Chapter 16: Young Master Huo’s Jealousy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Boom! Gu Qingcheng’s mind went blank.

She stared at Huo Sicheng with her eyes wide open, feeling his kiss on her lips.

His breath lingered on the tip of her nose. His domineering kiss made her tremble.

Huo Sicheng…

Actually kissed her?

The atmosphere in the room was ambiguous, and the temperature instantly rose.

Knock, knock. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

The knocking made Gu Qingcheng regain her senses. The lack of oxygen made her dizzy, and she could feel Huo Sicheng’s kiss even more clearly. She couldn’t help but move.

In an instant, she felt Huo Sicheng’s body stiffen. His breathing suddenly became heavy, and his kisses were even more overbearing and forceful than before.

She was upset that she didn’t push Huo Sicheng away when he kissed her, and she knew that her actions were provoking Huo Sicheng.

If their kiss continued like this, it would be awkward if someone pushed the door open and bumped into them kissing.

At that moment, her heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of her throat. Shocked and embarrassed, she quickly reached out to push Huo Sicheng away, only to find that her arms were so soft that she had no strength. Pushing him away was more like an invitation for him to continue.

Huo Sicheng didn’t want to let go of Gu Qingcheng, but the panic in her eyes made him let go of her despite his reluctance.

Gu Qingcheng took deep breaths after Huo Sicheng released her. She felt as if she was in a furnace, and she was sweating profusely. She was so hot that she knew she would be burned if she stayed in front of Huo Sicheng.

“I-I’ll make a move first…” She didn’t even dare to look at Huo Sicheng. Her legs were weak, and she staggered to the door in a panic.

The moment she left Huo Sicheng’s office, she felt alive.

“Gu…” Chu Yu stood at the door and looked at Gu Qingcheng, who was blushing and panting. Then he remembered President Huo’s warning and quickly changed his words. “Madam, what’s wrong?”

It would have been better if Chu Yu hadn’t opened his mouth, but the moment he did, Gu Qingcheng was reminded of what had just happened. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.

“What does it have to do with you?” She glared at Chu Yu fiercely and stomped her feet angrily. She then left in a hurry.

Chu Yu shivered in fear at Gu Qingcheng’s glare.

After all, Gu Qingcheng’s presence in Huo Corporation was never a good thing.

But why did he feel that Gu Qingcheng was shy?

No! This woman was not only a shrew, but her skin was thicker than a city wall. How could she be shy?! She must have been humiliated by President Huo to leave in such a rage.

This was the first time he had seen Gu Qingcheng being humiliated in front of Mr. Huo. This meant that Mr. Huo’s life was not in danger, and it also made him feel very relieved after being insulted so many times in front of her.

“I hope President Huo can keep up the good work and teach Gu Qingcheng a lesson.” He said happily.

When Chu Yu composed himself and walked into the office respectfully, he immediately felt President Huo’s cold and sharp gaze. He swallowed hard.

Huo Sicheng’s handsome face was as cold as ice as he stared at Chu Yu.

President Huo’s cold gaze sent chills down Chu Yu’s spine. He braced himself and said carefully, “President Huo, what happened?”

Huo Sicheng did not say a word as he approached Chu Yu. His eyes were gloomy, like a mountain that pressed down on Chu Yu.

Chu Yu only felt President Huo’s aura pressing down on him like Mount Tai, making the back of his neck go cold, and his entire body tremble in fear.

“President Huo…”

“Your hands are really beautiful.” Huo Sicheng looked straight at Chu Yu.

Chu Yu was stunned. He looked down at his hand and realized that his hand was indeed beautiful.

But why did President Huo praise his hands out of nowhere?

Moreover, the atmosphere in the room made him feel that something was wrong. He was even more puzzled as to why President Huo would say such strange words to him.

“Did you knock on the door with your right hand just now?” Huo Sicheng stared at Chu Yu and asked, “Or left hand?”

Chu Yu looked at Mr. Huo in a daze. Had Mr. Huo eaten the food that Gu Qingcheng sent over? Was his brain damaged?

