Chapter 1840: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (44)
After Xia Furong threw herself into Huo Heng’s arms, she quickly stood up straight.
Embarra.s.sed, she said, “Young Master Huo, I sprained my ankle just now. I didn’t do it on purpose. I’m sorry for b.u.mping into you…”
Her long eyelashes fluttered and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked so pitiful that most men would be moved and pity her.
But Huo Heng had seen too many women.
He could tell what Xia Furong was thinking at a glance.
Xia Furong was quite pretty. If it was the old him, he might have flirted with her a bit.
But now, he had no interest in any girl other than Xia Cha.
Huo Heng removed the cigarette from between his lips. His long and narrow eyes suddenly turned sharp and he spat out coldly, “Get lost!”
Xia Furong hadn’t expected Huo Heng’s att.i.tude toward her to be so bad!
Ever since she was young, boys would also treat her well as long as she took the initiative to approach. No one had ever spoken loudly to her, let alone told her to get lost!
The tears circling in Xia Furong’s eyes fell uncontrollably.
From the corner of his eye, Huo Heng saw Xia Cha standing not far away.
Seeing Huo Heng looking at her, Xia Cha turned around and ran away quickly.
Huo Heng stubbed his cigarette with his slender fingers, threw it into the rubbish bin, and chased after Xia Cha.
Although Xia Cha was thin, she ran as quickly as a rabbit.
But in the end, Huo Heng was tall and had long legs. One step was equivalent to her two steps. Before long, he caught up to her.
Huo Heng stood in front of Xia Cha and raised his eyebrows at her. “Little girl, why are you running?”
Xia Cha hugged the notebook she just bought and glanced at the man. “Weren’t you hugging Xia Furong? I’ll walk further away and not disturb you!”
Huo Heng put his hands into his pockets and smiled. “Who is Xia Furong? The one who fell into my arms on purpose?”
Xia Cha looked at Huo Heng suspiciously. Currently, Xia Furong was the most beautiful person in the Xia family.
Young Master Huo actually said that he didn’t know her?
The two of them must have met two or three times already!
As if seeing through Xia Cha’s thoughts, Huo Heng’s tall figure stepped forward and bowed slightly. “In my eyes, only my little fiancée is the most beautiful.”
A refres.h.i.+ng breath with a faint tobacco smell sprayed down and landed on Xia Cha’s small face. Her thick and long eyelashes fluttered and she looked into the man’s deep and pa.s.sionate eyes for a few seconds.
Then, she pushed his shoulder. “Young Master Huo, you’re seriously ill.”
Xia Cha turned around and walked forward.
Huo Heng followed behind her.
“I’m sick.”
Xia Cha turned around and glanced at him, “Then go to the doctor.”
“The doctor doesn’t have any medicine for me. Only you can treat me.” Huo Heng’s gaze on her became deeper and deeper. He held her slender arm. “You’re my medicine, Little Camellia.”
“Young Master Huo, do you believe that I will kick you if you continue to talk like this?” Xia Cha glanced at his slender legs. “It wasn’t easy for you to walk normally. You don’t want to become disabled again, right?”
Xia Cha thought that Huo Heng would get angry after hearing her words. She did not expect his handsome face to remain calm. He curled his lips into a devilish smile, “Little camellia, do you think I’m made of paper?”
Xia Cha opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she heard the man’s voice with a wicked smile, “Now I’m very healthy. Not only can you not kick me, but I can also carry you and run.”
Xia Cha glared at him, and the man’s smile only deepened.
Suddenly, he stretched out his long arms and lifted her delicate body.
Xia Cha had not expected him to really hug her. She was caught off guard as she was suddenly lifted into the air, exclaiming, “Ah, what are you doing? Put me down!”
She didn’t have Xia Tang’s memories and was still a sixteen-year-old girl.
She was embarra.s.sed and angry to be suddenly carried by the opposite s.e.x.
Her white hands clenched into fists and she threw them at his shoulders.
“Let go of me!”
It was broad daylight, yet he was hugging her like this. Even if he didn’t care about his dignity, she did!
Huo Heng looked at Xia Cha’s flushed face and carried her forward. Compared to her panic and helplessness, he was much calmer. “What are you afraid of? You’re my fiancée now.”
Xia Cha pursed her lips tightly. “Young Master Huo, I’m an ordinary girl. What exactly do you like about me? Can’t I change?”
“I’ve taken a liking to your soul. Can you change it?”
Hearing his words, Xia Cha felt that he was deliberately teasing her!
Seeing that someone was looking at them and pointing at them, she said angrily, “But I don’t like you. To put it bluntly, Young Master Huo isn’t my type.”
Her last sentence struck Huo Heng like a thunderbolt, causing him to freeze on the spot!
He was no stranger to these words.
Xia Tang had told him that before.
The moment he found out that he was terminally ill, he regretted not treating Tangtang well.
But she had felt nothing but disgust and dislike for him.
In the end, she had even lost her life!
Huo Heng looked at Xia Cha, who was in his arms, and various emotions surged in his heart.
He put Xia Cha down and she ran away without looking at him.
Xia Cha walked back home on the small path. On the way, she thought of Huo Heng’s changed face and frowned.
She could feel that he was angry.
However, she was only telling the truth. Was there anything wrong with that?!
She shook her head. She didn’t want to guess Huo Heng’s thoughts. It was actually good to let him know what she was thinking.
She did not want to fall in love at all. She only wanted to study hard and have a career that she liked in the future so that her family’s conditions could get better!
Xia Cha ran all the way to the Southern Mountains.
When she reached her house, she saw a black car parked in the courtyard.
Xia Cha quickly walked into the house.
Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi’s enthusiastic voices could be heard. “Young Master Huo, our Cha Cha went out to buy some school stationery. She should be back soon.”
“Young Master Huo, have some tea!”
Xia Cha entered the room and looked at the handsome side profile. She quickly retreated.
What was wrong with Young Master Huo? He was clearly angry. Why had he come to her house?
Xia Cha went into her room and did not go out until Qiu Zhi called her out for dinner.
Qiu Zhi gently patted Xia Cha’s head when she saw her coming out of the room. “Why didn’t you come out? Young Master Huo is here.”
“Mom, are you really treating him as your son-in-law?”
A smile appeared on Qiu Zhi’s face. “Young Master Huo is a pretty good kid. The more I look at him, the more I like him.”
“Mom…”
“Okay, okay. I know you’re still young, but Young Master Huo didn’t say that he would marry you immediately. Why don’t you get to know each other first?”
Xia Cha could not help but mutter in her heart. Her mother must have been bewitched by Young Master Huo!
