Chapter 75: By That

Chapter 75

Lu Zheng had always been most worried about Huo Shao Ting over the past few years. Now that he was willing to get married, so many messy things had happened.

The couple had finally made some progress in their relationship, but now it was ruined all of a sudden.

Lu Zheng barely swallowed the anger rising in her throat. After looking around for a few seconds, she grabbed the flowers on the table and fiercely whipped Huo ShaoJie's butt, who was sleeping on the sofa like a dead pig!

"I don't watch over you for a few days and you wreck everything already! You really think I can't deal with you anymore, don't you?!"

Lu Zheng was absolutely furious. Both of them had made her anxious and sleepless. Usually gentle with others, her attack was vicious this time!

Huo MeiShu, Mrs. Wang and Li Shu were all terribly frightened, watching Lu Zheng whip the flowers around the room. Their hearts jerked with each lash!

"Mom! Mom, don't be angry, calm down, calm down!"

Huo MeiShu was so scared her face turned pale. She really hadn't expected such a fierce side from gentle Mother Lu. Seeing Huo ShaoJie's snake-like waist from the whipping, she quickly stepped forward to stop it.

Second brother was really miserable tonight...

Mrs. Wang and Li Shu also reacted and helped pull Lu Zheng away.

Still panting from anger, Lu Zheng pointed at Huo ShaoJie, sleeping like a pig, and ordered Li Shu: "Li Shu, pack up his luggage and let him stay at a hotel! Nothing but trouble since coming back! This damned kid is going to anger me to death!"

With that, she threw the tattered flower stems on Huo ShaoJie.

Huo MeiShu was terrified. If she had known Mother Lu was so fierce, she would have died before saying anything!

"Mom, let's calm down, okay? Anger causes wrinkles. Won't be beautiful anymore..." She hurriedly led Lu Zheng upstairs, signaling Mrs. Wang and Li Shu to take care of it quickly.

She was also afraid of this second brother now. But his new drama was about to start soon too, so he wouldn't be home much longer. Staying at a hotel was safer than facing eldest brother and old mom's combined assault at home.

Li Shu quickly followed orders, going upstairs to pack Huo ShaoJie's things. He and Mrs. Wang half dragged, half carried him out to the car to take him to a hotel.

...

Rong Dai had slept soundly last night and woke up naturally at dawn. Opening her eyes, she saw Huo Shao Ting sleeping beside her, making her heart beat erratically again.

She studied the man's face. He wasn't as bewitching as the Emperor, but still very pleasing to the eye and a rare beauty.

"Like what you see?" Huo Shao Ting opened his eyes when she wasn't paying attention, and asked in a mellow, magnetic voice.

"Mistress, you and the young master should eat. The Madam and young miss may sleep in a bit longer."

Mrs. Wang told her. Rong Dai could only nod.

"Don't you need to go to the company today?" Seeing that Huo Shao Ting didn't seem ready for work after breakfast, Rong Dai asked.

"It's Sunday today. I'll go with you to see Uncle Jiang." Huo Shao Ting said lightly and picked her up again.

Rong Dai no longer struggled. Hearing this, her heart blossomed joyfully.

He was the head of a company. How could he have days off? He was just accompanying her to see Elder Jiang. She understood the man's thoughtfulness.

In the car, the couple's hands unconsciously intertwined.

At this time, Huo ShaoJie, "abandoned by the family" last night, lazily woke up in the hotel. The stinging pain in his lower back and butt made him suck in a breath.

Seeing this wasn't his room when he came to, he panicked and quickly threw off the covers to check himself. Instant relief not finding anything wrong.

But what was with the pain in his butt?

Twisting to look back, seeing faint red welts, his face darkened in fury!

Who the hell dared whip his butt?!

Huo ShaoJie grabbed his phone and quickly called Huo MeiShu.

He remembered offending eldest brother last night, ruining his business, then drinking two bottles of red wine. After that, he didn't remember anything.

Just what had he experienced last night? The injuries made him think in certain directions, instantly breaking out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

"Hello..." Huo MeiShu was still half asleep, having spent a long time coaxing old mom last night. Drowsy now.

"MeiShu, last night I...last night did I..." Huo ShaoJie stuttered, too nervous to even get out a complete sentence.

"Second brother, what is it..."

"MeiShu, tell me, last night did I...do anything really bad? Was I violated by someone?"

Huo ShaoJie was anxious and annoyed. If he ever found out who did this, he would flip their roof!
