Love in Hancheng

Chapter 39 We are getting closer (1)
I didn't expect that Huo Lingsha would catch me and say something like this. The relationship between us seems to be much worse than a real friend, or maybe I can't accept such a person deep in my heart, so I never put her as a true friend.

And when Huo Lingsha's rare sad face was in front of me like this, I couldn't tell whether it was joy or worry for a while, so that when it fell into Huo Lingsha's eyes, I looked expressionless, with an extra indifferent.

"I'm sad and don't want to stay at home, but I don't know where to go!"

Huo Lingsha's expression was dazed and mournful, and her words seemed extremely lacklustre, her beautiful eyes were filled with thick water vapor, it made me feel unbelievable that she was like this, I thought she was as confident as Huo Lingsha And a perfect person, even if they are broken in love, they will pack themselves very well, and they will never show any vulnerability in front of others. Of course, in my perception, a woman like Huo Lingsha will never be broken in love .

"This is the first time I love someone wholeheartedly. Dongcheng has always treated me very well. Do you think I am not doing well enough?"

Huo Lingsha's sniffing sound sounded like a wronged princess with a pityful fragility, but the person she found was me, so naturally she couldn't hear the sincere comfort in the first place.

If it was Ye Xiaoran, I might try my best to make her happy, but when facing Huo Lingsha, I don't know what to say.

"Hua Nuan, can you sit with me, I really don't want to be alone, I'm afraid I'll go crazy."

Huo Lingsha's pleading made me unable to refuse, so I nodded and comforted me with an innocuous sentence: "Don't think so much, the more you get into the corner of your relationship, the more painful it will be."

Huo Lingsha didn't know if she would listen to what I said, but she just held my arm, looking listless, and wanted to find a place to sit while holding me.

Even though she and I were not as close as Ye Xiaoran, the situation made me accompany Huo Lingsha to a western restaurant that looked good.

"Just order whatever you want, you're welcome."

It was supposed to be lunch time, but after Huo Lingsha sat down, she only ordered wine, but did not order food. After the envoy helped her fill the glass, she had already picked it up unceremoniously. There was a lot of excuses The posture of drinking to relieve sorrow.

As if seeing my worry, Huo Lingsha showed a mischievous and capricious smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm actually quite good at drinking. This is just ordinary sweet wine, I can't get drunk."

After finishing speaking, she drank gulply, with a chic and elegant appearance, and seemed to have regained her former self-confidence, but there was a faint sadness written in her brows and eyes. Huo Lingsha suddenly looked at me with her cheeks on her cheeks, as if she was about to cry the next moment.

"In the eyes of outsiders, we are talented and beautiful. We are a match made in heaven. We are rightly matched. Even I am lucky to meet Han Dongcheng!"

Huo Lingsha didn't seem to care whether I was listening or not, but after she finished speaking, she waved her hand to signal the waiter standing over there not to approach, and then poured herself a drink.

When the steak I ordered came out, Huo Lingsha had already drunk most of the bottle.

"Why don't you have something to eat?"

I still unconsciously expressed my concern. Huo Lingsha's grievance and nostalgia made me feel a little uncomfortable. I don't know whether to blame Han Dongcheng for 'transferring love' or lament Huo Lingsha's Infatuation does not regret.

Huo Lingsha shook her head, but suddenly looked at me, and said solemnly: "Hua Nuan, can you help me?"

I was taken aback by Huo Lingsha's sudden firm and bright eyes, but I somewhat understood her intentions.

Huo Lingsha hasn't given up on Han Dongcheng yet, is she begging me to help her recover Han Dongcheng?

And how can I help with such a thing.

I looked at Huo Lingsha and was speechless for a while, until Huo Lingsha's delicate eyebrows were frowned, and there was a strange sharpness in his eyes looking at me.

"Dongcheng was very kind to me at first, but after that time, after your wedding with Ji Mingchuan, he seemed to be a different person, you know? He was ready to meet my mother and my grandfather, Then we talked about our wedding, but that day, he didn’t know what happened, and he slowly turned cold towards me, Hua Nuan, you’ve been at Han’s house for so long, I can’t find someone else, can you help me? , Did Dongcheng already have someone he likes, or did the person he like come back that day?"

I looked at Huo Lingsha in surprise, her eyes were full of anticipation, obviously she didn't know the entanglements between me and Han Dongcheng, so I couldn't help feeling a little unnatural.

