Chapter 284 That Man Likes You

He was about to say something when he caught a glimpse of Li Qingyou's figure gradually approaching from the distance.

Li Yong's expression instantly turned panicked. He quickly pulled a USB drive from his pocket, handed it to Gu Heng, and said rapidly:

"You must give this USB drive to Huo Muchen. Also, no matter what happens, do not tell Xiaoyou."

Gu Heng was bewildered by Li Yong's sudden actions and words, but he still instinctively took the USB drive and put it in his pocket.

He looked at Li Yong with a puzzled expression, trying to find the answer in his face, but Li Yong simply avoided his gaze, seemingly unwilling to explain further.

"What are you talking about?"

Li Qingyou walked to her seat and looked at the two serious-looking people.

"We didn't talk much. I'm finished eating. You guys continue eating. I have something to do, so I have to go now."

As Li Yong spoke, he stood up. Seeing this, Gu Heng also stood up. After shaking hands, Li Yong looked at Gu Heng deeply, as if entrusting him with something important, then quickly turned around and left in a hurry.

Gu Heng stood there, watching Li Yongyuan's departing figure, his heart filled with doubt.

He glanced down at the USB drive in his pocket, wondering what secret it held, why Li Yong was so flustered, and why he had specifically instructed him not to tell Xiao You.

"I'm almost full too, how about you?"

Li Qingyou looked at the table full of food and said with some worry.

"Eat some more, you're too thin,"

Hearing Li Qingyou's voice, Gu Heng snapped out of his reverie, smiled, and said, while also serving Li Qingyou some food.

The two ate and chatted, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

Gu Heng would occasionally serve food to Li Qingyou, and Li Qingyou would also occasionally serve food to Gu Heng in return. The two of them would go back and forth, as if they were having a silent contest, or as if they were enjoying this rare moment of time alone together.

"Sister Shishi, you're back? I missed you so much!"

When Li Qingyou saw Liu Shiyin enter, her eyes sparkled with excitement. She quickly walked forward and hugged Liu Shiyin tightly.

"Hello, Mr. Huo,"

Li Qingyou saw Huo Muchen behind her and quickly greeted him. Huo Muchen nodded in response.

Li Yong, who was standing next to her, hadn't taken his eyes off Liu Shiyin since she entered the room.

Huo Muchen tilted his head slightly, his gaze falling on Li Yong, his brows furrowed as if he were thinking about something.

Li Yong's attention to Liu Shiyin surprised him somewhat, but he didn't say much. He simply stood quietly to the side, observing the interaction between the two.

After Li Qingyou and Liu Shiyin hugged, they started chatting excitedly, while Li Yong stood quietly to the side, listening to their conversation with a slight smile on his face.

"Li Yong, thank you so much for your help these past two days, I'm truly grateful,"

Liu Shiyin looked at Li Yong, her voice sincere and gentle, her eyes filled with gratitude.

"It's alright, I'm on vacation lately, so I'm just killing time anyway. You should sit down and rest for a bit, you must be exhausted!"

His words were full of heartache and worry, clearly showing his concern for Liu Shiyin's exhaustion.

This scene instantly turned Huo Muchen's previously calm eyes cold, and a disdainful smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

He walked towards Liu Shiyin and pulled her into his arms.

"We're a bit tired, so we'll head back to rest first. We'll leave the shop to you two."

"It's alright, Mr. Huo, please take Sister Shishi back to rest. I'll leave this to you."

Xiao You urged hurriedly.

The atmosphere inside the car was somewhat heavy. Looking at Huo Muchen's cold, handsome profile, Liu Shiyin felt a strange unease well up inside her. She cautiously asked:

"What's wrong? You seem unhappy."

Her voice was soft and melodious, as if she were testing Huo Muchen's emotions.

Huo Muchen looked straight ahead and spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of barely perceptible jealousy:

"That man likes you, and although it's your personal charm, I still feel a little uncomfortable."

Although his voice was calm, the emotions it contained surged like a tidal wave.
