C437 War Between Men
"Miss, the guard just called and said that Young Master Huo Family, Huo Mingshen, is at the entrance of the house. He insisted on coming in to see you." The servant hurried back to Soong Shiyan's room and told her.
Hearing this, Soong Shiyan frowned. Earlier, Tiankui had said that he had already come here once before, but he just hadn't been able to come in. Now, perhaps because he saw Huo Mingyang enter Soong Family Big House, he also wanted to follow him in.
"Go and tell the security guards that no matter what, they mustn't let him in. Also, if this Huo Mingshen wants to enter Soong Family Great House in the future, he is not allowed to enter, much less notify me." Soong Shiyan said to the servant.
When the servant heard this, he looked troubled. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said to Soong Shiyan, "But, Miss, the security guard at the door just now complained to me, saying that he was afraid of offending Huo Mingshen. In the future …"
Huo Mingyang was on the side and thought for a moment after hearing what the servant said to Soong Shiyan. He then said to Soong Shiyan, "Jing Sung, why don't you let him in?"
Hearing that, Soong Shiyan's expression immediately darkened. She looked at Huo Mingyang and coldly said, "Huo Mingyang, since when did you start speaking up for Huo Mingshen? If I remember correctly, the two of you shouldn't be the kind of relationship that can help each other speak up, right? "
"Letting him come in naturally has another purpose," Huo Mingyang leisurely said, "Didn't you want Huo Mingshen to give up on you? I've told you before that I can help you — I'm willing to be used by you. "
When the servant standing at the side heard Huo Mingyang's confession, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh secretly. He looked at Soong Shiyan and Huo Mingyang with a trace of flirtatiousness in his eyes.
Soong Shiyan sat on the bed and noticed the servant's actions. Her face blushed a little, feeling helpless — — When the time came, who knew what the servants in the house would gossip about in private.
While Soong Shiyan was still lost in her thoughts, Huo Mingyang said to the servant, "Go tell the security guards at the entrance to let them in."
"Alright, I'll go now!" The servant already had a good impression of the security guard at the door. Seeing that they were worried about Huo Mingshen, he naturally became anxious. Now, seeing that Soong Shiyan and Huo Mingyang were having an ambiguous relationship, coupled with the fact that Huo Mingyang had also spoken, Soong Shiyan didn't object, and so she agreed without hesitation.
As Soong Shiyan watched the servant leave the room, she seemed to wake up from a dream. She looked at Huo Mingyang with anger, but gave up.
… ….
When Huo Mingshen arrived at Soong Shiyan's room, Huo Mingyang was feeding her an apple. He carefully peeled off the apple skin, then cut the apple into small pieces. He used a silver fork to place the sliced apple next to Soong Shiyan's mouth. With an affectionate smile, he said to Soong Shiyan, "Open your mouth, ah-"
Soong Shiyan caught sight of Huo Mingshen's silhouette in the doorway of the room. She forced a smile on her face and said sweetly to Huo Mingyang, "Mingyang, I want to eat apples. I don't need you to bother me so much. What if you accidentally cut your finger? "
Hearing that, Huo Mingyang smiled and caressed Soong Shiyan's hair, saying in a pampered tone, "So what if you cut your finger? As long as it's for you, even if it's going up the mountain of blades or down the sea of flames, I'll still be willing to — Eat! "
These words of his contained a trace of sincerity. However, Soong Shiyan was only putting on a show with him, so she naturally didn't take these words to heart.
Soong Shiyan smiled and obediently ate the apple that Huo Mingyang fed her.
"Mingyang, the apples you cut are so much better than the ones the servants cut. They're so sweet!" Soong Shiyan said to Huo Mingyang shyly with a silly look.
"Of course it's sweet. After all, this is an apple I peeled for you with love." Huo Mingyang laughed and said, "You lost so much blood from your injuries this time, so you should make up for it. "Look at your pale face, it's really heartbreaking."
Seeing Soong Shiyan and Huo Mingyang whispering to each other in the room, the whole room seemed to be filled with a sweet smell. Huo Mingshen clenched his fist with a sullen face.
He walked into the room and looked at Soong Shiyan. Annoyed, he said, "Soong Shiyan, I thought you were injured, but now you should be lying in bed recuperating. I didn't expect you to be in the mood to joke around with a man."
Soong Shiyan pretended to only just see Huo Mingshen. She said with some surprise, "Mr. Huo, you have come to this humble house. What can I do for you?"
"Jing Sung, he might have heard that you were injured, so he came to see you — as the saying goes, don't hit people who are smiling. Since they came to see you out of good intentions, you shouldn't have treated them like this! " Huo Mingyang sat at the side and said to Soong Shiyan with a smile. Although it was an educational tone, it was filled with schadenfreude.
Hearing that, Huo Mingshen looked at Huo Mingyang angrily. The coldness in his eyes seemed to be able to freeze someone to death.
However, Huo Mingyang didn't mind and continued to feed the apples to Soong Shiyan.
Seeing that, Huo Mingshen gnashed his teeth. He was furious in his heart, but he did not know what he should do. Actually, he regretted it the moment he said it.
