Chapter 535 What Are You up to Again
The two of them looked at each other and their eyes met. Ye Xi's face slightly flushed as she lightly pursed her lips and took the initiative to shrink herself into his embrace.
With her cheek pressed against his wide chest, Ye Xi only felt at ease and content.
He put his arm around his waist, through the terrors of the day and the nightmares of the night, and the lethargy of pregnancy.
In his arms, Ye Xi was about to fall asleep.
Huo Yaoting caressed her soft hair and kissed her ear softly, "Sleep, I'm here."
The corner of Ye Xi's mouth twitched, and she allowed herself to fall asleep in Yun Che's embrace.
In the front courtyard of the Chu residence, it was already 3 o'clock in the morning.
Chu Lingtian sat in the main seat of the hall with a serious expression on his face. He stood straight at the window with his black overcoat almost melting into the night sky outside the window.
After so many years of tacit understanding, neither of them said a word and were still thinking.
It was nearly four o'clock when a tall, dark figure stepped into the room.
Qin Qing was the first to turn around, expressionlessly looking at the man who entered the room.
Chu Lingtian indifferently raised his eyes and glanced at the man.
The man's facial features were sunken, his eyebrows were like ink, and his face was cold. His rigid and upright body appeared extremely cold and hazy.
Her dark eyes looked coldly at Chu Lingtian and Qin Qing, and she walked to the side and sat down.
"What are your plans after this?" Chu Lingtian frowned slightly, but his tone was indifferent.
"Xiao Xi ca
ot go out alone during this period of time." Huo Yaoting paused, her thin lips pursed, "It's best not to go out."
Chu Lingtian frowned, his black eyes carried a hint of ridicule and said, "I, Chu Lingtian's daughter, am able to do whatever I want. She can go anywhere she wants! "
Huo Yaoting sneered, "Then I can only bring her to my side."
"If you don't have the ability to protect Xiao Xi, then you don't have the qualifications to take her away from me!"
Huo Yaoting frowned, staring coldly at Chu Lingtian.
Chu Lingtian's expression was dark, his black eyes were filled with anger, "There is no father in this world who would stand by idly and watch his daughter with an impotent man. A man who can't even protect his own woman, is simply a wimp! "
Huo Yaoting's face darkened instantly as he looked at Chu Lingtian with ridicule in his eyes, "Are you saying these words to me as an experienced loser? "Mr. Chu!"
"?" Chu Lingtian's jaw was tense, and the veins on both sides of his temples throbbed. However, he couldn't find a single word to refute.
Huo Yaoting's face darkened, he got up, "I will take care of this matter. On the other hand, Mr. Chu, if you really claim to be a qualified father, you shouldn't have put your daughter in danger because of your own negligence. "
With that, Huo Yaoting walked out.
Chu Lingtian clenched his fists tightly, and stared at Huo Yaoting's back, which was disappearing before his eyes.
Regarding the war of words between Chu Lingtian and himself, Qin Qing chose to be a quiet spectator.
Until Huo Yaoting left, Qin Qing looked at Chu Lingtian whose face was ashen, his lips lifted slightly, "We are family, what's there to be angry about!"
Chu Lingtian glared at Qin Qing, "I just don't like him!"
"It's not that you don't like him, it's just that you probably don't like any man in this world who is your son-in-law." Qin Qing casually revealed the truth.
Chu Lingtian's mouth twitched, he had no words to refute.
Because what he said was the truth.
"The battle between Huo Yaoting and his father would happen sooner or later. The moment Huo Yaoting gained control of the Huo's, it became harder and harder for Huo Feng to control his son. Now it would seem that Huo Feng had discovered the existence of Xiao Xi and Ji
ian. Knowing that they are Huo Yaoting's weakness, with Huo Feng's personality, he would definitely think of ways to catch Xiao Xi or Ji
ian and threaten Huo Yaoting. "
Qin Qing calmly analyzed the situation, "I won't say too much about Huo Yaoting's ability, but you know what I'm capable of. Xiao Xi is by his side. With how much he cares about Xiao Xi, I actually believe that he can protect her well ? "
"Hmph, you believe that?" Chu Lingtian scoffed.
