He had only been away for a short while, and his child's godmother almost got kidnapped! How could he not be angry? He was furious!
"Is it even time for breakfast yet?"
Yu Suihuan had no idea what Wang Zhaoran was upset about, but she could clearly sense the murderous aura radiating from him. Could it be that Huo Yaojun had provoked him? Otherwise, how could she explain the way he had looked at Huo Yaojun just now?
"Have you eaten breakfast?"
"Uh, not yet!"
Yu Suihuan felt a mix of cowardice and guilt. Perhaps it was because Wang Zhaoran was in a bad mood, and she feared being caught in the crossfire.
"Come on, let's go have breakfast."
Wang Zhaoran pulled Yu Suihuan towards the cafeteria without room for argument.
Yu Suihuan had no choice but to follow him. What was going on with Wang Zhaoran? Had he had an unpleasant encounter with someone else? She felt like his mood was quite off.
As she followed him, she thought to herself, "Wang Zhaoran, slow down! I can't keep up!"
She was a bit out of breath.
Wang Zhaoran glanced back at her and slowed his pace but still didn’t say a word.
"What’s wrong with you? Just say it; we don’t need to hide anything from each other in this relationship."
Wang Zhaoran had never shown such anger in front of her, and Yu Suihuan felt a bit worried about him.
"Yu Suihuan, that Huo Yaojun is not harmless; he’s interested in you. Can’t you see that?"
"I can see it!"
"You can see it? Then why don’t you keep your distance from him! How can he compare to Yang Qinghe?"
After spending so much time together, Huo Yaojun had always regarded her as just a friend, and his way of speaking had become deeply ingrained.
"Wang Zhaoran, I know you care about me. But Yang Qinghe is no longer mine!"
Yu Suihuan smiled faintly. After all, Wang Zhaoran and Yang Qinghe had been together for so long; she thought he was speaking up for him.
"Are you annoyed with him? If you're afraid he'll bother you, just say you already have a boyfriend!"
"Hmm?"
"I can help you fend off the trouble!"
Wang Zhaoran felt satisfied just being a stand-in to shield her from trouble, even if he couldn't truly be in a relationship with her. A hint of bitterness lingered in his words, yet his gaze remained resolute. He knew that everything he did for her might never be acknowledged, but he was willing to accept that.
As long as Yu Suihuan's frown eased, everything he did would be worthwhile.
A complex emotion flickered in Yu Suihuan's eyes as she looked at Wang Zhaoran, warmth surging within her heart. It suddenly dawned on her that Wang Zhaoran's feelings for her might be far more than mere friendship. Perhaps he liked her but had never expressed it, holding back with a sense of restraint.
"Wang Zhaoran?"
"Hmm?"
"Do you like me?"
*Cough cough cough! Cough cough cough!* "Yes, after all, you're the mother of my child!"
"You know that's not what I meant!"
For now, compared to Huo Yaojun, she naturally trusted Wang Zhaoran more. But the problem was they were just too familiar with each other; even when apart, she would still bring him into her space.
"Yeah, but I don't deserve you!"
Wang Zhaoran's eyes suddenly dimmed.
"Who says you don't deserve it? It's not about deserving; it's about whether you're suitable."
Wang Zhaoran was ecstatic, but soon his expression dimmed once again.
"Yu Suihuan, we are friends, and all I wish for is your happiness! I, a worthless person, am content just to be by your side! As long as you can be happy, no matter who that person is, truly!"
Wang Zhaoran's smile was radiant, dazzling enough to blind anyone, yet it was tinged with bitterness.
"I was too impulsive today. If you think Huo Yaojun is a good match for you, then be brave and be with him! But if he dares to hurt you, I will be the first to make him pay!"
