Chapter 25 Itâs Not Good to Be Jealous
âSong Shu, what did that man mean?â Jiang Yi was completely dumbfounded. That man said that he was Li Miaokeâs husband? Li Miaoke was still in school, so how could she have a husband? And that man seemed to be a socialite, right? He seemed to be older than Li Miaoke as wellâ¦
Song Shu furrowed his brows slightly. Looking at the luxurious car that was leaving, he shook his head. âI donât know.â
With a bang, Huo Quan slammed the car door shut. Li Miaoke hid herself in a corner while trying her best to minimize her presence.
âWhy? Donât you have something you want to tell me?â Huo Quanâs gaze was fixed on Li Miaoke without any tenderness or mirth. Li Miaoke trembled. âBrotherâ¦. Brother Huo, why are you so angry? I didnât do anything, did I? Besidesâ¦. being angry can accelerate oneâs aging.â
Huo Quan didnât get angry. Instead, he laughed. âSo you think Iâm old?â
Li Miaoke quickly shook her head. âNo, no, no, Iâm just worried about you.â âYou like young boys? You like that stupid kid who just walked with you?â Huo Quanâs sudden question confused Li Miaoke. âWhat? Who do you think I like?â
âSong Shu, the one who came out with you at the school gate.â Huo Quanâs voice was cold. âIf you donât like that stupid kid, will you forget that I came to pick you up from school? And why were you smiling at him so brightly?â
Li Miaoke stared at him blankly.
âSpeak!â Huo Quan said.
âHahahaha!â Li Miaoke slapped her leg in amusement after regaining her senses. This was the first time she felt that Huo Quan was so childish. Just because they came out together, it meant she liked him?! He said she was smiling brightly? She was obviously smiling awkwardly, okay?! When he saw how insolent Li Miaoke was, Huo Quanâs expression turned even colder. âAre you done smiling?â The air pressure in the car was extremely low, and the man was clearly on the verge of exploding in anger.
Li Miaoke shifted her body to lie in Huo Quanâs arms. She raised her fair face to look at him. âBrother Huo, are you jealous?â There was a smile on her lips, and even her beautiful eyes were full of mirth.
For no reason, half of the anger in Huo Quanâs heart disappeared, but he still snorted coldly and turned his head to the side without saying a word.
âAre you still feeling jealous?â
Before Li Miaoke could finish her teasing, Huo Quan suddenly turned to look at her. âWhat? I canât be jealous? Youâre my wife. As your husband, I donât even have the right to be jealous?â
Li Miaokeâs little face instantly turned red. âDonât talk nonsense. Your words will cause people to misunderstand!â
âOh really? Who will misunderstand?â Huo Quanâs voice became even deeper.
Wei Ling quietly put down the partition. Li Miaoke saw the partition being put down, and some bad images rushed into her mind. She looked at Huo Quan suspiciously. âNo, no one will misunderstand. Are we going home now?â She tried to change the topic.
âIf not, where are we going?â Huo Quan lowered his voice. âMiaoke, donât you have anything to say to me?â Li Miaoke felt that if she dared to say no, this man would definitely be very angry! Therefore, even though she didnât know what she should say, she still managed to squeeze out a few words. âI, I donât think itâs good to be jealous.â
Huo Quanâs expression instantly turned ugly. âSo, this is what you want to say to me?â
Li Miaoke wanted to nod and say yes, but Huo Quanâs expression and voice didnât seem right, she immediately shook her head. âOf course not. I just think that thereâs no need for you to be jealous. I have nothing to do with Song Shu. Weâre just ordinary classmates. I donât like him at all.â
âThen who do you like?â Huo Quan pressed.
Li Miaoke thought for a moment and shook her head. âI donât like anyone yet. But donât worry, if I ever find someone I like, Iâll definitely tell youâ¦.â Whether she should say it or not, Li Miaoke forgot about her relationship with Huo Quan. Once again, she treated Huo Quan as her brother and confided in him. However, before she could finish speaking, Huo Quan hugged her tightly.
âHuo Quan, youâre hurting me!â Li Miaoke cried out in shock.
Huo Quan let her sit on his lap and stared at her with a burning gaze. Li Miaokeâs voice gradually weakened until it disappeared. She could hear the sound of her heart beating rapidly. In the end, she couldnât take Huo Quanâs gaze anymore. She wanted to avert her gaze, but Huo Quan forcefully stopped her.
âMiaoke, what are you afraid of?â Huo Quan asked her word by word. Li Miaoke could feel his warm breath on her face, and she could even feel his lips touching the tip of her nose when he spoke.
