Chapter 468: Chapter 468: The Unexpected Visitor

Her politeness did not mean that Li Tao would be polite, especially as a tall man of over six feet sitting in the middle of the back row, the feeling could be described as bitterly refreshing.

Li Tao’s face was expressionless, "As an assistant, of course I go wherever He Xing goes."

Actually, his tone wasn’t bad, and there was no complaint in his words, more a sense of helplessness and a touch of melancholy; his remark had nothing to do with mocking Fu Han.

But He Xing gave him a fierce glare after hearing this, "Knowing that, why are you saying these things here? Be careful, or it’ll affect your bonus this month."

Normally, Li Tao would immediately back down upon hearing such words and dare not say another word, but at this moment, Zhao Ting was sitting right beside him, and from the corner of his eye, Li Tao could clearly see the mocking expression on Zhao Ting’s face.

Considering Zhao Ting had rejected his confession just a few days prior, there was no way Li Tao could accept losing face in front of her.

With his eyes looking out of the window, Li Tao murmured under his breath, "He Xing, what about you? You couldn’t wait a moment to meet Miss Fu Han and insisted on taking the earliest flight, even if it meant sitting in economy class."

Ever since Fu Han had memories of flying, He Xing had always flown first class. He found economy too crowded, uncomfortable for his legs, and if there wasn’t a first-class seat, he would rather delay the trip than fly economy.

At this thought, Fu Han couldn’t help but look back at He Xing, only to see a mysterious flush spreading across his face, while his eyes remained as bright and dark as obsidian.

A warm current surged through Fu Han’s heart, and her mood suddenly became buoyant, "Winter in M Country is quite interesting, it’s snowing everywhere here, unlike the smaller snowfalls in City A."

Girls naturally have a weakness for snow, and Zhao Ting immediately became excited, her tender white face pressed against the window glass as she strained to see the scenery outside.

Fu Han watched coldly from the sidelines, as Li Tao made a visible effort to sit up straight and avoid any physical contact with Zhao Ting, although secret glances from the corner of his eyes toward Zhao Ting were constant.

And whenever Zhao Ting caught Li Tao’s gaze, she would dodge away as if shocked by electricity each time.

Although Fu Han wasn’t very experienced in love, she felt that Zhao Ting’s behavior wasn’t one of disgust toward Li Tao, but more like a girl’s shyness.

Linking this to what Zhao Ting had mentioned before about her and Li Tao’s situation, Fu Han thought there might have been some misunderstanding between them.

...

The arrival of He Xing made the entire Fu family mansion come alive, and without a doubt, Bai Qian was the happiest of everyone since she was He Xing’s biological Aunt.

As their car stopped at the entrance of the mansion, Bai Wei went up to greet Fu Xingbo as usual.

But before Fu Xingbo could get out of the car, He Xing greeted her first: "Auntie."

"He Xing?" Bai Wei peeked in, both shocked and delighted, "He Xing, is it really you who’s come?"

"Uh, yes, it’s me." He Xing replied, his cheeks tinged with an inexplicable blush.

"That’s great, so great." Bai Wei cast a meaningful glance at Fu Han.

Although her look was well-intentioned, Fu Han still felt very awkward. She knew she should say something to ease the embarrassing atmosphere, "Auntie... it doesn’t seem you’re surprised at all to see He Xing."

"Surprised? Of course not." Bai Wei stuck out her tongue playfully and shared a cheeky smile, "Other than He Xing, I can’t think of anyone else who would get you up so early in the morning."

In fact, as soon as Fu Han had said those words earlier, she already regretted it. Hearing Bai Wei’s response only confirmed that she was indeed shooting herself in the foot.

Her face flushed thoroughly, she wanted to refute Bai Wei’s words, but as she was about to, she inadvertently saw the expectant look in He Xing’s eyes. Soft-hearted, Fu Han ultimately didn’t speak the words on her mind.

The Fu family mansion became exceptionally lively, with Bai Wei specifically hiring two skilled servants to help in the kitchen, so the cook wouldn’t be overwhelmed.

Bai Wei was very welcoming of He Xing’s sudden arrival, but when she accidentally saw the complex expression on Su Cheng’s face, she felt a little guilty.

The reason was simple; before the arrival of He Xing, Bai Wei had been a strong supporter of Su Cheng’s pursuit of Fu Han, and now she felt like welcoming He Xing was a betrayal to Su Cheng.

Ji Liangchuan also had mixed feelings. No matter what, he and He Xing were old friends. Although their friendship ended the moment Ji Liangchuan decided to pursue Fu Han, encountering an old friend in such a setting was still somewhat awkward.

The feelings of Su Cheng were more transparent. The moment he knew of He Xing’s existence, it was predetermined that there would be no friendship between them; whether He Xing was present or not, their rivalry was unchangeable.

As for Luo Qinghe, when He Xing came in, he was nestled on the couch in the living room playing games. He looked up on hearing the noise with a mild surprise on his face, then looked back down at his phone.

Equally indifferent to He Xing’s arrival was Wang Yixuan, who knew He Xing well already. After spotting He Xing in the mansion, he stroked his chin and then propped up his drawing board, letting the charcoal dance on the white paper.

Curious, Nan Qing took a peek and saw that Wang Yixuan was sketching the current scene in the Fu family’s living room; when Nan Qing looked, the image was already quite expressive, detailing the demeanor of everyone, with him working on the finer details.

But there were indeed young people who genuinely welcomed He Xing, like Nan Qing.

She truly considered Fu Han a close friend, and just a few days before in their conversation, she learned that Fu Han liked neither Su Cheng nor Ji Liangchuan. Nan Qing believed Fu Han was still in love with He Xing, so when she found out He Xing had come to M Country, she was genuinely happy for Fu Han.

However, this wasn’t the most awkward situation. Even though the Fu family’s mansion was a stand-alone villa, unfortunately, there were too many people living there already, leaving no spare room for He Xing and his party, not even one.

So, though He Xing was reluctant, he had no choice but to stay in a hotel. However, the hotel belonged to the Fu family and was very close to the mansion, less than a ten-minute drive away.

Even so, He Xing still felt frustrated and quietly suggested to Fu Han, maybe he should just share a room with one of the boys. Fu Han took it as a joke, listening without taking it seriously.

After all, which of the boys there wasn’t a young master? Who would accept sharing a room with another man?
