The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 853: You Don’t Hate Me?

Chu Yunhang: "Continue."

Huo Zijin: "If you lose, treat me to a late-night snack."

"Okay."

Just as Chu Yunhang spoke, he heard the intense "click-clack" of the keyboard beside him.

Huo Zijin controlled Kyo Kusanagi, unleashed a crazy combo, and in less than ten seconds, completely drained his health bar.

He didn’t even have a chance to counterattack.

Feeling a bit frustrated, Chu Yunhang said, "No more, it’s no fun."

Huo Zijin: "Alright."

She stood up.

Ye Ling, having finished the motorcycle game, came over and asked, "Yinyin, what are you doing here?"

She saw Chu Yunhang next to Huo Zijin and said, surprised, "Is he your friend?"

Huo Zijin shrugged: "Sort of."

She lightly patted Chu Yunhang on the shoulder: "He lost to me, so he’s treating us to a late-night snack."

Ye Ling walked over, looked at the big "K.O" on the screen, and, unable to hold back her laughter, said, "Yinyin, you’re amazing at King of Fighters!"

Huo Zijin smiled proudly: "Just kidding! I’m the number one female fighter in Yan City!"

Ye Ling said, "That’s awesome, I haven’t seen many girls who are so good at King of Fighters!" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Huo Zijin: "Actually, being a fighter is not that hard. It’s just that most boys like these kinds of fighting games. If you’re willing to practice, you won’t do any worse than me."

Ye Ling glanced at the King of Fighters game interface, shook her head: "I’m really not that interested."

Chu Yunhang stood up and asked, "So, what do you want to eat?"

Huo Zijin: "Barbecue, hehe."

Just thinking about the sizzling grilled meat made her mouth water.

Chu Yunhang: "I didn’t expect you to be a foodie."

He booked a high-speed train ticket for tomorrow. Before heading back to the United States, he planned to go to De City.

...

At the barbecue restaurant.

Huo Zijin found a private booth.

This was a newly opened barbecue place, with seafood, grilled fish, traditional barbecue, and even Zibo-style barbecue.

The grill was a semi-self-service design, using charcoal for cooking. Each piece of barbecue was skewered on a specially designed iron skewer with gears at the bottom. Just clip the small gear onto the grill, and the machine will automatically grill the meat, very convenient.

Once the meat is cooked, you can eat it directly.

Huo Zijin ordered a lot of beef and lamb. Besides beef and lamb, she especially liked cartilage and cauliflower.

She also ordered five rolls.

Soon, the food arrived.

Huo Zijin placed all the skewers on the grill, eagerly waiting for them to be cooked.

Chu Yunhang grabbed a few drinks from the fridge.

He used to love drinking.

But he had promised Rong Xiaoyi that he would quit drinking for good.

So, when he saw the beer, he resisted and turned away.

Returning to his seat.

The barbecue was almost ready.

Huo Zijin grabbed a roll, dipped it in sauce, placed a few crisp green scallions, dipped the grilled meat in a bit of salt, and wrapped it all up to eat with satisfaction.

Ye Ling didn’t originally like barbecue, but seeing Huo Zijin eating with her mouth shining with oil, she couldn’t help but give in, copying her way of wrapping the grilled meat in a roll, taking a bite, her eyes lit up: "So delicious!"

Huo Zijin beamed: "Right, right?!"

Her smile was particularly energetic, as if the air itself became fresher when she smiled. It somehow made one’s mood inexplicably lighter.

Chu Yunhang quietly picked up a skewer of cooked meat. Just as he took a bite, Huo Zijin immediately nosed around: "Do you and Xiaoyi really have a child?"

That day, she heard Chu Yunhang mention something about a child in the car, and she kept it in her heart.

She had no feelings for Rong Xiaoyi, purely wanted to be a curious bystander.

Ye Ling showed a surprised expression: "Who is Xiaoyi?"

Huo Zijin: "Junyan’s aunt."

Ye Ling: "Isn’t that quite old then?"

Huo Zijin: "It’s just the generational term. Actually, she’s younger than Junyan."

Ye Ling looked at Chu Yunhang: "So you’re already a father?"

Chu Yunhang: "Yes."

Huo Zijin: "Then... you and Xiaoyi must have a great relationship."

Chu Yunhang: "It’s alright."

Suddenly he felt curious: "Your two brothers dislike me so much, why are you willing to hang out with me?"

Huo Zijin: "I don’t dislike you."

Chu Yunhang: "Why?"

Huo Zijin: "Because you’re treating me to a late-night snack, why should I dislike you?"

Chu Yunhang was defeated by her somewhat quirky logic.

Huo Zijin: "How did you and Xiaoyi meet?"

Chu Yunhang almost blurted out: "Bar."

Huo Zijin: "Bar?"

Chu Yunhang: "We weren’t from the same school, but our schools are quite close. Before that, I hadn’t seen her."

The first time he saw Rong Xiaoyi was in a bar.

It seemed to be Halloween, and a class from Rong Xiaoyi’s school had arranged to celebrate Halloween at the bar.

That night, the bar was unusually lively.

Everyone was dressed in bizarre costumes.

Chu Yunhang never liked celebrating Halloween, he found it pointless, and apparently, so did Rong Xiaoyi.

That day, she wore her ordinary clothes.

So, amidst the bizarre costumes, his eyes were immediately drawn to her sitting alone in a small corner.

In a foreign country, it’s not uncommon for Chinese students to face discrimination.

Rong Xiaoyi was heavily ostracized in her class.

When she first started school, she experienced campus bullying.

In the United States, campus bullying is quite common.

Thus, Rong Xiaoyi had a strong sense of self-protection, even in the bar, she didn’t join her classmates but sat alone in a corner.

Chu Yunhang was drinking with a few good buddies when they noticed her sitting alone and got restless, wanting to pull Xiaoyi over to drink with them.

Chu Yunhang wasn’t interested.

Even though he had a bad reputation in the study abroad circle, not keen on studying with terrible grades, he went abroad only to obtain a diploma, to embellish himself. Even if there was no progress in academics, his family’s wealth was more than enough to ensure a life of comfort abroad.

The circle he mingled in was notorious, filled with all sorts of riffraff.

Over time, his reputation became quite bad as well.

His hobby was actually very simple: he loved to drink.

Drinking to that slightly tipsy stage was the feeling he cherished the most.

He and a few friends were nearly halfway drunk when suddenly he saw Rong Xiaoyi being forcibly dragged to their booth and sat down.

Rong Xiaoyi was admittedly decent-looking, which led to a group of guys surrounding her, making advances, even snapping her shoulder strap.

Chu Yunhang didn’t want to get involved.

But he didn’t expect...

Rong Xiaoyi erupted, suddenly standing up, pushing away the guys surrounding her like she had gone mad.
