He Yuchen had a smirk on his face, "you see, you cannot do without me, it is ineffective to want to throw me out, regardless, you finally got married to her, why?"
He Yuchen asked the pressing question. Likewise, he wanted to know why his friend decided to marry the elusive Miss Yue Ning, instead of his crush.
"Chen asked me to marry her, and I listened to her," Huo Feng had a smile on his face while talking about Yue Chen.
He Yuchen had a disgusted frown on his face while listening to his words.
"I revere you, support you in everything you decide to do and hold you in high esteem, but the only thing I won't support you in is the fact that you are thoroughly whipped for Yue Chen,
Everyone sees that she doesn't love you, you are also aware of it, so why do you disturb yourself when you know she can never be yours? Open your eyes, she asked you to get married to her sister to get you off her backs," He Yuchen did not filter his words as he spoke off the bat.
Huo Feng's smile wiped off his face as he listened to his words. He wanted to lash out at him, curse at him, just like he always did to people who spoke ill of her, but He Yuchen was not about to give him the chance to do so.
"Do not bother to talk, I will be doing the talking, while you listen, our roles will be reversed today," He Yuchen declared as he observed his friend who clamped his mouth shut immediately.
He was satisfied with his obedience as he continued.
"You see it, you know that she doesn't like you the same way you do, then why are you so hellbent on listening to her words? If she asked for your company, would you gladly give it to her?" He Yuchen posed the question.
"Of course not!" Huo Feng was quick to deny it.
"It does not seem so though, brother, take a step back, and re-evaluate yourself, that is my advice for you, alright, I am going back to my office,
Take out time to introduce your wife to us, since you have decided to get married to her, then it is only right the guys know about her," He Yuchen suggested before finally leaving his office.
As soon as he left, Huo Feng looked up to the ceiling.
He would not deny that his words got to him, and he had to think back on his actions.
From giving her black cards, to sponsoring her shopping, to paying for her paid trip. He had done everything, but he was asked to get married to her sister.
When she had asked him to marry her sister, his initial response was to reject it.
But she had looked at him with those eyes. He was weak against those eyes. Her eyes contained unshed tears, and he could not say no, consequently, he agreed to marry her sister.
Now that he thought of it, his actions were truly stupid. He could only exhale as he had an epiphany. She truly did not love him, rather he was being used.
He suddenly heard a knock on the door, which brought him out of his reverie.
"Come in," he uttered, and the person at the door walked in.
"Brother Huo," Huo Feng instantly cringed at the voice, it was a voice very familiar to him, but his initial reaction was to frown.
He looked up just to see Yue Chen.
'Speak of the devil,' he found himself uttering those words.
"Brother Huo, may I have a seat?" She asked, and he nodded.
Regardless, he could not ignore her.
"Brother Huo, I am sorry I asked you to marry my sister, I could only do it for my family's sake," Yue Chen bit her lips heavily, it was enough to draw blood from her.
"It is fine, I would have gotten married anyway, it doesn't matter which I get married to," he muttered, his eyes half closed.
He felt bored by her presence, which was the first time this had happened.
Yue Chen's brows furrowed with his words. She did not know what he meant by it, but she felt disgruntled by his words, though she did not show it.
"Brother Huo," she started with a small smile.
"What is it? Do you have something to say?" Huo Feng was beginning to get fed up with her beating around the bush.
"There was this bag I saw, it is beautiful, all my friends have it, I do not know if you could get it for me," she asked, while playing with her fingers.
His eyebrows raised at her words. He should have expected this, so much for being hopeful that she did not come to bill him.
"Don't you have parents?" He asked. He did not mean to ask it that way, but his words came out wrongly.
Yue Chen was cut by surprise as she stared at him with parted lips, unable to say anything.
"Brother Huo," she whined childishly.
"I am sorry, but my wife will not allow me to get things for another lady," Huo Feng stated without batting his eyelids.
He felt exhausted. He just wanted to end things with her. Not only that, but he felt drained, and he could not continue anymore when it was clear as daylight that she was using him.
"Brother Huo!" This time around, her voice was loud as she could only open and close her mouth, feeling speechless.
She was unable to understand where his words were coming from, and she was genuinely confused.
"Brother Huo, what do you mean by that? I know you are joking, my sister is not a petty woman," Yue Chen smiled, but without confidence.
"I guess you did not really know about your sister's character, which is sad as you practically grew up with her, what sort of sister are you?" Huo Feng smartly shifted the blame to her, and she was at a loss for words.
