Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering
Chapter 1918: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (122)Xia Cha’s eyes lost focus.
Not wanting to let others see that something was wrong, she quickly adjusted her mood.
Seeing Huo Heng looking at her, she nodded at him.
He must have brought his girlfriend to her orchard to pick fruits. She heard that Auntie Jian liked the fruits in his orchard very much. Xia Cha originally wanted to go to Yan City to send a case of fruits to Auntie Jian when she left.
After Xia Cha nodded at him, she continued to put on his earphones and talk to Ah Ning, who was beside him. She did not get up at all.
Huo Heng frowned.
He even wondered if his mother was doing this on purpose!
Jing Yu had been in love twice before and was considered experienced. Seeing Huo Heng looking at Xia Cha, she secretly asked, “Do you have a crush on her?”
Huo Heng remained silent.
“The boy beside the young lady is very handsome. He’s fair and clean, and looks a little like a young hunk from the entertainment industry.”
Huo Heng’s expression darkened. “More handsome than me?”
It was Jing Yu’s first time seeing Huo Heng’s expression. She seemed to have discovered a new world and the cold woman couldn’t help but laugh. “I think I was right.”
“She doesn’t like that boy.”
Before Jing Yu could say anything, Huo Heng had already entered the orchard.
Jing Yu looked at the man’s cold and arrogant background and could not help but be even more surprised.
Ever since Huo Heng took over the Huo family’s business, there were countless women who wanted to get together with him. Old Master Huo, who wanted to have grandchildren, even introduced him to many rich young ladies.
But he remained indifferent.
There were even rumors in the high society that he was gay.
It turned out that he liked fair and clean girls with classical beauty!
…
By the time Huo Heng finished picking the fruits, Xia Cha and Ah Ning were no longer there.
Xia Zhenyuan was also preparing to leave the orchard. He asked Huo Heng, “Young Master Huo, do you want to stay for dinner at the farm?”
Huo Heng wanted to go back after picking the fruit, but the words he was about to say turned into a faint hum.
Jing Yu thought that there were still several messages to be dealt with and was in a hurry to go back. Huo Heng threw the car keys at her and said, “Bring the fruit back to my mother first.”
Jing Yu made a gesture to Huo Heng. “I have high hopes for you.”
Huo Heng’s face darkened and he almost asked Jing Yu to scram.
…
The three sisters brought the dishes Qiu Zhi had made to the courtyard.
As long as the weather was good, they would be in the courtyard for dinner.
The sounds of frogs and birds chirping while enjoying the cool night breeze while smelling the fragrance of flowers and plants gave a different feeling.
Xia Cha was arranging the dishes when Xia Xing suddenly poked her with her elbow.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Young Master Huo is here.”
Xia Cha looked up and saw Huo Heng, who was walking beside Xia Zhenyuan. She continued with her work with a calm expression.
However, a question flashed in her mind.
Why wasn’t he with his girlfriend?
Xia Chuan had gone out to deliver the goods back. When he saw Huo Heng, he snorted.
Xia Chuan knew that Xia Cha had dated Huo Heng and knew that they had broken up, although Xia Cha told him that she was the one who had asked for a break up first.
However, Xia Chuan was a protective maniac. In his heart, everything was definitely Huo Heng’s fault.
After dinner, Xia Cha entered the house with Ah Ning.
Seeing that Xia Cha did not look at him and did not talk to him, and even brought a pretty boy into the house after eating, Huo Heng was a little angry.
He did not know what he would do if he continued to stay here.
He took out his phone, wanting to call the driver to come and get him.
However, the weather was not good and it started to rain.
After Huo Heng heard from Xia Zhenyuan where the pretty boy was staying, he walked over to take a look.
The door was closed tightly and he could not see what the person inside was doing.
He went to the other guest room Qiu Zhi had arranged for him.
Standing by the window, he started to smoke.
…
Once Xia Cha went into work mode, nothing could affect her.
She was in a discussion with Ah Ning until midnight before she finally settled the lyrics of a new song.
Ah Ning was the reason why she was able to finish the new song and lyrics in such a short time.
Xia Cha patted Ah Ning’s shoulder. “Continue to work hard. You will get better in the future.”
Ah Ning looked at Xia Cha, who was about the same age as him, but spoke in an mature manner. She smiled and said, “Camellia, I won’t let you down.”
Xia Cha yawned. “It’s late. I’ll go back to my room and rest.”
Xia Cha took a few steps before she was stopped by Ah Ning.
“Camellia, you and President Huo…”
Xia Cha glanced at Ah Ning. “I’ll only talk to you about work.”
“Alright!” To Xia Cha, Ah Ning only had respect and admiration. Perhaps, he also had some feelings for her, but he knew that she would not like him, even though he was now a popular idol and had countless fangirls.
After Xia Cha left, Ah Ning could not fall asleep. Seeing that the rain had stopped, he got up and walked out of the room.
When hhe arrived at the courtyard, a cooling breeze blew over and Ah Ning had just stretched lazily when he was punched in the face.
Before Ah Ning could respond, his collar was grabbed by a pair of strong hands. Then, he was dragged to a corner.
…
The next day.
Xia Cha froze for a while when she saw Ah Ning’s bruised face.
Ah Ning had already packed his luggage and was ready to leave.
