Chapter 65: Huo Yushu: I Won't Associate with Pigs (1/2)
"What?!" Huo Yuyan suddenly stood up, looking at the manager in shock. "Say that again—how much?"
1.5 million? Are you crazy? And you expect me to pay?
"Miss Huo, hasn't Miss Yushu paid?"
The manager still wore a professional smile. "Miss Huo, the total is 1,500,000. Miss Yushu didn’t pay. She said today’s meal is on you."
"You're telling me these things cost 1,500,000? Do you think I don't understand the prices? Or do you think I’m easily scammed?" Huo Yuyan gritted her teeth and glared at him.
"Well, Miss Yushu packed three bottles of 36,000 yuan wine when she left. She said you were aware of it, and it should be added to your tab," the manager explained with a gentle smile.
Huo Yuyan's teeth ground together, her mind seething with hatred for Huo Yushu.
This damn Huo Yushu, leaving such a mess behind for her to clean up!
1.5 million!
How could she afford that? All her expenses had been covered by Huo Yushu over the years.
Everyone was watching her, especially Xie Shaoheng, whose gaze seemed... complex.
It was as if he was asking her, Aren’t you the eldest daughter of the Huo family? How could you not have 1.5 million?
But the truth was, she didn’t have it!
She was still just a student. Her mother didn’t work, and the only high salary in their family was from her brother.
But she had never asked her brother for money. After all, in their family’s view, if they could milk money from the Huo family, they’d never ask their own family for it.
Right now, the money she had couldn’t exceed 100,000.
And that was her allowance from her father, given secretly.
After all, she was just the nominal niece of Huo Yunshan, and Huo Yunshan didn’t have much money himself.
The Wen family’s holdings were now in the hands of Huo Xingjian.
Huo Xingjian was the current head of the Huo family.
"Yuyan, why don’t you call Yushu?" Someone suggested. "After all, she took the big portion."
"Manager, didn’t you always keep a tab?" One person recalled, speaking confidently to the manager. "Every time we came with Yushu, the bill was always under her name."
"Yes, yes! This time should be no different. Yushu even has a special account with you, just like before. You can just put it on the tab."
"Don’t you trust Yushu’s account? She’s the youngest in the Huo family, and the most beloved sister of Mr. Huo."
Huo Yuyan took a deep breath and put on a gentle, half-smiling expression as she spoke to the manager. "That’s right! Yushu was with us earlier, but she had to leave suddenly."
"Just put the bill on her account. Besides, my brother isn’t going to care about such a small amount of money."
"Exactly! Yuyan is the eldest daughter of the Huo family. The Huo family can afford this small amount of money!" Her companions echoed her.
The manager continued to smile professionally, slowly looking at everyone in the room before speaking calmly. "Miss Huo, you might not know this, but when Miss Yushu left, she closed her account with us."
"She said she won’t be coming to our bar anymore. From now on, she’s going to focus on her studies and do what a student should do."
"She said, this kind of thing, drinking and hanging out with bad company, is something only wasteful people would do."
"She said she is determined to become a person who contributes to society, not a useless waste who loses her ambitions. So, from today on, quitting clubbing starts with closing her account with our bar."
The manager spoke seriously, his face solemn and full of conviction.
He then added in a very serious tone, "Miss Huo, please don’t misunderstand me. These are not my words. I’m just repeating what Miss Yushu said, word for word."
Huo Yuyan felt her lips twitching violently, a deep resentment flashing in her eyes.
Damn Huo Yushu! You’re something else! Fine, just wait for me!
The others went silent, exchanging glances. They were annoyed, but no one dared to do anything to Huo Yushu. After all, she was Mr. Huo Xingjian's most beloved sister.
Huo Yuyan took a deep breath, forcing down her anger, and smiled faintly at the manager. "I understand. Please leave the bill here. I’ll settle it at the front desk in a moment."
"Understood." The manager, clearly aware of the situation, left the bill and exited.
"I’m going to make a call." Huo Yuyan glanced at the bill on the table, grabbed her phone, and prepared to leave.
"Yuyan, you can’t leave now!" One person quickly stopped her, "1,500,000 isn’t a small amount! You’re not trying to make an excuse to leave, are you?"
"Yeah, yeah!" Another person chimed in, "Yuyan, don’t be like Huo Yushu! You said you’d treat us today. We only came because of that. You can’t expect us to pay the 1.5 million, can you?"
"Exactly! Yuyan, you can’t be as heartless as Huo Yushu! If you’re going to make a call, do it here in the room! After all, we’re all familiar with each other, what could you possibly be talking about that we can’t hear?"
They surrounded Huo Yuyan in a flurry of words, not giving her a chance to leave the room.
What a joke! If they let Huo Yuyan leave, the bar manager would probably make them pay the bill!
None of them wanted to be the fool.
Besides, this gathering had been organized by Huo Yuyan, so it was only right that she paid.
"I just remembered, my dad needs me, so I’ll leave first." One person grabbed her bag, said this quickly, and rushed out.
The others quickly followed suit. Within a few minutes, everyone found an excuse to leave.
Soon, only Huo Yuyan and Xie Shaoheng were left in the room.
"Why aren’t you leaving?" Huo Yuyan shot a cold glance at Xie Shaoheng.
"How could I leave you alone?" Xie Shaoheng walked over, taking her hand with a sincere expression. "Yuyan, every word I’ve said to you has been serious, from the heart."
"No matter what happens, I’ll be by your side, facing everything with you. Yuyan, you have to believe in me."
He was handsome, especially his eyes, which were always gentle and full of affection.
At this moment, he looked at her with deep, loving eyes, making Huo Yuyan's heart flutter uncontrollably, unable to keep her composure.
"Senior Xie…"
"Call me Shaoheng." He softly interrupted her, holding her hand with one hand, while the other gently traced the corner of her lips.
Huo Yuyan felt a shiver run through her body, her heart racing wildly, and a blush spread across her cheeks.
She lowered her gaze slightly, her voice soft and coy, "Shaoheng."
Xie Shaoheng bent down and kissed her lips.
