Ning Meng glanced at the leather shoe in her hand and tossed it on the ground .
After seeing her father putting it back on, Ning Meng looked at her hand in a disgusted manner .
Dad, do you have stinky feet?”
Immediately, Ning Meng ran to the bathroom and washed her hands with soap until there were lots of suds . At that moment, she could not help but shake in fear when she thought about Huo Beichen’s intimidating anger .
Was Huo Beichen going to peel her skin off because of the hug?
Ning Meng let out a sigh and walked out of the bathroom after drying her hands .
“Dad, is it possible to keep what just happened from Huo Beichen?” asked a wishful Ning Meng .
Right after Ning Meng came up with the question, her cellphone rang . She looked at it, ignoring the call entirely . However, the person calling freaked her so out much that she almost tossed her cellphone away!
“Huo Beichen?” asked Ning Wentao .
“Is it better that I miss his call?”
“Sure, you can do that but prepare to die a horrible death!”
After mustering up enough courage, Ning Meng pressed the button to answer his call .
“Come home!” ordered Huo Beichen in a deep voice .
Huo Beichen immediately hung up the call .

“Dad, what should I do now?” asked Ning Meng while hanging on Ning Wentao’s sleeve, on the verge of tears .
“Should I just die now and reincarnate into another person?”
“Don’t worry . Meng Meng . Just go handle him first . I will come to rescue you later!” said Ning Wentao while pushing her out of the door . Such was the reassurance a father should really give his daughter .
At a crucial moment like this, she felt like her father was not reliable at all .
Back in the villa .
Ning Meng parked her car outside and opened the door to the villa as gently as possible . She wanted to check out the villa first .
There was nobody on the sofa and also in the dining area .
Ning Meng proceeded to the backyard . Immediately, Little Tiantian jumped at her to welcome her! Still, she did not manage to find Huo Beichen . She then turned around and looked up . Huo Beichen was standing at his study room’s balcony, holding a cup and staring at her like a statue .
Ning Meng was so scared she almost fell to the ground when she realized that Huo Beichen was silently looking at her .
“Hi…”
Ning Meng mustered enough courage to wave a smile at him . Once again, Huo Beichen did not say a single word . He still had his eyes glued on Ning Meng as he sipped the tea in his cup .
“What tea are you drinking?” asked Ning Meng .
Huo Beichen looked at his cup of tea once again .
Ning Meng knew that he was not a talkative person . Two days ago, she had noticed the tea on his table when she helped him to tend to his wound .
“This must be Longjing Tea, right? Only Longjing from Westlake can match with your temperament! The tea’s bitterness symbolizes your maturity . The more you taste it, the better you feel . ”
“Hubby, can you please talk to me? If you talk more, I will be able to appreciate you in a better way . ”
“Come up . ”
Seeing that Ning Meng was about to talk more, he could not help but ask her to go to her study room . She moved her legs unconsciously, entered the villa, and walked to his study room . Upon pushing the study room’s door open, she was overcome with fear as she walked in .