Today, he came to see Soong Shiyan's injury, but he didn't expect to see Huo Mingyang feed her an apple and Soong Shiyan still enjoying herself so much. He couldn't hold back his jealousy and anger, so he said something that made him regret. It was a pity that they could no longer take back the spilled water they spilled.
Huo Mingshen thought that if he continued to be cowardly like this, then Huo Mingyang would really beat him to it. As for him and Soong Shiyan, they would probably never have another chance. He hesitated in his heart for a long time before finally being thick-skinned enough to pretend that what happened just now didn't happen. He moved the chair in front of the dressing table over and placed it beside Huo Mingyang. Then, he slowly sat down.
Soong Shiyan didn't expect Huo Mingshen to be so casual with her as if he was at home. She didn't say anything, but her face didn't look too good.
Sitting beside Huo Mingshen, Huo Mingyang's face darkened a little bit. This Huo Mingshen was really against him! The moment he got his first leg here, Huo Mingshen immediately rushed over. However, he definitely won't let Huo Mingshen be lucky enough to get away with it. Thinking about this, Huo Mingyang looked at Huo Mingshen and leisurely said, "Huo Mingshen, after all, you are here to visit. How can you come here empty-handed?"1
Hearing that, Huo Mingshen's face showed a hint of nervousness. When he had heard that Soong Shiyan had been shot and injured, he had rushed over in a hurry. How could he have had the time to prepare anything? Although he was unable to enter Soong Family Great House on his first trip, he had always been worried about Soong Shiyan's situation, so he did not think about it. Later on, when he heard that Huo Mingyang had entered Soong Family Hall, he was both angry and anxious. He busied himself with going out, so how could he still have the mind to prepare?
"What about you? What did you bring back? " Huo Mingshen looked at Huo Mingyang with a cold expression and asked.
"Here, this is what I brought!" Huo Mingyang pointed at the rose on the bedside table and said proudly.
Seeing that, Huo Mingshen sneered, and said leisurely: "Don't you know? "Jing Sung doesn't like red roses — what she likes is …"
"Who said I don't like red roses?" Soong Shiyan interrupted Huo Mingshen and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"Jing Sung, didn't you dislike red roses in the past?" Huo Mingshen looked at Soong Shiyan and said in disbelief.
"I didn't really like red roses before, but now I do — because Mingyang gave it to me. I like it even if he gives me a bunch of dogtail grass. " After saying that, Soong Shiyan looked at Huo Mingyang shyly, her cheeks blushing.
Huo Mingyang was smart. After hearing Soong Shiyan's words, he quickly followed up, "Jing Sung, what are you talking about? "Even if it is the entire world, it cannot match your position in my heart. I wish I could pick the stars in the sky and give them to you, so how can I give you weeds that grow by the roadside?"
"Mingyang …" Soong Shiyan said with a touched expression.
Looking at Soong Shiyan and Huo Mingyang's harmonious scene, Huo Mingshen could only feel a twinge of jealousy in his heart. He looked at Huo Mingyang with a trace of envy in his eyes. He felt that he couldn't give up just like that, so after a moment of hesitation, he said, "Jing Sung, I hope you can give me a fair chance — a chance to compete fairly with Huo Mingyang."
In front of Huo Mingyang, Huo Mingshen felt embarrassed to lower his voice so low. However, for Soong Shiyan's sake, all of this was worth it.
Soong Shiyan looked at the light in Huo Mingshen's eyes. It was as if she saw the mushrooms that accompanied her through her pain on the Gaoshun Island back then. For a moment, she was slightly stunned and was unable to recover from her shock.
Huo Mingyang looked at Soong Shiyan's dazed expression and thought he was in a bad mood. He pretended to have an uncomfortable throat and coughed twice to the side. Only then did Soong Shiyan come back to her senses.
Soong Shiyan's mood was a bit strange. She looked at Huo Mingshen and Huo Mingyang who were sitting at the side and said evasively, "I'm not feeling well. You guys can leave. I need to rest now."
Huo Mingyang had probably guessed Soong Shiyan's thoughts. After hearing Soong Shiyan's words, he decided not to stay any longer.
However, Huo Mingshen didn't know. He looked at Soong Shiyan, walked to her bedside with a worried face, looked at her carefully, and asked anxiously: "What's wrong with you? I'll call the doctor to take a look for you … "
Seeing this, Soong Shiyan helplessly sighed to herself.
"Jing Sung has already been seen by a doctor. She should be fine — she might be tired. Let's hurry up and go, we shouldn't disturb her rest here anymore." Huo Mingyang said to Huo Mingshen before Soong Shiyan opened her mouth to speak.
He understood Soong Shiyan's intentions, and quickly explained her excuse to Huo Mingshen.
Seeing that Soong Shiyan's face was indeed a bit pale, Huo Mingshen also felt his heart ache. He looked at Soong Shiyan with eyes filled with love, and said, "Jing Sung, you take care of yourself. Once you're better, I'll come see you again."
"Don't dilly-dally here, hurry up and leave!" Soong Shiyan deliberately yawned and said with some dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, Huo Mingshen did not stay any longer. He turned around three times and slowly left Soong Shiyan's room.
