Chapter 247: A Dangerous Man

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

He finally knew why Huo Yunshen only loved Jing Xi!

This woman was not as simple as she looked. She had a more wicked side underneath that kind face, and it was difficult to tell her gender as she had both the qualities of a man and a woman. How interesting, how intriguing.

However, Huo Jingtang would not do anything to her for the time being. After all, his goal was to acquire Xue Yating. He was the kind of person who would dedicate his life to his career and make his goals very clear.

He wanted to marry Xue Yating and make an alliance with the Xue family. He believed that it would help him inherit the Huo family business.

As for women, Huo Jingtang had never had a lack of them and they were like clothes to him. He could have as many of them as he wanted with a wave of a hand. He was not going to have his plans ruined just because of Jing Xi.

Huo Jingtang looked her up and down intently. Then he released her.

After she was freed, Xu Xiyan immediately moved away and kept a distance from Huo Jingtang, proceeding to explain.

“Vice president Huo, I really didn’t know that you and Miss Xue had a date here tonight. As for ruining your date, I really don’t know how it happened. But if Miss Xue likes you, I’m sure that no one else could win her over. Also, not to mention that I’m only just a woman!”

Xu Xiyan understood that Rome wasn’t built in a day, and so it was with the three feet ice wall built between them. If their misunderstandings and conflicts were accumulated over the span of six years, she was afraid that it would take more time to resolve.

No hurry, they should take it easy. She only needed to help them create more opportunities.

At least Xiao Yuqian did not leave today. This was a good sign.

Xu Xiyan and Wan Dou had livened up the atmosphere of the room and the dinner was at least tolerable. Xiao Yuqian and Ma Haodong were the same as before, drinking their own wine and not communicating with each other.

But this time, Xiao Yuqian, who was in a bad mood, finished half a bottle of red wine and collapsed onto the table.

At the end of the meal, everyone was ready to leave. Xu Xiyan wanted to help Xiao Yuqian up. “Wan Dou, help me lift her up!”

“Okay!”

Just as Wan Dou reached her arms out, Ma Haodong suddenly stood up in front of her, blocking her way, “Let me!”

Ma Haodong bent over a little, lifted Xiao Yuqian over his shoulders, and stood up. He was like the Greek god Hercules and easily walked out of the room with Xiao Yuqian on his shoulders.

Ma Haodong was clever tonight. He had not had too much wine, so he did not become drunk. Now that Xiao Yuqian was drunk, he could send her home himself.
