Chapter 8

Startled, Huo Mian turned around . Standing not far behind them was her boyfriend, Ning Zhiyuan .

He seemed to have just come off his night shift . In his hand were Huo Mian's favorite snacks, grilled corn, and iced cola .

Huo Mian's mind finally snapped back into focus . Shoving Qin Chu away, she immediately explained, "Zhiyuan, it… it's not what it looks like . Please don't misunderstand . Let me explain, alright?"

"Fine . I'm listening, explain . " Surprisingly calm, Ning Zhiyuan glanced back at Huo Mian . Then, his gaze shifted towards Qin Chu, who was standing behind Huo Mian . His eyes were filled with animosity . Ning Zhiyuan knew Huo Mian very well and didn't think that she was the type to mess around behind his back . Huo Mian barely even used her WeChat, and her daily schedule was a bee-line between home and work . She was an honest woman and therefore, he believed that there had to be a reason behind the scene he had just witnessed .

Before Huo Mian made up her mind on how she should explain the situation to Ning Zhiyuan, Qin Chu suddenly opened his mouth and spoke, "Huo Mian… is mine . "

Upon hearing this, Huo Mian felt like her head was about to explode .

She never thought that something as cliché as this would ever happen to her . She suddenly felt like this was some kind of sick cosmic joke .


Having heard this declaration, the familiar tenderness drained away from Ning Zhiyuan's eyes, and it was replaced by an icy chill .

"Qin Chu, what the hell are you talking about?" Huo Mian was finally enraged .

"Mian . First, you tell me . Just who is he?" Ning Zhiyuan asked as he pointed at Qin Chu with a grim expression on his face .



"Zhiyuan, listen to me . He's just… my… high school classmate," Huo Mian's voice clearly wavered as she spoke . Technically, she wasn't lying . It was indeed true that Qin Chu was her classmate for three years back in high school .

"Huo Mian, we were more than just classmates, weren't we? Why don't you tell him how we just kissed in the hotel bathroom?" Qin Chu said cruelly, a haughty smile tugging at the corner of his lips .

Having heard this, Ning Zhiyuan's expression darkened . He felt his entire body going numb .



"I didn't…" Huo Mian struggled to correct Qin Chu's distorted version of the truth .

"Huo Mian, don't lie . You can't lie about this when my scent is still on your lips . " Qin Chu reached out and swept his forefinger across Huo Mian's lips in an extremely intimate and provocative motion .

Then, Qin Chu glanced over at Ning Zhiyuan again .

"You are Huo Mian's boyfriend, but has she ever told you about her past?" he asked .



Her past? Ning Zhiyuan thought in surprise . It was true, Huo Mian never once mentioned her past to him . Aside from still being close friends with Zhu Lingling, Huo Mian never attended any reunion-type of events, and he never asked her about it either .

"What, you didn't know? Hasn't she ever mentioned that, seven years ago, there was a man she loved deeply? That person was me," Qin Chu said, enunciating each word . Huo Mian felt the old wound in her chest, long healed over, tearing open again with excruciating slowness .

"Huo Mian, tell me, is what he said true?" Ning Zhiyuan's voice was cold, no longer holding even a hint of warmth .
