The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More Novel - Chapter 74
Chapter 74: A Heart-Capturing Moment
Regardless of whether Mo Zhu agreed or not, Huo Xuan had already agreed for the girl in his heart. He stood up and returned to the room. The man tidied up the test questions he had used for the last tutoring session and he had already started preparing for their alone time at night.
After dinner that night, Huo Xuan sent a message to Mo Zhu on time, asking her to come to his room to do practice questions.
The girl picked up her phone unhappily and was about to reject him when she suddenly thought that perhaps she could take this opportunity to retrieve the information on Huo Xuan’s computer. Without any hesitation, Mo Zhu quickly stood up and walked towards Huo Xuan’s room.
After Huo Xuan opened the door, he arranged for Mo Zhu to sit down at the study table and patted a set of ‘Golden Rankings’ exam questions that was dozens of pages thick in front of the girl. He lowered his head and said seriously, “These are all high-quality exercises I secretly transferred from various universities. You have to cherish and do them seriously!”
After a pause, the man added, “If you meet something you don’t know how to do, don’t flip through your books first. If you really can’t remember, you can consider asking me.”
Mo Zhu followed Huo Xuan’s words and lowered her head to look at the exercise questions that were really hard to obtain. The thick stack made her a little depressed. She scratched her head and said straightforwardly,
“Why don’t you just explain every question to me? If you want me to do it myself, I won’t be able to come out with anything.”
Huo Xuan was speechless by Mo Zhu’s ignorance. He turned his body and sat beside the girl as he said helplessly, “Then let me start with the multiple choice questions. Let’s go through the fixed question format and knowledge points before you try to do a few exercises.”
Nodding, Mo Zhu saw the man hold the pen seriously and start explaining the bits and pieces of the information and knowledge to her one by one.
Mo Zhu’s shadow was clearly reflected by the light from the hanging lamp in the room on the window. From the corner of her eye, she looked at the shadows of the two people which were intertwined together and could not bear to leave each other. Her heart instantly skipped a beat, and a blush instantly crept onto her face.
Not daring to take another look, Mo Zhu lowered her head and silently stared at the man’s right hand that was writing the algorithms continuously. However, Huo Xuan’s hands were also beautiful and slender. Not only that, the strokes he wrote were also firm and powerful.
Mo Zhu suddenly patted her head and forced herself to come back to her senses. However, this sudden movement gave Huo Xuan a fright. Thinking that the young lady didn’t understand the points he was talking about as he was doing it too quickly, he leaned over and gently touched the spot where the girl had patted herself.
“Blame me for not taking into account that your foundation is not good and spoke too quickly. However, even if you don’t understand it, you don’t have to beat yourself up like this. If you have any questions, just ask them. There’s no one else here. I’m your personal tutor.”
Huo Xuan was handsome, and his deep black eyes were fixed on the girl. It was as if there was a whirlpool sucking Mo Zhu into it.
Mo Zhu stared at the man for a long time and said with a smile, “I have to admit that when you’re serious, you’re quite handsome.”
“Why? Are you thinking about chasing me because I mesmerized you?” Huo Xuan propped his head on his left hand and looked at Mo Zhu.
The girl seemed to be amused by Huo Xuan. She glanced at the man and teased, “Even if I don’t chase you, aren’t you mine too?”
“Yes, yes, yes. If I’m yours, I’m yours. I’m all yours.” Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu exchanged looks, their eyes filled with smiles.
After speaking, Huo Xuan explained half of the papers to Mo Zhu in extreme detail. Then, Xu Huan called to ask the man to help him close the contract he was about to sign.
After giving Mo Zhu a few simple instructions, Huo Xuan rushed to the study to get a computer and start work.
Once Huo Xuan left the room, Mo Zhu immediately caught a glimpse of the laptop on the table that was under a few sets of test questions.
She quickly took out the computer and looked at it. This laptop was indeed the one that she had tampered with the last time.
She held her breath and listened for any abnormal movements in the corridor. When Mo Zhu turned on the computer, she did it really fast and smoothly. Before long, lines of codes that were not understandable appeared on the screen. Then, the secret documents in Huo Xuan’s computer were opened by the girl one by one.
Mo Zhu only took a cursory glance at the Huo family’s business secrets. She did not care about the Huo family’s business and profits. She only cared if the Huo family had anything to do with Feng Yu’s inexplicable disappearance.
She quickly browsed through the documents saved in Huo Xuan’s computer. Just as Mo Zhu was about to give up, sighing that she couldn’t find the relevant information, an unnamed blank folder caught her attention.
An inexplicable nervousness suddenly welled up in her heart. The girl opened the document folder with trembling hands. Inside was a document named Feng Yu and a few photos of young boys.
She suddenly stood up and opened the photo with trembling hands. The moment the photo was enlarged, Mo Zhu’s breathing was so agitated it was as if it was going to stop.
In front of her was the smile that she was most familiar with, one that only belonged to Feng Yu. She controlled the mouse to scan through them one by one. Besides one photo that had the boy and Huo Xuan, she did not recognize a single person who appeared in the other photos.
Mo Zhu took a deep breath and turned her gaze to the document labeled with Feng Yu’s name. Her intuition told her that the answer she had been searching for all these years was about to surface.
