Chapter 458: Throbbing

If they hadn’t walked very close, that tango wouldn’t have danced so intimately and tacitly.

Wen Ruan saw the danger brewing in Huo Hannian’s deep eyes and smiled.” He’s my professor and my master. Of course we’re close.””

Huo Hannian’s heart was on alert when he saw Wen Ruan’s eyes flash with admiration at the mention of Sam.

A year was neither long nor short.

Professor Sam had already quietly taken a place in her heart.

Huo Hannian pursed his lips tightly. He knew that if he continued to ask about her relationship with Sam, it might make her unhappy.

Before he saw Su Ruoxi’s true colors, he had hurt her heart.

Although he was still alive, there was actually a rift between the two of them.

It was not something that could be completely repaired in a short period of time.

As the old master had said, he needed patience to heal the scars in her heart.

“Ruan Ruan, Yuxiang is not my biological mother.”

Wen Ruan was surprised to hear him say that.

However, he immediately recalled what he had said in the small town. When he was brought to the island, Yu Xiang was also involved.

In fact, Wen Ruan could not figure out why Yu Xiang would be so cruel to her own son. What good would it do for her to leave a psychological scar on him?

So she wasn’t his biological daughter!

Huo Hannian told Wen Ruan about his true identity.

After learning that Yu Xiang had swapped him with the young master of the Sborne family, Wen Ruan suddenly felt enlightened.

So that was how it was!

However, what followed was an inexplicable sense of panic.

The Sborne family was mysterious and huge. Compared to the Huo family, they were even more prominent.

If he returned to the clan, would the two of them still be able to be together smoothly?

Then, she remembered that she was still angry at him. Why was she thinking so far ahead?

“Then congratulations, Young Lord Sborn.”

Hearing Wen Ruan’s words, Huo Hannian furrowed his brows.” I’ve never thought of leaving the capital, leaving you.”

Wen Ruan’s heart thumped.

She turned her face away and said angrily,” Who cares if you stay or not?”

Huo Hannian looked at the woman, who had become inexplicably cute when she said something she didn’t mean. He pinched her chin with his well-defined fingers.” Ruan Ruan, I thought I would never be able to kiss you again in this lifetime!””

Wen Ruan’s long eyelashes fluttered. Just as she was about to say something, he did not give her a chance to speak and kissed her directly.

Wen Ruan’s hands that were resting on his shoulders suddenly tightened. Her fingertips pressed tightly against her palms. She wanted to push him away several times, but his strength did not allow her to reject him.

Wen Ruan’s mind was buzzing.

The delicate skin on his jaw rubbed against the faint stubble on his firm jaw, which was a little prickly.

Her breath was filled with the familiar yet strange refreshing aura of the body, making her feel greedy and throbbing.

Wen Ruan knew that she should push him away, but she knew in her heart that she had been longing to be kissed by him for more than a year.

He was still standing right in front of her, not separated from her.

His breath, his temperature, it was so fresh and hot.

Wen Ruan’s nose turned sour and her eyes turned red uncontrollably.

Just as her emotions were churning, he suddenly let go of her.

His dark eyes looked at her deeply, as if he wanted to look into the depths of her heart.

Their eyes met.

This was the first time they had sized each other up so seriously since they had met.

He could still see the faint scar on his temple.

Her lips moved, wanting to say something, but he kissed her again.

This time, his kiss turned from domineering to gentle and tender.

Wen Ruan slowly closed his eyes and his hands that were on his shoulders slowly wrapped around his neck.

After an unknown period of time, a crisp ringtone rang out.

Wen Ruan’s phone rang.

She instantly woke up.

Thinking about how she had responded to him just now, her face instantly turned red as if it was on fire.

Wen Ruan took out her phone and saw that it was a call from Sam. Wen Ruan broke free from Huo Hannian’s embrace.

She walked to the side and picked up his call.

Huo Hannian leaned lazily against the sink, unable to hear what the person on the other end of the phone said. He only saw Wen Ruan say yes and hang up.

Wen Ruan turned around and looked at Huo Hannian.” I’m going back to the school’s laboratory to help Professor Sam with some medicinal data.”

Huo Hannian raised his eyebrows slightly.” Ruan Ruan, I just got back. Don’t you want to stay with me for a while?””

“I don’t want to.”

Huo Hannian reached out, wanting to pull Wen Ruan into his arms. She seemed to have expected his actions and dodged, her slender body moving to the door.

Before he walked towards her, she quickly pulled the door open.

Just as she was about to go out, she did not expect that there would be a few people lying at the door. When the door opened, the people lying at the door were about to fall.

Old Master Huo was leading the way. Wen Ruan’s heart skipped a beat and she quickly reached out to support him.

Faced with several pairs of eyes sizing her up, Wen Ruan’s face, which had finally faded away, blushed again.

Before they could say anything, she covered her face with both hands and left in embarrassment.

“Cousin, why aren’t you chasing after him?”

Huo Hannian came out of the bathroom and chased after Wen Ruan.

However, just as he walked out of the restaurant, his vision suddenly turned black, and his tall body swayed.

Luo Chen was quick to react and quickly caught Huo Hannian. Seeing that his face had turned pale, he asked worriedly,” Cousin, what’s wrong?””

Huo Hannian furrowed his eyebrows and held his head that was about to split open. He said in a hoarse voice,” Help me to the sofa.””

“Alright.”

Wen Ruan ran out of the Huo residence in one breath.

She walked to her car and couldn’t help but turn around to take a look.

Huo Hannian didn’t chase after her. She bit her lower lip angrily and got into the car. She turned the steering wheel and the BMW Mini sped away.

After sitting on the sofa for nearly half an hour, the pain in his head gradually subsided.

Old Master Huo and Huo Min sat opposite him with worried faces.” Hannian, are you alright? Do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup?”

Huo Hannian shook his head.” It’s fine.” Grandfather, Aunt, Luo Chenchen, I want to tell you all about what happened in the past year.”

Huo Hannian told them everything from the moment he was brought to the island. When he heard that Yu Xiang was involved, Old Master Huo and the others were filled with righteous indignation and disbelief.

“She’s simply not human. Is there a mother like that? No wonder she didn’t seem too sad when Hannian got into trouble. She even colluded with Huo Wei to murder the Huo family’s assets!”

Huo Min said with a livid expression.

Old Master Huo sighed repeatedly. He had probably never seen such a ruthless mother.

Huo Hannian leaned back against the sofa, his eyes dark.” In the past, I couldn’t understand why she treated me like that either. It wasn’t until two days ago that I finally understood the reason.”

Everyone in the living room looked at Huo Hannian.” What’s the reason? Because she has mental problems?”

“She’s not my biological mother.”
