After Getting Married, I Became The Wife Of The Nation’s CEO - Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Going Home

Under Yun Feng’s puzzled gaze, Huo Ru stammered, “I… I’m a little cold… Can you… sleep with me?”

Although they were in the mountains, this villa had used all the most advanced facilities. The air conditioner could always keep the temperature at the most comfortable temperature of the human body. What a lame excuse.

It was the first step the little animal took toward him.

Yun Feng pretended to be calm and agreed, afraid that he would scare her away again.

Huo Ru and Yun Feng lay on one side of the bed, while Huo Ru inadvertently glanced at the man’s seat several times under the moonlight. This was the first time the two of them had slept together when they were awake. It was very strange, but she did not feel any disgust.

She could only blame the starlight tonight for being too warm, making her lose her mind for a moment.

Huo Ru, who thought she would lose sleep, fell asleep in a few minutes. When she fell asleep, she even went overboard and crawled into Yun Feng’s arms. On the other hand, Yun Feng did not dare to move. He opened his eyes and was awake for half the night.

The next morning, Huo Ru saw the dark circles under Yun Feng’s eyes and blamed herself. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know you couldn’t sleep with others. It’s all my fault.”

“No, it has nothing to do with you. It’s just that I haven’t been back for a long time and I can’t get used to my bed.” How could Yun Feng admit it? He hoped to have more opportunities like this.

They washed up. This time, they had come at the last minute, so there was nothing in the fridge. They could only drive back for dinner, and they bumped into Li Ma, who was about to leave early.

Seeing Li Ma’s surprised expression, Huo Ru and Yun Feng looked at each other with tacit smiles.

This was the first time Huo Ru had gone to look at the stars in the middle of the night. Even when she was a teenager, she had never done such a crazy and bold thing. She was extremely happy, as if all the bad things in the past could be thrown to the back of her mind.

After breakfast, Yun Feng went to work with eyes that showed that he did not sleep enough.

Huo Ru’s phone interrupted her momentary happiness. It was her stepmother again.

After her long conversation with her father yesterday, although she still had no feelings for her stepmother, she no longer hated her as much as before.

“What is it?”

“Ru Ru, your father suddenly fainted today! Come back and take a look!”

“What?!” Huo Ru’s eyes widened as he hurriedly said, “Wait, I’ll be right back!”

She didn’t have time to inform anyone before she took a taxi to the Huo residence. Along the way, her father’s face echoed in her mind. He wasn’t an outstanding father, but he had done his best to ensure that she grew up healthy. If something really happened to him, their last call was actually an argument.

Huo Ru sat in the backseat, her tears flowing uncontrollably. She had already thought about going home in a few days to reconcile with her father. Why did fate have to tease her like this? If there was really something wrong with her father, she would blame herself for the rest of her life.

The driver seemed to be able to tell that she was anxious so he drove very quickly along the way. Before long, the car stopped at the Huo residence.

As soon as they entered, Huo Ru felt a different aura.

There were usually many servants taking care of the Huo family. Today, not a single one of them had been seen since she entered. It was obvious how serious her father’s illness was!

She walked through the magnificent living room and went up to her father’s bedroom on the second floor. Jiang Li was sitting at the head of the bed, looking very sad. Only her stepmother Jiang Li and her father, who was lying on the bed, were in the room.

“How’s my father?!” She walked over in a panic, not noticing that Jiang Li had secretly locked the door.

Huo Ru walked over to take a look, Huo Ci’s eyes were open and her face was flushed. He didn’t look like he was sick at all.

Only then did she realize that she had been deceived! Nothing had happened to him!

“You lied to me?!” Her eyes were burning as she questioned Jiang Li.

“I was the one who asked her to,” Huo Ci said calmly as he put on his shoes and stood up. “Otherwise, when will you know to come home and visit me?”

“So you lied to me?!” Huo Ru felt like a fool and a complete joke.

“Why? Are you questioning your father?” Huo Ru changed the loving tone on the phone. “Look at yourself. What kind of person are you? You kissed a man you didn’t know in public! You’ve embarrassed our family.”

“I’m whatever I want to be!” Huo Ru retorted stubbornly. “It’s my freedom to kiss whoever I want. Let me tell you, not only do I want to kiss him, I want to marry him!”

Huo Ci choked on her words, but he didn’t take them seriously, thinking that she was just spouting nonsense in her anger.
