Chapter 142: You Must Come

Yun Qing curled her lips and glanced at Huo Qing. She said coldly, “Miss Huo, I’ll pay first. It’s mine.”

Huo Qing’s aura was much weaker than Yun Qing’s. She gritted her teeth and suddenly thought of something. She said, “Yun Qing, don’t tell me you’re going to buy a birthday present for my brother?”

Yun Qing did not realize it, until Huo Qing said that Huo Chuan’s birthday was also in the next few days.

His birthday was only one day away from Ye Zhi’s.

As soon as Huo Qing said that, Lin Yu came to a realization and looked at Yun Qing in surprise.

“Yun Qing, stop daydreaming! My brother will not invite you, and you won’t have the chance to give him the gift. You’d better give it to me.”

When Yun Qing said nothing, Huo Qing thought that she had hit a sore spot in Yun Qing and said sarcastically.

Lin Yu saw that Huo Qing’s words were getting more and more outrageous, so he quickly reminded her, “Don’t talk nonsense.”

Lin Yu could see Huo Chuan’s attitude towards Yun Qing now.

Previously, Huo Chuan never inviteed Yun Qing, but that did not mean that he would not invite her for this year’s birthday.

Yun Qing could not be bothered with Huo Qing and held the gift tightly in her hand. “Since you want it, then I can’t give it to you.”

“Why not?!”

Huo Qing retorted indignantly.

Yun Qing smiled. “Because I hate you.”

With that, she took out her card and paid.

Gu Zhi watched a good show and couldn’t help but look at Huo Qing and taunt, “Miss Huo, you’re really thick-skinned. How could Yun Qing give Huo Chuan a gift?

“Is your Huo family’s skin inherited from your ancestors? Why is each one thicker than the other?”

With that, Gu Zhi and Yun Qing strode off, leaving Huo Qing hopping around in anger.

Meanwhile, Lin Yu couldn’t wait to share the news with Huo Chuan.

“Huo Chuan! Guess who I ran into?!

“I ran into Yun Qing! She bought you a birthday present! Just sit back and wait for it! You’ll definitely like it!”

Huo Chuan’s hand trembled when he saw this, and he almost dropped his phone.

Yun Qing had actually prepared a birthday present for him?

Why couldn’t he believe it?

During this period, he had seen Yun Qing’s attitude towards him.

Huo Chuan was skeptical, but that hope was greater than his doubt.

He was looking forward to it, hoping that Yun Qing would remember his birthday, hoping that Yun Qing would give him a present.

If Yun Qing really wanted to give him a present, then he had to properly organize this year’s birthday party.

As if he had thought of something, Huo Chuan suddenly remembered the three years they had been married.

During those three years, Yun Qing had also proposed to celebrate his birthday with him. However, he did not have much feelings for Yun Qing and felt that it was meaningless for them to celebrate their birthdays. Hence, he rejected her.

If he remembered correctly, Yun Qing had also prepared a present for him during those three years.

Huo Chuan picked up his phone and dialed Li Yi’s number.

“President Huo, what’s the matter?”

Li Yi’s voice quickly came from the other end of the phone.

Huo Chuan asked impatiently, “Where’s the birthday present that Yun Qing gave me earlier?”

Li Yi was puzzled — Why did President Huo suddenly ask about Yun Qing’s birthday presents?

He thought about it carefully and said resentfully, “President Huo, you forgot… All those presents were… misplaced.”

“What?”

Huo Chuan was stunned and quickly searched through the memories of those three years.

He vaguely remembered that Yun Qing had given him a scarf that she had knitted herself. However, Bai Ting liked it very much and kept asking him for it, so he lent it to Bai Ting to wear.

Later on, Bai Ting never returned it to him.

Later on, Yun Qing had given him a pair of couple watches, but Huo Chuan was not interested in that style. After wearing it for a while, he did not know where he had placed it.

Therefore, he was the one who personally wore away Yun Qing’s love and passion for him.

A suffocating feeling came from his chest, and Huo Chuan did not want to think about it anymore.

“I got it.”

Huo Chuan’s voice had a hint of disappointment as he hung up the phone.

Then, out of the blue, he picked up his phone again and dialed Yun Qing’s number.

He waited for her voice, and every beep made him scratch his ears and cheeks.

“Hello? President Huo? Tell me, how much is the repair fee?”

Yun Qing’s voice came with a hint of impatience.

The moment he heard her voice, Huo Chuan’s heart jumped.

He tried hard to control his emotions and said, “Yun Qing, it’s my birthday tomorrow. You must come.”
