The whole morning after, Jesse had practically searched the entire horse ranch but hadn’t seen the person he’s been longing for. As for calling that person, he had already tried, but the call wouldn’t go through. If by now he still can’t figure out that soone is purposely avoiding him, then he’s simply an idiot, or rather, couldn’t be more foolish.
Unable to suppress the anger deep inside, he directly threw the phone in his hand to the ground.
"Damn it, Lin Mubai, just you wait."
At the sa ti, soone was slowly approaching him: "Hello, are you Mu Bai’s friend?"
Considering the appearance of the person, Huo Bingxuan asked in sowhat fluent English.
Huo Bingxuan had noticed this man following Lin Mubai into the ranch earlier, but she didn’t approach because she feared seeing that man’s look of disgust. However, not approaching doesn’t an she would completely ignore him. She kept absentmindedly paying attention to the man’s situation and found him quite strange, continuously circling the ranch on horseback as if searching for sothing, while the two people who ca with him were nowhere to be seen.
Just thinking about that handso man and his indifferent look still pained her, and when she thought of the other woman’s bright smile, the pain in her heart was instantly replaced by intense hatred. She hated An Nan; why did she have to appear? If not for her appearance, that handso man would definitely be standing by her side.
Lately, she intentionally distanced herself from that circle, but it doesn’t an she knows nothing.
She knows those two have beco an item.
Upon hearing this news one night, she drank heavily until she was drunk, then rested in her brother’s embrace and let out a good cry. Yet when she woke up, she found her heart still hurt.
She’s also tried to convince herself to let go, but found she just couldn’t.
Not wanting to et again today, yet in that mont just now, she discovered her dead heart was suddenly pounding again, even feeling an urge to snatch that man back. Ultimately, she suppressed this impulse.
She kept telling herself in her heart that that man no longer belongs to her, he already belongs to another man.
But upon seeing this handso mixed-race man, she realized she was seeing hope once more.
Jesse turned his head imdiately upon hearing the voice and saw a quite pretty woman. He wasn’t very interested in her; he was only interested in the na she ntioned—Mu Bai? Calling him so intimately, they must be familiar. Then, what might their relationship be?
Friend? Forr girlfriend? Secret admirer?
The second and third possibilities seem more likely.
Thinking of this, a trace of oddity gradually flashed through Jesse’s eyes. In his heart, he hoped it was the second possibility.
"Who are you?" The man’s fluent Chinese surprised Huo Bingxuan, but she quickly snapped out of her shock and began introducing herself: "Hello, my na is Huo Bingxuan. I just saw you co in with Mu Bai and the others, and now see you have been wandering alone here for quite a while, so I wanted to ask if you need any help?"
"Thank you. I do need help. You know Mu Bai? What’s the nature of your relationship?" Jesse asked casually.
But he sharply noticed the struggle in her eyes at the ntion of that na, and instantly understood.
