Capítulo 1096: Chapter 2
Huo Shiqian never expected that upon returning to the Bao Mansion, such a huge surprise awaited him.
Soon, Huo Shiqian’s car arrived ho, and he got out.
“Has anyone visited today?” As he entered, Huo Shiqian casually asked the guard at the door.
“Yes, soone did co…” The guard looked a bit tense and said, “Yes, soone ca.”
Seeing the guard’s expression, Huo Shiqian thought of sothing, furrowed his brow slightly, and asked, “What, another unexpected guest?”
“Huh?” The guard was montarily stunned, then quickly shook his head like a rattle-drum and said, “No, not the Lady and Miss Liu!”
Although it was confird that it wasn’t “the Lady and Miss Liu,” the guard didn’t say who exactly had co.
After all, Xia Chuyi, who was currently inside the house, had instructed the guard not to tell anyone that she had arrived.
Huo Shiqian didn’t suspect anything, relaxed his brow slightly, and said, “Rember my words, the owners of the Bao Mansion, my uncle and aunt, myself, and Miss Ou Jiao.”
“As for others, without my permission, no one else is allowed to enter.” Huo Shiqian’s expression was very stern,
“Yes!” The guard stood at attention and saluted, saying loudly, “I will rember the chief’s instructions!”
Hearing the guard so loud, Huo Shiqian furrowed his brow again slightly and said, “No need to be so loud.”
“These things aren’t about what you say, they’re about what you do.” Huo Shiqian said seriously.
“Yes!” This ti, the guard lowered his voice, sneaked a glance inside the house, and thought: anyway, that shout just now had already served its purpose to alert them.
Inside the house, Xia Chuyi heard the commotion outside and couldn’t help but smile broadly.
Her Brother Shi Qian was back ho!
Xia Chuyi quietly hid behind the door.
Then, she listened as Huo Shiqian’s footsteps gradually approached.
Who knew that when the footsteps reached the doorway, they suddenly stopped.
Xia Chuyi held her breath and waited for a long ti, but there was no reaction from outside.
Huh, where did he go? Xia Chuyi wondered.
Xia Chuyi simply opened the door to see what was going on.
“Huo…” Before she could finish saying “Shiqian,” Xia Chuyi was suddenly grabbed with an arm lock, her neck held.
The speed was as fast as a thunderbolt.
“Chuyi?” Huo Shiqian exclaid in surprise, and released Xia Chuyi even faster.
“You’ve returned ho?” Huo Shiqian was frozen, his face flooded with emotions of astonishnt, delight, excitent, and disbelief.
It must be said, it was Xia Chuyi’s first ti seeing such a wealth of expressions on Huo Shiqian’s face.
She imdiately forgot the pain in her neck and laughed, “Yes, I… you… cough cough.”
Xia Chuyi, having just been grabbed by Huo Shiqian’s neck, could only manage a series of coughs as she tried to speak.
Seeing her like this, all the surprise and disbelief instantly vanished.
“Chuyi, are you okay?” Huo Shiqian gently reached for Xia Chuyi’s throat, his eyes full of distress and guilt.
“I’m sorry.” Huo Shiqian said, deeply regretful.
“Cough cough… no, no need to apologize.” Xia Chuyi finally found her voice and said to him, “It’s my fault, I ant to surprise you.”
Surprise?
Huo Shiqian chuckled bitterly.
If he had exerted a bit more force, it would’ve been a fright.
Luckily, he “held back” and didn’t go all out.
“You.” Huo Shiqian shook his head, opened his arms, and embraced her, saying, “Welco back ho.”
