Chapter 294: 296 Her Life and Death Tribulation (2)_1
Looking at him, he seemed to be reminiscing.
Huo Jinnan’s eyes were dark and intense as he stared at Che Zhiqiang, the chill around him growing heavier.
Che Zhiqiang’s expression changed rapidly, and it took him a while to look towards Huo Jinnan, meeting his gaze and shivering out of the blue.
It was supposed to be a hot summer, but this room felt as cold as an ice cave, raising goosebumps all over one’s body!
Seeing him as if he was afraid of something, Huo Jinnan wasn’t in a hurry, elegantly smoking as he waited for his answer.
Che Zhiqiang sat for a long time, unable to utter a single word.
"Think it over and come find me when you’re ready," Huo Jinnan put out his cigarette, stood up, and cast a profound shadow in front of Che Zhiqiang.
That dark shadow seemed to make it hard for him to breathe!
Che Zhiqiang struggled internally, and with a tremble, he unsteadily stood up and left the guest room with a floating gait.
Huo Jinnan thought about the information he had seen before on Che Huan, that Wen Ru was already seven months pregnant when she married Che Zhiqiang.
He felt there was something subtle about it, and with just a little probing, he soon saw a clue; indeed, there was something going on.
Huo Jinnan needed to know everything that should be made clear; he was not one to enjoy fighting unprepared battles.
Walking to the balcony, he watched the night scene in silence, then drew the curtains, took off his shirt, and headed to the bathroom. Looking at the bathtub, he remembered how Che Huan had helped the gang leader bathe, his thin lips pressed into a tight line as he picked up the showerhead to wash off the loose dog hair clinging to the bathtub.
After showering and coming out, he saw that Che Huan had already returned.
Huo Jinnan sat at the edge of the bed, his voice seeming to come from deep within his belly, "Where’s the gang leader?"
Che Huan glanced at Huo Jinnan. Didn’t he know?
She thought the gang leader was afraid of the little one, but it seemed he was even more afraid of Huo Jinnan, wasn’t he? Otherwise, why would he voluntarily go to room 308!
Huo Jinnan, holding a white towel, dried his hair, "Go take a bath."
Che Huan hummed, stood up, and went into the bathroom with the clothes that needed changing.
When she came out, Huo Jinnan was lying on the bed, tall and slender, his eyes half-closed, with little expression on his face.
She had no idea what her stepfather and he had discussed.
Che Huan watched for a while, walked to the bedside, and when she didn’t see Huo Jinnan open his eyes, she bit her lip. Was she supposed to just lie down on her own initiative? To lie on the same bed with him?
After all, the situation was different from last night.
Che Huan put the clothes she had changed out of to the side, "Do you have any clothes to wash?"
Lazily opening his eyes, Huo Jinnan glanced at Che Huan, "Put your clothes with mine, we’ll send them out to be washed tomorrow morning."
"Oh!"
Che Huan responded, stuffing the clothes into a bag, and when he asked for the ashtray, she took it from the side and walked to the bedside. Just as she was about to hand it to Huo Jinnan, her wrist was suddenly grasped, and at the moment the ashtray was taken from her hand and placed on the cabinet beside the bed, she found herself tumbling into his embrace!
"You..."
Che Huan’s face turned red, looking at the instigator.
"Come up and sleep," Huo Jinnan’s arms encircled Che Huan’s waist.
Che Huan tried to get up, but he held her tightly, not only feeling his warmth but also the subtle changes in his body, her breathing suddenly becoming erratic!
Racking her brain to change the subject, she suddenly felt as if her mental capacity was insufficient, utterly clueless about what to say.
Seeing her biting her lip, Huo Jinnan’s voice, deep and captivating, rang out, "When I get back, I won’t let you go."
"..." Che Huan didn’t make a sound, nor did she dare to look at Huo Jinnan, her cheeks as red as if they had been coated with a thick layer of rouge.
At this moment, she could even hear her own heartbeat, thumping away like a drum!
