C47 (1/2)
Su Nuan held onto the slip of paper, and could not help but find it funny.
Not only did that person have a strange way to strike up a conversation, even the way to contact him was also very difficult to refuse.
She placed the note back into her bag and left with Two Small Ones. When the car drove out of the car park, she saw Huo Yanshen being surrounded by reporters.
Facing so many short spears and cannons, Huo Yanshen's cold face was unperturbed, it was impossible to tell how much pain she had suffered just now.
When Su Nuan arrived home, Two Small Ones went to take a nap.
She added the WeChat message, intending to return the money to the person. If that person wanted to take advantage of the situation, she could only ignore him.
She put down her cell phone and went back to her work in the study.
Su Nuan was busy all the way until evening.
Only then did she leave the study to prepare dinner.
The dishes were quickly ready.
When Huo Yanshen came, he brought a cake.
”Two Small Ones will start school tomorrow to celebrate.”
Su Nuan reached out to grab the cake, only, she accidentally touched his fingers, causing her body to feel like she was being electrocuted.
She quickly put the cake into the fridge, along with letting the cold air inside the fridge cool her abnormal self.
With Huo Yanshen here, Two Small Ones didn't even have to choose between the dishes.
He ate even faster than a rabbit. After eating, he dragged his brother who hadn't finished his own food and rushed into the children's room, creating a chance for his father's mother to be alone.
”Ask me what happened today.” Huo Yanshen suddenly asked.
Su Nuan put down the Red Braised Meat that he was about to put in his mouth, ”It seems... ”Isn't that necessary?”
Huo Yanshen's hand that was holding onto the chopsticks suddenly froze, ”Su Nuan, you haven't put that matter in your heart all along?”
Su Nuan's heart immediately skipped a beat. She knew that he was referring to the matter of going with him to get his identity card and making him the Two Small Ones's father.
Even though he didn't mention it after he made it clear last time.
However, she could feel that he was silently treating her well, and Two Small Ones well, so she tried her best to maintain a careful balance, so as to not let her guard down.
When he suddenly mentioned it today, she discovered that her state of mind seemed to be very different from her resolute and decisive attitude from before.
Su Nuan immediately recited it countless times in his heart, ”This is wrong!”
”Mr. Huo …”
”Alright, I understand.” Before Su Nuan could finish his sentence, Huo Yanshen had already replied her with an expressionless face.
Su Nuan heaved a sigh of relief, ”If you don't mind, we can get along quite well as friends. It's not necessarily true that there can only be love between men and women, right?”
Huo Yanshen frowned, the complex emotions in his eyes was something even he himself could not figure out.
He did not make a sound, causing Su Nuan to turn embarrassment into appetite and started to eat big mouthfuls.
After finishing his meal, Huo Yanshen cleaned up the table and washed the dishes.
Unknowingly, the two of them had reached a tacit understanding of each other.
The next day.
Su Nuan sent the Two Small Ones to the school bus, and only after the school bus disappeared without a trace did she turn around and return home.
While she was waiting for the elevator, her cell phone suddenly rang.
The person had accepted her friend request and sent her two smiling emojis.
Su Nuan turned his head and said, ”The AA is not fair, you can pay your own bill.”
”My ability can only pay AA, don't deprive me of the right to treat a 'nephew' to a meal.”
Su Nuan was speechless, he closed his phone and ignored the man.
After working at home for the whole day, when she went out to pick up Two Small Ones in the afternoon, she found a courier bag placed beside the door. The address and recipient were all hers, but the one from the other party was blank.
Seeing that he still had some time, Su Nuan opened the delivery bag at the door.
There was only one photo.
When she saw the contents of the photo, her eyes widened.
The girl in the photo had a tender expression as she was hugged by Huo Yanshen from the back, performing the classic Titanic's actions.
”Huo Yanshen? How could it be him? ”
Both of Su Nuan's legs went weak as he leaned against the wall and stared at the photo in his hands out of focus.
This was the first time she received a photo of her in the past, but she never thought that she would be entangled with Huo Yanshen.
But since he knew her past, why didn't he say anything? Shaking her head when she asked?
All of them caused Su Nuan's head to hurt from the pressure.
The door opposite them suddenly opened, and Huo Yanshen appeared out of nowhere. Her deep eyes fell on Su Nuan's body, as if she was staring at a cold and hot ray of light.
Su Nuan held the photo, ”Do we know each other when we get there?”
Huo Yanshen's cold eyes moved, ”No, I don't.”
”Don't know him?” Su Nuan let out a cold laugh, then took a few steps forward and fiercely threw the picture in his hand onto the ground, ”How do you explain why I am in this picture? How long more do you want to lie to me? ”
Huo Yanshen held the photo, looked at the two people who didn't have any sort of abnormal feelings, and his cold eyes became even colder.
”I just want to know, if we used to know each other, why do you deny it? If you deny it, then why are you pestering me? ”
Huo Yanshen remained silent, his gaze landing on the delivery bag in Su Nuan's hands.
”Also, are you the father of the Two Small Ones?” When Su Nuan asked this question, the emotions in his eyes were extremely complicated, and a trace of hope appeared.
Huo Yanshen's body stiffened, her lips were thin and cold, but she was still unable to open them.
”Alright, if you don't want to tell me, I can check for myself.”
Su Nuan entered the elevator and the moment the elevator door closed, she only saw Huo Yanshen turn around and return to his room.
Her heart felt as if it had been poked by something, and a sour feeling suffused her heart.
