Lu Xingzhi was a bit confused, looking at Huo Jincheng with a puzzled expression, "Why are you back? Did you forget sothing at ho?"
"Yes!" Huo Jincheng replied, he left sothing very important.
"Oh! Then go get it! I’m going back to my room." Lu Xingzhi was about to get up when Huo Jincheng pulled her back.
"Does it hurt?" he asked again.
His voice was filled with tenderness. His little girl was so beautiful, with such delicate skin, really like a mushroom, her little face was swollen like this.
Lu Xingzhi finally reacted, "No, it’s just a slap, it’s not a big deal."
Hearing Lu Xingzhi say this, Huo Jincheng got even angrier and felt more heartache.
He placed his hands on her shoulders, looking directly into her eyes, serious and earnest.
"Lu Xingzhi, you have family now. The Huo Family is your support, don’t feel indifferent. Rember, this is your ho. You cannot let others bully you. In Beijing, you can go anywhere you want. You can bully others, but no one can bully you. Understand?"
"Thank you." Lu Xingzhi said gratefully.
But what she didn’t understand was why Huo Jincheng was angry.
"I don’t want you to say thank you."
Huo Jincheng sighed, never mind, the young girl is still young.
"Uncle, don’t be angry." Although she didn’t understand why he was angry, Lu Xingzhi still spoke softly.
Her eyes were innocent and confused, and her voice was so gentle, miraculously calming Huo Jincheng’s anger.
"Alright, I’m not angry."
"Don’t bla Xixi, she was trying to protect ." Lu Xingzhi felt that Helian Xi was afraid of Huo Jincheng and didn’t want her to be scolded.
"You are the one who’s hurt, she has nothing wrong." Huo Jincheng was really upset, with her face like this, she’s still worrying about others.
"But that slap was supposed to land on her face. Being hit by her brother, it’s not just the face, it would hurt more deeply. Her parents would also feel heartache." Lu Xingzhi lowered her head, twisting her fingers, and said softly, "I’m different, I’m all alone. It’s not a big deal."
Lu Xingzhi could also feel that Helian Xi truly treated her as a friend. She had few friends, especially in Beijing where she didn’t know anyone. Therefore, she cherished them.
Huo Jincheng’s heart ached, he wasn’t unaware that Lu Xingzhi felt no sense of belonging here.
He also knew that Lu Xingzhi never expected to marry him.
This engagent was forced on her.
"You’re not alone, you have , I care for you. Understand?" Huo Jincheng touched her head, pulling her into his arms, "Zhi Zhi, I’m your fiancé, you can tell anything. Don’t think you’re not important, in my heart, you hold great weight."
Lu Xingzhi gave a sweet smile, truly enchanting, and said, "Why are you so good!"
Huo Jincheng also laughed, "I’m good, just stay near obediently. I won’t let anyone bully you, so you also can’t let anyone bully you. I’m your assurance. Understand?"
"I understand. The Huo Family is very powerful, no one dares to provoke them." Lu Xingzhi playfully blinked, "Right?"
Huo Jincheng’s eyes were as gentle as the evening breeze, lovingly teasing her nose, "You can think of it that way."
