- Chapter 79 - Changing Contact Name
The warm breath on Li Su’s neck made her skin tingle. Though she couldn’t see Huo Xuanye’s face, she could easily imagine his expression right now.
Hmm.
Might as well tease him a little.
Li Su typed, changing the name “Huo Xuanye” in her contacts to,”Ex-Husband’s Little Brother.”
Huo Xuanye pinched her waist, annoyed but not daring to get too angry. He bit her earlobe and whispered, “Sis-in-law, do you want me to call you that?”
“How about I call you that all night tonight?”
Damn!
She was just joking.
“Or are you still hung up on my brother? Should we go back to the Huo family mansion tonight so you can see him? Ever since he drank himself into the hospital last time, he seems much more normal now, probably starting to forget about you…”
Huo Xuanye’s voice was so low it was almost inaudible, his words brushing against her ear like a secret.
The warmth of his breath swirled into her ear, tickling her unbearably.
“Sis-in-law, between the two of us brothers, you can only choose one~”
“You can’t have both.”
“You’ll pick me, right…?”
“We’re legally married…”
“Our relationship is recognized by law…”
Li Su turned her head away, but he chased after her, relentless.
“What’s his name in your contacts? ‘Ex-Husband’? Or ‘Hubby’s Big Brother’?”
“Su Su, let me see~”
Li Su showed him.
Huo Xuanye stared at the screen.
Just two words:
Huo Zhenzhou.
Fair enough.
They were both just names.
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Who wanted fairness?!
He was her husband!
He had status!
He refused to be treated the same as his brother!!
“Change it. I don’t want ‘Ex-Husband’s Little Brother’, might as well just keep my name.”
Huo Xuanye’s breathing was heavy, clearly having worked himself into a huff.
Li Su deleted “Ex-Husband’s Little Brother” and replaced it with “dear.”
“Happy now?”
“Dear”, meaning beloved.
“Did my brother ever have this name in your contacts?” Huo Xuanye was fixated.
Li Su laughed. “You married his ex-fiancée, and now you’re hung up on a contact name?”
“It’s different.”
“He didn’t.”
“What did you have him saved as before?”
“Haven’t you seen it?”
When Huo Zhenzhou went missing, Huo Xuanye had handled her phone for her.
Then he remembered.
Li Su had once saved his brother as “A-Zhou.”
Honestly, if she saved him as “A’Ye,” he’d be thrilled too.
But she chose “dear“!
Not just beloved, this word also meant precious, treasured.
In Li Su’s eyes, he was both beloved and precious.
He understood.
Women were more reserved with their feelings.
Even if Li Su hadn’t confessed, her love was hidden in the details.
This contact name was proof of her love for him.
Huo Xuanye murmured, “Take a screenshot and send it to me.”
“Screenshot? Of what?”
“Just our chat interface.”
Though confused, Li Su indulged this tiny, insignificant request.
She took the screenshot and sent it to him.
The moment he received it, he finally let her go.
Huo Xuanye stared at the word “dear” above his name, no secret satisfaction here, he was openly gloating!
He posted on his social media: A good man always picks up his wife from work!
Seemingly praising himself, but really just showing off Li Su’s contact name for him.
Soon, comments rolled in.
[This screenshot isn’t from your side!]
Someone had noticed.
Li Su watched quietly, amused by this harmless, childish little game.
Let him have his fun.
As long as he was happy.
Half a month later, the magazine featuring Li Su and Huo Xuanye was released.
Both the Huo residence and the Li household received numerous copies, sent as gifts.
Some were also purchased by Huo Xuanye himself.
Li Su was in the middle of rehabilitation exercises in the dance studio when she received a call from Lin Yaoqing.
“Li Su!! You actually sent it to me?!”
“Who wants your stupid magazine?!”
Sitting on the floor, Li Su set her phone aside. “A person should keep their word.”
“Break it, I beg you! Who wants to see you two flaunt your love?! Why don’t you send this magazine to your ex-husband instead?!”
“Let him see it!”
“Oh, I forgot, he already dumped you. Even if he saw it, he wouldn’t regret it.”
The fact that Huo Zhenzhou had lost his memory had been kept strictly confidential.
So to outsiders, it simply seemed that Huo Zhenzhou had changed his heart and married Zhou Motang for that reason, not because he no longer remembered Li Su.
“How do you know he didn’t receive a copy?” Li Su countered calmly.
That attention-seeking Huo Xuanye would definitely have sent him one.
Li Su was right. Huo Zhenzhou had received it.
Four copies were placed on his office desk, as if afraid he might miss them.
Dressed in a tailored suit, Huo Zhenzhou sat in his office, his dark eyes fixed on the magazine cover.
On it, Li Su wore a red dress, her high heel pressed against Xuan Ye’s chest.
Even though he hadn’t been present for the shoot, he could almost feel the smoldering intensity of their gaze.
This magazine had undoubtedly been sent by Huo Xuanye on purpose.
Huo Zhenzhou leisurely picked it up, flipping through only the sections featuring Huo Xuanye and Li Su.
Beyond the photos, there were interviews.
How they had met.
Their impressions of each other before marriage.
Nothing but praise.
Li Su described Huo Xuanye as gentle yet resilient, elegant and graceful, cultured and refined.
In turn, Huo Xuanye praised Li Su as witty and charming, handsome and dashing, considerate and attentive.
Editor Mu Mu: Mr. Huo, how has married life been for you?
Huo Xuanye: Sweet as honey! Joyful! Blissful! Marrying Li Su is the honor of my life. I must especially thank my brother for shifting his affections, otherwise, I wouldn’t have had this opportunity.
Huo Zhenzhou: “…”
Was that really necessary to say during an interview?
And even if he had said it, did they really have to print it?!
Interview drafts were typically reviewed by the subjects before publication.
So either Huo Xuanye had seen this line and deliberately left it in, or he hadn’t bothered to have the editor remove it.
Editor Mu Mu: Mr. Huo, did you develop feelings for Ms. Li a long time ago?
Huo Xuanye: Liking her is easy, not liking her is the hard part. Though I didn’t realize my feelings back then. I thought I just admired her dancing and her beauty. At the time, I saw her as my sister-in-law.
Editor Mu Mu: Ms. Li, how has married life been for you?
Li Su: Quite eventful. This past year alone has been more dramatic than the last five or six combined.
Editor Mu Mu: Earlier, Mr. Huo mentioned he’d liked you for a long time. Did you ever sense that, Ms. Li?
Li Su: No. Not at all. Not even a little.
Editor Mu Mu: And now?
Li Su: Now I can feel it. He often tells me he likes me, that he loves me. Maybe because we’re married now, there’s no need to hide his feelings.
Reading this, Huo Zhenzhou reflected that Huo Xuanye’s personality was nothing like his own.
He had liked Li Su for a long time before confessing.
He had been fortunate, Li Su had liked him back, accepting his feelings.
But his luck had run out.
Last year had been his unluckiest yet.
Huo Xuanye hadn’t just sent the magazine to a few people, he had sent it to many.
Still sending messages in the family group chat.
[Huo Xuanye: Dear family, the magazine featuring Su Su and me is out now. I’ve already delivered copies to each of you, please take a look.]
Mom, Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma all replied that they’d seen it.
Huo Zhenzhou leisurely replied with a “seen it” as well.
After hanging up Lin Yaoqing’s call, Li Su saw Huo Zhenzhou’s message.
She just had to say it again!
Huo Xuanye is such an attention-seeker!
