Huo Yuxuan looked at the person before him with confusion, his eyes filled with shock and bewilderment.
He knew Yu Jie'er; he had known her since childhood. However, he was certain he had made himself perfectly clear to her, and she had promised not to pester him anymore. Yet, he couldn't understand why Yu Jie'er was back, bothering him and now approaching Li Tian.
The situation was becoming increasingly troublesome.
By the time Huo Yuxuan regained his senses, Li Tian had already run far away.
Without a second thought, Huo Yuxuan immediately gave chase. His only thought was to catch up to her, explain everything, and then things would be settled.
Finally, he caught up to Li Tian, quickly grabbed her hand, and pulled her into a tight embrace. With a sincere expression, he said, "Li Tian, don't run anymore. I can explain everything. Please, don't be angry anymore, okay?"
The surroundings were silent. Li Tian didn't speak.
Huo Yuxuan grew more frightened, afraid that Li Tian truly didn't care anymore.
He looked at Li Tian and quickly said, "Li Tian, I can explain this matter."
Huo Yuxuan gazed at Li Tian, her face still etched with anger. He knew Li Tian was still upset, so he carefully recalled what he might have said wrong or what he needed to pay attention to.
"Li Tian, I honestly don't know what's going on with Yu Jie'er's appearance."
Li Tian remained silent. In fact, she had calmed down by the time she ran out. She simply looked at Huo Yuxuan and then calmly placed her phone in front of him, asking, "Then, what is this? Shouldn't you provide an explanation?"
Upon seeing the photo of him wearing a bathrobe, and then a photo of Yu Jie'er also in a bathrobe, Huo Yuxuan was stunned for a moment before speaking. "I was on my way to work when, for some reason, Yu Jie'er suddenly appeared. She threw the coffee she was holding directly at me."
Speaking of this, Huo Yuxuan looked wronged. "I was wearing the clothes you gave me. I usually don't wear them. I thought they were a gift from you, very precious. Today, thinking there was something important, I decided to wear them. I never expected something like this to happen, I didn't anticipate it."
"Also, Yu Jie'er is quite strange. Instead of using the wide road, she deliberately came towards me, dirtying my clothes and ruining my documents."
"Encountering Yu Jie'er is truly the worst kind of bad luck."
"Let me tell you, I've always had bad luck when I encounter Yu Jie'er, and it's still the same now. She's a toxic person."
Huo Yuxuan grumbled. He originally planned to continue complaining, but then he remembered that he needed to appease Li Tian first; other matters could wait.
As Huo Yuxuan spoke, a smile appeared on his face. He thought that after so many sincere explanations, Li Tian should forgive him.
The Li Tian of the past was easily appeased, so today's Li Tian should be even easier to appease.
However, this time, Li Tian seemed different. In the past, a word or two would suffice, but now it seemed ineffective.
Even after he had said so much, Li Tian's expression remained displeased.
At this moment, Huo Yuxuan grew anxious, wondering what to do.
"Li Tian, say something! Just say a word."
"You being silent, just looking like this, is very scary."
"Then, you can hit me. That's fine too."
Huo Yuxuan kept talking, seriously suspecting that today was the day he had spoken the most words.
"Huo Yuxuan, are you finished?"
"Huo Yuxuan, can you stop shaking me?"
"Li Tian, things are really not what you think. Can't you just forgive me?"
"Li Tian, I know I didn't handle this situation well, and I made you feel wronged. But I know I was wrong. I've handled it now, so please forgive me this once, okay?"
Li Tian looked at Huo Yuxuan, watching his anxious demeanor. For some reason, she suddenly started to smile, her smile growing wider.
Huo Yuxuan hugged Li Tian, saying happily, "You forgive me, right? I knew you would forgive me."
Li Tian nodded.
In fact, while Huo Yuxuan was talking, Li Tian had already thought everything through and understood.
Just then, Huo Yuxuan's phone rang. Li Tian suddenly remembered that Huo Yuxuan had work matters to attend to. She had kept him all this time, focusing on her. What about his work?
As Li Tian tried to leave, Huo Yuxuan tightly held her hand, his eyes fixed on her, as if pleading, "Don't go."
Li Tian worried that if she moved any further, Huo Yuxuan might even hang up his phone, neglecting his work.
Concerned that Huo Yuxuan might act impulsively, Li Tian placed her hand on his, giving him a reassuring look, as if to say, "Don't worry, I'm here. Take your time."
Huo Yuxuan put down the phone. It was then that Li Tian noticed a balloon floating in the sky. On it, it read: "Li Tian, I love you."
At that moment, An Nuan and the others emerged from the side.
Li Tian was completely stunned.
Li Tian didn't know why, but she forcefully broke free from Huo Yuxuan's grasp and ran off.
Huo Yuxuan was completely taken aback. He truly hadn't expected something like this to happen, especially to him.
However, fortunately, An Nuan was there. An Nuan caught up to Li Tian and said, "Li Tian, what's wrong? Huo Yuxuan is proposing to you right now. Why are you running?"
Li Tian's face instantly turned bright red. She knew what Huo Yuxuan intended to do, but she felt embarrassed with so many people present. Her face flushed instantly.
Of course, her heart was filled with joy.
Seeing Li Tian's nervousness, An Nuan smiled and said, "Li Tian, when Nangong Jin proposed to me, you were the one cheering the loudest. What's wrong? Is it different when it's your turn?"
