Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Huo Jinxue came out and took a glance at Che Huan, in the old house everyone was protecting Gu Jizhou and his son, and here, her second brother and mother were protecting this woman!

No matter where she was, she always felt superfluous.

A wave of sourness rose in her heart as she quickly ascended the stairs.

Che Huan had intended to talk with Jinxue, but seeing her current mood and state, she feared that she wouldn’t be able to judge many things rationally.

After sitting for a while, she returned to the bedroom and saw Huo Jinnan standing on the balcony, smoking, looking out the window.

She walked over, wrapped her arms around his waist, and leaned her face against his back.

Huo Jinnan paused, extinguished his cigarette, ”She didn’t talk back to you, did she?”

”No.”

Che Huan’s voice was very soft as she tightened her arms around his waist.

”Did you eat the meal prepared by Aunt Rong already?”

”I did.”

”You have anemia; you need to pay attention to nutrition.”

Huo Jinnan pulled Che Huan’s hands, turned around, and, gazing down at her, scooped her into his embrace.

Che Huan looked up and smiled at Huo Jinnan.

Huo Jinnan carried her across his arms and strode into the bedroom.

Che Huan hooked her arms around his neck, ”Jinnan, there are many things that Jinxue doesn’t know about, so it’s not entirely her fault.”

Huo Jinnan didn’t speak. If it was just that, he really couldn’t blame her, but—

After glancing at Che Huan, he didn’t continue speaking, bowed his head, and sealed her lips with a kiss...

One week later

Qin Shaojin looked at Huo Jinnan, ”Brother Huo, these cases are coming down to one case in the end: attempted murder. That should be the settled conclusion.”

Huo Jinnan was silent. Yes, that’s right. Now that Che Huan is safe and sound, no matter who the mastermind is, sentencing would be lenient.

Qin Mochuan turned out to be more cunning and shrewd than he had imagined. After being arrested, he actively confessed to the crime, provided clues, behaved well, and pushed all the blame onto Huo Jinyun. There was the call history and the agreement from last time as evidence. The tracking device inside Che Huan was military-grade from Winter City—

All evidence pointed to Huo Jinyun, while Qin Mochuan could only be an accessory to the crime, facing at most ten years of imprisonment.

After lighting a cigarette, he looked at Qin Shaojin, ”Do your family’s elders plan to intervene in this matter?”

Qin Shaojin shook his head, ”It’s strange, they just asked me a few questions. They probably know there won’t be a death sentence, so it seems they don’t intend to get involved.”

Huo Jinnan didn’t speak again. He had already received definite news that Huo Jinyun’s brain cells were damaged, and she had lost the ability to think. Even if Qin Mochuan shoved all the blame onto her, she couldn’t possibly jump up to defend herself, and her motive for the crime was too obvious. It could only be this way.

He lit a cigarette and took a puff, then looked at Qin Shaojin, ”If you don’t feel sorry for your Third Uncle, you might as well let him squat a few more years inside. You and Shaonan should completely remove his influence from the Qin Family. After seven or eight years, even if he comes out, he would have to rely on the Qin Family. If he’s smart, he won’t stir up any trouble. If he dares to cause a ruckus, by that time, there will not be another Huo Jinyun to take the fall for him.”

Qin Shaojin took a sip of his coffee, ”Then we’ll do it that way, but it lets Huo Jinyun off too easily.”

Huo Jinnan flicked away some ash, ”The public trial the day after tomorrow?”

Qin Shaojin hummed in agreement, ”The last chain-reaction crash case had a bad influence, and we definitely need to give society an explanation, put on a show. The case will be closed with that one to the public.”

Huo Jinnan gave a grunt of acknowledgement. Because it was a public trial, he didn’t want to involve Che Huan and her son. ”That’s it, then.”

Monday, the public trial for the chain-reaction crash case.

As Huo Jinnan, Che Huan, and Zhong Qin arrived at the entrance of the court, they saw the old man’s car.
