Chapter 734: Huo Yunting’s Counterattack (1)Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I will.”
Huo Chen looked at him deeply in the eyes, and turned away with gusto, not forgetting to throw down one last sentence, “If it is for Yangyang, I will definitely come back alive.”
“…”
Was it too late for him to curse him now?
“You don’t have to worry too much about my wife, worry about yourself.”
Huo Chen did not turn back and simply waved as he got up the steps and into the cabin.
Following that, Wen He too retracted the flux in her eyes, and looked at Huo Yunting. “Mr Huo, I know Huo Chen had handed Xiao Bai into your care. Sorry to trouble you.”
Huo Yunting raised his eyebrow, and gave a simple ‘Um.”
“Thank you.”
With the cabin door closed, the dark silver combat carrier taxied on the runway before slowly taking off. With a few turns midair, it flew further and higher.
Finally it became a small dot in Huo Yunting’s eyes, and only until it had disappeared into the horizon did he looked away, and got into his car.
He sped all the way back.
The moment he got home, he ignored Huo Zhenning and took Lu Zhaoyang all the way back to Jing City without stop.
He only heard Lu Zhaoyang mumbling to herself for the next few hours, and all of it was her worry about Huo Chen. Huo Yunting’s veins popped all over his forehead. As soon as the car stopped, he immediately carried her out.
“Huo Yunting, what are you doing!”
Huo Yunting kicked the bedroom door open, and gently placed the woman in his arms down.
“You had not been resting well for the past few days, sleep a little.”
“I’m not sleepy…”
Lu Zhaoyang still had something else to say but Huo Yunting had forcefully tugged her in, and put the blanket over her as his warm hands covered her eyes.
In the darkness, only his gentle yet domineering voice was heard. “Listen to me, take a nap. I’ll be here with you.”
“Alright.”
Lu Zhaoyang played along, and slowly closed her eyes.
She was indeed really worn out.
Especially in the past few days, first was her mother’s unexpected suicide, and Huo Yunting being dragged into the rumormongering that followed.
Now Huo Chen was leading his men in battle again; and these series of problems and concerns had her all tensed up, and could not find peace.
As he saw her breathing slowly turned steady, Huo Yunting lifted his hand, and stared at her silently for a moment, before closing in, and gently peck on her forehead.
At that moment, a gentle knock was heard on the door.
Huo Yunting got up, and opened the door.
Huo Li was standing in front of the door with a stack of doc.u.ments, before he could speak, Huo Yunting put a finger on his lips, and made a ‘sshh’ motion, before walking towards the study.
Huo Li immediately followed, not forgetting to carefully close the bedroom door as he went.
Once they were in the study, he immediately pa.s.sed the doc.u.ments over.
“These are all the projects that the company had managed to get recently, while there were some twist and turns, but all had turned out well.
Huo Yunting sat down, and crossed his leg nonchalantly, before skimming through the reports with a devil-may-care att.i.tude. He then raised his eyebrow, his tone casual. “What about the effect of the press conference?”
“Acceptable.”
Huo Li too sank onto the sofa like a potato.
“The share prices are rising again, and you are spoken less by the outside world for now. After a while, everything will be normal again, but that Xiang Jinxi sure is a b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Like the rat he is, he dare not face you head-on, and could only resort to third rate bulls.h.i.+ts.”
As he heard that, Huo Yunting tapped the table surface, as if there was something in his mind.
