Chapter Nine: Don’t Go! Stay with Me…

Page 1 of 3

Does a man like Huo Hanshen really need to be fought over for marriage? With his looks, physique, and family background, what kind of woman couldn’t he find?

"Well, I’m married."

Before Lin Feng could even recover from the previous sentence, Huo Hanshen’s words sent his mind into overdrive once again.

Huo Hanshen glanced at the stunned Lin Feng and couldn’t help but smirk slightly. “Married to Xu Xu. The marriage certificate is still in my car, want to see it?”

Lin Feng stared at Huo Hanshen in shock for a long moment, then gave him a thumbs-up and managed to say one word: “Awesome.”

No wonder he’s Lord Huo!

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xu felt as if all her strength had been drained. She weakly leaned against the bed frame and sat down on the carpet, curling up tightly while hugging her knees.

Seeing several bottles of alcohol on the nearby cabinet, she simply opened one and took a long gulp.

Because her mother never bore a son, Xu Jianjun had never taken a liking to her since childhood.

She thought that if she behaved better and worked harder, her father would change his attitude toward her and her mother.

But Xu Jianjun remained dissatisfied.

She always believed it was because she wasn’t good enough until, at the age of twelve, she accidentally discovered that Xu Jianjun had a woman outside the family and even an illegitimate child.

“Mom, I only hid it because I didn’t want you to be hurt. Was I wrong?”

Xu Xu muttered to herself while drinking, tears uncontrollably streaming down her cheeks.

“I just... want a family.”

A complete family.

But her parents were drifting further and further away from her...

Tears fell from her cheeks onto the carpet as Xu Xu gave a bitter smile, then grabbed the bottle and took another long gulp.

Perhaps only alcohol could temporarily make her forget her troubles, her sorrows.

No one knew how long had passed when the villa door slowly opened. Huo Hanshen quietly stepped inside and closed the door behind him.

It was already late at night, and he assumed Xu Xu would be asleep.

But when he turned on the living room night lamp, he saw Xu Xu drunkenly lying on the sofa, many empty bottles scattered on the coffee table.

Huo Hanshen was slightly taken aback. Thinking of what Xu Xu had gone through today, his gaze involuntarily softened with a hint of sympathy.

He gently approached the sofa, reached out to take the empty bottle from Xu Xu’s hand, and placed it on the side table.

“Idiot,” he whispered softly, then bent down to carry Xu Xu back to the bedroom.

“Mmm…”

Xu Xu hummed softly but suddenly reached out and grabbed Huo Hanshen’s tie!

With a gentle tug, Huo Hanshen, bent over, lost his balance and fell onto Xu Xu!

Their bodies pressed closely together. Xu Xu’s breath, heavy with the scent of alcohol, brushed against Huo Hanshen’s face, their lips lightly touching before quickly parting.

Looking into Xu Xu’s dreamy eyes, Huo Hanshen’s Adam’s apple bobbed involuntarily.

“Xu Xu, you…”

Huo Hanshen opened his mouth to say something, but in the next moment, Xu Xu tugged fiercely on his tie and kissed him deeply!

The atmosphere grew increasingly intimate with the kiss, and the once cool living room gradually became warm.

Their clothes became disheveled. Just as they were about to take things further, an unexpected name slipped from Xu Xu’s lips.

“Huo Yunzhe…”

In an instant, the heat enveloping Huo Hanshen seemed to be doused by a bucket of cold water.

He released Xu Xu, his expression becoming ambiguous.

“You’re drunk,” he said coldly, preparing to stand up.

“Don’t go…” Xu Xu grabbed Huo Hanshen’s arm, her eyes glazed as she looked at him. “No… that’s not right…”

She shook her head, trying to open her eyes wider and focus on him.

“No… you’re not that bastard Huo Yunzhe. You’re better looking…”

As she spoke, Xu Xu smiled foolishly.

