My Youth Began With Him Chapter 83: Guarding the Mourning Hall

"Huo Mian? Which Huo Mian? That bastard daughter my dad had with a random woman?" Huo Yanyan, the mistress's daughter, said venomously. She was completely spoiled and disregarded everyone. 1

"Bastard daughter? Well, if you put it that way, your mom is also a mistress, does that mean that you are a bastard daughter, too?" Huo Siqian said with a smile, as if he was joking.

Shen Jiani's expression changed after she heard his words…

Huo Yanyan was also displeased. "Big brother, how can you compare me with her? I grew up in the Huo Family and my mother has a title. Her mother is nothing, she's just a b*tch who ran away with dad's chauffeur."

Huo Mian only looked coldly at Huo Yanyan and said, "Those who are well educated would never speak such vulgar words. It seems like the manners of a dignified daughter of the Huo Family is subpar."

My Youth Began With Him Chapter 84: Scheme

Huo Mian nodded her head…

Huo Siqian smiled, "See, I knew my little sister Mian is the most reliable one. When it really counts, a person's true colors will come out."

"Big brother, what are you trying to say? It's not that I don't want to do it, I'm just not feeling well..." Huo Yanyan tried to explain.

"Alright, stop fighting. It's settled then." Huo Zhenghai gave Huo Mian a complicated look.

- After 9 PM -

Huo Mian was the only one left in the mourning hall. Several wreaths were placed on the sides of the coffin, within which her grandmother's body lied.

She was told that the funeral was tomorrow so she would have to stay for the night.

Huo Mian graduated from medical school and had worked in the hospital for so long, so she was accustomed to being around dead bodies.

Besides, it was her close relative's, so she wasn't scared at all.

Huo Yanyan is such a chicken… This family really can't be counted on.

She slightly bowed her head to burn some joss paper. Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her.

My Youth Began With Him Chapter 85: Company

"Yes." Huo Mian answered honestly.

"Are you scared?" Qin Chu's voice suddenly became gentle, like he was amusing a child.

"Why would I be? I went to medical school, so I'm fine around dead bodies. But when I think of grandma laying inside the coffin, I'm still a little sad."

"Life and death are laws of nature. No one can do anything about it. Don't dwell on it."

"I know."

After Huo Mian answered, she changed the topic, "It's late. why are you still awake?"

"I just got back from a business trip."

"This late?"

"Yeah."

"You must be exhausted. Get some rest," Huo Mian said softly.

However, Qin Chu didn't have any intention of going to bed, "Don't hang up the phone. I'll keep you company."

My Youth Began With Him Chapter 86: The Funeral

Unexpectedly, on the other side, Qin Chu only said quietly, "Stay away from that pervert Huo Siqian from now on."

"…" All of a sudden, Huo Mian didn't know what to say.

"Did you hear me?" Qin Chu warned her in a childish tone.

"Yes, I know."

"The funeral is at 7 AM right?" A few minutes ago, through the phone, Qin Chu heard the feng shui master talking.

"Yes." Huo Mian nodded.

"I will wait for you at the gates of the graveyard later."

"It's fine. I'm just going to head to work at the hospital after this."

"I already asked them to give you a day off. Come home and rest today."

"Em…" Huo Mian was again speechless.

This guy was fast. He had already asked the hospital to give her a day off.

But she was very curious. The clinic had been really busy recently, so why did the head nurse give her a day off so easily?

"The head nurse… did she approve my day off?" Huo Mian asked in disbelief.

However, Qin Chu answered casually, "I called Wu Zhongxing."

My Youth Began With Him Chapter 87: High-Key

"How can I possibly befriend a person like that? I would become so depressed," Zhu Lingling said with a hint of disdain.

The attendants of the funeral ceremony marched forward in streaming columns all the way to the North Hill Public Cemetery. Grandma Huo was to be buried in the best feng shui spot available – the peak of the mountain.

Supposedly, a space in this cemetery cost fifty thousand yuan per square meter.

It was terribly expensive, but the Huo family purchased two thousand square meters in one go – forging their very own, exclusive, mausoleum.

On the side, Huo Mian stood silently with her sunglasses on.

Suddenly, Huo Siyi walked up to her and said, "What are you looking at? Are you envious? This is the mausoleum that dad bought exclusively for the Huo family. Don't even think about being buried here, a bastard daughter like you would never be qualified."

My Youth Began With Him Chapter 88: Wardrobe Malfunction

"This was the only black car left in the garage," Qin Chu said lightly.

"..." Huo Mian was left speechless again. Must be nice to be rich.

Qin Chu drove the car all the way back to Imperial Park, and, after Huo Mian went upstairs, she couldn't help but feel a sense of belonging.

Simply put, it was the feeling of safety and calmness that Huo Mian felt when she arrived home after a long day.

Either out of habit or exhaustion, Huo Mian curled up on the couch and quickly fell asleep.

Qin Chu furrowed his brows ever so slightly when he saw Huo Mian like that; it was as if someone was tugging at his heartstrings.

He then brought out a white blanket from the bedroom and covered Huo Mian up.

