Chapter 2271: One-Night Stand with Shen (55)

Shen You looked at Ye Bai.

She was really enjoying her meal without a care in the world. Doesn’t she know there’s no such thing as a free lunch?

But he wasn’t asking for too much, just her as a person.

He licked his lips, pondering. This time when Ye Bai goes back, it’s probably not going to be easy. If it were just Xiaojiu sick, her father could handle it. Is something else going on?

Thinking of Chu He made him feel slightly uneasy.

He looked over at Ye Bai.

Ye Bai was having a good meal but felt uncomfortable being stared at suddenly. She frowned and looked at Shen You, "Hurry up and eat, I need to go back and pack my things."

Shen You, "Are you going to bring Huo Xiaowu back?"

Ye Bai, "Oh right, I need to bring Xiaoqi too, I forgot."

She sat there and called Huo Jinnan.

Huo Jinnan answered, "What’s up?"

Ye Bai paused, then spoke softly, "I’ll be over at your place at two to take Xiaoqi."

Take Xiaoqi!

Hearing these three words, Huo Jinnan sat there, looked at Xiaoqi playing to the side, and stayed silent for a long time.

Ye Bai hearing this, knew Huo Jinnan was unwilling, "You promised me."

Huo Jinnan, "..."

Ye Bai, "You’re not going to back out, are you?"

Huo Jinnan sat there, holding his phone for a long time before speaking, "I won’t."

Ye Bai, "That’s good."

All the while, Shen You listened to their conversation and sent a WeChat message to Huo Jinnan, "Brother Huo, let Xiaowei go along too, to help keep an eye on Chu He for me."

After finishing the call with Ye Bai, Huo Jinnan saw the message from Shen You, glanced at it, and his expression improved significantly.

No wonder he’s such a smart man; he figured out Chu He likes Ye Bai in just a few days.

He replied, "Fine, but you need to handle Ye Bai quickly."

Shen You, "Okay, Brother Huo, I’ll do my best."

Huo Jinnan, "Succeed, and I’ll give you a villa for your wedding home."

Shen You, "..."

Surprisingly generous Brother Huo is, now he gets it, it’s for Xiaoqi’s sake?

To keep his daughter by his side!

No wonder he let Ye Bai stay with him before.

After chatting, Huo Jinnan went to the upstairs study to find Qin Huan working on a script.

Qin Huan was stuck in the plot, sitting there, biting her pen in thought, when Huo Jinnan came in.

She didn’t want to write anymore, put down her pen, walked up to Huo Jinnan, and noticed his expression, "What’s wrong?"

Huo Jinnan looked at Qin Huan, pinched her chin, lifted her face, and pressed a gentle kiss on her lips, "Ye Bai wants to take Xiaoqi away from Hong Kong."

Qin Huan paused, looked at Huo Jinnan but stayed silent for a long time.

Thinking back to when Ye Bai saved her and her son, and saved Huo Jinnan, she took a deep breath, and finally spoke, though her voice was very soft, "You don’t plan on going back on your word, do you?"

Huo Jinnan hugged Qin Huan tightly, "In a few days, we’ll go visit Ye Bai and see Xiaoqi."

Qin Huan smiled at Huo Jinnan, "Okay."

Huo Jinnan looked at Qin Huan, "Stay a few more days at Ye Bai’s."

Qin Huan looked at him, "You’re not planning to stay for a long while, are you?"

Huo Jinnan stayed silent, holding Qin Huan’s hand as they went downstairs.

He glanced at Xiaoqi who was playing with Xiaoliao and called, "Uncle Lu."

Uncle Lu came over quickly, "Sir."

Huo Jinnan looked at him, "Go to school, bring the young master back, and ask the teacher for a month off."

Uncle Lu, "Okay."

Huo Jinnan looked at Aunt Rong, "Go pack Xiaoqi and Huo Minhan’s bags."

Aunt Rong responded and went upstairs.

Huo Jinnan sat on the sofa, took Xiaoqi into his arms, looked at her features seriously, and kissed her forehead.
