Chapter 518 - 518: 518, Huo Jingshen is my man!
Chapter 518: 518, Huo Jingshen is my man!
“I had to explain, ‘This time I returned to the United Kingdom because Xihan was shot and wounded severely. The situation there is unstable, not too safe, so Fu Qi returned to China with me.”
“What do you mean?”
“For a while, Fu Qi will stay in Nancheng.” Seeing Su Wanwan about to explode, Huo Jingshen quickly added, “She and Ziyang will be staying in the neighboring villa, they won’t disturb us.”
Su Wanwan pouted.
She wasn’t an unreasonable person, and with his explanation, she felt a little bit better.
But…
Thinking back about yesterday’s incident, she couldn’t help but start accusing him, “I went to the airport to pick you up, waited for you for two whole hours. I tried calling, but couldn’t get through. Finally, when I did, Fu Qi said you were taking a shower.”
Huo Jingshen squinted his eyes, “She lied to you.”
“Why did she lie to me?”
Huo Jingshen, “…”
“And she said you two had no relationship! Liar! A master of lies!” Su Wanwan screamed.
If Fu Qi wasn’t interested in him, why would she say these ambiguous things to deceive her?
Deliberately letting her misunderstand?
And…
“Why would she have your phone?”
Huo Jingshen brooded with a sullen face, “I’ll call now, and you can ask her directly.”
Finished speaking, he reached out for the phone on the bedside table, dialed the number, and turned on the speakerphone.
Soon, Fu Qi’s sweet voice came through the phone, “Brother Jingshen, did you need something?”
Before Huo Jingshen could speak, Su Wanwan suddenly leaned in and shouted, “You little slut, listen up. Huo Jingshen is my man! Dare to covet my man, and I’ll make sure you beg for life but wish for death!”
Fu Qi: “…”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
I guess I can’t really rely on this girl to communicate properly.
After a while, Fu Qi’s voice came, “Sister-in-law, I was wrong. Don’t do this. I got scared too. I was just worried you had urgent matters with Brother Jingshen…”
“Bullshit!” Su Wanwan interrupted her. Before she got to say more, Huo Jingshen impatiently hung up the phone.
**
Fu Qi held her phone listening to the “beep beep” sound for a long time before setting down her device.
Then she sighed softly.
“Knock knock knock,” The door to her room was knocked.
Fu Qi got up and went to open the door.
“Auntie, Auntie Han asked me to come up and get you for lunch.” Fu Ziyang was standing adorably at the door.
“I don’t feel like eating. You go ahead.”
“Oh.” Fu Ziyang blinked his eyes but did not leave, “Auntie, why can’t I get through to my dad’s phone?”
“Your dad is busy with something. He will come to China to see you soon.” Remembering Huo Jingshen’s instructions, Fu Qi didn’t dare to speak carelessly.
Who knew…
“You said yesterday that my dad was in the hospital.”
Fu Qi was taken aback, “Did I?”
Fu Ziyang nodded firmly, “Auntie, if you don’t tell me the truth, I will go back to the UK by myself.”
With that, he turned and ran.
“Ziyang.” Fu Qi quickly grabbed his small body, “Why are you such a disobedient boy, what did Uncle Huo tell you?”
Fu Ziyang looked at her, “Then you tell me, what exactly happened to my dad?”
“Your dad is…”
Fu Ziyang turned and walked away.
Fu Qi was about to reach out and grab him, but on second thought, she withdrew her hand.
She went back to the room, picked up her cell phone and dialed a number.
The phone rang for quite a while before it was answered.
Fu Qi immediately said, “Brother Jingshen, what should I do, Ziyang is throwing a temper tantrum, saying he wants to go back to UK, you should hurry over and persuade him, I can’t calm him down.”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
**
Putting down his phone in the bedroom on the second floor of the villa, Huo Jingshen expressionlessly stared at Su Wanwan.
His long, dark, narrow eyes narrowed slightly, giving off a serious vibe, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.
Su Wanwan was not afraid at all, “What?”
Huo Jingshen changed his mind at the last moment, “Are you hungry?”
Su Wanwan was taken aback, she hadn’t expected him to suddenly ask this question.
Immediately she said, “I’m not hungry!”
As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach made a “gurgle” sound.
Su Wanwan coughed.
Damnit!
So undignified!
Huo Jingshen said, “Go freshen up first, then come downstairs to eat.”
Having said that, he glanced doubtfully at the duvet covering her legs, “Do you need your husband’s help?”
“No need!” Su Wanwan turned and tried to get out of bed, but…
“Hiss!”
