Chapter 398: 400 Play with excitement (5)_1
Che Huan looked up at Huo Jinnan, wondering if he understood her too well or if he really could easily see through someone’s thoughts.
Thinking about those two agreements, her gaze became a bit distracted.
"What are you hiding from me?"
Huo Jinnan looked down at Che Huan, his slender fingers gently playing with her hair.
Che Huan shuddered back to awareness and looked at Huo Jinnan, "Am I?"
Huo Jinnan’s gaze rested on her face, "If you say there isn’t, then there isn’t."
He trusted her that much?
Che Huan found it hard to breathe and, struggling to conceal it, she smiled sweetly at Huo Jinnan and leaned into his embrace, feeling a sharp pang in her heart.
The first agreement, she could change the handwriting, but what about the second agreement?
It would require his signature before Qin Mochuan would give her the heart, right?
Or should she tell him and let him just take it by force?
She quickly dismissed the idea as childish.
Since Qin Mochuan and his people made such a request, they must have been fully prepared.
Thinking this, she gently stroked Huo Jinnan’s collar, "Have they found a matching heart?"
Huo Jinnan looked down at her and shook his head gently.
Che Huan bowed her head, biting her lip in an angle he couldn’t see!
As expected, they still hadn’t found one.
Surely, this suitable heart must have taken a long time to find? How did Qin Mochuan and Fang Tong find it?
Could it be the Huo Family?
This thought suddenly pained her—she felt sorry for him, sorry for Auntie Zhong.
After hesitating for a moment, she made a decision, looking up at Huo Jinnan, "My mother wants to see your father."
Huo Jinnan looked down at the face facing him, his fingertips caressing it gently, and after a long while, he spoke softly, "Okay, I’ll arrange it."
Che Huan paused, "My mother means for him to come to the hospital. It’s easier to talk here."
"Hmm."
Huo Jinnan responded, his eyes deepening, "Today?"
Che Huan asked softly, "Is noon okay?"
"Okay."
————Yunqi Academy————
At the agreed time of half-past twelve noon, Huo Qichang arrived at Muhe Hospital.
Upon entering Wen Ru’s ward and seeing Che Huan, he raised his hand to close the door, "Your mother wants to see me?"
Che Huan glanced at her mother’s ward, where her mother would be taking her nap at this time, "No, it’s me who wants to see you."
Hearing Che Huan’s words, Huo Qichang’s tone turned cold, "Are you trying to convince me to agree to you and Anan? If so, you might as well give up that thought."
Che Huan stared at Huo Qichang, asking quietly, "You care about Auntie Zhong, right?"
Mentioning Zhong Qin, Huo Qichang’s composure suddenly collapsed, his expression became distant, as if utterly exhausted.
These past few days, he had looked at the heart Xiaoqin gave her, plagued by nightmares day and night, dreaming of Xiaoqin, Adong, and his unborn child...
Che Huan stared at Huo Qichang, "A matching heart for Auntie Zhong has been found, did you know?"
Hearing this, Huo Qichang snapped back to alertness, grasping at straws as he stared intently at Che Huan, "You want to negotiate with me?"
Che Huan bit her lip, frowning slightly, "You didn’t know?"
Huo Qichang was somewhat perplexed.
Che Huan let out a light laugh, "Someone with a heart that matches Auntie Zhong’s has set conditions for me. They want me to remarry Gu Jizhou and trade the heart with Jinnan for a few project agreements worth billions."
At this, Huo Qichang’s body stiffened, staring at Che Huan for a long while before turning and staggering out of the ward without a word.
