Chapter 180: The School Belle Looking for the School Hunk

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Murong Qiao followed the GPS nervously and arrived at the School of Finance.

She remembered that Huo Yichen was a finance student. She asked the students along the way and finally found it.

“Isn’t that the school belle from the School of Management department? Why is she here?”

“She must be here to look for the school hunk. Didn’t the two of them stick to each other every day for the past few days?”

Although Murong Qiao was not officially named the school belle, the students were already very familiar with her. Now that they saw her come to the School of Finance, the gossip spirit in their bodies was restless.

No matter how one looked at it, it was gossip worthy that the prettiest girl in the Department of Management had come to look for School Hunk Huo!

“From a market perspective, economic trends are declining, but from a demand perspective…”

Murong Qiao found Huo Yichen’s classroom. As soon as she approached, she heard the teacher’s lecture.

The classroom was on the first floor, so Murong Qiao stood outside obediently and looked at Huo Yichen through the window.

This was the first time she had seen Huo Yichen sitting in class seriously.

His serious gaze was focused on the blackboard. His slender hand was holding a pen as he drew notes on the paper. He didn’t pay attention to the gazes of the outside world at all. His expression was so cold that no one dared to speak to him. There were even very few people sitting beside him.

Huo Yichen looked completely different from when he was with her in class.

Murong Qiao blinked. For the first time, she realized what Huo Yichen was like without her.

Ding!

When the bell rang, Murong Qiao turned her attention back to the entrance of the building and caught sight of Huo Yichen.

The wave of people surging out after class was quite strong, so Murong Qiao had no choice but to stand beside the building door and wait. But she didn’t know that many people’s gazes were subconsciously drifting towards her.

“That’s the girl who’s flirting with Huo Yichen. She looks much prettier than the one on the forum.”

“She reminds me of my first love. It’s a pity that School Hunk Huo has taken a fancy to her. Otherwise, I would have tried to chase after her.”

“Did you go crazy from fantasizing about girls? Why don’t you take a look at yourself? Do you think you’re worthy of being the school belle’s boyfriend?” Murong Qiao couldn’t hear the discussions around her as she was only focused on searching for the familiar figure in the crowd.

She waited for a while until the crowd thinned out and she began to wonder if she had missed Huo Yichen. Only then did she see him slowly walk out of the building.

“Huo Yichen!” Murong Qiao couldn’t help calling out to him.

Her voice instantly attracted Huo Yichen’s attention and made him look up in the direction of the voice.

When he saw Murong Qiao standing at the door and looking at him, even Huo Yichen was surprised.

He didn’t expect Murong Qiao to take the initiative to look for him.

“You came to find me?” Huo Yichen quickened his pace and walked up to Murong Qiao.

Murong Qiao could tell that there was a hint of excitement and happiness in Huo Yichen’s voice, but it was mostly restraint. He restrained this excitement and the joy he felt when he saw her.

“Yes.” Murong Qiao nodded. “I’ve been thinking about you.”

She was telling the truth. Because her mind was on Huo Yichen, Murong Qiao’s thoughts had often drifted these past few days.

After hearing Murong Qiao’s words, Huo Yichen’s eyes lit up, and even the coldness in his expression disappeared. He simply couldn’t help but smile.

“Let’s talk over there.” Huo Yichen restrained his excitement and gestured for them to talk at another place.

He was very happy that Murong Qiao took the initiative to look for him, but after sensing the gossiping gazes of the surrounding students, he realized that this was not a good place to talk.

The two of them thus moved from the teaching building to the park beside the field. It was noon, and the students had gone to eat lunch so there were very few people around.

“You haven’t come to see me in a long time,” Murong Qiao said in a low voice.

She stood in front of Huo Yichen, but her eyes were fixed on her toes, not looking at the person in front of her.

It was undeniable that Murong Qiao knew that she was worried about Huo Yichen, but other than that, she was also angry that her texts had not been replied to.

This feeling made her wonder if the patient manner in which Huo Yichen treated her previously and the things he said to her was a joke.

“I sent you a message, but you didn’t reply.” Murong Qiao’s voice was very soft. “I haven’t seen you look for me since I returned to school.”

She spoke so slowly that one couldn’t help but focus and listen. “That’s why I came to look for you.”

Worry, anger, and grievance were Murong Qiao’s feelings.

But now that Huo Yichen was in front of her, Murong Qiao didn’t know what to say.

Huo Yichen’s enthusiasm and coldness gave rise to two completely different thoughts in Murong Qiao’s heart, making her stand in front of him helplessly, not even daring to look up at his face.

“Sorry.” A sigh came from above. It was Huo Yichen.

Before Murong Qiao could react, her face was held by Huo Yichen’s broad hand and she was forced to look up at him.

Her eyes met a pair of gentle eyes, and her body stiffened.

Forced to close the distance between them, Murong Qiao smelled the soul-stirring cold fragrance again.

“I’m sorry that I didn’t reply to you after so long,” Huo Yichen apologized seriously.

He looked at Murong Qiao with gentle and invasive eyes without blinking, expressing his apology.

However, Murong Qiao was a little distracted. Her body stiffened, and she seemed to be able to hear the heartbeat in her chest.

This was the first time she had observed Huo Yichen’s face so closely. She observed that he seemed to have changed a lot from high school.

He had grown a lot taller. When he was in high school, Murong Qiao could barely be at the same height as him, but now, he had become so tall that she had to look up to see him.

His body had also become much stronger. Perhaps it was because he had always been working in high school and worried about his mother’s condition, but at that time, Huo Yichen looked far less energetic in his school uniform than the other boys. His entire body appeared a little empty. But now, even without looking carefully, one could sense the muscles and shape of his abdomen, making Murong Qiao blush just by looking at him.

She vaguely remembered that many students said that they were craving School Hunk Huo’s body and his eight-pack abs.

It seemed to be quite easy to touch…

“Qiaoqiao?” Huo Yichen’s voice sounded.

Murong Qiao’s thoughts instantly returned, including her scattered imaginations.

Wait, what was she thinking!

“Yes, yes…” Murong Qiao nodded carelessly, but the blush on her face didn’t disappear.

“My phone is broken. I replaced it with a new one recently, so I couldn’t contact you in time,” Huo Yichen explained.

He didn’t say that his cell phone had been maliciously damaged when he returned to the Huo Family. He only wanted to express his apology. “I’ve been a little busy these past few days. I’m sorry to make you worry like this.”

“I definitely won’t let you worry like this in the future, and I won’t lose contact with you for a few days. I guarantee that you can contact me 24 hours a day,” Huo Yichen promised seriously.

Murong Qiao listened to Huo Yichen’s explanation, then watched as he nervously took out a brand new cell phone from his pocket and explained to her in a flustered tone.

“I believe you.” She looked at the apologetic look on Huo Yichen’s face and nodded.

Murong Qiao believed in Huo Yichen and the explanation he gave. She didn’t ask how his cell phone broke, nor did she ask what he had been doing these past few days.

As long as she knew that he was fine and didn’t encounter any danger, she would be very relieved..
