Chapter 478
“Owww…” Lu Zhaoyang moaned as she rubbed her belly .
I must finish this act or Xiang Jinxi would know I was faking it the whole time…
Both of them got into the elevator . Hearing the pulley graunching from above the elevator, Xiang Jinxi lowered his head and observed the lady next to him whimpering .
“Still hurts?”
“Y-yeah—Mhmm…” She forced her response concisely .
The next moment Lu Zhaoyang’s sight went up as Xiang Jinxi lifted her like a princess in his embrace, thinking that it would hasten their way to the hospital, although it scared Lu Zhaoyang so much she almost screamed .
Geez, Murphy’s law, guys . I wouldn’t be surprised if I saw Huo Yunt-
And there she saw him . Huo Yunting, by the elevator .
Huo Yunting’s relaxed brows were immediately furrowed upon seeing the two of them as the elevator opened . “Ow…” The frown was more serious when he heard Zhaoyang .
Okay, what hurts? What did both of them do?
Lu Zhaoyang closed her eyes, pretending that she did not see her man yet she could feel an impulsive energy brewing like a heat wave from the outside .
She opened her eyes, turned her head and saw Huo Yunting . She reached out her hand without hesitation .
She mumbled, “Big brother…”
“Ah . If it’s a sister of President Huo, I’ll let President Huo take over then,” said Xiang Jinxi, handing the woman over to Huo Yunting as he stepped out of the elevator .
Huo Yunting held her in his embrace as his eyes fixed upon her squeezed expression, his nose knotted by the stench of alcohol coming from her breath . He turned away and coldly informed his followers, “Enjoy the night yourselves . ”

He left without a single word for Xiang Jinxi…
The night was chilly as the wind sliced through them when the glass door opened . Lu Zhaoyang was calm staying inside Huo Yunting’s embrace, like a baby in a cradle . The Rolls-Royce zoomed away after they both fastened their seat belts . She turned her head to Huo Yunting, “I was faking it—Sorry for making you missing the dinner . I don’t want to drink so much upstairs—So—I…”
“Yeah . ”
The monosyllabic response was unexpected as Lu Zhaoyang blinked her eyes, “You saw through it?”
“Yeah,” muttered Huo Yunting, giving his woman a glimpse . He knew more than anybody else in this world, the actual expression his woman would make when in pain .
And that cheap acting skill did not fool him a couple minutes ago .
“Well—You missed your dinner, so—wanna have food together?” Said Zhaoyang, embarrassed since she was the one who caused this after all .

“No, thanks . ”
“Okay…” She looked through the window and checked out their location, “Well, you can drop me here . I’ll call an Uber . ” There was no response from him . The car did not stop either as they drove directly back to the little quiet alley where Zhaoyang’s apartment was located .
The car was halted as Huo Yunting rested his arms over the steering, “Did you do anything sorry to me tonight?”
“No . ” Zhaoyang knew her man meant the pills, “You are a walking period counter, I trust you . ”
“Hah . What are you waiting for then? You want me to carry you upstairs?” It was Zhaoyang’s obedience that calmed Huo Yunting down a little .
“Well, I’ll head upstairs but you must remember to take food before drinking . No beers and wine till you have a filled stomach,” she ordered before leaving the ride .
Huo Yunting’s fingers fidgeted with the dangling car key plugged near the steering as he watched his woman leaving . He unplugged it and went after her .

He did not want incident last night to repeat so he decided to stay back for her .
Well, judging by the author’s mindset and how Huo Chen is nearby, he might probably ‘drop by’ tonight if I wasn’t here .
Dang, suddenly, I felt the need to bring her back home .
Zhaoyang slowed down her footsteps upon hearing the louder steps coming from behind at the narrow staircases . She held back and joined him to walk upstairs together when he caught up with her .
“So I forgot to ask you yesterday, has that Princess Morebucks visited you recently?”
“Ye Zhiyu, has she reconciled with Mu Xian?”
“By the way, I didn’t eat anything just now . I’m hungry, I’ll make some supper and I can make you some if you want . ”
The barrage of questions stunned Huo Yunting .
