Chapter 312: Yan Yan, you don’t know men very well
Yan XI: “I was always afraid that you were not confident enough and would close yourself off if you were hit. Now it seems that I was really overthinking.”
She had been mature since she was young, so she was always asked to take care of others.
Even though Huo Zi’ang was five or six years older than her, she still had to take care of the other party’s self-esteem.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a problem if she didn’t take care of him... After all, she wasn’t an adult, so she should have the right to be willful.
“Actually, I didn’t accept this engagement in the beginning, but something happened to the Huo family at that time. If the Xi family were to break off the engagement, it would be a bit unjust, and it would only make things worse for the Huo family,”Yan XI thought it would be good to make things clear now, “After all, with the protection of the engagement, the Huo family’s life would be better. It wouldn’t be good for the partners to add insult to injury.”
“I originally planned to break off the engagement after I’ve grown up. By then, you’d already become independent, and the Huo family would have recovered. It wouldn’t be too harmful.”
As for breaking off the engagement earlier, it wasn’t just because she was concerned about the cause of her illness, but because Yan XI realized... Huo Zi’ang seemed to be relying too much on her.
The other party’s tone and attitude were filled with seduction. It was as if because of the existence of the engagement, those actions had become reasonable.
However, she was not even 14 years old yet, and the law restricted her ability to act in civil matters.
If Huo Ziang’s actions were to go one step further, it would be a crime.
Yan XI said, “You’re a mature adult and a public figure. It’s best not to mention anything about the engagement in the future. Perhaps it’s a romantic memory between adults, but if the person is a teenager under the age of 14, it’s not just a matter of morality.”
“Yan Yan!”Huo Ziang was embarrassed and angry.
He was more angry. How could she treat him like that?
After all, he had spent five years in a relationship, and he had never cheated at all. He was also trying his best to wait for her to grow up and become his bride.
How could his heart be tarnished like this?
“You were clearly not like this in the past. Why did you become so sharp after you left the hospital?”After Huo Ziang asked this question, he seemed to have found a reason and direction.
Chen Xiangxiang had said that people who had been sick for a long time were prone to mental illness and became aggressive.
This was how he felt after Yan Xi left the hospital. She was neither gentle nor considerate, and she even targeted and fussed over everything.
It was not that he had not heard of the tit-for-tat between her and Chen Xiangxiang.
“Did Xiangxiang say something to You? I saw her stop you from talking earlier.”Huo Ziang was a little unhappy, what happened that night was an accident. He would not look for Chen Xiangxiang again, so there was no need for her to do anything unnecessary.
“No matter what she said, don’t listen. The person I like has always been you. She knows that.”
Probably eager to prove himself, he reached out to grab Yan Xi’s reins. His movements were a little rough.
Although he would not feel bad if she fell off the horse, in order not to give her the slightest chance of being cheated, Yan Xi gave up the idea of riding away and letting the other party miss.
Huo Ziang held onto the reins and was delighted. Yan Xi was not really resisting him!
She must have been touched by his words. This was clearly a silver lining.
As for his temper... it was not a big deal. It was not like he could not be coaxed.
He quickly got up from his horse and wanted to jump onto Yan XI’s horse to ride with someone.
“Yan Yan...”
“I thought that respecting others was a basic virtue of a person. Yan Yan just made it very clear. Mr. Huo, please have some self-respect!”
Yan Xi was just about to get off the horse when she heard the voice. Her actions sped up and she jumped off the horse decisively.
After she landed, she quickly took a few steps back to create a safe distance. She raised her head and quickly locked onto the direction of the voice.
Chief Xie rode on his horse and looked over calmly. He was wearing a horse outfit that outlined his vigorous figure, making him look exceptionally heroic.
Compared to playing the violin, he was different in elegance and nobility. He was like a prince who had walked out of an ancient castle. The retro aristocratic aura was particularly strong.
Seeing Yan XI dismount, chief Xie also decisively dismounted. When their gazes met, Yan Xi decisively walked over to the other party.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop.”Xie Chang paused for a moment. His gaze fell on Yan XI, gentle and restrained. “I just heard from Xi Yan that you were here, so I wanted to look for you.”
He didn’t expect Huo Ziang to beat him to it.
He had originally planned to avoid her, but when she opened her mouth, she didn’t Say Anything Nice, and Yan Xi’s micro expression was obviously not right.
It was better to stay and observe for a while. After all, it was not polite to let a girl get along with a man who wanted to have an affair.
Fortunately, he stayed.
Yan XI said, “It’s fine. It’s not something private anyway. It’s fine if someone hears it.”
Her attitude was very obvious. Any normal person would understand what she meant.
She was not afraid of being heard at all.
Xie changze said, “Sit on my horse. I’ll Hold Your Hand.”
Yan XI nodded and did not stand on ceremony with him. She turned around and sat on the horse.
Seeing that she was really going to leave just like that, Huo Zi’ang’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. “Yan Yan!”
Yan Xi turned around and looked at him. “Since you like to hold my horse, you can hold it. But please remember to return it.”
Although the horses in the racecourse were trained to be very docile, it was immoral to let the horse run wild. If something happened, it would cause trouble for others.
Huo Ziang was so angry that he was dizzy. “Yan Yan, we haven’t finished talking about what happened between us... And you trust him so much? You resist my approach, but he doesn’t have any ulterior motives.”
He sneered and said, “Do you really think that a pure friendship exists between a man and a woman? Can you guarantee that he doesn’t have any feelings for you? Yan Yan, you don’t know men very well.”
Xie changze’s breathing paused for a moment, then he turned to look at Huo Zi’ang.
Their eyes met, and Huo Zi’ang’s eyes looked at him with a high and mighty look.
Xie Changze’s eyes turned slightly cold. It was obvious that the other party wanted to drag him down with him.
However, he could not refute it. Even if he knew the other party’s true thoughts and kept a proper distance, he had already surpassed the boundaries of an ordinary classmate.
He turned to look at the person on the horse and said in a hoarse voice, “Yan Yan, i...”
His heart tightened slightly. In an instant, he was afraid to see the expression on the other party’s face whether it was disgust or resistance.
Yan XI said, “These are two different things. Please don’t change the topic and avoid conflict.”
She frowned and did not let the other party lead her astray. “What you did just now really offended me, and I said it clearly, so please stop.”
