Chapter 1078 - He Proposed to Me (1/2)
Hearing Xia Mo mention Xiao Yi, Xiao Feng’s eyes darkened.
He pursed his lips and did not answer.
Xia Mo looked at Xiao Feng in confusion. She remembered that Unce Xiao was Xiao Feng’s idol. Xiao Feng’s eyes would s.h.i.+ne whenever Uncle Xiao was mentioned.
“Boss, we’re here.”
One of the men behind said when the elevator reached the first floor.
Hearing the man call Xiao Feng ‘Boss’, Xia Mo frowned.
It had only been two months since she had last returned to Hong Kong, how did Xiao Feng suddenly become the boss? If she remembered correctly, he was the third-in-charge!
“Sister Xia Mo, I have something on. I’ll go first.” Xiao Feng left the elevator with his men.
Xia Mo was stunned for a moment before she quickly followed.
Today, Xiao Feng was wearing a black coat and sungla.s.ses, with the air of a big boss. Xia Mo ran after him to his car. His men wanted to stop Xia Mo, but Xiao Feng waved his hand and his men stepped aside.
Xia Mo looked up at Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng looked fair and delicate. From his appearance, one could not see how cruel he was. In fact, it was hard to imagine that such a person would become a boss.
“What happened to Uncle Xiao? Wasn’t he your boss?”
Xiao Feng did not take off his sungla.s.ses so Xia Mo could not see the expression in his eyes. He was silent for a while, and just when Xia Mo thought that he would not answer her, she heard him say, “Boss quit the mafia.” Then, he got into the car.
…
Xia Mo pa.s.sed Young Master Huo the clothes and the two of them came out of the hotel.
Young Master Huo slung his arm around Xia Mo’s shoulders like they were buddies. “Little Momo, I found that you’re the flower that treats me the best amongst all flowers.”
Pus.h.i.+ng away Young Master Huo’s hand, Xia Mo took a few steps forward. “I don’t want to be picked by you.”
“Hey, hey, hey. I find that seeing you this time, you’re a little different. Tell me honestly, are you interested in a man?” Young Master Huo stopped in front of Xia Mo and raised his eyebrows. “Is he as handsome and humorous as me?”
“You’re not humorous at all! You’re just flirtatious!” A face flashed past Xia Mo’s mind. A delicate face, with gla.s.s-like eyes and when he smiled, and that faint dimple.. Wait a second, why was she thinking of him?
Who cared about that strange doctor who did not show any kindness towards her!
Although he was Chief Editor Xia’s brother and seemed to love Chief Editor Xia a lot, he seemed to have a bad impression of her!
Why would she think of him?
Xia Mo quickly shook her head.
Young Master Huo took one look at Xia Mo’s expression and knew that she had someone in her heart. He patted Xia Mo’s head. “Wow, it’s unbelievable. The little girl who never put any man into her heart would have a day where her heart was moved!”
Xia Mo’s ears turned red and she glared at Young Master Huo. “What nonsense are you talking about? I’m your child bride.”
Young Master Huo raised his hands in surrender. “Forget it, I never thought of marrying you at all. I’ll have to make it clear to my grandparents sometime.”
Xia Mo felt relieved when she heard Young Master Huo’s words. Previously, she felt nothing whether he said it or not since she did not meet someone she liked. But now, she was relieved and happy hearing him say those words. She did not know why she felt such a way.
She returned to the Huo family’s mansion and had dinner with them.
Thinking of Xiao Yi, Xia Mo still summoned her courage and found Fourth Master Huo, whom she feared most in the Huo family.
Fourth Master Huo was Young Master Huo’s fourth uncle and seemed to have a good relations.h.i.+p with Xiao Yi.
Fourth Master Huo was on the phone in the courtyard after dinner. After his phone call, he narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw Xia Mo after turning around. “Xiaomo, is there anything you need?”
