The Twins Went Missing (15)

"Oh, she went back?" When Rick talked about Xixi, he obviously lacked confidence.

Through his eyes, Huo Mian could see that a lot was on his mind.

"Did you really forget about her?" Huo Mian asked.

"So what if I didn't?" Rick smiled bitterly.

"Rick. My sixth sense is usually accurate and I'm pretty good at reading people... I think you still like Xixi."

"Yes, I like Xixi." When Rick uttered Xixi's name, his eyes gave out a rare, soft light.

Huo Mian remained silent.

"But with relationships, just love isn't enough. There are many other things that come into play…"

"Like what?" Huo Mian frowned.

"A person's background," Rick slowly uttered.

"You don't like her because she came from an ordinary background?" Huo Mian seemed surprised.

"No. I'm disgusted by myself. Xixi's from a normal family but I'm not." Then, he looked at Huo Mian and continued to say, "Qin Chu probably told you what I do for a living."
