The dinner gathering probably ended around 9 pm, and the return trip was still driven by Shen Yu because Huo Mingshan had been drinking.
On the way back, Huo Feng sat alone in the back seat, sullen, his gaze drifting outside the window, staring blankly and losing focus.
That night, the confessions Han Lei made to Pu Sangzhi particularly gnawed at Huo Feng. Especially that phrase, "The one who ends up with her is the winner, everything now is temporary"...
That sentence was outright threatening, making Huo Feng not only uncomfortable listening to it but it also stuck in his mind!
Although Han Lei was somewhat blindly confident, what he said wasn't entirely devoid of sense.
Indeed, the one who ends up with her is the winner, everything now is temporary.
That phrase echoed in Huo Feng's head, a sense of unease roiling in his heart.