The corner of Qin Qing's eyes twitched, he looked at Chu Lingtian's disdainful eyebrows, and could not help but laugh, "It's precisely because she cares too much about your precious daughter that even though I have enough strength and confidence to protect her, I will still worry about her the same thing, no matter where you go."
Chu Lingtian's black eyes wavered slightly as the corners of his mouth twitched but he did not say a word.
Seeing that, Qin Qing paused for a while, then continued, "Now it seems that Huo Yaoting and Huo Feng's battle can be considered to have officially begun. but earlier than we thought. "
He thought that even if Huo Yaoting wanted to deal with Huo Feng, he would definitely not make a move in the near future.
After all, Huo Feng was still his father after all, and even though Huo Feng had openly given him authority, he still had not given up control of his Huo's in private.
"Why do you think he chose to deal with Huo Feng now?" Qin Qing looked at Chu Lingtian, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Chu Lingtian looked at him, "Earlier, Huo Feng's son, Huo Mohan, was sent into the police station, and he was actually Huo Feng's direct son, how can Huo Feng take this lying down?"
Qin Qing frowned, "You mean to say, Huo Feng is already secretly preparing to deal with Huo Yaoting?"
Chu Lingtian remained silent.
Just as Qin Qing had said, this battle between Huo Feng and him, was something that could not be avoided.
It was just that, if the news of their internal strife were to be spread, many of the enterprises that were eyeing the Huo's Group covetously would probably take action upon hearing the news.
However, in B City, the four great families were co
ected.
Joe's and Qi Clan would never add insult to injury at this moment in time.
Furthermore, the illegitimate daughter of the Gu Clan was now Huo Feng's daughter-in-law, so she would probably not interfere. Furthermore, the current Gu Clan would not be able to interfere either.
Then who in the entire B City would benefit the most from this?
Chu Lingtian's eyebrows twitched. He probably couldn't wait anymore.
Licking his lips, Chu Lingtian smiled sinisterly at Qin Qing.
Qin Qing's back was slightly numb, his brows knitted extremely deeply, "What are you pla
ing this time?"
Chu Lingtian raised his eyebrows, and leisurely stroked his chin, "Tell me, how about we snatch the Huo's over to make my daughter's dowry?"
"?" Qin Qing opened his eyes wide, completely terrified by this sinister old fellow, he stared at him, unable to say a word.
Chu Lingtian's smile became more brilliant, his slender finger tapped on the table, as though he was pla
ing something.
Qin Qing felt goosebumps all over the ground when he saw Chu Lingtian's greenish black eyes.
From the bottom of his heart, Qin Qing did not believe that Chu Lingtian would take this opportunity to 'rob houses'. If it was in the past, this was a rare opportunity, he raised his hands and feet in approval.
But now, Huo Yaoting was his daughter's husband, his grandson's father, and his son-in-law after all.
His actions were truly shocking.
But on the second day, Chu Lingtian made him arrange to meet Yan Beichen at Sujin House.
Qin Qing finally believed that this person truly had plans to devour Huo's Group.
Leaving aside the fact that his appetite was not that big, after the things that had happened, the enmity between him and Huo Yaoting had already worsened.
If he was happy, perhaps Xiao Xi would blame him.
And Blue, between her daughter and the man, had no doubt that she was the one who had chosen her daughter.
Don't end up with a broken wife like him?!
Qin Qing's heart chilled, and he was actually a little anxious.
The next day, Ye Xi's figure no longer existed beside him, and his heart was filled with dejection.
He woke up listlessly, washed up and ate breakfast according to the schedule.
After that, she accompanied Lan and Ji
ian in bathing in the sun in the courtyard.
Lan saw her daughter's expression darken and felt slightly worried. "Xiao Xi, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Ye Xi was startled, then he realized that Lan had started to worry for him unconsciously. He quickly changed his state of mind and smiled at Lan, "I don't feel uncomfortable, the sun is scorching me until I'm lazy."
Lan Jue took a closer look at her face, and seeing that she was alright, felt relieved.
