Chapter 136: Tell Huo Xiao the Secret?

Shen You stayed in the hospital until nearly 8 o’clock then only she rushed back to the coffee shop.

Just as she entered the shop, she saw Huo Xiao standing up from the sofa seat.

Shen You was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she had invited Huo Xiao to the coffee shop to continue their conversation!

Shen You walked to the bar counter and wanted to explain the situation to Xie Chen.

Xie Chen looked up at Shen You. “Quickly talk to Huo Xiao! He’s been waiting for you for a long time!”

Shen You hesitated. “Then the cupcake…”

“Don’t worry! There aren’t many people today. We can treat them with other snacks,” Xie Chen said as she stood up and put her hands on Shen You’s shoulders, turning her around.

Shen You walked to Huo Xiao awkwardly.

The two of them sat on opposite sides and did not talk for a long time.

Xie Xiao brought two cups of coffee over to watch the show.

When Xie Xiao placed the coffee on the table, she deliberately looked at the two of them from left to right, only to find them both expressionless.

Xie Xiao frowned, held the tray in her arms, and took two steps back.

She looked at the two of them again, shook her head, and turned to leave.

Shen You quietly waited for Huo Xiao to speak.

However, Huo Xiao only stared at Shen You and did not say a word for a long time.

Finally, Shen You could not hold it in anymore.

She stared at Huo Xiao and said, “I think you might have misunderstood me before.”

Shen You tried to explain, “I didn’t mean to ruin your relationship with Wu Qi…”

When Huo Xiao heard this, he raised his head and said, “I have nothing to do with her anymore.”

“No, I mean…” Shen You frowned and scratched the back of her head, not knowing how to explain.

“Do you dislike me?” Huo Xiao suddenly asked.

“Ah?” Shen You’s expression became a little dull. “What did you say?”

“I mean, do you dislike me because you think I’m sick?” Huo Xiao asked again.

“You clearly said that you wanted to cling to me!” Huo Xiao questioned her.

Shen You suddenly felt that this misunderstanding was really big.

She thought about it and decided that it was better to explain from the starting point which was the simplest.

“I did say that I wanted to cling to you.” Shen You thought about it and said lightly, “That’s because I really needed you back then!”

Huo Xiao frowned, even more, when he heard that. “So you don’t need me now?”

Shen You was a little dejected in the face of Huo Xiao’s accusation. “I need you, but…”

“But what?” Huo Xiao immediately asked.

“But the way I need you is not the way you think!” Shen You answered seriously.

Although what she had said seemed to have been unsaid, it was indeed the case!

Huo Xiao was obviously dissatisfied with Shen You’s ambiguous answer. “I’ll give you one day to think it over.”

“I don’t want the situation to continue being so ambiguous!” Huo Xiao gave his ultimatum and stood up to leave.

Shen You sat quietly on the spot and could not help but sigh.

Xie Xiao sat next to Shen You and asked curiously, “Why did Huo Xiao leave in a huff?”

“What did the two of you talk about?” Xie Xiao asked with anticipation.

Shen You turned to look at Xie Xiao. She opened her mouth but did not say anything.

Xie Chen walked over and pulled Xie Xiao up. “Leave Xiao You alone for a while.”

Xie Xiao wanted to say something, but Xie Chen pulled her away.

Shen You looked at the two cups of untouched coffee in front of her and sighed. She stood up and picked up the cups.

“Sister Chen, I want to go back and rest for a while,” Shen You said weakly to Xie Chen.

Xie Chen nodded and said, “Go quickly! You’re tired today!”

Shen You acknowledged and walked to her room.

When she returned to her room, Shen You lay on the bed.

After a long while, she said faintly, “System…”

“What’s the matter?” The system immediately replied.

“Can I tell Huo Xiao about this?” Shen You asked.

The system immediately shut up and did not reply.

Shen You was struggling internally. She did not know if she could share this secret with Huo Xiao.

If Huo Xiao knew why she was getting close to him, how would he react?

After a long while, the system finally replied, “Do you want to tell him?”

Shen You hesitated for a moment before saying, “I think it’s better not to tell him!”

“Since you’ve already made the decision, just do as you wish.” The system’s voice sounded more encouraging.
