Chapter 272: Pitiful
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As Si Huan’s friend, Zhao Feng knew that Si Huan didn’t like to expose his inner heart. Therefore, he readily changed the topic according to Si Huan’s intention.
He recalled everything that had happened tonight and sighed. “Fang He and the others are fine. They didn’t cause me too much trouble. I’m so depressed because I met Huo You at the bar.”
Si Huan frowned unconsciously at the mention of Huo You’s name. After Huo You kept finding trouble for Huo Tian, Si Huan had developed a physiological disgust for her.
He didn’t hide his annoyance. “You were nosy again?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZhao Feng looked at him innocently and said, “I had no choice. Back then, she was drunk alone there, and two unfamiliar men wanted to bring her away. I couldn’t just watch as my schoolmate got into an accident, right?”
Si Huan clicked his tongue. “Don’t blame me for not reminding you. This woman is not easy to deal with. She seems to have some psychological problems and hates everyone around Tiantian. Be careful that she might do you harm.”
This matched what Huo You had said when she was drunk.
For some reason, Zhao Feng didn’t echo Si Huan’s words. Instead, he smiled and said, “She’s like the villainous young miss from a school play. She’s so bad in an open and honest way, insisting on making others hate her. I don’t know what she’s after.”
Si Huan looked at Zhao Feng in surprise. His gaze swept across him and realized that Zhao Feng didn’t realize that there was anything wrong with what he had said. A strange premonition suddenly rose in his heart.
He frowned and asked solemnly, “Zhao Feng, have you developed positive feelings toward Huo You?”
“Huh? How is that possible?”
As if he had been given a huge shock, Zhao Feng almost jumped off the barstool. The cup he had raised halfway paused in midair and water splashed onto the table. He quickly took out a tissue and frantically cleaned up the mess.
After wiping up the mess, Zhao Feng heaved a sigh of relief. However, he was a little panicked when facing Si Huan’s oppressive gaze. He quickly avoided Si Huan’s gaze as he drank the water.
Then, Zhao Feng said, “Si Huan, I know Huo You isn’t a good girl. I’m not that desperate. I just feel that she seems quite pitiful…”
Si Huan shook his head helplessly and stopped using a compelling gaze toward his good friend with his gaze.
Zhao Feng was a kind-hearted person to begin with. He was compassionate and could always see other people’s fragile and pitiful side.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was precisely because of Zhao Feng’s personality that he felt pity for Si Huan, who had lost all his family members, and took the initiative to get close to the unsociable Si Huan. In the years before Huo Tian appeared, it was precisely because of Zhao Feng’s existence that Si Huan wasn’t completely disappointed in this world.
Therefore, when Zhao Feng said that he felt that Huo You was pitiful, Si Huan wasn’t surprised at all.
He compromised and said to Zhao Feng, “I won’t interfere with your kindness towards Huo You. I’m just reminding you first not to get too involved with her.”
In order to let Zhao Feng have an accurate understanding of Huo You’s nature, Si Huan thought for a moment and told him about Ding Rong’s kidnapping incident.
“…That kidnapper is very tight-lipped. I can only somehow find out that this matter has something to do with He Yu. But from some other leads, I suspect that this matter has something to do with Huo You as well. If that’s the case, she can even be cruel to the adoptive mother who raised her for 18 years, let alone an ordinary schoolmate like you.”
Zhao Feng was clearly very shocked. He frowned and was silent for a long while before saying, “I understand. In the future, I’ll take note not to get too close to her.”
Zhao Feng had wanted to have a chat with Si Huan to ease his depressed mood.. He didn’t expect that after chatting, it would add to his troubles, causing him to be unable to sleep for the entire night.
