"Ke Er, is that you? I missed you so much." Only Ke'er had this kind of scent, the kind that caused Lu Yunqi to be lost and unable to stop. Although he had already drunk too much, the instincts of a man was still there. As if kissing wasn't enough, he began to undress. The softness of his body was too beautiful. However, the girl seemed to be wearing more clothes. He could not pull it off no matter how he tried. As he panted, he suddenly stopped moving.
"Lu Yunqi?" Huo Ke felt the head on her chest, but didn't move. cried tentatively.
"Lu Yunqi?" After a long silence, Huo Ke finally dared to move her body. She raised her head and saw that Lu Yunqi was already asleep.
"…" It was fortunate that she shell asleep, otherwise how would she face such an awkward situation tomorrow? Huo Ke blushed when she thought about how she actually stole a kiss from this man. If he knew, he wouldn't have let me take responsibility, right? She quickly carried Lu Yunqi to bed and covered her with the blanket. She ran out of the room like she was escaping. There were still two bodyguards standing at the entrance. Huo Ke also awkwardly coughed a few times before returning to his room.
A sleepless night. It was dawn when Hawke finally fell asleep.
When Huo Ke woke up, it was already afternoon.
After waking up, he was probably hungry for too long, so he didn't have any appetite to eat. He only ate a little bit.
"Where's my son?" He didn't even look at him. It was always a bit unsettling when his son wasn't around.
"Miss Huo, Young Master Huo is currently in the study of Old Master Huo." the waiting servant replied.
"Why should I go to the study?" Huo Ke didn't understand. Did Master Huo care too much about her son? Why did she keep bringing Huo Zilin along?
"I don't know either. Miss Huo, can you go up and take a look yourself? It's on the second floor. I can show you up there. " Housekeeper Huo had told her that this Miss Huo was the granddaughter of Master Huo, the second master of this house. She must be served well.
"Mm, lead the way." Huo Ke felt that the attitude of the servant wasn't bad. She gave the servant a kind smile, indicating for her to lead the way.
"Yes, Miss Huo, please follow me."
"Knock."
"Master Huo, Miss Huo is here."
"Come in." An aged voice came from inside the room. He could tell that it was Master Huo's.
The servant closed the study door behind him and left.
The study was very large, and was divided into three parts. One was surrounded by bookshelves, and on all four sides were bookshelves that were three meters tall. The top of the bookshelves were already filled with books, and the categories were arranged neatly. It could be seen that the owner of this study was a bookworm.
On the other side of the picture was an antique calligraphy and painting. It was filled to the brim with precious treasures, all of them priceless. Many of the treasures had long since disappeared from the market. Unexpectedly, they were all placed here. Even though they appeared to be placed here casually, it was possible to tell that each item had its own specific location.
Moreover, it was the place where Master Huo was sitting. It was an ancient looking desk. The ink painting of the Dao of Painting was placed on it. The windows faced the sea, and the sun shone in just enough to make everything in the room look just right.
Huo Ke looked around the study, but didn't see where Old Master Huo and Huo Zilin were. Instead, she began to casually walk around to search for them.
A moment later, Hawke saw that the austere old man was sitting like a little urchin with Hawking under the huge desk on the floor, playing with something.
The laughter of an old man and a young woman echoed in Hawke's ears. It was as if they were infecting her. His nervous expression slowly relaxed as the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Yeah, grandfather, I won. You lost. You have to obediently receive your punishment. " Huo Ke couldn't bear to disturb such a beautiful girl, so she just quietly stood to the side and watched. Perhaps it was because this grandfather-grandson duo was too engrossed with the checkers in their hands that they also left Huo Ke to the side.
"Alright, alright, alright. Grandfather has lost. Grandfather is being punished. How does that child Lin want to punish Grandfather?" Although he lost, the old man still hugged Huo Zi Lin with a smile on his face, and even used his forehead to touch Huo Zi Lin's small head like a bull fighting against a bull. This made Huo Zilin giggle.
"Grandpa, I want to ride a big horse. In the TV, any child can ride a big horse." Grandpa, I want to ride a big horse.
Huo Zilin spoke like a child, his small hands gesturing adorably.
"You can't ride a big horse, Zilin can change the punishment method." Favorite must have a sense of proportion. He was extremely fond of his little great-grandson, but he couldn't ride on the road either.
"Zi Lin, don't mess around." Huo Ke stopped her in time.
"Mom, Zi Lin be good, I'm not messing around. Zi Lin is playing with grandpa." A disgruntled pout protested.
"Zi Lin, you play on your own for a while, grandfather and mother have something to say." You go and think about how you're going to punish grandpa later, okay? " Seeing the unhappy appearance of the little great-grandson can make the old man's heart ache.
"Mhmm, alright then. Children cannot be involved in adult matters. Zilin knows. " As he spoke, he obediently went to the side of the track to play. The study room was so big that a child looking for something to play with could be considered a novelty.
"Ke Er, come sit here." The old man walked to a coffee table and motioned for Hawke to follow.
"Grandfather wants to take you overseas for treatment. I already gave you a night to think about it yesterday, I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer." He slowly stewed some good new tea and poured a small cup for Hawke.
"Thank you for your kind intentions. I've decided to stay in the country. I have no plans yet." Even though he was grateful, he exuded a deep sense of indifference.
The answer was within his expectations. However, it caused the old man's originally good mood to vanish. However, he did not reveal it and continued, "Are you blaming me for not going to look for you after so many years?" The old man sighed and slowly spoke.
"In the past, your mother died when you were born. Grandfather was still overseas. Two days later, he received the news. At that time, Grandfather lost his beloved daughter. Your mother has always been kind to me since she was young. I hold her in my hands and love her so much that I don't want to throw her away when I hold her in my hands. If it was placed on the ground, I would be afraid of breaking into pieces. Even when she was young, a single tear could make my heart ache. My own daughter, how could I not love her? You look very much like your mother, and very much like her, especially your eyes, which are exactly the same. " The old man's thoughts seemed to be pulled back to a long time ago.
Huo Ke quietly listened to this old man, who called himself Grandfather, recount his thoughts, but no one knew. This was something she desperately wanted to know. No one wants to be an orphan. Every day and every night, besides revenge, there was only one person who troubled him.
