483 Parting Worry
Zhou Zhou looked at the beautiful and moving Sisi. Sisi’s selfless love actually moved him, but he was unwilling to fall in love in this manner.
“Sisi, you’re a good girl. It’s not that I don’t like you, but you know that I had an unforgettable love for another woman. If I can’t love you with all my heart, it’s unfair to you,” Huo Zhou told her as a big brother.
She smiled bitterly. “Zhou Zhou, you’re wrong. If every relationship is like the one Sister Qiao An and Brother Xiaoran have, a combination of spirit and flesh, then there won’t be any resentment in this world. Look at this world. How many people are married because of love? How much love can sustain relationships?”
Huo Zhou was stunned.
!!
Sisi’s comprehension of love was so realistic that it did not match her age.
Huo Zhou suddenly realized that Sisi was very mature, even more so than him. This might be because her native family was too poor to be her haven. She had supported her family too early and was forced to mature early.
At that moment, Huo Zhou could no longer treat her as a young lady.
The reaction in his body and his understanding made Huo Zhou, a man who had been able to do whatever he wanted since he was young, less apprehensive.
He swallowed hard and said, “Sisi, are you really willing to be with me, even if I can’t love you with all my heart?”
Sisi nodded.
Huo Zhou reached out and pinched her chin, pulling her in front of him. “You won’t regret it?”
“No regrets!”
Zhou Zhou leaned over and kissed her.
After Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An returned to the compound, Huo Xiaoran received a message from Boss Guo. “See you at the Cofco Pier on the 15th of August.”
Huo Xiaoran’s eyes were filled with surprise. “Cofco Pier?”
However, Qianyu told Qiao An that Nighthawk would definitely go to the White Horse Temple to pay his respects on the 15th of August.
A conflicted expression appeared on his handsome face.
Nighthawk was wise. The goods would be traded at the Cofco Pier. That would attract most of the police’s attention.
As for him, he woulds go to the White Horse Temple leisurely to pay his respects. Who would have thought that he would not participate in such a big matter?
Then should he go to the Cofco Pier or the White Horse Temple?
“Brother Xiaoran, what’s wrong?” Qiao An saw Huo Xiaoran in a daze and retreated to ask him.
Huo Xiaoran said, “Boss Guo asked me to meet him on the 15th of August.”
Qiao An’s lips curled into a sneer. “He deliberately messed with you. I’m afraid the real deal isn’t at the pier?”
Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An in surprise. “An’an, why do you think that?”
Qiao An smiled. “Isn’t that obvious? The first time he makes a deal with you, he would be wary of you. How could he do that kind of business with you the first time? Besides, you’re Falcon’s son after all. Your father has been inside for so many years. He must be someone who has influence. They won’t harm you before you give yourself away. So I reckon the deal at Cofco Wharf is a small, legitimate deal. They’re just deliberately testing you.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An with a hazy smile and admiration. “An’an, why are you so smart?”
Qiao An rolled her eyes at him. “I don’t believe you can’t guess such simple logic. You didn’t need my guidance in the first place. I’m showing off in front of an expert.”
Huo Xiaoran pinched her round chin and kissed her. “An’an, I really love you to death.”
Qiao An secretly pinched his waist and smiled charmingly. “You’re so mushy.”
Huo Xiaoran held her waist and looked at her affectionately.
August 15th was coming up. Although he didn’t say it, he was actually even more terrified than Qiao An. He was also afraid that he would have an accident in that hail of bullets.
He wasn’t afraid of death, but the thought of Qiao An and the children coping without him terrified him.
Qiao An was originally smiling teasingly until she saw the deep longing in Huo Xiaoran’s amber eyes. Her smile disappeared inch by inch.
Then she threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.
“Brother Xiaoran, go and see the children,” she said hoarsely after a long time.
Huo Xiaoran nodded. “Yes.”
He went upstairs. It was the weekend, and the children were still on their lunch break.
He pushed open the door and entered Angel’s room. She was already sleeping soundly. Even cries rose and fell. Huo Xiaoran sat at the head of the bed and looked at his precious daughter quietly.
His gaze outlined Angel’s face over and over again. He liked Angel, who looked like Qiao An, the most.
After a long time, Huo Xiaoran stood up and left silently.
When he opened the door, he suddenly heard his daughter’s soft voice behind him. “Daddy.”
Huo Xiaoran was a little surprised. He looked back and saw Angel stretching out her chubby arms to him. “Daddy, hug me.”
Huo Xiaoran walked over and hugged Angel. He kissed her forehead and reminded her very seriously, “Baby, Daddy is going out tomorrow. If he’s delayed by something and can’t come back, promise Daddy that you’ll help Daddy take good care of Mommy in the future, okay?”
Angel nodded adorably.
“Okay.”
When Huo Xiaoran arrived at Joey’s room, Joey was sleeping soundly. He sat for a while, but she did not wake up.
Huo Xiaoran leaned over and kissed her before leaving.
In the end, Huo Xiaoran came to Ki Ki’s room. Ki Ki did not sleep at all during his lunch break. Instead, he focused on piecing together his Lego toys.
When Huo Xiaoran entered, Ki Ki was so taken aback that he quickly covered the Lego with the blanket.
Huo Xiaoran walked over and patted his head. “Daddy saw everything.”
Only then did Ki Ki lift the blanket and carefully beg his father, “Daddy, don’t tell Mommy. Otherwise, Mommy will scold me again.”
Ki Ki was sensible and took care of Mommy’s emotions. Perhaps it was because he had undergone intensive training since he was young, but he seemed especially mature and determined.
Huo Xiaoran patted Ki Ki’s head affectionately and said, “Ki Ki, you’re a man. Daddy believes that one day in the future, you will definitely have the ability to protect many people, including your mommy and sisters.”
Ki Ki immediately raised his head and said firmly, “And Daddy.”
Huo Xiaoran’s eyes were filled with tears. “Yes, Daddy will wait for you to grow up quickly to protect Daddy.”
At night, Huo Zhou came to Xiao Ran’s side and invited his family to be guests.
Xiaoran was very surprised. “Zhou Zhou, why are you treating?”
Huo Zhou looked very sad. “There’s a happy occasion at home. My mother wants you to go over and celebrate.”
“A joyous occasion?” Qiao An called out. “Whose joyous occasion is it? Could it be that you and Sisi… ”
Huo Zhou looked at Qiao An dejectedly. “An’an, why are girls so smart?”
