Chapter 474 - 229. It turns out there was a quarrel..._3
Mu Jin Huan appeared at the corner of the second floor in casual clothes, his sharply defined handsome face as calm as usual, only his dark eyes were even dimmer than usual.His long legs crossed as he descended the stairs, followed by the servant who sensed the tension and went upstairs for reinforcements while Mr. Huo wasn’t watching.
Mu Jin Huan gave a faint glance at his friend, exuding a cold aura, and instructed the servant, "Take Jiu Jiu upstairs."
Before the servant could react, Nan Wan stood up from the sofa holding her son, "You guys chat, I’ll go check on Pea."
Just as she reached the stairs, Huo Yihan’s cold yet firm voice resonated in her ear, "Stop!"
Sitting on the sofa, Mu Jin Huan’s face darkened, he couldn’t bear to say a harsh word to Mrs. Mu...
He raised his eyes to look at Huo Yihan, his voice faint and infused with a hint of danger, "What, did she offend you?"
Huo Yihan remained where he was, the black shirt and suit pants making him appear enveloped in a kind of dark violence.
The dark hue from the depths of his eyes had already spread to the outer layer, "My woman ran off with someone, and you can’t endure even a few minutes?"
If it weren’t for considering his face, would he still be this polite?
Nan Wan knew that if Huo Yihan didn’t get an answer, he wouldn’t give up easily, so after handing Jiu Jiu to the servant and watching them go upstairs with her son, she turned back to the sofa and sat beside her husband.
"Huo Yihan, when you needed to act like a man, you played dumb like a fool, and now who are you putting on this jilted act for?" she spoke slowly, with delicate eyebrows and eyes full of cold mockery, "Anyone who didn’t know might think you were the one who was so wronged."
Xu Moyi lingered foolishly in front of him for so many years, yet only now did he realize what he really wanted.
What were you doing all this time...
At her words, Huo Yihan’s distinctly jointed fingers clenched unconsciously, the veins on the back of his hand bulging, though hidden in his suit pants pocket, others couldn’t see any sign of it.
His dark eyes narrowed slightly, his monotone voice filled with an eerie undertone, "I asked where Xu Moyi is."
"Watch your tone with me," Mu Jin Huan said coldly, sweeping a glance at Huo Yihan as he drank the tea brought by the servant, "or don’t blame me if I become unfriendly."
Nan Wan leaned against the sofa back, pulled her long hair to one side, and said blandly, "Mo Yi is now with Xiao Ran, very settled. Who are you to her? What right do you have to question me about her whereabouts?"
When one is beloved wholeheartedly, they always feel secure.
Only when they lose it do they feel regret, but what good is regret...
Huo Yihan’s eyes were so filled with darkness it seemed they could swallow the entire living room, evidently at the peak of his endurance, "Even the longest place name doesn’t need ten words to say, why so much nonsense?"
The company was empty, the Xu family villa vacant, as was the Xiao family.
Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, Mr. Huo had always had smooth sailing, pampered wherever he went, never experiencing emotions like ’panic.’
But the moment he couldn’t find anyone, he was genuinely panicked.
"Bali Island," just when Huo Yihan thought Nan Wan would continue to stall, she revealed Xu Moyi’s whereabouts.
Then she looked up at the man standing in the center of the living room, showing a polite and appropriate smile, her voice gentle, "If you book a flight for tonight, maybe you can go and have a celebratory drink."
...
The armored door with a tight combination lock was slammed shut with such force it almost shattered the fish tank in the dining room.
Mu Jin Huan pressed his temple and pulled the woman closer, "Compared to Xiao Ran, do you still think Yihan is better?"
Perhaps the Xu family was worried about a repeat of the engagement party incident, so the elders of both families directly set the wedding venue abroad, inviting no one, not even notifying relatives other than a simple announcement.
They planned to make the public announcement after returning to the country, then choose a date to host guests.
After all, the marriage between the Xiao and Xu families was already an accepted fact in this circle, and with travel weddings being the latest trend among young people, it wouldn’t seem improper.
"How could I possibly, I don’t fancy him at all," Nan Wan said, her head aching from the noise Huo Yihan had created, her pretty brows slightly furrowed as she snuggled obediently in the man’s arms, "He just called me deaf."
Typical sharp tongue with a soft heart.
Mu Jin Huan’s lips curved into a faint, almost imperceptible smile, as he kissed the woman’s cheek, "Alright, I remember, I’ll help you get back at him another day."
