Love is as vast as the Milky Way, impossible to cross.

Chapter 118 I belong only to you, unless you don't want me.

"Wait a moment, I have a friend here who wants to get to know you."

One of the girls nodded toward the other side, her tone laced with mockery and ridicule.

Liu Shiyin followed her gaze and saw a fat man with big ears walking towards her.

His body was bloated, and the fat on his face jiggled with his steps, making him look somewhat comical. His eyes roamed over Liu Shiyin without restraint, as if he wanted to see her clearly from head to toe.

Liu Shiyin felt a sense of disgust and fear. She disliked being scrutinized like prey. She frowned slightly, wanting to find an excuse to avoid the man.

But just then, the man walked up to them, grinned to reveal a row of uneven teeth, and gave Liu Shiyin what he thought was a friendly smile.

"Hello, I'm Lin Dazhi, nice to meet you."

The man's voice was greasy and hoarse, which sounded somewhat unpleasant. He reached out to shake hands with Liu Shiyin, but Liu Shiyin subconsciously dodged his hand.

"Hello,"

Liu Shiyin responded softly and politely. She didn't want to have too much interaction with this man and just wanted to end this awkward situation as soon as possible.

However, the man seemed oblivious to Liu Shiyin's displeasure and instead engaged her in conversation with even greater enthusiasm.

"Would it be convenient to exchange contact information?"

Lin Dazhi then took out his phone.

Hearing Lin Dazhi's words, Liu Shiyin became even more panicked. She didn't want to give this man her contact information, much less have any deeper interaction with him.

So she politely declined.

"I'm sorry, it's not convenient for me to add your contact information right now."

Lin Dazhi seemed somewhat disappointed, but he did not give up and continued to try to find topics to chat with Liu Shiyin.

He kept asking Liu Shiyin about her personal information and lifestyle, trying to find common ground to get closer to her.

But Liu Shiyin only gave a perfunctory response, while she was already planning how to escape.

Just then, Huo Muchen walked over. He saw Liu Shiyin and Lin Dazhi standing together and immediately sensed that something was wrong.

He walked to Liu Shiyin's side, gently put his arm around her shoulder, and turned to look at Lin Dazhi. But before he could speak, he heard Lin Dazhi's trembling voice.

"Young Master Huo is here too. This... I'm so sorry. I just arrived and saw Miss Liu here alone, so... I, Lin Dazhi, was blind to your greatness. I'm truly sorry. I'll punish myself with this drink. Please forgive my rudeness, Young Master Huo."

As Lin Dazhi spoke, he downed the wine in his hand in one gulp, trying to quell Huo Muchen's anger.

However, Huo Muchen ignored him and instead asked Liu Shiyin:

"Is anything wrong?"

Liu Shiyin looked up at Huo Muchen and gently shook her head.

Huo Muchen glanced at the two women beside him who seemed to have eyes only for him, and the disheveled Lin Dazhi, but didn't say much. He simply took Liu Shiyin's hand and left the banquet.

Sitting in the car, Liu Shiyin was held tightly in Huo Muchen's arms. She felt his warm breath and strong chest, and an indescribable sense of security welled up in her heart.

Huo Muchen's voice rang softly in her ear, tinged with a hint of teasing and doting:

"I'll keep you with me at all times from now on, otherwise someone will come and take you away."

Upon hearing this, Liu Shiyin smiled gently, sat up straight, cupped Huo Muchen's face in her hands, and said with utmost seriousness:

"I belong only to you, unless you don't want me."

Her eyes were firm yet gentle, as if they could melt everything.

Huo Muchen was deeply moved by her eyes and words, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
