Chapter 174 Mom, does this look like it?
"Mom, Liu Shiyin has been gone for over a month, why haven't you let me go find Brother Mu Chen yet?"
Xu Xiaofan felt that Liu Shiyin's departure was precisely when Huo Muchen was in deep pain, and her appearance now would surely win over and comfort Huo Muchen's heart.
Looking at her daughter's anxious face, Wang Qing shook her head helplessly and said indulgently:
"Alright then, come here, I'll tell you what to do,"
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaofan's eyes lit up, and she quickly ran to Wang Yan with a smile.
The two women spoke with their heads down, their voices low, but every word was full of scheming and calculation.
While chatting and laughing, they had already arranged the entire plan perfectly, as if everything was under their control.
-
"Mu Chen, you can't drink like that, you'll get drunk very easily."
Seeing Huo Muchen drinking one glass of wine after another, Gu Heng quickly spoke up to stop him.
Huo Muchen raised his head, his eyes revealing a hint of confusion and pain. He responded calmly:
"I'd rather get drunk."
Seeing him like this, Gu Heng felt a little worried. He knew that Huo Muchen was usually a rational and calm person, but now he seemed to have lost all his rationality and only knew how to numb himself with alcohol.
"Mu Chen, drinking like this is bad for your health, and it won't solve the problem."
Gu Heng tried to use rational words to awaken Huo Muchen.
"You need to calm down and think carefully about what to do next."
However, Huo Muchen did not seem to listen to Gu Heng's words. He continued to drink, his eyes revealing a deep sense of despair and helplessness.
Looking at him, Gu Heng couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow.
He knew that the emotional entanglement between Huo Muchen and Liu Shiyin had deeply hurt him.
But he also knew that continuing like this would only make things worse.
“Mu Chen, you need to wake up. I know you're in pain right now, but you can't let yourself go like this. We still have a lot to do; you can't let Liu Shiyin's departure ruin you,”
Huo Muchen listened to Gu Heng's words, a hint of struggle and hesitation flashing in his eyes.
He knew Gu Heng was right, but he couldn't control his emotions. He sighed deeply and then slowly lowered his head.
Seeing him like this, Gu Heng felt a sense of helplessness.
"Mom, does this look like it?"
Xu Xiaofan stood in front of the mirror, turned to look at Wang Yan, and asked expectantly.
She dressed up carefully, hiring a professional makeup artist to create a makeup look inspired by Liu Shiyin. She also chose a gentle and clean white dress, trying to imitate Liu Shiyin's style and hoping to show a similar charm to Liu Shiyin in front of Huo Muchen.
Wang Yan looked at her daughter, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
She nodded, but her voice sounded like it was being squeezed out from between her teeth:
"Yeah, like."
Although she said that, she wasn't at ease inside. Watching her daughter imitate Liu Shiyin, she couldn't help but think of Liu Shiyin and her daughter, which made her particularly irritable.
Xu Xiaofan was unaware of her mother's emotional change. She was absorbed in her own plan, imagining Huo Muchen's surprise and emotion when he saw her.
She firmly believed that as long as she could be like Liu Shiyin, she could win Huo Muchen's heart.
"Then I'll go out first, Mom."
As Xu Xiaofan spoke, she picked up her bag and hurriedly ran out of the house. Her heart was filled with anticipation and excitement, as if she could already see the look of surprise on Huo Muchen's face when he saw her.
Wang Yan watched her daughter's departing figure and sighed helplessly.
She didn't know if her suggestion to her daughter was right or wrong, and could only silently pray that everything would go as she wished.
