Chapter 95 - Sharing the Same Room (3)

“I had a meeting over at City Lin. I recalled that your filming location is right here, so I thought I’d swing by,” explained Huo YanXiao simply. Then, he leaned down at all of a sudden, locked onto her eyes and asked, “Qin ZiMing looked for you?”

Nie AnAn’s heart sank a bit. She then nodded and said, “Mmm.”

“Did he say anything?” asked Huo YanXiao again.

Nie AnAn was going to mention about the engagement, but now with Huo YanXiao looking deeply into her eyes, Nie AnAn’s heart was beating without rhythm. Her mind drew blank all of a sudden and she said, “No, nothing.”

“I saw him yesterday evening,” said Huo YanXiao with his lips curving slightly upward. There was a hint of cheerfulness in his voice. “AnAn, if he dares bully you again, I will beat him up with you.”

Nie AnAn’s eyes widened and she looked at Huo YanXiao in disbelief. “Big Brother, so you knew about it?”

“I didn’t exactly see the damage you’ve done to his face. He had a face mask on, but I am sure it looks bad.” Huo YanXiao sat up straight, stood up, and walked over to sit on the other bed.

“I didn’t see it either. The lights were bad at the time. I left after I struck him.” Having said that, Nie AnAn felt a bit embarrassed. “I didn’t even remember that I hit him on his face.”

“That was very well done,” said Huo YanXiao. “He was supposed to be here for this filming, but as he wasn’t presentable, I am here to replace him.”

Nie AnAn looked up and asked, “Big Brother, do you feel that I am too violent?”

Before she had transmigrated, she had always been taught to be a good girl and the standard for a good girl is to be cute and docile. 

Nie AnAn had never been in a fight in her 18 years of life. 

“You don’t need to hold back if you were being bullied.” Huo YanXiao’s imposing manner changed all of a sudden. The way he was looking at Nie AnAn became more serious. “AnAn, no matter who bullies you in the future, you have no need to hold back. I will be there to back you when you hit someone.”

Nie AnAn’s eyes beamed all of a sudden. “Thank you, Big Brother.”

Having said that, she finally told him what Qin ZiMing had said to her. “I hadn’t planned on hitting him. But what he said just made me mad.”

“What did he say?” asked Huo YanXiao gently. 

“He said you are only engaged to me because Uncle Qin promised you shares to the Qin’s. And that you would still choose to be engaged to me for the sake of the shares even if you see him and me together.”

Having said that, Nie AnAn felt that her heart had been suspended into the air. Deep down inside of her, she did have some anticipation and desire for an answer. It was a feeling that she could not quite describe. 

After hearing her words, Huo YanXiao paused for a little bit. Then, coldness appeared in his eyes. “I see.”

Having said that, he suddenly turned to look at her. “Then did you believe him, AnAn?”

Nie AnAn reflexively gripped the blanket under her tightly.

“No, I didn’t. Which was why I hit him,” said Nie AnAn, but her tone has some uncertainty in it. 

“I would not trade my marriage for the shares,” said Huo YanXiao as he looked at her. “Our engagement has nothing to do with the Qin’s share.”

Even though that had confirmed what she had always believed in, hearing it directly from the man in front of her still made Nie AnAn ecstatic. 

The blanket had wrinkled under the grip. Listening to the rain outside the window, Nie AnAn wanted to ask more questions. 

But Huo YanXiao’s cellphone rang. 

It sounded like some work call. He picked up the phone and used a lot of jargon. 

Looking at the man’s tall and straight silhouette, Nie AnAn slowly burrowed herself under the blanket. Her lips, now covered up by the blanket, started to curve upward. 

After his call, Huo YanXiao saw that Nie AnAn had already settled into the bed. He walked over and turned the light off. “Goodnight, AnAn.”

“Goodnight, Big Brother,” said Nie AnAn, her voice was muffled under the blanket

It was dark in the room so one’s hearing became particularly alert. 

Nie AnAn could hear that the man, not even half a meter from her, sat down on the bed. His breathing was clear and shallow.

Extra (submitted by Chinese reader Mother Mouse of Planet Meow):

Qin ZiMing: Why am I the one always getting hurt?

AnAn: Because you ask for it.

Qin ZiMing: But Huo YanXiao is the villain!

AnAn: Says who?

Qin ZiMing: Well, just look at the title “The Villain's Younger Sister”.

AnAn: I am not that sister. You are overthinking it. 

Nie ChengFeng: Um, are you saying that I am the villain?

Qin ZiMing: I don’t care. One of you must be on the receiving end of this. I can’t be the only one always getting hurt.

Nie ChengFeng: Hello, my brother-in-law, from now on the Nie’s will work with you. Let’s just leave the Qin’s alone.

Huo YanXiao: Works for me.

Qin ZiMing: You.l. you… you can’t do that!

Author: How are you so silly? Looks like I need to torture you some more. Else you’d never see the truth as it is.

Qin ZiMing: Tsk….
