Chapter 176 Shion, Don't Go...

The Xu Xiaofan in front of him really looked like Liu Shiyin, with her fair skin, long black hair, and gentle temperament, which gave him the illusion.

Perhaps it was the alcohol, or perhaps it was his intense longing for Liu Shiyin, but Huo Muchen's rationality seemed to be overwhelmed by his emotions at this moment. He suddenly reached out and hugged Xu Xiaofan tightly.

"What...what are you doing? Let me go!"

Xu Xiaofan feigned surprise as she struggled to push Huo Muchen away, but Huo Muchen's embrace felt like a cage, preventing her from escaping.

Huo Muchen ignored her struggles and instead held her even tighter. His heart was pounding, as if it would burst out of his chest, and his eyes were filled with a hazy longing.

"Shion, don't go..."

He murmured softly, as if speaking to Liu Shiyin.

Hearing this, Xu Xiaofan was filled with jealousy and anger. She gently nudged Huo Muchen and said:

"You've mistaken me for someone else! I'm not Liu Shiyin! Let me go!"

Huo Muchen did not seem to have come to his senses after hearing Xu Xiaofan's words.

"Don't go... Shion, I really miss you..."

His voice trembled slightly and sounded pleading.

"You're drunk, shall I take you home?"

Xu Xiaofan looked at the drunk Huo Muchen and said something, then put Huo Muchen's arm on her shoulder and walked towards the Huo residence.

When Aunt Wang and Lin Xiangyao saw Huo Muchen's drunken state, they quickly went to greet him.

"No need, I'll help Brother Muchen up,"

Xu Xiaofan looked at Aunt Wang and Lin Xiangyao and said,

"Okay, okay, then I'll go make the young master a cup of hangover tea."

As Aunt Wang spoke, she hurriedly ran towards the kitchen.

Lin Xiangyao stood there motionless, looking Xu Xiaofan up and down, who resembled Liu Shiyin somewhat.

Xu Xiaofan felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze, his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked:

"What are you looking at?"

Lin Xiangyao snapped out of her daze and looked at Xu Xiaofan with a half-smile, saying:

"It's nothing, it's just that you remind me of someone I know."

"Hmph, don't look at me with such gloating. At least I look like one, and I'm the eldest daughter of the Xu Group. People should do what they're supposed to do. A maid should do her job of cleaning and serving others, instead of having so many unrealistic fantasies all day long."

Xu Xiaofan looked at Lin Xiangyao and spoke each word with disdain and sarcasm.

Xu Xiaofan's words left Lin Xiangyao stunned. She hadn't expected Xu Xiaofan to point out her thoughts so directly, and every word made her deeply aware of the huge gap between herself and Huo Muchen.

Although Lin Xiangyao was unwilling, she knew that Xu Xiaofan was telling the truth. She was just a maid, while Huo Muchen was the young master of the Huo family. The gap in their social status was insurmountable, and she couldn't help but feel inferior and disappointed.

Xu Xiaofan felt a surge of pride watching Lin Xiangyao's reaction. She believed she had successfully suppressed this potential competitor and made Lin Xiangyao realize her own limitations.

Like a victor, she helped Huo Muchen upstairs to his room, where Xu Xiaofan carefully helped him lie down on the bed.

Aunt Wang quickly brought over the hangover tea. Xu Xiaofan took the tea, gently lifted Huo Muchen's head, and fed him the tea.

Although Huo Muchen was drunk, he gradually calmed down under Xu Xiaofan's care, and his breathing became steady.

Seeing Huo Muchen sleeping peacefully, Xu Xiaofan breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew her mission for the night was complete, and she decided to stay in the room and wait for Huo Muchen to wake up.