Originally feeling somewhat uncomfortable, Huo Hanshen’s mood brightened instantly upon hearing those words.

“Then who do you think I am?”

Huo Hanshen stared into Xu Xu’s eyes, his voice low and deep.

“You are…”

Xu Xu’s fair and delicate hand traced Huo Hanshen’s face, half her body leaning against his chest.

“You smell so good…” Xu Xu sniffed at Huo Hanshen’s neck, breaking into a silly grin.

Her face nuzzled his neck, her soft lips brushing against his ear as she spoke.

Ticklish.

Her ears tickled, and so did her heart.

“Hehe, you’re my husband! My husband smells so good!” Xu Xu laughed brightly, as if recalling something. “When I kissed my husband today, I could smell it!”

She leaned closer to Huo Hanshen and whispered, “I’ll tell you a secret, don’t tell anyone! Hehe, my husband’s lips are so soft!”

Huo Hanshen found it hard to hear clearly what Xu Xu was saying. The woman’s breath constantly fanned his ear and neck, her soft body rubbing against him endlessly.

A fiercer heat spread all over him. Huo Hanshen felt burning hot, as if his whole body was about to ignite.

“Xu Xu... do you know what you’re saying?”

His voice was hoarse.

“I do.”

Xu Xu still smiled carefree as she cupped Huo Hanshen’s face with both hands.

Her fair, slender fingers gently traced the contours of his face—from his eyes to his nose, then to his lips.

“We’re married…”

Her fingers finally rested on Huo Hanshen’s thin lips, softly stroking them.

“So, you’re mine now!”

Then Xu Xu kissed Huo Hanshen deeply!

This kiss was more intense than before. Their already disheveled clothes hung loose. Several buttons of Huo Hanshen’s shirt were undone, revealing his strong chest and eight-pack abs.

Xu Xu’s little hands grew restless, caressing Huo Hanshen’s abs while mumbling indistinctly: “Chocolate…”

Huo Hanshen’s lower abdomen tightened, and his breathing grew heavier.

He suddenly carried Xu Xu horizontally, holding her close as his chest rose and fell with heavy breaths.

“You started it.”

The man’s deep voice rumbled as he carried her upstairs, then gently laid her on the soft bed, pressing his body over hers.

The house was filled with the blossoming spring, so much so that even the bright moon outside shyly hid behind the clouds.

...

“Mmm…”

Xu Xu slowly woke up, feeling aches all over her body and a pounding headache.

Looks like she really drank too much last night...

Thinking this, she sat up.

Then she noticed something was off—why was she wearing pajamas?

Holding her head, Xu Xu stiffened. Just then, a sound came from beside her. She hesitantly turned her head and saw… Huo Hanshen, shirtless, leisurely flipping through a magazine.

Noticing Xu Xu’s gaze, Huo Hanshen turned his head and smiled faintly. “Awake?”

“Ah—!”

Xu Xu screamed in fright!

She stared at Huo Hanshen in disbelief, stammering, “Wh-why are you in my bed?”

And not even dressed!

Pervert!

Huo Hanshen was amused by Xu Xu’s reaction. He put down the magazine and leaned slightly closer.

“What are you doing?” Xu Xu tried to back away, but there was nowhere to hide.

“Don’t you think these marks on me look familiar?” Huo Hanshen smiled and pointed to the red marks on his body. “What do you think happened between us?”

Only then did Xu Xu notice the suggestive marks on Huo Hanshen. She was dumbfounded as memories of last night’s drunkenness slowly returned...

“You’re my husband! My husband smells so good...”

“My husband’s lips are so soft...”

“You’re mine now...”

“Chocolate...”

Those were all things she had said to Huo Hanshen!?

Oh my god!

Wasn’t she just a total flirt?

“Ahhh—!”

Xu Xu screamed again, this time out of embarrassment!

She immediately hid under the covers, wrapping them tightly over her head!

Oh my god!

She had no face to see Huo Hanshen again!