Could it be that Han Dongcheng was shaken when he found out that I was 'I'm Allure'?
I remember getting up in the middle of the night and him standing in the hallway, and I remember venting my displeasure at that time.

I still remember Han Dongcheng's words and eyes that prevented me from marrying Ji Mingchuan.

Did Han Dongcheng 'change his mind' from that time on?Or did he never like Huo Lingsha?It's like I've never liked Ji Mingchuan.

Everything is abnormal interest?
Raising my eyes, I met Huo Lingsha's calm eyes that seemed to have penetrated my thoughts. I couldn't help but startled, and became a little flustered.

"Did you know that there is someone you like in Dongcheng?"

Huo Lingsha looked at me with a serious and eager tone, as if pinning all her hopes on me, I couldn't help but tighten my heart, and showed a helpless smile.

"I have nothing to do with him!"

But he didn't deny whether Han Dongcheng had someone he liked. Sure enough, Huo Lingsha's originally beautiful face had an extra gloomy element.

"I just want to know what kind of woman I lost to. Hua Nuan, the woman Dongcheng likes must be better and more perfect than me, right?"

Across the table, Huo Lingsha suddenly grabbed my hand, feeling inexplicably nervous, revealing a trace of unwillingness, which made my hand ache a bit.

Huo Lingsha's words made me speechless for a while, and at the same time, I was even more unable to answer her words.

I am naturally not as good as Huo Lingsha, nor as perfect as Huo Lingsha. Even six years ago, in Han Dongcheng's eyes, I was probably just an ugly duckling who didn't know much about the world.

Facing Huo Lingsha's persistent questioning, I couldn't deal with it indifferently to the point where it had nothing to do with me.

"I don't know about this!"

I don't know what I'm like in Han Dongcheng's heart, I only know that when he held my hand so domineeringly, and when he made a reversal stronger than Land Rover, I was a little flustered and couldn't believe it.

"really?"

Huo Lingsha's voice was a little weak, and there was even a hint of disdain in it, but she couldn't find the contemptuous emotion after careful identification. She let go of my hand, continued to pour the wine, and continued to gulp down stand up.

I regretted going out today. If I had known earlier, I might as well spend this weekend with the pile of food that Land Rover sent me.

"You know, right? You know who Dongcheng likes, and it's not convenient for you to say, is that person you~"

After Huo Lingsha drank a cup violently, her indomitable words and aggressive manner came directly, her bright eyes seemed sharp and certain, and the faint smile on the corner of her lips seemed unattainable The arrogance of her, as if she knew the answer to the ridicule in her playful eyes, made my heart go cold, and I faintly felt that this sad and pitiful woman in front of me was just a weak disguise, but came directly at me.

Did Huo Lingsha know that the person I like is Han Dongcheng? Did Huo Lingsha already know Han Dongcheng's confession to me?

I still remember what Han Dongcheng said, wait for him for a week, he said that he doesn't want Huo Lingsha to be Liang Yuyou again.

He said that the development of the north of the city is closely related to the Huo family, and Han Qinan's 30 years of hard work are tied to it.

"I think you may have misunderstood. I have nothing to do with Han Dongcheng. He hates me, and I don't like him either. Otherwise, I wouldn't marry Ji Mingchuan."

When I explained it like this, I was somewhat nervous, but at the same time, I kept a completely calm face, denying the possibility that Huo Lingsha thought.

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about your good friend, Ye Xiaoran, is that her?"

No matter how natural Huo Lingsha's words turned, I still felt her outspoken temptation and subtle sharpness, which reminded me of the madness that Liang Yuyou would rather die to prevent Ji Mingchuan from marrying me.

"I remember that they met at the wedding that day, and Dongcheng also talked to her. She seems to be the effective general manager of Dongcheng."

Huo Lingsha suddenly became weak, with a hint of frustration, the original sharp eyes were long gone, replaced by a kind of sad and bewildered fragility.

"Stop thinking about it, it will only make yourself more and more painful, why don't you eat something and go back. If you drink too much, you will have a headache!"

I don't want to continue sitting like this with Huo Lingsha, I just want to end the meal as soon as possible.

But Huo Lingsha refused indifferently:

"It's better if you're drunk. When you're drunk, you can forget about the pain."

