Huo Yu raised a mocking smile and sneered, "To be exact, I am Xu Yan's cousin!"

Tang Jing widened her eyes, as if she couldn't believe her ears.

She stared at the man in front of her with astonishment.

She could never have imagined that this man was actually Ji Xuyan's cousin!

It took a long time for Tang Jing to come back to her senses.

She picked up the coffee cup on the table and took a sip carefully, trying to calm her inner turmoil.

Then, she slowly put down the cup, crossed her hands naturally in front of her chest, took a deep breath, and tried to make her voice sound calm and firm:

"If I had known that the person I was going to meet today was you, I wouldn't have come at all."

Going on a blind date with him would piss her off to death!

Huo Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of contempt and disdain in his eyes.

He shrugged and responded in a cold tone: "Don't worry, I don't want to come either. This is all my mother's idea."

He and Tang Jing were college classmates.

During those green years, there was a period of ambiguity between them.

In her senior year, Tang Jing repeatedly bullied her schoolmate Lin Chuxia, who had a crush on her, because of some reasons.

This led to a fierce quarrel between the two, and their relationship broke down.

Since then, Huo Yu's opinion of Tang Jing has completely changed.

She was labeled as a "tiger mom" in my heart.

Over the years, both of them have been in the entertainment industry.

But Tang Jing became an actor and had her own studio.

And he is the chairman of "Starlight" Entertainment.

Due to their different fields of work, the two did not have much interaction.

Even if they meet occasionally, they will pretend not to know each other like strangers.

For a moment, the two fell into deathly silence.

After a while, Tang Jing finally broke the silence and said slowly: "I didn't expect that after so many years, we can still meet in this way."

There was a hint of emotion and helplessness in her voice.

"Yeah, it's really fate." Huo Yu couldn't help but sigh.

His eyes revealed a complex emotion, including nostalgia for the past and helplessness.

Tang Jing took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Then he suggested: "In this case, let's just treat it as a reunion of old classmates."

She forced a smile on her face, but her eyes still revealed the sadness that was hard to hide.

Then, she said bluntly: "There is one thing I must clarify. I did not bully your sweetheart, she was the one who provoked me first!"

There was a hint of grievance and anger in her tone.

"Lin Chuxia is not my sweetheart..."

Huo Yu stopped talking halfway and asked, "Can you swear that you really didn't hit her?"

His eyes were fixed on Tang Jing, as if trying to find the answer from her expression.

"I did hit her, but that was because..."

Tang Jing wanted to explain, but was rudely interrupted by Huo Yu.

"Tang Jing, I never thought you were so petty. I've told you many times that I don't like Lin Chuxia, I don't like her. Why did you hit her? Not only that, you even let those thugs try to do that to her..."

Hearing this, Tang Jing could no longer remain calm.

She interrupted him loudly, "What did you say? What gangster? Did I let a gangster do anything to her?"

She did beat Lin Chuxia, but she never looked for thugs.

She would never do such low-brow methods.

Huo Yu immediately replied: "You let those thugs try to rape her. Do you know that I was..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted angrily by Tang Jing again.

"Huo Yu, we have known each other for so long, don't you know what kind of person I am? How could I do such a thing? Do you have a brain?"

She was so angry!

This bastard can manage such a big company.

This kind of scheming method is actually impossible to recognize.

Damn it!

Hearing her words, Huo Yu frowned, his voice filled with helplessness and pain.

"Do you think I want to believe it? You are my favorite woman! I would never believe that the woman I like is so cruel! But...but those thugs admitted it themselves. They said that a woman named Tang Jing gave them money and asked them to do this."

"So I said you are stupid. Since I am the employer of those thugs, why should I tell them my name? Isn't that just walking into a trap? If it were you, would you let those thugs know your name?"

Tang Jing's words were like a series of bullets, going straight into Huo Yu's heart.

His brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and his lips were pursed into a straight line.

He seemed to be trying hard to digest the impact of these words.

He was so angry at the time that he didn't react for a while.

Now that I think about it, what Tang Jing said does make sense.

If she was really the mastermind behind this, how could she reveal her identity so easily?

None of this seems to make sense.

"Could it be...I really misunderstood you?"

Huo Yu stared at Tang Jing closely, trying to find the answer from her clear eyes.

Tang Jing raised her head slightly and looked at Huo Yu firmly.

She took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice calm.

"Anyway, this matter is over."

After saying this, she sighed softly, and then continued: "I didn't come here today to bring up old scores."

Anyway, they won't have any intersection in the future!

Huo Yu looked at Tang Jing, a trace of guilt flashing in his eyes.

It turned out that he himself did not know people well.

He was deceived by Lin Chuxia!

Damn Lin Chuxia, causing him and Tang Jing to miss so many years.

Otherwise, their baby would definitely be bigger than Ji Xuyan’s.

"I'm sorry, Jingjing. I was so angry at the time, I didn't think too much about it... I..."

Tang Jing showed a relieved smile, "It's all over."

Then, she added, "Maybe, we were not meant to be together back then!"

Huo Yu frowned again, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and said, "It seems that Lin Chuxia is the mastermind behind this. In order to appease her, I introduced her to Candy, the ballet master from Country M. Now, she has become Candy's chief disciple."

After hearing this, Tang Jing couldn't help but sneer with a hint of sarcasm.

"Oh, I see. So, you are cleaning up my mess for me?"

"sorry!"

Huo Yu had a sincere look on his face, with regret and self-blame flashing in his eyes.

He looked straight at Tang Jing and said, "Jingjing, I...I was wrong. I didn't go to you to verify the facts and sentenced you hastily. It's all my fault. Can you...can you forgive me?"

There was a slight tremor in his voice, as if he was afraid of hearing a negative answer.

Tang Jing was silent for a moment, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

Then, she sighed softly, "Forget it, actually I did something wrong too. I was too stubborn at the time and didn't explain it to you in time."

Her voice contained a hint of helplessness, but more of relief.

Their thoughts simultaneously drifted back to the scene of that fierce argument that year.

Looking back on it now, it seems a bit absurd and ridiculous.

It turned out that the argument between the two of them was not on the same channel at all, and they were talking at cross purposes.

Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but smile at each other. That smile contained both nostalgia for the past and expectations for the future.

It seemed as if the estrangement that had been building up in my heart for many years finally disappeared at this moment.
