Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain 326

If it was last year, she would be brave enough to nod, saying yes, but now, even if someone filled her with courage, she still wouldn’t dare.

Huo Damei didn’t even bother with the mess on her face before fleeing away.

And all the other members of the Huo family who came with her also quickly ran away like they’d just seen a ghost. The old woman’s cane fell, and she froze in place, deliberating over whether or not to pick it up.

Zhong Yuhuan felt angry and amused at this scene.

What kind of people are they?!

Huo Chengming opened the car door, bringing Zhong Yuhuan over by the waist, and putting her inside the car.

Her bodyguards were startled and wanted to follow them in.

Zhong Yuhuan looked back, saying, “You guys go straight back to the Zhong villa.”

“Yes.”

Zhong Yuhuan lowered her head and buckled her seatbelt, then closed the car window.

Huo Chengming soon got into the driver’s seat. His expression was still a bit unpleasant and tapped on the steering wheel with his fingers, sullenly saying, “You heard what she said.” Huo Chengming swallowed. “Do you think that I’m too cruel?”

He never wanted her to know just what he had secretly done, not wanting his dark side to be exposed to her. However, ever since Turkey, Huo Chengming had felt a strong urge to smash the broken pot and tell her everything.

Now, he found whatever he said to be awkward, his tone carrying a strong feeling of “Hurry up and refute me” and “Hurry up and say no.”

Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t help but laugh.

Huo Chengming’s expression became worse. “… Why are you laughing?”

Zhong Yuhuan helplessly looked at him. “Isn’t revenge a very normal thing? Why would I blame you for being too harsh with them? Only you have the power to forgive them. Other people don’t have the right to tell you what to do.”

Huo Chengming’s expression immediately became much better and he said in a deep voice, “There is someone who does - you. I’ll do whatever you say.”

Zhong Yuhuan’s face instantly turned red.

She turned her head to look out the window.

What’s happening? Has Huo Chengming studied with Li Jinyuan recently? It’s getting harder and harder to ignore his words.

Huo Chengming started the car, coldly saying, “I thought they’d smarten up, not expecting that they would dare to approach you.”

“Probably because I’m a girl, so I’m easily embarrassed and bullied.”

Huo Chengming coldly sneered. “Someone’s definitely orchestrating from behind, or else they wouldn’t understand… the closeness of our relationship and known to approach you.” When Huo Chengming brought up their closeness, he deliberately made it vague, seeming like they had a special relationship.

Zhong Yuhuan frowned.

Could it be Ling Lan?

Does she have this ability?

“You don’t have to bother with this. I’ll look into it,” Huo Chengming said.

Zhong Yuhuan nodded.

Huo Chengming quickly followed up and asked, “Then, have you made a decision?”

This question was completely different from the previous topic.

Zhong Yuhuan immediately choked on her saliva. “… W-What?”

Huo Chengming calmly said, “It’s fine if you haven’t.”

Zhong Yuhuan unconsciously pinched her finger, her breathing becoming irregular.

Huo Chengming asked another question, “Then can I be like last time and…”

“Hm.”

“Kiss you?”

Zhong Yuhuan’s head instantly became a large tomato.

No…

If you want to kiss, then just kiss!

Why are you asking for permission?

Zhong Yuhuan used her hand to support her forehead, her pulse accelerating and unable to say a word.

Huo Chengming suddenly stepped on the breaks. Placing one hand on Zhong Yuhuan’s seat to support himself, he leaned over, and kissed her.

Last time, he had kissed her fiercely due to his anger, so his actions were a bit violent.

This time, Huo Chengming was deliberately gentler, wanting to leave a better impression on Zhong Yuhuan.

But when he felt her soft lips, he subconsciously grasped her tightly and strongly sucked on her lips—

Then someone knocked on the car window.

Huo Chengming frowned and let go of Zhong Yuhuan, turning to lower the window.

A traffic police officer stood outside. “Hello. Illegal parking is a fine of 150 RMB.”

Huo Chengming happily paid the money.

Zhong Yuhuan wanted to hide herself under the seat.

She covered her face, not speaking a word to Huo Chengming for the rest of the car ride.

But Huo Chengming’s mood was great and frequently talked to her.

Seeing that the car was almost at the villa, Zhong Yuhuan rolled her eyes and asked, “Your aunt is called Huo Damei, so were you called Huo Xiaogou when you were young?”

Huo Chengming was overflowing with happiness. He stopped the car and replied, “… Even if I was, that little dog* is still your dog.”

*‘Xiaogou’ means ‘little dog.’

Zhong Yuhuan buried her face in her palms.

Li Jinyuan walked out of the villa and knocked on the window, interrupting the conversation of the two in the car.
