Chapter 4. I really regret those two times with you

Huo Yuanchen didn't say anything, but opened the car door and let Wen Li get out.

If he still had any attachment to her body just now, it was gone now.

He has no shortage of women, so why should he waste the family's resources on a scheming woman?

Later, he did what he said. Even though Wen Li met him several times at school, he acted very indifferent every time. Even when she took the initiative to greet him, he ignored her, as if there had never been any intimate relationship between them.

Later, he went on a business trip abroad for two months for a project. When he returned to Haishi, the first snow of the year had just fallen.

Haishi University is celebrating its 100th anniversary. Many buildings from a hundred years ago are still preserved on the campus, with red tiles and white snow, giving it a unique charm.

Wen Li was taking promotional photos for the school. In order to capture the snow scene well, he half-knelt on the sidewalk without caring about his image, holding up his camera to take pictures of the snow on the roof of the teaching building.

Just after finishing the filming, I suddenly heard someone calling Huo Yuanchen's name. I was startled and looked in the direction of the voice. I saw Huo Yuanchen wearing a dark grey cashmere coat, standing tall in the snow scene, with one hand casually inserted in the coat pocket. There seemed to be snowflakes on his shoulders that had not yet melted. He was dressed in cold weather, with clear and elegant features and a cold look.

Although it was a busy street, he seemed to be born under the spotlight. The passers-by who came and went became his background, and he was the only one attracting attention.

Wen Li was delighted and was walking over to say hello, but a figure stopped in front of Huo Yuanchen before her.

The girl with a big red bow in her hair held an ice cream cone in each hand and said excitedly, "I bought two flavors, matcha and strawberry. Brother Yuanchen, which one do you like?"

The two of them were very close to each other. The girl was petite, with her toes slightly raised, her face raised and she tried to look up at Huo Yuanchen. If it weren't for the two ice creams, this posture would have looked like asking for a kiss.

Huo Yuanchen lowered his head in cooperation, his eyes swept across the girl's face with a faint smile, "What about you? What flavor do you like?"

Wen Li's face turned pale when she caught a glimpse of the smile on his face.

She couldn't help but look at the girl carefully. She was wearing a white down jacket, a red plaid skirt, and a big rabbit backpack. She was full of youthful and lively spirit. She would act coquettishly, act cute, and stomp her feet to complain to Huo Yuanchen.

"Brother Yuanchen knows that I have difficulty making choices. You should choose first, and I'll take care of the rest."

Her eyes curved like two little crescent moons.

Compared with the girls, Wen Li looked much more mature. This was not a good thing, as men generally preferred younger women.

Perhaps it was because Wen Li's gaze was too complicated. Huo Yuanchen raised his head slightly and saw her resentful expression across the street.

She is used to being bright and flamboyant, and rarely shows any complaints, which makes her seem rather pitiful.

Huo Yuanchen looked away expressionlessly and took the strawberry-flavored ice cream from the girl. "I choose this."

The girl cheered and couldn't wait to take a bite of another ice cream.

Soon she started to act like a spoiled brat by shaking Huo Yuanchen's arm again, "I regret it. Matcha flavor is not good. Brother Yuanchen, I want to eat the ice cream in your hand."

Huo Yuanchen handed the ice cream to her, but she refused to take it. Instead, she took a big bite from the man's hand, exclaimed "It's so cold" at first, and then squinted her eyes in satisfaction.

"Brother Yuanchen's is still more delicious."

Because of Meng Jinnian, Wen Li had met him several times before she had a relationship with Huo Yuanchen. Every time he looked aloof, she thought he was just a natural and serious person, and never thought he could do something like exchanging ice cream with others.

Sure enough, likes and dislikes are clear at a glance.

Wen Li felt that her plan to use her body to get Pratt from Huo Yuanchen again was likely to fail.

I couldn't help feeling lost and anxious. Before I knew it, Huo Yuanchen and his female companion had already walked away side by side.

But considering the time, her father had very little medicine left. Wen Li was really unsure about finding another way to get Pratt at this time .

