Chapter 98. Why don’t you worry about me?

Huo Yuanchen was exuding a low pressure all over his body at this moment.

Wen Li knew what he was angry about, but she didn't regret it. She felt great and happy to have angered An Wen for once. She even felt less dizzy and her wounds didn't hurt as much.

She thought to herself, people should always maintain a good mood. A good mood is more effective than any panacea.

Wen Li shrugged and said nonchalantly, "How did I go wrong? I didn't say anything wrong. Isn't she your student? She came to the airport to pick you up. If not because of respect for teachers, what else could it be?

After saying that, he deliberately looked at Huo Yuanchen.

An Wen had more than just a teacher-student relationship with him, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that, but no one would break that window paper. Wen Li didn't believe that Huo Yuanchen could admit in front of her that An Wen had ulterior motives towards him.

Who wouldn't play dumb?

She was quite curious about how Huo Yuanchen would react.

In the end, he just glanced at her calmly, carried her suitcase and walked into the apartment building, "You can't lift heavy things now, I'll help you carry it up."

Wen Li curled the corners of her lips, feeling that she had won the confrontation with An Wen today.

He carried the suitcase all the way to Wen Li's door. When she took out the key to open the door, he said, "I'm leaving first."

Wen Li paused while opening the door and asked him hurriedly, "Don't you want to come in and sit down? My parents are waiting for you."

Huo Yuanchen shook his head and said calmly, "I'm not going in. I have something else to do."

Lift your foot to walk away.

Wen Li grabbed him from behind and stopped him from leaving. She couldn't hold back her emotions and asked him, "What's the matter? Are you anxious to go back to see your good sister? Huo Yuanchen, look at yourself, are you treating me like your girlfriend? What boyfriend would abandon his girlfriend on the first day of returning home and rush to see another woman?"

She stood at her own door, separated from her parents by a door. She didn't even dare to argue loudly. She kept her voice low and felt extremely aggrieved.

When she was excited, her eyes became a little red, and her dizziness symptoms had not yet been cured, so she felt dizzy as if her head was not getting enough oxygen.

Huo Yuanchen's eyes flickered, but he turned his head and said to her with a hint of reproach, "An Wen came to the airport to pick me up with good intentions, but you embarrassed her in public and forced her to leave. You were really wrong about this. Besides, the airport is so far from the school, and she's a girl. What if something happens to her? She's my sister and my student, and I have an obligation to ensure her safety."

Wen Li couldn't bear to hear him say this. Why was it her fault that she was angry with An Wen? What about An Wen being angry with her? Why didn't he blame An Wen? He was biased, biased to the extreme.

She felt choked up and angry, and tried to hold back her tears, saying, "You only think An Wen is a girl, but what about me? I'm not a girl? Why haven't you ever worried that something might happen to me?"

Huo Yuanchen rubbed his brow impatiently, shook off her hand, and said, "You are different."

Wen Li sneered and asked him, "What's the difference?"

Huo Yuanchen wanted to say that she was very independent and could take care of herself without anyone worrying about her.

Before she could say anything, Wen Li's phone rang. It was Hu Huifen who called and asked her, "Xiao Li, are you and Yuan Chen up here? What took you so long?"

He watched Wen Li move the phone further away, sniffed, then put the phone back to his ear and said, "I'm coming up, Mom. I'll be there soon."

Hu Huifen said, "Hurry up, don't dawdle. Yuanchen has also been on the plane for several hours, give him a hand, don't tire him out. When you get home, open the door yourself, I'm cooking in the kitchen."

"knew."

After hanging up the phone, Wen Li took a few deep breaths and said in a compromising tone, "I don't object to you going to see An Wen, but can you wait a while? My mom has cooked for you, so you can go in and eat a little, even if it's just sitting for half an hour."

After a pause, seeing that Huo Yuanchen was still indifferent, she said a little desperately, "Huo Yuanchen, my parents have taken care of you before. Do you remember when you were in school, your father went on a business trip abroad, your grandfather was critically ill, and your mother asked my parents to take care of you for a week, and you stayed at my house at night. Can't you cooperate with me for once because of their age?"

Huo Yuanchen looked at her deeply for a long time, then reached out and took her hand, saying, "Let's go in together."

When they entered, Wen Yongjie had already made the tea. Seeing Huo Yuanchen coming in, he asked him to sit down. "Come, try the new tea that Wen Li bought for me. It's the authentic Longjing before the rain."

Huo Yuanchen took the teacup and took a sip. The taste was just so-so. Any kind of tea he had at home tasted better than this tea.

He put down the teacup with a calm expression.

Wen Yongjie asked him, "How does it taste? This tea is quite expensive. I usually can't bear to drink it."

Wen Li quickly winked at Huo Yuanchen, with a pleading look in his eyes.

His eyes flickered, and he answered Wen Yongjie's question politely, "I don't know much about tea, but I drink this tea, it's okay."

Wen Yongjie was very happy and kept asking him to drink tea. "If you like, drink two more cups. Don't be polite. It's like being at home."

Seeing that Huo Yuanchen had no intention of taking a second sip, Wen Li hurried over to smooth things over and said, "Dad, if you only let him drink tea, he will be full and won't be able to eat."

Wen Yongjie slapped his head and said with a smile, "Look at me, I'm getting old and confused. Yuanchen, don't mind it."

While they were talking, Hu Huifen had already brought out the food and explained to Huo Yuanchen, "We prepared it too hastily, so there's nothing good to eat. Next time, let Wen Li tell me in advance, and Auntie will cook your favorite dishes for you."

Wen Li came out of the kitchen, holding two hot peppers in her hands, and said, "Mom, I forgot to put the peppers in the braised eggplant. I've washed them all. How about frying the eggplants in the pan?"

Hu Huifen said, "No need to add it, Yuanchen doesn't eat spicy food."

While eating, Huo Yuanchen looked at his phone from time to time.

Wen Li knew what he was waiting for, so he kicked the table and signaled him, "Eat more vegetables."

Huo Yuanchen symbolically put a little into his own bowl.

Wen Yongjie asked him a little worriedly, "Is it not to your taste? Otherwise, let Wen Li go out to eat with you, and don't worry about me and your aunt. You have been on the plane all day, you must be hungry, eat first."

Huo Yuanchen still answered him politely and distantly, "It's not that it doesn't suit my appetite. It's just that I don't really want to eat it."

Wen Li helped explain, "I sat for seven hours without any exercise, so I wasn't hungry at all. Besides, I had already eaten the meal on the plane, so I wasn't hungry at all."

Wen Yongjie said, "Then have some soup, tomato and egg soup, it's quite appetizing."

Huo Yuanchen took a small bowl and scooped up the soup, as if he was completing a task. He didn't even fill it up. He drank two sips and put down his chopsticks.

"Uncle and aunt, I'm full. Thank you for your hospitality. But I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

He stood up and said goodbye.

When Wen Li saw him off, he checked the time. It had been exactly half an hour since he entered the door.

He had a really good sense of timing.
