Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Just then, she heard the sound of a cane tapping on the floor.

She looked up and saw Grandpa standing up, silently returning to his room, and noticed that her father’s expression was also quite abnormal.

Huo Jinxue pulled Huo Jinbei up the stairs, ”Big bro, why do I feel something is off? It seems like they all know about Che Huan?”

”If you’re asking me, who am I supposed to ask? Go and ask Second Brother yourself.”

”I wouldn’t dare.”

Huo Jinxue lay on the bed and wriggled around, pondering for a long time without figuring it out. She then turned her head to look at Huo Jinbei, ”Mom didn’t come back today, and Dad even asked me to make a phone call. I didn’t notice it before, but now I’m feeling more and more that something’s wrong. Mom seems to be very cold to Dad, and Dad always looks like he’s trying to please her. Could it be that Dad has another woman outside?”

”Don’t think nonsense!”

Huo Jinbei scolded lightly, thinking about Gu Jizhou’s reaction earlier, as well as the big sister’s words. He couldn’t help but suspect that Che Huan might be involved with Gu Jizhou. Could it be that Second Brother and Gu Jizhou had fallen for the same woman?

No, what was the deal with Xiaowei?

It was too complicated, and after thinking it over for a while without understanding, he couldn’t help but mutter inwardly: What a brain-burner! Second Brother, can’t you make your words clearer? Every time you speak, it feels like a brain cell massacre.

Seeing Huo Jinxue’s confused face, he rubbed her head, thinking it was okay to be a bit slow.

Back at Nanyuan Villa, the little one looked at Huo Jinnan sitting on the sofa smoking and couldn’t help walking over to comfort him, ”It’s okay, their opinions don’t matter. After all, no matter when, I will always be on your side.”

Huo Jinnan glanced at the little one.

The little one sat upright next to him, speaking in a mature tone, ”Don’t punish yourself for someone else’s mistakes.”

Huo Jinnan’s gaze rested on the little one, ”Go back to your room and rest, I’ve got to step out for a bit.”

The little one hopped off the sofa, ”Oh, then come back early. Don’t do anything foolish.”

Huo Jinnan stood up, picked up the car keys, and left.

Half an hour later, he arrived at Qin Shaojin’s place, ”Is it almost done?”

Qin Shaojin handed all the collected materials for Huo Jinnan to review, ”Huo, take a look.”

Huo Jinnan picked them up and flipped through casually, glancing over a few pages, ”Hmm, this should be good. This case must be ironclad.”

Qin Shaojin smirked, his demeanor calm and composed, ”Naturally, it’s ironclad. But as for the pressure from your grandfather’s side, you’ll need to stand firm, Huo.”

Huo Jinnan hummed in response, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then picked up his phone to call Che Huan.

Once connected, hearing her voice, he spoke softly, ”Meet me in Li City tomorrow night.”

Having nearly finished his business here, the next evening, Huo Jinnan drove to Li City as usual, not bringing Huo Bei with him.

By the time he arrived at the hotel, it was already past eleven at night.

Che Huan had been waiting for a long time, and not seeing him show up, she had already fallen asleep on the sofa.

Huo Jinnan entered, walked over to her, looked down at the sleeping Che Huan, his deep eyes clearly reflecting her image, leaned over to lift Che Huan, another arm gathering her seaweed-like hair and draping it over his muscular arm, placed Che Huan on the bed, and silently watched her.

The light fell on her fair cheeks, revealing a faint blush.

Feeling the man’s warm breath entirely on her ear, Che Huan trembled slightly, her hand suddenly grabbing Huo Jinnan’s wrist, her fingertips trembling lightly. In a moment, her face was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
