Chapter 900: The Huo Family Actors I (1/2)
Huo Yunting looked at Huo Li quietly, refusing to lay out his cards. The latter was annoyed that he could not tell whether Huo Yunting was giving him a look of sympathy or ridicule.
Fortunately, the staredown ended swiftly. “Don’t worry. Just focus on helping me with this one thing,” Huo Yunting said slowly.
“What is it?”
Huo Yunting asked him to come closer and whispered in his ear.
“Got it?”
Huo Li looked invigorated.
“Of course, consider it done!”
“Goodbye.”
Huo Li slipped away with renewed enthusiasm. Huo Yunting did not linger as well. He used his wife as an excuse to leave for the capital and ignored all the rumours gradually building up in the company.
In the hospital, he hugged his beloved daughter and then helped Lu Zhaoyang back to her room.
After she settled down in bed, she asked, “Is Xiang Jinxi back?”
Huo Yunting raised an eyebrow. “How did you know?”
“Anyone with a brain can work it out, okay?” Lu Zhaoyang said and frowned. “Who else would dare to challenge you so openly? Besides, the name of that company makes it even more obvious.”
Huo Yunting looked at her in surprise. “I see that not all women become dumb after their pregnancy.”
“…”
Lu Zhaoyang rolled her eyes at him and frowned worriedly. That made her husband’s heart ache.
He wrapped her in his arms and buried his head in the crook of her neck to savour her smell.
“Don’t worry, know that I will take care of this. Just stay in the capital in the meantime and stay away from the city.”
Huo Yunting was keeping Xiang Jinxi in check, while Huo Chen had his eye on Bruce’s family. Lu Zhaoyang would be safe.
“Alright.”
