C308 His Heart Ached
Soong Shiyan followed Huo Mingshen and the bodyguard out of the restaurant and followed them.
"Halt — Halt!" Soong Shiyan shouted loudly as she ran.
Huo Mingshen and his bodyguards were naturally not so stupid as to stop their running pace.
Soong Shiyan chased after him, her high heels coming into contact with the cracks in the ground. In an instant, she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
"Hiss — —" Soong Shiyan's palm had been grinded against the ground, causing blood to seep out. The pain made her gasp deeply as she collapsed.
Huo Mingshen couldn't help but stop when he heard the movement behind him. When he turned around, he saw Soong Shiyan sitting on the ground, blood flowing out of her palms. Seeing this, he couldn't help but walk towards Soong Shiyan.
When Soong Shiyan saw Huo Mingshen walking towards her, she had mixed feelings — who exactly was this man? Why did he turn around and walk back after seeing him fall?
Soong Shiyan raised her head and looked at Huo Mingshen pitifully. If this man really cared about her that much, then he wouldn't just sit there and watch her die, right?
When the bodyguard saw Huo Mingshen running away, he stopped running. He turned around and saw Huo Mingshen walking towards Soong Shiyan step by step. Seeing this, the bodyguard sighed in his heart and then also ran towards Huo Mingshen.
Just when Huo Mingshen was about to walk in front of Soong Shiyan, the bodyguard grabbed Huo Mingshen's arm and whispered to him: "Young Master, don't tell me you still want to help Miss Jing Sung right now?"
"Why not?" Huo Mingshen looked at his bodyguard and asked in confusion.
"Young Master, I can guarantee that as soon as you get close to Miss Jing Sung, you'll lose your sanity. When that happens, it'll be a matter of minutes before Miss Jing Sung sees your face." The bodyguard looked at Huo Mingshen and muttered.
Hearing that, Huo Mingshen's footsteps stopped. He'd promised the lordmaster that he wouldn't reveal his identity before he was allowed to, or else the lordmaster would hide Soong Shiyan and he'd never be able to find her.
Thinking of this, Huo Mingshen held his hands tightly. Looking at Soong Shiyan's pitiful gaze, he steeled his heart and stopped moving forward.
Soong Shiyan noticed that Huo Mingshen had stopped walking. She was a bit indignant in her heart — what was going on with this man? Why did he stop halfway?
Soong Shiyan gritted her teeth and endured the pain from her palms as she quickly stood up with her hands on the ground. The next moment, she quickly took off her pair of high heels and rushed towards Huo Mingshen.
Seeing this, Huo Mingyang knew that Soong Shiyan wasn't hurt so he turned around and followed the bodyguard towards the distance.
A black car stopped at the side of the road. The driver rolled down the window and shouted at Huo Mingshen, "Young Master, get in!"
Hearing that, Huo Mingshen and the bodyguard quickly ran to the roadside, opened the car door and got in. By the time Soong Shiyan limped after her, the car was already far away.
Soong Shiyan stomped her feet in anger as she watched the car gradually disappear into the distance. Damn it! If she had known earlier, she would have let Tiankui follow them out. This way, the man had no chance to escape!
After standing by the side of the road for a while, Soong Shiyan remembered that her things were still in the dining room, so she limped back barefoot. Not far, she saw Huo Mingyang running towards her with her bag in one hand and her shoes in the other.
The moment Soong Shiyan saw Huo Mingyang, for some reason, she had mixed feelings. Then, she stood on the spot and didn't walk any further, waiting for Huo Mingyang to reach her.
"Jing Sung, what happened just now?" Huo Mingyang asked in confusion as he arrived in front of Soong Shiyan while panting heavily.
"I found out that this person was watching me." Soong Shiyan said in a low voice.
Hearing that, a sliver of worry appeared in Huo Mingyang's eyes, and he said: "Surveillance? "Jing Sung, why are they watching you?"
Soong Shiyan rolled her eyes at Huo Mingyang and said, "If I knew why, would I still chase after them?"
Hearing that, Huo Mingyang smiled embarrassedly. Then, he helped Soong Shiyan to walk to the flowerbed on the side and sat her down.
He handed her Soong Shiyan's bag and squatted down to help her put on her shoes. Before putting on Soong Shiyan's shoes, he even took out the handkerchief in his pocket and carefully wiped the dust off Soong Shiyan's feet.
Seeing Huo Mingyang's meticulous actions, Soong Shiyan felt upset. She looked at Huo Mingyang and said coldly, "I'll do it myself." She bent down to put on her shoes.
"I'll do it, I'll do it." After saying that, Huo Mingyang helped Soong Shiyan to put on her shoes.
Only after putting on Soong Shiyan's shoes did Huo Mingyang see the wound on her palm.0
"Jing Sung, wait a moment." Saying that, Huo Mingyang ran off to the side.
Seeing Huo Mingyang walk away, Soong Shiyan took her phone out of her bag and dialed Tiankui's number.
"The mysterious man appeared, but I let him escape from my hands once again. Go check his license plate and see if you can find anything. "His license plate number is …" Soong Shiyan's voice carried a trace of coldness. Who exactly is this mysterious man? Just now, she had heard his bodyguard address him as' Young Master '. Then, just which family did he belong to?
When Huo Mingyang came back, he had some medicine in his hand. He sat down next to Soong Shiyan, took out the alcohol, and disinfected her wound. Then he took out a stick of ointment and applied it to Soong Shiyan's wound. Seeing how Soong Shiyan was frowning but not saying a word, he smiled and said to her, "Jing Sung, you're much stronger than any other woman I've ever met."
Hearing this, a wry smile surfaced on Soong Shiyan's face. She raised her head to look at the sky, her gaze somewhat empty. After a long while, she finally spoke in a faint voice, "After suffering such pain for thousands of times, what does this small wound count for?"
Seeing the pain in Soong Shiyan's eyes, Huo Mingyang's heart also became heavy. He had always thought that Jing Sung was just a daughter of an ordinary family, living an ordinary life. However, she never would have thought that Jing Sung's past seemed to be somewhat tragic! If Jing Sung hadn't brought this up on her own accord, he would never have imagined that Jing Sung's arrogance concealed so many things of her past.
Huo Mingyang didn't pursue Soong Shiyan's past further because he didn't want to expose her scars again.
"Second Young Master!" A black car was parked by the side of the road. The driver rolled down the window, looked at Huo Mingyang beside the flowerbed and shouted.
Soong Shiyan came back to her senses. She looked at the driver and then said to Huo Mingyang coldly, "Second Young Master Huo, your driver has arrived. Take your time!"
Then, before Huo Mingyang could reply, Soong Shiyan stood up and limped out of the room.
Huo Mingyang looked at Soong Shiyan's proud and aloof back, his heart was going through hundreds of twists and turns.
