Chapter 490: I Really Didn’t See Anything

As Huo Jinyao got up, Su Qingsang turned over in bed and pulled the quilt up to cover herself in the morning.

Seeing her bury herself in the bed, Huo Jinyao pressed a hand on her shoulder and said, “Aren’t you getting up?”

“No…” Su Qingsang still sounded sleepy. She worked a night shift and returned home late last night.

Huo Jinyao had dinner at work last night, so he came home about the same time as she did. He always tried his best to drink less during work dinners, but drinking a little was always inevitable.

Under the effect of the alcohol, they had a pretty crazy night. Su Qingsang didn’t need to work today, so she didn’t intend to get up so early.

Seeing her wrapped in the quilt with only her face exposed, Huo Jinyao’s heart suddenly softened. He kissed her on the forehead and said, “You get some more sleep then, but don’t forget to get up for breakfast. Skipping breakfast isn’t good for your health.”

“Um,” Su Qingsang responded to him before closing her eyes again. But then, she quickly re-opened her eyes.

“Huo Jinyao.”

“Eh?”

“I don’t have to work today. Maybe I should go and visit Grandpa.”

Last week, Liu Tongjia put both Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang in a troublesome situation. Old Master Huo wasn’t angry, but Su Qingsang could tell that he was probably unhappy about it.

She knew that Old Master Huo wasn’t angry at her, but she still wanted to explain herself to him.

Huo Jinyao sat down at the bedside, looking at her. He raised a hand to gently stroke her cheek. Her skin was so smooth and tender.

“Huo Jinyao.” Su Qingsang turned her head to avoid his hand, saying, “Let me ask you something. Should I bring Grandpa a gift? What should I get him as a gift?”

Old Master Huo had everything he needed already. Su Qingsang wanted to make him happy; if she was to bring him a gift, she had to pick something that he would like.

She was rather simple-minded. Huo Jinyao could easily figure out what she was thinking.

“It’s okay,” he said, “Grandpa’s not mad.”

Su Qingsang wasn’t the only one who didn’t want a child. Huo Jinyao wasn’t sure if he wanted to be a father so soon either.

Liu Tongjia believed that Su Qingsang incited Huo Jinyao into refusing to have children, yet the thought flattered Su Qingsang. Was Huo Jinyao the kind of man who would be incited by a woman?

That was what he said to Old Master Huo. Old Master Huo was still slightly displeased, but he never mentioned it again after hearing what Huo Jinyao said.

Therefore, Su Qingsang didn’t need to keep thinking about that.

“Don’t overthink it. I’m going to work.”

Huo Jinyao kissed her again, then left for work.

Despite what Huo Jinyao said, Su Qingsang didn’t intend to let it go just like that. She could easily sense Old Master Huo’s attitude toward her ever since she moved to Rong City.

Huo Jinyao didn’t give her any tips, so she decided to pick a gift for Old Master Huo by herself.

Su Qingsang rarely give gifts to elders. She used to present gifts to Su Chenghui and Li Qianxue, but it was only a formality.

After learning the truth about her daughter, Li Qianxue wanted to give her all the best in the world. Xiang Caiping was the same.

Su Qingsang had no idea what to give Old Master Huo as a gift.

She struggled a little. Coming out of the shopping mall, she unwittingly walked into a small street behind it.

When she realized where she was and intended to leave, she heard some noises from the alley nearby.

She knew that curiosity could sometimes lead to misfortune, so she moved faster to leave. At that very moment, two men came out of the alley.

One of them had a crew cut. His eyes grew cold the moment he saw Su Qingsang, which startled her.

She automatically made a large step backward. However, when she saw the man behind that man, she no longer felt to need to run away.

It was the young man who always helped other people heroically.

Zhang Yichen was surprised to see Su Qingsang too, wondering what she was doing there. He glanced at the other man and signaled for him to leave.

The man looked at Su Qingsang and said, “She heard it.”

“I didn’t hear anything,” Su Qingsang said, frantically raising three fingers, “I just got here and I didn’t hear anything.”

That sounded like a lie. Even though Su Qingsang didn’t hear anything, the man got more suspicious when hearing her words and even took a step forward.

Zhang Yuchen patted him on the shoulder, said, “Go. She didn’t hear it.”

The man didn’t agree with Zhang Yichen. However, he didn’t say anything and gave Su Qingsang another warning glance.

As Su Qingsang even started trembling, the man turned and left.

Su Qingsang patted her chest. When her eyes landed on Zhang Yichen’s face, she shuddered again.

She leaned against the wall behind her. The weather was still cold at the beginning of February, but Su Qingsang felt her back was sweating.

She had a good impression of Zhang Yichen after the few times she saw him before; he always seemed to be trying to do something good.

