Chapter 96 - Getting Drunk At A BarChapter 96: Getting Drunk At A Bar
Strong drums, a noisy crowd, women with heavy makeup were twisting their bodies under the blurry lights like a strange show together with young and crazy men.
Even though Huo You was sitting in the corner, her ears were filled with the clinking of wine glasses and uncontrollable laughter.
Huo You sat alone at the bar. She rejected one young man after another who came over to fawn on her and only took glasses of cocktail from the bartender. She wasn’t trying to get drunk. She was just looking for a place to temporarily leave the Huo Family, the family that was filled with an oppressive atmosphere.
After an unknown period of time, someone sat down on the chair beside her.
Huo You was already sprawled on the bar counter. She rested her head on her arm and turned to look at the person beside her. The man raised his hand and brushed his fingers across her cheek suggestively.
Huo You hit the man’s wrist, but her light force failed to smack it away.

He Yu chuckled. “Young Miss, it’s fine if you’re hiding from other men. Why aren’t you even letting me touch you?”
Huo You opened her eyes slightly and stared at He Yu for a long while. Only then did she see who the man in front of her was.
She sneered softly. “So it’s you. Why are you here?”
“I’m here to attend a gathering with friends.”
He Yu pointed to the second floor. Huo You followed his gaze and saw several men with young girls in their arms waving at them.
The unrestrained behavior of those people, with couples hugging and kissing without restraint, looked like an indulgent scene.
Huo You couldn’t help but sneer as she looked at He Yu mockingly. “It seems like you’re having a good time. Your date should be up there, right? Isn’t it bad to leave her behind to come to find me?”
As if he hadn’t heard the mockery in her words, He Yu got a little closer. Their breaths could be heard clearly.
Huo You didn’t reject He Yu’s approach. He Yu planted a soft kiss on her face and said with a smile, “Is my young miss jealous? Don’t worry, those women are just unpresentable playthings. I don’t even know their names. In my heart, you’ll always be the most special one.”
Huo You knew that for someone like He Yu, those female companions were like expensive accessories. They were symbols of wealth and status.
Huo You couldn’t help but think of her past life. Although she had been officially married to her husband back then, wasn’t she just an accessory to his life?
If it wasn’t because she had enough of being an accessory to a man for the rest of her life, why would Huo You have tried so hard to climb up the ladder and find ways to grasp more power and money?
This desire to climb higher burned Huo You’s body and soul, making her not dare to stop for even a moment.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe found the right opportunity to return to the Huo Family and chased Huo Tian away. She then seized the opportunity to be with He Yu and slowly revealed her talent.
She just wanted a chance to control her own fate. What was wrong with that? However, it was her blood-related family who kept striking at her ambitions, warning her not to put her hands on things that didn’t belong to her…
Huo You thought that she would be able to start a new life after returning to the Huo Family, but she didn’t expect it to be the start of disappointments after disappointments.
At Huo You’s signal, the bartender placed a cocktail glass in front of her again. Huo You picked up the glass and gulped down the colorful alcohol.
He Yu was a little surprised by the loss of her composure. He Yu didn’t like women who looked dejected, but when he saw Huo You, who seemed to be shrouded in a layer of loneliness, he couldn’t help but have the urge to explore her heart.
Hence, He Yu got even closer. He wrapped his arm around Huo You’s waist and whispered suggestively into her ear, “What happened? You were so sad that you needed to come to the bar to get drunk. As your business partner, I haven’t done a good enough job since I’m unable to keep you in a good mood.”
Huo You turned to stare at He Yu. Only then did He Yu realize that Huo You’s eyes were a little red as if she had cried. However, her eyes were dry and there weren’t any tears.
“He Yu, tell me, who was the one who had died in the kidnapping incident?” Huo You’s voice was a little hoarse. “The Huo Family said that my mother died. Tell me, is that true?”
“What? So the person who died is that Ding woman? The woman who had raised you for 18 years? Is that why you’re so sad?”
He Yu chuckled, but it didn’t contain any sarcasm. He only looked at the girl, who was trying to suppress her sadness, strangely.
“You appeared so resolute earlier, so I thought that you’d been mentally prepared. In our plan this time, both the Ding Family’s siblings might lose their lives. Didn’t you know about this long ago?”
