Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him-Chapter 82 - : Uncontrollable Passion Between Men and Women

Chapter 82 -82: Uncontrollable Passion Between Men and Women

“Hello.”

Qiao Xi was breathing slightly, speaking into the phone, “May I ask, who is this?”

Huo Xingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly and nibbled gently on her earlobe, causing Qiao Xi to cry out in alarm.

“Mr. Huo!”

Qiao Xi chided softly, “Don’t…”

The person on the other end of the phone was breathing heavily and hung up immediately.

...

Huo Xingzhou raised his eyebrows and distanced himself from her.

“Lately, have there been many such calls?” Huo Xingzhou asked thoughtfully.

Qiao Xi nodded, “Some don’t say anything when I answer, and others are just looking for medical advice. But with my finger injured like this, I can’t consult at the moment. The hospital has been urging me for a while, Dr. Yan wants me to go back to be a mascot who just collects a paycheck.”

“They all like you very much.”

Huo Xingzhou used his hand to brush her hair behind her ear and said, “I’ll take you home first, then go to the police station to deal with Huo Jianjun’s matter.”

“No need, I can go back by myself.” Qiao Xi didn’t want to take up his time.

“Then I’ll have Lao Chen take you home.”

“Okay.”

In these special times, Qiao Xi did not dare to go alone.

Huo Xingzhou’s gaze fell on her shoulder, his fingers lightly picking at her strap, a quiet chuckle seemed to be hidden in his throat: “Your strap is showing.”

In the midst of confusion and desire, self-control was always hard to come by.

Qiao Xi’s ears turned bright red.

She bit her lip and adjusted her clothing.

“Lao Chen’s car is right at the entrance of the building.”

“I know. Goodbye, Mr. Huo!”

Qiao Xi walked briskly to the door then turned back.

She tiptoed and kissed the corner of the man’s lips, “This is for returning the favor.”

After saying that, she ran out.

Huo Xingzhou’s eyes deepened, male and female passions, sometimes uncontrollable.

His patience and restraint were almost at their limit.

Yet she still unconsciously provoked him.

…

Qiao Xi descended the stairs and returned to the Huo family’s small villa in high spirits.

Huo Jiancheng was in the living room, restless.

Seeing her, he quickly stood up to greet her: “Qiao Xi!”

Qiao Xi stopped in her tracks and respectfully called out, “Father-in-law.”

“Qiao Xi, could you please come with me somewhere? I have an urgent matter,” Huo Jiancheng said with an anxious expression and sweat on his forehead.

“I…”

“It won’t be dangerous, I’m begging you,” Huo Jiancheng interrupted her.

Qiao Xi furrowed her brow but eventually nodded with difficulty. Huo Jiancheng and Du Juan had always treated her well, even better than her own parents.

“I knew you were a good child, let’s go! My car is parked outside.”

Huo Jiancheng pulled her along as they walked out.

The two got into the car and set off. Qiao Xi looked at the familiar scenery and asked, “Are we going to the Huo family’s old mansion?”

Huo Jiancheng’s face looked unnatural as he explained hesitantly, “There’s been a situation at the old master’s place, and I have no one else I can trust, so I had to come to you. Qiao Xi, I’m not deliberately making things difficult for you, please just consider it as helping me.”

Qiao Xi’s expression grew solemn.

She thought of the words Huo Xingzhou had said to her within Huo’s premises.

He said that tonight, there might be significant developments.

She looked outside, where the golden sun was setting, the sky aflame with the glow of dusk.

It would soon be dark.

After an hour’s drive, the car finally stopped at the stately and substantial old mansion.

“Qiao Xi, hurry up!”

Huo Jiancheng was very anxious.

Qiao Xi followed him, jogging inside.

The butler Azhong sighed in relief when he saw them, “You’ve finally arrived. The old master and the eldest young master are still in the room. It’s such a sin!”

