Chapter 187

Huo Wu opened her eyes widely in shock.

At this time, an anxious voice interrupted them, “Hey! Young man, what are you doing? Are you a pervert?”

It all happened so quickly. Before she knew it Mother Jiang was waving the broom at Mo Ze.

Mo Ze noticed the approaching broom out of the corner of his eye and subconsciously held on to Huo Wu and backed up a few steps.

Seeing that the broom didn’t hit Mo Ze, Mother Jiang raised her broom again and said harshly, “Let go of this young lady at once, you hear me?”

What happened was when Mother Jiang and Father Jiang were on their way back to work, they happened to see the part where Mo Ze confessed to Huo Wu. As a result, they subconsciously saw Mo Ze act like an indecent hooligan.

Mo Ze’s action was just too flirtatious, and the spot he picked was too private as well. It was hard for them not to be suspicious.

Mother Jiang was an impatient person, so she directly rushed up at them with her broom.

Huo Wu pushed Mo Ze away and smoothed her messy hair to the back of her ear with an awkward look on her face. “Auntie Jiang.”

The Jiang couple hurriedly came up to her and asked concernedly, “Are you ok?”

Huo Wu shook her head.

Due to the interruption from the Jiang couple, the atmosphere that had been built up by the confession disappeared completely.

The couple peeved him so much that Mo Ze wanted to laugh. He finally got the chance to see her and confess to her, yet they had to come around and ruin everything.

However, Huo Wu let out a sigh of relief.

She hurriedly apologized to Mo Ze, then left with the Jiang couple.

The Jiang couple stood next to each side of Huo Wu and avoided Mo Ze as if he was a pervert. They also turned around cautiously to give him dirty looks several times. Seeing the Jiang couple act this way, Mo Ze really could do nothing about it either.

As Mo Ze watched Huo Wu leave, he couldn’t help but say with gritted teeth, “This little heartless person.”

But thinking about the kiss that wasn’t really a kiss, he touched his lower lip, caressed it a few times, and smiled lightly.

After thanking the Jiang couple, Huo Wu left in her car and drove away.

Within the past few hours, there were quite a few things that happened. Huo Wu first learned that she wasn’t the child of the Jiang family, then Mo Ze confessed to her. Neither event was within Huo Wu’s expectations. She went inside a dessert store and was about to buy a few desserts to calm herself down.

When Huo Wu got home with her bag full of treats, Huo Yuan stopped her just as she was heading to her room.

Huo Wu didn’t expect Huo Yuan to be at home at this time. When he called out to her, Huo Wu stopped in her tracks.

Huo Yuan looked at her with a complicated expression on his face.

He sighed, pointed at the couch not too far away from them, and said, “Let’s sit before we talk.”

Seeing that Huo Yuan seemed to be preparing for a long talk, Huo Wu’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.

After they both sat down on the sofa, Huo Yuan was silent for a long time.

Huo Wu didn’t rush him and was silent as well.

After a long pause, Huo Yuan finally began, “Ah Wu, I have a new house at the third ring in Beijing. No one has lived there yet. It’s also close to your school.”

Before Huo Yuan even finished, Huo Wu understood what he meant.

He wanted her to move out.

“The house is already decorated and you can move in at any time. I will have someone purchase some furniture, and you can also suggest anything you like as well. What do you think?”

Huo Yuan had already made up his mind. Huo Wu’s thoughts didn’t matter at all. Recognizing this, Huo Wu had nothing to say and just nodded her head in silence.

After seeing Huo Wu nod, Huo Yuan let out a sigh of relief. “Remember to come back and visit during holidays.”

“Ok.”

After the former father and daughter finished their conversation, there was nothing else they could really talk about.

The atmosphere between them felt awkward.

Seeing the quiet Huo Wu, Huo Yuan felt a bit bad. However, he had to make that decision.

Huo Yuqin had cried more than once in front of him about how seeing Huo Wu made her remember her difficult days. While Huo Wu was being pampered, she had gone into society at a young age in order to survive. Seeing the beloved Huo Wu, Huo Yuqin felt like her past couldn’t compare and this made her even sadder.
