Love is as vast as the Milky Way, impossible to cross.

Chapter 185 This little girl really knows how to pick her timing.

Wang Qing thought for a moment and said:

"Xiao Fan, the most important thing for you right now is to get well. Once you're recovered, we can find an opportunity to have a good talk with Huo Muchen."

Xu Xiaofan had no other choice but to reluctantly nod.

"Still no news from Shion?"

Gu Heng's voice echoed in the bar's private room, tinged with worry.

He sat down next to Huo Muchen, his eyes fixed on Huo Muchen, hoping to get some good news from him.

Huo Muchen paused slightly upon hearing Liu Shiyin's name, as if the name had stirred up some deep-seated memories within him. He gently shook his head.

Gu Heng sighed, seemingly unsurprised by the outcome. He was about to press for more information when Xu Xiaofan suddenly appeared and interrupted him:

"Brother Mu Chen!"

Xu Xiaofan's voice carried a hint of urgency and joy as she quickly walked to Huo Muchen's side, her face beaming with a bright smile.

Seeing this, Gu Heng couldn't help but roll his eyes, muttering to himself:

"This little girl really knows how to pick her timing."

Xu Xiaofan seemed oblivious to Gu Heng's displeasure; she simply sat down next to Huo Muchen.

"Brother Mu Chen, how's your injury? The doctor said you shouldn't drink so much alcohol,"

Huo Muchen looked at Xu Xiaofan. He knew her feelings for him and understood that everything she did was to attract his attention. However, his heart had already been occupied by Liu Shiyin and could no longer accommodate anyone else.

"I will take responsibility for your injuries. I've already given your father several projects that he can collaborate on with the Huo family, as compensation. Don't keep bothering me like this in the future."

Huo Muchen's words struck Xu Xiaofan like a hammer blow. Her expectant gaze instantly dimmed, and her face turned pale. She bit her lip tightly, trying hard not to let her tears fall.

"Brother Mu Chen, do you...do you really hate me that much?"

Xu Xiaofan's voice trembled slightly. She couldn't believe her ears. Being rejected like this, Xu Xiaofan's embarrassment and humiliation were palpable.

"I don't dislike it, but I certainly don't,"

A flicker of disappointment and resentment crossed her eyes. But she didn't give up; instead, her resolve only strengthened.

"Brother Mu Chen, I don't care who you have in your heart, I just hope you can give me a chance. I will prove that I am more suitable for you than Liu Shiyin!"

Gu Heng listened to their conversation from the side and couldn't help but feel helpless.

He knew how deep Huo Muchen's feelings for Liu Shiyin were, and he also knew Xu Xiaofan's persistence and determination. However, matters of the heart are ultimately not something outsiders can interfere with.

He sensed something was off, so he made an excuse and slipped out.

"You guys continue chatting, I suddenly remembered I have something to take care of, so I'll have to go now."

After saying that, he quickly turned around and left the private room of the bar.

"How do you know her? How do you know her name is Liu Shiyin?"

Huo Muchen's sudden question caught Xu Xiaofan off guard. He turned his head, looking at Xu Xiaofan with a serious expression.

Xu Xiaofan was stunned by Huo Muchen's gaze. Seeing how concerned he was about Liu Shiyin, the fire of jealousy in her heart burned even brighter.

She abruptly raised her head, looking directly into Huo Muchen's eyes, her voice laced with provocation and anger:

"I like you so much, I know everything about you, why are you still so worried about her? She's been gone for so long, why are you still thinking about her?"

"Yes, I can't forget her, and I won't forget her. She must have had her reasons for leaving. I will wait for her to come back."

Seeing Huo Muchen's deep affection, Xu Xiaofan's resentment and jealousy grew even stronger.

"She won't come back. She doesn't want you anymore. She's with another man."

Xu Xiaofan's voice carried a hint of malice and provocation. She wanted to use this method to provoke Huo Muchen and make him give up waiting for Liu Shiyin.