She fell fast asleep, and so, she dreamt...

In her dream, she saw Grandma Huo, who was wearing a plain-dyed gown. She sat on the rocks outside of a temple and was working on embroidering a handkerchief.

Chapter 1 Left To Die

Ximena Griffin didn't know how many times she had dialed Ramon Mitchell's number in the past hour, but all her attempts had been unsuccessful.

She had just given birth to their baby.  How could he be this heartless?

The white hospital blanket crumpled in her hands, her vision blurry.  She bit her lower lip so hard in exasperation that her teeth pricked blood out.  Outside, she could faintly hear someone demanding for the doctor to keep the baby alive.  At that moment, she remembered that today was Ramon's wedding to another woman.

She knew he only wanted to keep the baby, not her.

He even already had a name for the baby and a new mother to replace her.

How preposterous!

Fighting back the tears and taking in the excruciating pain all over her body, Ximena held her baby tightly in her arms.

Chapter 1 The Rumor

In the mourning hall, the air was heavy with grief.  Heidy Hua stood quietly at the side, her eyes red with tears as she stared at the man in the coffin.  There were many people who came to mourn, all of them bowing to pay their respects.

"I'm sorry for your loss," they would all say as they came up to her.

"Thank you," she would reply, her hands gracefully folded in front of her as she bowed back to them.

As she looked at her father lying down on the coffin, Heidy wished with all her might that he was just playing a prank on her, that he was just asleep and that he would soon open his eyes to tell her that he was still alive.  However, it seemed more like a nightmare from which she couldn't be able to wake up from.  The more she thought about it, the more pain she felt in her heart.  But she had to endure it.  She couldn't let herself break down.

The ceremony was still going on, and more and more people came to mourn.  After having a word with the steward, Heidy went off and walked towards the villa in the backyard.  It had been over twenty four hours since she had had some decent sleep.  With her head throbbing, Heidy just wanted to have a few minutes of rest.

Chapter 1 Same Dress

A myriad of luxurious cars weaved in through the hotel gates as seamlessly as a shuffled deck of cards.  A dazzling array of celebrities, socialites and those among the most powerful and influential people of A City had gathered here today to celebrate and honor the prestigious 30th anniversary of Soaring Group.

Soon after, a Volkswagen Phaeton, with a sleek metallic paint finish, stopped at the hotel driveway and the bellhop stepped forward to open the door.

Melinda Mo sprang out of the car, clearly in a hurry to go somewhere.  In fact, Melinda Mo was rushing to get to a banquet that she almost missed, not because it was her own fault but because she didn't receive the invitation until much later.

"Where is Jonas?" she asked anxiously.

"Mr. Gu is already here.  He is in the banquet hall right now."

Gently lifting the hemline of her red dress, Melinda Mo sped to the banquet hall.  She was already very late.  The banquet hall was a grand space, to say the least.  The walls were covered with a shimmering gold paper and in the middle of the ceiling above the carved oak table was a candelabra.  The polished silver cutlery was heavy to the hand and shone brightly in the early evening light.  At each place stood a tall empty wine glass and there were beautifully folded napkins to match the runner.  The room was invaded by beautiful women, showing off their spectacular jewelries and dashing young men, laughing and chatting about business and politics.

Chapter 1 Groomless Wedding

“Poor bride.  She’s been standing there for hours waiting for the groom,” I heard a woman’s whispering voice.

“It’s truly so sad.  I can’t imagine how sad she’s feeling,” Another woman replied in a hushed tone.

“Do you think the groom has ditched her?”  A man whispered in a low voice.

“That would be too sad.  Please don’t say that…” Another woman replied with what seemed to be genuine sadness in her voice.

I stood silently in front of the altar in a white wedding dress that was far too elegant for my tastes and far too heavy for my comfort.  The overly high-heel shoes that I was wearing was starting to hurt my feet and my legs were starting to feel sore from standing still for too long.  I clenched and then unclenched my hands together for the hundredth time, or something along those lines since I had already lost count.

The sequined lace fabric of the dress that covered my arms in a long sleeve was itchy, not that anyone cared.  I didn’t choose this dress.  I have never met my groom.  I was in love with another man.  Most of all, I didn’t want to get married.

Chapter 1 Intro

She was an angel while he was as ferocious as a demon.   Was it a mistake from the beginning when two people from utterly different backgrounds crossed paths for the first time?

In the dark, a silhouette of two figures drifted in the shadows.

Hannah Song faced the man hiding in the darkness with vacant eyes and asked, "Brian...   Mmmm...   Do you love me?"

No response was heard.   The man didn't stop his rhythmic movement.

Hannah found it hard to concentrate, but she couldn't afford to miss the chance.   This was her perfect opportunity to get that most awaited promise while Brian was lost in the pleasure of lovemaking.   "Brian, will you...   marry me?"

"Sure,"  Brian Long answered in a low and seductive voice, which gave her a sense of casual coldness.   His tone sounded slightly oppressive in this dark room with a subtly strange atmosphere.

"Really?"   Her eyes lit up immediately as she asked with sheer excitement.

