Chapter 720 Let Me Blow Your Blow
As if sensing something, Ou Jinghuan walked straight towards Li Chuyue in the huge banquet hall.
The moment Li Chuyue turned to look at him, Ou Jinghuan sensed something was off in her eyes.
When he saw Li Chuyue turn her head away and look away, his heart seemed to skip a beat, making him panic.
Although he remained expressionless, he was still on edge, his hands clenched tightly in his pockets.
Ou Jinghuan walked quickly to Li Chuyue's side, and once he stood next to her, he put his arm around her slender waist.
Even after hearing Li Chuyue say that everything was fine, he still couldn't truly relax.
Although Li Chuyue didn't say anything, he quickly discerned from the expressions of the people around him that Xiao Yueyue was the one most likely to upset Li Chuyue.
Therefore, Ou Jinghuan did not respond to Xiao Yueyue immediately, but instead turned his gaze back to Li Chuyue's profile.
He looked at Li Chuyue's long, curled eyelashes and the faint smile on her lips, and his heart ached.
Earlier, when Ou Jinghuan's gaze swept over Xiao Yueyue, he was actually somewhat surprised.
After all, when he walked over, his eyes were almost always glued to Li Chuyue.
When I briefly glanced around Li Chuyue, I only looked casually to see how many people were there, especially whether there were any men.
Therefore, having confirmed that there were no men present, he quickly shifted his gaze back to Li Chuyue, who was deliberately avoiding his gaze, and did not find Xiao Yueyue.
Because of his keen insight and quick wit, he quickly deduced from the expressions on the faces of the group that the person who made Li Chuyue unhappy was Xiao Yueyue.
At this moment, Xiao Yueyue saw that Ou Jinghuan ignored her and instead turned to look at Li Chuyue, revealing a look of heartache.
The scene far exceeded her expectations, making Xiao Yueyue realize that what Xu Zhishan had said earlier might all be true.
Ou Jinghuan's relationship with Li Chuyue was truly different from hers; they acted like a normal couple, displaying affection and intimacy.
Xiao Yueyue looked at Ou Jinghuan, who, even though he had seemed unapproachable before, would never have ignored her like this.
Her face revealed an unconcealable sadness, and tears slowly welled up in her eyes, making her look pitiful.
She glanced at Li Chuyue, then looked at Ou Jinghuan who was staring at Li Chuyue, and opened her mouth with difficulty to ask:
"Jinghuan, you've seen me... Aren't you happy?"
I went back to China a while ago and went straight to the company to report for duty. I haven't contacted you since, which was my fault. It's understandable that you're angry and ignoring me.
But you also know that my father has high hopes for my brother and me, especially for me. The Xiao family business is growing, and they need me!
Xiao Yueyue paused for a moment, recalling what Xu Zhishan had said to her earlier, and then explained:
"So I hope you can understand me, Jinghuan. I studied hard just like you before, all to prove myself when I returned to China."
I'm genuinely happy for your success now, and I hope... you can understand me too.
I'm not actually like what Shanshan said... I only care about myself, I'm actually..."
Before Xiao Yueyue could finish speaking, Xu Zhishan, realizing that Xiao Yueyue was likely about to confess her feelings on the spot, immediately interrupted her:
"We understand! You have your own reasons and have been under a lot of pressure. We understand!"
Earlier... I did say something too harsh, and I shouldn't have imposed my selfish thoughts on you, so I apologize!
However... some things are in the past, and that's it. You can't accept it now, but you'll be fine once you think it through!
Sister Yueyue, I sincerely hope you succeed and are happy!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yueyue's expression froze as she looked at Xu Zhishan, and she came to her senses.
She realized that she had almost said something inappropriate because she was upset.
Xiao Yueyue took Xu Zhishan's words to heart, especially the final blessing.
"..." Xiao Yueyue shut her mouth and silently lowered her eyes.
At this moment, Li Chuyue also realized that Ou Jinghuan's failure to reply to Xiao Yueyue was likely due to her reaction just now.
She looked at Xiao Yueyue, who was looking down sadly, and thought that Xiao Yueyue had not hurt her and had even told her some things she didn't know.
Therefore, although she cared about some of the things Xiao Yueyue said, she was not angry with Xiao Yueyue.
Li Chuyue didn't want her long-lost classmates to have their relationship broken because of her, and like Xu Zhishan, she didn't want the atmosphere to become awkward any longer.
So she decided to let bygones be bygones for Ou Jinghuan's lie for now, and looked up at Ou Jinghuan, meeting his gaze directly.
Her smile was more natural than before, and she looked at Ou Jinghuan with a strange expression, muttering a complaint under her breath:
Why are you staring at me like that? If you suddenly disappear again and stay away for so long that I worry, I really won't talk to you anymore!
Your classmate is greeting you! Hurry up and reply! Otherwise, it'll be so awkward!
When Li Chuyue raised her eyes and met Ou Jinghuan's gaze, Ou Jinghuan's deep and dark eyes instantly became much brighter than before.
However, Ou Jinghuan clearly saw Li Chuyue's reaction just now, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
His deep voice had softened considerably, but a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes as he glanced at Xiao Yueyue. He asked in a low voice:
"I know you're not angry about this. Tell me, did she bully you?"
No one here can bully you, you don't need to..."
"Ugh!" Before Ou Jinghuan could finish speaking, a muffled groan escaped his throat.
Ou Jinghuan lowered his eyes, looking at Li Chuyue's small fist hitting his hard abdomen with a surprised expression.
He didn't know why Li Chuyue suddenly attacked him, and that the punch had used a bit of skill.
The punch seemed slow, but he suddenly added some force at the end, so much so that he underestimated the punch and made a sound.
Ou Jinghuan was puzzled. He wasn't angry; instead, he looked at Li Chuyue with a wronged expression.
Li Chuyue deliberately ignored Ou Jinghuan's feigned pitiful expression, trying hard to suppress her laughter, and said:
"Okay! I've vented my anger, now you can talk back to them!"
Upon hearing this, Ou Jinghuan immediately grasped Li Chuyue's hand, which was about to withdraw, and gently blew on it.
"hu~hu~"
Li Chuyue was surprised when Ou Jinghuan suddenly blew on her hand in front of everyone.
As she felt the warm breeze blowing from Ou Jinghuan, her heart raced and her cheeks flushed.
"What are you doing! I asked you to answer, you! You..." Li Chuyue said shyly as she withdrew her hand.
Worried about hurting Li Chuyue, Ou Jinghuan released his grip and said softly:
"It's all red, did it hurt? Should I blow on it again?"
As soon as Ou Jinghuan finished speaking, Xiao Yueyue, who really couldn't bear to watch any longer, gritted her teeth and said:
"Jinghuan, Shanshan, Junjun, and... Miss Li, I have to leave now..."
