"Why should I be?" bewildered, Huo Mian asked Nannan.

"But everyone's saying that Young Master Su has a thing for you."

"Those are just words, don't take them seriously. Su Yu has a bucket of girlfriends, and most of them are celebrities. He's just looking for a way out of boredom at our hospital. Don't make a fuss over it."

"Yeah, you're right. Mr. Su has so many women around him anyways. I don't think we'll have another chance to see him now that he's discharged," Nannan said, her expression grim.

Huo Mian smiled without saying anything else…

The best move for her was to avoid seeing Su Yu. Although Huo Siqian was not a good person, his warning made sense; she didn't want to be involved with a man like Su Yu.

Entertainment headlines for that day read: 'Su Yu, the president of Imperial Star, was discharged. Luxury cars welcomed him, and popular celebrities were all there celebrating the great occasion. It was like a movie festival.'

Apparently, A-tier celebrities including Zhao Qingya, Annie Liang, Li Sisi, Jian Tong, and Wen Yonghui were all there.

It was like a harem rivalry TV show…

In the end, Zhao Qingya was the one who sat with Su Yu in his car. Obviously, her status was slightly higher than the rest.

- Late Night -

The lights inside Su Yu's private mansion were all on, and the music was blasting on high. Dozens of pretty girls in bikinis danced around the pool.

A couple of men sat together in armchairs, one next to the other, enjoying the night as well as the beautiful women. The atmosphere was exhilarating.

However, Su Yu didn't seem to be in the mood to party. He held a glass of red wine in his hand, occasionally taking a sip.

His other hand scrolled through his phone, while his mind seemed to be elsewhere.

"What's wrong? You seem out of it tonight." Huo Siqian came up to him with a wine glass. He pulled up a chair and sat down across from Su Yu.

Su Yu immediately clicked on the home button and then locked his phone.

"It's boring, living the same life, day after day," Su Yu said casually.

"You were at the recuperation center for a while, you must have been bored to death."

"It was fine," Su Yu answered vaguely.

"How's my sister? Have you succeeded yet?" Huo Siqian asked.

Obviously depressed, Su Yu licked his lips and said, "I think your sister is a lesbian."

"Haha, why would you say that?" Huo Siqian burst into laughter.

"I don't think she likes men, and I'm too lazy to bother with her."

"So what you mean to say is, Mian rejected you?" Huo Siqian deduced.

"I think she rejected me to spark my interest. Aren't all women like that? Playing games of this sort."

"This just means that you don't know her well enough," Huo Siqian laughed again.

Su Yu immediately rolled his eyes at him. "You don't know her either. Don't forget, she hasn't been back to your family for years; she even made a public announcement about it."

Huo Siqian's expression changed, and he smiled bitterly. "Yeah, she's stubborn like that, and no one can do anything about it."

"But don't worry, any obstacles are only temporary. No woman that I like can escape from me, it's just a matter of time."

Su Yu seemed confident; he was rich, good-looking, and powerful, and he basically had everything any woman would want in the world.

He was sure that Huo Mian would one day fall for him…

After hearing what Su Yu said, Huo Siqian immediately stopped laughing and said, "I suggest that you give up on her."

"Why? You don't think I can take care of it?"

Huo Siqian shook his head, "That's not it. Mian… isn't a woman you can touch."

"F*ck, what the hell do you mean by that? What do you mean I can't touch her? There isn't a woman in C City I can't touch."

Su Yu became immediately angered by what he said…

"I'm not looking down on you. There's someone Mian likes, and she'll never accept you."

"I know, she told me that she has a boyfriend, but so what? People who get married can still divorce. Even if she has a daughter, I can still do it. I'm not willing to give up."

Then, Su Yu picked up his glass and drank every sip of his wine…

Huo Siqian looked at him meaningfully, "You don't know who she likes, do you?"

"Is that important?" Su Yu broke into laughter.

"Of course it is. Once you find out, you'll understand what I was talking about today."

"Why are you being so cryptic? Don't tell me that it's you." Su Yu looked at Huo Siqian profoundly.