She continued to drink, her face was already flushed, she was obviously drunk, she put the glass aside suddenly, and said with a smile on her face: "My mobile phone is out of battery, can you lend me your mobile phone?"

Huo Lingsha's request was not particularly abrupt, but just in case I didn't believe it, she took out her mobile phone and shook it in front of me. The body and the case were a little detached, as if it had been dropped.

I didn't say much when I saw this, and took out my mobile phone readily.

When her eyes fell on my mobile phone, she suddenly showed a look of ridicule, but it disappeared quickly. After looking down at the mobile phone, she seemed listless and took another sip of wine , just entered the number one by one.

I was about to get up and go to the bathroom, but Huo Lingsha raised her eyes suddenly, and said with a hint of expectation: "Do you think Dongcheng will find me troublesome?"

The pretty face seemed a little dazed and self-willed, I was startled, and felt a different kind of self-consciousness, what would happen if Huo Lingsha used my mobile phone to call Han Dongcheng like this?

When Huo Lingsha raised her eyes to look at me, I felt that when she looked at me with a smile, the smile that didn't reach the corners of her eyes seemed to see through my heart, with a taste of irony that was ready to spare.

"You called Han Dongcheng?"

I had a slightly surprised tone, and when I looked at Huo Lingsha, she seemed to have a brighter smile: "Even if I can't be a lover, Dong Cheng is still the most considerate friend to me."

Huo Lingsha's tone was slightly sad, but she stuck her phone to her ear, and while she was waiting for Han Dongcheng, her eyes fell on my face.

I know that it is impossible to ask Huo Lingsha for a mobile phone at this time, and I also know that Han Dongcheng may answer the phone in the next moment.

I lowered my head, instead of meeting Huo Lingsha's gaze, I became a spoonful of sweet soup and drank it in a calm and elegant manner.

Huo Lingsha didn't speak all the time, I lowered my head to drink the soup, Han Dongcheng's voice was not high, but it still came over.

"Hua Nuan? I'm in a meeting!"

Han Dongcheng's voice was not particularly high-pitched, but his tone of explaining the itinerary made me startled, so that the movements of my hands were a little slower.

"Is something wrong?"

Huo Lingsha didn't speak, Han Dongcheng asked again, his low voice seemed to be unable to hear any joyful emotions, I was a little worried, he regarded Huo Lingsha as me, but I looked up and looked at Huo Lingsha still staring at me. When he looked at me, he smiled faintly: "Why don't you talk? Han Dongcheng doesn't want to see me, be careful when he hangs up the phone."

I reminded Huo Lingsha indifferently, causing a bitter smile to appear on Huo Lingsha's face, and she lowered her head, with a slightly drunken tone that contained some coquettish elements.

"Dongcheng, it's me. Did I disturb you again? I didn't mean it."

Han Dongcheng was silent and didn't speak. I was still drinking the soup, but my movements were a little slower.

Seeing this, Huo Lingsha simply stood up, got up and walked towards the bathroom, talking on the phone while walking.

"Are you angry? My phone is broken, and I just met Hua Nuan..."

The voice that is fading away, the playful murmur with coquettishness, and the tone of a little drunk, like a child intoxicated with happiness, if Han Dongcheng and Huo Lingsha hadn't both admitted to breaking up with each other, just looking at each other like this , why don't I think too much about it.

I don't know what I said, Huo Lingsha walked back with my phone after nearly 10 minutes, with a bright and sad smile on her face.

"Dong Cheng treated me so well, so good that I was reluctant to let him go, so good that I thought we never said goodbye."

Huo Lingsha picked up the cup again and drank again, there seemed to be tears in her eyes, and I looked at her, not knowing what to say.

"You said, I beg him, will we not be separated?"

Huo Lingsha looked at me with hope in her steamy eyes, and her questioning tone was so sincere.

Huo Lingsha, who is so expensive and beautiful, and her humble attitude in front of love, made me believe that she might have a deep-rooted love for Han Dongcheng, just like I used to worry about gains and losses.

It's just that if she asked like that, I couldn't comfort her from the bottom of my heart.

"Feelings are not meant to be forced, but if he doesn't let you go completely, maybe if you work hard, you will have a chance!"

