Dust is like a city

Chapter 117 Punishment

The huge villa, the empty hall, and the cold light from the crystal chandelier all made this night extraordinarily depressing.

Chen Qianchen took a few deep breaths, clenched his fists by his side, raised his head to look at Huo Rongxuan and said, "...I'm sorry, my relationship with him ended a long time ago, I lied to you...I'm sorry... …sorry."

Huo Rongxuan finally laughed out loud, his smile was elegant and handsome, but it also showed how angry he was at the moment.

"It ended a long time ago, so why go to see him today?" Huo Rongxuan asked, "It ended a long time ago, so... why did you ask Kevin to use his contacts to lead him?"

Chen Qianchen's face turned pale for a moment, he didn't expect Huo Rongxuan to find out about this matter so quickly.

Seeing Chen Qianchen's expression, Huo Rongxuan smiled deeper.He wanted to see what answer Chen Qianchen could give him.

By now, Chen Qianchen knew that it would be meaningless for him to hide any more, so he might as well tell the whole story: "...Because I like you, Mr. Huo."

"Oh?" Huo Rongxuan narrowed his eyes and looked at him with deep scrutiny.

"I don't want you to know about this, so..."

"Chen Qianchen, don't you feel inconsistent with what you said?" Huo Rongxuan couldn't help interrupting him.

From the moment Chen Qianchen said "like", he might have lost interest in this confrontation.

A long time ago, when Chen Qianchen said he liked him, he was moved, and he thought it was sincere.But at this moment, I just feel cold, because this kind of liking is just a sugar-coated lie.

Huo Yong said to him many years ago: "If you stay in this position in this life, don't expect any romantic love. Those who say they like you are all fake."

"Rong Xuan, you might as well go and see how many tricks and filth are behind those 'likes'."

"Perhaps their 'like' also has sincerity, and this sincerity is only maintained on your identity as the 'head of the Huo family'."

He didn't believe these words before, but reality gave him a slap in the face.

And the person who slapped him many years later came back, talking about love and helplessness.

Whether it's Ke Yinian or Chen Qianchen, it's all the same.

"I'm sorry...I know this is ridiculous...but what I said is true..." Chen Qianchen said, "I didn't lie to you only about this one!"

"Haven't you lied to me enough?!" Huo Rongxuan finally broke out and yelled at him, "You told me that you have never been in a relationship, and now?! The last time you went to meet your old friends Time to spend the night outside? With whom? Who bit the teeth marks on the back of your neck? You said?!"

Chen Qianchen opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.

"Now you come to tell me that you are over long ago, but you use my relationship with people to help him match up. What are you trying to do?" Huo Rongxuan asked, "Why do you think I should trust you again?!"

"The film crew is invested by Kim Xiancheng, and he has a bad reputation in the industry. Mr. Huo, you should have heard of it. It's not a day or two for him to be contaminated with marijuana. I just want to find a way to restrain Jiang Gao. "Chen Qianchen spoke out recklessly, he could bear Huo Rongxuan breaking up with him after learning the truth, but he couldn't accept the fact that Huo Rongxuan denied all his "likes".

Chen Qianchen didn't know what to do, he didn't know what to do for Huo Rongxuan to understand and calm down, there was nothing he could do at the moment, the only thing he could do was to tell the whole story and never tell another lie.

Sure enough, after Chen Qianchen finished saying that, Huo Rongxuan was silent for a while, and after a while he raised his dark eyes and looked at him: "If what you said is true, then Chen Qianchen...you are really more powerful than I imagined. I have more patience."

Chen Qianchen's heart sank, he didn't know if Huo Rongxuan believed it, but he knew that maybe he really couldn't tell tonight.

"For you, it looks like I'm really wishful thinking." Huo Rongxuan looked at him coldly.

He once wanted to give Chen Qianchen the best protection he could, but now it seems... It's really ridiculous.

No matter what Chen Qianchen said was true or not, he was much more ruthless than he imagined.

It is unimaginable that he can use such despicable means to his predecessor, let him be contaminated with these contraband, and if he is not careful, he will be doomed.

If not, then his scheming is truly terrifying if he can go back and forth between his old lovers behind his back and even bridge him.

Moreover, Huo Rongxuan still has a lot of doubts about Chen Qianchen's words.

Chen Qianchen asked Kevin to show him the list of all the rich people in city A. Is it really for his old lover to carefully select resources for use?Or is he useful himself?For example... besides myself, I'm going to find another family right now. After all, everyone in this circle is very smart, and this kind of relationship won't last long, so... Chen Qianchen is also likely to find another family for himself.

In the beginning, Huo Rongxuan actually didn't think about it. He didn't even care much about Chen Qianchen's homosexuality scandal when it came out on the Internet. He planned to wait and see for a while before deciding on a countermeasure.

But I didn't expect to receive such a photo suddenly.

Anonymous mail, untraceable IP.

So...he had to have this kind of doubt, and this kind of doubt reached its peak when he heard Chen Qianchen say that he was playing tricks on his old lover.

Huo Rongxuan felt that maybe he had never really known this person before.

"You go, I don't want to see you again." Huo Rongxuan waved at him.

Chen Qianchen took a look at Huo Rongxuan, although he had expected this situation a long time ago, but when it really happened, he still felt a deep dull pain in his heart.

