All these years, there was not a single moment where Lu Zhaoyang forgot the angelic face of her daughter. The blossom-colored face and the voice of her giggles remained imprinted in her mind. She crossed her hands with her head lowered, “Ran Ran is my one and only daughter I’ll ever have! No one can replace her, even if we can never get her back this whole life.”
“Don’t worry. It won’t end like this,” said Huo Yunting patting his wife’s shoulder. “No matter how long, we will get her back. Even if we did not make it, our son will continue the search for us.”
Lu Zhaoyang looked a bit more relieved when her man mentioned about Huo Xu. He was capable and determined indeed. He loved Huo Ran as much as she did too.
But she got worried again upon thinking about her son, “Sighs, I can’t tell what that boy is up to. He’s our only son. You wanted him to study in a business academy yet he insisted on going for the military. ‘To serve the country,’ he said. At least Chen is there to watch him for us or I can never sleep soundly at night.”
Huo Yunting snorted, “Darling, he’s my son. He needs no watchman, especially when the watchman is Chen.”
“…”
h.e.l.lo??
Did I just hear my husband being envious of his brother again even after our son has all grown up?
Pinching her forehead, Lu Zhaoyang shook her head as she was feeling ridiculed. “Compared to our son, I’m more worried about Run Run, frankly speaking. She’s still so young and naive. If she was cheated in relations.h.i.+ps, she might be very much in pain.” She then took a look down the stairs where Huo Junyu arrived after a brief honk from their Rolls-Royce. Someone was with him.
“Oh my. Huo Yunting, have a look. Junyu brought a rather handsome cla.s.smate home, he-” And her world turned dark as Huo Yunting covered her eyes.
“Lu Zhaoyang, have I told you this before? Don’t you ever check out any other man than me.”
“…” Lu Zhaoyang slightly broke his grip and peeked at Yan Sinian through the gap. There was something that impressed her. And trust her, she had seen enough men to tell if he was a decent man. Huo Yunting, Huo Chen, Huo Junyu and Huo Xu—everyone in the Huo series was the extraordinary that exuded an otherworldly pheromone which no one could compel—except for this man.
Yan Sinian was even mysterious in her eyes. Huo Yunting decided to check the man out and there their gazes intersected. There were sparks as Yan Sinian returned the alpha with a gentle smile.
Lu Zhaoyang noticed the exchange as she watched Huo Yunting withdrawing his hideous gaze to speak with her again, “Let’s talk about Huo Run.” He raised his brows and rubbed his eyes with his index finger as he was convinced by the untamed humbleness in that man yet he could not feel a single bit of hostility from him.
“Hmm?”
“If you are worried about Huo Run’s new boyfriend, I can investigate on him for you,” suggested Huo Yunting.
“It’s okay, dear.” Lu Zhaoyang shook her head.
Huo Run was not their biological daughter after all. They could not have much opinion on her life. She might be offended. It was normal for a girl of her age to date someone in today’s standard too.
“Let’s just stay calm and watch from the side at the moment. If that boy’s motive seems ulterior, we will stop her immediately.”
“Okay…” Huo Yunting shrugged.
“Yeah,” she approvingly replied.
Well, I might have said ‘Yeah’ but I still retain my skepticism towards this Mo Ning boy.
That’s what a mother is. I guess.
Huo Run might not be my biological daughter but she’s still raised by me for the past 18 years. I mean, which mother can be at ease when her daughter was suddenly kidnapped by a young man that came out of nowhere as she finally went through adulthood?
