Chapter 89: A Passionate Confession

Huo Cheng walked in through the main gate against the light. He took a thoughtful look at Jiang Lihao and then sat down.

"Sir, shall I prepare dinner?"

"Sure."

Sister Hu left.

The atmosphere turned a bit strange ever since Huo Cheng came in.

Yang Qian, however, laughed carelessly. "It's already evening! Time flies so fast!"

Without waiting for others to respond, or perhaps not needing a response at all, Yang Qian continued excitedly, "Sister Sisi, do you know? The second happiest thing for me to come here is to be able to eat the food here. I've been longing for it for a long time."

"Okay, then eat more." Gu Sisi replied calmly.

"What about the first happiest thing?" Jiang Lihao asked out of boredom.

Yang Qian hugged Gu Sisi. "Isn't it obvious? Of course it's to see Sister Sisi and get paid!"

"Huh? What's going on?" Jiang Lihao thought for a while and shook his head. "What payment?"

Yang Qian then looked at Gu Sisi and saw her shaking her head. Knowing that she had said something wrong, she quickly covered her mouth and denied it in a hurry, "It's nothing, it's nothing."

Gu Sisi didn't want to make a big deal out of these things. Moreover, there was nothing much to say.

She was still thinking about Jiang Lihao regaining his memory. She didn't know how much Huo Cheng had heard just now. Maybe she still had to tell Huo Cheng about this. Perhaps there would be some breakthrough from the doctor.

"Alright then!" Jiang Lihao stood up. "I'll go and move my luggage here."

"Need any help?"

"No." Then Jiang Lihao left.

The two of them went up to the study, leaving Yang Qian alone downstairs.

"Is this a sign that he's about to regain his memory?" Gu Sisi asked.

Huo Cheng turned around with his hands behind his back. "He never had such a feeling before. If it's real now, there's hope."

"But is it possible without the help of doctor's treatment and medicine?" Gu Sisi raised her doubts.

"There's no way. The doctor said you're the breakthrough. Without a breakthrough, the doctor can do nothing. Taking medicine would only be a burden. Moreover, he never cooperates with the doctor."

Huo Cheng frowned, his face hidden in the shadow of the curtain.

Gu Sisi forced a smile. "Okay, I'll try my best!"

Their conversation didn't last long. Soon, there was a noise outside.

The two walked out and looked downstairs. Jiang Lihao was directing people to carry things.

"Upstairs, upstairs." Jiang Lihao suddenly saw Gu Sisi and his eyes lit up. He asked, "Sisi, which room is yours?"

Gu Sisi didn't suspect anything else and pointed to her room. "Here."

Jiang Lihao quickened his steps. He opened the rooms around Gu Sisi's, took a casual look, and pointed at a door. "This one. Move it in here."

At this time, Gu Sisi looked up at Huo Cheng's chin. Sure enough, his face darkened. She straightened her body, turned back, and stroked his back to calm him down. She still said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay."

But all she was left with was Huo Cheng's proud back as he went downstairs.

After the commotion, the villa gradually returned to its usual calm.

A group of people were sitting on the sofa, and no one said a word.

"Sir, Madam, Miss Yang, Mr. Jiang, dinner is ready."

"What?" Jiang Lihao frowned.

"The food is ready, Mr. Jiang." Sister Hu repeated and then waited for instructions quietly.

Everyone was looking at him, wondering what he wanted to do.

He waved his hand and said impatiently, "It's okay, it's okay."

The Huo residence hadn't been this lively for a long time. Or perhaps it had never been this lively. But when the four of them were sitting at the table, two of them were still the same as before. Yang Qian was eating heartily, while Jiang Lihao buried his head, as if he had something on his mind and didn't say a word.

"Sister Sisi, the food in your family is so delicious." Yang Qian sighed with emotion, on the verge of crying.

She had never eaten such delicious food since she left home. Now she felt like a starving ghost reincarnated, even though she knew her image was not good at the moment.

Mr. Huo, Sister Sisi's husband, there's no need to care about him.

Jiang Lihao, the person she once had a crush on, forget it, it doesn't matter.

Food is the most important. After the meal, most of the food had gone into Yang Qian's stomach.

She lazily stroked her stomach and watched Jiang Lihao stand up.

"I'll go upstairs first." After saying that, he went upstairs.

Yang Qian looked completely confused. She felt that something was strange.

"Hey, Sister Sisi." Yang Qian turned her head and was about to ask.

Gu Sisi immediately interrupted her. "Yang Qian, let's go for a walk in the back garden to digest. I also have something to talk to you about."

"Okay." Yang Qian immediately stood up.

After the two left, Huo Cheng looked at the closed door upstairs, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

Huo Cheng went out early in the morning. Gu Sisi thought this period of time had been too wasted. Thinking that she had nothing to do, she went to the back garden to help pull out the weeds.

If she was any more idle, she might start to get moldy.

Yang Qian got up lazily, stretching. She wanted to find Gu Sisi. After wandering around for a while, she finally found out where she was and walked towards the garden she had been to last night.

Unexpectedly, she heard a conversation.

"Is that guy your husband? Are you married?"

"Yes, and he's also your friend." Gu Sisi emphasized.

"Why didn't you say so before?"

"You didn't ask!" Gu Sisi frowned for a moment and pondered for a few seconds. "I really didn't handle it well that time by not telling you immediately."

Gu Sisi looked up wearily. "But your feelings for me..." It's not love.

She didn't finish her sentence.

"I don't mind."

"Huh?" Gu Sisi didn't understand what this sentence meant.

"I don't mind." Jiang Lihao emphasized. "Give me a chance. I want to pursue you."

Yang Qian, who was eavesdropping outside, was shocked. Countless swear words flashed through her mind. She was stunned on the spot. What a damn complicated love triangle, no, love quadrangle.

She rubbed her face. She didn't know that she had unknowingly been involved in a love quadrangle. Could there be anything more crazy in her life?

The parties involved were even more confused. It took Gu Sisi a long time to find her voice. "Well, listen to me..."

She was about to vomit blood.

"I'll prove to you that I love you more. Don't rush to reject me. Give me a fair chance to compete, okay?" Jiang Lihao looked at her affectionately.

But Gu Sisi only felt her scalp go numb. She regretted coming out so early now.

Just when they were at a stalemate, suddenly there was a "bang!" The sound of something falling on the soil.

Under the gazes of the two pairs of eyes, Yang Qian came out from the corner with a stick in her hand, looking embarrassed with a smile. "Sister Sisi, you're here!"

As if she had just noticed there was another person, she said, "Oh, you're here too!"

Seeing that neither of them said a word, she had to continue bravely, "Sister Sisi, are you pulling out the weeds?"

This morning, Gu Sisi had specially changed into some equipment for pulling out weeds, such as boots, arm sleeves, an apron, and gloves. They were all stained with soil and grass. It was obvious at a glance.

"Yes."

"Don't do that. Let's go inside! Don't work so hard. Take a good rest."

Yang Qian advised earnestly.

She was really worried. After all, part of her duty was to take good care of Gu Sisi.
