Assistant to My Contracted Husband-Chapter 1758 - 1756: The Fox’s Tail Is Showing (Part 4)
...
Hua Nuan gathered her thoughts, suppressing the unease in her heart, and then allowed the man to carry her step by step toward the front.
In fact, the road ahead was still long, and carrying her back to the villa would be very tiring for Huo Zun.
Yet the man didn’t utter a single word.
...
The journey that originally took 30 minutes by car took Huo Zun three full hours on foot.
During that time, Hua Nuan wanted to persuade the man multiple times not to carry her anymore, but the man insisted on doing so.
Xiaobai, on the other hand, lazily slept in the back seat.
Finally, they reached the Huo Family estate, and before Hua Nuan could speak, the butler took the initiative to speak.
"Mr. Huo, please take a rest."
"No need, I’m not tired. Please arrange for dinner."
"Yes, sir."
Hua Nuan watched the man’s tall figure move ahead of her, then picked up Xiaobai and cradled him in her arms. Watching the little creature lazily in her arms, she chuckled softly.
The little guy truly enjoyed himself today.
He returned riding in a luxury car, all by himself.
"Meow!"
Xiaobai snuggled in Hua Nuan’s arms; being by Hua Nuan’s side was certainly quite thrilling.
...
Huo Zun had excellent stamina, even after carrying Hua Nuan for three hours, there wasn’t a hint of exhaustion.
Hua Nuan observed the man, full of energy, yet felt somewhat distracted.
She never pondered over the man’s actions before, but today there was a strange feeling in her heart.
...
After dinner, worried about how to face Huo Zun, Hua Nuan quickly went upstairs with Xiaobai. After washing up, she pulled the quilt over her head and went to sleep.
Huo Zun watched her actions, his thin lips barely curved into a smile, knowing that Hua Nuan’s mind was in a bit of a mess, so he didn’t expose her little thoughts. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Hua Nuan soon felt suffocated under the covers. While the man was showering, she took big breaths.
Hmm, stay calm.
Don’t lose your composure.
The most important thing right now is to find out who the traitor was back then!
...
Hua Nuan, lost in her thoughts, then fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up, she saw the servant waiting nervously by her side, afraid to make too much noise.
Hua Nuan’s eyes widened, and upon seeing her awake, the servant said, "Madam, you’re awake. The Hua Family came to visit this morning. Mr. Huo went downstairs to greet them and instructed us to tell you after you woke up."
The Hua Family came?
Hua Nuan’s eyes widened, it was likely about the Southeast Asia business that Huo Zun mentioned last time.
"Alright, I’ll freshen up and go down now."
"Yes, Madam."
The servant breathed a sigh of relief, being cautious and timid around Hua Nuan.
"Oh, Mr. Huo mentioned that you needn’t go directly to the living room; you can head to the study on the second floor to directly observe everything in the living room."
"Alright, thank you."
Hua Nuan replied calmly. Since Huo Zun suggested this,
He surely intended to help her probe Hua Dong.
A trace of darkness flashed in Hua Nuan’s beautiful eyes. She quickly freshened up in the bathroom and then headed straight to the study on the second floor.
In the study, a large display screen was embedded in the wall, and the content displayed on the screen was none other than the figures of Huo Zun and Hua Dong in the living room.
Half of the tea in the cup was already consumed, and there was no steam coming from it, indicating that Hua Dong had likely been there for a while. However, Ruyi and Hua Han didn’t come along, which slightly surprised Hua Nuan.