Looking at him like this, he would not be able to recover in a short period of time, which was undoubtedly a blow to him since he had to go on camera.
“You… what happened to you?”
Ah Ning thought of that man’s dangerous gaze and cold warning last night and said with a slightly hoarse voice, “I accidentally tripped. I’m fine.”
That was clearly a lie.
It was obvious he had been beaten up badly!
But since Ah Ning refused to say, Xia Cha could not continue asking.
Ah Ning left in his car.
When he left, he looked at Xia Cha, wanting to say something but stopped himself.
Xia Cha had a guess in her heart.
He found Xia Zhenyuan. “Dad, has Young Master Huo left?”
“He went to the stream in front.”
Xia Cha ran toward the stream.
Huo Heng squatted on a rock to take the call. From afar, he saw Xia Cha running over.
He chatted for a while before hanging up.
Xia Cha walked up to Huo Heng and saw him looking at her with his eyes slightly narrowed. She asked nervously, “Did you hit Ah Ning?”
Huo Heng’s lips twitched. “Why? Does your heart ache for that boy?”
This was not a matter of heart ache!
“Why did you hit him?”
“I’m unhappy with him.”
Was his a elementary school student? Did he have to beat someone up if he didn’t like them?
Xia Cha was angered by Huo Heng.
“You’re really despicable.” Xia Cha could not be bothered to talk to him anymore. She turned to leave.
There was a grip on her wrist.
Xia Cha struggled but could not break free. She pushed the man’s shoulder with her other hand.
She thought that she could not push him away, but the man who had crouched for too long, felt his legs go numb and was pushed into the stream.
There was a thump.
Xia Cha stared at the man who had fallen into the stream and became drenched. She was stunned for a few seconds.
When she regained her senses, she hurried forward. “I-I didn’t mean to. Are you all right?”
She held out her hand.
The stream was not deep, but Huo Heng was fine. He was just drenched and in a terrible state.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf someone else pushed him into the water, he might not have been so nice.
But looking at Xia Cha’s slender and fair hand that was reaching toward him, his eyes darkened and he grabbed her hand.
Xia Cha pulled her up.
Looking at his custom-made shirt that was stuck to his muscular chest now that it was wet, her ears blushed red.
“I’m just friends with Ah Ning. I only went to discuss the lyrics with him last night.” She hurriedly explained as she ran forward.
But very soon, she heard a man’s voice behind her. “The woman who came with me yesterday is my father’s assistant. She came to Yan City to convince my mother to get back together with my father.”
Finally, he added, “We only have a working relationship.”
Xia Cha’s long eyelashes trembled. “Oh.”
She ran away quickly.
Huo Heng frowned. What did that mean?
…
It was Old Master Huo’s birthday. After finding out that Xia Cha had returned to Harbor City, he asked the butler to send her an invitation and a gown.
Xia Cha was slightly surprised when she saw the gown sent by Old Master Huo.
Wasn’t this too formal?
However, at the thought that it was Old Master Huo’s birthday, if she went and did not wear the gown he had given her, she might make him unhappy.
On the day of Old Master Huo’s birthday banquet, Xia Mo and Junyuan also came to Harbor City from Ning City.
Xia Mo had found a makeup artist. They changed and put on makeup in the room while Junyuan sat on the sofa to wait for them.
“Tada. Darling, we’re done.”
Xia Mo was pushing Xia Cha in front. Xia Cha had put on makeup and was wearing a white gown. The thin fabric outlined her graceful and slender figure. Junyuan seemed to have thought of something and frowned slightly. “Cha Cha, is this the gown Old Master Huo gave you?”
Did he have any bad intentions by making Cha Cha to stun everyone?
Because Xia Mo had been with Junyuan for a long time, she understood his personality. She knew what he was thinking when he frowned. “Hubby, can’t Cha Cha stun everyone?”
Seeing Xia Mo glaring at him, Junyuan cupped his hand and coughed. “Not bad.”
Nothing would happen if she went with Xia Mo.
Old Master Huo’s birthday banquet was held at the Huo family’s old mansion.
When the three of them arrived, everyone was already dressed to the nines.
Entering the lobby, the three of them walked up to Old Master Huo and greeted him.
When Old Master Huo saw Xia Cha, he nodded. “Little girl, I haven’t seen you for a year, but you’re getting prettier.”
“Thank you for your compliment, Grandpa Huo.”
Old Master Huo pushed Xia Mo and Junyuan away and said to Xia Cha, “What do you think of that young man over there?”
Xia Cha looked in the direction where Old Master Huo was pointing and saw a man in a pink suit. She had to admit that the man was not feminine in pink. Instead, he was very handsome. “Not bad.”
“That’s the son of the Zhou family. Our family has ties with them. He looks talented and just came back from abroad, but I heard he doesn’t have a girlfriend.”
Xia Cha blinked. “Grandpa Huo, don’t tell me you want to be a matchmaker.”
“So? Are you interested?”
He said it like she was in any place to pick on others.
Xia Cha was about to say something when a man’s voice trailed over. “Grandpa, what are you talking about?”
Looking at Huo Heng who was coming down the stairs, Xia Cha was about to signal to Old Master Huo with her eyes to stop him when she heard him say at the top of his voice, “I’m introducing a boyfriend to my ‘savior’. I think the young lad from the Zhou family is very good!”
