Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Wen Ru became anxious, ”Anan, what’s wrong?”

Huo Jinnan thought about how Wen Ru’s mood wasn’t good either, and if she knew about Huanhuan’s condition, she might—

Considering the possibility of amputation, he spoke in a low voice, ”Mom, we went out for a while and walked for a bit, she’s a bit tired.”

”Oh.”

Wen Ru responded, thinking about what she wanted to say to Huanhuan, but she simply couldn’t bring herself to say it to Huo Jinnan, ”Then you drive carefully.”

Huo Jinnan said a ”Okay,” waited for Wen Ru to hang up the phone, put out his cigarette, and sped up the car.

Upon arriving at Hong Kong Gold Mall, he parked the car, took the elevator directly to the sixth floor from the underground garage, glanced around, and wasn’t sure which movie Qin Huan was watching in which theater.

He picked up his phone and called Uncle Lu, who quickly arrived, ”Sir, I don’t know what movie the madam is watching.”

Huo Jinnan stood there, lit a cigarette, and spoke with a throaty, smoky voice, ”Let’s not have similar incidents happen again.”

”Understood, sir.” Uncle Lu noted the unease on his master’s face, wondering if something had happened, aside from the madam simply watching a movie?

Huo Jinnan glanced at Uncle Lu, averted his gaze, and stood there dialing Wen Nuan’s number, but no one picked up.

Knowing that the theater would be too noisy to hear a phone ring, he took a drag on his cigarette and looked at Uncle Lu, thinking she had said she would go watch a movie with Wen Nuan another day, but he hadn’t expected it to be today.

Thinking that she was wholly unsuited for this kind of poorly ventilated environment, Huo Jinnan spoke in a cold voice, ”Get in touch, check the surveillance footage, and see which theater they went into.”

”...”

Such a big fuss?

Uncle Lu glanced at his master and, realizing the seriousness of the situation, quickly contacted the mall’s management.

Half an hour later, through video surveillance, they saw Wen Nuan and Qin Huan enter Theater No. 2 to watch a 3D movie.

Since the tickets were bought on-site and weren’t registered under a name, it was impossible to confirm their exact seats. Huo Jinnan and Uncle Lu entered the theater and began searching seat by seat, row after row.

From the first to the third row, they still hadn’t seen them.

Huo Jinnan looked at Uncle Lu, still searching in the previous row, ”Uncle Lu, ask the staff to turn on the lights.”

Uncle Lu responded with a ”Yes” and went to find a staff member quickly.

In less than five minutes, all the lights in the theater were turned on.

Huo Jinnan stood to one side, swept his gaze over the whole place, and quickly spotted Qin Huan sitting in the back, leaning on the seat, eyes closed.

His gaze and breathing instantly tightened!

He strode to the back, reached that row, picked up Qin Huan, and looked at Uncle Lu who had followed, ”Go and bring the car around, wait for me at the mall entrance.”

Uncle Lu responded and quickly left.

Wen Nuan sat nearby, bewildered as to what was going on, ”Brother-in-law?”

Huo Jinnan ignored Wen Nuan, holding Qin Huan and walking quickly towards the exit of the theater.

Qin Huan woke up, looked at Huo Jinnan, glanced around to understand the situation, and her face instantly turned red, ”Jinnan!”

When Huo Jinnan heard Qin Huan’s voice, he stopped, looking at her.

Qin Huan looked at Huo Jinnan, saw his pale face, and spoke softly, ”I’m okay.”

Huo Jinnan was silent, gazed at her for a while, and still carried her out of the theater.

Qin Huan kept looking at him, suddenly realizing why he had spoken that way the other day. Earlier in the theater, as she watched the screen, her vision had gradually become more blurred until she wanted to call out to Wen Nuan but hadn’t been able to speak before losing consciousness.
