Daddy Always Gets Jealous

She felt his gaze meet hers.

Che Huan quickly looked away, her heartbeat missing a beat.

Che Huan closed her eyes, feeling his strength, as though something in her heart was crumbling away at the fastest pace.

She didn’t know how long had passed when suddenly the doorbell rang.

Huo Jinnan looked at Che Huan, raised his hand, and gently rubbed her cheek with his fingertip before getting out of bed.

Soon, he brought breakfast over, placing it on the bedside table, ”Go wash up.”

Che Huan’s face was blushing, she bit her lip, slipped out of the blankets, put on her slippers, and quickly entered the bathroom.

Standing there for a while, she then leaned over to fill the cup with water.

Suddenly, there was a solid chest behind her.

She looked up, and there was someone behind her.

Huo Jinnan’s chin rested on the top of Che Huan’s head as he spoke in a deep and mesmerizing voice, ”A bit slow.”

Che Huan said nothing, just staring blankly at him in the mirror.

After holding her for a while, Huo Jinnan let go and stood to the side to begin washing up with her.

After washing up and having breakfast, he turned to Che Huan, ”Shall we go out for a walk?”

Che Huan nodded, really wanting to get some fresh air.

The two of them went downstairs together and encountered Gu Jizhou smoking at the hotel entrance.

Seeing Che Huan and Huo Jinnan coming out, his smoking motion paused, his eyes latching onto their tightly held hands like hooks.

Huo Jinnan, holding Che Huan’s hand, stopped in front of Gu Jizhou.

Che Huan, ”...”

She had never expected to encounter him now!

Gu Jizhou looked on for a long time before he painfully shifted his gaze to Huo Jinnan, ”Uncle is going out?”

At that moment, he felt a severe lack of oxygen in his chest, struggling to restrain himself, trying to maintain a calm mood, but it was completely useless!

Huo Jinnan gently caressed Che Huan’s soft fingers with his palm, ”Mhm, the weather is nice, just going for a walk. Care to join?”

”No, I’m waiting for someone.”

”Take your time waiting.”

With that, Huo Jinnan walked toward the black Bentley with Che Huan.

Gu Jizhou stood there, feeling a sharp pain in his chest.

”Haha—”

After a long while, Gu Jizhou finally laughed, convinced that this was just the last bit of lingering affection!

Wen Ru knew all about it, how much longer could they possibly stay together?

Huo Jinnan drove Che Huan to a wetland on the outskirts of Li City.

Hand in hand, the two admired the picturesque landscape.

After a while, Huo Jinnan started taking photos with his camera.

Che Huan sat on the soft sand, watching the clean and clear lake water before her, gazing at his figure reflected in the shimmering lake, her eyes lingering.

After photographing the scenery for a while, Huo Jinnan looked at Che Huan, crouched down, took a few shots, then walked over and sat beside her.

Che Huan turned her head towards Huo Jinnan, ”Although I was born in Li City, this is actually my first time here.”

Huo Jinnan remained silent, his profound eyes clearly reflecting Che Huan’s form.

Che Huan closed her eyes, her cheeks flushed, and she quietly turned her head, resting it on his shoulder.

Huo Jinnan tightened his arms around her waist.

Che Huan thought about the past five years, about her mother.

She couldn’t understand why her mother was so angry.

Could she not start a new life just because she was divorced?

Thinking about the sting of that slap, not at all diminished from the one five years ago—in fact, it was even harsher—her hand involuntarily clenched.

In reality, since her birth, her mother had always been indifferent towards her.

They were never as affectionate as most mothers and daughters; as far back as she could remember, her mother had rarely held her. It was as if there was always something separating them, an obstacle they could never overcome!
