Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me

Qin Shi watched his reaction, and a possibility surfaced in his mind.

But at the same time, he didn’t want to believe that possibility.

He could only probe, "You want to snatch her away from Yue Siqing?"

Huo Xun’s brows were furrowed, his steps lazy and unhurried as he asked, "Isn’t that the original plan?"

"No, I mean—" Qin Shi’s expression turned serious. "You want to snatch her away from Yue Siqing?"

This time, he deliberately stressed the word "you."

The same sentence instantly took on a slightly different meaning.

Huo Xun turned his head, looking over coldly. "What are you trying to say?"

"You know what I’m trying to say. I just haven’t confirmed it yet."

Huo Xun was silent for a moment. Looking at Gu Anjin’s figure growing distant in the garden, his voice sank. "Is that not allowed?"

Qin Shi’s heart jolted hard. No way.

Could this near-impossible possibility really happen?

But very quickly, he leaned more toward Huo Xun being anxious for revenge.

"That girl has liked Yue Siqing for many years. It’s pretty much impossible for you to cut off her feelings for him. I think it’s enough to just make her resolve to betray Yue Siqing."

Huo Xun mulled it over for a moment. "Betray Yue Siqing?"

He let out a cold laugh.

He feared that even then, she still wouldn’t betray Yue Siqing.

"At the very least, just make her leave Yue Siqing. By then, maybe Yue Siqing will fall out with the Gu Family."

Huo Xun ignored Qin Shi’s words and kept walking forward.

He only tossed out a single line, "Naive."

Qin Shi watched him head in the direction Gu Anjin had gone, his heart full of doubts.

Since he knew that possibility was almost zero, why do this?

It’s not like Yue Siqing’s women are untouchable. He wouldn’t mind at all if Huo Xun could snatch away the woman Yue Siqing cherished most, make her submit in body and soul, then abandon her.

But Huo Xun wouldn’t do that.

He had a hunch that if this went wrong, things would probably develop in the opposite direction.

Qin Shi rubbed his head in irritation. He must be overthinking it to come up with something this wild.

Most likely, Huo Xun was just interested in what belonged to Yue Siqing—men’s desire to conquer and all that.

"Mr. Yue."

When Yue Siqing walked in, his gaze went straight to where Gu Anjin was.

Gu Anjin was talking to someone; the other party was in a formal tailcoat, his expression serious, as if they were discussing something.

"That’s Mr. Charles." Huo Xun also looked in that direction and explained, "Miss Gu said she’s always admired Mr. Charles’s pieces, and this time she got an opportunity."

"What exactly are you trying to do?" Yue Siqing didn’t immediately go over to interrupt Gu Anjin. His tone was calm yet icy as he questioned Huo Xun.

Qin Shi, who was not far from Huo Xun, felt a chill run down his spine when he heard this.

Huo Xun curved his lips leisurely. "I don’t quite understand what Mr. Yue means, because my aim is very obvious. I’m new here; I just want to make a few more friends. I doubt Mr. Yue would understand that feeling."

"I mean with her." Yue Siqing’s cold voice was like a bitter winter wind. "Don’t play games with me."

Gu Anjin had never liked accepting such private family invitations, even if they involved a musician she admired.

What kind of musician couldn’t she see or invite if she wanted to? There was no need to make a special trip for this.

From that banquet onward, this man had been able to successfully get close to Gu Anjin, and now he’d even gotten her to accept this kind of invitation.