He bowed slightly towards Huo Rongxuan: "I'm sorry...thank you for taking care of me these days."

Huo Rongxuan looked at him with a gloomy expression.He didn't expect Chen Qianchen to be so calm. His scheming was really too deep, so deep that he, who had been in the mall for many years, couldn't see through it.

After speaking, Chen Qianchen turned and left. He knew that there was nothing to say now, and he confessed everything that should be confessed.

But this world is so strange. People hate lies, but if they really tell the truth, they may not be able to accept it, and even rebound more.

So how to choose between hurt and lies?

When Chen Qianchen walked out of the gate, he couldn't help but look back at the villa where he had lived for more than half a year.

This brightly lit palace, and the owner of that palace, did not belong to him from the very beginning, and all the illusions of happiness were borrowed.

It's time to go back.

However, there was only one sentence, which he repeated a hundred times in his heart.

>>Huo Rongxuan, you are the person I least want to deceive in this world.

After Chen Qianchen left, Huo Rongxuan ruthlessly threw the cold cup of coffee on the coffee table to the ground, making harsh noises in the empty hall.

The door of the side hall was pushed open, butler Lin came out, looking for things to pack without saying a word.

This was the first time he had seen the young master lose his temper in so many years.

Huo Rongxuan has been taught strictly since he was a child, and he has learned etiquette and rules very rigorously. He almost never does things like throwing things, and once he does, it means that he is now on the verge of anger.

"Didn't you say that you should go to sleep tonight and not come out if you hear any movement?" Huo Rongxuan said coldly.

Butler Lin nodded at him: "Master, the coffee cup is broken. The young master and the young miss will get up early tomorrow, so if they don't clean it up, they might get hurt."

Huo Rongxuan glanced at him bitterly, stood up and walked towards the second floor, then remembered something: "Clean up everything in the guest room and ask someone to send it back."

"This..." Although Butler Lin knew that they were arguing fiercely tonight, but because the sound insulation effect of the room was very good, he didn't hear what was arguing specifically, but he knew one thing, that he could make the young master care for so many years Only Chen Shao was the only one, and tonight he was furious because of Chen Shao, but this quarrel was so loud that he wanted to kick him out... This is really... somewhat out of style.

The housekeeper thought about it and said: "If it is sorted out now, Young Master Chen is not here, I don't know what things will be missed, or when he comes next time..."

"Uncle Lin." Huo Rongxuan interrupted him coldly, "You are all facing him now? Have you forgotten who the owner of this place is?"

"Yes, master." Lin Butler nodded helplessly.

He has taken care of the Huo family for many years, and he is well aware of the Huo family's temperament, which is suspicious and assertive, and no matter what they say, no matter how much they persuade them, it will be counterproductive, so he can only let him do it.

Huo Rongxuan gave Butler Lin a cold look, and continued to go upstairs.

Not only Lin Butler, but also Xie Xia, all of them helped Chen Qianchen.Even Kevin was able to do so many things for Chen Qianchen behind his back.

It seems that he really indulged these subordinates too much, he must let them understand, who are they following?As the person in power of a large company, he will not allow such a thing to happen again, and he will not let anyone poach his flesh and blood for profit.

Ke Yinian can't, and neither can Chen Qianchen.

He didn't believe a word of their so-called "likes".

Chen Qianchen finally returned to the original dormitory in the middle of the night, not because he was willing to wander around outside, but because Huo Rongxuan's family's villa area is located in a wealthy area, and the environment on Thursdays is very quiet, and he used to have a car to pick him up Yes, but tonight, if you want to get a taxi by yourself, you have to walk a very, very long way alone.

It was already past one o'clock in the evening when we could occasionally see one or two passing cars on the main road. It was even more difficult to take a taxi at this time. It was extremely cold in the middle of the night in City A, and he came out of the set in a hurry. I didn't wear much, so I couldn't resist the cold in the middle of the night at all. I was shivering from the cold, but there was nothing I could do.

When he got home, he was almost paralyzed from exhaustion, and his feet hurt so badly. When he took off his shoes, he found that the snow-white socks were stained with blood. When the socks were peeled off the soles of his feet, the pain was even more painful, which made him gasp.

But whether it is the cold or the pain in the body, nothing can compare with the pain in my heart tonight.

Chen Qianchen didn't understand why bad things had to be crowded together.

But he also understands in his heart that this matter will have to be faced sooner or later, and people will always have to pay the price for their lies.

He understood, but still felt uncomfortable.

Maybe he met Huo Rongxuan at the wrong time, it was his darkest and most depraved day, if... If only Huo Rongxuan was the first person he met when he was young.

How much he wanted to give him all his most sincere love and purest time.

He wants a past without lies, and a future that is honest with each other, he just... wants to get along with him.

But there are no ifs in the world, maybe all of this is retribution.

The self who has been polluted by darkness in this circle is the retribution for wanting to harm others.

Jiang Gao is right, his retribution has come.

Chen Qianchen couldn't help laughing at himself, and couldn't help his nose sore after laughing, but he didn't want to cry after all, and buried his head deeply in his arms.

Lies that have been told and things that have been done wrong should all be borne.

This is punishment.
