Chapter 1883: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (87)

Under the bluish-white smoke was a handsome face that looked like it had been sculpted. When the man looked at her, his long eyes were half-shut, and he had a lazy and mischievous smile on his face.

Who else could it be but Huo Heng?

Xia Cha was surprised. She had never given him a key. How did he get in?

Xia Cha glanced at the door lock. It was intact.

Seemingly seeing through Xia Cha’s doubts, the man raised his eyebrows and said, “I used your key to get a matching one.”

Xia Cha glared at him, “When did you match them? Why didn’t I know?”

“If you knew, you wouldn’t be surprised to see me.”

It was clearly a shock.

This detestable man said it so matter-of-factly.

Huo Heng put out his cigarette and looked at her lazily.

He was wearing a black V-neck sweater with his sleeves rolled up slightly, revealing his strong and muscular forearms.

His soft short hair was not pushed up like usual. It was slightly messy and covered his forehead, making his eyes look even longer and narrower. One look and one would drown in them.

Xia Cha changed into her slippers and sniffed.

She realized that apart from the faint smell of tobacco, there was also the smell of alcohol.

Xia Cha looked at the man on the sofa and realized that his eyes were bloodshot.

She frowned. “Did you drink?”

Huo Heng nodded.

“I’ll make you a cup of honey water.”

Huo Heng watched Xia Cha’s slender figure enter the kitchen.

The apartment she lived in was not big. It had one bedroom, one living room, and the kitchen was small. He could see everything at a glance.

Huo Heng got up from the sofa and walked to the kitchen.

Xia Cha was making honey for him when she felt something tighten around her waist.

The man hugged her from behind.

“Stop it.”

The man did not seem to have heard her words. His thin and firm chin rested on the top of her head, smelling the faint fragrance in her hair. “I’m not fooling around. Why can’t I hug my girlfriend?”

“I’m making you honey water.”

“I didn’t drink too much.”

Usually, people who drank too much would not admit that they drank too much.

Xia Cha could not be bothered with him. After struggling for a while and failing to break free, she continued with her work.

After making the drink, she brought it to the man behind her. “Drink it quickly.”

“Feed me.”

Xia Cha glared at him. “You’re not a child.”

Huo Heng’s tall body took two steps forward. Xia Cha had no choice but to step back until her back was against the countertop. The man’s slender hands were placed on the countertop behind her.

She was trapped between his chest and the countertop.

He lowered his head and looked at her. His slightly bloodshot eyes were bright and charming. Xia Cha’s heart pounded.

“Don’t you know how dangerous your amorous eyes are?” Xia Cha had no choice but to bring the cup to his mouth.

There was a smile in Huo Heng’s eyes. That smile was as devilish as it could be.

The more time she spent with him, the more she realized that he was really handsome to the core.

After feeding him the honey water, Xia Cha remembered that she still had to edit the lyrics. She pushed the man away and said, “Go and rest on the sofa. I still have work to do.”

The man answered obediently.

Huo Heng walked to the sofa and lay down. Xia Cha took out the lyrics and sat on the carpet beside the sofa.

After a while, the man got down from the sofa and slept beside her. He rested his head on her lap.

Xia Cha did not have the heart to chase him to the sofa.

After he lay down, he did not close his eyes. Instead, he looked at her, who was focused on her work.

She worked, her mind free of all distractions, humming softly as she worked on modifications.

Half an hour later.

Xia Cha felt her neck aching. She rubbed it and looked down at the man.

She had thought that he was asleep, but he opened his eyes the moment she saw him.

“Why aren’t you asleep yet?”

Huo Heng held her hand and kissed the back of it. “Silly girl.”

Xia Cha did not understand what he meant. She retracted her hand and punched his shoulder. “How am I sillly?”

‘Yes. I’ve been letting him lean on me for so long that my legs have gone numb. Of course I’m silly.’

Huo Heng seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He sat up, took the lyrics from her hands and carried her up.

“Huo Heng, what are you doing?”

He didn’t respond. “Silly girl,” he repeated.

…

The next day.

The gentle morning light shone through the layers of curtains. Xia Cha slowly opened her thick and long eyelashes.

She seemed to have thought of something and looked to her side.

It was empty.

Just as Xia Cha was distracted, the bathroom door was opened.

A man in a white shirt and black trousers walked out. His sleeves were rolled up twice, revealing his strong arms and luxurious watch. The fabric of his clothes was ironed meticulously. Compared to last night’s indolence and seductiveness, he looked more like a noble son from a prestigious family.

Xia Cha thought that she had been tricked by him. She grabbed the pillow and threw it at him.

Huo Heng took the pillow and put it aside. He walked over, slightly bowed his tall body, and said with a gentle smile in his eyes, “I’ll go for a meeting in the morning and come over to accompany you in the afternoon.”

“No!”

Not wanting him to get too close, she lifted her hand to push his face away.

But soon, he held her hand.

He smiled and kissed her fingertips.

“I don’t want to see you today.”

“When I come over later, I’ll wear a mask and cover myself.”

Xia Cha ignored him and covered her head with the blanket.

Huo Heng smiled. “I’ll get Jian Ming to bring breakfast over later.”

She ignored him!

After Huo Heng left the apartment, Xia Cha lifted the blanket.

She stared blankly at the ceiling.

She was a little stunned and confused, but there was also an indescribable sweetness.

…

Huo Heng went to the Huo Corporation for a meeting.

This time, Old Master Huo, the shareholders and higher-ups of the Huo Corporation were all present.

Fourth Master Huo passed the development plan of the E20 project to Old Master Huo, who was quite satisfied.

Old Master Huo praised Fourth Master Huo.

Halfway through the meeting, Fourth Master Huo’s secretary suddenly came in and whispered something into his ear.

“What?” Fourth Master Huo, who had always been calm and collected, suddenly had a change in expression.

At this moment, the conference room door was pushed open.

Huo Jie ran in hurriedly. “Fourth Brother, it’s over. It’s over.”

Fourth Master Huo glanced at Huo Jie and said in a low voice, “Let’s talk in my office.”

Just as Fourth Master Huo finished speaking, Huo Heng said, “Old Master, I just received a message. I heard that the government plans to build roads on E20, so we can’t conduct commercial development.”

Old Master Huo’s expression darkened. “It’s such an important matter. Fourth Brother, why didn’t you ask around beforehand?”

“Father, there was no such news back then.”

As soon as Fourth Master Huo finished speaking, Huo Jie rushed in front of Huo Heng and grabbed his collar. He looked at Huo Heng sharply. “It’s you. You deliberately tricked us, right?”
