Assistant to My Contracted Husband-Chapter 1744 - 1742: Hero Rescues Beauty, Happy Weekend (5)
"Hmm, you can go now."
"Yes, Mr. Huo, ma’am."
"Doctor, sorry for the trouble."
Hua Nuan politely thanked the doctor, then muttered softly.
"I already told you, I’m fine, it’s just a small issue. I know my body well..."
Huo Zun: "..."
"I didn’t even use any swear words, like damn or shit."
Huo Zun: "..."
The woman’s beautiful eyes were lively and cunning, very charming. Huo Zun curled his lips and spoke with mock irritation.
"One more word of nonsense, and I’ll throw Xiaobai into the oven."
Hua Nuan: "..."
Alright then.
Hua Nuan looked at the man’s stern blue eyes, realizing he was genuinely a bit upset, and lay down directly on the soft big bed, pulling up the corners of her mouth.
She had just had a leg cramp and nearly drowned, she really thought she was in trouble.
Hmm, luckily her luck was not bad.
Hua Nuan’s beautiful eyes flickered with a dazzling light, suppressing the odd feeling in her heart, stealing a glance at the man beside her.
Huo Zun pursed his thin lips and spoke.
"Regarding the investigation into what happened back then, how confident are you?"
"Not sure for now, maybe thirty percent. After all, it’s been a long time, and if the other party wanted to cover up the evidence, they would have already done so. And if they targeted my dad, it must have been someone he trusted. Dad had a great personality, with lots of friends and relatives around, so the target range is also large. Locking onto someone is quite tricky."
Hua Nuan analyzed accurately and added after speaking: "But even if there’s only a thirty percent chance, I want to make it a hundred because the truth of the past is very important to me."
"Hmm."
Huo Zun’s blue eyes flickered briefly, his thin lips pursed.
"So, what do you plan to do?"
"Right now, it’s all about gathering information, but I guess there’s not much we can find. So for now, we should wait."
After speaking, Hua Nuan raised the corners of her mouth in a bright smile and spoke.
"Wait for them to show their true colors. Back then, whoever targeted my dad, it was nothing more than for fame or gain. Now, you are a descendant of the British Royal Family, and me... I’m about to marry you, so if they come knocking, they might be hoping for a small benefit..."
Huo Zun: "..."
This little one indeed deserves to have been by his side for years, very clever.
Huo Zun smiled with satisfaction, watching as the little one had already planned everything, just waiting for the other party to fall into the trap, his blue eyes narrowing.
Actually, the other side had already fallen into the trap.
But Hua Nuan’s mind was not on Hua Dong at all for now.
After all, with her uncle separated from her for years, her desire to maintain familial affection was understandable.
If Hua Nuan discovered the truth, it might be too brutal.
Huo Zun squinted his blue eyes, feeling a sudden reluctance for Hua Nuan to face this brutal fact.
...
Hua Nuan observed the man squinting his blue eyes, evidently pondering, and pursed her cherry lips.
"Huo Zun, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing."
"Being mysterious."
Hua Nuan felt an uncontrollable disdain in her heart, then raised her hand to massage her calf. Cramps happened frequently, so she’d just be more careful next time.
The two of them were quietly alone when suddenly, the butler respectfully knocked at the door from outside.
"Mr. Huo, ma’am, Hua Dong and others are seeking an audience."
Hua Nuan: "..."
Uncle is here again?
Huo Zun squinted his blue eyes, hearing the butler’s words, and couldn’t help but focus his gaze on Hua Nuan. Once Hua Dong revealed his true colors repeatedly, Hua Nuan would soon learn the truth.
"Hmm."
Hua Nuan noticed Huo Zun didn’t respond, waiting instead for her decision, and softly said.
"Butler, please entertain them for a while, Huo Zun and I will be down shortly."
"Certainly, ma’am."
...
Hua Nuan had just finished her bath, still wrapped in a towel, noticing the man’s persistent presence, she softly spoke.
"Huo Zun, I need to change."
