Wen Li's eyes widened for a moment, then shrank back like a quail, and said in a muffled voice, "Professor Huo, you remembered the wrong person."
Huo Yuanchen let out two low chuckles from his chest. He pulled her out of his arms, looked at her chest with a lewd look, and asked in a lewd manner, "Captain Wen, why did you give me such a name? Are you going to love me forever?"
Wen Li couldn't afford to lose face like this, so she pushed him away immediately and pulled the quilt to cover him, leaving him with only a distant back.
After a long while, he said unhappily, "You heard wrong. It's not Huo Ai Yi Sheng, it's Huo Xia Yi Sheng. It ...
Huo Yuanchen was not angry. Instead, he came over and hugged her from behind. His tone even seemed a little gentler. He smiled and asked her, "Who did I harm? Did I harm you?"
Wen Li said nothing.
She felt that she had no right to say that Huo Yuanchen had ruined her. She was the one who had started this abnormal relationship between the two of them. She was a very principled person, unlike some people who would randomly put the blame on others.
But just because she didn't speak, it didn't mean someone wouldn't give up.
Huo Yuanchen put his hand on her waist, squeezed it gently, and asked again, "Did I harm you?"
"No." Wen Li said in a muffled voice, "Why should I be harmed by you? If you want to harm someone, go and harm your future wife. It would be best if you two stay together until old age, that would be a real harm to me for life."
She has a shortcoming, she likes to talk nonsense when she gets angry, and she is a bit outspoken. After she finished speaking, she regretted it, thinking that what she said was a mess.
She had just been in bed with Huo Yuanchen, and now his hand was touching hers in an unruly way. Why was she talking about his future wife? This was too weird.
But then she thought again, no matter who Huo Yuanchen married in the future, that person couldn't be her, so what she said was not wrong.
Fortunately, Huo Yuanchen was having a brain attack tonight and didn't bother with her. Instead, he was silent for a while, smiled lightly, and said, "So that's what you mean."
She had her back to him, not knowing what his expression was like, and was too lazy to guess. She pulled the quilt over her head and said, "Go to sleep. I'm so sleepy."
I don't want to continue this boring topic with him.
The next day, Huo Yuanchen woke her up early and asked her to pack her things and check out.
Wen Li glanced at the time and said unhappily, "Why are you up so early? Isn't there a high-speed train in the afternoon?"
Huo Yuanchen was tying his tie. Seeing that she woke up, he signaled her with his eyes to come over and help him tie it.
He was not able to move around easily when he was burned. She had done this kind of thing before, so she just walked over out of habit. As she tied her hair, she heard him say, "There's a thousand-year-old magnolia tree over here. It's in bloom. I'll take you to see it."
Wen Li looked at him twice more in surprise, trying to confirm whether he had been possessed by someone else at the wedding.
In her impression, Professor Huo was not so romantic.
But she went anyway. She was a photographer and had a natural desire to pursue beauty, so there was no reason for her to miss such a romance that spanned a thousand years.
What she didn't expect was that a thousand-year-old magnolia tree was planted in an inconspicuous ancient temple. The temple was small, with only two small courtyards. The magnolias were in full bloom, and the courtyard was crowded with people. I heard that the main hall still retains murals from a thousand years ago, but because there were too many people coming to see the magnolias in the past two days, they were afraid of damaging the cultural relics, so they didn't open it.
Wen Li felt very sorry. She really wanted to see what was painted in the murals thousands of years ago.
There were too many people looking at the flowers, and she couldn't squeeze in. She couldn't take good photos because of the crowds. Just as she was worrying, Huo Yuanchen put his hand on her waist.
He said, "There are too many people. I'll hold you and watch."
Wen Li was not willing to do that and waved his hands to refuse.
Huo Yuanchen said impatiently, "Don't waste time. Since I brought you here to play, you have to enjoy yourself. No one here knows us. Besides, it's not like I haven't hugged you before. Didn't you enjoy it when I hugged you before?"
His first words were quite normal, but the latter ones were not so serious. When he held Wen Li up like a child, they were probably doing some kind of exercise.
Saying it in public at this time has a bit of flirtatious flavor.
Wen Li blushed, but finally didn't refuse.
Huo Yuanchen was tall, and Wen Li was naturally taller than others when he held her in his arms. He had a wide field of vision and could see the entire magnolia tree at once. The tree was indeed densely covered with flowers and strong branches, exuding an ancient charm.
She took more than a dozen photos in one breath, then lowered her head and said to Huo Yuanchen, "I'm done, let me down."
When she landed, she was squeezed by the person behind her and lost her balance. She pounced on Huo Yuanchen and her red lips landed on his shirt, leaving a bright red lip mark.
Although he was indulgent, he always maintained a cool image outside and would not be intimate with her in public. Wen Li felt a little uneasy when she kissed him, fearing that she would make him unhappy.
Unexpectedly, he didn't care. He just reached out to help her and asked her, "Let's go?"
Wen Li nodded and pointed carefully at the shirt she had soiled, "Here, I accidentally soiled it."
Huo Yuanchen took a look and didn't care much, saying, "Just go back and wipe it off."
When leaving, Wen Li saw someone selling photocopies of the murals at the door, so she went to buy two. When she came back, she saw Huo Yuanchen picking up a magnolia flower from the ground. The petals were still fresh, probably because someone had accidentally knocked them off.
Wen Li said casually, "Why pick this up? The petals are quite delicate. They won't look good when we take them back."
Huo Yuanchen went to the nearby snack stand and bought an empty box. He carefully put the flowers in it, glanced at Wen Li, and said calmly, "It's still blooming after a thousand years. It's quite rare. Let's go back and take a look at the cell wall."
Wen Li was speechless, and then he thought of another thing and said it without thinking, "Speaking of cell walls, I remember that when our class did the cell wall experiment, it seemed that you were the one who guided us."
It happened a long time ago, and she didn't expect that she could still remember it. But she thought that Huo Yuanchen definitely didn't remember it. After all, more than ten years ago, he was as aloof and cold as he is now, and it was not easy to get close to him.
Unexpectedly, he nodded and said, "I remember that too."
As he spoke, he gave Wen Li a meaningful look and said calmly, "You broke the slide three times in one class and scratched the microscope lens. Wen Li, you really left a deep impression on me at that time."
Wen Li, "..."
"Don't you think I have any good points?" she asked unwillingly.
The man thought about it, nodded slowly, and said, "You finally chose to study art. This shows that although you have no strengths, you at least have some self-awareness."
Wen Li, "..."
