C447 A Smile Obliterates Grudges

"Tell me, in his eyes, what do I count as?" Huo Chenglieh looked at Soong Shiyan with a trace of disappointment and resentment in his eyes. He said with a wry smile, "Actually, there are many times when I would rather not be born back then. "However, everyone felt that you should be grateful to your parents for giving birth to you. However, they had never asked me if I was willing to give birth to you."

Soong Shiyan couldn't help but sigh when she heard Huo Mingyang's sorrowful tone and saw the bitterness in his eyes. The world said that motherly love was great, but she felt that it wasn't so.

Ye Faang was trying to use the child in her belly to coerce her father and force her mother to live the life of a rich family that she had dreamed of. Therefore, she secretly gave birth to Yan Duoya and even abandoned her in the orphanage, before leaving. Chiang Shuru, on the other hand, was no different. In order to protect her hard-earned life, Chiang Shuru had given birth to Huo Mingyang. She treated him as a pawn that was fighting for its favor, making him feel extremely disgusted from the Huo Family.

And the result? Ye Faang and Chiang Shuru were punished, Yan Duoya went astray, took countless lives, was punished in prison, and never repented. Huo Mingyang, on the other hand, had been wrong in the beginning, but now, he had woken up. It was just that the wound in his heart might never recover.

"Since you're already like this, I'd be too cold if I didn't agree to your request. Go sit at the bar, I'll get you some wine." Soong Shiyan shook her head helplessly and said to Huo Mingyang.

Hearing that, Huo Mingyang's face warmed up a little. He looked after Soong Shiyan, sat up, and walked towards the bar with a smile.

"As the saying goes, a single drunk person can relieve a thousand worries – I think this bottle of vodka should be the most accurate one in the wine shelves. Here, drink!" Soong Shiyan placed an exquisite bottle on the table with a "Pa" sound and said to Huo Mingyang.

"Jing Sung, are you going to let me hold the bottle and drink? No matter what, you still have to bring me a glass of wine and some side dishes, right? " Huo Mingyang opened the bottle but was in no hurry to drink.

"How shameless of you to ask so much for a drink at someone else's house! Huo Mingyang!" Soong Shiyan looked at Huo Mingyang with disdain. However, in the end, she still walked over to the cabinet at the side.

She opened the cabinet door and was about to grab a cup when she heard Huo Mingyang casually say from the bar, "Jing Sung, it's so boring for me to drink alone. Come and drink with me …"

"I'm not like you. I'm not in a good mood — and besides, what are you drinking in the middle of the day?"

Soong Shiyan picked up a glass of wine and was about to walk towards the bar where Huo Mingyang was, but she heard him continue, "Although you are still in a good mood, but I'm guessing that because of Huo Mingshen, you are also in a mess right now. Come and drink with me." Wu Tie greeted Soong Shiyan with a smile.

Hearing that, Soong Shiyan was conflicted for a moment. She then took out a wine cup from the cabinet, walked to the bar and sat in front of Huo Mingyang.

Huo Mingyang picked up the wine bottle and poured a glass of wine for Soong Shiyan and himself. Then he put down the bottle, picked up the glass and clinked his glass with Soong Shiyan, and said with a smile, "Your servant saw me and ran off.

With that, Huo Mingyang raised his head and finished the wine in his cup in one gulp.

Seeing this, Soong Shiyan no longer hesitated and gulped down the cup. As the liquid slowly flowed down her throat, she felt a burning sensation in her mouth and throat. Her face began to heat up, but her consciousness became increasingly clear.

Just as Huo Mingyang was about to pour the wine, two servants walked over from the side. Each of them carried two plates and came to the bar.

"Miss, this is the side dish we prepared for you — drinking wine at a fast rate is of no use to your body. Miss, don't be greedy." The servant put down the plate and said to Soong Shiyan with a respectful smile. Afterwards, the two of them quickly left the place.

Looking at the servants' backs, Soong Shiyan shook her head helplessly.

Huo Mingyang was also full of smiles as he leisurely said, "Jing Sung, look, even your servant thinks that there's something between us. Tell me, why don't we just form a pair?"

Hearing that, Soong Shiyan rolled her eyes at Huo Mingyang — — This Huo Mingyang, seeing that she sympathized with him and drank with him, he was actually able to say such words with a face full of shame.

"Huo Mingyang, looking at City C, I wonder how many women want to be with you, why are you worried about your marriage? As for me? I don't believe in love anymore. Perhaps, I will be alone in this life. " Soong Shiyan said faintly.

What she said was indeed true. Ever since her accident, she had decided that she wouldn't be tempted by anyone else – because women who fell in love had a negative IQ, and she would never let anyone else have the chance to betray her.

Hearing this, Huo Mingyang smiled and didn't say anything else. Those women wanted to be with him. How could he not know what they were after?

How could he not know that Soong Shiyan actually liked Huo Mingshen? It was just that she didn't know. That was why she said such a disrespectful thing.

However, no matter what, he would never let Huo Mingshen have Soong Shiyan — not only because he liked Soong Shiyan, but more importantly, he would never lose to Huo Mingshen again!

"Jing Sung, even if I can't become your partner, I hope that I can become your best friend-- My only hope is that you won't be with Huo Mingshen." Huo Mingyang hesitated for a while before speaking to Soong Shiyan.

If he could become her friend, then he could at least stay by her side and protect her. No matter who she chose in the end, he would bless her with a smile. However, that person couldn't be Huo Mingshen!

Soong Shiyan smiled and looked at Huo Mingyang. After a long time, she finally opened her mouth and said, "Hearing your words, I suddenly have a feeling that the world has changed."

"Why?" Hearing that, Huo Mingyang asked curiously.

"I still remember the first time we met in Huo Family, when we fought against each other. "The world has changed. What I didn't expect is that we would be 'united by a common enemy'. I didn't expect that we would actually become friends." Soong Shiyan said with a serious expression.0

"At that time, I was in the wrong. But now, I regret it as well – after all these years, I have missed too many things. Compared to those things, what is wealth? " Huo Mingyang said as if a burden had been lifted off his shoulders, "So, I have decided, I want to leave Huo Family completely."

Hearing that, a trace of admiration appeared in Soong Shiyan's eyes as she looked at Huo Mingyang.

"Come, cheers!" Soong Shiyan raised her glass and said to Huo Mingyang with a smile.

"Alright, cheers!" Huo Mingyang smiled as if he really put it down. He finished the cup in one gulp and his face flushed a little.
