Chapter 78 Confused

...

The night is beautiful.

Shen Xingying held her phone and found the office where Lin Ming worked according to the address sent by Lin Ming.

"Little cousin?" As soon as he arrived at the street near the office, he saw Lin Ming holding hands with a man with a tall and straight back. Shen Xingying walked over quickly and called sweetly: "Little cousin, I'm here."

When Lin Ming heard the sound, she immediately threw the man's hand away, looked at Shen Xingying and asked in surprise: "Why did you come so fast?"

Her address was sent less than 2 minutes ago.

Even if you take a spaceship, it's not that fast, right?

"I-I happen to be nearby." Shen Xingying told a little lie.

Lin Ming had no doubts and just said casually: "Oh, I thought you could fly."

After saying that, he turned his eyes to Meng Fanyan. After just a cursory glance, he was shocked. He joked to Shen Xingying: "You must have drawn this husband. How can he look so good? It's like an illusion."

"Good-looking?" Suddenly, the man next to her said with a cold breath: "You praise other men in front of me?"

This means jealousy.

From the angle where Shen Xingying and Meng Fanyan stood, they could only see the man's back.

He never turned around, like a messenger in the dark night, full of mystery.

Shen Xingying couldn't help but wonder what he looked like, and asked Lin Ming: "Little cousin, is this your boyfriend?"

"No." Lin Ming didn't know whether she was having trouble with the man or deliberately joking: "We just broke up, so I count her ex-boyfriend."

However, as soon as these words came out, her wrist was clenched tightly by the man again.

Lin Ming frowned in pain, "Jiang Huo, let me go."

Jiang Huo?

Meng Fanyan's eyes trembled for a moment, and his voice suddenly escaped: "Confused?"

Just staring at the man's back, he always felt very familiar... Hearing someone call him a single word, Jiang Huo's heart hurt for some reason.

He couldn't help but turn his head.

In an instant.

In the distance, the sky was full of fireworks, and on the street just a short distance away, Meng Fanyan's eyes suddenly turned red, and he said excitedly: "Huo, it's really you! I thought you had..."

"Who are you?" Jiang Huo's eyes were cold and he didn't recognize Meng Fanyan at all.

"I am..." Meng Fanyan wanted to say it, but found that he seemed to have lost his memory and forgotten, so he temporarily made up a nonsense: "I am your high school classmate, don't you remember? I am Meng Fanyan."

"Meng Fanyan?" The name sounds so familiar, as if I have heard it in my previous life...

"Sorry, I still have no impression." After a long time, Jiang Huo said coldly.

As he said that, he raised his eyes and glanced at the night sky, as if he could observe the stars and tell the time. He turned back to Lin Ming and said, "I have to go back to do research. Don't make trouble with me. I will come to accompany you later."

His voice was too provocative, and Lin Ming couldn't resist his coaxing, so she nodded obediently: "Hmm."

"Huo, where are you going?" Seeing Jiang Huo about to leave, Meng Fanyan called him in a hoarse voice.

Jiang Huo didn't respond and walked straight into the alley.

Shen Xingying could tell that Jiang Huo should be from the same world as Meng Fanyan, otherwise Meng Fanyan would not be so excited.

He even left her behind and said, "Ah Ying, you talk to your little cousin first. I'm in a hurry and need to talk to Jiang Huo. I'll be back soon."

"Okay." Shen Xingying nodded her head and said in a low voice, "But you can't get hurt again."

She was really afraid that he would come back injured like last time.

"I'll be fine." Meng Fanyan reassured her, "I'll explain it to you when I get back."

Huo is his most loyal confidant, so nothing will happen to him.
