Chapter 161 Be Very Upset
Xia Luobing drove the car into the yard with the steering wheel. Seeing the two people holding hands in front of her, her eyes flashed and she felt very uneasy. If Huo Yunqi knew Duo Duo’s ident.i.ty
Now that he hated her to death, he would definitely s.n.a.t.c.h her away and take revenge on her.
Thinking of this, Xia Luobing made up her mind to hide this secret. He absolutely, absolutely couldn’t let Yunqi know.
“Why didn’t you come in?”
Huo Yunqi suddenly turned around and said. He was so shocked that Xia Luobing forgot how to react. He instinctively looked over and saw that there were still worries, hesitation, and determination in her eyes.
Seeing Xia Luobing’s serious and complicated expression, Yunqi’s heart skipped a beat. He stared at her for a while before he entered the living room without saying a word.
“Uncle’s home is so beautiful.” Duo Duo climbed onto the sofa with both hands and feet and blinked at Yunqi Huo. She liked this uncle very much, as if she liked him more than Uncle Gao.
Huo Yunqi loosened his tie and walked over to sit on the sofa. He hugged Duo Duo and placed her on his lap. He was just about to tease the little girl when he noticed Xia Luobing’s guarded gaze. He was furious. Was this woman guarding against him like a thief because she was worried about what he would do to Duo Duo?
This knowledge made Huo Yunqi incomparably angry. Even if he was angry at her ruthlessness and betrayal, he would not shamelessly vent his resentment on a three-year-old girl!
“Cook.” Huo Yunqi glanced coldly at Xia Luobing. At the same time, his large palms touched the soft hair and his heart softened. This child was really adorable. If only it was his daughter.
Duo Duo did not understand Huo Yunqi’s thoughts, but she angrily pulled his hand that was rubbing his hair. She glared at his obsidian-like eyes and said angrily, “Uncle Huo messed up my hairstyle!”
Although Uncle Huo is very handsome, he can’t make her ugly!
Seeing the little girl’s serious expression, Huo Yunqi finally couldn’t help but laugh. He curved his lips and said, “You know how stinky and beautiful you are at such a young age.”
This child will definitely be a great beauty when she grows up, and there will definitely be many people who like her.
“Each of them is beautiful.”
“Right …”
Hearing the cheerful laughter coming from the living room, Xia Luobing, who was standing in the kitchen, was in a trance for a moment. Was it father-daughter nature? Otherwise, why was Yunqi so intimate with Duo Duo?
If that was the case, wouldn’t it be too much for her to conceal it?
But what if she’s wrong
Xia Luobing shook her head. She didn’t dare to block it. Now she couldn’t stand the pain of losing her daughter.
The soup in the pot was rummaging through the water. Xia Luobing stood in the kitchen in a daze. It took her a long time to regain her senses. She hurriedly prepared the ingredients for the pot, and the fragrance immediately dissipated.
“Mommy, your flowers are so hungry.”
The soft little person ran into the kitchen from the living room and hugged Xia Luobing’s legs. The feeling of being completely dependent on her made Xia Luobing feel even more determined. She would definitely protect her daughter and definitely not let her leave her side.
Huo Yunqi looked at the two of them and curled his lips. “The child is well raised.”
Xia Luobing was shocked. She looked at Huo Yunqi with caution, not sure if he already knew anything
Feeling Xia Luobing’s defenses again, Huo Yunqi sneered, “Get ready to eat.”
Looks like after so many years, this woman still hasn’t learned her lesson.
Seeing Huo Yunqi leave the kitchen, Duo Duo tugged at Xia Luobing’s clothes and looked up worriedly, “Mommy, Uncle Huo is so pretty.”
Xia Luobing was stunned for a moment. “Yes” was her answer. She caressed her daughter’s hair and swore in her heart that no matter what, she would leave her daughter by her side. No one could take her away!
“Mommy.” Duo Duo lowered her head and thought for a while before looking up at Xia Luobing with determination, “Will we stay here forever?”
Sensing that her daughter’s expression was a little different from usual, Charlotte patiently squatted down and hugged her daughter’s soft body and whispered, “Tell Mommy, what are you thinking?”
All these years, although she had been busy with her work, other than her work, she had put all her attention on her daughter, so she could guess what she was thinking about her daughter.
“Mommy, I like Uncle Huo.” Duo Duo leaned against Xia Luobing’s embrace and arched like a kitten, “I feel like Uncle Huo is like daddy …”
Xia Luobing’s heart skipped a beat, and a cold chill appeared on her back. How could Duo Duo have such an idea?
Because of Gao Yi’an’s care, he had always played a very important role in Duo Duo’s growth in the past few years. Sometimes Duo Duo would say that she wanted Gao Yi’an to be her father, but today was the first time she had met Yunqi Huo, so why did she have such an idea?
“Mommy, what’s wrong with you?” Seeing that Xia Luobing didn’t say anything, Duo Duo’s soft fingers gently touched Xia Luobing’s cheek and she was worried, “Did Duo Duo say something wrong, so Mommy was unhappy?”
Xia Luobing gently shook her head, “Duo Duo is very obedient, but have you forgotten the game we talked about today? You must not tell Uncle Huo about Uncle Gao. Let’s see if Uncle Huo is very smart. What do you think?”
“Alright.”
Having been comforted by Xia Luobing, Duoduo ran back to the living room happily. She took the initiative to climb onto Huo Yunqi’s lap and hug his neck. “I like Uncle Huo,” she said.
Huo Yunqi’s heart inexplicably warmed up. He grabbed the fellow so that she could sit comfortably on his lap and smiled, “Is that so?”
