Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Che Huan shook her head and opened her eyes. The moment she thought of that scene again, she suddenly froze!

If it wasn’t Gu Jizhou, could the dog chasing her five years ago have been the regiment commander?

Could that man in the dark have been Huo Jinnan?

Soon, she shook her head again.

The idea was simply too absurd!

Why would she suddenly think that?

Looking toward the direction of the study, Che Huan tried to organize her chaotic thoughts, struggling to calm down. Once some ideas took root, they grew uncontrollably and wildly, as if she were bewitched!

She ran her fingers through her hair and got up to return to the bedroom, lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling without focusing her eyes.

If it wasn’t him, why would he help her for no reason?

If it was him, how could Gu Jizhou possibly marry her?

The regiment commander, yes, the regiment commander!

She tried to remember. Everything happened so suddenly that night and she hadn’t seen the dog clearly, just felt that it vaguely resembled the regiment commander in build.

Later, Gu Jizhou claimed it was his friend’s pet dog, and she had also met that friend who indeed had a German Shepherd that looked roughly the same as the regiment commander—

Hearing Huanhuan patting the door outside with its paw, Che Huan looked up, got out of bed, and walked to the door. She wanted to open it but then stopped.

As she stood there in a daze, the bedroom door suddenly opened!

Che Huan looked up, incredulously staring at Huo Jinnan standing in the doorway!

A few seconds later, she glanced at where the door lock should be, no key in sight.

Almost instantly, her gaze shifted back to Huo Jinnan, who also had no key in his hand!

How... how did the door open?

Huo Jinnan handed her the bag.

Che Huan watched him, recalling the words he had said earlier in the study, ”I’ve said before that in this world, there are only doors I don’t wish to enter, not ones I can’t.”

Savoring the implication of his words, it seemed to carry an extra layer of ambiguity. She wasn’t sure if he was doing it on purpose or if she was overthinking—after all, they were both adults!

”Bag,” Huo Jinnan said, lowering his gaze to the bag in his hand.

Coming back to her senses, Che Huan took the bag and was about to close the door when Huanhuan had already squeezed in.

Huo Jinnan glanced at Huanhuan, who had jumped onto the bed. ”It wants to sleep with you.”

...

Che Huan didn’t respond and closed the door forcefully, locking it securely in one smooth motion, then turned to look at Huanhuan, her breathing uneven.

So, Jizhou didn’t open the door to the study from the inside?

If it was him, that would have been too terrifying!

While thinking, Che Huan walked over and sat on the bed.

Huanhuan didn’t pay any attention to Che Huan, as if it was holding a grudge against her for locking it out on purpose.

She stroked Huanhuan’s head: ”Huanhuan, did we meet five years ago?”

Huanhuan kept its eyes closed, not reacting at all.

After watching Huanhuan for a while, Che Huan didn’t press further. She was probably being too sensitive, right?

How could it possibly be Huo Jinnan!

But if not him, who could it be?

She thought back to five years ago. If it hadn’t been for Gu Yunqing telling her that person was Gu Jizhou, if she hadn’t been pregnant and unwilling to give up that child, she wouldn’t have married Gu Jizhou!

Lying in bed, she recalled the promises Gu Jizhou made to her in front of Huo Jinyun, which now seemed like a joke—

”Mom, Huanhuan is pregnant, and the child is mine. I can give up the company, the villa, the wealth. You can disagree, you can skip our wedding, but I just want to be with her. Even if we’re poor and penniless, I’m happy with that!”
