Chapter 205
After hearing Gu Chi’s suggestion, Huo Wu subconsciously glanced at Huo Yusen. Seeing the faint disapproval on his face, Huo Wu quickly went along with Huo Yusen and said, “Second Cousin, the occasion is inappropriate right now. Why not next time?”
After Gu Chi put forward his suggestion, he also felt that it was unseemly to take a group photo in a place like a hot springs pool. Anyway, he ought to be more formal when he appeared in front of the public for the first time as Huo Wu’s second cousin. Thus, he merely grunted and didn’t say much after he was rejected.
There were plenty of opportunities for them to take group photos anyway, so he didn’t have to rush today.
The four people dispersed after a short soak in the hot springs pool.
After Huo Wu returned to the locker room again, she felt a little more relaxed. In the hot springs pool just now, the three men had almost no communication during the whole process. Not to mention verbal communication, they didn’t even have eye contact. Even though the water in the hot springs pool was boiling hot and emitting thick steam, the atmosphere in the pool was extremely cold, as if it could immediately freeze people.
But fortunately, they still finished soaking in the hot springs pool.
Nevertheless, it was not a very pleasant experience.
Huo Wu first picked up her clothes from the cabinet. When she was just about to change her clothes, another person suddenly entered the locker room.
The cold wind rushed into the locker room from outside. Huo Wu was startled when she noticed someone’s arrival. She was just about to open her mouth to call out, but before she could say anything, she clearly saw the person who had entered.
It was none other than Huo Yusen!
Huo Wu gripped the clothes in her hand and subconsciously covered her chest.
Fortunately, she hadn’t had the time to change out of her swimsuit just now.
Otherwise…
Huo Wu opened her mouth and said somewhat bewildered, “Big Brother… This seems to be the women’s locker room.”
So, did he enter the wrong place?
Hou Yusen was still covered in droplets of water. His hair was also wet and dripping, and the water droplets around his face slowly trickled down his angular cheeks, then gathered at his chin. And then, because of gravity, they fell off his chin and down his chest, inch by inch.
Dripping wet all over, he was a tad wilder and sexier than he normally was.
His eyes that looked like two bottomless pools appeared deeper and darker the more they stared at her.
He also looked completely dangerous.
The narrow women’s locker room suddenly became even more cramped because of the addition of Huo Yusen.
After Huo Yusen heard Huo Wu’s reminder, he gave a low grunt but remained standing there instead of leaving the premises.
It took Huo Yusen a couple of steps to get in front of Huo Wu, and his proximity drove Huo Wu into subconsciously taking a few steps back. She leaned firmly against her locker. And in that second, Huo Yusen stretched up an arm, propped up by her ear, while his other arm was situated near her thin waist.
His stance screamed absolute possessiveness.
He surrounded her entire body in a solid knot and confined her in his arms.
In the airtight space, his breath overwhelmed and completely surrounded her.
His warm and cool scent drifted into Huo Wu’s nostrils.
She was familiar with his scent and couldn’t be any more familiar at this time. Even if she smelled it from across a distance, she would still know that he had come.
Right now, Huo Yusen was leaning too close to her, so close that she could clearly see the drops of water slowly trickling down his chest.
From his chest, the droplets slowly slid to his lower abdomen where his eight-pack abs were, and then progressively downward…
No, she couldn’t look down any further.
Huo Wu suddenly felt a little parched. “Big Brother…”
The moment she spoke, she noticed that her voice was trembling, with a limp and numb tail note.
Huo Yusen looked down at her and suddenly said softly, “They say I’m an old man.”
For some reason, Huo Wu strangely captured grains of grievances from Huo Yusen’s words.
Did he still care about what Gu Chi said just now?
When Huo Wu heard this, she immediately placated, “Big Brother, how could you be old?!” Huo Wu was already plagued with guilt when she didn’t speak up for Huo Yusen earlier. Now that she heard him complaining against Gu Chi’s claim earlier, the guilt in her heart swept like a tide, engulfing her entire being.
Only a piece of softness remained in her heart at the moment.
A softness that sprouted because of Huo Yusen.
Huo Wu raised her eyes to look at Huo Yusen and said seriously, “Big Brother, you are not old at all. You don’t have to care about Gu Chi’s words. You will forever be the best looking in my heart.”
Huo Yusen looked down at her. “Even if I’m old?” There were still some grievances in his voice.
Huo Wu regretted that she didn’t speak up for Huo Yusen a short while ago. If she had spoken for Huo Yusen against Gu Chi earlier, he wouldn’t have felt so wronged now. Huo Wu nodded loyally. “Of course, even if Brother looks old one day, you will also be the most handsome old man.”
A gentle smile finally resurfaced on Huo Yusen’s face. He chuckled, slowly lowered his head, pressed his lips to Huo Wu’s face, and murmured, “So, are you willing to grow old with me?”
The tip of Huo Wu’s heart trembled when she heard his question.
This was the second confession from Huo Yusen today.
His voice was gentle and almost bewitching, compelling her to nod her head.
Deep inside, she wanted to nod and agree with him.
But the next second, she suddenly thought of Huo Yuan.
She also thought of Huo Yuqin.
She could ignore Huo Yuqin, but she couldn’t dismiss Huo Yuan.
Huo Yuan was on Huo Yuqin’s side.
While she and Huo Yusen were on the same side.
If she got together with Huo Yusen, would she make it difficult for him to face Huo Yuan? After all, Huo Yuan was his biological father.
If she stood between Huo Yusen and Huo Yuan, would their father-son relationship change?
Huo Wu couldn’t just think about herself. She had to consider Huo Yusen. Her silence conveyed her hesitation to Huo Yusen.
Huo Yusen rushed to speak before she could reply, “Don’t rush to give me your answer. I’ll give you more time.”
Huo Wu just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief when she heard this. However, Huo Yusen immediately added, “But before that, I want an advance on the rights that belong to your boyfriend.”
Advance boyfriend’s rights?
What is he referring to?
Before Huo Wu could figure out what Huo Yusen meant, his kiss already swept down overwhelmingly.
Slowly, his hand, which was propped up by her ear, spread its five fingers and burrowed into her thick black hair little by little, bringing her wordlessly towards him.
His lips fluttered from her eyelashes to her nose to her cheeks, and then down to her soft lips.
He was like a prisoner who got finally free and devoured her fragrance with abandon. His desire could not be filled, as if no amount of kisses were enough. His lips repeatedly lingered on her lips, nibbling, and licking.
When their kiss ended, both of Huo Wu’s lips turned pink and tender, the image of crushed peach petals, delicate and glistening.
A glimmer of shock dwelled in the depths of her eyes, as well as a misty haze, that made her both lovely and pitiful.
Huo Yusen looked at her, and the knot in his throat rolled.
There was no disgust for him deep in her eyes, nor was there a rejection of that kiss he had just given. So, deep in her heart, she still cared about him, right?
After realizing this, Huo Yusen’s mood, which had been somewhat unhappy after seeing Gu Yan and Gu Chi, finally lightened again.
He chuckled and said in a voice so hoarse it was beyond recognition, “I will collect the other rights that belong to your boyfriend when I come back next time.”
