Chapter 1438: Modified: Chapter 1435 Confirmation
A monk walked up to him: “Young Master Liu, the answers you seek can be found in the back mountain.”
Saying this, the monk turned and left.
Liu Zhe only caught a glimpse of the ordinary face, couldn’t even ask the na, and the monk disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Liu Zhe’s lips were tightly pressed together, his heart already confirming that the Liu family indeed wanted him to be with Miss Huo.
But why did it have to be Miss Huo? Would this bring misfortune to her?
Liu Zhe’s mind was filled with anger for the first ti, angry at his own uselessness. He quickly headed toward the back mountain, and the servant boy, seeing his bad mood, didn’t dare say anything unnecessary.
The back mountain of the Buddhist Light Temple was large. Liu Zhe, being a man, walked quickly. After circling the back mountain, he continued deeper into the mountains when a lightning bolt struck from the sky.
Dark clouds gathered, it seed it was going to rain.
“Ru Mo, go back and tell Miss Huo that we have news of Young Master Huo. Tell her not to worry and wait patiently at the temple. I’ll bring him back once I find him.”
“Young Master, but you are alone.” The servant boy was a bit worried.
Liu Zhe didn’t give him the opportunity to argue, forcing him to agree before heading into the mountains by himself.
Ru Mo stamped his feet but dared not disobey the order and quickly ran down the mountain.
Liu Zhe found Young Master Huo in a cave, saw Little Pudding sitting inside with his arms hugging his legs, looking fearful and uneasy. He walked over gently and asked softly, “Are you Haoer?”
“Who, who are you?” Huo Hao blinked his eyes and asked fearfully, “Where is Master Ru Yun? He said let wait here for a mont.”
Liu Zhe: “I am a friend of your elder cousin Miss Huo, here to help find you. Your family is worried about you. Don’t be afraid, I’ll take you back now.”
Suddenly there was a loud boom.
Not only was there thunder, but heavy rain followed imdiately.
Liu Zhe frowned, his first reaction was, did Duke Zheng have a weather predictor by his side?
“Wah, I’m scared…” Huo Hao, being young, started crying out loud when he heard the thunder.
Liu Zhe had to sit closer to comfort him, worried that if they delayed too long, it would make Miss Huo worry more. After calming Huo Hao down, he was still thinking about how to descend the mountain in the rain without affecting the child’s health.
Then he heard sounds through the rain outside the cave.
“Ah Hao…”
“Young Master…”
“Young Master Hao, where are you…”
Liu Zhe stood up quickly and walked outside. Standing at the cave entrance, he shouted, “Ru Mo, we are here…”
His powerful voice cut through the rain and reached the ears of several people.
Soon, he saw Huo Hongyan and her group rush over from the rainstorm, looking disheveled.
Liu Zhe hurried forward, not minding getting wet, and protected Huo Hongyan into the cave. In the next second, Huo Hongyan had an extra coat on her body.
It was Liu Zhe’s outer garnt; now he only had his inner clothes left on.
Huo Hongyan felt a pain in her heart, her eyes red and filled with rainwater, making her eyes look tearful. Her slightly reddened lips trembled.
Liu Zhe never thought he would face Miss Huo’s fragile side so directly. He felt an unbearable bitterness in his chest, instinctively softening his voice: “Miss Huo, don’t be afraid, Xiao Hao is fine. You organize your clothes first, don’t catch a cold. There is firewood in the cave, I’ll light a fire.”
Huo Hongyan looked at that familiar smile.
She forcefully closed her eyes, regaining her rationality: “Thank you, Young Master Liu.”
She then squatted down to check on Huo Hao, and seeing he was okay, she felt relieved.
