Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Che Huan glanced at the bed and paused as she caught sight of those photographs, then looked up at Huo Jinnan.

Huo Jinnan gripped her chin, forcing her to face him.

Che Huan looked at him and took a deep breath. How did Jinxue get her hands on Gu Jizhou’s photos? And in a detention center, no less—he clearly suffered a great deal in those pictures!

Where did Jinxue put those photos? She hadn’t seen them, but he had!

Come to think of it, wasn’t Jinxue clearly trying to test her?

She could feel it. Ever since Huo Jinyun made a scene at the hospital, revealing her past marriage to Gu Jizhou, Jinxue’s gaze toward her changed.

She could understand, yet it was obvious that someone was using Jinxue as a pawn.

Was it because of this that he and mom were so angry?

Huo Jinnan’s eyes, dark and intense, rested on Che Huan.

Che Huan clung to Huo Jinnan and after looking at him for a while, she cracked a smile, ”Are you testing me as well?”

”Isn’t it what you wanted to know?” Huo Jinnan retorted before attempting to kiss her.

Che Huan obstinately turned her head away.

Huo Jinnan turned her face back toward him, ”Getting temperamental?”

”I wouldn’t dare,” responded Che Huan with a smile, yet she couldn’t shake off the nagging worry about who actually gave those photos to Jinxue.

”What are you thinking about? Hmm~”

Huo Jinnan turned her face back to his, kissing her fiercely without waiting for a response, while his other hand grabbed the photographs and tossed them all into the trash can.

...........................

The next day, as Che Huan and Huo Jinnan were coming downstairs, Uncle Lu approached, ”Sir, Assistant Ji has been waiting at the door for quite some time.”

Che Huan looked at Huo Jinnan. So that meant the call that woke them up was from Ji Yan? He had made someone wait outside for nearly an hour?

Huo Jinnan said to Uncle Lu, ”Let him in.”

Uncle Lu responded and moved to the door, opening it, ”Assistant Ji, please come in.”

Ji Yan stepped inside, glanced at Huo Jinnan, and thought how this President Huo seemed not to be fond of his father-in-law, but what did that have to do with him? To have him waiting outside for an hour! Truly, when a city gate is on fire, the fish in the moat suffer—such innocence!

However, considering it further, he too found President Qin unlikable—for someone so inconsiderate toward his employees, oblivious to rewarding them more generously for their hard work.

Huo Jinnan looked at Ji Yan, ”What is it?”

Ji Yan remembered the urgent matter, ”President Huo, here are several properties President Qin selected for me to bring over. He wants the madam to take a look and pick two or three she likes.”

Huo Jinnan’s gaze fell on Ji Yan.

Ji Yan inexplicably felt his clothes seemed too thin, as if a chill was setting in!

Looking at Huo Jinnan again, he found Huo Jinnan’s gaze as if it could flay a person alive. Could it be that he has heard what President Qin said when he asked him to deliver the properties?

——”Ji Yan, take it there.”

——”President Qin, it seems President Huo is not short on properties.”

——”My daughter, needing to rely on a man?”

——”...” [What kind of logic is that?]

——”No matter who she marries, I will not let her suffer in the slightest. With her own career and her own house, if someday he treats my daughter poorly, she won’t have to put up with it and can throw the assets in his face and kick him out.”

——”...” [Which eye of yours saw the Miss suffer even a bit?]

If President Huo heard President Qin’s last remark—

Ji Yan shivered, heh, he won’t say anything, President Qin won’t say anything, and President Huo will never know!
