Jinyuan laughed in her ear. “Everyone knows that we’re family already.”
It is just that…
Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t help but look back. Ling Lan was a few steps behind, the emotions in her eyes seeming to increase. Zhong Yuhuan sighed.
