Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him

Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Men, Born with a Desire for Beauty!

Huo Xingzhou frowned and looked at him, his gaze growing colder.

“Get lost.”

Zhou Yu, with a sleazy face, said, “Don’t be embarrassed. Tell me, did Cheng Han cure your infertility?”

“No,” Huo Xingzhou said impatiently.

Zhou Yu deflated like a punctured ball, “What a pity. I can’t find anyone to share all those good things with. Huo Er, don’t lose heart, you will definitely get healthy!”

He patted Huo Xingzhou’s shoulder sympathetically.

...

“What good things do you have?” Huo Xingzhou asked flatly, looking at him inquisitively.

“Lots of good things.”

Zhou Yu lifted his eyebrows proudly, “Things beyond your imagination.”

Things that were available in the market and those that were not, he had them all.

There was even a storage room in his house dedicated to these treasures, which even the housemaid wasn’t allowed to enter and clean.

“Vulgar,” Huo Xingzhou cursed.

Zhou Yu, upon hearing this, showed an unhappy face and retorted, “A man, by nature, pursues the pleasures of the flesh! Don’t insult my hobbies when you haven’t experienced the ultimate pleasures of life. You have no idea what ecstatic union, what intimate delights are like!”

Huo Xingzhou gave him a cold look.

Zhou Yu, clutching his hand, said, “Don’t you doubt me, there will come a day when you’ll beg me for help!”

“That day will never come.”

“Keep being stubborn then. When Qiao Xi grows tired of you, you’ll know to beg me.”

Zhou Yu quickly became serious again and looked at him, saying, “Tomorrow, I’ll send over yours and Qiao Xi’s outfits. The elder Huo’s birthday banquet starts at six in the evening; as the founder of Tianyuan Group, it’s time you made an appearance.”

He had already let out the news that the Tianyuan founder was arriving in Haicheng!

“Huo Xingzhou, tomorrow night is the time for vengeance, for settling grudges. I’m waiting for you to smash their faces!”

With a glance, Huo Xingzhou said, “As you wish.”

Zhou Yu looked at him firmly, smiled, and then left.

Outside the villa, the sound of an engine soon followed.

The car drove away in a cloud of smoke.

Huo Xingzhou stretched his hand out and picked up the specially made black invitation with gold embossing, his expression indifferent.

No one must have expected him to have an ace up his sleeve.

Qiao Xi came down the stairs and saw this scene.

“Mr. Huo.”

She called out and said, “Jiaojiao has fallen asleep. I’ve made sure that she hasn’t suffered any other harm. But she’s not in a good mental state, probably frightened.”

Huo Sijiao, being two years older than Qiao Xi, had a forthright and lively personality.

She was a young lady who grew up spoiled and had never encountered any serious issues.

It was normal for her to be frightened this time.

Huo Xingzhou put the invitation aside and looked at her, asking, “What about you? Were you frightened?”

Qiao Xi shook her head.

“I’m brave. When I was little, I even followed Grandpa Cheng into the deep mountains to gather herbs. I’m not scared,” she sat down on the sofa next to Huo Xingzhou and poured him a cup of warm water.

Her delicate and fair fingers held the warm water, her eyes smiling at him.

“Mr. Huo, drink more water.”

Huo Xingzhou took the cup and said to her, “Qiao Xi, tomorrow is the Huo family patriarch’s seventieth birthday, and I will be going.”

“Then I’ll accompany you,” Qiao Xi continued.

Although she didn’t know what Huo Xingzhou had done or what his identity was, Qiao Xi was no fool; having been around him so long, she had her suspicions.

Huo Xingzhou looked at her, a glint of dark, fragmented light flickering in his eyes as if his icy heart had been comforted.

“Good, come with me.”

His gaze suddenly paused on something, so he stood up and walked over to her.

Qiao Xi looked up at him with puzzlement, as he reached out with his long fingers to touch the hem of her dress and gently drew out a corner of the fabric.

“You’ve been exposed,” he said, his voice controlled and calm.

Qiao Xi looked down hastily, pulling her dress’ hem over her knees. She whispered, “Please sit back in the wheelchair quickly, or Aunt Qian might walk in.”

The residual warmth on her thigh felt tingly, unconsciously making her modesty kick in as she sat up tight.

Qiao Xi, feeling the awkwardness in the air, swiftly changed the subject, “Mr. Huo, right now your leg can only stand briefly. You really need to take good care of it, I’ve prepared a rehabilitation plan for you.”

She believed that, once he finished rehabilitating, he would definitely recover.

“I’ll listen to you,” he said.

Huo Xingzhou eased himself back into the wheelchair, his gaze clear and pure, but his fingers on his right hand, hanging by his side, rubbed unconsciously.

“You should rest early. Jiaojiao might get scared tonight, I will sleep with her. Goodnight!”

“Hmm.” @@novelbin@@

Huo Xingzhou watched her run upstairs with light steps.

…

The next day.

Zhou Yu sent over dresses and jewelry first thing in the morning, along with a whole team for styling and makeup.

Huo Sijiao rubbed her bleary eyes, looking at the luxury gift boxes arrayed in the living room, bewildered.

She turned slowly to look at Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi, and asked,

“Brother, sister-in-law, did you just say we’re going to Grandpa’s seventieth birthday banquet? I didn’t hear wrong, did I?”

She suspected she was still drunk and not fully sober, thus hearing things.

“Yes,” he said with a nonchalant expression.

Huo Sijiao stepped forward, touched his forehead, and said, “You don’t have a fever! Why are you spouting nonsense so early in the morning? You can’t possibly be serious, right?”

“Do you want to go?” Huo Xingzhou asked.

Huo Sijiao shook her head hurriedly, but her face was filled with difficulty.

She instinctively didn’t want to go, but she was worried about her brother and sister-in-law being bullied. One in a wheelchair, the other looking delicate and frail.

“Bro, do you regret cutting ties with the Huo Family? If you really regret it, don’t choose this occasion to seek reconciliation. Do you know how many people will be there tonight?”

The entire Haicheng high society, all the prominent figures would be there!

Huo Sijiao advised earnestly, “Huo Beiting will definitely humiliate you mercilessly. You hit his lackey yesterday, how could he just let it go?”

In her view, it was like walking into a lion’s den.

How could they deliberately put themselves in a position to be bullied!

“I’m not going there to seek reconciliation,” Huo Xingzhou clarified.

“Then you’re going to make a scene? That’s even worse! There will be many professional bodyguards on-site, how could old Chen possibly contend with so many well-trained fighters!”

Qiao Xi grabbed her and said, “Jiaojiao, it’s okay, if you’re scared you can just stay at home.”

“Sister-in-law, you don’t understand how serious this is.”

She was truly anxious; her parents had gone out on a trip again, and there was no one to offer advice.

“Do you want to go?” Huo Xingzhou calmly asked again.

Huo Sijiao, seeing that they were deluded, bit her teeth fiercely and said, “I won’t go!”

She planned to call her parents, who were out traveling to unwind, to hurry back and be ready to clean up the mess.

…

Six o’clock in the evening.

Haicheng’s only seven-star hotel was booked out exclusively for the grand celebration of the Huo family patriarch’s seventieth birthday!

Yunding Grand Hotel was located in the center of Haicheng, constructed with ninety thousand tons of steel, seemingly floating in mid-air.

Night fell.

When the city’s neon lights lit up, it seemed like a palace in the sky, stunningly beautiful and extremely luxurious!
