Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering - Chapter 1800

Chapter 1800: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (4)

Xia Tang walked out of the washroom.

The words of the two service staff were still echoing in her mind.

Huo Ze was seriously ill?

Thinking of his handsome face that had indeed lost a lot of weight, Xia Tang frowned.

After passing by a corridor, the door of one of the private rooms was opened.

The man who opened the door was wearing a white shirt, looking handsome and noble. Their eyes met and they were both stunned.

But Xia Tang reacted quickly and smiled at the man. “Third Master.”

Huo Third Master nodded and walked out, closing the door. “You’re here for dinner with your friends?”

Xia Tang hummed.

Huo Third Master saw that she was a little distracted and did not look too good. He asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”

“There’s something I want to ask Third Master.”

Huo Third Master brought Xia Tang to the outdoor garden of the hotel. His tall body leaned against the railing and he lowered his head to light a cigarette, his eyes narrowed. “What’s the matter?”

“It’s about Huo Ze.”

Huo Third Master tightened his hold on the cigarette. He had thought that she would ask him about the blind date.

She was the daughter of a rich family and was good in all aspects, but he was not interested.

Looking at the woman standing beside him, her face was slightly pale, but it was clearly not for him.

Huo Third Master took a puff of the cigarette and slowly exhaled a white smoke ring. He sighed softly. “What do you want to ask about Ah Ze?”

Xia Tang knew that it was unfair to Huo Third Master to ask about Huo Ze in front of him.

However, the Huo family was a rich and powerful family. If they did not disclose anything to outsiders, it would be hard for ordinary people to find out.

Although she did not like Huo Ze and only wanted to draw the line between them, it was common for women to be nostalgic. After all, she had been entangled with him before.

If she was indifferent when he was seriously ill, she would be too cold-hearted.

“I saw that he had lost quite a bit of weight the last time. Did something happen to his body?”

Huo Third Master’s expression turned slightly dark and he was silent for a long time. The cigarette ash on his fingertips was a little long and was about to fall to the back of his hand. He ignored it and just when Xia Tang thought that he would not say anything to her, he said in a low voice, “Late stage lung cancer.”

Hearing these words, Xia Tang lost her balance and almost fell.

Huo Third Master reached over quickly and held Xia Tang’s waist. He only let go of her after she stabilized herself. “We’re all very sad.”

Xia Tang leaned against the railing, her hands clenched tightly as she stared at the bustling city in the dark. She felt a lump in her throat and tears filled her eyes.

After a while, she said hoarsely, “How can that be? He’s still so young.”

Huo Third Master held Xia Tang’s slightly trembling shoulders. “Are you going to the hospital to see him?”

Xia Tang nodded. “Mm.”

The two of them did not notice a pair of eyes staring at them from the dark.

…

That night, Xia Tang went to the Huo family’s private hospital.

She took the pass Huo Third Master had given her and went to Huo Ze’s ward.

It was already late at night and the corridor was quiet. There was only a faint yellow light in the ward.

Xia Tang stood in front of the glass window, looking at the slender figure on the bed.

It was too dark for her to see him clearly.

Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the door and walked in.

Xia Tang walked to the bed and looked at the man sleeping on it.

He seemed to have lost some weight and there was a faint shadow under his sunken eyes.

Xia Tang could not help but think of the first time she had seen him. Putting his personality aside, he was definitely charming in terms of appearance.

A handsome masculine but effeminate face, glass-like upturned eyes, a tall nose bridge, and sexy red lips… It seemed like he was wild and uninhibited amongst the frivolous people, but his heart was like an iron wall that was hard to approach…

He was wild and energetic. It was really hard to imagine that he would be lying here so sickly.

Xia Tang stayed for a while before she turned around, preparing to leave.

But she had just taken a step when her slender wrist was grabbed by someone.

Xia Tang turned back and looked at the man who had woken up. Her thick and long eyelashes fluttered slightly.

“You’re awake?”

The man hummed hoarsely and let go of her wrist. He sat up and leaned against the head of the bed.

For her to appear here, she must have found out about his condition.

His eyes met hers and a self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips. “Do I look ugly like this?”

Xia Tang pursed her lips. “No.”

Looking at her fluttering eyelashes, a teasing look appeared in his eyes. “Do you pity me?”

Xia Tang did not go against him like she did in the past. She bit her lip. “I’m very surprised, Huo Ze. Although I hated you before, I never thought of letting you die.”

“The second time I experienced the pain of living a life worse than death, do you know what price I paid? I lost the most important thing to a woman.”

“A person like me can only stay single for life.”

Huo Ze’s body trembled.

“Tang Tang…”

Before Huo Ze could finish, Xia Tang grabbed his slender hand. “I said it because I want to tell you that I will never be able to enter the Huo family in my life. Even if you leave and I live alone in this world, I will only be living alone. I will not become someone else’s wife or have children.”

Huo Ze closed his eyes, his voice hoarse. “I’m sorry.”

“You don’t have to apologize to me.” Xia Tang looked down, resting her forehead on his palm. “What other regrets do you have? I can satisfy your needs. Tell me and I might be able to help you.”

Huo Ze caressed Xia Tang’s fair and clean face. “Can you accompany me to a snow mountain? I’ve wanted to see snow since I was young, but living here, seeing snow has become an extravagant hope.”

In the last moments of his life, he wanted to watch snowfall with the person he liked.

Xia Tang nodded. “Okay, let me know when you’re ready.”

…

Huo Ze set the date for the weekend.

He had already asked his assistant to buy plane tickets to the snow mountain.

After the two of them got off the plane, Huo Ze rented an SUV and the two of them bought a tent, and headed to the snow mountain.

Huo Ze drove the car himself but Xia Tang was worried about his health. “Why don’t I drive it?”

Huo Ze smiled at Xia Tang. “Don’t worry. I probably won’t die in the next few days.”

“It’s not funny at all.” Xia Tang turned her head and looked out of the window.

Huo Ze looked at Xia Tang’s serious expression and freed up a hand that was holding the steering wheel. He caressed Xia Tang’s head. “You were always like a hedgehog in the past. You would always try to rebuke me, or dress up in a way that I didn’t like you to anger me.”

He looked at her with a trace of doting in his eyes. “But now, you’re as obedient as a kitten. This illness is worth it.”
