Chapter 889: 889, he has killed someone [Third Watch]

She looked at the delicate and pretty little face in front of her, which was serene and well-behaved. The lustrous starry eyes blinked gently as she spoke with tenderness, “Not at all, Fu Ziyang, and the heartbreaker, the three of us will always be together.”

“Mm.” All of Fu Ziyang’s worries vanished in his excitement, and he reached out his little hands to hug his mother tightly.

Huo Jinghua felt somewhat stiff in her body as she let him embrace her.

The small body in her arms was very soft and warm, yet also very strange.

She normally didn’t like other people touching her body…

Apart from the heartbreaker and her brother, this was the first time someone had hugged her so willingly.

A strange feeling slowly rose in her heart…

She didn’t know if it was because she was too tired, but her eyes started to hurt a bit…

Huo Jinghua quickly widened her eyes, and it took her a long time to hold back the soreness in them, then she lifted her hand and slowly placed it on the little shoulders in her embrace.

So by the time Fu Xihan got upstairs.

As he pushed open the door, he saw Huo Jinghua and Fu Ziyang lying together on the bed with the starry sky pattern, asleep.

They were even hugging each other…

The two sleeping faces, one large and one small, bore a mysterious similarity.

He stood there and watched for a while, then turned around, stepped out, and closed the door behind him.

In the corridor, Huo Jingshen raised an eyebrow, “What’s up?”

“They’re asleep together.”

“Then wake them up,” Huo Jingshen said. “Dinner is ready downstairs.”

Fu Xihan gave him a sidelong glance, “I thought you’d have grown up a bit after getting married, seems I overestimated you.”

Huo Jingshen: “…”

Fu Xihan then turned to Su Wanwan, “Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work.”

This time it was Su Wanwan’s turn: “……”

She tried to make peace, “It’s too tiring to take such a long flight, and they need to adjust to the jet lag. Let Jinghua sleep a bit longer, we’ll go downstairs to eat first.”

Huo Jingshen raised an eyebrow, “Fine, we’ll go with what your sister-in-law says.”

Su Wanwan, being referred to as “your sister-in-law”: “…”

Fu Xihan chuckled and continued to ignore everyone, heading straight downstairs.

Once his figure was out of sight, Su Wanwan couldn’t help but pinch Huo Jingshen’s arm.

“What are you doing?” Huo Jingshen narrowed his dark eyes, his expression dangerous.

Su Wanwan said, “She’s more than ten years older than me. Don’t keep calling me ‘sister-in-law’ all day long…”

“Get some perspective,” Huo Jingshen said. “You’re my wife, so you naturally are his sister-in-law.”

After saying that, he added, “Don’t worry, he wouldn’t dare to be fierce with you.”

Su Wanwan was stunned, “Is he very fierce?”

Although just by appearance, Fu Xihan indeed didn’t seem like a friendly guy.

But after meeting him today, he had been quite nice, and just now downstairs, he had been exceedingly respectful and courteous to the two elders…

She had even started to see him in a new light.

Huo Jingshen said, “Very fierce.”

Su Wanwan didn’t believe it, “Really?”

“You don’t believe it?”

Su Wanwan nodded, “I think he’s exceptionally handsome, and so young. Is he really three years older than you? I somehow feel you look older than him, like you’re only twenty-five or twenty-six years old…”

Huo Jingshen “…”

His face darkened.

“Moreover, he and your sister look so well matched. Your sister used to be a star, didn’t she? Is he also a star?” As Su Wanwan spoke, she nodded, “It’s a waste not to be a star when he’s that handsome…”

“He has killed people,” Huo Jingshen suddenly said.

“…” Su Wanwan was stunned.

He had… killed people?!

All the romantic and fanciful images of Fu Xihan and Huo Jinghua vanished from her mind…

“And not just one,” Huo Jingshen added another blow.

Su Wanwan: “……”

At lunchtime.

Mrs. Huo could feel a peculiar atmosphere in the dining room.

Mr. Huo and Huo Jingshen were the kind of people who didn’t talk much, and it was even more the case at the dining table where they adhered to the rule of ‘eat, don’t talk’.

After brief contact, Fu Xihan naturally wasn’t much of a talker either.

But even Su Wanwan was so quiet, sitting next to Huo Jingshen, silently eating her meal without looking up.

Fu Qi certainly didn’t need mentioning, as he was always a well-behaved and shy child.

In short, it seemed like everyone had their own thoughts during the meal.

