C720 Wife Did They Bully You?
Lieh Yuanchen poured water for her. After a while, he raised his eyes and looked at her with a complicated gaze. He looked like he wanted to say something but did not want to.
This meal was especially silent until Hee Wanshuang put down the chopsticks and went to pack her things.
Lieh Yuanchen looked at her back and said, "Shuang, I have to go back to Country G tomorrow."
Hee Wanshuang replied.
Lieh Yuanchen's eyes were full of pain, but he still asked in the end. "If I had nothing, or even a house, would you care about me?"
Hee Wanshuang looked at him in confusion. There was shock in her eyes. "Why do you say that?"
"It's fine." Lieh Yuanchen smiled. "I was just asking."
Hee Wanshuang lowered her eyes. "We are just ordinary friends. It might not be appropriate for you to ask this question."
"Yes, I know." Lieh Yuanchen did not mention it anymore. Instead, he put away the trash in the room and said, "Shall we leave now?"
Hee Wanshuang originally planned to leave after tidying up in the morning. So after Lieh Yuanchen said so, she nodded and picked up the suitcase.
He helped her carry the suitcase into the car and was about to go to the driver's seat.
Hee Wanshuang stopped him. "Actually, I can drive by myself. You don't have to specially accompany me."
It would take six hours to drive from here to Imperial City, and the plane would only take more than an hour. This kind of relationship between them was somewhat strange.
Hee Wanshuang was afraid that Lieh Yuanchen would insist, so she added, "Besides, my boyfriend might pick me up from Imperial City. So..."
"It's alright, I'll explain it to him later." Lieh Yuanchen opened the door of the driver's seat without saying anything.
Hee Wanshuang had no choice but to sit in the car.
Lieh Yuanchen drove all the way to Imperial City. On the way, he occasionally chatted with Hee Wanshuang. When they did not talk, he quietly listened to the music.
On the way, they passed a service area. Lieh Yuanchen parked his car and got off with Hee Wanshuang.
He came out of the bathroom and looked at the hurrying travelers. He felt a little annoyed, so he lit a cigarette and went to the side to smoke.
Halfway through smoking, Lieh Yuanchen saw that Hee Wanshuang had not come out yet, so he went to the washroom to find someone.
Only when he looked at her did he realize that she was surrounded by two young men.
Those two seemed to be asking for directions, but their eyes were filled with malicious intent.
However, they did not have any intense language. They just surrounded Hee Wanshuang, asking for directions, and then saying that she looked familiar. Was she some celebrity?
Lieh Yuanchen immediately snuffed out the cigarette butt and strode over.
He still had the air of wind and tobacco on him. When he walked to Hee Wanshuang's side, he glanced at the two people and said sternly, "What is it?"
The two people were stunned. Immediately, they saw Lieh Yuanchen pull Hee Wanshuang into his arms and look at the two of them. "You want to fight?"
When he asked this, the two of them immediately retreated. Although they were two people, they were much smaller than Lieh Yuanchen. They started fighting. It was unknown who would win or lose.
Hee Wanshuang was also a little surprised. Lieh Yuanchen was not the one who attacked right from the start. What happened to him today?
"Wife, are you alright? Did they bully you?" Lieh Yuanchen lowered his head and asked Hee Wanshuang, who was in his arms.
The way he addressed her made her feel a little dazed, but in front of others, she naturally would not give him face.
Hence, Hee Wanshuang shook her head, "It's fine."
Lieh Yuanchen nodded. Only then did he raise his eyes and walk in front of the two people with Hee Wanshuang in his arms. He deliberately passed between them. "Move aside."
The two of them quickly retreated and looked at Lieh Yuanchen and Hee Wanshuang as they walked away.
After getting into the car, Lieh Yuanchen sighed and looked at Hee Wanshuang's hair. "In the future, if there are similar situations, call me loudly."
Hee Wanshuang nodded. "Okay, thank you."
She was always bullied like this. He was often not around, so how could he protect her? Lieh Yuanchen felt uncomfortable in his heart. He handed a cup of milk tea that he bought from the convenience store to Hee Wanshuang. "I just bought it."
Hee Wanshuang was surprised. She took it and thanked him again.
The two of them continued forward until they were about to enter the Imperial City. They went to the service area to buy some food.
It was already evening when they reached the Imperial City and the sky was already dark. Lieh Yuanchen drove to Hee Wanshuang's building and helped her carry her suitcase. He took her to the elevator and said, "Shuang, your parents don't like me. I won't send you up."
Hee Wanshuang nodded, "Thank you for today."
"You said a lot of thanks to me today." The light was dim and his deep eyes were focused on her eyes. His voice was also somewhat blurred, "Shuang, If you really want to thank me, then give me a hug."
Hee Wanshuang's heart skipped a beat and her face was covered with some heat but she unconsciously took half a step back.
"Even if it is between friends, it is not allowed?" Lieh Yuanchen continued to stare into her eyes. It was not bad at all. "Tomorrow is New Year's Day, a new year."
Hee Wanshuang bit her lower lip and took a step forward. She reached out and hugged Lieh Yuanchen.
She wanted to break up with a touch, but before she could stop, she was hugged by the man's strong arm.
The shoes she was wearing had just reached his shoulder. With this hug, she was completely in his embrace, and her breath was filled with his scent.
Her heartbeat was exceptionally clear in the silent underground parking lot.
Hee Wanshuang sniffed Lieh Yuanchen's breath and only felt her head buzzing. She moved and wanted to come out of his embrace when she heard the man whispering in her ear, "Shuang, I'm sorry."
His voice carried a bit of weakness and trembling. It was a dejection that she had never heard of before.
She clearly did not know why he said he was sorry, but her heart was still pierced by a needle because of it. It was somewhat painful.
Lieh Yuanchen said again, "I did not treat you well in the past. I am really sorry."
Hee Wanshuang suddenly felt a little sour in her nose. She tried her best to control this feeling.
"Shuang, wait for me." Lieh Yuanchen said again and then slowly let go of Hee Wanshuang.
She looked up and saw that his eyes were a little red. There were emotions in his eyes that she did not understand. He was like a dragon struggling in a cage, unable to escape the shackles of fate.
"Did something happen to you?" She asked.
"Nothing." Lieh Yuanchen smiled and rubbed Hee Wanshuang's hair. "Happy New Year."
Hee Wanshuang also tried hard to smile. "Happy New Year."
At that moment, Hee Wanshuang's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Xiao Cheng calling. She hesitated for a moment before answering, "Xiao Cheng."
When he heard this name, the expression on Lieh Yuanchen's face instantly froze.
"Okay, I got it. I just got home. Um, I was delayed by something. Okay, wait for me. I will come out with my parents after I change my clothes." After Hee Wanshuang said that, she hung up the phone.
When Lieh Yuanchen heard her, he felt hurt in the bottom of his eyes. "You..."
Hee Wanshuang realized something and nodded. "Yes, we have an appointment for tonight's gathering."
Actually, it was also a good time. Xiao Cheng's band was celebrating the new year in Imperial City today. The event started at 11: 30. He said that even if they were separated, they were still friends. So he invited Hee Wanshuang to dinner at night and took her to work to watch their new year performance.
They gave three tickets, which was also the reason Hee Wanshuang decided to go.
It was rare for her to accompany her parents, and this time she had such an opportunity. She could bring her parents to watch.
Obviously, Lieh Yuanchen thought she wanted to see her parents.