Compared with face and father's health, there is no need to think about which is more important.

Wen Li gritted his teeth and chased after him.

"Professor Huo, can I talk to you?"

In the office, Huo Yuanchen said expressionlessly, "What do you want to talk about?"

Wen Li didn't say anything. He turned around and closed the door first, then walked towards Huo Yuanchen step by step, his eyes were wet and his eyelashes were blinking as he looked at him.

"Professor Huo, we haven't seen each other for so long, don't you... miss me?"

The word "want" was dragged out by her in a charming and delicate way, so soft that it could soften a person's bones.

But Huo Yuanchen was unmoved. He just looked Wen Li up and down with a cold gaze and said indifferently, "I'm really not interested in you like this."

Wen Li paused.

She came to work today. The road was slippery on a snowy day, so she wore wide overalls and flat shoes for easy movement. She had just knelt on the snow to take pictures, and there was a ball of black mud on her knees that could not be wiped off. She looked miserable and indeed not pretty.

But she quickly adjusted herself, smiled, curved her eyes, and asked meaningfully, "How does Professor Huo like me? I will dress the way Professor Huo likes me."

The flirting meaning of this statement was obvious. Huo Yuanchen only raised the corner of his mouth coldly and said in a light tone, "I don't like you no matter what you look like. Wen Li, you will only mean trouble to me."

Wen Li's face was a little stiff, and she was also confused. She tried to force a smile, "Why did Professor Huo say that? Wasn't Professor Huo satisfied with the two times he had sex with me?"

"Do you know why I'm on a business trip for so long this time?" Huo Yuanchen's voice became more and more indifferent, "Meng Jinnian has been pestering me all the time. I'm really annoyed by him and have no choice but to go abroad to hide."

Finally, he added, "Wen Li, I really regret what I did to you twice. From now on, please respect yourself."

Now Wen Li was too embarrassed to stay any longer.

During these two months, Meng Jinnian came to see her several times at the beginning, but she was determined to break up, and Lin Ruoyuan also pestered Meng Jinnian a lot, so gradually, Meng Jinnian stopped coming to see her.

She was secretly glad that she had broken up with Meng Jinnian so easily. She really didn't know that Meng Jinnian had harassed Huo Yuanchen and forced him to flee abroad to find peace and quiet.

"I'm sorry, Professor Huo, for causing you trouble." Wen Li apologized solemnly.

Pratt was monopolized by the Huo family. Even if she could no longer get the medicine from Huo Yuanchen, she dared not offend him.

When she came out of Huo Yuanchen's office, Wen Li felt that she looked "dejected". She was so depressed that she was distracted when she walked. She didn't notice that the snow on the ground had been stepped on and turned into ice. She slipped and fell on her butt.

What was worse was that the loose overalls she was wearing got caught on a holly branch, leaving a big tear in her eye.

Wen Li hurriedly called her friend who was a university teacher, explained the situation, and asked Zhou Ying to help her buy a new pair of pants.

"No problem. I don't have class next period. Just send me the size and I'll buy it for you."

Zhou Ying thought for a moment and added, "You can't go anywhere in your torn pants, so why don't you come to my office and wait. There's no one else here, so you don't have to worry about being embarrassed by being seen."

Wen Li was overjoyed and went to Zhou Ying's office immediately.

When she fell, a lot of snow got on her pants. The heating in the office was turned on high, and after the snow melted, her pants were wet and could not be worn.

Wen Li thought that she was the only one here, so she might as well take off her dirty pants. Even if Zhou Ying came back, there was nothing to hide from her since they were close friends who had grown up together.

Who would have thought that just as I took off my pants, the office door was pushed open from outside.

She thought it was Zhou Ying, so she stood up to greet her, but she saw Huo Yuanchen walking in from outside, dressed in Ling Han.

Their eyes met, and his cold gaze fell on her straight and slender legs. He still looked meticulous, but overall he looked frivolous.

Wen Li subconsciously took a step back.
