Chapter 1156: Did I Seduce You?
Translator: Yunyi
But…
Song Yaoyao kissed Huo Yunque’s chin.
She muttered, “Why are you so tall? It’s not convenient to kiss you.”
Huo Yunque did not hear her clearly and asked, “Huh? What did you say?”
“… nothing! I mean, which one do you think looks best on me?” Song Yaoyao shook her head and ran her fair fingers across a row of hats, turning her head to ask Huo Yunque’s opinion.
“I…” Huo Yunque’s attention was entirely on her. Just as he opened his mouth, Song Yaoyao suddenly interrupted him and said fiercely, “Don’t say that they all look good! You can only choose one!”
Huo Yunque: “…”
He did not say anything. He looked at the hats and finally chose the one that he first picked when he entered the shop. It was a lotus root pink beanie with a snow-white fur ball on the tip.
Song Yaoyao snickered at the sight and teased, “I didn’t expect you to like such a pink color, Gege.”
Huo Yunque put it on her seriously and did not feel embarrassed. “It looks good on you.”
“Ahem…”
Song Yaoyao’s face was slightly hot. How could someone talk about love in such a serious manner?
She asked, “Gege?”
“Hm?”
The man still had his eyes lowered as he focused on tidying up the beanie.
His eyelashes were long and clear. The beam of light on top of his head cast a faint shadow on the bottom of his eyes. It was as if a butterfly was resting in the shadow. It was quiet and beautiful, and one could not bear to disturb it.
As she was about to say something, Song Yaoyao licked her lips. “It’s nothing.”
Huo Yunque tidied up and looked at her with raised eyebrows.
Obviously, he did not believe Song Yaoyao’s words.
“Ahem.” Song Yaoyao had nowhere to hide under his gaze. She coughed dryly and explained in a low voice, “Actually, what I want to say is, do you know what a tease you are?”
“A tease?”
“You were acting really seductive!”
There should be nothing wrong with that explanation, right?
As soon as she finished her sentence, a large shadow suddenly appeared before her eyes.
Song Yaoyao leaned back on the shelf and raised her head in a daze. She looked at the man’s handsome face as it slowly magnified it in front of her.
Her lips softened.
“So, did I seduce you?”
A kiss landed on her lips like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. It only lasted for a second.
Song Yaoyao felt a little regretful. When she heard his question, she stammered and replied with an, “En,” as she blushed.
A clear and seductive chuckle rang in her ears.
Huo Yunque stood up and pulled her over again.
“I’m very happy.”
Song Yaoyao’s eyes fluttered as she looked around guiltily. She felt that everyone had seen what she and her Gege had done.
But she was only feeling shy on her own.
Everyone was used to it. Christmas was a romantic holiday in China, and it was snowing. It was perfect for couples to date.
As they lined up to pay, Song Yaoyao held onto Huo Yunque’s hand, her fingers entwined with his.
She could feel that someone was watching them from behind, and she wanted to run.
Someone must have spotted them!
What made Song Yaoyao panic the most was when it was their turn to pay and she inadvertently glanced at the counter. Almost instantly, she felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her head, causing her mind to go blank.
Immediately, blood rushed to her face and it turned red.
Th-there were surveillance cameras!
“Let’s go!”
After paying and before they even received their receipt, Song Yao quickly dragged Huo Yunque out of the boutique.
Huo Yunque followed with big steps, his phoenix eyes filled with a doting smile.
“What’s wrong?”
Song Yaoyao screamed, “Ahhh! They saw everything! They must have!” No wonder they were looking at her strangely.
“Saw what?” Huo Yunque was surprised.
Song Yaoyao whimpered, “Didn’t you see it? There are surveillance cameras in the shop! The surveillance screen is behind the counter!”
“Ahem…”
No wonder her face was so red. It was because she was shy.
Huo Yunque could not help but laugh. He raised his hand and flicked the pom-pom on her hat. “Cute.”
Song Yaoyao slapped his hand away resentfully. “It’s all your fault!”
They strolled around for a while more. After Song Yaoyao was recognized by her fans on the street, they returned home.
…
This time, without Song Yaoyao’s suppression, photos of her and Huo Yunque strolling around the streets, photos of them strolling around the boutique, and even a video of her feeding Huo Yunque a cake in the cake shop were posted online.
Although Song Yaoyao could not help but feel sour when she saw the anonymous netizens shouting, “I’d like to tap that,” she also knew that Huo Yunque belonged to her alone, and no one could take him away from her.
She was confident.
…
Meanwhile, the movie that she had invested in, the one with Xu Dongqing, was scheduled to screen in the New Year.
This was a low-budget movie, and there were many funny scenes in it. The main character was an actor who had been in the entertainment industry for more than ten years and could only play a minor role. His accent and his comical appearance added a lot of color to the movie.
Song Yaoyao did not go to the premiere, but the critics who had seen it said that the plot was good.
Song Yaoyao woke up on the first day of the new year and greeted Elder Huo first, from whom she reived a thick red packet.
She had long broken ties with her family, so she didn’t have any elders to visit. However, Song Wenchuan transferred a sum of money to her in the morning and said, “Happy New Year.”
Song Wenchuan knew in his heart how much Song Yaoyao disliked Zhou Manli, so he did not mention anything about her visiting their mother.
Song Yaoyap accepted the red packet with a clear conscience and replied, “Thank you, brother,” before leaving.
Her phone rang non-stop the whole morning. It was full of New Year’s greetings from all her friends on WeChat. Among them were her previous ‘patients’, the big shots who could cause earthquakes with just a stomp of their feet.
In the study, Huo Yunque rubbed the space between his eyebrows that was hurting from the noise. He found it funny. “Student Song Yaoyao, you’re busier than me.”
Song Yaoyao did not even raise her head as she calmly replied, “That’s because I’m popular.”
…
In the evening, Tang Xinrou asked Song Yaoyao to go with her to support the new movie she invested in.
Song Yaoyao gladly went.
While waiting for the performance, Tang Xinrou ridiculed, “Yaoyao, you have no idea how my brother-in-law is like now. Those who don’t know would think that he’s the one giving birth. After a man becomes a father, do they all change? Tsk… Whenever I think about how An Feiran and Mr. Huo will become like him in the future, I feel a chill down my spine.”
As she spoke, she rubbed her arms in disgust.
A lot of things had happened to Song Yaoyao during this period of time, and she wasn’t present when Xia Rao gave birth. Hearing Tang Xinrou mention it, she suddenly thought of this.
“After we watch the movie, let’s go see Sister Xia Rao.”
“Sure. I miss the baby too.”
At this time, the ticket inspection began. Song Yaoyao didn’t say anything else. She stood up with Tang Xinrou. Carrying popcorn and milk tea, they queued up to enter the venue.
The two of them wore masks and hats, so the passersby had no idea that the two girls standing beside them were the new director and talented starlet that had been highly discussed throughout the past year.
