Jing Xi suddenly felt someone holding her legs. She looked down and found it was Huo Yunshen. “Honey, you’re back. I’m looking for a dress.”
“Get down. Let me help you.”
Huo Yunshen got her down and placed her by the bed. Then he asked, “What dress are you looking for? Tell me. I’ll get it.”
“It’s a turquoise dress. I’ve only worn it once but could not find it now. I want to wear it tomorrow.”
“OK.”
Huo Yunshen did not need to step on a bench. He reached out and found what she wanted with barely any effort. “Is this the one?”
“Yes, yes.”
Having gotten her dress, Jing Xi asked, “Did you see them downstairs?”
“Yes. Why did you let them in again?”
Huo Yunshen did not want to see Mo Yutian. He could never get rid of his hostility toward him.
“Oh, let me tell you why. I took him and mother to the hospital for a match selection. Then something happened when we went to pick up Ying Bao afterward.”
“What happened?” Huo Yunshen got anxious.
“When I was going across the street with Ying Bao, she was almost hit by a car. I was almost scared to death. Fortunately, Mo Yutian came and saved Ying Bao. That was why I asked them to stay for dinner. He was injured.”
Jing Xi explained it in detail so that he would not have any misunderstanding.
“Fine. For my daughter’s sake.”
Huo Yunshen was no longer bothered after hearing what had happened. Instead, he felt sorry. “It’s my fault. If I had not gone across the border today, I would have been able to come to pick her up. I’m so worried about you.”
“We’re fine. We’ll be more careful next time. How is everything over there?”
“Good. It went well.”
Huo Yunshen had visited several major places in the Dragon Kingdom, accompanied by Qi Zhengming and a few others.
“That’s good. Dinner is almost ready. Let’s get downstairs.”
Jing Xi held his arm and they went downstairs together.
Sitting at the same table again, Huo Yunshen tried hard to treat that person as natural as possible, just like he was a regular guest.
But he could never extend a warm welcome and have a good chat with him.
During dinner, Ying Bao interacted with her Uncle Dragonbeard frequently. Seeing his daughter offering Mo Yutian her food, Huo Yunshen could not help feeling jealous.
Before Mo Yutian had lost his mind, he tried whatever he could to take away his wife. Whereas now he was coming after his daughter.
How annoying!
He seriously did not want his daughter to get too close to Mo Yutian. So Huo Yunshen found a good excuse. “Cherry, I’ve got good news to tell you. Do you want to hear it?”
“What is it?”
“Your brother Feimo is coming tomorrow. Would you like to go pick him up at the airport?”
Ying Bao was super excited. “Seriously? Is brother Feimo coming? I’m definitely going!”
“OK. Then let’s go together tomorrow morning. But you have to go to bed earlier today.”
“No problem, daddy.”
In order to get ready for tomorrow morning, Ying Bao finished her dinner more quickly. She wanted to have a good sleep and get up as early as she could tomorrow.
The dinner was finally finished. Su Wanqin proposed to take Mo Yutian back to his apartment. Huo Yunshen and his wife did not ask them to stay further.
They were thinking of the same thing – how could their daughter be so nice to Mo Yutian?