Xia Luobing avoided him like a snake and scorpion. She didn’t expect her daughter to be willing to be so close to him. And he … also liked this little girl very much.
“Right, right!” Duo Duo nodded her head forcefully. The little girl was young, but her idea was very positive. She had long hoped that Mommy would find a daddy for her. However, Mommy had always thought that she was a child and did not care about her words at all. So now, she could only personally take action.
Moreover, Uncle Huo was really handsome. She really liked him.
“Eat.”
Charlotte brought all the dishes to the table, took the ap.r.o.n and looked at the people in the living room. Her eyes flashed when she saw the big and the small sitting together, but she quickly restrained her emotions.
She knew very well how smart Huo Yunqi was. For the sake of her daughter, she had better be careful.
Duo Duo jumped down from Yunqi’s lap, took the initiative to hold his pinky and followed him into the dining hall. Seeing the food on the table, she smiled like a flower, “Mommy is amazing.”
She likes Mommy’s cooking best, maybe Uncle Huo likes it too … If Uncle Huo likes Mommy’s cooking, he will like Mommy, and then they will live together, and then she will have a daddy
Duo Duo smiled brightly, her eyes moving back and forth between Xia Luobing and Yunqi.
Yunqi didn’t notice Duo Duo’s little thoughts. Instead, he looked at Xia Luobing in surprise when he saw the dishes on the table. “You actually know how to cook.”
Four years ago, when they were together, Xia Luobing was busy with her work every day. At most, he would make a boiled noodle. No matter what, he could not make such a sumptuous meal.
Thinking about the past four years, her meticulous study and cooking had made it cheaper for Gao Yi’an. Huo Yunqi felt his heart jam and the food in his mouth had lost its flavor. His eyes scanned back and forth between Xia Luobing and Duo Duo.
Gao Yi’an, she actually had a child with Gao Yi’an
“Uncle Huo?” Duo Duo’s eyes widened as she looked at Huo Yunqi, who was in a daze. “Why do you keep looking at Mommy? Do you think Mommy’s food isn’t delicious?”
Huo Yunqi came back to his senses and put a piece of fish in his mouth. “It tastes good,” he nodded.
“I knew Uncle would like Mommy’s dishes.” Duo Duo said excitedly, but she glanced at the food on the table and looked at Xia Luobing pitifully, “Mommy, I don’t like coriander …”
Xia Luobing was stunned and rubbed her daughter’s hair to coax her, “Good girl, if you don’t like food, others might like it … so a good child can’t be so selfish, you know?”
Duoduo was stunned for a moment and nodded bitterly, “Alright, Uncle Huo likes coriander, doesn’t he?”
“I don’t like it!”
Huo Yunqi directly threw out a sentence. There was anger, joy, and complicated feelings entangled together, making people feel like they couldn’t vent their anger.
The “other person” she was talking about was him?
Four years ago, he had lived with Charlotte for so long, yet she had never noticed that he didn’t eat coriander … It seemed that this woman really didn’t take him seriously.
“Duoduo doesn’t like it either!” Duo Duo seemed to have found the Alliance Army. She waved her hand at Xia Luobing excitedly, “Next time, Mommy, don’t put any coriander!”
Xia Luobing was stunned for a moment. She didn’t know if the two of them had similar eating habits, or was it a coincidence … father-daughter nature?
Now that the three of them were living under the same roof, Xia Luobing had no choice but to keep his spirits up for fear that one of them would accidentally reveal his secret.
“Mommy?” Duo Duo waved at Charlotte with great effort, “Did you hear Duo Duo’s words?”
Xia Luobing suddenly regained her senses and nodded awkwardly, “Got it. Don’t make a fuss. Eat obediently.”
Huo Yunqi looked at Charlotte thoughtfully, her eyes flashing. However, she didn’t say anything in the end. She just glanced at Charlotte when she was helping the dishes.
After a meal, Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat. With great difficulty, she settled the little girl down and played games in the living room. Charlotte let out a long sigh of relief as she supported the sink with both hands.
Bringing Duo Duo beside her was a very dangerous thing. She wasn’t sure how long she could hide it … If Huo Yunqi found out about it, it would be terrible.
The sound of water echoed in the kitchen, but Xia Luobing looked out of the window blankly as if she hadn’t heard it.
” Xia Luobing, you’re feeling guilty.”
A low voice suddenly rang out, causing Charlotte’s ice hand to tremble. The white plate slipped out of her hand and fell to the ground. With a “clang” sound, it was completely shattered.
“Sorry!” Charlotte lowered her head in panic to pick up the fragments.
“Don’t move!”
“Ah!”
Just as Huo Yunqi’s voice fell, the b.u.t.tons on Charlotte’s hand were cut by the fragments. Yin Hong’s blood took advantage of the white plate and was red to the point of being soul-stirring.
“Stupid!” Huo Yunqi pinched Charlotte’s fingers and rushed under the tap for a while. Then, he pulled her into the living room with a dark face. Seeing Duo Duo was still in the living room, his expression relaxed and he said, “Duo Duo, go get the small medicine chest from the box over there.”
Seeing that Xia Luobing’s fingers were bleeding, Duo Duo’s face turned pale from fear. She hurriedly trotted to Huo Yunqi’s instructions, took the medical kit, trotted back and handed it to Huo Yunqi. Then, she looked nervously at Xia Luobing and said, “Mommy must be in pain, right?”
Charlotte rubbed her daughter’s hair and said, “It doesn’t hurt.”
