Li Biaoâs body trembled. âIf you want to get engaged to Li Miaoke, you donât need to get custody of Miaoke, right? Youâ¦â Li Biaoâs brows furrowed and then relaxed. After repeating it a few times, he continued, âIf you get custody of Miaoke and then get engaged to Miaoke, your reputation wonât be good.â
Huo Quan paused. He had never thought about this. He just wanted to keep the little girl in his hands. As for other things, he didnât think too much about it.
âThen I donât want custody.â Huo Quan was silent for a moment before he said in a deep voice, âBut from today onwards, Miaoke will live with me.â
Li Biao almost jumped up in fright at Huo Quanâs words. But before he could react, Li Miaoke exploded. She jumped up from Huo Quanâs arms and screamed, âHuo Quan, are you crazy?!â
Huo Quanâs slender and fair fingers gently lifted Li Miaokeâs chin, and a smile hung on his lips. âWhatâs wrong? Is my baby so happy to hear that sheâs going to live with me?â
Li Miaoke shuddered. âHuo Quan, be more normal!â
âHuh?â Huo Quanâs tone was slightly raised, and his deep eyes carried a hint of a smile.
Li Miaoke shrank her neck, and the shock gradually dissipated. She then took a step back without any ambition, and then obediently lowered her head without saying anything. In front of Huo Quan, she was like a poor little rabbit in front of a big bad wolf. She couldnât resist at all!
âPresident Huo, if Miaoke doesnât agreeâ¦â Before Li Biao could finish his words, Huo Quanâs gaze swept over. Li Biao didnât know why, the words that were on the tip of Li Biaoâs tongue suddenly changed. âSince Miaoke agrees, then weâll do as you say, President Huo. Let Miaoke live with you.â
Li Miaoke looked at her father in disbelief. She knew that her father had always hoped that Huo Quan could be together with Li Miaoyu. Logically speaking, he should have stopped him this time, but why did he suddenly..
Before Li Miaoke could figure out the crux of the matter, Huo Quan suddenly stood up and pulled Li Miaoke into his arms. He said in a deep voice, âPresident Li, if thatâs the case, then Iâll accompany Miaoke upstairs to pack her things.â
Li Miaokeâs head was dizzy, and before she could react, she saw Huo Quan walking upstairs with his arm around her.
When Huo Quan and Li Miaoke disappeared from the living room, Li Biao collapsed on the sofa, like a fish that had run aground gasping for air.
âDad, whatâs going on? Didnât you say that Huo Quan came to get engaged to me? Why did it turn out to be Li Miaoke, that b*tch!â Li Miaoyu thought that Huo Quan had left, and after coming out of the room, she began to question Li Biao.
Unfortunately, Li Biaoâs mind wasnât on Li Miaoyu. He looked at his daughter, then thought of Li Miaoke, and his mind spun. It seemed that his eldest daughter had to find someone else⦠As for Li Miaoke, he had to be careful from now on. If Huo Quan really knew something..
âDad, did you hear what I said to you?!â Seeing Li Biao ignore her, Li Miaoyu was extremely displeased.
âIf you ask me now, who am I going to ask?â Li Biao tugged at his tie irritably and said impatiently, âIf youâre displeased, then snatch him back. Who can you blame if youâre not capable yourself?â
Li Miaoyu looked at her father in shock. Ever since she was young, her father had never spoken harshly to her. But this time, he actually said that to her because of that b*tch?
Just then, an angry male voice suddenly came from upstairs, âMiss Li, do you think what I said to you before was a joke?â
On the stairs, while carrying a ladyâs suitcase, he looked at Li Miaoyu with a cold gaze.
The air in the living room seemed to have been sucked dry in an instant, making it difficult for people to breathe. Li Biao suddenly stood up from the sofa and looked at Huo Quan uneasily, âItâs a misunderstanding. Miaoyu, sheâ¦â
Huo Quan shot him a cold look. âDid I talk to you?â
Li Biao shuddered.
At that moment, Li Miaoyu felt as if she was being eyed by a poisonous snake. She wanted to escape, but she couldnât move.
Huo Quan walked towards Li Miaoyu step by step. His powerful and dangerous aura made Li Miaoyuâs heart tremble. âYou, you canât do this to me, Iâ¦â
Li Miaoyu had never seen Huo Quan like this. In her memory, Huo Quan didnât like to talk, and his expression was always cold, but he had never been this terrifying. Li Miaoyu had always thought that Huo Quan had some feelings for her, but now, she realized how ridiculous her thoughts were.
