447 eting of Father and Son
Ninth Master Lu was wearing sunglasses and holding a cigarette in his mouth. He sat on a chair in the reception area. Beside him were two henchn who looked around sharply.
The secretary returned to the front desk and walked up to Ninth Master Lu. He said apologetically, “Mr. Lu, I’m very sorry. The CEO doesn’t have ti to see you. You should go back.”
Ninth Master Lu’s eagle eyes under his sunglasses narrowed slightly. Although he had expected Huo Xiaoran to be distant and cold to him, his heart still ached for so reason.
Then, he laughed at himself. It was just a small matter. Was it worth his heartache?
“If he doesn’t co to see , I’ll go see him.” Ninth Master Lu rushed in.
The secretary stopped him. “Mr. Lu, please don’t make things difficult for us. If you continue to barge in like this, I can only call for the bodyguards.”
Ninth Master Lu waved at the person behind him. “Stop him.”
The two lackeys imdiately stopped the secretary. The secretary was helpless and shouted, “Where are the bodyguards? Kick them out.”
Just like that, the two sides fought.
Ninth Master Lu looked at the bodyguard Huo Xiaoran had nurtured and couldn’t help but reveal a gratified expression. “You’re not bad.”
The secretary said proudly, “Of course. My CEO is a martial arts genius. How can soone he likes be bad?”
The two sides fought fiercely for a long ti, but there was no winner. Seeing this, Ninth Master Lu could only intervene.
He walked over leisurely. He only feigned a few tis and attacked a few more tis before the bodyguards of the Angel Group fell to the ground.
The secretary was stunned.
Ninth Master Lu left with his bodyguards.
The secretary ca back to his senses and quickly chased after them.
“Mr. Lu, you can’t go up. The CEO will be angry.”
When Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An heard the commotion from the elevator, their expressions darkened. His cheap father must have barged his way up.
In an instant, the office door was kicked open.
Ninth Master Lu walked in with a smile. “Son, Daddy is here to see you.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at the man in front of him and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. He suddenly understood. Wasn’t this the kidnapper who abducted Qiao An a few days ago and escaped from him?
Huo Xiaoran’s expression instantly turned ugly.
If the kidnapper was an ordinary kidnapper, perhaps he would still be a little benevolent to this man. However, he knew that these kidnappers were involved in a ruthless business. He was imdiately very angry at Ninth Master Lu’s appearance.
“I don’t have a father,” he said through gritted teeth.
“What nonsense are you talking about? You didn’t jump out of a rock.” Ninth Master Lu found a seat and sat down comfortably.
Then, he glanced at Qiao An beside Xiaoran and instructed arrogantly, “Miss, make
a cup of tea.”
Qiao An fell into shock and couldn’t recover for a long ti. She had seen Xiaoran’s father a few tis, but he gave her the feeling that he was a ferocious and unscrupulous thug one mont, a wise and deep falcon the next, and now he was an old ruffian.
Qiao An was almost overco by his acting.
She shifted her feet and prepared to make him tea.
Huo Xiaoran suddenly grabbed her hand and stopped her coldly. “Don’t worry about him. He’s not worthy of drinking your tea.”
Qiao An looked at the angry Xiao Ran and felt bitter. One of them rembered the deep hatred of his mother waiting in vain, and the other was tornted by a heavy fatherly love. They could not acknowledge each other and did not dare to.
Qiao An thought that as his daughter-in-law, she should toast her father-in-law with a cup of tea. It could be considered filial piety.
She gave Xiaoran a gentle look and said gently, “Brother Xiaoran, he’s a guest. It’s not too late to give him a cup of tea and send him away.”
Huo Xiaoran had always listened to his wife, so he went with her suggestion.
Qiao An entered the pantry, took out a pen with water-soluble ink, and wrote on the bottom of the cup. Then she poured the water. She closed the lid and walked out.
She walked up to Ninth Master Lu and glared at him angrily. “I know you. You’re the kidnapper who kidnapped
last ti. Drink this and get lost. If you dare to co and find trouble with us again, I’ll call the police.”
Ninth Master Lu took the tea and said with a smile, “Girl, you’re mistaken, right? Calling the police to arrest ? Do you have evidence? If not, I’ll sue you for slander, okay?”
Huo Xiaoran spat at him. “Scoundrel.”
Ninth Master Lu ignored Huo Xiaoran and opened the tea lid to blow away the dense tea leaves. When he saw the golden words below, he calmly gulped down the tea.
Strangely, the words quickly disappeared.
Ninth Master Lu finished his water and handed the teacup to Qiao An. “Yes, not bad.”
Qiao An didn’t know if he was praising the tea leaves or answering her question.
When she took the teacup, a small fry suddenly walked over solicitously. “Sister, how can I have the cheek to trouble you again and again? I’ll wash it.”
Qiao An handed him the teacup. However, she was puzzled. This person hadn’t been too attentive, right?
This was until Qiao An saw him studying the teacup. Qiao An’s heart skipped a beat as she roughly understood his intentions.
Was he monitoring Ninth Master Lu?
Huo Xiaoran chased them out angrily. “Get lost after drinking the tea. You’re not welco here.”
His aura was terrifying.
Ninth Master Lu used the cover of his sunglasses to quietly observe Huo Xiaoran. At that mont, there were thousands of gentleness hidden in his eyes, but in the end, they were destroyed by the evil smile on his lips.
“Don’t be so heartless. Xiaoran, I’m your father. Your biological father. I know that I didn’t give you and your mother a stable life a few years ago. It’s all my fault. Now that I’m rich, Dad will co back and acknowledge you. I can give you a lot of money.” With that, he took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Huo Xiaoran.
That card was given to him by Nighthawk.
If Huo Xiaoran accepted his gift, Huo Xiaoran’s whereabouts would be exposed as long as he used this card to withdraw money.
Ninth Master Lu did not want Huo Xiaoran to accept this card from the bottom of his heart. However, how many people could reject such temptation?
“Get lost with your stinking money. I don’t need your charity.” Huo Xiaoran flew into a rage.
Ninth Master Lu secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
“There’s… a lot of money inside. Xiaoran, aren’t you going to take a look? Perhaps this money can alleviate the crisis of your company or feed you for several lifetis?”
Huo Xiaoran threw the card into the antimagnetic water and glared at the man gloatingly. “My company doesn’t lack money. I only live for a lifeti. What’s the use of giving
a few lifetis’ worth of money?”
Ninth Master Lu was shocked by his unyielding spirit. He suddenly laughed out loud. “Xiaoran, Daddy likes your unyielding personality. You’re like Daddy when he was young.”
“I’m not like you,” he corrected through gritted teeth.
