Chapter 420: Chapter 420 Good Stuff for Huo Xingzhou Only Chapter 420: Chapter 420 Good Stuff for Huo Xingzhou Only Huo Xingzhou walked up to her and said, “You’ve also drunk a lot of alcohol? Your face is as red as a monkey’s butt.”
Qiao Xi gestured with her hand, “Just a little.”
“With such a strong sll of alcohol, it wasn’t just a little. You’re just more sensible than them.” Huo Xingzhou took her hand and walked toward the staircase, noticing that she could barely lift her feet on the steps.
In the end, he admitted defeat.
He could only hold her in a full embrace.
Qiao Xi naturally wrapped her arms around his neck, her burning cheeks rubbing against his neck.
Those dicinal liquors had been stored for too long, and their effect was quite strong.
The dicinal liquor made her blood flow faster, a light pink flush spread over her skin, her rationality still intact. But she was bewitched by the alcohol, losing her usual reserve and shyness.
Unable to resist, she lightly bit the man’s neck.
She bit down on a particularly conspicuous red mole.
Her teeth lightly touched his skin, her soft tongue accidentally grazing it.
“Stop ssing around.”
The man’s voice sounded.
His neck was already a sensitive spot, and she rarely did sothing so bold as to flirt with him outright.
Qiao Xi nestled in his arms, her lips curving into a smile.
Huo Xingzhou’s voice was sowhat deep, “What made you think of drinking? They were dead drunk.”
Qiao Xi’s voice was soft, “It was Jiaojiao’s idea to drink and have a barbecue, and Shu Xue joined in too. They weren’t feeling great and ended up getting themselves drunk. It seems like Jiaojiao is in love!”
Because she was ranting about a breakup.
Huo Xingzhou pushed open the master bedroom’s door and placed her in the bathroom, reaching out to unzip her dress.
Qiao Xi felt a cool sensation and covered her essential parts with her hands.
Huo Xingzhou, slling the strong scent of alcohol on her, frowned and took off his own suit jacket, asking, “Who is Jiaojiao in love with?”
“I don’t know, she didn’t tell . She just kept saying that she had a breakup, but I think she and Shen Xuanzhi have an unclear and indescribable relationship.”
Huo Xingzhou pulled her hands away, saying, “Get cleaned up before you flirt with .”
Qiao Xi, seeing his unsurprised look, opened her plump and lustrous lips, “Do you know sothing? There are more and more secrets between us now.”
“Jiaojiao gave Shen Xuanzhi two hundred thousand to clear a debt, and Shen Xuanzhi had solved a problem for her earlier.”
Huo Xingzhou thought he could rember the month he was comatose and had beco almost a vegetable, the grievances suffered by the second wife.
It was only after following Huo Sijiao’s bank statents to Shen Xuanzhi’s connection that he understood everything.
But he hadn’t expected that Huo Beiting could have struck at a young girl earlier, nearly causing a disaster.
If he had known, he should have sent soone to beat him to death.
Qiao Xi nodding blankly, “No wonder I felt she was different around Shen Xuanzhi. She even asked privately about many things related to the Shen Family.”
It turned out to be the beginning of love.
“If Shen Xuanzhi is sensible, he won’t develop a further relationship with her.”
The outco was clear.
Huo Sijiao was frustrated and turned to alcohol to drown her sorrows.
Huo Xingzhou concluded, “They’re not suitable, I don’t want Jiaojiao to beco the next Liu Huimin. She loves too purely, her world is full of him.”
Qiao Xi extended her hand and hugged his waist, saying, “Let’s leave things to fate. Our marriage was also frowned upon by many, as long as Jiaojiao is happy.”
Huo Xingzhou laughed, turning on the shower.
The bathroom, bright as day, filled with steam, he bent down and kissed the corner of her lips, “I have no engagents tonight, and you’re not on your period. According to our agreent, it’s ti for you to fulfill your duty.”
“Huo Xingzhou, I’m drunk.”
“Just stay drunk.”
The bathtub was also full, and water splashed out quite a bit.
…
It was midnight by the ti they ca out of the bathroom.
Qiao Xi’s limbs were weak, and she lay on the sofa as he dried her hair. His fingers weaved through her dark, shiny hair, her head resting on his legs. She could sll the faint scent of shampoo mixed with the subtle cool fragrance on his body.
