Chapter 805: No Privacy

Editor: Henyee Translations

Huo Xiuyuan was even waiting at the agreed location for Kelly five minutes early.

Kelly clearly liked his punctuality, so her expression became much more cheerful when she got into the car. She even shared what she had seen and heard outside today.

“I saw so much delicious food and fun things today. I even bought a few gifts to bring back for my father…”

She had clearly been here for a few days, but Kelly still found many things very novel and interesting.

In the end, there was no pressure on her body, and she didn’t need to do anything this time. Therefore, Kelly, who was mainly in charge of eating, drinking, and playing, was simply liberated without her father’s control these few days.

However, it was a pity that Kelly didn’t encounter the big sister who helped her last time.

Kelly, who was holding an ice cream in her hand, couldn’t help but feel a little empty. Thinking back to her encounter with the other party, she seemed to feel that it was not long ago, but Kelly liked that person very much. However, she was so happy at that time that she forgot to ask for her contact information.

“Then are we going out to eat or go home tonight?”

After Huo Xiuyuan brought her to the front pa.s.senger seat, he thoughtfully and gently arranged everything. Then, he turned the steering wheel and slowly accelerated the car to ask Kelly for her opinion.

Kelly glanced at the date. “I’m calling my father today. Have you forgotten?”

“Oh, it’s my fault. I’ve been too busy recently.” Huo Xiuyan slapped his forehead in frustration.

After he brought Kelly back to the country, they had to call Kelly’s father, who was far abroad, at a fixed time every week to report the recent situation. It was also to rea.s.sure him about their situation.

Actually, if he really wanted to obtain the latest news, the guards who followed the two of them behind their backs at all times were enough to report everything that Huo Xiuyuan and Kelly had done overseas.

However, this procedure was also to give Kelly’s father a chance to interact with Huo Xiuyuan. Although his daughter liked him, he would never let go of some uncontrollable factors.

“Then let’s prepare to go home. How about having some j.a.panese food tonight? I know a very good j.a.panese restaurant. I can call them and ask them to send it over.” Huo Xiuyuan’s tone was extremely gentle.

If Huo Ya, who had met him just now, heard this tone, her eyes would probably fall out.

However, Kelly was already used to it. She even raised willful requests and tastes, not feeling that there was anything wrong with her doing this.

Kelly had been doted on since she was young. Even after getting Huo Xiuyuan as her boyfriend, she had no intention of restraining herself. Instead, she was very carefree.

Huo Xiuyuan turned the steering wheel and focused on the road before saying nothing else.

The car suddenly fell silent as Kelly played with her cell phone. From time to time, she would jump out with one or two unprecedented words.

At the thought that he had to call Kelly’s father at dinner later, Huo Xiuyuan suddenly felt more pressured.

If it was said that he had no problem dealing with Kelly, but before Kelly’s father, he felt like he had nowhere to hide.

A man who had grown up in blood and violence had the intuition of a wild beast. When facing lies, he could acutely distinguish how sincere they were.

Therefore, Huo Xiuyuan always had a hard time dealing with the other party. It was better to say that his little tricks were completely seen through by the other party’s sharp wolf-like eyes.

As a result, every time he spoke to the other party, Huo Xiuyuan felt a lot of psychological pressure.

If he had to say it, Kelly and her father were simply not on the same level. The difference was like the distance between heaven and earth.

Just as he was thinking about what to say later, the two of them had already driven to their temporary residence in the country.

As Huo Xiuyuan didn’t want to be too ostentatious, only he, Kelly, and a few servants were living in the residence.

“Be careful when you get out of the car.”

After Huo Xiuyuan parked the car, he walked to the front pa.s.senger seat and opened the car door to help Kelly out slowly.

He couldn’t help but remind the other party with a few careful and gentle words, causing Kelly to smile.

After helping her out, Huo Xiuyuan turned around and went to the back seat. He took out the doc.u.ments he had just taken from Huo Ya and planned to bring them to his room.

He had yet to see the details and had only confirmed their authenticity.

“What is this?” Kelly saw his actions and couldn’t help but look at it curiously.

Huo Xiuyuan explained to her, “It’s just some complicated doc.u.ments from the company. If you’re interested, we’ll go in and tell you later.”

As soon as she heard that it’s some company doc.u.ments, Kelly immediately frowned and shook her head, her eyes filled with resistance.

She didn’t want to listen to those things. There were a lot of words piled up. There was the market, the stock price, and all kinds of a.n.a.lysis. Just looking at them gave Kelly a headache.

Huo Xiuyuan said that knowing that Kelly would have such a reaction, he only rubbed her hair and pulled her into the house.

After the two of them entered the room, Huo Xiuyuan’s phone suddenly rang.

He originally didn’t intend to answer it. After all, Kelly was beside him. However, after taking it out and looking at it, the caller’s name immediately changed his expression. Hence, he coaxed Kelly to go to the living room first.

“Baby, I’m going to take this call.”

After saying that, he placed the doc.u.ment on the coffee table and turned to pick up his phone to enter the study.

Kelly was not surprised. She just looked at the other party’s back view and then at the doc.u.ment. She couldn’t hold back her curiosity and reached out to take it.

However, the first thing she did when she took it was not to read the contents. Instead, she acutely smelled a perfume that definitely didn’t appear on Huo Xiuyuan.

Instinct told Kelly that this was a perfume that only girls would wear.

She frowned faintly and looked at the folder in her hand with some uncertainty. Then, she leaned closer and sniffed it gently. After identifying it, she realized that her guess was not wrong.

How could this be…?

The moment she sensed the perfume, Kelly directly denied her guess.

It was not that she trusted Huo Xiuyuan’s character, but in view of the current situation, she believed that he would definitely not look for anyone else behind her back.

The fragrance was not unpleasant. It had a sweet citrus scent and didn’t seem like the perfume a mature working woman would wear.

Kelly sniffed it uncertainly, then had a few guesses in her heart. In the end, when she saw the name of the Huo Corporation written on the doc.u.ment, she pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.

Her unhappiness was written all over her face.

But no one came to comfort her.

This was because Huo Xiuyuan was in the study at this moment. He stood in the room with a tense expression as he received the explosive news that Xu Dong had just thrown at him.

“What are you trying to say?”

“You’re saying that the East District that you and I worked so hard to obtain these two days is worthless now?”

Huo Xiuyuan couldn’t help but grit his teeth and ask. He didn’t believe the other party’s words at all, but he had no choice but to accept it.

This was because he knew that Xu Dong wouldn’t joke with him like this..