After he finished speaking, he led the way ahead.

Qiao Xi noticed that the servants of the Huo Family’s old mansion were rushing about with looks of panic and fear.

Even the usually arrogant Wang Fengxian was nowhere to be seen.

She had a feeling that something really bad had happened.

“Dad’s inside, right?”

Huo Jiancheng let out a sigh. He knew that Huo Jianjun had been arrested, and Huo Beiting had done what he did.

Such misfortune for the family!

He felt even more sympathy for the old master now.

“Yes, he’s inside. But the old master instructed that if Miss Qiao Xi arrived, she should enter alone,” Butler Azhong reminded.

Huo Jiancheng pointed to his own nose, “I can’t go in? But Qiao Xi…”

Qiao Xi pursed her lips tightly and said, looking at the mahogany door before her, “I’ll go in myself.”

Her hand touched the doorknob, and she gently turned it.

Separated by a wall of curio shelves, the bedroom scene was unclear.

This was her second time entering the old master of the Huo Family’s bedroom.

The door behind her was closed by Azhong.

Qiao Xi paused in her step and walked in.

She saw Huo Beiting with a twisted expression, being pressed to the floor by a burly bodyguard. The old master of the Huo Family had his eyes tightly shut, leaning on a recliner, next to him on a bamboo tea table was a bowl of blackish, already cold medicinal decoction.

“You’ve come.”

Huo Weiguo’s voice was murky and aged, he slightly opened his eyes to look at Qiao Xi, and there was no longer any brightness in them.

“Did you specifically ask for me?” Qiao Xi looked at the disheveled Huo Beiting on the floor and then turned her gaze to the old master.

“Yes.”

Huo Weiguo’s attitude towards her had become much calmer.

He gestured with his hand, “Please help me see what was added to this medicinal decoction.”

Qiao Xi stepped closer and carefully lifted the bowl to sniff.

A familiar scent.

“Tampered White Aconite, Angelica Dahurica… Direct consumption would lead to poisoning and death. This is the medicine Zhuo Feng used to deal with Mr. Huo.”

Qiao Xi said indifferently.

After Huo Weiguo heard this, he took a deep breath, “Beast!”

He threw the glass cup beside him at Huo Beiting, instantly swelling his forehead to redness.

“Grandfather!” Huo Beiting wailed with tears streaming down, “It’s all Huo Xingzhou’s ruthless actions, he got my dad locked up, and next, he will come after me! I must get the 30% shares to stand against him.”

Huo Weiguo coughed violently in anger.

“Even if you get the shares, you can’t stand against him!”

“Why! Even you are on Huo Xingzhou’s side, weren’t you planning to give the shares to Huo Xingzhou since your seventieth birthday celebration?” Huo Beiting roared fiercely, arrogantly raising his head to look at the old master, full of hatred.

With a hoarse voice, Huo Weiguo said, “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have been partial. I cleaned up the mess for you after the car accident because I didn’t want to lose two grandsons at the same time. I never expected you to make things worse. Haven’t I been good enough to your main branch?”

“Good? Because we are easy to control, right? Whatever you say, we listen. Not like Huo Xingzhou who has his own opinions!”

Huo Beiting laughed bitterly, his eyes reddened with laughter.

Huo Weiguo waved his hand and spoke with a heart full of disappointment, “I will not pursue today’s poisoning. Take him out; I don’t want to see him.”

Who would have thought at seventy, I would end up alone.

The bodyguard escorted Huo Beiting out of the room, leaving only Qiao Xi and the old master in the vast space.

“I’ve made you witness a farce,” said the old master, looking at Qiao Xi.

With a calm expression, Qiao Xi looked at him and said, “You asked for me to come here, it wasn’t just to identify the poison, was it?”

The old master spoke softly, “Go open the bedside table, the first drawer.”

Qiao Xi frowned slightly and walked over.

She pulled open the first drawer and saw the contents inside.