Chapter 1 The Divorce Agreement

"Philip, this is the divorce agreement.  I've already signed it.  Please give it to Carlos."

Debbie Nelson plucked up her courage and handed the signed agreement to Philip Brown, the steward of the Hilton family.

Philip was shocked by the words "divorce agreement".  His first thought was that Debbie wanted to get a divorce so as to carve up the property that belonged to Carlos Hilton.

But as he looked through the document, he saw that she wanted to give up everything, including her share of the mutual property.

Philip heaved a heavy sigh.  "Debbie, why are you being ridiculous?  Why would you want to divorce Mr. Hilton and even choose to give up your property?"

Debbie was only a college student, and she had no parents.  It was unwise for her to ask for a divorce now, much less give up her property that was worth quite a fortune.

Embarrassed, Debbie looked away and scratched the back of her head.  "Carlos and I have been married for three years, but our marriage only exists on paper.  I don't want to waste my time on him anymore," she admitted, instead of hiding the reason from Philip.

Chapter 1 A Mischance And A Mess

I walked briskly out of the hotel lobby after I finished helping my Head of Department drop off the papers he had forgotten at the office and picked up some extra ones from him.  I walked with the intensity of a child late for school as I made my way down the stairs without even looking down, completely buried in my thoughts, when I missed a step.  I tripped and was falling onto a man who was about to climb up the stairs and he could have caught me, but instead, he shifted out of the way and with vigorous force, I came crashing down to the ground.  The documents flew out of my hand and scattered around me like autumn leaves in the wind.

He observed the scene before him with a subtle smirk.  He chose not to extend a helping hand, enjoying the sight of me groaning in pain and embarrassment.  It was as if he found amusement in watching me fall.  I looked up, ready to express my annoyance, but before I could say anything, he walked off without saying a word

I muttered to myself, "wow, how rude and heartless can someone be?  What kind of person just watches someone fall and does nothing?"

Feeling indignant, I got up from the ground and knelt to gather my documents.  The man overhearing my remark, stopped in his tracks and turned back to face me.

"Heartless?  That's quite an assumption to make."

"Well, your actions speak volumes.  You didn't even bother to apologize!"  I said irritatedly as I stood up to him.

"Apologies are overrated, don't you think?"  He responded nonchalantly as his guards tried to step in but he dismissed them.

Chapter 1 Bride in distress

Nadia O'Hara found herself stuck in what felt like a living daytime nightmare, she forcefully attempted to subdue the huge wave of panic surging up her throat as her mother pulled down the white veil to cover her face.

"You look perfect dear."  Her mother said warmly.  But for some reason, that only amplified the panic she was feeling.  She couldn't even muster the forced smile she'd been using for the past few days during the wedding preparations.

Glancing up at her mother, the woman held a soft expression, tears gleaming in her light grey eyes exactly the same as hers, which she had inherited from her mother of course.

She wanted to voice some soothing words but couldn't bring herself to say a word.

With a joyful sigh her mother led her out of the inner room, inside of the main bedroom sat a few ladies dressed in dark green dresses, the color for the bridal train.

"Oh_my_Gooooood!"  Someone squealed the minute she stepped out of the inner room.

"Dia, you look...  Wow!"  Serene, Nadia's best friend and bride's maid came forward as she sized Nadia up in admiration, the other ladies in the room also followed in their words of praises for Nadia, but the nervous feeling just seemed to surge within her.

Immediately they got there, all eyes turned to Rosy, and she wondered why.

"What's happening?  Why are they all staring at you?"  Erica muttered, and the students started making way surprisingly.

Rosy entered the circle through the way they made, only to get to the middle to meet the shock of her life.

Stefan!  Her Stefan is on a knee in front of Olivia her bestie.

He's already wearing the ring in her finger, and Olivia couldn't stop smiling.

Rosy's jaws dropped, and her head banged.  Sweat beads appeared on her forehead immediately, and she started feeling cold at the same time.  Her throat began quivering, this is definitely a dream.

Her boyfriend and her bestie?  No!

"Stefan!  Olivia!"  She walked up to them, and Stefan stood to face her.

"I'm sorry, Rosy.  I fell in love with Olivia since our first year in this school, but if i told you, you'd definitely stop paying my fees, and that's why we had to keep our relationship a secret.  Don't worry, when I get a job I'm gonna pay all the fees you payed" he smiled, and Rosy's heart fell.

Big flow of tears fell from her two eyes, and she was shaking obviously as she faced Olivia.

Chapter 1 Ex-girlfriend Returns

Raegan Hayes was a little absent-minded at the moment.

All she could think of since this afternoon was the doctor's words.  "Congratulations!  You are pregnant."

Suddenly, Mitchel Dixon pinched her arm hard.  His low voice came the next second.  "Come back to earth.  What are you thinking about?"

Before she could respond to that, Mitchel kissed Raegan hard after holding the back of her head lovingly.

He then went into the bathroom.

Raegan lay motionless in the massive bed.  Damp strands of her hair stuck to her temples and cheeks.  She stared at the ceiling with her eyes brimming with tears.  Her naked body was aching slightly.
