My Youth Began With Him

3756 So Many Shameless People These Days 26

“Be serious. Today’s not April Fool’s Day.”

Huo Mian didn’t take Zhu Lingling’s words seriously, thinking the woman was playing a prank on her.

“I’m serious.” Zhu Lingling’s tone was very calm.

“You must swear, if you lie to me...”

Before Huo Mian could finish, Zhu Lingling continued calmly, “If I lie to you...I’ll never reach cup C size in my life.”

“You, you, you... are serious... if you can take this oath.”

“Are you in the hospital? I’ll go and see you.” Zhu Lingling’s spirits were very low.

“Yeah, I am. Come and we’ll talk.”

Hanging up, Huo Mian immediately called Gao Ran.

“Mian, there’s no progress with the investigation yet. If I find something, I’ll tell you immediately. Qin Chu and I are both working on it.”

Gao Ran thought Huo Mian called to ask about the investigation of the force behind Su Yu’s car crash, but he was mistaken.

“Gao Ran, did you fight with Lingling?”

“Huh? No...” Gao Ran was surprised.

“Then... are you in a cold war?”

“No...” Gao Ren recalled carefully and didn’t remember anything out of ordinary.

“Um... is your sex life normal?” Huo Mian thought hard and almost laughed at herself when she asked this question.

Gao Ran: “...”

“Huo Mian, are you messing with me?”

“No, truly I’m not. I just wanted to understand the status of your marriage.”

“We’re fine.”

Gao Ran guessed their twice-a-month sex life wasn’t active but quite normal according to some experts in the States.

“Fine. That’s all.”

“Why did you ask all those questions?” Gao Ran was puzzled since he knew Huo Mian wasn’t a nosy person. He felt uneasy.

“Oh, um... I was bored and wanted to do research for my Little Bean to see if her future in-laws are getting along well.”

Huo Mian used the bullshit to disguise her true intentions.

Confused, Gao Ran cocked his head and thought hard after the call ended.

Hanging up, Huo Mian also wondered about the situation.

One of them wanted a divorce but the other was totally oblivious.

Was it possible that...?

An unspeakable idea flashed across her mind and she decided to demand some answers from Zhu Lingling when she was here.

One hour later, Zhu Lingling drove to the South Side Recuperation Center alone and went up to Huo Mian’s office.

“Hello, Sister Lingling.”

Chen Jie saw Zhu Lingling and thought she was here to see Su Yu.

“Hi. Is Mian in there?”

“Yes. You can go in now.”

Zhu Lingling nodded, looking dispirited.

It was autumn and quite cool in this northern city. Wearing dark grey sports pants and jacket, she kept the brim of her black cap low on her face.

When she entered, Huo Mian had just finished making a pot of flower tea.

“You come just in time. I made us flower tea.” Huo Mian said with a smile.

“I don’t want flower tea. Do you have arsenic trioxide? Give me some.” Zhu Lingling tossed her bag onto the sofa and stretched herself beside it.

“Pu...” Huo Mian almost spewed out the flower tea she had just taken.
