Chapter 18: Her Past (2.1)

When Yao Yao was sixteen, her grandfather, who raised her, suddenly passed away because of illness. It was a fatal blow to Yao Yao.

At that time, she had a boyfriend, Qin Yue, who was also her first love. Their relationship back then was very innocent, and Qin Yue truly treated her well. It could be said that Qin Yue supported her through that period of time.

Yao Yao had been a beauty since she was young. Not only was she beautiful, she was also extremely intelligent. Qin Yue treated her like a treasure, and took good care of her. Other than her grandfather, Yao Yao had never been pampered like this since she was young. And so, she also gave herself to Qin Yue.

She once thought that one’s family background wasn’t that important, so she told him honestly what her family did. On the other hand, Qin Yue’s family was just an ordinary family who had to earn their living.

The disagreements between the two of them started when both of them were in university. She got into S University, and Qin Yue chose the university in the neighbouring province. More and more people were pursuing Yao Yao, but she naturally rejected them firmly. However, the seed of distrust gradually grew in Qin Yue’s heart, and Qin Yue would quarrel with her, then they would reconcile, then quarrel and reconcile repeatedly.

In the end, Yao Yao took the earliest flight to look for Qin Yue, and the two of them sat opposite each other in a cafe.

“Let’s break up,” Qin Yue said.

From the moment she got off the plane, Qin Yue never said anything that showed concern for her. Rather, that was the first thing he said.

Huo Konghe’s family situation was much worse than Qin Yue, but Huo Konghe was ambitious. Yao Yao was willing to choose him because of this, but at the same time, she was afraid that Huo Konghe would be even more insecure, like Qin Yue had been, if he discovered her background. That was why she deliberately hid her identity.

When Yao Yao woke up in the morning, she found that her eyes seemed to be swollen, and her head hurt badly.

She tried her best to recall what had happened. She seemed to have a dream last night… and then…

And then she seemed to have done it with Huo Konghe?

Yao Yao wasn’t sure, but she had more important things to deal with. She called her assistant and instructed her to change the meeting today to a video conference.

Hearing some movements in the bedroom, Huo Konghe went upstairs. Seeing that Yao Yao was on the phone, he walked over quietly and sat by the bed.

Yao Yao looked at him awkwardly after the call, and asked him carefully.

“Last night…”

Huo Konghe said honestly, “You cried very hard last night. Then, when you woke up, you wanted to do it with me. Halfway through, you fell asleep.”

Yao Yao collapsed on the bed and sighed, feeling too embarrassed to look at him.

Huo Konghe looked at his watch. “I should go to class. Are you fine staying alone at home?”

Yao Yao said gloomily under the blanket, “I won’t send you off then. My head hurts.”

Huo Konghe pulled down the blanket, revealing her messy head and fair face, and kissed her gently on the lips.

“Rest well. There is porridge in the pot, and last night’s dinner is also in the fridge. You can heat it up and eat it.”

Yao Yao covered the blanket shyly again, and said goodbye to him.

After Huo Konghe left, Yao Yao lay on the bed again and started to catch up on sleep.