Drowsy and sleepy.
The alcohol effect had faded, and she humd contentedly like a little cat.
Huo Xingzhou set the hairdryer aside and patted her lower back, “Go sleep in the bed.”
The water light flickered in Qiao Xi’s eyes, “Okay.”
Her tone sounded a bit reluctant.
She walked barefoot on the cashre carpet but was stopped by Huo Xingzhou grabbing her wrist, “Not sleepy? You didn’t stay long in the bathroom, I’m worried you’ll catch a cold. If you still want to…”
Qiao Xi shook her head, “I don’t want to, I’ll go to sleep right away.”
She imdiately got into bed and wrapped herself with the silk blanket.
She looked at him with clear, bright eyes and asked, “Aren’t you coming too?”
“Mr. Zhou ordered so irritant food for dinner. You have to go to the hospital to help tomorrow, are you sure you want to stay?”
His eyes were pitch-dark.
Qiao Xi bit her lip.
No wonder he was so wild in the bathroom tonight. Even though she had drunk so dicinal liquor that aroused her passions, she still couldn’t resist.
Qiao Xi said a bit awkwardly, “Mr. Zhou previously prescribed a kidney-tonic herbal recipe for , and he has been secretly taking nourishing dishes. Given the situation, it’s not mild; it could be quite potent. I’ll have Shu Xue tell him tomorrow…”
Overdoing the nourishnt is not good.
“Don’t order als with Mr. Zhou at the company anymore.”
To avoid having the blood and Qi surge up and needing to cool down after coming ho.
“Okay, I’ll go to the study first.”
“Mhm.”
Huo Xingzhou’s eyes and brows carried a hint of dissatisfaction, and his throat felt sowhat parched. The al Mr. Zhou ordered must have been with extra ingredients and quantity, otherwise a normal dicinal dish wouldn’t have such an effect.
Truly fearless of death.
He turned off the light in the master bedroom, and gently closed the door.
Qiao Xi tossed and turned in bed for half an hour and still couldn’t sleep, having just gotten used to having a man sleeping beside her. Tonight, alone in the room,
she felt an emptiness in her heart.
Buzz buzz.
The screen of the phone on the bedside table lit up and vibrated a few tis.
No longer feeling sleepy, Qiao Xi sat up and grabbed her phone. It was a ssage from Young Master Sun.
The ssage was brief, just three words: Found it.
Upon seeing it, Qiao Xi imdiately made a call.
Young Master Sun answered instantly, “Don’t you practice wellness in Chinese dicine? It’s already midnight, and you’re not sleeping. But I understand, it’s not strange for a loving couple to stay up all night. Don’t keep good things just for Huo Xingzhou.”
His tone still carried a bit of accusation.
Qiao Xi said, “There’s nothing good.”
“So, I heard that old Master Cheng Han left many prescriptions, isn’t there one that can enhance further?”
“Young Master Sun, dicines are three parts poison. What exactly did you find out?” Qiao Xi couldn’t comprehend how Sun Weing’s mind was filled only with things like Complete Tonic Pill, wondering if it was really okay to leave the Sun Family’s real estate business in his hands.
Sun Weing coughed twice, then said seriously, “I found the Lincoln Navigator parked in front of the Haicheng Rui Li Five-Star Hotel, and then the car drove back to your small villa, didn’t go anywhere else.”
“Didn’t go to the hospital?”
“Didn’t go to the hospital, I swear on my life’s happiness,” Sun Weing added, “That hotel is where Lin Xifei stays, since you had a conflict with her, I paid extra attention to her. Also, that illegitimate child from the Imperial Capital is staying there too.”
This morning, Lin Xifei was exposed to a comprehensive ban; she hasn’t left the hotel while the dia has been staking out there to gather firsthand information.
“Little Fairy, it’s the right ti and place. The dia is mixed, and I wasn’t noticed by anyone during my investigation.”
Sun Weing was sowhat proud.
But Qiao Xi was shocked into silence.
The illegitimate child from the Imperial Capital.
Zhong Yi.
He was staying at that hotel.
And he had entered the hospital the day they returned from Moon Village.
The answer was now obvious.
