Chapter 755: DejaVu
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
In fact, Huo Xiuyuan had met Kelly by chance when he was hiding overseas.
At that time, he was overseas and hid in the chaotic slums. When he went out by chance, he happened to encounter a robbery.
At that time, Kelly, who was pa.s.sing by, saved him.
Hearing Huo Xiuyuan say that he had met an acquaintance, Kelly raised her eyebrows and pouted, pretending to recall.
“Is it the b.a.s.t.a.r.d you mentioned earlier?” she asked.
Huo Xiuyuan nodded naturally. “Yes, that’s not important. I’ll definitely play with you to your heart’s content since we’ve returned to my country this time.” Huo Xiuyuan, who had been raised by Huo Hong since he was young, was best at reading people from their body language.
Seeing that Kelly was not satisfied with the delay just now, he hurriedly shifted the focus of the conversation to Kelly. In just a few words, he made this
20-year-old girl burst with joy.
“Then it’s a deal. We’ll go out to play tomorrow and the day after.” Kelly made
the final decision.
Huo Xiuyuan naturally doted on her. “Of course, but when we came here, your father…”
He sounded a little hesitant, but Kelly waved her hand indifferently, looking completely unworried.
“Father is busy with the gang all day and doesn’t have the time to care about
me,” Kelly said casually.
Huo Xiuyuan’s eyes flickered. He didn’t say anything else after hearing this.
“On the other hand, since I’ve accompanied you back to your country this time, after you’re done, I think we can hold the wedding when we get back. How about that?” Kelly’s thoughts jumped.
The topics she mentioned were always unrelated, but they all revolved around
Huo Xiuyuan.
Huo Xiuyuan smiled. “Up to you.”
He said it gently enough, so the original perfunctory meaning of his words was overshadowed.
Kelly, on the other hand, was overjoyed when she heard his answer. She picked up her phone and sent a message to someone. The smile on her face didn’t disappear, and her arms were tightly wrapped around Huo Xiuyuan. She leaned close to him, looking like a couple in love.
However, the two of them were not a regular couple, but an engaged couple.
Huo Xiuyuan was planning his next move, so he didn’t take Kelly’s words to heart at all.
He naturally wanted to take back the Huo Corporation when he returned to the country this time. How could he go overseas to hold a wedding with the other party?
Thinking of the gang behind Kelly and the help she had given him, Huo Xiuyuan frowned slightly and suppressed his perfunctory att.i.tude.
Now was not the time to fall out with the other party. He still needed Kelly to help him take back the Huo Corporation that should have belonged to him. A month ago, Huo Xiuyuan had gotten to know Kelly after she saved him. Kelly had grown up in a gang environment since she was young and had long seen what chaos, violence, and bloodshed were like. As the leader of a generation, her father doted on his daughter a lot, but he was always busy with all kinds of things, so he rarely spent time with Kelly.
This led to Kelly’s very free and indulgent personality. Coupled with the fact that she had been used to everything around her since she was young, the moment Huo Xiuyuan, who had an Asian face and an extraordinary appearance, appeared, he stole all of Kelly’s attention.
She couldn’t help but fall in love with Huo Xiuyuan at first sight and then pursue him.
It seemed a little inaccurate to say that she was pursuing him. After all, Kelly had used forceful methods that had the style of a gang. Fortunately, Huo Xiuyuan accepted Kelly’s intentions very calmly.
This pa.s.sionate relationship heated up in just a month, so much so that Kelly wanted to get engaged to Huo Xiuyuan.
After learning Kelly’s background, Huo Xiuyuan naturally wouldn’t reject this benefit. However, at the same time, Kelly’s father had also investigated his background.
“When you complete your goal this time and we go back to get married, my father won’t say anything,” Kelly suddenly said.
Fortunately, Kelly and her father had a good relationship. Although the two of them usually didn’t spend much time together, as long as his daughter wanted something, her father would try his best to satisfy her.
Therefore, even after knowing that Kelly had taken a fancy to Huo Xiuyuan and had investigated his background, her father didn’t raise any objections.
In short, as long as her daughter was happy, nothing else was important. Huo Xiuyuan followed her words. “Then do you like Western-style weddings? Or Chinese-style weddings? We can hold two.”
In any case, Huo Xiuyuan had no intention of really going overseas with her, so it was effortless for him to speak now. He was calm.
“Then we’ll do everything. Speaking of which, I haven’t worn a cheongsam before.” Kelly was fully curious about everything in this country.
This was also the first time she had gone overseas since she grew up, so she had a novel att.i.tude towards everything around her. From time to time, her attention would drift here and there, so she didn’t notice the strange emotions Huo Xiuyuan revealed sometimes.
Kelly’s voice kept ringing in his ears. Huo Xiuyuan couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed, and even felt disgusted by the fragrance in the car.
He couldn’t breathe, so he reached out to open the car window and looked out casually.
Huo Xiuyuan had clearly seen the grand sceneries since he was young, but at this moment, he felt a different feeling. He looked at the tall buildings and pedestrians pa.s.sing by the roadside and was in a daze for a moment.
Huo Xiuyuan looked around casually, unaware that Huo Ya, who was standing in the crowd, had also noticed him.
Huo Ya was originally going out to play with Jiang Weiyang today.
However, the other party and Sofia were going to watch the compet.i.tion, so they ditched her.
After that, Huo Ya came out to relax, but she didn’t expect to see someone who seemed to be Huo Xiuyuan.
It was just a pa.s.sing glance. When she saw the familiar face, she was in disbelief. However, when she wanted to take a closer look, the car flashed past quickly, not giving Huo Ya any chance.
Was it him…?
Questions appeared in Huo Ya’s heart, but the face she saw just now seemed to be engraved in her mind. It was difficult for her to forget it, and she even forgot what she wanted to do just now.
However, thinking of the Huo Family’s current situation, Huo Ya hesitated and decided to call her father.
“Dad, is Huo Xiuyuan alright now?” Huo Ya couldn’t help but ask as soon as the call went through. Her tone was filled with an imperceptible urgency.
“What are you doing now? Didn’t I tell you that he s overseas?
An impatient voice and the sound of paper flipping came from the other end. He seemed to be in the office.
Ever since Huo Yichen took control of the Huo Family, no one had mentioned Huo Xiuyuan again. Other than Huo Ya, who often asked her father about him, she always received an answer from him that he was overseas.
Huo Ya opened her mouth, not knowing how to explain where her question came from.
She couldn’t possibly say that she was just strolling on the streets and saw someone who looked very similar to Huo Xiuyuan.
Thinking of the expensive car she had seen just now, the brand of which was something that even her father couldn’t afford, Huo Ya suddenly felt that she was hallucinating because she missed the other party too much.
When Huo Xiuyuan ran overseas in a sorry state, she was the one who helped him. Naturally, she knew what was going on with the other party. That car had nothing to do with Huo Xiuyuan.
“If there’s nothing else, hang up. I’m still busy here.” An impatient voice came from the other end of the phone.
Huo Ya hurriedly came back to her senses. “It’s fine, Dad.”
Perhaps she was thinking too much..
