I Just Want to Be in a Relationship

Chapter 197: The Most Wonderful Thing in the World with this Man (2)

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Feeling sour and ache all over, he just gritted his teeth and endured the pain, pretending that nothing had happened, so that when Yu Xin came here, he didn’t even notice anything was wrong.

“Be quick, or you’ll miss the plane.” Yu Qinghuan stood at the door and waved at Huo Qu.

Huo Qu didn’t speak. Feeling impatient, Yu Xin pulled him to leave, “All right, you’ll see him tomorrow! Your brother has called me several times. Don’t be like a child!”

Huo Qu still did not move. After a few seconds, he suddenly put down his luggage and hugged Yu Qinghuan with open arms. Like a wolfdog, he rubbed Qinghuan’s neck with his head.

“Qinghuan, I’m leaving.”

“Okay,” Yu Qinghuan patted him on the back, “Stay with your second brother and don’t get separated from him.”

Huo Qu nodded, and after a while, he called, “Qinghuan...”

“Hmm?”

“I’ll wait for you at home.”

“Cya.”

As soon as Yu Xin and Huo Qu left, Yu Qinghuan deflated like a balloon instantly. He hurried into the bed. When his lower back completely landed on the bedding, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, Yu Qinghuan and Zhao Qingyuan were the biggest winners of the Taurus Award.

The relationship between them had always been good. Although they did not come here together, the media all speculated that they would probably go back together. They crouched outside their hotel and eagerly stared at the door.

Sure enough, on the third day of the Taurus Award ceremony, they finally saw the two men appeared together.

The media immediately swarmed around them.

“Qinghuan, can you reveal something about your lover?”

“Qingyuan, how do you feel about winning the movie king this time? What’s your following plan?”

“Qinghuan, did you and your lover meet through filming? Why did you speak out your love in public at the ceremony?”

...

The series of questions overwhelmed Zhao Qingyuan and Yu Qinghuan.

Fortunately, Zhao Qingyuan’s agent had a lot of experience in dealing with the media. He let the bodyguards open another way in the crowd, and blocked all the media out of the car with hard and tactful methods.

Yu Xin felt amazed and quickly wrote down the experience, intending to ponder over it after he came back.

The video was soon posted online, and when netizens saw Yu Qinghuan’s costume, they began to gossip:

“Qinghuan caught a cold? He was still wearing a high-neck sweater and his mask was so tight. It seemed that he had never dressed like this before.”

“It should be. My poor little koi. He took a lot of effort to get the award, but fell ill right after realizing his dream.”

“That day after Qinghuan’s speech, Huo Qu and Da Yuan, his two good friends, looked gloomy. But today, it seems they get along well with each other? Emm, Da Yuan is just a paper tiger! He could not stick to his principle for more than two days.”

“Qinghuan is sick! When he bent down to get on the car, he unconsciously supported his waist. It should be a viral cold, and it will hurt all over once he catches it.”

“My poor boy QAQ...”

...

After the award ceremony, Yu Qinghuan did not have much work to do. Instead, Huo Qu became unusually busy and even the iron rule of going to bed at 9 o’clock was broken.

When Huo Qu was told that he would have to work overtime again tonight, his face turned gloomy, making the aura around him became tense and cold. Other people in the lab even dared not to make a sound, lowering their heads in fear and trembling to check if there was any mistake in their work.

It was not until Huo Qu was led out of the door by his assistant that they breathed a sigh of relief.

“What happened to Prof. Huo just now?” Researcher A turned to the person nearby, “Is he unwilling to work overtime?”

“What nonsense!” Researcher B pressed the button of the ultra-high-speed centrifuge and turned back, “Who doesn’t know Prof. Huo is a workaholic. After entering the research institute, he hasn’t taken several vacations. How could he be angry because of that?”

“You’re right.” Researcher A pushed his glasses and echoed.

Researcher B looked around and saw that there was no one else around, so he whispered to researcher A, “I heard a little bit of gossip... Prof. Huo is likely to win the prize...”

Researcher A suddenly widened his eyes, and a strong sense of pride immediately burst into his heart, “You mean...”

“That’s right,” Researcher B nodded. “So, he is probably a bit stressful. Let’s work harder tonight and get this set of experimental data earlier.”

“Okay!” Researcher A patted his chest. “Let’s help Prof. Huo to share the pressure. I definitely won’t leave until the early morning tomorrow!”

As a result, on the evening of that day when Huo Qu was going home, he found that none of the people in the lab had left. Prof. Huo, who thought that he had to work extra hours again, felt helpless.

He could bear miss the bedtime and being squeezed his rest time. But for more than ten days without even getting close to Qinghuan was driving him crazy!