Of course my words are not from the bottom of my heart, but I am not too perfunctory, but just discussing the facts. If Han Dongcheng still has such affection for Huo Lingsha, maybe there is still a chance.

Thinking about it this way, I'm a little glad that I wasn't disturbed by Han Dongcheng's sudden approach.

My words didn't seem to have much effect, Huo Lingsha silently pinched the cup, and suddenly laughed.

"In any case, he will stop work and come right away. I am still very happy. Maybe I shouldn't be greedy. I always think that he is the one who will accompany me for the rest of my life."

Huo Lingsha flicked her hair, and her appearance became more chic. When I was thinking about finding an excuse to leave, Huo Lingsha quickly took out the small mirror and got up nervously.

"I'm going to touch up my makeup."

Huo Lingsha left in a hurry, I was a little surprised at her appearance as a confidant, but I also understood her mood, but I didn't expect Han Dongcheng to come so soon.

The weather is already hot, Han Dongcheng looks chic and unrestrained in his suit, his black shirt makes him look so stern and upright, his impeccable face naturally attracts the attention of everyone who sees him, Including when I see him, I also feel pleasing to the eye, but Han Dongcheng's face doesn't seem to be very good.

"How are you with her?"

Han Dongcheng frowned his high eyebrows, and asked straight to the point, as if he was dissatisfied. Those eyes that always seemed to show me sarcasm and indifference towards me in the past, were filled with a touch of care.

"I happened to meet! Let's have something to eat together."

I answered innocuously, but Han Dongcheng frowned even tighter and said, "I thought it was you!"

I was taken aback by what he said, but I immediately understood that what he said must have seen my mobile phone number, if it wasn't for me to call, he would be a little disappointed.

I looked at Han Dongcheng for a while, not knowing what to say.

"Don't blame Huanuan, Dongcheng, my phone ran out of battery, so I borrowed her phone to call. Are you disappointed to hear my voice?"

Huo Lingsha looked nervous, like a little girl who might get hurt at any time, but when Han Dongcheng saw her walking from behind, his face was very calm.

"It's not disappointment, it's some surprise."

When Han Dongcheng said that, he could faintly feel his not-so-good emotions. When his gaze passed over Huo Lingsha, a touch of embarrassment and guilt flashed across the latter's face.

"I know, I shouldn't come to you casually like this again, but, Dong Cheng, can't we still be friends?"

If love comes to an end, how many people can still be friends?

I'm on the side, feeling somewhat redundant. I can understand Huo Lingsha's desire to bring Han Dongcheng back. My presence doesn't seem to be needed here.

"I'm full, and I have an appointment with Ye Xiaoran, you guys talk, I'll go first!"

When I finished speaking and was about to get up and leave, Huo Lingsha and Han Dongcheng turned their eyes away at the same time, and they all stared at me. I seemed to see a faint unstoppable tension in Han Dongcheng's sharp eyes.

Compared with the indifference he showed the previous few times, Han Dongcheng seemed a little emotional.

Noticing Huo Lingsha's drunken demeanor, when his eyes moved from Han Dongcheng's face to mine, I showed a faint smile.

"Hua Nuan was forced to come here by me, Dongcheng, don't be angry with her~"

Huo Lingsha's words caused Han Dongcheng's eyes to flash a cold light. When she glanced at Huo Lingsha, she didn't continue talking, but instead looked guilty that she had done something wrong.

"He likes to keep a straight face. I'm used to it. Don't be nervous. I really have an appointment with Ye Xiaoran. I have to go."

When I smiled and rescued Huo Lingsha like this, I saw the astonishment flashing in Han Dongcheng's eyes, but I still didn't care, picked up my handbag, packed my phone, got up and was about to leave.

I didn't pay attention to Han Dongcheng's reaction behind me, I just left calmly and indifferently, until I walked out of the western restaurant, turned a corner by the way, and stopped a taxi, I was relieved.

Naturally, I didn't go to Ye Xiaoran, but told the driver the address immediately.

But after the car didn't drive very far, the phone rang. It was Han Dongcheng's phone, and it rang over and over again tirelessly, as if I didn't answer or give up.

Picking up the phone, I heard Han Dongcheng's voice, a little dissatisfied and slightly angry.

"Qiu Huanuan, have you really let go of the relationship of the past six years?"

Han Dongcheng's words made me unable to answer for a while.

"You don't care who I'm with anymore?"
