บรรณาธิการ: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Qi sneered. "You're quite tactful." However, he frowned again after some time. "Aren't you afraid that Huo Jue won't let you off when the time comes?"
Xia Jin snorted coldly. There was a hint of hatred in her eyes. "I've been following him loyally for five years, yet he's so cold and heartless to me. Although I'm afraid of him, I despise him more!"
Zhou Qi thought for a while, and after a while, he seemed to believe Xia Jin's words. A smile appeared on his face. "Fine, then it's a deal! I'll let you go this time, and you help me get Huo Fei!"
After a pause, Zhou Qi grabbed Xia Jin's hand again. He threatened grimly, "I'll never let you off if you dare to lie to me!"
…
"President Huo, shall we go?"
The atmosphere inside the car was frighteningly low. The driver rested his hands on the steering wheel uneasily and glanced nervously at Huo Jue's expression in the mirror. He did not understand why President Huo did not ask him to set off even when the dinner was already over.
With a grim look on his face, Huo Jue raised his wrist to look at his watch.
After another five minutes had passed, Huo Jue's hand fell on the car door handle. Just as he was about to open the door, he suddenly saw a slim figure appear at the entrance of the hotel out of the corner of his eye.
The slim figure stood upright, and her footsteps were hurried. She strode in an orderly manner, although she was in a rush.
Huo Jue's gaze turned frigid once again. He withdrew his hand and sat in the car, expressionlessly.
All of a sudden, a rattling sound came from outside the car window.
Xia Jin was slamming on the car window fiercely. When she thought of Huo Jue sitting inside, she wished that the window was Huo Jue's face!
Huo Jue glanced at Xia Jin's face. Although she had tidied up, her hair was still a little messy. She looked a bit flustered, as if she had just gone through some hardship.
"Open the door," Huo Jue muttered coldly. The driver immediately unlocked the door, after which Xia Jin pulled open and squeezed into the car.
As soon as she entered, she could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the car was not right.
Xia Jin raised her head and glanced at Huo Jue. She found that his cold and gloomy eyes were also looking at her.
"Get away from me. You're dirty." There was no telling what image Huo Jue had conjured up in his head, but his expression at that moment was one of disgust.
Xia Jin's face was cold. However, she did not say anything, and she sat far away from Huo Jue after closing the car door.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, President Huo." A trace of mockery flashed in her eyes.
Huo Jue sneered, but there was not the slightest hint of laughter in his eyes. "It seems that you're quite capable since you're able to escape from Zhou Qi."
Xia Jin did not notice why Huo Jue had premeditated the time right on the dot. Her attention was focused entirely on the sarcasm in his tone.
He had the nerve to say that?! She would not have been in such a situation if it were not for him!
Xia Jin turned to look at Huo Jue with an insincere smile on her face. She said in a serious tone, "It's all because President Huo has taught me well."
The intensity of her gaze stunned Huo Jue subconsciously.
He had not seen Xia Jin with a temper for many years.
The originally young and immature girl had become a mature and calm woman after five years of honing. Whether it was day or night, Xia Jin was like a perfect robot, without any fluctuations in her emotions.
Even if he tormented her in bed, she would just grit her teeth and endure it silently.
If it weren't for the five-year contract, no woman would have been able to live such a life.
Xia Jin could be described as a perfect contract lover and one that he personally trained.
However, for some reason, Huo Jue felt uneasy watching the vitality and liveliness of this girl fade away slowly.
Xia Jin originally thought that Huo Jue would be displeased if she made such a remark, but Huo Jue remained silent unexpectedly.
Just as she heaved a sigh of relief and thought that the trouble was finally over, Huo Jue suddenly instructed, "Stop the car."
The driver pulled the car over by the roadside, opened the car door nimbly and got out.
Xia Jin had a bad feeling in her heart.
Immediately afterward, Huo Jue grabbed her and lifted her short skirt.
Xia Jin's pupils retracted violently. She struggled to open the car door to escape but was pulled back by Huo Jue.
"President Huo, we are by the side of the road!"
Xia Jin's face reddened with anxiety.
It was not that she had not engaged in inexplicable activities with this man in the car.
But it was too ridiculous to do so in broad daylight by the side of the road!
