1372 Two Choices
Xue Liang lowered his eyes and looked at the violin beside him. “Mr. Huo, what’s your decision?”
Huo Yuzhou’s calm face was gradually covered in a layer of black fog. He could not help but clench his fists. He subconsciously looked at Qiao Xi. She still had a calm expression as if all of this had nothing to do with her.
She was the same as before. She did not even bother to look at people she did not care about.
Ever since that incident, she had treated him like a stranger. Everything in the past had vanished. The person who had once followed him and called him ‘Brother Yuzhou’ had completely disappeared.
He had thought of countless ways to win Qiao Xi back, but every time they met, she would only nod coldly and not say anything else. It was as if those few years were just a dream.
After so many years, she was still so cold. This matter was clearly related to her, but she could still watch coldly.
Huo Yuzhou suddenly felt his chest tighten. The smell of blood surged out of his throat as he said with difficulty, “What should I be deciding?”
Xue Liang pretended to be surprised and said in a mocking tone, “If you’re willing to hand Guan Hui over today, Xi Xi will accept this violin. Our past grudges will be written off. If you insist on keeping Guan Hui, then Xi Xi will absolutely not accept this violin. Please don’t disturb Xi Xi in the future as well. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being merciless.”
Huo Yuzhou’s heart skipped a beat as he frowned.
Qiao Xi, who had been watching coldly from the side, slowly raised her eyes. Her cold gaze landed on Huo Yuzhou, and the corners of her mouth curled into a playful smile.
Everyone was waiting for his response, but Guan Hui’s face was pale as she trembled.
The nobles of Y Nation all knew that Huo Yuzhou doted on her, but she knew very well who Huo Yuzhou liked. If he really handed her over, then she…
Fear and unwillingness instantly engulfed Guan Hui’s heart. She knew that the fire was not set for her because she was not in Huo Yuzhou’s heart at all. It was even more impossible for him to give up on Qiao Xi and the divine physician for her.

Huo Yuzhou’s breathing trembled. Xue Liang’s words were like a blow to his head, making him feel dizzy. It was not that he could not bear to part with Guan Hui but these words reminded him of what had happened back then.
At that time, after he set the fire, the divine physician had given him two choices. As long as he was willing to tell him the reason for the fire, everything would be over. He could still stay on the mountain and continue to be the apprentice of the divine physician. However, if he did not say anything, they would never see each other again.
In the end, he did not say the reason. He was chased down the mountain and lost a benevolent master. He also lost his old friends and the girl he liked.
Huo Yuzhou originally thought that he was born with an indifferent personality and would not care about friendship or love. He could use anyone to achieve his goal. From the moment he met Qiao Xi, it had been a carefully planned scheme. He thought that that trace of reluctance was just a small bit of affection that had developed over time. It would not be long before he completely forgot about it.
But…
“Mr. Huo, have you thought it through?” Xue Liang said impatiently.
Huo Yuzhou hesitated for a few seconds and took a deep breath. He used his impressive self-control to calm down. Soon, his conflicted eyes returned to normal. He was still the calm and composed Mr. Huo.
His eyes were cold, and his voice was gentle. “Mr. Xue, I think you’ve misunderstood. What happened back then had nothing to do with Lil Hui. I was just rash.
“If Xi Xi… doesn’t want to accept this violin, then I won’t force her.”
Hearing his answer, Xue Liang was not surprised in the slightest. He just looked at him coldly. “In that case, please remember my words today and don’t disturb Xi Xi anymore. Don’t forget that I have something on you.”
With that, Xue Liang turned to look at Guan Hui with even more disdain. “Miss Guan, let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t provoke Xi Xi. Don’t think that just because Huo Yuzhou is protecting you that we can’t do anything. Why don’t you ask Huo Yuzhou if he can protect you if we really attack?”
Guan Hui’s body went weak. She held onto the chair beside her to steady herself, but she also heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately… Fortunately, Yuzhou chose her. If she fell into Xue Liang’s hands, her outcome would definitely be very miserable.
Her gaze carried a trace of pride as she looked at Qiao Xi. Unexpectedly, Qiao Xi didn’t even bother to look at her before turning around and leaving with a calm expression.
Xue Liang looked coldly at Huo Yuzhou, and the man was also looking at him. When their gazes met, sparks seemed to appear in the air.