…

In the midst of this, Mrs. Huo suddenly spoke up, “Little Xihan…”

The one called Little Xihan, Fu Xihan: “…”

He looked up, with utmost respect, “Grandma Huo.”

“You understood what your grandfather and I meant just now, right? This time, we’re not planning to let Jinghua leave again, including Ziyang.”

Fu Xihan said nothing.

Su Wanwan found it strange and looked up, only to see Fu Xihan casting a sidelong glance at her husband.

Possibly realizing she had caught his eye, Fu Xihan shifted his gaze to the left, landing on her face.

The man’s handsome features were meticulously crafted, but a distinct, overwhelming indifference hung in the arch of his brows and the depths of his eyes.

But it lasted only a second.

Fu Xihan quickly concealed the emotions in his eyes and answered with a smile, “Grandma Huo, about this matter… I’ll discuss it with Jinghua.”

Su Wanwan quickly lowered her head.

The words Huo Jingshen had said echoed in her ears: he had killed people, and not just one…

It turns out this man was very good at pretending!

Talking about discussing it with Jinghua?

Are you sure you’re going to discuss it?

Huo Jingshen had told her everything, after all. Huo Jinghua had suffered a severe stimulus in the past, resulting in neurological damage, which caused her emotional and intellectual capacities to remain at the level of a five-year-old.

To put it bluntly, she was practically not an adult right now, at best on par with the five-year-old Fu Ziyang…

She might even be less mature and reasonable than Fu Ziyang.

In any case, she was no match for Fu Xihan, who could deceive her easily.

And it seemed that Huo Jinghua trusted him quite a lot, considering a five-year-old girl’s mentality, she must see the people close to her as protectors.

It was an instinct of human younglings, unrelated to the goodness or evil of others.

…

After the meal, Huo Jingshen checked the time and said he had a meeting in the afternoon and needed to go back to the company.

Seeing this, Su Wanwan hurriedly stood up, “I’ll go with you.”

The mother and son upstairs were still sleeping and it wasn’t quite proper for her to be here alone, especially with Fu Xihan around…

Huo Jingshen, pleased, curled his lips and took her small hand as they left.

Once in the car, Su Wanwan couldn’t help but ask a few questions about Huo Jinghua.

Huo Jingshen said, “Do you really want to listen?”

Su Wanwan nodded eagerly, “Why has she become like this? What kind of stimulus did she receive?”

Huo Jingshen gripped the steering wheel tightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, “When Fu Xihan found her, she was tied up in a secret chamber in a basement. By then, she had already lost consciousness, and there was no one else in the chamber, so what exactly happened… remains unknown.”

“Is it possible that she was…” Su Wanwan hesitated.

“No,” Huo Jingshen understood her meaning, “When she was rescued, they took her to the hospital for a check-up straight away, and the doctor said she had no physical injuries. The people who kidnapped her knew Fu Xihan’s character well, so they did not dare to harm her.”

“Then it must have been some other kind of stimulus, right?” Su Wanwan asked.

But what exactly was that stimulus?

Even Huo Jingshen, her own brother, didn’t know, let alone her, an outsider who could rack her brains and still not understand the reason.

…

Halfway to their destination, the phone rang.

Su Wanwan, who was drowsily dozing off, heard him answering the call in a haze.

“Mm… almost there… about 10 more minutes… okay…”

About 10 minutes later.

The car jolted, and Su Wanwan opened her eyes.

Looking out the window, she said, “Just drop me off at the entrance.”

Huo Jingshen, however, drove straight into the compound.

Su Wanwan asked him, “Didn’t you say you have a meeting at two o’clock? Will you make it in time?”

“Mm,” Huo Jingshen uttered, his response terse.

Su Wanwan didn’t probe further.

It wasn’t until the car slowly took a turn and arrived in front of Villa No. 69.

A familiar car was parked by the roadside. With just a glance, Su Wanwan saw the driver’s door open, and a woman in a cheongsam step out from the car.

Slender, with fair skin, her hair done up in a bun.

It was Yan Shunhua, whom she hadn’t seen for several days.

Instinctively, Su Wanwan’s fingers clenched tightly.

Huo Jingshen asked, “Do you want to get out and say hello?”

“…” Su Wanwan did not respond.

Sitting there, she watched through the glass as Yan Shunhua looked up at her. Su Wanwan immediately lowered her head and then picked up her phone, launching a game app.