Just as she straightened her back, she felt her legs go weak, and in an instant, she almost fell onto the carpet.
Thankfully, Huo Jingshen was quick to catch her. As his dark eyes looked down, he saw her in such a pitiful state.
“Sit properly.”
After he had placed the young girl back in her seat, he stood up and strode towards the wardrobe.
He quickly returned with a set of clothes, which he immediately started to put on her.
Su Wanwan didn’t resist anymore, letting him dress her, even helping with her pants and top. She didn’t know where he found a hair tie, but he used it to bind up her long, curly hair. “Off you go.”
Su Wanwan pouted, as if she were being playful, “My legs hurt.”
Huo Jingshen raised an eyebrow.
So what?
“It’s all your fault, so you have to take care of me today!” Su Wanwan glared at him, then opened her arms wide.
She obviously wanted to be carried.
A hint of amusement flashed quickly in Huo Jingshen’s eyes. He curled his lips into a smile, bent down, and soon he had easily picked up the young girl.
Only then did Su Wanwan give a couple of satisfied hums.
After he had helped her wash up, he said, “I’m going downstairs for a while, come and eat later.”
“Okay.”
After Huo Jingshen left, Su Wanwan dragged her feeble legs towards the sofa to sit down.
A glance at the time showed it was almost midday.
Had she wasted away these two days of winter break?
What a waste.
And she didn’t believe she had acted so abnormal the day before.
No matter what, this stinky man surely took advantage of her while she wasn’t conscious and lied that he was tired when he was full of energy!
On the contrary, she was the one who felt like an invalid…
Realizing that she wouldn’t have classes for the next month because of the holiday, wouldn’t he be even more unscrupulous?
No!
Su Wanwan quickly took out her phone and dialed Zhao Qianqian’s number.
“Wanwan, what’s up?”
“What’s the update on the internship?”
“Teacher Di is busy with something these days. He said that once he’s free, he will take us to the TV station for orientation.”
“Who else got the internship?” Su Wanwan asked.
“Jian Shuhao.”
“What?”
“Is there a problem?”
“No problem.”
She knew she was already married, and Jian Shuhao was not the irrational type.
After exchanging a few words with Zhao Qianqian, Su Wanwan hung up the phone.
She looked at the time and decided to stagger downstairs.
However, the moment she arrived downstairs, she saw two figures, one big and one small, sitting on the living room sofa.
One of them was…
Fu Qi!
Compared to a few months ago, Fu Qi hadn’t changed much. She still looked sweet and obedient. However, after recalling the incident on the phone the previous day, Su Wanwan was not in the mood to give her a pleasant look.
“Why are you here?”
Su Wanwan’s hostile attitude made Fu Qi nervous.
Fu Qi clenched her fists, about to respond, when Huo Jingshen came out of the kitchen carrying a tray.
“Little sister-in-law.” Fu Qi stood up, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have answered Brother Jingshen’s phone.”
Su Wanwan looked at her coldly, assuming a mature stance as she scolded her, “Do you know what your actions yesterday meant?”
“What?” Fu Qi was confused.
Su Wanwan said, “I’ve told you before that no matter how well you knew my husband, or how familiar and understanding you were with him, he is now married, a taken man. If you still yearn for someone else’s husband, try to interfere in their marriage, or even attempt to cause trouble, you are being a homewrecker! Do you understand what a homewrecker is? If you don’t, look it up online, and consider the miserable outcomes experienced by such women as a warning!”
Fu Qi’s sweet face turned pale bit by bit, her lips trembling slightly.
She knew Su Wanwan was tough, but she had not expected that she would scold her right in front of Brother Jingshen.
And, Brother Jingshen didn’t stop her…
Su Wanwan continued, “I don’t want yesterday’s incident to happen again. If it does, you won’t be welcome in this house!”
Fu Qi didn’t respond. She bit her lip, looking pitiful as she held back tears.
Finally, Huo Jingshen spoke up, but what he said was…
“Fu Qi, did you hear what your sister-in-law said?”
Fu Qi: “…”
She lowered her head, and after a while, managed to squeeze out three words, “I heard.”
Su Wanwan continued to gaze at her with her beautiful phoenix eyes, direct and piercing, until…
“Baby, come and eat.”
Although Su Wanwan was still a bit dissatisfied, she wanted to walk over. Suddenly, she pinched her throat to speak in a coquettish tone, “Husband, I can’t walk.”
Huo Jingshen glanced at her.
Su Wanwan widened her innocent eyes and once again spread her arms wide… seeking to be carried again!
