When Kang Wan heard this, her eyes widened. She said angrily, “Brother Huo! How can you do this to me? It’s getting dark. Is it safe for a young lady like me to wait for the car by the road?”
After a pause, considering that Huo Xuan might not accept this, she put on a wronged expression and continued, “Besides, I haven’t eaten yet, how can you…”
Before she could finish, Huo Xuan couldn’t stand it anymore. He had already expected Kang Wan’s reaction. He immediately opened the car door and signaled the girl to get out of the car with his eyes. He said coldly, “I’ve already given your aunt enough face. You better get out of the car obediently, or I don’t mind teaching the Kang family’s daughter well for them.”
When Kang Wan heard this, her tears fell uncontrollably. She sniffled and sobbed. “Brother Huo, how can you treat me like this? Sister Ying and I were childhood sweethearts of yours since we were young. Now that you have a fiancée, you don’t even care about me anymore…”
Huo Xuan frowned and couldn’t be bothered with Kang Wan. He raised his hand and casually took out a few pieces of money from his wallet and threw it on Kang Wan’s lap. He said coldly with a displeased expression, “If you don’t want to wait here, there’s a restaurant in front of this road. Go eat first. I’ll get the driver to pick you up from the restaurant.”
Seeing that Kang Wan was still sitting in the car, only bothered with crying and did not move forward, Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and could not help but say, “Aren’t you leaving? Are you still waiting for someone to invite you?”
When Kang Wan heard that Mo Zhu was going to chase her away, the anger and grievance in her heart had already rushed to her chest. She immediately shouted with a red face, “It’s fine if Brother Huo wants me to get out of the car, but what right do you have to chase me away! This is the Huo family’s car. You’re just Brother Huo’s fiancée and not the Huo family’s Young Madam. It’s not your place to interrupt when I’m talking to Brother Huo!”
Upon hearing Kang Wan curse her in such an exasperated manner, Mo Zhu calmly dug her ears. She was about to retort, but unexpectedly, before she could speak, the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated.
She looked down at the caller ID and pressed the answer button. A respectful male voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Ms. Mo, we’ve already arrived at the hotel.”
After saying this, the other party didn’t say anything else and waited quietly for the reply.
Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and knocked her fingers on the armrest beside the chair. She replied lightly, “Sure, we’ll be there in a while.”
After hanging up the phone, Mo Zhu turned her head and looked straight at Kang Wan, who was still crying non-stop in the back seat. She did not say anything else and directly opened the car door, grabbed the collar of the girl’s coat and neatly carried Kang Wan out of the car as if she was carrying something.
Since time was limited, there was no need to talk to this little girl.
After throwing Kang Wan to the side of the road, Mo Zhu got into the car under the young lady’s shocked gaze. Then, she calmly closed the door and instructed Uncle Zhang, who was in the driver’s seat, “Uncle Zhang, drive. Let’s go to Cloud City Hotel.”
Uncle Zhang, who had quietly parked his car by the side of the road and witnessed the entire scene, retracted his gaze in embarrassment. He immediately started the car and drove towards the destination that Mo Zhu had mentioned.
About half an hour later, the car stopped steadily at the entrance of Cloud City Hotel.
After instructing Uncle Zhang to wait outside, Mo Zhu brought Huo Xuan straight to the presidential suite on the top floor.
The door of the suite opened. The moment Gao Rong saw Mo Zhu, he welcomed her with a worried expression and said anxiously, “Ms. Mo, Second Uncle’s illness is getting worse. Please think of a way to save him.”
Mo Zhu nodded and replied indifferently, “Where’s Gao Qing? Bring me there.”
In just a week, Gao Qing’s condition had worsened. The last time Mo Zhu went to the Gao family to visit him, he could still sit up and chat with the girl. Now, he could only lie on the bed and rely on various precious tonics to extend his life.
Gao Rong brought Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu to a small room in the suite. Gao Qing was lying on the bed in a daze with a dark expression. When he saw Mo Zhu walk in, his eyes instantly lit up. He immediately raised his hand with difficulty, wanting Gao Rong to help him up and talk to Mo Zhu.
Seeing that Gao Qing’s movements were a little inconvenient, Mo Zhu quickly walked two steps and sat on the wooden chair in front of the bed. She said lightly, “Your health is not good, you don’t have to sit up. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
