Chapter 873: Huo Yingcheng, Yu Bao’er (45)

But for some reason, she didn’t feel happy when she heard this.

Huo Yingcheng helped her move her luggage over, and after several trips, the duo finally transferred all of her belongings to the apartment.

After settling down the luggage, Yu Bao’er counted on her fingers as she gazed at the vast and empty room. “I still need to buy some household appliances such as a fridge if I’m staying here for the long term.”

“Can’t you just order these things online? I’ve already helped you order it. You can just have it sent here.”

Yu Bao’er suddenly flared up when she heard this. She frowned and said in a displeased tone, “Why are you helping me to order? I know how to do it myself. How much is it? I’ll transfer the money to you.”

Huo Yingcheng fell silent for a moment, then said, “It’s ordered according to your requirements. Around sixty thousand yuan.”

Yu Bao’er no longer sounded so bold this time.

“Six… sixty thousand yuan?”

She didn’t have much money with her when she came out this time. Her mother also didn’t give her any money.

Previously she had more or less finished spending all her money during her Penalan trip and was now only left with twenty to thirty thousand yuan.

Yu Bao’er hadn’t expected Huo Yingcheng to order so many things for her in one shot. With a sullen face, she said, “Can’t you discuss with me before you place some orders? I don’t need so much. What exactly did you buy?”

Huo Yingcheng also flared up. “Why are you getting mad when I’m paying for it? I was the one who helped you look for the apartment. I was the one who helped you order the appliances. I didn’t ask that you pay me back immediately. Why are you so worked up?”

“You did everything without consulting me!”

Yu Bao’er started getting mad too.

She was vexed over her state with Huo Yingcheng last night, to begin with, and right now, Huo Yingcheng was meddling in her affairs as though it was rightful for him to do so. He didn’t even ask if she could afford it.

Although it was a tad pretentious to think like this after accepting to rent the apartment Huo Yingcheng found for her, Yu Bao’er couldn’t control herself.

“I’m only doing this because Qingjiu asked me to help. Or else you think I will come?”

Huo Yingcheng got angry too, especially after being scolded after all he had done to help her. Unable to fathom Yu Bao’er’s thinking, it was natural that he got mad.

“…”

Yu Bao’er stopped talking.

She suddenly felt especially aggrieved. Not because of this matter, but because Qingjiu had asked him to help.

Of course, she wasn’t blaming Qingjiu. But if Qingjiu had not asked him to help, would he not have wanted to do so of his own accord?

Yu Bao’er directly asked, “So you wouldn’t have helped if Qingjiu hadn’t asked you to do so? Then no need for that. I’ll return the money to you slowly. Do you think I am that spineless? That’s right, I am that spineless!”

Huo Yingcheng: “…”

He was fuming originally, but when he heard this he nearly laughed out loud.

But he definitely couldn’t laugh, so he had to force himself to keep a straight face, resulting in his facial muscles twitching due to his restraint.

Yu Bao’er, though, read that as an expression of fury. The way those facial muscles were twitching gave her the impression that he was angered to the max and had an urge to beat people up.

She got scared.

After all, Huo Yingcheng was of a big build. With his face tensed up like that, he looked terrifying.

Yu Bao’er felt aggrieved. All she did was say a few words and this person got so agitated that he wanted to beat people up. Had she spoken more, would he have tossed her out of this place outright?

Looking at Yu Bao’er’s manner, Huo Yingcheng let out a scoff and turned around to leave. “I’m leaving. Wait here by yourself.”

Once out the door, he whipped out a cigarette and lit it.

This lass was vexing.
