Chapter 780: Chapter 781: Being His ’Fake Girlfriend
She didn’t expose the truth, nor could she figure out who that girl really was.
"Do you have time?" he suddenly spoke up.
Huo Yishan abruptly looked up!
He couldn’t possibly want her to...
"You, you couldn’t possibly mean..."
"It’s you," he said without a moment’s hesitation. To him, although it was fake, subconsciously, the woman who should appear in his life seemed to have always been her and no one else.
Huo Yishan was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out, her face showing astonishment, "Me?"
"Yes!"
"But..."
"Don’t worry, it’s just impersonation, and during this period, I assure you I won’t do anything inappropriate to you."
Huo Yishan was completely stunned.
To be his fake girlfriend? Was this...appropriate?
"Why me? It’s just fake after all, you could ask any woman."
"Qiangwei?"
"What?" She was startled, thinking she had misheard.
"Of the opposite sex that I know, there are only you two."
Huo Yishan suddenly narrowed her eyes, "Are you sure?"
Li Yuan furrowed his brows when questioned by her somewhat skeptical look.
Apart from family, the only women he knew indeed were her and Gu Qiangwei.
Of course, there were many nurses and doctors at the hospital, but they didn’t count as friends and definitely couldn’t be used to impersonate someone, not to mention his family, right?
"Of course."
Huo Yishan was already somewhat swayed, but hearing him spouting such lies made her suddenly feel suffocated!
She really wanted to mention that she had seen him with another woman last time, but she also worried it might seem as though she really cared about him, and thinking about it, she couldn’t bring herself to say it.
"Just agree to help me this one time, and I will agree to anything you ask, unconditionally."
The person who was about to lie down was indeed attracted when he heard this.
"Is that true?"
"Absolutely no false promises."
"What if I want you to do the laundry and cooking?" This request was just a casual remark, as these domestic tasks were typically done by women in the eyes of men.
The reason she asked was to see if he could put aside his male pride.
"It’s possible."
He agreed without even thinking.
Huo Yishan was astonished! He had actually agreed just like that? And so easily!
She suddenly panicked, "No, no, no, I don’t want you to do that!"
This great opportunity, if only used for laundry and cooking, would be too cheap for him.
"Then what should I do?"
She furrowed her brow and thought for a while, but couldn’t come up with anything at the moment, "I haven’t thought of it yet, I’ll tell you when I do."
"So, you agree?"
Huo Yishan was stunned. She had actually agreed?
Although surprised by her own response, she eventually nodded, "But I must clarify, it’s just ’fake girlfriend,’ nothing else."
"Don’t worry."
Suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled up in that long-missed faint smile.
Although it was fake, it made his mood much better.
"But there’s one more thing." He suddenly remembered something.
"What?"
"During this period," he looked at her, hesitating for a few seconds, "you might have to accompany me back to my home, in country A."
Huo Yishan was astonished, "You, your home is in country A?"
"Yes."
"Aren’t you a native of Jingcheng?"
"No."
"Then...what for?"
"To meet my parents."
Meet the parents!?
"But we’re just pretending, there’s no need to meet the parents, right?" And it’s in country A, she felt a bit... scared.
