Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy’s Infinite Pampering Chapter 1904 - Huo Ze and Xia Tang (108)

Chapter 1904: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (108)

Huo Heng looked at Xia Cha with his dark eyes that were like spilled ink, making people unable to see what he was thinking.

Xia Cha looked at him walking toward her and she unconsciously tightened her grip on the clothes in her hand.

Very quickly, he stopped in front of her.

He stretched a hand out to her. “Thank you.”

Xia Cha handed him the clothes in her hand. Before she could say anything, he had already turned and entered the bathroom.

When she broke up with him that day, she was still a little worried that he would be like before, pestering her before he got tired of her.

Looking at it now, she was just thinking too much.

Xia Cha lowered her eyes and left the guest room.

Xia Cha went downstairs and sat on the sofa to read.

Hearing sounds coming from the stairs, she looked up.

Huo Heng had come down after changing his clothes. He was wearing Junyuan’s white s.h.i.+rt and ironed black pants. His legs were long and straight, and he exuded a n.o.ble air.

Unlike the wild and unruly Young Master Huo, he was undoubtedly charming.

Xia Cha realized that she had been staring at Huo Heng for a while and hurriedly looked away.

Fortunately, he had not noticed her movements.

Xia Cha’s phone on the coffee table vibrated. She was in a daze and did not notice it.

Huo Heng walked to the sofa and saw the flas.h.i.+ng phone screen.

The caller was Third Master.

He glanced at the girl on the sofa and reminded her with an unreadable expression, “You have a phone call.”

Xia Cha reacted and glanced at her phone.

Seeing Huo Third Master’s call, she pursed her lips. She was about to say something but Huo Heng had already left.

He went to the back garden and leaned his tall body against a tree. He took out a cigarette from his pants pocket and puffed away with his eyes narrowed.

After Xia Cha finished the call, she sat on the sofa for a while.

She turned back when she heard footsteps.

Huo Heng came over.

Huo Heng walked around the sofa and approached her.

There was also a cigarette between his long fingers.

Smelling the smoke, Xia Cha frowned uncomfortably.

Seeing Huo Heng approaching her, Xia Cha got up and leaned toward the coffee table.

The sofa was only a few steps away from the coffee table and Xia Cha’s leg touched it.

“Huo Heng, what are you doing…”

Huo Heng did not speak. He bowed slightly. Xia Cha was about to push him away when she realized that he did not touch her, but bent down and stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray behind her.

Xia Cha thought that she had misunderstood him just now and her fair ears turned red.

“I…”

Before she could finish, she heard him say in a tone that he did not care about, “Please tell your brother and Momo that something cropped up at work and I have to leave first.”

He did not look at her again and turned to leave.

Xia Cha looked at his back and her heart felt like it was gently stabbed by something.

…

In the middle of the night.

Xia Cha felt thirsty and got up to go downstairs to get some water.

She went to the kitchen door and was about to go in when she suddenly heard Xia Mo’s voice.

“Hubby, you actually suspected that I have someone outside? What? I already have you. Who else would I like?”

Junyuan’s gentle voice sounded. “I misunderstood. I apologize.”

“There’s no need to apologize. But I might be busy for a while.”

Xia Cha did not plan to enter the kitchen, in case she disturbed her brother and sister-in-law. She was about to leave quietly when she heard Xia Mo mention Huo Heng’s name. “I don’t want to hide it from you. That year, when he got into an accident, not only was his car tampered with, but someone also put carcinogens in his cigarette.”

Hearing Xia Mo’s words, Xia Cha froze.

Her hands resting by her sides clenched into tight fists unconsciously.

Huo Ze had cancer. Had someone done that to him on purpose?

She thought of how he had answered a call before the accident. She could not hear what the person on the other end of the call had said to him, but his expression hadturned cold at that time. He seemed to have even said, “I don’t believe my family would do such a thing…”

It was obvious that Junyuan was as shocked as Xia Cha was.

Xia Mo wrapped her arms around Junyuan’s neck and leaned her beautiful face against his chest, saying with a slightly choked voice, “Besides, that person might be from the Huo family. Now we only know that person’s left shoulder was stabbed by someone and there might be a scar, but there are many people in the Huo family. It’s not easy to find out whose shoulder was stabbed!”

Naturally, Xia Mo trusted Junyuan by telling him these secrets.

Junyuan hugged Xia Mo. Although he knew that Xia Mo was involved in the Huo family’s matters and might be in danger, she was Huo Heng’s most trusted person. If she didn’t help him, who would?

“Promise me you’ll be careful.”

…

Xia Cha returned to her room and lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

The conversation between Xia Mo and Junyuan kept appearing in her mind.

She had never thought that the Huo family had the intention to let Huo Ze have cancer!

Who would be so cruel?

She remembered that Huo Heng had achieved quite a lot in his career. Was it because he had threatened someone’s status?

Xia Cha thought of Huo Heng’s thin face, sunken eyes, and pale face after his illness. She suddenly felt sad.

