Adopting/Raising The Male Lead and The Villain

112

With all that had been going on between him and his son, Zhong Chi would probably never grow to like him, but he was, after all, his son. Zhong Chi would still need to bring him back officially.

That was something that Xu Yunhui didn't know.

Naturally, Zhong Chi wouldn't be sharing that with Xu Yunhui either.

According to Zhong Yuhuan's calculation, now that she has possession of the apartment in London, on that side, Xu Yunhui wouldn't even be able to hold out till Zhong Chi took his son in before she would snap.

Xu Yunhui had been waiting and waiting, as she watched other women try to get close to Zhong Chi with the same mindset as her back in the days and wanted to become the new Mrs. Zhong. Xu Yunhui wouldn't be able to handle that, and neither would Xu Yushan.

At most another 2 – 3 years before they acted on it...

Zhong Yuhuan felt that she was in a pretty good spot right now.

But Huo Chengming frowned deeply.

She had to sacrifice so much to get an apartment, and she turned around and gave it to him...

Huo Chengming clenched his fist and his face was dark.

Why did he want to pamper her?

Why was it that he was so frightened that she'd be hurt in any way?

Because she was the best gift to him.

What she had done for them had well exceeded the vastness of mountains and lakes.

Zhong Yuhuan turned and gave Li Jinyuan a hug, "Work hard, study hard. Keep at it, Li Jinyuan!"

Then she gave Huo Chengming a hug also and said, "And the same goes for you."

"I am going back to my dorm room. You two should get going," said Zhong Yuhuan as she waved at them.

Her hug lasted just a second, but it left behind a hint of aroma from some sort of fruit that lingered around their nose and wouldn't dissipate for a long, long time.

They recalled it now, she seemed to have had strawberries for breakfast that morning.

Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan couldn't help but stare at her face.

She smiled. Even her lips looked like they were reddened by strawberry juice, glowing in a bright color that words could not describe.

"See you two during the holidays!"

"Okay, Huanhuan. See you during the holidays!" Li Jinyuan smiled at her and replied softly.

Huo Chengming clenched his fist and turned away without saying a word, as though one more look and he'd want to bring her with him and keep her nearby.

What Zhong Yuhuan didn't expect was the day she had been anticipated would come so quickly.

She had just finished her class for the day when she received a call from Lang Jinzhi, except it wasn't Lang Jinzhi on the other end of the call, but Secretary Cheng.

"Miss Zhong... something happened at home. You might want to make some time and take a trip back?"

"I'll return tomorrow."

The cellphone seemed to have been taken away by someone, then came Lang Jinzhi's voice, "Come to the Lang's first when you arrived."

"Okay."
