Chapter 35 Repeat the Sentence

Huo Quan’s expression darkened. “Is this what you really think?”

Li Miaoke nodded.

Huo Quan asked again, “No regrets?”

Li Miaoke’s grip on the corner of his shirt tightened. She answered, “No regrets.”

She was still young and had no one to rely on. So even if it was with Huo Quan… she wouldn’t feel anything. After all, she had never had anything. However, if she continued to be with Huo Quan, since Huo Quan was so wonderful, Li Miaoke knew that she would fall in love with him sooner or later.

Therefore, she decided to take the opportunity now. Before she was completely carried away by Huo Quan’s gentleness, she would quickly withdraw.

Just as Li Miaoke was consoling herself, her chin was suddenly pinched. Huo Quan pinched her and forced her to look at him.

“Say what you just said again.” Huo Quan’s voice was devoid of any warmth.

Li Miaoke and him looked at each other. Their lips were tightly pressed together and they didn’t say a word.

“Don’t you want to say it?” Huo Quan whispered to her. He couldn’t help but tighten his grip on her.

Li Miaoke pushed him away. Under Huo Quan’s gloomy gaze, she got up from Huo Quan’s embrace and walked to the side, then, she said slowly, “I’ve already said that we’re not suitable for each other. Whether it’s our status, age, or anything else, we’re not suitable for each other.” She finished what she wanted to say in one breath. “I don’t want to lose everything again.”

“Whether we’re suitable or not, it’s up to me.” Huo Quan’s gaze was locked on Li Miaoke. “If you think that you can escape from me with such a reason, then don’t think about it.”

Li Miaoke was stunned. Escape? What did he mean by escape? “No, Huo Quan, you misunderstood what I meant. What I meant was…”

“You’re just afraid that I’ll leave you in the future and you’ll lose everything.” Huo Quan interrupted her.

Li Miaoke grunted in agreement, but then realized that something was wrong. She quickly shook her head. “No, that’s not what I meant either. I just…”

“Alright, then I’ll transfer all my assets to you.” Huo Quan’s resolution startled Li Miaoke so much that her eyes instantly widened. Huo Quan took the opportunity to get up, but the tall figure pressed down on her. “Do you feel secure now? Can we not break up?”

His deep voice brought Li Miaoke back to her senses. “No, it’s not…”

Huo Quan closed in again. “It’s not?”

Li Miaoke kept retreating until she had nowhere to go. She stared at Huo Quan, who had a dark expression on his face, and stammered, “I’m just expressing my thoughts. I’m just worried and scared. I can’t control my thoughts anymore. It’s useless to force me like this.”

Seeing that Huo Quan wanted to continue moving forward, Li Miaoke couldn’t help but shout, “Stop, don’t go any further!”

Only God knew how much strength Li Miaoke had used to shout these words.

When the servants downstairs heard the commotion, they couldn’t help but stop what they were doing and look upstairs. However, they quickly lowered their heads and busied themselves with their own matters, as if they had not heard anything.

When Mr. Huo and Miss Li were free, they liked to mess around a little. They understood and pretended that they didn’t know anything, but the commotion caused by the two of them was a little too loud.

How could Huo Quan listen to Li Miaoke? His lips curled into a menacing smirk. “Miaoke, do you know what you just did?”.

Li Miaoke’s back was pressed against the wall, and she looked at him warily. “I… I just said what I wanted to say. Look at how handsome you are, how rich you are, and how capable and powerful you are. All the women outside want to throw themselves at you, and they all want to marry you.”

Her next words were interrupted by Huo Quan’s actions. Li Miaoke looked at Huo Quan, who had completely pressed her against the wall. She was stunned for a while. Was… Was this the legendary kabedon?

Huo Quan lowered his head to look at her with a smirk. “Say it. Why don’t you continue?”

Li Miaoke didn’t dare to continue! She bent down slightly to get out of Huo Quan’s arms, but Huo Quan seemed to know what she was going to do. He held her between his arms with both hands, and he locked his eyes on her. “Other than praising me, is there nothing else you want to say?”

Huo Quan was too close to her. It was as if their lips would touch in the next second. She could even hear his light breathing and the smooth skin on his perfectly handsome face. She even noticed for the first time that Huo Quan’s eyelashes were so long…
