Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 321 - 212: Three Boys, Who is the Devil? (Second Update)

Shi Nian didn’t know how long she had been asleep, but when she woke up, she realized she was still in Huangfu Huazhang’s castle.

Outside the window, the sky was filled with colorful clouds.

Patches of cloudlight, resembling flames, unfurled on the azure sky, stretching all the way to the horizon.

She was still in a dream, still seeing Dad’s smiling face. Dad gently stroked her hair and said to her softly but firmly, "The profession of a police officer symbolizes not only authority but often sacrifice. In this world, there is both justice and evil, and sometimes upholding justice requires a police officer to sacrifice their life. Nian Nian, you are the daughter of a police officer, do not be sad."

"Awake?"

Huangfu Huazhang’s concerned voice, tinged with a hint of hoarseness, reached her ears. Shi Nian quickly turned to look, and it turned out he had been sitting on the chair by the bed the whole time.

The ancient four-poster bed, its sides draped with ivory white curtains, which were tied to the posts with ribbons.

She tried to smile, but her nose felt a bit stuffy: "It’s like a princess bed. When I was a child, I dreamed of having such a big bed. At that time in China, it was rare to find such style beds for sale, so you could only see them in movies and TV."

He raised his long eyebrows slightly: "Now, it’s yours."

Shi Nian was taken aback and quickly waved her hand, saying, "No need. It’s too big, it can’t even fit through the door. It must have been made right here in this room."

He chuckled softly: "I’m not asking you to move it, I’m asking you to move in."

Shi Nian was speechless, for a moment unsure of what to say.

This is his bedroom, and this big bed is also his sleeping place. So what he means is... inviting her to live together.

His eyes lingered quietly on her face.

She blushed with shyness, but beneath the shyness, there was also a trace of silent panic.

He sighed silently and just asked, "Do you want some water? I heard your voice was a bit hoarse when you spoke, maybe because I turned the heating too high."

Shi Nian nodded, "I would like some hot tea."

Without instructing the servants to do it, Huangfu Huazhang personally went to boil the water, made tea, and brought it back.

Shi Nian had already used the few minutes of spare time just now to adjust her mood.

"Where’s Xiong Jie?"

"Sent her home first. I hired a doctor to stay with her. You said you wanted me to hand her over to you, so I didn’t send her to the hospital. We can decide which hospital to send her to after you recover."

Shi Nian nodded and lowered her head to drink the tea, the warmth of the tea relaxing her body.

Her fingertips unconsciously tapped lightly on the teacup.

This time, Huangfu Huazhang did not sit back on the chair but sat by the window.

His gaze swept over, bowing his head to sip some tea and said, "If you have something to say, go ahead."

He carefully placed the teacup on the porcelain saucer, raised his eyes, and quietly looked at her: "I think since we’ve uncovered that period where we depended on each other four years ago, we should have no secrets."

Shi Nian pulled her lips into a slight smile and nodded, "Since you’re willing to talk, I’ll ask: Who exactly was the one who kidnapped me back then?"

They were not only his enemies but also the murderers who took Dad’s life!

She will never let them continue to roam free, she wishes she could bring them to justice right now to comfort Dad’s spirit in heaven.

She tried to suppress her inner urgency and said as calmly as possible, "It’s hard to imagine who would want to oppose you; and to strike at you, they would go to such lengths. That hatred is so intense."

.

His expression remained calm and unruffled, his gaze falling on her face, "Take a guess."

Shi Nian frowned, "Business rivals? Because of the strength of Fude Group, it’s inevitable to make enemies in the business world."

"Heh," Huangfu Huazhang shook his head slightly: "In business, I do have enemies. But modern society has its own rules, I would naturally use business means to deal with business rivals, besides, there’s the law."

Shi Nian bit her lip, looked up at him, and hesitated.

He nodded, in his eyes, though calm, there was already warm encouragement.

"Speak, my deducing beauty. You are Shi Haoran’s daughter, you have inherited your father’s intuition."

Shi Nian took a deep breath, "... Is it someone from the Ford family? In other words, someone who should have been your kin?"

He had said before that he lived in China until he was 20, and during that time, his legs were sometimes good, sometimes bad, so he lived a life isolated from the world and didn’t even attend school formally. But suddenly at 20, he came to M Country and became the chairman of Fude Group.

Merely the age alone made it seem unbelievable.

And his arrival would naturally infringe on the interests of some other members of the Ford family, the result of such intensified family feuds would turn once blood-related kin into the world’s fiercest enemies.