Why would he praise his hand for no reason and then ask him which hand knocked on the door?

“President Huo, I knocked on the door with my left hand.” Although he was puzzled, he still answered respectfully and asked, “President Huo, why are you asking me this?”

After Chu Yu answered, Huo Sicheng, who had been staring at Chu Yu, suddenly grabbed Chu Yu’s left wrist and tightened his grip…

In an instant, Chu Yu’s face was filled with pain. His wrist was about to be broken by President Huo, and it was so painful that he sucked in a cold breath.

He looked at President Huo and saw that President Huo was looking at his left hand with eyes that were about to spit fire. He was so scared that his heart was trembling.

At this moment, his sense of crisis made him immediately understand that he had used this hand to knock on the door and disturbed President Huo, deeply angering him.

It seemed that he had made a mistake at the door. Gu Qingcheng wasn’t blushing because of Mr. Huo’s humiliation. She was blushing because of embarrassment.

However, he was also helpless. Gu Qingcheng had brought a bunch of food that President Huo couldn’t eat. He was worried about President Huo’s health, so he took the time to deliver the medicine to President Huo. He really didn’t mean to disturb President Huo.

With a pale face, he explained pitifully, “P-President Huo… You have stomach problems, can’t eat spicy food, and are allergic to prawns. Every dish that Madam brought is spicy, and there are two dishes with prawns…”

Huo Sicheng glanced at Chu Yu, who looked like he was in pain, with his slanted eyes. He then shook off Chu Yu’s wrist.

“In the future, when I’m alone with Madam, don’t bother us no matter what.” He ordered in a displeased voice.

Chu Yu felt the anger emanating from President Huo. He was so scared that his entire body trembled. He also grimaced in pain and replied, “Yes, President Huo.”

It was already good enough that President Huo didn’t break his wrist this time. Next time, President Huo would definitely remove his arm. How could he dare to make a second mistake?

He saw that the back of President Huo’s hand was already red from the allergic reaction. He endured the pain and hurriedly gave some water and allergy medicine to President Huo for his stomach.

“President Huo, take your medicine first.”

When Huo Sicheng took his first bite of spicy food, his stomach was already acting up. Not to mention that Gu Qingcheng had given him prawns which he was allergic to.

He endured the pain in his stomach and the stinging and itching all over his body caused by the shrimp allergy just so he wouldn’t ruin Gu Qingcheng’s mood.

After all, he used to be her sworn enemy. It was normal for her not to know that he could not eat spicy food and prawns. Besides, it was her first time cooking for him. He would rather suffer than let her worry about her body and blame herself for cooking spicy dishes he could not eat.

The thought of how Gu Qingcheng had gently put food into his bowl during the meal made his heart melt.

After taking the medicine, he looked at Chu Yu, who was about to leave, and said in a deep voice, “Give all the information about KC Group to Zhao Corporation.”

Chu Yu was shocked. He couldn’t believe that President Huo would abandon the business that he wanted.

In particular, the KC Oil Group was a business that President Huo had been busy with recently. How could he reveal it to Zhao Corporation with such a sentence?

Although he was full of questions, he still answered respectfully. Since President Huo said so, there must be a reason.

Gu Qingcheng’s image appeared in Huo Sicheng’s mind, and he couldn’t help but caress his lips. His eyes were as gentle as a lamb’s, and he could still smell Gu Qingcheng’s sweet scent on his lips.

The thought of Gu Qingcheng’s beautiful face in his arms made his breathing go wild. He felt a burning sensation all over his body. He tugged at his tie, but it was still so hot that he felt uncomfortable.

“Qingcheng, you’re really a seductive little vixen…” His voice was low and hoarse with love as he murmured, “Chu Yu, do not hesitate to customize a gift. You must get it before five in the evening.”

Chu Yu walked to the door. He didn’t hear Huo Sicheng’s murmur. He only heard President Huo’s instructions and stopped in his tracks.

“May I know what kind of gift, President Huo?” He asked respectfully, “Who do you want to give it to?”
