Chapter 421: Chapter 421: Have You Thought It Through?
On the other side, Huo Yanzhao drove to Lishui Pavilion.
Sun Qiuran had been living here recently.
Ever since learning about Xuefei’s pregnancy, his mother had lost interest in Sun Qiuran, so he could co and go here without any obstructions.
He knocked on the door, and soon an elderly auntie opened it for him.
“Mr. Huo, it’s you.” The auntie imdiately bead with a smile, “Please co in.”
Huo Yanzhao entered and, after failing to find anyone in the living room, his inquiring gaze shifted to the auntie.
The auntie pointed towards the bedroom.
Huo Yanzhao imdiately headed to the bedroom and stopped at the door; he was about to knock but then heard Sun Qiuran’s soft voice: “… little brother, you must study diligently. When mom and dad get better, I can co back. Be a good boy.”
Without hesitation, Huo Yanzhao turned the doorknob and entered. Sun Qiuran, startled by the noise, turned around and, upon seeing him, stood up so quickly that the phone in her hand crashed to the floor.
“Huo… Director Huo…” she stuttered, with fear in her eyes and a hint of unspeakable expectation.
Seeing Huo Yanzhao’s silent and steady stare at her belly, his gaze deep and frightening.
Sun Qiuran hurriedly protected her stomach, “What… Why have you co?”
Only then did Huo Yanzhao shift his gaze to her face, and with a smile that was almost gentle, said, “Didn’t you claim the child was mine? Why shouldn’t I co?”
Sun Qiuran shrank back slightly, desperately shaking her head: “No, no, it’s not like that… Director Huo, this child has nothing to do with you!”
She knew no one could protect her now, the man before her could kill her child at any mont! Thus she had to deny any connection between the child and him!
“Oh? Now you’re denying it?” Huo Yanzhao walked towards her, his smile even deed gentle, “Tell , who originally helped you escape, and who let you spout nonsense to Xuefei? If you confess honestly, I will let you keep the child.”
“I…” Sun Qiuran’s expression turned panicked.
“Were you just on the phone with your brother?” Huo Yanzhao’s eyes fell on the mobile phone on the floor, “Speaking of which, I sent soone to find your family yesterday. They’ll probably et your brother very soon.”
Sun Qiuran’s face paled: “What exactly do you want to do? You… My brother knows nothing! Don’t harm him!”
“The one harming him isn’t , but you,” Huo Yanzhao said with a faint smile, “I ca here to ask you yesterday, but you refused to say anything, so I gave you a day to think. Now, have you thought it through?”
Sun Qiuran looked wretched. If she had known yesterday that this man had sent soone to find her family, she would have definitely told them to hide sowhere as soon as possible. But now it was too late, perhaps the person had found her family right when she was on the phone…
“It seems you are a smart person,” Huo Yanzhao genuinely complinted her.
This woman, seemingly weak and inconspicuous, was actually very clear-headed, and her appearance and deanor were exceedingly deceptive. Wasn’t Huo Yanzhao originally fooled into thinking she was no threat, which is why he allowed her to leave easily after that night?
For this, he had paid a very painful price.
So now, he needed to rectify that mistake.
He picked up Sun Qiuran’s mobile phone from the ground and handed it to her: “Why don’t you try calling your brother again?”