However, there was no rule in the world that people who had done good deeds would never do anything bad.

Seeing the look of fear on Su Qingsang’s face, Zhang Yichen made to steps forward and walked up to her.

It was a workday, and the weather was cold. An alley like that was extra quiet.

Su Qingsang swallowed her saliva. As the man stepped up to her, she cleared her throat and said, “I swear, I didn’t hear you guys talking.”

It was all just a misunderstanding. Su Qingsang wanted to say more to explain for herself, but Zhang Yichen raised a hand before she could.

Su Qingsang flinched and closed her eyes. For a moment, she felt a little weird, so she hurriedly re-opened her eyes and found the man’s hand on the wall next to her body.

“You didn’t hear it?”

Zhang Yichen believed that she didn’t hear it. His hearing was sharp enough to hear Su Qingsang’s step sound very clearly. He stopped talking once he heard someone approaching.

Therefore, Su Qingsang couldn’t possibly have heard anything.

Seeing the woman with a fearful face, looking completely different from the calm and composed doctor that he met earlier in the hospital, Zhang Yichen had the same feeling as he did last time.

The woman was quite interesting.

“Su… Qingsang?”

Su Qingsang wore a badge with her name on it when she was working in the hospital, so it made sense for him to know her name. Even so, hearing the man call her name made her even more scared.

“Sir, I really didn’t hear anything.” she tried her best to calm herself down. She knew that some sick people were excited by seeing other people in fear.

“Can you please step away?”

Zhang Yichen didn’t move. He stared at Su Qingsang’s face and abruptly dropped his head.

Su Qingsang grew even more nervous. Watching Zhang Yichen’s face come closer and closer to her, she couldn’t but raise a hand to slap him on the face.

Her wrist was caught in the air. Zhang Yichen caught her wrist pretty easily and prevented her from struggling.

“You!”

Once again, Zhang Yichen leaned closer to her face. Su Qingsang gave a start. Looking at his face enlarging in her eyes, she raised her other hand.

Sadly, her other hand was caught again.

“Let go of me.” With both wrists in his hands, Su Qingsang was now at a complete disadvantage.

Her current situation made her regret coming out alone.

Her phone started ringing, indicating that Huo Jinyao was calling her. The man still had her wrists in his grip.

She tried a few more times but failed to free herself.

She got angry. Her voice grew cold, “Mister, you better let me go. You can not afford to offend me.”

Tianyu Group was a very powerful company in Rong City. If the man dared to do anything bad to her, she believed that Huo Jinyao would not easily forgive him.

“Yeah?” Zhang Yichen was going to let her go, only intending to scare her. However, her words made him tighten his grip.

“I can’t afford to offend you? Do you know who I am then?”

Su Qingsang clenched her teeth. The good impression the man left her by helping people twice in a row was now gone for good.

“You are obviously not a good person.”

“Yes, you are right. Since I’m not a good person, why should I be afraid of offending you?”

Su Qingsang’s face paled. He was right. Ordinary people couldn’t afford to offend Tianyu Group, such as the ones who were running their businesses.

Unlike those people, a criminal had no reason to be afraid of her at all.

Su Qingsang tried again to free her own hands, but she found the man using his strength very smartly. She didn’t feel pain, but could never break free from his grip.

Her phone stopped ringing, and she calmed down.

“Mister, can we talk?”

“Sure.”

“You guys do this… business. I assume you do it for money.” It took Su Qingsang a few seconds to come up with the word ‘business’. Her voice softened as she added, “You can just tell me what you want. Maybe that will be easier than you using violence on me.”

“How am I supposed to know whether or not you’ll call the police afterward?”

What a sneaky man. Su Qingsang clenched her teeth and said, “You have me now. How am I gonna call police?”

Zhang Yichen stared at her face and said, “Oh, I doubt that. If I asked you to transfer money to my account, you could go to the bank and then call the police there.”

“What do you want then?” Su Qingsang lost her patience, “Are you gonna kill me?”

“That won’t be necessary.” Zhang Yichen looked at Su Qingsang, narrowed his eyes slightly. Su Qingsang instinctively felt that something was going to go wrong.

In the next second, the man leaned toward her. Su Qingsang was frightened at that moment. She thought he was going to do something to her.

To her surprise, the man paused at five centimeters away from her.

He stared at her in the eyes, saying, “Woman, curiosity kills the cat. Don’t be so curious this time.”

Su Qingsang didn’t dare to move. She looked at the man’s face, wanting to slap him.

Zhang Yuchen fixed his eyes on Su Qingsang’s red lips and held back his urge to kiss them. However, molesting women wasn’t something that interested him.

He took a step backward and let go of her at the same time.

Su Qingsang didn’t dare to relax. She didn’t know whether or not the man would attempt to do something else.