She had already felt this feeling when he left in the afternoon.

When she was still Xia Tang, she had never been like this. Even when she learned that he had late-stage cancer, she had only felt pity.

She had had no memories for the past four years and he had really captured her heart.

Xia Cha pulled the blanket over her head and fell asleep amidst her messy thoughts.

…

When Xia Cha returned to Harbor City, Sister Jin came to pick her up.

When they arrived at the district, Sister Jin handed Xia Cha an exquisite bag. “There’s a banquet the day after tomorrow. You can go with Third Master.”

Xia Cha saw that the bag contained a gown and jewelry.

Xia Cha did not agree or refuse. She took the bag.

Before Xia Cha got out of the car, Sister Jin said earnestly, “Cha Cha, Third Master is good to you. He only has you in his heart. It’s been so many years. It’s time for you to give him some response.”

“Did Third Master ask you to say this?”

“No, why would Third Master force you to do anything? All these years, he has been living with this yearning. His sincerity is really touching.”

Xia Cha smiled but did not say anything. She pushed open the door and got out of the car.

…

The next day, Xia Cha woke up before dawn.

After was.h.i.+ng up, she carried the bag Sister Jin had given her yesterday and left the apartment.

Xia Cha took a taxi to a villa.

There was only one guard in front of the villa. The last time Xia Cha had been here, the guard had recognized Xia Cha. “Did Miss Xia come to look for Third Master?”

Xia Cha smiled. “Yes, is Third Master here?”

“Yes.”

The guard wanted to inform Third Master, but Xia Cha smiled at him again. “I want to give Third Master a surprise.”

Xia Cha’s eyes were beautiful. They were pure and moving and as black as beads, making people’s hearts flutter when they saw them.

The guard thought that it was no wonder the Third Master had asked her to come to his villa. This girl was too beautiful.

She was simply stunning.

The guard did not inform Huo Third Master and let Xia Cha enter the villa.

Xia Cha had been with Huo Third Master for many years. Although they were not a couple, she had some understanding of his personality and habits.

He had the habit of having a morning swim every day.

There was a pool in the backyard of the villa. When Xia Cha went over, she saw a slender figure swimming inside.

Xia Cha carried the bag and stood by the pool.

When Huo Third Master saw Xia Cha, a trace of surprise appeared in his deep eyes.

“Cha Cha?”

Xia Cha smiled. “Third Master, I’m sorry to disturb you.”

Huo Third Master got up from the pool and saw Xia Cha standing by the daybed with a towel and a bathrobe. He wiped the water droplets from his face and walked over.

Seeing him walk over, Xia Cha moved to the side.

When Huo Third Master wiped himself with a towel, she glanced at his left shoulder from the corner of her eye.

This glance froze her.

She felt as though her blood stopped flowing.

She saw that there was a small scar on his left shoulder.

It must have been left after being stabbed by a knife.

Xia Cha unconsciously clenched the bag in her hand.

She came today just to take the opportunity to take a look. She never thought that Huo Third Master’s shoulder would be injured.

After all, in her heart, Huo Third Master was not someone who would harm his own nephew.

Xia Cha’s mind was a little dazed. Fortunately, she was from the entertainment industry and was good at hiding her emotions.

Her hands and feet were cold and her heart were fl.u.s.tered, but her expression was calm.

Huo Third Master had already worn a bathrobe. He looked at Xia Cha, who had a faint smile on her lips. His gaze was gentle. “Cha Cha, why are you here so early? Have you had breakfast?”

Xia Cha looked at Huo Third Master’s handsome face and his warm and deep eyes. She could not believe that he was such a crazy person!

Xia Cha continued to smile on her face. “Last night, Sister Jin gave me an expensive gown and jewelry and asked me to attend a banquet with Third Master. There are some thing I can’t say in front of Sister Jin, so I came to find Third Master early in the morning.”

Huo Third Master looked at Xia Cha, his eyes filled with affection. “Cha Cha, it’s been so many years, but I still only have you in my heart. Although our age gap is not small now, I will cherish you more and give you the best.”

“Third Master, I know about your feelings for me, but feelings can’t be forced. I only have respect and grat.i.tude for you. I believe that you can find someone better than me.”

Xia Cha placed the bag in her hand on the daybed. “I’m sorry to disturb you.”

Xia Cha was about to leave when Huo Third Master grabbed her slender wrist the next second.

He tightened his grip and looked at her with an indescribable gaze. “Is it because of… Huo Heng?”

Hearing him mention Huo Heng’s name, Xia Cha’s heart skipped a beat.

When Huo Heng was still the young master of the Huo family, he had already been plotted against. Now that he was only a young master from the Huo family’s branch family, it would not be not easy for Huo Third Master to deal with him.

Xia Cha looked back at Huo Third Master’s deep eyes, a sneer appearing on her lips. “How is that possible? I have nothing to do with Huo Heng anymore. I… only have disgust toward him!”

Xia Cha did not notice that Huo Heng, whom they had mentioned, was walking toward the swimming pool.
