Huo Yunting looked calm on the surface but his heart was pounding uncontrollably. He was tongue-tied.
Lu Zhaoyang did not see him coming. Her heart almost stopped. The face that she always dreamed of in her dreams was still that enchanting and indolent. His handsome face was even more profound than ever. Like a good old wine, he became more attractive with time.
Huo Yunting pursed his lips. But he could not hide the smile on his lips.
Lu Zhaoyang was rooted to the spot, not knowing how to respond. She could only watch as he came closer.
“Daddy!” A kiddish voice was heard yelling.
Huo Yunting’s frowned as he looked in the direction of the voice and saw a child appearing from behind Lu Zhaoyang.
That face—Huo Yunting stopped in his tracks with bated breath. His mind went blank and he did not know what to do.
Was this little guy calling him? Did Lu Zhaoyang get pregnant while he bluffed that it was her safe days?
“Daddy, you have finally come!” Little Huo Xu got out from behind Lu Zhaoyang and ran towards him.
Just as Huo Yunting wanted to catch him, he heard steady footsteps coming from behind him. Little Huo Xu ran past him and plunged into Huo Chen’s arms. Huo Chen smiled and carried him up.
Huo Yunting was dumbstruck. Lu Zhaoyang had a child with Huo Chen? He quickly reigned in his thought and clenched his fists before he lost it. His piercing eyes landed on Lu Zhaoyang with a sly smile before he turned around and left.
He came as fast as possible just to see her. But he left like a bat out of hell because he was afraid that he would lose it and kill her.
Huo Yunting’s mind was a muddle while he took his car out of the Huo residence. He was glad that Lu Zhaoyang had regained her eyesight and come back but he was fit to be tied when he learned that she had a child with Huo Chen. The mixed feeling of joy and agony had him coming apart at the seams.
Huo Yunting slammed on the brakes and brought the car to a halt at the roadside before forcefully flinging his fist on the steering wheel. He then lit a cigarette, leaned back and puffed on it with his eyes closed. Smoke quickly filled the cabin.
Meanwhile, at the Huo residence, Little Huo’s eyes darted around curiously, “Yang Yang, who is that uncle? Where is he?”
“I have no idea. He was probably a guest.” Lu Zhaoyang gave a brief reply.
“I don’t think so. He was smiling at you!” The little guy got down from Huo Chen’s arms with a don’t-bluff-me look.
Lu Zhaoyang was at a loss of how to respond. The child was unexpectedly observant.
“Xuxu, let daddy take you around.” Huo Chen came to her rescue and quickly drew the child’s attention away.
After Huo Chen and Huo Xu left, Lu Zhaoyang dropped back on the couch. She was at her wits’ end.
She did not expect to bump into Huo Yunting under this circumstance, let alone to let him see his son. They ended up in a quarrel when they last saw each other. She left. Now, it seemed that things had gotten even worse.
