Assistant to My Contracted Husband

"Um, you hurt me... Are you angry because of what I said, Earl?"

Huo Zun: "..."

Huo Zun’s eyes turned cold once more.

"Is that how you see me, huh?"

Hua Nuan looked at the dangerous spark in the man’s blue eyes, then a bright smile curved on her lips.

"Yes, and also a bit foolish..."

Huo Zun: "..."

The woman’s beautiful eyes gleamed with slyness, quite endearing, and Huo Zun’s blue eyes flickered as he realized it was the woman’s prank.

Hua Nuan’s gaze fell on the man’s handsome face, and she said seriously.

"Huo Zun, I trust you, I think I owe you an apology and a thank you."

Hua Nuan extended her small hand to hold the man’s large hand, then said sincerely.

"Thank you for buying me at the auction back then, and I’m sorry for always opposing you and misunderstanding you all these years."

Huo Zun: "..."

The woman’s small hand was soft, delicate as if time had stopped.

Hua Nuan was holding him like this for the first time, and her large, expressive eyes seemed to make everything around them overflow with life.

Huo Zun’s heart pounded uncontrollably.

Initially burning with intense anger, at this moment, because of the woman’s words, his blue eyes softened, deep inside flickering with captivating light.

"What did you say?"

Hua Nuan: "..."

Ha, truly a foolish son of a landlord.

She had made it so clear and straightforward, yet the man still seemed to not understand.

Hua Nuan chuckled softly, then raised her hand to hook the man’s neck, like brothers with arms around each other. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"I said thank you... really, thank you very much. Why do we have to get married? We get along so well, becoming sworn siblings wouldn’t be bad either..."

Huo Zun: "..."

Upon hearing the woman’s words, Huo Zun’s face turned dark.

Shit!

Who the hell wants to be siblings with her?

Ha, clearly she’s my woman, an indisputable fact.

Hua Nuan raised her phoenix-like eyes, looked at the man’s darkened face, then, smilingly, asked back.

"Um, are you cursing?"

Huo Zun’s lips twitched; what he had originally used on Hua Nuan, the cheeky girl had now used on him fully.

The man’s silence was a tacit admission.

Hua Nuan pretended to be helpless and said: "So, I treat you as a brother, yet you want to sleep with me..."

Huo Zun: "..."

He already knew the little rascal was mischievous and lively.

Now increasingly discovering she was also eloquent.

Huo Zun narrowed his blue eyes, then pulled the woman entirely into his arms, while the driver quickly and sensibly lowered the curtain, isolating the back seat from the front.

"I not only want to sleep with you, but also want you to bear children for me; I want you to stay by my side for lifetime after lifetime, got it?"

Hua Nuan: "..."

The man’s blue eyes burned with intense possessiveness, an intensity that seemed to swallow her whole.

Hua Nuan swallowed unconsciously, soon realizing that every word Huo Zun uttered was serious.

Hua Nuan tugged at her lips, their breaths intertwined, facing each other, it seemed... easy to ignite, her cheeks reddened involuntarily.

Realizing her own loss of composure, Hua Nuan awkwardly pushed against the man’s chest, then said: "Okay, okay, I get it, alright..."

Accept fate willingly, back then, the Hua Family really had no connection to Huo Zun, so marrying...

In exchange for a truth from years past, it was worth it.

Hua Nuan sat upright, suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, looked at the man beside her, and couldn’t help but speak: "Back on topic, I’m just guessing that Hua Dong’s sudden death might not be accidental, perhaps someone is hiding the truth, but these are just my guesses. Specifically, let Brother Hua Han investigate further."

"Hmm, you trust Hua Han a lot?"

"Um, still the same words, trying to trust is always better than trying to deny a person..."

Hua Nuan tugged at her lips, spread her hands, raised her hand to rub her temples.

"The key is, everything today happened right under our noses... At first, questioning, then Hua Dong’s heart discomfort, Brother Hua Han gave him medicine, passed him water, he took the medicine, got better, then proceeded, Hua Ruyi was shot in the finger, then you fired a shot... The process is correct."

All in all... it really seems correct.

Who knows why Hua Dong would suddenly die upon revealing the truth.

Huo Zun narrowed his blue eyes, listening to Hua Nuan’s muttering, clearly reviewing all today’s processes once more.
